Dutch were now exulting, and the
French generals prepared to retreat;
but the spider forewarned Disionoval
that the thaw would be of short dura-
ton, and he knew that this weather
monitor never deceived. He contrived
to communicate with the army of his
countrymen; and its generals, who
duly estimated his character, relied
upon his assurance that within few
days the waters would again be pass
able by troops. They delayed their re-
treat; within twelve days the frost had
returned--the French army triumphed,
Disjonval was liberated, and spider
had brought down ruin on the Dutch
nation.

ship stations in MId-Ocean.

The possibility Of anchoring vessels
at a maximum depth Of three miles in
mid-Ocean, may be reasonably enter
tained In this progressive century. and
a plan for such project has thus been
sketched: An international Company
Is TO be organized, its project and pro-
perty TO be secured as neutral by treat
les in the event of wars. The great
maritime nations are then to be sOlici-
ted for pecuniary and other aid, as old
war vessels, cables, buoys, ETC., will be
required. Across the great Atlantic
plateau these vessels are to be placed
just the distance apart il will take
vessel twelve or twenty-four hours to
run. One or two telegraphic cables,
or perhaps telephones, will be laid near,
stretching from America to Ireland,
with connecting branches running to
each of the eight or sixteen anchored
vessels. These vessels are manned and
rugged so as TO be manageable should
they they get adrift. They will then
be ready for the performance of the fol-
lowing duties: Postal marine insurance
marine and telegraphic stations. They
will also be used as electric light ships,
relief, life, property and survey sta
tions, as also for meteorological obser-
vatories. Every feature seems to be
covered by the project. Proper sup
ports for the deep anchOrings, adjusta-
BILE branch connections with the tele-
graph cable, and appliances to loosen
the powerful strain and constant mo-
ton of the anchored or rather moOred
vessels-all of these details have been
well considered. As a steamer nears
mid-Ocean station, the mail bags are
exchanged and cablegrams transmitted,
together with the daily morning and
perhaps evening papers just from the
press on board the station and contain
ing up to that hour news from all parts
of the civilized world. Here likewise
may the sick and sOinclined passengers
lie over to return on the next steamer
passing, Supplies are renewed and
succor given if in distress. The sta
tiOns will be supplied with every mod
ern appliance for the saving of life and
property and force Of able seamen.
1t is said that the salvage percentage
upon distressed vessels saved from loss
and shipwreck will alone pay hand
some dividend. The liberal aid of all
nations is expected to an extent that
will preclude the necessity of the COM
pany raising much capital from its
members. Prominent enterprising
men in every country will be solicited
to join it and act as agents in obtaining
the aid Of their respective governments.
The telegraphed notice of approaching
storms at sea would be of great service
to vessels, while an opportunity for a
study Of the winds and currents and a |
comparison of logs would be invalua-
BILE. The whole project is novel and
useful, and if carried out will prove a
humanitarian and profitable enterprise

The sights of Calcutta are not numer-
ous, as the city contains no temples and
no monuments of antiquity. Nearly
every stranger inquiries first for the
Bnrning Chat, or cremation grounds,
where the Hindoos burn their dead,
and one visit generally sufllces. | went
there the day after my arrival, and
found IN enclosed space on the banks
of the Ganges, with steps leading down
to the water. A dozen or more men
were standing around or raking the
ashes of some smouldering heaps, and
our approach was the signal for an APP
peal for money. On one heap was n
body half consumed, the fire still burn
ing flercely, and another pile,on which
lay the body of a woman, was lighted
just as we entered. The wood was
dry, and perhaps it had been saturated
with oil at any rate it famed fiercely
up, so that in the little time we were
here the work of destruction went on
visibly. No patent furnaces or other
improvements are used here; there is
only pile of wood and the body that
is to be cremated. After the body has
been destroyed the ashes are thrown
into sacred river, form of sepul-
chre eminentIy satisfactory to the pious
Hindoo. Formerly, the cremation was
more theoretical than real, as the men
appointed to perform the work would
put the most of the money for wood in
to their pockets, and throw the body
Aato the river after It was hardly more
Ilan scorched. Corpscs floating in the
anges were an hourly sight and some
fines dozens might be seen in single
day. Complaint was 50 general that
the government stepped in and had
something to say; it did not endeavor
to put stop to the cremation, but 1t
required the work to be thoroughly
performed, and stationed policemen at
the CHAT to see that its orders were car
ried out.

Words OF Wisdom.

A grain of prudence is worth a pound
of craft.
Boosters are cousins to liars.
Confession of faults makes half
amends.
Denying fault doubles it.
Envy shooteth at another and wound
eth itself. Foolish fears double danger.
God reaches us good things by our
own hands.
He has hard work who has nothing
to do.
1t costs more to avenge wrongs than
it does to bear them.
knavery is the worst trade.
Learning makes a man fit company
for himself.
Modesty is guard to virtue.
Not to hear conscience is a way to ST.
lence it.
One hour to-day is worth two to-
morrow.
Proud looks make foul words in their
faces.
Quiet conscience gives quiet sleep.
Richest is he that wants the least.
Small thoughts INDUCED are little
thieves.
The boughs that bear most hang low
est.
Upright walking is sure walking.
Virtue and happiness are near kin.
You never lose by doing good turn.

The Responsive Chord.

Rev. j. William Jones, in an address
before the National Sunday School Con-
vention, Atlanta, Ca, related the fol-
lowing incident:-In the early Spring
of 1873, when the Confederate and Fed
eral armies were confronting each
other on the opposite hills of Stafford
and Spottsylvania, two bands chanced
one evening at the same hour to begin
to discourse sweet music on either bank
Of the river. A large crowd of the sol
diers of both armies gathered to listen
to the music, the friendly pickets not
interfering, and soon the bands began
to answer each other. First the band
on the northern bank would play "Star
Spangled Banner" Hail Columbia" )"
or some other national air, and at its
conclusion the boys in blue would
cheer most Justify. And then the band
on the southern bank would respond
with "Dixie" or "Bonnie Blue Flag, 4"
or some other Southern melody, and
the 'boysin gray would attest their
appreciation with an old Confederate
yell. But presently one of the bands
struck up, in sweet and plaintive notes
which were waited across the beautiful
Rappahannock, were caught up at once
by the oJher band and swelled into
grand anthem which touched every
heart, CLONE Sweet Home!" AT the
conclusion of this piece there went up
a Simultaneous shout from both sides of
the river-cheer followed cheer, and
those hills which had so recently re-
sounded with hostile guns, echoed and
re-echoed the glad acclaim. A chord
had been struck responsive to whicn the
hearts sofenemies-enemies then--could
beat in unison; and, on both sides of
the river,
Something down the sodiers's cheek
Washed off the stains OF powder"

A River Reversed.

A natural river begins in countless
little runlets, which unite in a network
Of larger streams, to unite In their turn
in still larger ones, until strong
current receives the united flow from
all. The sunless stream that supplies q
great city, like New York, reverses all
this. 1t begins at single stream and
ends at a million outlets. The network
of pipes through which the Croton is
delivered aggregates length Of 44O
miles, and the daily flow averages
So, 600, 900 gallons.

would drown him In the river. Peter,
unrecognized, said to the ferryman:
stranger, / want you to put me
across"
"Wait till I'm ready" said the ferry
man, and pursued his conversation and
structures on Peter Cartwright. Hav-
ing finished, he turned to Peter and
said:
snow I'll put you across"
On reaching the middle of the stream,
Peter threw his horses bride over a
stake in the boat, and told the ferryman
to let 90 his pole.
"What forf" asked the ferryman.
swell, you've just been using my
name improper-like; and you said II
ever l came this way you would drown
me. Now you've got chance"
"Is your name Peter CartwrightH'
asked the ferryman.
"My name is Peter Cartwright"
Instantly the ferryman laid hold of
the preacher: but he did not know Pc
ter's strength, for Peter instantly seized
the ferryman and holding him by the
nape of the neck, plunged him In the
water, saying:
81 baptize thee splash in the name
of Satan, whose child thou art"
Then lifting him up, dripping, Peter
asked:
"Did you ever prayH"
"No."
"Then it's time you did,"
"I'll do no such thing" answered
the ferryman.
Splash splash and the ferryman was
in the depths again.
"Will you pray now?" asked Peter.
The gasping victim shouted: w'll do
anything you bid mel"
"Then follow me-'Our Father,
which art in heaven,'" etc.
Having acted as clerk, repeating after
Peter, the ferryman cried:
NOW let me go!"
"Not yet," said Peter. "You must
make me three promises: lst, that you
will repeat that prayer, morning and
evening, as long as you live; ID, that
you will hear every pioneer preacher
that comes within five miles of this
ferry; and, Sd, that you will put every
Methodist preacher over free of ex-
pense. Do you promise and vow?"
81 PROMISE" said the ferryman; and,
strange to say, that very man became
a shining light in the church.

tor to the attendant. The native united
the cord which bound the little fellow
TO his mothers neck. With few ca

With a shrill trumpet, the mother

rushed after her wayward child.
lie, needless of the excitemen he had
created, gambOled ahead, AS playful as
kitten chasing ball of yarn. Up a
sloping mound he toddled, and, being
out of breath was caught by his mother.
For minute or two, the elephant and
calf stopped to breathe, and the doctor
to recover his temper.
At the opposite side of the mound
was perpendicular descent of fifteen
feet. Suddenly the calf marched to the
edge, and Topped over on his back.
Falling on the sandy bed of the ravine,
he was uninjured, and the mother,
though still anxious, remained quiet.
Just then, another female elephant
came in sight, on the opposite bank Of
the rayine. OF course, the calf tried to
climb up the bank to her.
That was too much for the Jealous
mother. With Il shrill trumpet, she
rushed to the edge Of the mound. The
mahout, knowing the danger, drove
the sharp steel hook, used in driving,
deep into her head.
The pain caused her to halt. Falling
on her knees, with her head over the
precipice, she shook herself violently.
The driver of the other elephant, see
ing the cause of the excitement, drove
her away. The attendant rushed up
and secured the calf. Then the mother
rose from her knees, and, backing from
the edge suffered the frightened doctor
to dismount. He vowed he would walk
home, before he would mount that ieal-
Gus brute again.
The tiger was wounded by long
shot from one of the officers, but escaped
into the Jungle.
"My dear fellow" said the doctor,
in telling his adventures to a friend, lit

THE OLD BARN.

Rickety, old, and crazy,
shingleless, lacking some doors
Bad in the upper story,
Wanting some boards in the floors ;
Beams strung thick with cobwebs,
Ridgepole yellow and gray,
Hanging in helpless innocence
Over the mows Of nay.
How the winds turned around it
Winds of stormy day
Scattering the fragrant hay-seed,
Whisking the straws away;
Streaming in at the crannies,
SpreS1ing the clover smell,
Changing the dark old granary
Into a fiowery de |.
Oh, how loved he shadows
That cling to the silent roof
Day dreams wove with the quiet
Many glittering woof
/ climbed 10 the highest rafters,
And watched the shadows at play,
Admiring the knots in the boarding,
And rolled in the pillows Of hay.
Palace OF king couldn't match it,
The Vatican loses it's charm,
When placed in my memory balance
Besides the old gray barn
And I'd rather scent the clover,
Piled in the barns roomy mows,
Than sit in the breath Of the Highlands
Poured from Apennine prows
