Going to Church in the Country"
The river flows softly through the sleepy Oc-

to so to church We set off, taking path
through the woods which leads us, sometimes
under the pines, with the breeze sighirs through
their tops, sometimes under an oak, with the
dark glossy brown leaves, = heavy carpet under
our feet. Now and then we step suddenly un-
der hickory tree and feel as if bathed in n
flood Of sunlight the whole tree above our heads
is as if gloricl with its wealth OF brilliant
yellow leaves; while thick carpet of the same

"IIow LONG HAVE | TO LIVE PIT is
not every one who asks himself this uucs-

THE BEE.
WRITTEN roR NY LITTLE Boy.

%
Let's saunter down the garden walk,
Bright with tie dowers of spring;
Beguilng time with pleasant talk,
Perchance song we'll sing.
But see that bee wen watch her fight,
Ilumming, she plies her task;
She seeks yon Jessamine, sweet and white,
And drains its tiny flask.
She visits, too, the Cclum5ine,
The Lilys uptur6ed bell,
The Morning glory's dewy vine,
The Honeysuckle's cell.
TheusoR she flies to yonder Rose,
With sweetest odor rife,
Its robe with gorgeous crimson glows,
'Tis full of beauteous life.
Soon deep within its scented breast,
The bee is lost to sight;
lis, sure, fragrant. lovely nest,
Within those petals bright.
She huns and futters, feeds at will,
Then scars to upper air.
And seeks her dainty waxen cell,
To store her honey there.
Anon returned, from flower to flower,
She flies with busy hrum,
Till gone is days last sunny hour,
And dusky twilight's come.
The dewy eve, the fragrant air,
The tinted western sky;
Where Venus shines with lustrc rare,
- The geutle breeze's sigh, I1i--' y
To these she bids adieu adieu!
Reluctant, homeward flies
Closed round by sweets the long night through,
She waits till dawn shall rise.
A life Of duty, nobly done,
Its recompense thus meets
life none rarer meath the sun,
OF sunshine, flowers, and sweets.

DEATH OF DIR. ISAAC BUTT.
A sketch nf the Career Of the Celebrated
stII0me Rule" Leader.
philadelphia fttmes.f

A dispatch from Dublin announces the
death yesterday afternoon Of DR.. Isaac Butt.
member Of Parliament from Limerick; the
founder and for several years the leader OF
the Irish Home Rule party. The only son Of
the Rev. Robert Butt, incumbent Of Stranor-
lar, County Donegal belonging to fami-
" that claimed descentsfrom the O'Donnels,
chiefs of I'yrconnell- Isaac Butt was born in
the year 1918, obtained college scholarship
in 1882 and was graduated with honors (clas-
sizes and mathematics) from Trinity in 1886.
He was called to the bar three years later,
and. in 1874, received his DOCTORS degree.
In 1910 he appeared at the bar Of the House
of Commons Us counsel for the corporation
of Dublin against the Irish corporation
reform BILL was subsequently elected q
member of the new corporation and in that
capacity opposed the O'Connell, In 1s43, in
his agitation for repeal Of the Union. In his
college days he was one OF the founders and
for some time was editor OF the Dublin Una-
uersity Mngnsine, and his taste for letters re-
manned with him in his later and buster
years. His more important works were, "A
History OF the Kingdom OF Italy d860), "A
Practical Treatise on Various Provisions Of
the Landlord and Tenant Act OF 1870 u87n,
aud an open letter to Lord Morpeth on the
Irish poor law ns73) In 1848 he was one Of
the counsel for tho defense OF Smith O'Brien
and others, arraigned ut Dublin on q charge
Of high treason. To his appearance In and
conduct OF this case may be traced the rise Of
d
popularity strengthened by bis appearance as
counsel for the defense VI the Fenians, SINH
larly charged, In 1865. From 1862 until 1865
he sat in Parliament, in the Liberal Conscr-
vatlve interest, for Yougbal, and since 1871
(havng been reelected in 1870 he has sat
for Limerick in the interest Of Home
Rule. AS the founder and leader Of the new
party=or rather the old party with q new
name--he has manifested admirable modera-
tion and sound common sense. He has al
I,n hi
the bounds Of reason, and has severely con
demned the incorporate zeal manifested by
some Of his associates. After the Obstruc-
ZIONIST difficulty that made the session OF
1877 memorable he peremptorily refused to
retain the party leadership, and did for a
time retire from his seat in the House. Only
positive pledges Of reform induced him to
resume his Parliamentary duties and party
responsibilities. Had he not been hampered
In carrying out his wise, conservative policy
by the ill-advised impetuosity of his ,soct-
ates, there il good ground for believing that
much Of what the Home Rule party had de-
manded would have been granted. 1T il alto
gether certain that In his death the Home
Rule party sustains most serious loss.

81 Celestial Figures.
[St. Louis Republican.l

The positive knowledge on spiritual things
has attained a summit of view that astron-
omy can never hope to reach with all its vast
triangleS and telescopes. The Rev. J. e..
Beltzly has discovered heaven and taken it's
dimensions and given US the exact figures,
even to fraction. The reverend Beltzly Is
mathematical genius as well as theological
professor, but his mathematics may prove
too much for his religion. The Bible which
he goes by does not hint Of more than one
world-the world we live in. Supernatural
inspiration never suggested that the stars
were worlds teeming with life, and probably
peoped with living souls to be lost or saved
But the Rev Beltzly goes farther than
the intelligence of the holy records, led
by the vastneSs of his measurements
and calculations. He bases his calcula-
tions Of the size OF heaven upon the
statement in Revelations that "the angels
measured the city with the reed $4,000 fur
longs and the length, and the breadth, and
the height OF 1t are equal He thus calcu-
lates: The heavenly city will be 1900 miles
In each OF its dimensions. which will accom-
modate all the people of all the worlds with
separate apartments" The space would
give 49, 541 166 Soc 666 666 666 % rooms of fair
size" whatever that may be, in feet and inch
es, for the common people; and 240, 900, O00-
100000, 900 mansions for the angels To reach
all these flowing figures with such nicely as
is implied by two-thirds of a room must in
volye a new inspiration. And this In turn in
wolves the statement that there are people
like unto men In other worlds than ours. AS
