| L And all the people gathered themselves to-
gether as one man into the street that was be-
fore the water gate; and they spake unto Ezra
the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses,
which the Lord had commanded to Israel.
2 And Ezra the priest brought the law before
the congregation both of men and women, and
| all that could hear with understanding, upon
| the first day of the seventh month.
3 And he read therein before the street that
! was before the water gate from the morning
| until midday, before the men and women, and
| those that could understand and that the ears
| of all the people were attentive to the book of
the law.
And Ezra the scribe stood upon a pulpit of
wood, which they had made for the purpose !;
and beside him stood Mattithiah, and Shema,
and Anaiah and Urijah, and Hilkiah, and Ma
aseiah, on his right hand and on his left hand,
Pedaiah, and Mishael, and N Malchiah, and Ha-
shum, and Hashbadana, Zecheriah, and Me-
shullam.
And Ezra opened the book in the sight of
all the people (for he was above all the people,;
and when he opened it, ali the people stood up:
And Ezra blessed the Lord, the great God.
And all the people answered, Amen, Amen,
with lifting up their hands and they bowed
their heads, and worshipel the Lord with
their faces to the ground.
Also Joshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Ja-
min, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah,
Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Haman, Pelaiah, and
the Levites, caused the people to understand
the law: and the people stood in their place
And so they read in the book in the law Of
God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused
them to understand the reading.
And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and
Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that
taught the people, said unto all the people,
This day is holy unto the Lord your God mourn
not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when
they heard the words of the law.
10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat
the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions
unto them for whom nothing is prepared for
this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye
sorry; for the joy of the Lord is your strenth.
IL So the Leyites stilled all the people, saying.
Hold your peace, for the day holy, neither |
be ye grieved.
II And all the the people went their way to
eat, and to send portions, and to make great
mirth because they had understood the words |
that were declared unto them.

happened to overhear curious con-

the paintings. It was the beautiful little
canvas of r. w. Hubbard, entitled, ac-
cording to the printed catalogue, "Pool

around it admiring it, when suddenly the
question was sprung; "Where is Aamr'
One gentleman thought that IL was town
in Connecticut, not far from where Mr.
Hubbard has his country seat. An
Irish gentleman shook his head, and
thought that IL was in Connaught.
A well-dressed man with Teutonic ac-
cent remarked judicially that he thought
Aam was hamlet not far from Stuttgart,
and, in fact, he had a distinct impression
that he visited 1t once, in his childhood.
Just then minister came up, and over
hesring what they said, suggested that II
his memory served him right, Aam was an
ancient city in the Holy Land, where
Joshua once worsted the Amalekites. He
thought the account of the battle would be
found in the second book of Chronicles,
perhaps in the fourth or fifth chapter.
Just then Mr.. Leonard, who superintends
the gallery, and who hearing the contro-
versy had disappeared to make some in
vestigations, returned and informed them
that the name of the picture as givin in
the catalogue was misprint, and should
have been "Above DAM"

Agriculture in Holland.

The country of Holland is divided up
into small farms, and very intelligent
Dutchman whom | travelled with tells
me the average is not over fifty acres.
Agriculture is carried on with industry
and intelligence. Nothing is allowed to
go to waste, and the rich fields are
manfred year after year. This ma
nure is so carefully distributed that in
some fields | saw men with pitchforks
going over the pasture fields and divid-
ing the droppings of the cows into
dozens of pieces and scattering these
over the ground about The canals,
which surround every field, have to be
kept open, and the rich black earth
of these is banked up upon the
edges and sown with grass. Farming
in Holland must mean continuous work,
but the ground yields well, and the pas
ture is even now wonderfully green and
fresh.-Cdrp, Ia Clecelaad Leader.
