IuIS Cai IS pIdlu anu pOlHlcu, dHu our adyices are to the effect that a lively in terest is felt ln the subject and disinterest- ed men will 5e elected as delegates, and it will answer as basis for action in other counties where no form of organization exists.
 Our correspondence with leading mcm- bers of the party causes this Committee to believe that the following number of Delegates from each county to the Con- vention will be satisfactory, and we ask that they b6 so selected, viz: From Pima, s; Maricopa, 3; Yayapai, 3; and from Yuma, Mohave, Apache, and Pinal, two each.
 At the time the Convention will be held the census returns will be known, and a Territorial Central Committee can be elected with its members properly ap- portioned according to population, so as to greatly facilitate the business opera tions of the party.
 Firmly founding our faith on the well tried principles of the Republican party we call upon all who affiliate with us to at once act in this matter and by eXerting themselves in the proper direction, see to it in every precinct in each county in the Territory, that the voice of such Republi- cans as may be there found, shall be heard in unison with ours, in calling representa- tive men t. meet at Phoenix, August 23d to place squarely before the people of Ari- zona a candidate for election to Congress, of whom they shall he proud to say that he is the choice of the untrammeled yot- CTS of the Territory.

How a Kind Act Shines.

Charlie, said his mother, when he
came in from school, "Will you try to
amuse your little sister for a while?"
Did he scowl and pout, and look EMO, |
won't, if he did not say it2 No, Charlie
did not. Did he vince and say, "Oh,
mother, l have been shut up in school
all the morning, and | want to go out
to play; can t somebody else take, her?''
No; many boy would, but Charlie
did not The boys We're waiting for him
at the door to come and play, and Charlie
would have liked to go, but he gave up
his own pleasure for his dear mothers
sake, or rather, he made it his pleasure
to help her. Yes, mother, I'll take
sissy you look so tired, !" answered Char
lie pleasantly And his kind and will
ling tones sent sunshine into his mothers
heart Sissy" had been sick and fret
full, and mother had had to neglect many
things for her sake. Mother thus re-
leased, had time to take a long breath in
another room; then to meet Amy, who
was trudging up stairs crying, with a
splinter in her fnger-she took out. the
splinter, soothed the little finger, and
kissed away the tears; then she FASTENED
to the kitchen, where poor Bridget was
worried with her work I'm indeed
glad you've come, ma am" said she.
there's woman waiting at the door,
and l told heryou couldn't come every
things at beam ends The mother
spoke cheerfully to Bridget, and she
went to the door and said kind
word to the poor old woman on the
steps, and put loaf in her basket, and
she hobbled off with streak Of sunshine
in her heart
Then mother helped Bridget about this
thing and told her about that and put
new life into the the boiling and roasting,
in order to have dinner all ready at the
proper time when father and uncle came
home.
AS mother went about her household
cares, Tightening and frightening every
burden lin eheriway, it was her. greatest
comfort to feel that sissy was in good
hands; for Charlie, she was sure, was
doing his best to make the little one hap

Purity of Character.

Over the outer coat of plum and april
cot there grows bloom more beautiful
than the fruit itself-a soft, delicate pow
der that overspreads its rich colors
Now, if you strike your hand over that
and 1T is once gone, it is gone forever;
it only appears once. The flower that
hangs in the morning empearled with dew
-arrayed with jewels-once shake it, so
that the beads. roll off, and you, may
sprinkle water over it as you please, yet
it can never be made again what it was
when the dew fell gently on it from
heaven.
On a frosty morning you may see the
panes of glass covered with landscapes,
mountains, lakes and trees, blended into
a fantastic picture Now lay your hand
upon the glass, and by the scratch of
your finger, or by the warmth of the
palm, all the delicate tracery will be OBJ
liberated
So there is in youth beauty and pu-
rity of character, which, when once
touched and defled, can never be restored
"a fringe more delicate than frost-work
which, when torn and broken, will never
be repaired. When young lad or girl
leaves the parents house, with the bless
ing Of a mothers tears still wet upon the
cheek, if early purity of character be once
lost, it is loss that can never be made
up again Such is the consequence Of
crime. Its effect cannot but be in some
way felt, though by Gods mercy it may
be forgiven Early Days.

Ghildrem's Column.
Honesty Rewarded.

George and Harry worked in the same
shop; but as the working season was al
most over, and there would be little work
to do during the summer months, their
employer informed them, as they settled
up on Saturday evening, that he could
only give one of them work hereafter.
He said he was very sorry but it was
the best he could do. He told them both
to come back on Monday morning, and
that he would then decide on the one he
wished to retain. So the young men re-
turned to their boarding house a good
deal cast down; for work was scarce, and
neither knew where he could obtain a
situation if he was the one to leave.
That evening, as they counted over
their weeks wages, Harry said to his
friend: ~,
Mr. Wilson has paid me quarter of
dollar too much" z
So he has me, said George, as he
looked at his.
How could he have made the mis-
take?' said Harry
Oh he was very busy when six o'clock
came; and, handling so much money, he
was careless when he came to pay our
trife, said George, as he stuffed his into
his pocketbook.
Well said Harry, 81 am going to
stop as | go tothe post office, and hand
the money to him.
You are wonderful particular about
a quarter" said George, What does he
care about that trife? Why, he would
not con e to the door for it if he knew what
you wanteds and I'm sure you worked
hard enough to earn it. -aelE eu.weE
But Harry called and handed his en-
ployer the money, who thanked him for
returning it, and went into the house.
Mr.. Wilson had paid them quarter OF
dollar too much, on purpose, to test
their honesty
So when Monday morning came, he
seemed to have no difficulty in determin-
ing which one he would keep. He chose
Harry, and entrusted the shop to his care
for few months while he was away on
business, and was so well pleased with
his management, that when work com
menced in the fall, he gave him the posi-
ton of superintendent. rn le@a
Five years afterwards, Harry was Mr..
Wilson's partner; and George worked in
tie same shop again, but as common

going to the Liberties but not so; seeing
that she was not preparing to obey him,
he said, in voice and manner not to be
mistaken. Ma file d6pechez Uots, .
=" Make haste my daughter And so
she had to GO, and her father took her by
the hand and led he up to the proprietor
of the ribbon factory

have to trouble you again to-day, but l
have brought my.child to ask your
pardon for having picked up this bitTof
ribbon on the floor to-day, and carried it

But, Monsieur R." said his
friend, how gladly would l have given
Mademoiselle R. and her little sister,
as many pieces Of ribbon as they chose

from her hand, she is now ready to ask

The Bit of Ribbon.
A HuGuENoT sToRY.

Many young readers will remember
reading in their histories about the mas
sacre of st. Bartholomew and the Reyo-
cation of the Edict of Nantes. At that
terrible time many families who loved
God and His Word and their religious
liberty better than the things Of this
world, gave up their estates in their be-
loved France and fed to different coun-
tries, many of them coming to America,
where their descendants still live. ''
In one family which emigrated to Ire
land, a son was born while his parents
were journeying to Dublin He grew
up, and married the daughter of a
clergyman, and had three very beautiful
little girls; their names were Alice, Re
becca, and Ester-Marie. These little
girls were very carefully brought up in
The knowledge of the Lord and His holy
Word, and their father ordered his house
hold according to it, and set an example
to children and servants of strict ODE
dience to the commandments of his God
Now you know that one of the ten com
mandmen to (the tighth) is, Thou shalt
not covet. On the strict keeping OF
these two commandments hangs my little
story, which is quite true.
At the time Of which. I speak (more
than a hundred years ago., there was
great trade In silk manufactures carried
on by the French refugees in a part OF
Dublin, still called, as it was then, "the
Llberties.' Poplin and ribbon were
made very beautifully there and from a
specimen | happen to possess of brocaded
silk, | know Of nothing to compare with
it, either in texture or beauty. How
ever, the three little girls, hearing their
father and his French friends often speak
ing of the beautiful ribbon factory, asked
him to take them to visit It. that they
might see the French ribbon-weaYers at

They were much interested in the beau

of color and design wrought in the RIB
bon-looms: AS they passed through the
workshops, they saw some of the men rol-
ling the ribbons for sale, and remarked
that from7each piece of ribbon defec-
tive piece at the end, called tie fag, was
cut off and thrown on the floor, to be
swept out on Saturday evening. Some
