Thou art the Way! never should have found

Thou art the Way! never should have found
Him,
Whom long en- my soul had sought u,
Wrapped far beyond my thought;
meyer should have dared invade his glory
With my low, groveling prayers,
Nor come before him with the piteous story
OF all my sins and cares
Hadst Thou, Divinest One, not condescended
To thine incarnate form.
Wherein the majesty of Uodhead blended
With human passions warm.
For Thou hast taught me, when fall before
Thee,
In reverence, worship, love,
l am adoring, as thus adore Thee,
The God supreme above.
Thou art the Truth-the Logos, the eternal
Reason and source of all,
The support, wisdom, guidance, lightSupernal.
That round Thy creatures fall;
Thou art the satisfying explanation
Of that was and is;
The Fathers wOnderOus secrets of creation
Are Thine no less than Hio,
One hand He holds and Thou dost lay Thine
other
Dear hands that once have bledD
With just such human touch as any brother
Might lay his on my head;
And can trust my ignorance unto Thee,
All unashamed, and bring
My heart, that it may be enlightened through
Thee,
Who knowest everything.
Thou art the Life; when earth sprang into
being
Thy word pronounced it fair;
When systems ranged themselves, at Gods
decreeing,
In orbit, Thou were there,
All JOY, all peace, all hope beyond forecasting
All creatures vital breath
Spring from the pangs that wrenched life
everlasting
Ont of the heart of death,
All good that ever came to cheer the ages,
All providential grace,
All alchemy OF Nature that presages
Rare futures for our race
From first to last BY Thee are generated,
Yea, from senseless clod.
This soul that praises Thee Thou hast created
The very God of God!
Therefore yearn to walk that Way behind
Thee,
By which thy saints have gone
Through light, through dark, assured that
shall find Thee
Near, if follow on.
Therefore I crave that Truth to clear my
From errors binding bright,
Whose mists o'ercloud, at times, the pure
elysian
So haloed with that light:
Therefore seek that Life-so through Thy
merit
To me vouchsafed, that I,
| Heir to supreme possessions, may inherit
That life that cannot die.
0 Way, Q Truth, Q Life! No declaration
From Thy dear lips could fall,
Fitted to fill, with loftier exultation,
The soul that grasps it all.

The Revival Of Learning.
After the fall of the Greek Empi,

After the fall of the Greek Empire in
1853, numbers of Greek scholars left
their homes in the imperial City of Con-
stantine, where the tarbarous Turks had
established themselves. They carried
with them all their worldly wealth-the1r
precious manuscripts concealed under
the fields Of their robes. The poor exiles
found warm welcome and a congenial
home in Italy, where taste for classical
literature had lately been awakened. We
cannot help thinking how Petrarch, who
had died three.quarters of century be-
fore, would have enjoyed the society of
these learned Greeks-he who had loved
learning so intensely, and had done so
much to cultivate tast, for it IN others.
He died as he had lived--among his
books-for he was found dead with his
head resting upon an open volume. Now
every one seemed smitten with passion
ate desire for learning, and eagerly en-
braced the opportunity of profting by
the instruction Of these ''wise men from
the East" Princes, ladies, and courtiers
were alike enthusiastic. Like boy with
a new toy, they we're filled with delight
over some newly discovered fragment OF
an old Greek or Latin author. Now the
lately invented art of printing came into
requisition. Paper had been made from
rags since about the year 1900, and, with
these new facilities, copies of the classic
authors were rapidly multiplied, and
came into the possession of those who
had never dared to hope to own one
Aldus Manutius set up a printing press
in Venice in 1883, and sent forth edition
after edition of those splendid classics
called, after him, the Aldine editions
which are to this day the delight anc
envy of all lovers of rare and costly books
It was not long before the results of thi!
revival of learning were plainly to be seen
New ways of thinking had come int
fashion; a more correct and refined taste
had begun to prevail, and thus wa
effected a complete revolution in the art
of painting, sculpture, and architecture
The new learning was called the "Human
ities,' and those who cultivated it wer,
called "Humanists;' and rightly, too; TO
the new learning worked reform il
morals, and so refinement Of manners
The Greek studies of the Humanists lie,
to the translation of the Bible into man,
of the modern languages. and purer an,
more enlightened Christianity was tn
result. And so this movement, tn
Renaissance, went on. New ideas of Re
ligion. new ideas of politics, and of gov
eminent came into being, and prepare
the way for what is called the Moder
Epoch. All that is best and sweetest an
noblest; all that is worth most having
the life Of the present day we owe
the 'new birth" that came in the fl
tenth century.-St. Nicholas.

Holt sprang to his feet and went down to
the gate; but he had vanished. The
likeness to Hugh Glendenning had been
startling, not only his face, but his at
titude and gesture and his gait seemed to
have declared that it was Hugh Glen.

George Dana came running up, calling
for help. He sale, while crossing the field
to meet Agnes, he had seen her in con-
versation with man who looked like
Hugh Gleddenning, and who strobe away
on his approach, and when he himself
reached her she swooned away and was
lying on the ground.
| The trouble which now overwhelmed
Agnes and her family was one of those
cruel enigmatical troubles which take all
restored to consciousness, declared that
while she was crossing the fields her hus-
band had suddenly started from behind
tree, caught her by the arm, held her
tightly clutched, and said to her, in a
horrible tone, "Do not dare to marry that
mani" and that she remembered no more
until she opened her eyes and saw her
mother bending over her. A frightful
bruise on the tender flesh of her arm cor
roborated her story. The family, too, had
all seen man who, if not Hugh Glen
denning, was his absolute likeness
George Dana was the only one who COM
bated the truth of these ideas; he de-
clared it to be wholly impossible
that Glendenning should be alive; he
himself had questioned the captain and

Blackburn's Yellow Fever WorI

Blackburn's Yellow Fever Work.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, Sept. 3o.-The un-
ique explanation by the friends Of Gov.
Blackburn, first, that he never was in
terestsd in a yellow fever plot; second,
that the plot was joke; and, third,
that the people Of Kentucky approved
the plot, has revived the publication of
Blackburn literature here. The Gazette
tomorrow will publish the official his
tory Of Blackburn's operations in the
yellow fever hospital at Havana,
an entirely new branch Of the
subject. 1t brings to light fact
which explains the probable con-
tents OF the valise which, 1t was proved
during the assassination trial, DR.. Black
burn had tried to induce one Hyams to
take to the United States and send by
express as q gift to President Lincoln.
This Havana history sets forth that
among other clothing that Blackburn
took to the hospitals to have infected
was black suit which he proposed to
send to Mr.. Lincoln as a pretended
present from the working men Of Man
chester. Hyams' statement, heretofore
printed, is fully corroborated by this
official testimony. The announcement
that Gov. Blackburn would make a
speech st Columbus this week, by invi-
tation Of the Democratic Committee, is
withdrawn.

succeeded in agreeing on but three
fourths Of the required number of In
spectors and one-ha!f the number of
Poll Clerks. What result may be
reached in the course oc the all-night

the Republican Commissioners had
secured the appointment of the Inspec-
tors of their own party, while their
Democratic associates were still resist
ing every attempt to appoint Inspec-
tors on their side who would not pledge
themselves to the support of the State
ticket nominated by the Syracuse con-
vention. There was, accordingly, a
failure to appoint one of the four In
spectors in each election district.
