TOM WILSON MAKES A DISCOVERY,
 Lawrence Loyejoy and Tom Wilson were fast becoming popular speakers ln the cause of the poor of Lancashire and York shire Wherever they were announced to speak crowd was sure to gather. and the league was good deal the stronger for the seasonable words which they said and the hard work winch they did
 Tom had been speaking at meetings in fine West riding for week, when, on the Sunday following, he found himself ID Leeds wiLh nothing particular to do. In the even ing he straYed away down the HHnslet road, which soon brought him to "A small, uupre. tentious Baptist chapel He stepped into the porch and listened for few moments to the preacher who was by no means one of your highly cultivated aristocratic cler- gy. He preached 10 poor and ignorant working people, and the people understood what he sald and were the better for it, Tonight his theme was the story of the Saviour feeding the five thousand, and as he warmed up m his discourse he spoke of the burning question of the day in such heated language as to raise a strong mur- mur almost amounting to applause from the congregation. Tom stepped in quietly and took seat near the door, but not so quietly as 10 escape the eye of the minister who, i with much earnest, homely eloqueuee, Was | telling his hearers Of scene of poverty and misery which had come under his notice that very day.
 After the address dt could hardly be called sermonl was concluded, Tom, who was recognized by the preacher, was invited to take seat on the platform, and was
 introduced to the audience, 10 whom he had to say a few words. At the conclusion of the meeting the preacher asked Tom If he would like to sec for himself some of the terrible results of protection to farmers, and, on receiving an answer in the affirma- tive, led the way to q narrow street CT alley, lighted at the entrance by one oil lamp.

HYMNS THAT MOTHER SUNG.

Throughout the changing scenes Of life. That shadoved vale Of smiles and tears, Where all | lost W thin the mist That hides the bygone years Some strains there are that finger still, And many hearts no logger young Are thrilled with joy. again 10 hear The hymns that mother sung. We used to gather at the hearth When darkness oyercame the day, And, dreamtly, as children VIII,
 We'd watch the shadows play; And sitting by the glowing fire,
 As to and fro the kettle swung, We learned thu songs we've always loyed- Tue hymns that mother sung. We seem 10 hear again her voice, So long remembered, clear and sweet, Al when. ill days of long ago,
 We sat at mothers feet; And gazing upward on the wall,
 Where dearest fathers picture hung, We thought ho smiled, for he, too, loved The hymns that mother sung. On many snowy winter nights.
 When all without was cold and drear, We've clustered close around her char In happiness and cheer. No more for us the glowing fire,
 No more the crieket's ehirping tongue, And never more on earth we Il hear The hymns that mother sung. To them we owe our happy homes, Praise be to God who reicns above, For Keeping ever bright and clear The lessons learned in love. Outiiving sorrow, bearing hope,
 The dear old songs have always clung, And never can the heart forget
 The hymns that mother sung

An Insurance. Clerks Good Fortune.

Hartford Conn Times, November IS.
1t isn't often that a young clerk still in his
teens has $4,000 placed in his hands to do
with as he pleases and to use as his fancy
may dictate; yet this was little event that
occurred last week to Roe Grant, young
man who lives on Vine street with his pa
rents and who is employed In the Offices of
the Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance
Company IN this city. Young Grant held
one-twentieth of ticket 1856, which drew
the first capital prize of 10000 IN the
drawing of The Louisiana State Lottery
Company on the 18th OF October. The lucky
young man was questioned by a newspaper
man and he emphatically denied having
won the $1,000. but expressed himself as
being willing to receive such sum. Since
the interview the newspaper man has learned
that Grant did receive the money; that it
was paid to him by the manager of the
Adams Express Company in thus city, and
that two supernumerary policemen guarded
the house the night the money was kept
therein. All this was done without the
knowledge of Grants parents, but when
they, too, found out how fortunate the son
had been, immediate efforts were made to
suppress its publication.

Zeal in good cause is good, espe-
cially if it be "a zeal according to knowl-
edge" A highway surveyor in Ger
many was called upon to build new
road. He proceeded with his task in
an industrious, methodical manner, and
after much labor and pains taking, the
road was staked out.
1t was Saturday night when this part
of the work was Finished; and before
going home the surveyor called upon
the mayor of the parish. He explained
what he had done, and added, Il must
ask you to see that the poles are not
stolen over Sunday
Monday morning the surveyor was on
hand in good season to proceed with his
job, but every stake had been carried
of. He went in haste to the mayors
house.

The Mormon Church i'm Boston.

Boston has a genuine Mormon
Church; not Brighamite, but es-
tablished and founded on the principles
of the Book of Mormon as written by
the prophet, Joseph Smith. 1t is known
as "The Reorganized Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter Day Saints, and its at
tendance has increased from its organiza-
ton with six members in June, 1864, to
a present roll of 100 in active service,
while the converts who have been
baptized within its precincts during this
interval, have been counted by hun
dreds, and are now scattered through
every section of the country for the con-
version of still others to their faith.
This church dates its origin back to
the time of the first prophet, Joseph
Smith, ST., "who," so say its records,
instituted the church because of in
struction he had received from heav-
emily visitant." He is its first presi-
dent" and to him, the whole body, in
cluding the branch at Boston, looks for
its primary instruction. The church in
Boston belongs to the eastern mission
which embraces the New England
States, New York, Eastern Penn
sylvania, New Jersey, Nova Scotia and
New Brunswick, with adjacent islands.
In many of its articles the "Epitome of
the Faith and Doctrines" of the Boston
branch, as of the others, is quite similar
to the creeds and confessions of faith in
the other churches, while in some it
differs widely, as follows: Confrma-
ton, following baptism, is administered
by the elders. There will be two resur
rections; the first is for -the just, who,
with Christ, will inhabit and control the
earth for thousand years. The second
resurrection is the final judgment which
will condemn all those who have know
ingly" done evil. The article relating
to marriage proves quite conclusively
that there is great difference between
the Brighamite faith, as regarded polyg-
amy, and their own beliefs. 1t reads:
I'VE believe that marriage is ordained
Of God; aud that the law of God pro-
tides for but one companion in wedlock,
for either man or woman, except in
cases when the contract of marriage is
broken by death or transgression. The
church is said to be reorganized be-
cause it believes that all other religions
are schisms from the original body and
that it alone is founded on the Word of
God,

In 1855, when some of the soldiers
came back from the Crimean war to
London, the Queen of England distrib-
uted among them beautiful medals,
called Crimean medals. Galleries we're
erected for the two houses of Parliament
and the royal family to sit in. There
was q great audience to witness the dis
tribution of the metals. AColonel who
had lost both feet in the battle of Inker-
man was pulled in ON a wheel chair;
others came in limping on their
crutches. Then the Queen of England
arose before them in the name of her
government, and uttered words of COM
mendation to the officers and men, and
the four great battlefelds. Alma, Bala-
klava, Inkerman, and Sebastopol. As
the Queen gave these to the wounded
men and the wounded officers. the bands
of music struck upthe national air, and
the people with streaming eyes Joined
in the song:
God save our gracious queeni
Long live our noble queen!
God save the queen.
And then they shouted -Huzza! huzza!"
Oh, it was proud day for those return
ing warriors! But a brighter, better and
gladder day will come when Christ shall
gather those who have toiled in His
service, good soldiers of Jesus Christ.
He shall rise before them, and in the
presence of all the glorified of Heaven
He will say: We'll done, good and

tribute the medals of eternal victory.
