CULTIVATE FAMILY AFFECTION.-I
can imagine no condition that carries
with it such a promise of Joy as the
farmer in the autumn, with his cellar
full, with every preparation made for
the winter, with the prospects of three
months of comfort and rest, three
months of fire-side and content, and
three months Of solid comfort. Make
your houses comfortable. Do not hud-
die together In little room around a
red stove, with every window fastened
down. Do not live in this poisoned air,
and then when one of your children dies
put piece in the paper commencing
with, "Whereas, il has pleased Provi-
dence to remove from our midst
Have plenty Of air and warmth. Let
your children sleep. Do not drag them
from their beds in the darkness of night
Treat them with infinite kindness
There is no happiness in the house moi

Women, North and South.

In speech in Cincinnati, Ohio,
the other day, the venerable Gen.
James Shields paid a warm tribute
to the women for their self.sacrifice
and devotion in behalf of the vel.
low fever sufferers. Commenting
upon it the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle
says: " When the true story Of the
yellow fever plague of 1878 shall
be written, it will be found, W
think, that the most prominent
part, North and South, belongs OF
right to the women of the land.
We have the testimony of General
Shields as to the sentiment and ac-
tion now pervading the women of
the North. Every record from
New Orleans, Grenada, Memphis,
Vicksburg and other smitten places,
is redolent with the heroism and
sacrifice of the devoted women of
the South. Many men have been
accused of cowardice IN leaving
their homes and families to the
mercy of the world and the ravages
of the scourge, but we have seen
no well authenticated account of
such baseness and treachery on the
part of auy women

recover with the shield of thy protec-
ton such as are exposed to danger."l
The gloom is on our cities, and the dark
ness everywhere,
For the hot breath of the fever fills the
sweet October air;
From the city and the village comes the
weary cry, How longp
Oh! bravest hearts in all the South, be
tender and be strong
Brave hearts that cheer the dying, brave
hearts that watch the dead,
Brave hands that bear up nobly the strick-
en- feyered head;
God bless you in your ministry of tender,
ness and love,
And write your names in glory on the
hOnor-roll above.
The North will send her treasure her sill
yer and her gold,
You give your time, your courge and sym
pathy untold;
Brave hands that fight the fever with
many tolls and cares,
We send you love and sympathy and keep
you in our prayers.
All through the days of fever and weary
nights of pain,
For you our hearts are falling, as falls the
silent rain.
Brave, patient, tender nurses, whose hearts
have proved so true,
AS you remember others, may Christ re-
member you.
From hospitals and sick-room goes up the
bitter cry,
From the little helpless orphans that fold
their hands and die.
God give you faith and patience to endure
the feverish breath,
And shield with His protection, from dan
ger and from death.
"Watch by the sick" dear Savior, in all
their pain and loss,
To all the sick and dying, send the COM
fort of the Cross.
Take thou this dreadful fever from our
stricken land away,
And hold these patient nurses in Thy dear
love to-day.

The following is an extract from

The following is an extract from
a letter from Greenville, Miss:
Despite the gloom surrounding
us we had a laughable occurrence
to-day. An old negro, Mack, ad-
dicted to drink, was taken with
delirium tremens, last night and
physician sent for. The ply sieian
failed to call until this morning.
Finding old Mack stupfiied with
whisky, he left, remarking to the
bystanders that he would call again.
Subsequently, Old Maek's friends
and members of the benevolent So
ciety examined him and found him
in a compotose state, as they sup
posed, dead. Without delay, they
hastened for a coffin and placed old
Mack in it, and with a dray started
with the supposed corpse TO the
grave. \ When about half way to
the grave, old Mack recovered, and
being physically "a powerful man,
bursted the coffin lid and arose
from his bed. Such race in OPP
posite directions between the driver
aud transported was never before
witnessed.
