Easy Religion.

1t is not to be denied or overlooked that
there is prevailing tendency in many of
our popular and fashionable city and coun-
try churches, to favor and advocate loose
and easy-going religion among Christians,
as we'll as among ministers, especially
among young christians.
Three months ago, one of the most in
telligent, clear-headed professional men in
the country, not himself professor of re-
Hglon, said, in conversation on the i'm
portance and reality of religion eff there
is anything in this world that tempts me
to disbelieve the whole thing, it is when I
see men profess to be converted
mont to labor for Christ, and His cause
forever-come to the communion and take
the body and blood of the crucifed Saviour
in their hands and lips-and then in three
months after I see those same persons
playing cards at whist parties, dancing at
public balls, frequenting operas and thea
tres, and all manner of vain worldly amuse-
ments! 1t looks to me like consummate
hypocrisy, and I am tempted to think the
whole thing delusion ~
We cannot wonder at it, What a slur
upon Christianity, and is there nothing in
it to interest, delight, and satisfy the soul {?
Must the young Christians be without ioy,
pleasure and happiness, only as he seeks
them over in the green fields of vain world
ly amusements %
Said DR.. Cuyler, ''You cannot grow
healthy. Young Christians, in the foul air
of social 6is> ipation Midnight parties,
operas, Germans, and whist clubs, do not
suit Christ's plants of grace, any better
than Labrador ice fields suit orange trees.
A Christian cannot keep all the habits of
wording without killing his plety. Come
out and be separate means something
more than to take the communion seat
half dozen times a year,
If there is setting in upon our churches
a strong prevalent current towards an ca
sy-going religion-a tendency to favor and
practice vain, aissipating amusements.
which lead away from Christ the true
demands of the pew upon the pulpit is.
that it shall be awake to that fact-shall
speak and preach, ifneeds be against these
things, though they seem to be little mat
tiers, and though some may be offended BY
it-for the Waterman must warn the flock
against present dangers and present forms
OF worldly conformity, and departures from
God-though we may find, in faithfully
doing so, that the offense of the cross b as
not yet ceased.

Herbert was strongly affected by this

of leading him to see his duty in new

eyes to his selfshness; and made him from

Six months from that time Alice was

party was given at her own house, and in

bride didn't look lovlier; for nothing now

So netting A bout Diamonds.
HO" THEY ARE CUT AND THEIR RELA-
TIVE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. STONES.

How THEY ARE CUT AND THEIR RELA-
TIVE vALUE-1MITATION STONES.
The process used in cutting diamonds is
exceedingly interesting, for we all know
that the hardest substance in the world is
this stone; yet when presented to us in
the form of a jewel it is cut in most pre-
else and geometrical manner. Diamonds,
like most crystals of the same formation,
can be split in Il certain direction; this
property, known as cleavage" allows the
first rough shape to he given to the stone,
and also to remove the outward crust or
such parts as are defective. The stone is
then fastened with cement to the extreme
ty of stick, and as nothing but a diamond
can cut another. it is rubbed against ano
Their diamond mounted in similar fash
ion. Diamond dust mixed with oil is pla-
ced between the two stones. A fiat sur
face, or 'facet,'' is thus formed on each
diamond. The cement is then heated and
the position of the stones changed, and this
operation is repeated until the diamonds
show che elements of the shape that is I'LL
timately to be given to them. The grind
ing and polishing to which the stone has
still to be subjected are done on circular
steel horizontal table revolving at great
speed and covered with diamond dust and
oil; the stones are held to brass handles
with soft solder. The process is long and
expensive, besides requiring great skill on
the part of the workman, who can greatly
increase the value of a stone by skillful
cutting. Diamonds when cut affect either
the shape of ''brilliant' or that Of a
''rose." The brilliant has flat surface at
the top, called the ''table;" from this the
facets slope outward till they reach the
''girdle,'' or point Of greatest width of the
stone; from there they decrease, forming
an inverted pyramid terminated by small
facet. Bose diamonds are made out of
thinner stones, and often chips from large
diamonds, and are cut in pyramidal shape,
the base Of which is in the setting. Almost
microscopic roses are used for ornament in
gold-work, and when set quite close toge-
Their, for caLlrnta. Diamonds and most
precious stones are sold by weight, the
monds increases with the size more than
it does with the weight, so that a two-carat
stone is warth four times as much as one.
caret stone. Diamonds are most valuable
when quite pure white, but pink, black
and dark yellow are often of great value.
limitations of stones in sglass have been
made, with more or less success, at differ

WORTH KNOWING. Whenever an arti.

resident in one of the filthy places, leaves
off strong drink, the usual course of pro-

debts; he purchases decent clothing for
himself and family, he makes his habita-

he buys few books; takes his family to a
place of worship and if not content with
being clean and decent amongst surround

better residence in some airy and salubri.

INDIAN NAMEs.-A Frenchman is in
terpreting Indian names. He says the
Sioux Indians name their papooses after
events happening at the time of their birth
Asillustrative of this peculiar trait, Red
Cloud is known to have taken t,at name
from the fact that the western sky was
oyerspread with red clouds at the moment
Of his birth; while the bringing.in of a
captive horse with a spotted tail gave to
another chief the singular cagnamen Of
Spotted Tail. Sitting Bull received his
name because a buffalo bull was, by a
lucky shot, thrown upon its launches in
sight Of his mothers resting place at the
natal hour; while the struggles of a fgae.
tious pony furnished a title for the r.
doHbttashlAle grazy Horse.
