very enjoyable trip to points of interest in the
United States.
SEVERAL OFFIcERs of the United States Navy
have met at Yokohama to investigate the recent
loss or the Ashuelot, they being sent out for
that purpose.
RUMoRs are current in Toxic of fresh COM
plications between China and Russia, relative to
the old Kuldja and Iii quarrel. 1t appears that
the ratification of the frontiers are not proceed

tinual causes of disputes are arising, which may
lead at any moment to the breaking out of
hostilities.
The JAPANESE GOVERNMENT have issued new
Newspaper Regulations, +" containing forty-two

Woman's Voice.

Not in the swaying Of the summer trees,
When evening breezes sing their vesper hymn
Not the Ministries mighty symphonies,
Nor ripples breaking on the rivers brim,
Is earth's best music these may have awhile
High thoughts in happy hearts, and csrking cares
beguile.
But even as the swallows siIken wings,
Swimming the water Of the sleeping lake,
Stir the still silver with a hundred rings
So doth one sound the sleeping spirit wake
To brave the danger and to near the harm
4 low and gentle voics-dear woman's chiefest
charm.
An excellent thing it is, and ever lent
To truth, and love, and meekness ; they who own
This gift, by the all gracious Giver sent,
Even by quiet step and smile are known;
By kind eyes that have wept, hearts that have sor-
row'd,
By patience never tired, from their own trials Dor
row'd.
An excellent thing it is-when first in gladness
4 mother looks into her infants eyes
Smiles TO its smiles, and saddens to its sadness
Pales at its paleness, sorrows at at its cries;
Its food and sleep, and smiles and little joys
All these come ever bent with one low gentle voice.
An excellent thing it is when life is leaving
Leaving with gloom and gladness. joys and
cares
The strong heart failing, and the high soul grieying
With strongest thoughts, and wild unwonted
fears
Then, then a woInan's low, soft sympathy
Comes like an angels voice to teach US how to die.
But a most excellent thing 1t is in youth.
When the fond lover hears the loved ones tone,
That fears, but longs, to syllable the truth
How their two hearts are one, and she his own {;
1t makes sweet human music-Oh the spells
That haunt the trembling tale a bright-eyed
maiden tells.

plodding slowly, leaning wearily upon his
stout staff "Good morning, Father New

rocks for chat" and as the old man as
sented and took off his hat to enjoy the re-
freshing breeze, the young man went on,

which consults the interest of the whole
people. We design to build up manufacture
ing interests by it only so far as the gain is
shared by us ALL When the farmer votes
to lay duties upon foreign products, and so
temporarily enhances their cost to him, he
submits to the loss only in view Of much
greater subsequent profit Let the manu-
featuring and other protected interests OF
the country understand this well. If they
will play fair with the farmers, demagogues
like Esq. Philpott may come to them in
broadcloth Ia little hay-seed carefully busted
into their ambrosial locks) and talk to them
(with bank.notes, railroad retainers, and
British gold in their pockets) in vain.
Share and share alike, gentlemen manu-
facturers, and the farmers will stand by
you in behalf of any reasonable amount OF
protection. But don't be greedy. Don't
try to monopolise. That word monopoly"
is hateful to free people. Be satisfied
with moderate gains. Be just to the sons
and daughters of farmers who labor in your
factories. In short, don't over-reach your.
selves in haste to be rich. The present agi-
tation against revisal, or any sort of reform
of our cumberous, and in many cases un-
just and absurd tariff, will play directly
into the hands of the free-traders. DR..
Hamlin sees this point, plainly. He says
with great wisdom 1T should always be
kept in mind that there is great danger Of
exaggeration in a protective policy. Every
powerful industry will exaggerate its claims.
If the free-trade 'doctrinaries,' though per-
haps never destined TO rise TO the dignity of
party, can nevertheless do something
toward moderating the excesses of protec-
tion they will not labor in vain nor spend
their strength for naught. The theory of
free-t rade shows beautifully in the lecture
room; where all comment and awkward
questions can be avoided; but practical,
men, farmers and mechanics, i orth and
south, east and west, grow more and more
disposed to distrust its application to this

mountain, and yet in my vain glory be-
lieved It depended upon me to keep IL in
position SO, my young friend, the Church
of God depends not upon any one man.
Before man was, the truth was. Men are
Gods instrument for promulgating the
truth. The Church of Christ, nurtured by
the Holy Spirit is everlasting and unchange-
able. Men whom the Church hath nurtured
may become puffed up with pride at their
success in trying to preach the gospel, and
go down, but the Church shall not go down"
Parson Powers used to tell this story when
an old man, and say, Good old Father
Newbury's practical lesson saved me from
the fate Of the oak tree. 1t Topped off the
supernuous outshoots of pride that were
making me top heavy, and caused me to
strike my roots of faith down into the strong
foundation grounds of truth. left the
church soon after, as had planned to do,
hut instead of going down God blessed it
continually in answer to the prayer of a
faithful few, and was willing to scknowl-
edge with all humility that man alone can
not inspire work of grace."-Christian al

An Endless Story.

The story of Jesus Christ, from the
manger to the cross, from the Jordan to the
Mount of Ascension, is a story without an
end, 1t can be dwelt upon perpetually and
not be exhausted. 1t is, as the apostle says
of our Lord, the same yesterday, to-day
and forever" 1t is a spring that never
ceases to flow; an ocean always full. If we
select any one event in the Saviour's his
tory, any vital doctrine of the gospel and
begin to dwell upon its substance, its con-
nections, and its lessons, how the lines of
thought and duty and interest stretch away;
reaching from the depths of sinful heart TO
the final inheritance of the saints sweeping
perhaps from one eternity to the another /;
now ranging in the footsteps of Jesus, in
the places whera he taught, or dwelt, or suf-
fered and now hearing his parallels and
witnessing his miracles and then lingering
at the sacraments of the church and then
contemplating the world to come, the judg-
ment, and the final awards Sometimes we
are alone aud sometimes in crowd some
times with demons, and sometimes with
angels sometimes on earth, and sometimes
in heaven but always with Christ,--Chris
