An Ancient Plague.

A planter from Honolulu came lately
to Philadelphia to consult the physiI.
clans of that city. He had been for
eight years a leper, pronounced incura-
BILE by the native doctors. Having SUI
ticient means, he has travelled from one
eminent medical authority to another.
in the vain hope of escaping the merci-
less disaster which has laid its inexora.
BILE hold upon him.
Three years ago the Companion pub.
lished an account of the existence Of
the Asiatic leprosy in Tracadie, New
Brunswick. We received soon after.
from DR.. Jones, President of the Louisi.
ana Board of Health, a report of an in.
ve%stipation made in the Lafourche,
region, where the disease has existed
since the peopling of the shores of that
bayou by the Arcadians. Fourteen
cases were discovered. Since that time,
this most terrible Of all diseases has ap-
peared in some of u Northwestern
States, having been brought there by
Scandinavian or Chinese immigrants.
Now hat skillful modern observation
has made us maasurably familiar with
this malady, the Scripture account of it
gains terrible reality and force. 1t wa
always used, as our readers will recol-
lect, in the days of the Savior, to typify
sin. W. can better understand this
comparison after having seen a living
leper.
The physician in charge of the hos.
tital for lepers states that the first symp-
ON of the disease is a smooth, white
spot in the skin, painless and scarcely
apparent. 1t extends very slowly, does
not interfere with the daily @avocations
of the victim, and is not offensive to
himself or others. Then ONE a loss
of the sense of touch; the flesh growing
numb. Hearing and sight 60 next
Then the whole body quickly decays,
and the man becomes a walking death
in-life-a visible horror among his
fellows.
Could anything better symbolic the
progress of evilin aman? The habitual
little fault, at which we laugh in our.
friend; the yielding to ar agreeable
appetite-how harmless and trivial q
thing it is-how slowly it grows. Pres
emily the mans sense of wrong seems
slightly blunted. His moral nerves are
dulled. Then, with fatal rapidity, he!
grows blind and deaf to all the good in
tluences about him, to all innocence,
purity, truth, to his mothers love, to
his God.
After that the descent is swift. The.
poison taints every part. Strength,
manhood yield. The man becomes an,
active power for evil in the world. He
transmits the disease to his children.
He imparts it to all who come near him.
His touch is corruption; his breath is
death! .
For the leprosy of the soul, as that of;
the body, there is no hope of cure but in
the mercy of God. ,
But here the resemblance ends. For
the poor leper, hunted by his kind, will
some day cast off the corrupted body,
which has tortured him SO long. ITS
poison and decay he will leave in the
grave. But the man who goes out into
the darkness beyond death, with evil on
his soul, takes it with him-to what end
who car tellP-Youth's Companion.

The foregoing item, which has ap-
Peared in a country paper published at
Sidney, o., is another evidence of the
vindictiveness of some publishers where
the cooperative papers affect their
receipts for advertising and subscrip-
ton. Section z of the Postal Law,
approved June %, 1874, says: ''That
newspapers, n copy to each actual
subscriber residing within the county
where the same are printed, in whole
or in part, and published, shall 20
free through the mails; but the same
shall not be delivered at letter-carrier
offices or distributed by carriers unless
postage is paid thereon as by law pro-
vided." From this it will be seen that
the Postmaster Generals rulings have
been anticipated by the National
Congress, and the proposed decision
would be illegal and Of no effect

But use the time remaining to me yet;
Not mine own pleasures seeking as before.
Wasting no precious hours i'll vain regret.

But in Thy service hand and heart employ,
Prepared to do Thy bidding cheerfully;
Be this my highest and my hottest joy.
Teach me to live! My daily cross to bear.
Nor murmur though l bend beneath its

Only be with me. Let me feel Thee near.
Thy smile sheds gladness on the darkest

Waiting with cheerful patience, till Thy. call

A New Vocation for Tramps.

A band of musicians neatly uni
formed in blue, with frogs and chevrons
and silk tags on their coats, and shining
gold cords and buttons on their caps,
turned into a quiet uptown street yes
terday forenoon, and pitching their
music-stands on the shady side, began
the famous ''Tell'' overture. The OPEN
ing movement soon brought to some of
the windows knots of ladies and chill
dren; a ~janitor stopped sweeping off the
sidewalk in front of a row of flats; a
grocery boy ceased whistling and sat
down on a stoop to listen, and a tramp
leaned against a lamp-post and viewed
the scene with a cynical air. When the
musicians came to the end one of their
number, taking off his hat, began a
round of supp1icating chances at the
tenanted windows. Plainly the poor
waits were not in luck that morning.
and when a second-story window was
coyly opened, and q little paper wisp
came futtering down from a shapclv
hand, the collector of the troupe was
looking around another way and failed
to see it. Not SO the tramp. He saw
the window open and noted the gesture.
A glance assured him that the men of
melody were lost in a melting strain
from Strauss which they were now dis
coursing. Slowly and pensively he
strolled across the street; leisurely he
approached the paper pellet; accident
ally he kicked it; casually he picked it
up. and guiltily he quickened his pace
until the musicians were behind him.
As he opened the ball and extracted
from its folds a brand-new dime, his eve
caught the quizzical look in that of the
resting j%anitor. "Well, fndin's is keen
ms" he exclaimed aggressively. But,
probably recognizing a kindred spirit,
he added contidentially, Think I'll take
to follerin' q band."-M Y. Herald.

"With a scream of rage he bounded
back"
Cognac Immediately shot forth his
head and insulted him with ieering
barks.
"But he was not to be drawn again,
and after a bit he lay down further off
and pretended to go to sleep. Cognac
barked at him til he was tired, and
then retired into his castle.
"Reloading, l found 1 had only three
bullets left, and concluded to reserve
them for a crisis.
1t was now past noon. To beguile
the time, l smoked a pipe or two, sang
a song, and cut my name, Cognac's and
Marengo's on the tree, leaving a space
for the lions, which determined should
be Wellington. 1 wished he would 90

l took a drink, and should have liked to
give some to Cognac. The lion began
to pant, with his red thorny tongue
hanging a foot out of his mouth. He
was a NANCY and disreputable-looking
brute as eve I saw. By-and-by he got
up and snuffed the air all round him,
and then, without as much as looking at
me, walked off and went deliberately
down the road.
"Slipping to the ground, I caught up

after looking carefully around for the
