Miss Ronzone's letter, published in our

will become more manifest in the course
of time.
It will be seen from a letter from DR..
Kalopothakes, published below, that a
most important achievement has been re-
allied in Greece in consequence Of an order
by the government to have the New Tes-
lament Scriptures in modern Greek read
in all the schools This is an important
step towards establishing a more literal
sentiment among the people, and we an
ticipate from it the most important re
suits.
From China, we have intelligence as
late as the 7th of October AT Hangchow
the missionaries and their families were
in better health than usual. Miss Stafford
had got back to .Soochow from Northern
China and was in better health than she
had enjoyed for years past. Mr.. Davis
was busily engaged in getting his transla-
ton of the Gospels and the Acts through
the press. All were in good health at
Soochow.
A letter from Miss Kirk, Of the 3lst of
October, shows that she is actively en-
gagged in missionary work at Sac Paulo,
and though not connected with any par
ticular missionary Society, she is, never
theless, doing an important work, espe-
cially in connection with female educa-
ton, at her own charges. She deserves
thesympathies and prayers Of all who love
the cause Of fChrist-M5ssionagy.

Nessrs. Ea7itors,-After an interval Of
eleven years the Rev. A. A Hodge, D. D.,
of Princeton, n. j., made a visit to this
place. arriving last Wednesday evening,
34th inst, accompanied by Mrs. Hodge.
He was in by-gone years a pastor of the
PRESBYTERIAN church in Fredericksburg,
and the ties which bound them together
were very strong and very tender Few
if any pastors in Virginia were ever more
warmly loved. AS might be expected,
the welcome has been as hearty as Fred
ericksburg people know how to give
which is saying good deal. Yesterday
(Sabbath) a large congregation filled the
church at both services, which were con-
Quoted by DR.. Hodge. His text in the
morning was from John xiv e. " In my
Fathers house are many mansions; and
in the evening from Romans VIII: 81, "If
God be for us, who can be against us !?
The first was full Of heaven the second
disclosed the foundation of the believers S
security. Both were dscourses marked
by great richness Of argument and illus
tration, as well as by entire simplicity Of
structure and manner of speaking; and
were a store-house of Christian comfort
The natural reference made to the many
who had gone up through much tribula-
ton, vet in the triumphs Of faith, to the
heavenly home, touched a chord which
vibrated through the whole assembly,
While the utterance of the preacher him
self became at times difficult under his
deep emotion.
Altogether the occasion has been one
of much qualification, and Dr. Hodge de
parts tomorrow (Tuesday) morning with
the benedictions of his old friends and Of
their children, and with the good wishes
of the whole community May his days
be many upon the earth; and may he
long and worthily stand, as teacher of
theology, in the place 50 ably filled by
his venerated father. In conclusion 1t is
the current feeling in this ancient town
that the old pastor would do well to
spend all his Christmas holidays in Fred
ericksburg, and always be sure to bring
Mrs. Hodge with him. y

The Russian and Prussian Governments have
adopted a kind of biscuit for horses containing
much nutritive matter in small volume. The
biscuits are formed Of meal of oats, peas and I'm
seed. A mixture has been obtained sqcA that one
Eiiooramme oft is equivalent to five kilogrmmes
Of oats. 1t has been found that horses bear
fatigue better than when fed with oats. The
biscuits can be threaded together by means of
an iron wire; thus horse may carry its own
food for four or five days.

Am Effect of Rivalry.

Cincinnati and Louisville used to be,
and perhaps still are, rivals for the trade
OF the region which their location ma kes
common ground. The drummers " of
either city frequently came in contact
on their travels. One night a party. of
each were casually assemble in the bar
room of a hotel, indulging in drinks,
joking between whites at the preten-
sions of their city rivals.
"Now,n said Il Cincinnati man, when
the evening had worn on and hilarity
was at it's height, " | invite you to take
a drink in the Louisville fas liion."
The party stood up to the Tar and
drank off their drinks, when the Gin
cinnati man laid down a dime in pay
ment, the price of drink for one.
Elbows this ?" said the barkeeper.
"This," said the Cincinnati man.. " is
the Louisville style, i'll which | invited
the party to drink. | pay for mine
each one of the party pays for his"
Presently Louisville man askeds the
company to take a drink in the Clncln-
natl fashion. They came up smiling,
and each poured of his drink to the
health of Cincinnati, with thanks to
their Louisville entertainer. This over,
the Louisville man, as they fell back
from the bar, said solomnly to the bar

A HARD HEARTED PHYsIcIAN.-A
certain physician in this city, whose

Wyandotte, Kan, where some thou
sand Southern negroes, mad with the
Kansas fever" are at present en-
camped, supported by public charity,
has never from the very beginning Of
this negro emigration movement shown
much disposition to welcome or symha-
thize with the colored brother; he has
been given quite the cold shoulder there,
and empilatieally warned to move on.
The negroes not having moved, on as
advised, Wyandotte at last lost It's pa
tience and broke out in a proclamation
aimed directly at tie negro emigrants,
and intended to put an end to this aoyer
ments, as far as Wyandotte is concerned.
The mayor Of this town warns all boats
bringing emigrants there not to land
any paapeFs or persons in destitute con-
dition under the heaviest penalties of
the law. This warning will probably
suffice. The fare Of the emigrating
negroes is so small that it is not likely
any of the Missouri river boats will risk
a heavy fine by carrying any more Of
the colored settlers to Kansas.-[N. O.

BAB DREAMs.-They tell a story of
Il brakeman on a western train Who,
while dreaming at night, imagined
he was Oh the platform of his car, dart
ing across the plains at fearful rate.
Theidanger signal was given, and swing
ing himself to one side he saw far in
the distance the red eye of a locomotive
coming with headlong speed toward
him. He seized the brake and twisted
around with frantic vehemence; mean
while his ears were assailed by the most
frantic slrieks, which in the confusion
he mistoo!1 for the screams Of the loco
motive. But imagine his horror when
on awakening he found he had seized
his wife by the ears and had nearly
twisted her head from her shoulders.
The experience of this eccentric rail-
reader was on par with that of a we'll
known gentleman of this city, who in
his dreams imagined he was in fierce
discussion with political opponent, and
to clinch the argument, pulled the nose
of his antagonist. Unfortunately it was
his wife's nose he pulled, however; and
acknowledgement female realizing the situa-
ton in an instant, went for him some
thing after the fashion of a catamount's
assault upon rival wild cat. The con-
f1ict was brief, but interesting. When
the gentleman finally ended the struggle
by rolling out on the floor, the blood
was trickling down his face from half a
dozen wounds, and there was about
enough hair on his head to make an
Indian scalp lock. Since then the gem
tleman has discouraged dreams and
eschewed politics.

THE EMBLENs OF LoyE.-Roses are
admittedly the enlblems of love. An
old tradition Gays that rose gathered
upon midsummer eve and kept in a
clean sbeet of papsr until christmas day,
will be fresh enough ;s. FOR maiden to
wear in her bosom, when be who is to
be her husband will come and take it
out. In Thuringia the rose holds SINH
lar position as a love-charm a maid
who has several lovers will name a rose
leaf after each and then scatter them
upon the water, that which sinks the last
representing her future husband. In
some parts Of Germany it is customary
to throw rose-leaves on coal fire as a
means of insuring good luck. In Ger
many, as we'll as in France and Italy, it
is believed that it a drop of ones blood
be buried under a rose-tree it will in

A country lad and maiden living in a
