BEECHERs VIEW OF FINE DRESS Es-In
his lecture on 1.-The Moral Use of Luxury
aud Beauty" reported in the Christian
Union, Mr.. Beecher says. "You say, DO
you believe in good dress p l do thor
oughly; l do. Do you think Christian
man ought to dress his wife and children in
expensive silks and sstins and velvets2' II
he is able to do il he ought, if they want to
wear them; but don't believe in your wife
sending to Worth, over in Paris, to get
those magnificent dresses, too short at top
and too long at bottom. / don't, because
think they violate all taste. Ofthese dresses,
| tell you it takes the highest chivslry
possess for woman 10 maintain my faith in
her. 1 believe that woman is better than
man, on the whole; quicker morally, ordin-
srily very quick in practical judgment, and
and disinterested to a degree. But when
see fashion and what it does with her, it
more than shakes nv faith. Look at good,
SENSIBLE, educated, refined women, who will
talk nationally on other subjects, yet when
it comes to dresses this insanity seizes them.
Don't you admire these lines of beauty 2 ,
they ask, dragging three yards Of trail after
them along dirty floor. Lines of beauty !

sixty or eighty such lines of beauty were
crowded in one saloon, where nobody could
see them, but every body could tread onthem.
have from time to time most melancholy
evidences that l have not yet attained
sanctifcstion, for never tread on one Of
those dresses that don't say 'Gloryl' and
if hear the stitches crack at the waist
say Hallelujah i and then / am always
sorry, because it never produces u satisfactory
result on the other side.

THE WEDDING OF saos MAoLE.N
by ROBERT BUCHANAN.

At the wedding of shon Maclean
Twas wet and windy weather.
Yet thro' the wind and the rain
Came twenty Pipers togetherl
Earach and Dougal Dhu,
Sandy of Isla, too,
Each with the bonnet o. blue,
Tartan and blackjack feather;
And every Piper was fOu,
Twenty Pipers togetherl
The knot was tied, the blessing said.
ShOn was married, the feast was spread.
At the head of the table sat, huge ald boar,
Strong sandy of Isla, age fourscore,
Whiskered, gray as a Heskeir seal
And clad in crimson from head 10 heel
Beneath and round him in their degree
Gathered the men OF minstrelsie,
With keepers, gillies and lads and lassies,
Mingling voices aud jingling glasses;
AT soup and haggis, al roast and boiled,
Awhile the happy gathering toiled-
While Snon and Jean at the table ends
Shook hands with hundred of the friends
Then came hush. Thro' the open door
wee Dright-fOrm flashed on the hoor-
The Duke himself, in the kilt and plaid,
With slim soft knees, like the knees Of maid
And he took glass. and he cried out plain:
81 drink TO the health of Shon Maclean
To ShOn the Piper and Jean his wife,
A clean fireside and merry tfe!'
Then out he slips and each man sprang
To his feet, and with 'BoOch" the chambers
rangi
A leap, Scramble-and it was done,
And then the PIpers all in row
Tuned their pipes and began TO blow,
While all t o dance stood fain:
Sandy OF Isla and Earach More,
DOugal Dhu from Kilfannan shore,
Played up the company on the floor
AT the wedding OF Shon MaeieAn
As the wedding of shon Maclean
Twenty Pipers together
Stood up, while ali their train
Ceased TO CHATTER aud blether;
Full of the mountain dew,
First in their phi pes they blew,
Mighty OF bone and thew,
Red-cheekd with lungs ofleather;
And every Piper was fOu,
Twenty Pipers together!
Who led the dancer In pOmp and pride
The Duke himself led out the bridei
Great was the Joy of each behOlder,
For the wee Duke only reached her shoulder;
And they danced and turned when the reel De
gan,
Like giantess and fairie mani
But like an earthquake was the din
When ShOn himself led the Duchess In!
. And she took her place before him there
Like white mouse dancing with bear.
SO trim and tiny, so slim and sweet,
Her blue eyes watching Shon's great Feet.
With a smile that could not be resisted,
she jgged and jumped and tviIled and twisted
Sandy of lila led off the reel,
the Duke began il with toe and heel,
Then all Joined in amain;
Twenty Pipers ranged in a row,
From squiul ing Shamus TO lame kileroe,
Their cheeks ike crimson, began 10 blow,
At the wedding of ShOn Maclean.
At the wedding of Shon Maclean
They blew with lungs of leather,
And blithesOme was the strain
Those Pipers played togetheri
Moist with the mountain dew,
Mighty of bone and thew,
Eacn with the bonnet o. blue,
Tartan and blackjack feather;
Twenty Pipers together.

TIE Sun for 1885,, W i'll make its fifteenth
annual revolution under the present man
and little, mean and gracious, contented
and unhappy, Republican and Democrat,
fuse. The suns light is for manlind and
wonlankind Of every sort; but it's genial
warmth is tor the good. while it pours hot
discomfort on the b1isterinS backs of the
persistently wicked.
The sun of 1865 was Il newspaper of
new kind. It discarded many of tho FORMS
ana a multitude Of the superfiuous words
and phrases of ancient journalism. 1t un-
dertook to report in a frcsh succinct, I'M
emitting no event of human interest, and
comment upon affairs with the fearlessness
of absolute independence. The success of
Sun. 1t effected permanent change in
the style Of American newspapers. Every
important Journal established in this coun-
try in the dozen years past has been mod
ellcd after The Sun. Every important
journal already existing has been modiad
and bettcrcd by the force of The Suns OK
The Sun for 1882 will be the same out
spoken, truth telling and interesting news
paper.
by q liberal use Of the means which an
abundant prosperity affords, we shall make
it better than ever before.
We shall print all the news, putting it
into readable shape, and measuring its I'M
portance. not by the traditionalIy yard stick,
but by it's real interest to the people.
In politics we have decided opin ions; and
are aee Isf e to to EXPRESS them IN Ian
what we think about men and events. That
habit is the only secret Of The Suns poiiti-
cal course.
The Weekly Sun gathers into eight pages
the best matter of the seven daily issues.
An Agricultural Departm ent Of uncqualled
merit, fall market reports, and a liberal
proportion of literary, scientific and do
nestic Intelligent complete The Weekly
Sun, and make it the best newspaper for the
farmers household that was over print ed.
If our idea of what newspaper 81 ould be
pleascs you, send for The Sun.
Our terms are as follows:

DEATH OF MINNIE Myrtle.

From q New York correspondents
letter of a recent date we make the an
nexed extract
Minnie Myrtle, the first wife of Joa-
quin Miller, died a few days ago at the
Woman hospital, after long illness and
great suffering. During her illness
Miller, her divorced husband, who has
a second wife and a child, treated her
with great kindness and affection. He
sent her flowers and fruit every day
and did everything in his power to
make her last days comfortable. She
became reconciled, and all of the old
love returned to the husband she had
ing him. Most of our readers, es-
pecially the ladies, will remember his
farewell to "Myrrh." append few
verses of the poem. recalled by this
sad parting in death:
Farewell for here the ways ut last
Divide-diverge, like dellu'd Milo
AS constant as a column stone
Seeks out the sea. Divorced-alone.
And you and have buried love,
And red seal on the collins lid;
The clerk below, the court aboYe,
Pronounced it dead; the corpse is hid,
And who never crossed your will
Consent that you may have it still.
And you will como some summer eve,
When wheels the white moon on her
track,
And hear the plaintive night-bird grieve
And heed the crickets clad in black;
:Alone-not far-a little.spell,
And say, "well, yes, he loved me
make no murmur; steady, calm;
Sphinx-like I gazed on days ahead.
No wooing word. no pressing palm;
No sealing love with lips seal red,
No waiting for some dusk or dawn
Or sacred hour-all are gone.
| I go alone; no little hands
| To lead me from forbidden ways;
No little voice in other lands
| Shall cheer through all the weary days
| Yet these are yours, and that to me
| Is much indeed So let it DO .

Forty years ago, in a village near
Philadelphia, arrangements were made
for a wedding. The guests were invited
and the bride awaited the groom, who
never came. The girl, crazed by grief,
became a harmless lunatic, and wan
ders through the rooms of her house,
arrayed in her bridal finery, buoyed
up with the hope that her lover will
yet return. Burglars entered her house
lately, and her quick ear detecting their
steps, she stepped out on the staircase
aud greeted the thieves with the words:
81 have been waiting all these years;
am ready; come on" The men
looked at the ghostly figure in its faded
robes, standing with arms outstretched,
and fled from the house.

OUR NAVAL DEMONSTRATION A.
ALEXANDRIA.

| Rear Admiral j. w. A. n ichOlSOn
commands tho American fleet at Alex
andria. If we are to believe the cor
! respondents of the London newspapers,
Admiral Nicholson is proper subject
for two searching examinations; the
first by court martial, the second by Il
commission in lunacy.
According to the accounts sent to
London, as far as they are Ineligible,
the American Admiral refused to get
out of the way when the bonbardment
was about to begin, threatening to re.
turn the fire of the forts if any iron
came his way. He seems to have been
in an extremely bellicose mood. Fail
ing to find an opportunity to declare
war on his own responsibility against
the Egyptian troops, he waited till the
firing was over and then sailed one OF
his ships around each of the British
men-of-war, giving each y "usty
| cheer" He next landed body OF
marines as an auxiliary to- the British
force ashore; and when it looked as if
| there might be a renewal of active hos
| tilities, and the French and Italian
| marines had been withdrawn from the
city, the American contingent "pre-
ferred to stick by the Englishmcn and
take their chances"
Twice, then, Admiral Nicholson
took his chances and was disappointed
He got no fighting. But the spirited
way in which he backed up the British
cause, and the pertinacity with which
he "stuck to the Englishmen," led one
of the London newspapers to remark
that blood is thicker than water, and
to express the hope that Americans
and Britishers will always be found
standing side by side on such occasions
If Admiral Nicholson had anchored
the Lancaster between the Infexible
and the shore batteries, and threaten
ed to return the fire of the British iron
clad in case he was hit by one of her
eighty-one FOUNDERS; or if he had put
his marines at the disposal Of Arab
Pasha, and declared his intention to
stick by the Egyptians and take his
chances, the improperly OF his be-
havior would be apparent to every
body.
The one duty OF the American Adj
miral was to hold off and afford a place
of refuge to citizens of the United
States who might be in danger from
the British guns or from those of the
Egyptians. He was not called upon to
lend moral or material support to either
beiiigerent. .he has exceeded his
plain duty in the least degree he ought
to be punished. If he has acted in any
such ridiculous fashion as appears by
the dispatches from Alexandria, he
ought to be consigned to Rloominr-
dale-LN. Y. StO,.
