about ''early to rise,' is committing sin
against his own soul. There is not one
man in ten thousand who can afford to do

the stuff written about great men who
slept only three or four hours a night is
apocryphal. They have been put upon

DR.. Tholu"k was taking his accustomed
walk. with German student on one side
of him. and the then youthful editor on the
other, when. ;ii:er few general remarks,
Tholuck asked the German student what
he had been doing that morning. In reply,
he said he had heart. lecture from ten to
eleven.
''What were--you doing before..ten:' ask
ed the doctor.
The young man. ..hesitated, and then con-
f,ssed he had done nothing.
..Well. SIR" added DIR. Tholuck. ''if this
is all you have done to-day. will not now
take any mere of your valuable time. Good
tlav, SIR
The student withdrew, covered with
shame. 1t afterward appeared that the
young had--been.spending his time in
every thing but study, and that DIR. Tho
luck had vainly endeavored by kindlier
methods to lead him to adopt different
course of life; and it was his thought that
by a severe rebuke, and thus startling the
Young man out of his indifference, lie
might prepare the way for that reforma-
tion in conduct and in character which
it was in DR.. Tholuck's heart to secure

and he made it point to ask for docile

was being hitched up. she reared up and
acted very nervous, and the proprietor ex-
claimed:
"You needn't be bit afeared Of her.
She's simply little off to-day"
The citizen got into the carriage, was
whirled arOnnd the corner, and nothing
more was seen of him for two hours. At
the end of that time he came imping back,
and asked:

A Puzzled Monkey.

The St, Louis Globe Democrat says that
there was a monkey at the fair grounds that
by some amusing peculiarities of DISPOSE
ton and manner became an immediate IA
vorite with every spectator. A gentleman
who was among the crowd that generally
surrounded the monkey house when the
grounds were open, happened to have a
small pocket mirror in his hands, and just
for sport passed it in through the grating
to the favorite. The monkeys behavior
on seeing his face reflected in the glass was
amusing in the extreme, and kept the peo-
ple In q roar of laughter for nearly an
hour. The monkey, Of course. failed to
recognize the reflection Of himself in the
glass, and took it for another monkey, ant
his anxiety to get hold OF that monkey
was what made the fun. He would look
behind the glass for it, and feel for 1t In
! such a comical way whilst he was looking
in the glass that one could not help laugh
inc. While the glass was close to his eye
he gradually bent over, casually. and, no

He felt for it, grabbed at it, and tried a

THE CHINESE ScARE.-The UHited
States Consul at Hong Kong reports that
5lS4 less Chinese left that port for the Uni
ted States during the year 1876 than the
previous year, and of the number only 81
were women. And that is what the fright
full "inundation of Mongolians" with which
we have been threatened, according to GER
tain agitators on the Pacific coast, amounts
tol At this rate the Chinese question will
not only settle itself, but will do so by the
gradual dwinding away of the Chinese
among us. Those people, stolid as they
have been said 10 be, have no idea of COM
ing several thousands of miles to encounter
a sayagery of treatment infinitely worse
than any of the evils of poverty they are
exposed TO at home. We trust, however,
in spite of the discredtable admissions of
the report of the Congressional Committee
on this subject, that the condition of the
Chinese in this country is gradually be-
coming more tolerable. There are now, it
is said, about $500 of them in the Mission
evening schools of California, and some
5000 of them in the Sabbath schools. We
have never seen any reason to doubt that,
with judicious effort and patience, the
greater part of our Chinese population, es-
pecially the young, could be brought un-
der moral influences of immense benefit to
them, whether they stay in the country or
return home. Certainly, it is duty to
make the attempt, and it would go farther
than all other things to dispose of whatever
danger or evil has been apprehended from
the Chinese visitation.-BoS Journal.
