broken off, be recovered by tho

res,,,uony Of the senses.

There is woful deficiency 10 the
ms jority of people with respect to see
ing and hearing. Not having been
trained to observe with caro- and scruu-
ny, they see only q ANAL part OF what
they look at, and, as their eyes are
removed, much Of even that part fades
from their memory. They visit lake,
mountain and forest, and return with
only q confused and faint recollection
Of the trea aures of nature upon which
they have looked. They pass through
gaze on fine edihcesI
and witness interesting scenes without
taking In their meaning or being able
to describe them 10 others,
30 In hearing; they only half listen.
With a Preoccupied mind, they gain
only an inadequate or garbled idea OF
what Ia sai6, and a few Fepetitions
from one 10 another are sufficient 70
change the whole m Gaming Of the orist-
nal utterance. Few persons really
know how 10 listen to q lecture so az tt
carry away with them any wsH-arrang
cd ideas Of its plan and subs apce Few
can even report a convbrsatioD accurh,
tely. When we consider how needfu
TO all the departments OF human etfor
the accurancy OF. the testimony OF th'
senses is, we cannot too earnestly CLAIM
their culture.

Love OF Nature.

This passionate love of nature, which
began in the sons OF Imagination, has
from them passed on to the universal
people, and becomes one OF tho finest
characteristics of the time we live in
one of the few offsets we have against
sordid selishness, absorbing pursuits OF
wealth, endless competition, and the
im bittering divisions of classes and
and sects among US.
Ip thie love OF scenery we have q
touch OF that nature which makes the
whole world kin.
NLet each one who has the opportuuf-
ty select those pictures he likes best
look at them attentively, with NO
cursory glance, but with steady, patti
ent, peTsevsripg attention.
Let him steady them as he would q
wise book, till hs has thoroughly appre
headed their minute lines, features
sentiment which every really good pic
ture coptains.
This, done to even one picture OF rea
excellence, will be step in f-educa
ton.
The man who has done it will bea
away, not only delightful image to b
| impressed on memory TO be afterwar'
eujoyed, but he will have had his per
ception of the universal beauty OF tn
| world Whicl encompasses him quick
ened and enlarged, 30 that he will g
forth and look henceforth on earth ant
sky with new and IN ore imaginativ
eyes.
| 1t will be to him as if n new sens
had been given him.

Envy.

The greatest food has the soonest
ebb, the sorest tempest the most sudden
calm, tho hottest love the coldest end,
and from the deepest desires oftentimes
ensues the deadliest hate. A wise man
had rather be envied for providence
than pitied for prodigality. Revenge
barkeJh only at the stars, aud spite
spurns at that she cannot reach. An
en- yious man waxeth lean with the fat
ness OF his neighbors. Envy is the
daughter of pride, the author of murder
and revenge, the beginner of secret sedi.
ton, and the perpetual tormentor ol
virtue. Envy is the filthy sediment ol
the soul-a venom, q poison, quick
Isilver-which coDsumeth the tlesh ano

Burnea 90 Death.

Last Saturday evening, about 0
O'Clock, Emma Harris, oolored girl
aged about IA years, was sitting along
side Of the stove In the kitchen at No.
1910 Lombard street, when she fell
asleep, The stove WAS very bot, and
by some means her clothes came in
In contsct with IL and caught Gre.
W hen she aWoke ehe tried to extinguiBh
the flames, but finding her efforts fruit
less ran mp stairs to the second floor,
where some of the family were asleep
By this time she was enveloped with
the flames, and almost maddened with
the pain she turned and ran down
stairs and out to the street. With wild
screams she rushed out Lombard street
TO Thirteenth, and then back toward
Twelfth street, when she was met by
the family and number of the DeiRh-
bors who had been reused by her cries
of anguish. Goats and pieces of carpet
were hestily wrapped around her. but
by that time nearly all her clothing
was burned eff, and the entire surface
of her body charred nnd hlistered.
She WAS carried In the house, writh-
ing in agony, and DIR. Pyle was sum
moned. AS soon ~ he arrived he
found that in addition TO her outward
burns, she had inhaled the flames, and
that all that could be done would be
20 alleviate her suffsrings. The proper
remedies we're applied to ease her pain,
and although her suffsrings must have
been intense, she bore them patiently
and WAS rational until just previous tC
her dea.h, which occurred shortly be.
fore 4 O'Clock on Sunday afternoon,
The unfortunate girl was an orphan
and lived with the family of Joseph
| w. Brown. She was conscious that
lnothing could be done to save hel
life, and said that she was fully pre-
pared, and willing to die.
