Little words are the sweetest to hear;
little charities fly farthest and stay
longest on the wing; little lakes are the
stillest; little hearts are the fullest. and
little farms are the best titled. Little
books are the most read. and little songs
are the dearest loved And when Nature
would make anything especially rare and
beautiful, she makes II little-little pearls.
little diamonds, little dews. Hagar's is
a model prayer; but then It is little
one, and the burden OF the petition is
FOR but little. The Sermon on the Mount
is little. but the last dedication discourse
was an hour. Life Is made up of Titles;
death is what remains Of them all. Day
Is made up OF little beams, and night is
glorius with little stars.
A private meeting OF clergymen Of the
Church or Scotland has recently been
held In Edinburgh for the purpose OF con-
sidering and adopting the draft OF a
High Church Society to be called THE
Scottish Church Society,"" Among its
objects are the fostering Of a due sense
OF the historic continuity Of the Church.
the maintaining Of the necessity of a
valid ordination; the assertion Of the
efficacy Of the sacraments; the promotion
Of religious education on the basis of
holy baptism; the restoration of Holy
Communion to its right place in the
worship Of the Church and the spiritual
life Of the baptized the revival Of daily
service wherever practicable the OBJ
servance Of the Christian year; the
reverent care Of churches and Of church
yards, and the preservation OF ancient
ecclesiastical monuments: the deepening
of a penitental sense of the sin and
peril of schism and the furtherance Of
Catholic unity in every way consistent
with the true loyalty to the Church OF
Scotland. 1t is understood that the
movement is occasioned by the dread
Of Disestablishment, and that those who
favor It wish to put the Church in line
with the Church Of England so far as
they can with safety under the legal
documents by which their Church keeps
its position as an establishment.

ton looking 10 the issuing Of notes by State
banks, in the event Of the repeal Of the 10
per cent tax by Congress. Would 1t not
be practicable and safe, In order TO give
our people greater facility for raising
money on real estate, or by virtue OF own
ership thereof, which class Of security Is
prohibited to national banks, &c allow all
state banks TO issue an amount OF its notes
equal, or nearly so, to the amount Of Nir-
ginia State bonds they may deposit with
the treasurer Of the State CT Virginia 10
secure the payment OF their notes? the
State guaranteeing the notes, which, OF
courSe. would not increase her liabilities,
as her bonds would be deposited as coIlate-
raj security. II such law did not mt once
put our bends at par, which the State OF

low a circulation equal 10 the market value
Of the bonds. OF course IL would require
great care and thought 10 prepare a bill
which would cover the details CT such a
scheme, yet I hope / have made my gen
era idea clear. This plan would not ne

HOLY HOLIDAYS.

10 has been said that the poet Tenny-
son was always unable TO give express
sion 10 the passion OF JOY. Perhaps this
was largely owing to the fact that he
was the poet OF his time and the poet
81 his country. Joy does not enter very
largely into the life Of the modern world.
People nowadays are anxious, curious
and restless. They plan for the future,
they search for knowledge and they labor
incessantly. The only remedy for this
tension Is a little more self-distrust and
a little more trust in God. The habit Of
waiting upon divine Providence is a re-
markably restful habit. Casting all
your care upon him." is a great saving
of nerve power. Of spiritual and intel
lectual energy; Il IS likely TO leave more
room for an unfettered play in the in
stincts Of simple enjoyment, such as are
seen i'm children. An act OF thanksgiving
10 God is an attributing TO him Of all
the blessings we enjoy. The great ma
uonal festival OF Thanksgiving looks
back with gratitude TO the past, with
hope and confidence 10 the future. 1.-THE
Coy OF harvest" becomes real only when
81 IS founded upon a recollection OF the
bounty the unchangeableness and the
coincidence OF God Life can have no
real holiday unless II be also a holy day.
True Joy springs from religious depen-
dence upon Cod Rejoice in the Lord
Away. and again I say unto you, re-
toice' There can be no better correc-
tive TO the feverish haste and care Of
modern life than the due observance
each year OF the day on which thanks
and praise are given 10 God for his past
nnercies The thought Of his providence
alone can give leisure and undistracted-
ness for the experience Of that joy which
should be part Of life here as it IS re-
vealed in Scripture as part Of the better
life in Heayen.-The New York Church
