cll of the Presbyterian bodies at Philadelphia,

denominational divisions In his Own country ::
the doctrine, OF course, Is the same they
only differ in few questions OF church govern
ment The Free Church of Scotland admits the
light of the State In moulding certain forms OF
church government, but has resisted the manner
of interference. 1t has always held TO the
opinion that the State interAIcs too much with
the liberty of private Judgment and hence has
separated from its der endence and support. In
lis principles the Free Church of Scotland re-
sembleS very much the Presbyterian Church of
America, which in its action and deliberations
is entirely free from the interference of the
State. The Established Church OF Scotland. of
course, enjoys the full privileges of church pro-

Scotland denies totally the right of any inter
ference ON the part OF the State with church

THE DIGNITY OF LABOR.

Those who toll to earn their bread
Need not blush to own their lot
They in noble footsteps tread,
And claim to live have got.
Toll is not the wage of sin,
For in Eden work was given;
Man was made to work and win
Spoils of earth and bliss of heaven.
He who at the anvil stands,
Striking while the iron glows,
Though he works with horny hands,
Nobody strikes the ringing blows,
At the loom, and in the field,
In the shop, and on the soil,
Where men wisely power WELD,
There is dignity in toll
He who works with throbbing brain,
Thinks 90 teach men how to live
Writes that others good may gain,
Speaks to truth fresh Zest to give.
He can claim the manly right
With the sons of toll to stand
He asserts his mental might,
Helps to bless his native land.
He who lives a life of ease,
Idly wasting all his days
Aiming only self to please,
Filled with pride and counting praise
Call him not noble man,
Such existence is a shame
And when ends life's black span,
Soon viii die his empty name.
Labor brings reward and rest,
Educates the latent powers
And he serves his age the best
Who employs his golden hours
Working not beyond his might,
Toiling not against his will,
And beneath his masters sight
Glad his mission to fulfill.
All things labor for our good,
He who made us never sleeps
He who tills the ground for food,
For his pains a harvest reaps.
None who work need feel ashamed,
AS they do what good they can;
'Tis an honor to be named,
AS we toll, "a workingman."

fell into mine-shaft, TO depth of some
66 feet. As he tumbled down the mar

his body striking against the earth and

an interest in the creature listened, TO
hear if any sound of pain came up from
the depths below. but, as all was silent,

You have an undOubted right to stop
newspaper whenever YOU are disposed, upon
paying all arrearages. Do not hesitate 10 do
so on account Of any tenderness OF feeling
for the editor. Don't you suppose he would
stop buying sugar of you, or meat, clothing
dry goods etc, etc, if he thought he was
not getting his moneys worth And when
you discontinue your paper, do so manfuily.
Don't be so pitiful as TO throw il back to the
postmaster with a c0ntemptuous, Il don't
want il any longer - and have refused
written on the margin, and have the paper
returned to the editor. No gentleman ever
stopped paper in that way, no matter II ms

Fall of a Huge Stand-Pipe.

An attempt was made in Toledo, Ohio, on
Saturday last, to raise a stand-pipe for the
water-works. 1t was constructed of boiler
iron, was go feet long, and feet in diam
eter, and weighed about Ga 900 pounds. To
place it in perpendicular position was no
easy task. Men had been at work for sew
eral days preparing derricks or shears for It's
erection, and at the time set, a large crowd
had assembled to witness the raising. Soon
after o'clock the work was commenced,
and five or six minutes were occupied in
taking the stretch out of the ropes. After
rest of ten minutes the horses ali started
together, and the work began in earnest.
Steadily the pipe moved up, and in the
course Of two hours and half, shorter
period by half an hour than was anticipated.
the blocks had crawled up to within less
than twenty feet of each other, and the butt
of the pipe began to clear the ground and
move toward its bed. Guys were attached
to steady it, and the entire mass steadily
approached a perpendicular. The base was
within twenty feet or less of the bed, when
suddenly cracking was heard away up
among the tackle-blocks. The iron band,
two inches in diameter, around the lower
block on the west side, parted, the pipe
swung over toward the river, the lashings
broke, with a culver the other fastening
gave way, and the pipe swept through the
air to the ground, striking across the filter
bed and breaking in three pieces As soon
as the first notes of warning were heard the
crowd took the alarm and fled in every d.
rectiop. so that no one was hurt.

The Extent of the Black Hills.

The Black Hills do not cover an area much
longer than one-half of Massachusetts. A
line drawn directly through from North to
South would not measure more than one
hundred miles another line from East to
West would be less than eighty. The sides
of that triangle | alluded to do not measure
more than forty miles; and the majority of
the intervening territory is wooded hills.
The best way of entering the Hills, if you
ever want to go to the gold fields, my reader,
is to come here, to Bear Butte, and follow
Clusters trail. 1t took him a long time to
find way out, and it will take you longer
to find way in, if you attempt it in this
region. Another entrance can be made at
Inyan Kara, at the Southwest, if you start
from the Union Pacific Railroad, and you
will find gold almost from the very start.
Gypsum will come first, then mica, then
the velvet valleys with their golden lining.
These two courses are the most feasible, but,
of course, trails may possibly be made else
where The extreme Southern ranges, the
ranges of the East and Northwest, are al
most impossible because of the steep de-
clivities and the abruptness of the foot
hills.

RABIES.

Though the sight of a dog almost always
changes the passive state of hydrophobia
in any animal to the active, raging condi-
ton; there is one recorded fact which
points to the probability that an animal
afflicted with this disease was thrown into
aviolent state at sight of an Individual be-
longing to the particular species from
which poison was received. A horse in
oculated with rabies obtained from sheep,
and exhibiting the most terrible symptoms
Of the malady, showed no disquietude what
ever at sight Of dog. When one was
thrown to him he pushed it away with his
nose; a sheep being placed in the same
enclosure, he became frantic, and in a
dreadful paroxysm of rage he seized it and
killed it with one movement of his power
full jaws. This case is in direct opposition
to the usual course of things, for animals
suffering from rabies have, in all other
known instances, been excited to madness
whenever a dog showed himself. It may
be that the constancy of this phenomenon
is due only to the fact that the incubation
is almost always inflicted by a dog.

The Plague of Ants in London.

No little anxiety exists in the neighbOr-
hood of London by the plauge of ants. Those
who are accustomed to look on the ant as an
Industrious but insignificant creature will
probably smile at the idea of its presence
even in swarms being a source Of serious In
convenience. Without any wish to cause
an unnecessary panic, but merely with the
view of preparing Londoners for possible
contingencies, it may be as well to call at
tention to the proceedings of an army of ants
that some years ago invaded the island Of
Grenada. The ants ON that occasion ''de-
scended from the hills like torrents, and the
plantations as well as every path and road
for miles were filled with them Rats, mice,
and reptiles became an easy prey to them.
and even the birds, which they attacked
whenever they lighted on the ground in
search Of food, were so haraSsed as to be at
length unable to resist them. Streams Of
water only opposed temporary obstacle to
their progress; the foremost rushing blindly
on certain death and fresh armies instantly
following, until bank was formed of the
carcases of those which werL drowned suf6-
Gent to dam up the waters and allow the
main body to pass over in safety. Even fire
was tried without effect. When it was
lighted to arrest their route, they rushed
into the blaze in such myriads as to extin-
guish it. To such straits was the unfortun-
ate island reduced by the ants that :. reward
of ego, 900 was offered, but in vain, for an
efectual means Of destroying them; and 1t
was not until hurricane in 1870 came and
blew them away and destroyed then-doing,
by the way, almost more mischief than the
ants-that Grenada was freed from these
terrible destroyers. Happily, in London we
have the steam-roller, which should be kept
ready for immediate action in the face of the
calamity with which we are now threatened.

COnnubial Love.

Save her husband, she really cared for no
created being. She was good enough to her
children, and even fond enough of them
but she would chop them all up into little
pieces to please him. In her intercourse
with all around her she was perfectly kind,
gracious and natural but friends may die,
daughters may depart, she will be as per-
fectly kind and gracious to the next set. If
the king want her, she will smile upon him,
be she ever so sad; and walk with him, be
she ever so weary; and laugh at his brutal
jokes, be she in ever 50 much pain of body
or heart. Caroline's devotion to her hus-
band is a prodigy to read Of What charm
had the little man? What was there in
those wonderful letters Of thirty pages long,
which he wrote to her when he was absent,
and to his mistresses at Hanover, when he
was in London with his wife? Why did
Caroline, the most lovely and accomplished
princess of Germany, take little, red-faced
staring princeling for husband, and refuse
an emperor? Why, to her last hour, did
she love him so? She killed herself because
sa..o loved him so. She had the govt, and
would plunge her feet in cold water in order
to walk with him. With the film of death
over her eyes, writing in intolerable pain,
she yet had vivid smile and gentle word
for her master.

The Best Cow.

A pretty rich thing occurred at the estab-
lishment of Simpson not long since. Simp-
son used to be our milkman, and we attri-
butte to him in great measure, our loss Of
confidence in humanity generally, and milk
men in particular. Mike Welch had been
recommended to Simpson as fit man to as
sist in taking care of horses and COWS; so
Mike was hired, and placed in charge of his
department.
One morning after Mike had been a
month at the place, Simpson, who had made
ready to start off with his milk wagon, said
to him, mike, you may give to the cows
some oatmeal this morning, and be sure
you give my best mixer an extra guam

the most milk?''

"Well, you may give her four quarts of
The NASH
'All right, sir I'll do that same"
On the evening of that day, Simpson had
occasion to go to the old wooden pump in
The yard. He tried the handle but it
wouldn't work. The pump seemed to be
entirely choked up. Finally, he discovered
shat all the upper part was loaded with
something very nearly resembling oatmeal
mash. He called to his man servant.
Nike said he, "what's the matter with
this pump?'
''The pump, is it, sir?'
Eyes. How came this oatmeal mash in
here?''
"Sure, sir, put it in meself."
''Stupid blockhead! why did you do
that?''
SIT was yerself that told me, sir''
"1-I told you to put it in here?'
"Indade We did, sir.
"Why, you thick-headed rascal what do
you mean?''
"Don't be in passion, master. Didn't
&c tell me to give yer best mixer an extra
quantity Of the mash ?-and where in all the
place, I'd like to know, as the creathur that
giUes so much milk to ger cans as does this

The story leaked out. and added greatly to
The distrust already entertained by Simp-

EXTENSIVE DEAD-HEADING.

A few days ago hearse arrived from
Rochester, N. Y, consigned to yesterday &
Morgan of this city Oakland, Cal). The
hearse was transported from the shop in
Rochester without change of cars from the
fat on which it was originally placed. Be-
fore shipment the manufacturers placed
large box over it to protect it from the
weather. The box rested on the axles, in
side the wheels, being long enough to ex-
tend from the rear over the dashboard in
front. Owing to the construction of the
drivers seat on the hearse, the corners of
the box extended far enough to allow room
for the body OF a man to pass between the
box at that point and the hearse.
The front and rear of the vehicle is so
constructed as to swing open, and thereby
hangs the tale. This was known by some
one who silently contemplated how easy
it would be to save few cents and see the
country where strawberries grow as large
as hens eggs all the year round, and then
bounced off to lay in stock of provisions.
These he procured, dpoked them through
the cavity between the hearse and the box,
after which he followed. Once within the
wooded sepulchre, it is thought he wafteda
song of praise, for there reposed large
box, partially filed with silver-plated cas-
ket trimmings, ETC., which had been packed
in straw and shavings, as also the seat
cushions. After arranging his corned beef,
bread, sardines, herm etically sealed cab,
bage, and a quantity of tobacco, he arrang-
ed the ornaments in the box so as to leave
a nice place in the center for him to repose
in.
And then, after taking a drink and
chew of tobacco, he reclined amid the straw
and fine shavings, and quietly snickered.
The appearance of this suffering soul, as he
laid back and elected the nicotine from be-
tween his ruby lips against the plate glass
sides of that hearse, must have been salts
factory. AS was seen by the remnants left
in his lodgings, his appetite remained SUBJ
stantial throughout the journey, but his
amiable weakness seems to have been in
lining the glass walls of his sanctum with
tobacco juice. A highly-colored, short
stemmed clay pipe, found in the corner,
gave proof that it was not allowed to rust

sign from Yusuf, and made way for him /;
and he passed them with naughty air, but
keeping his eyes about him and holding the
sword at guard, for Axelvold had reason to
doubt the promises of the prince.
But Yusuf kept his word, and the robber
departed from the village unmolested.
A little later, mountain lad brought back
the sword and returned it to the owner, with
message from Axeivold
I" Her highness, the princess, has taught
Axelvold that he should not wrong any man

subsequently, Prince Yusuf, who was
greatly impressed by the courage and gen.
erous character of the robber, interceded for
him with the authorities at Tifiis, and OBJ
tanned his pardon and Axelvold returned to
the city, with lama, his wife, and ever led
