Family Quarrels.

There are quarrels of various sorts, all
attended with more or less disagreeable
consequences; but the family quarrel is
most of all to be dreaded. When hus-
band and wife, father and son, brother
and sister, fall out; when with bristling
bayonets, the mOther-in-law against the
daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-
law against her mother-in-aw, are ar
rayed; then real Indebtedness begins:
for it Is too often the case that neither
party will own himself In the wrong, and
long after anger has completely died
away, pride viii hold the fort. AS a rule
we are too easily provoked The of
most of us is by far too sensitive; too
readily inhamed by chance abrasion.
We rise earlier, work harder, fight
fercer, and sit up later TO defend some
pet theory from skeptical attack than the
whole theory is worth, or ever will be.
We get some prejudice so deeply rooted
IN our minds that the combined forces of
reason and religion have no more effect
upon it than brass pin would have on a
locomotive, laying on one of the rails
over which it must pass. Our will, a
potent power for good, but as terrible in
It's capacities for evil, is often pampered
and fed at the expense of the purest and
best emotions of the heart, until, like a
spoiled child, it is only satisfied to rule
or ruin. We are too apt to forget the
existence of the "two bears, and that
81 soft answer turneth away wrath.

HYMN by JOHN g. WHITTIER.

The following hymn written for the occasio
~ Mr.. John G. Whittier, was sung to the tul
4 ''Au!d Lang Syne" at the banquet Of Il
American Pathological society in Boston.
O Painter OF tho fruits and flowers,
We own thy wise design,
Whereby these human hands Of ours
May share the work of thine.
Apart from thec We plant in vain
The root and SOW tho seed;
Thy early and thy later rain,
Thy sun and dew We need.
Our toll is sweet with thankfulness.
Our burden is our bo IN;
The course OF Eartll's gray morning is
The blessing Of lis noon.
Why search the wido world everywhere
For Eden's unknown ground?
That garden OF the primal pair
May never moro be found.
But, blest by thee, our patient toll
May right that ancient wrong,
And give to every cline and soil
Tho beauty lost so lorg.
Our homestead flowers and fruited trees
May Edon's orchard shame;
We taste tho tempting sweets Of these
Like Eve without her blame.
And, North and South aud East
The pride of nvery zone,
Tho fail Cs,, Iarost, and tho best
May all bo x,ade our own.
lts earliest shrines tho young world sought
In hill groves and in bowers;
The titscst offerings thithcr brought
We're thy own fruits and flowers.
And still with revcrent hands We Gull
Thy gifts each year renewed;
The good is always beautiful
The besutiful is good.

National Bereavment and Mourning.

National BereavMent and Mourning.
New York Letter.
Tho grief of smitten nation is alwavs
sublime, but in the case of our departed
president it excels everything of the lind the
world has ever witnessed. From the Allan.
tic to the Pacific, from Main t. Mexico, tho
vast republic is burdend with grief. This
leads to the remark that prior to the for
nation of our present constitution national
mourning was unknown in America.
Franklin, who died in 1880, was the first
thus honored, but the death Of Washington.
which occurred nine years afterward, was
the first that thrilled the nation to the CEN
ter. Mourning is ono Of the oldest of GUS
toms, and has been observed among all
nations. In ancient times, when popular
general died, tho troops cut off their hair,
and also the names of their horses. In
Athens the time Of mourning was thirty
days, while in Sparta it was only one-third
Of that time. Napoleon introduced certain
forms of public mourning, but they
were discontinued after the fall Of
the empire. Court mourning in Europe
is prescribed by ceremonials of q very
precise nature, and never exceeds six
months. In China, however, it is prolong.
ed Tor more than two years, and when the
Emperor dies all his subjects let their hair
grow for three months. Public funerals
have been feature in society, from the
earliest records. The post expensive in
modem days was that OF the Duke Of Wel-
lington, which cost the British govern
ment &1O0, ,000-equal to q half million in
our currency. The obsequies Of the first
Napoleon, when his remains were removed
from St. Helena to Paris and placed in
Les 1nvalides. was probably the grandest
mortuary pageant ever witnessed in Europe.
It was SO impressive and thrilling in it's
scenic effect that Tom Hamblin had it
dramatised for the Bowery thenter. where
it had great run. I Witnessed the per.
formance, and noted it's power over tho
audience. This, however, is the only in
stance in which mortuary occasion was
presented in dramatic form.

Fancy Stock at Fairs.
From the Rural New Yorker.

We were at the agricultural fair when
farmer and his wife were passing some
cattle pens where herd of fine COWS were
on exhibition. "Oh, John! do look at these
beautiful COWS, said the wife. arresting her
husbands attention and leading MIN to one
Of the pens. "Isu't she beauty? What .
q BID bag she has; and what beautiful yel-
low skin. Why could We not have some
COWS like that2" "Oh, come along, re-
piled the farmer, ''those COWS are hot for
as; they are fancy stock, only good for
show"
There the young farmer made grievous
mistake. Everything to be seen at fairs is
for the farmer. But he must not be mis-
led by the appearance Of the animals ON
exhibition. They are made to look their
best by every art Of the breeder. The tails
are often tied up at night in vet straw
bands to make them appear thin; the horns
are scraped and sand-papered and wa1ed;
the hide is washed with
colorde water to make the
skin yellow, and the hair is washed and
oiled to make it shine. The cows and bulls
arc fed plenty Of rich feed. and como 10 the
show in SHOW condition" This is all
reasonable and unobjectionable. A fair is
intended to please by its attactiveness, and
we expect tosee everything put On its very

their tents. General Meade with his Or
derly, from his village Of canvas half a mile
away, dashes down to tho campfire OF
Grant. Consultations are held; orderlies
came riding in; the telegraph wires were
put in action. The argry roar Of cannon
and the shrek of shells die away; the tired
soldier sinks back to sleep. The cricket

the cuckoo calls and answering mate re-

had seen enough of war; had seen it in oil
it's terrors. Its sickening sights had been
forever daguerrcotyped upon my brain, and
into it had been branded as with burning
iron grateful appreciation of the patriotic
cited heroes who had left wife and home,
OF their native and their adopted land.
On my way again paused at tho Vir-
ginia farm house, with it's vide veranda
and cherry trees. With the freedom Of q
former introduction, stopped and entered

very lounge upon which I had sat and
chaffed my snucy robcl of seventeen, lay n
wounded soldier in blue, nicely propped
and pillowcd, and by his side sat our ir-
reconcilablo rebel, reading to him from a
book OF poems, and tanning him. I
bowed and uncovered ana laughed, laughed
loud and long, and she, tho Yankee hater,
b!ushed and flushed, from pink to red,
from red to crimson, from crimson to blue
the little hypocrite and traitor. What
could she do but blush, Us there came back
to her the recollection of the dreadful
things she had said concerning Yankee off,
GERS, and here had detected her in the
very act of PLAYING ninlsteri1g angel to one
of Hancock's s handsome captains. He had
l'een wounded in the Wilderness, md was
being taken to the hospital at Washington.
While the ambulance was passing the door
of the farm his wound broke out afresh,
and it was feared he would die.
He was taken into tho farm. house.
It would not violate the traditions of its
hospitality even to q wounded enemy, and
not till he had found bed in it's best room
and had his wounds dressed, did the rebel
brother recognize the northern soldier who
a year before had borno him through the
darkness of night upon his shoulders to a
place of safety. He was cOnvalescing aud
making love, and she was forgetting home,
country, and patliotism.

Commend mo to that generous heart
Which like the pine on high
Uplifts the same unvarylng brow
TO every change Of sky;
Whose friendship does not fade away
When wintry tempests blow,
But like the winter's icy crown,
Looks greener through the snow.
He flies not with the fitting stork,
That seeks Southern sky,
But fingers where the wounded bird
Hath laid him down to Gle.
