REQUIREMENT.

We live by faith but faith is not the slave
Of text and legend. Reasons voice and Gods,
Natures and dutys never are at odds.
What asks our Father of his children save
Justice and mercy and humility,
A reasonable service of good deeds,
Pure living, tenderness to human needs,
Reverence and trust, and prayer for light to see
The Masters footprints In our daily ways
No knotted scourse, nor sacrifcial knife,
But the clam beauty of an ordered life
Whose very breathing is nnworded praise
A life that stands, as all true lives have Stood
Fast rooted in the faith that God is good
Dream not, soul that easy is the task
Thus set before thee. If it proves at length
As well it may beyond thy natural strength,
Doubt not, despair not As a child may ask
A father, pray the Everlasting Good
For light and guidance midst the subtle snares
Of sin, thick planted in ltes thoroughfares,
For spiritual nerve and moral hardihood.
Still listening midst the noises round about
Of time and sense, the inward speakingword,
Bitter IN blame, sweet IN approval heard,
Piercing the tumult of the world without;
To health of soul a voice to cheer and please,
To guilt the wrath of the Eumenides
UTTERANCE.
But what avail inadequate words to touch
The innermost of truth f? Shall | essay
Blinded and weak, to point and lead the way,
Or grasp theme for angels overmuch
Yet it be that something not my own.
Some shadow of the thought to which our
schemes
And creeds and rituals are uncertain Dreams
Is even to my unworthiness made known,
| may not hide what yet scarcely dare
To utter lest on doubtful lips of mine
The real seem false, the fitness less divine
So through the pauses of an inward prayer,
own the faith which seems the simple truth
At evening time, as in the dawn of youth.
[John G. Whittier in the Christian Union.

The Secret of the Oak.

Last week, says the Wrightsville ga J Recorder
while } J. Brady and Il. W. Cooper were getting
ont some timber in swamp. within 200 yards Of
the graveyard just over Cedar creek. they cut and
split large white oak, in the butt OF which about
three feet from the ground, they found four inches
inside of the surface Of the tree hole that had
been bored about six inches deep with an inch
anger In this auger hole was found lodged at the
heart of the tree a bundle of human hair nicely
wrapped in paper and tied with a strong cotton
string completely seasoned and ncely-made
white oak peg about six inches long was driven
tightly over this bundle. The tree, which has no
sign OF scar upon it, is supposed to have grown
eight inches III diameter since the hole was bored
as it was four inches from the surface TO the head
of the peg. The bundle peg and everything look
ed as fresh and new as if they had been placed
there the day before, Some, who claim to be
posted on the growth Of trees, have made ealcu-
latlon. They say that the bundle must have re
NAMED imbedded in the trunk of this huge tree at
least 80 years

The Report of the Commerce Committee.

We give to-day full abstract of the able and
practical report upon the decadence of our mer-
chant marine and the means by which it may be
restored made by the subcommittee of the House
Committee on Commerce, of which Representa-
tive Russell of Lowell was Chairman The com
mittee maintains that it is not the tariff which
prevents American capital from investing in the
foreign carrying trade, but the fact that manufact-
uring, railroad building and the general develop
ment of the country have afforded better returns
upon money and effort. The committee also finds
that three causes would prevent our people from
competition IN the carrying trade-excessive local
taxation, an inefficient consular service and the
law which requires the payment of three months
wages to seamen discharged in foreign ports The
committee does not believe that free trade in ships
would afford us the means of acquiring large part
of the ocean carrying trade, and it is of the opn-
ion that ultimately the country would be the loser
by policy which would cripple the growing in
dustry of iron ship building The committee be-
lieves that with the abolition of local taxation, a
better consular system and other minor changes
in the laws the granting of moderate subsidies
will encourage capital TO engage in the foreign
carrying trade and thus secure for our manufact-
ures and agriculture markets they do not now en-
joy. Boston Journal.
