In small country town in Hartford County, Connecticut, widower who had acted the part of a brute and ty- rant to his wife, went shortly after the demise of his wife to pay his respects to a buxom widow, who like her suitor had not the best reputation for suavity of manners and meekness of temper.- The following coloquy ensued:

 "Wcll, madam, I have come to see you.'

 "Wcll, you may just clear out again, for III have nothing to do with you I You needn't think to get me, sir. You abused and whipped your first wife, and know what kind of a fellow you are. You can bet high on that"

 "Yes, I did; and if I had you I'd make you toe the mark. I'd give you good threshing every time you de- served it, and wouldn't let you vote if every woman in town ran to the polls with ballot in her hand"

HUMOROUS ScENE.--An aged clergy man speaking of the solemnity attached to the ministerial office, said that du- ring the whole term of forty or fifty years that he had ofiiciated therein, his gravity had never been but once dis turbed ill the pulpit.

 On that occasion, he noticed a man directly in front of him leaning over the railing of the gallery, with some thing in his hand, which he afterwards discovered to be huge chew of tobac- co just taken from his mouth. Direct ly below sat man fast asleep, with his mouth wide open. The man in the gal lery was intensely engaged in raising and lowering his hand, taking an exact observation, till at last, having got it right, he let fall the quid, and it went plump into the mouth of the sleeper below! An involuntary smile forced itself upon the countenance of the min- ister.

PARENTS OF DoDGEvILLE! What are you
thinking of?-We wish it to be distinctly
understood that we were in dead earnest
when we recommended $4,000 tax for
the erection of a new School House. Do
we need it? We have not a single room,
used for school room in the village that
is fit for the purpose. They are all old,
brokenAown, worn-out affairs, and it is
fact that children are in danger of contract
ing deadly disease by attending them, for
sney can never be made comfortable in
them, besides there is not room for more
than half the children in the buildings.
Therefore we think it should be admitted
that we do need new school house. Can
we afford it? The valuation of the village
is.not Tess than 100000. 1t would only
require five per cent. on this amount to
raise $4,000. Is there any one so poor
that he cannet afford to pay that small pro-
portion Of his property for the erection of
a school house? Ifthcre7is,a q subscription
could be raised for his. benefit. There is
plenty of money in the village which would
be forthcoming without embarrassing any.

strain required to be put on to build the

we can afford the school house, so let us

1t should never be forgotten that
the happier a child is the cleverer
he will be. This is not only because,
in state of happiness the mind is
free, and at liberty for the exercises
of its faculties, instead of spending
its thoughts and energies in brooding
over troubles, but also because the
action of the brain is stronger when
the frame is in a state of hilarity. the
ideas are more clear, impressions
of outward objects are more vivid,
and the memory will not let them slip.
This reason is enough for the mother
to take some care that she is the cheer.

If she is anxious or fatigued, she will

IF we need higher illustration not
only of the power of natural objects
to adorn language and CRAFTY taste,
but proof that here we find the high
est conceivable beauty, we would ap-
peal at once to the Bible. Those
most opposed to its teachings have
acknowledged the beauty of its Ian
guage, and this is due mainly to the
exquisite use of natural objects for
illustration. 1t does indeed draw
from every field. But when the emo
tional nature was to be appealed to,
the reference was at once to natural
objects, and'throughout all its books,
the stars, and flowers, and gems, are
prominent as illustrations of the
beauties of religion and the glories
Of the church.


THE wilderness and the solital y
place shall be glad for them, and the
desert shall rejoice and blossom as
the rose.


"The mountains and the hills shall
break forth before you in singing, and
all the trees of the field shall CLAP
their hands. Instead of the thorr
shall come up the fir tree, and instead
of the briar shall come up the myrtle
tree"


The power and beauty of the same
objects appear in the Saviour's teach
ings. The fig and the olive, the spar
row and the lily Of the field, give pc
culiar force and beauty to the great
truths they were used to illustrate.


The Bible throughout is remarkable
in this respect. 1t is a collection OF
books written by authors far remov
ed from each other in time, and place
and mental culture, but Throughout
the whole nature is exalted as a revel
alton Of God. It's beauty and sub
Unity are appealed to to arouse th,
emotions, to reach the moral and re
/ ligi0us nature. This element of unit,
runs through all the books where re
/ ference to nature can be made. On,
of the adaptations of the Bible tt
the nature OF man is found in the sub
lime and perfect representation of tn
natural world, by which nature is eve
made to proclaim the character ant
perfection Of God. No language cal
be written that so perfectly sets fort
the grand and terrible in nature AM
its forces as we hear when God an
swcrs Job out of the whirlwind. n
higher appreciation Of the beautiful

The Rothschilds, in 1865, loaned
the Pope ten millions of dollars, re
ceiving therefor security in the pro
perty of the Church. The next year
five millions more was advanced and
a second security taken at higher
rate of interest. This year the va
cuum in the Pontifcial treasury is six
millions, and it must be filled in the
same way. Thus the Jew is rapidly
getting the available property of the
Church under his control. No one
believes the Pope will ever remove
the incumbrance. The final owner.
ship of the property is therefore a
very interesting question.
