FRATERNAL affection finds a rare illustration in two brothers now residing in Kennebunk, Maine. A few years ago both started for Calalornid, but one was ta ken sick on the Isthmus and returned. His brother went on, and in a short time accumulated $3600, when be also returned and gave half of it to his brother. They, with their wives, live together, the latter "taking turns" in presiding at the table. THE EYE OF THE NEEDLE.— A recent traveler to the Holy Land informs us that there is at the side of the principal gate of Jerusalum, a small one, which; *pon occasions of great urgency, was opened for ad mission of persons after the great gates of the city were closed for the uight. This gate, from its small size, was call*a the Eye of the Needle ; and to get a camel through it all was ho small task—for a loaded camel to pass was an utter impossibility. With the above fact before the mind, ode can see that the words of our Savior, when speaking of tfefe "strait gate" and the "rich man," were mote literal than many suppose. And we see how, as the rich man passes into the narrow way, the sides and the low top of the strait gate scrape everything from him in which he had betore trusted. No one can take any thing but himself thfough. Far easier is it to strip a camel ©f its burden, than to divest a rich man of his trust in riches. — (J&ristiaA Register. PLANTS IN SLEEPISG-ROOMS. —Daring the night flants breathe out carbonic dcid and absorb oxygen, 'he breathing of plants is therefore at nighflike that of animals; but we must not imagine that they con taminate the air to the same extent. This is a very popular, and at the same time a very great mistake, it has been supposed that growing plants vitiate the air of a sleeping-room inconsequence of the amont of carbonic acid which they exhale, and thht they are unwholesome and ought to be removed, especially from the apartment of a patient. But allowing that they give off carbonic acia and destroy oxygen, yet if everything that does this is to be expelled then t.he lamps must be removed, the lire put out, and all vis itors at the same time. Now although plants do absorb oxygen give ont carbonic acid at night, yet in this instance the pro cess of combustion is so Slight, that although evapor ation has ceased, not the. slightest heat is produced which is perceptible to the senses, or even to the most delicate tests which science furnishes. The ab surdity, therefore, of removing the plants is at once seen. Let them alone 1 whether in flower or not they are doing no barm, and will do good if the pa tient is fond of flowers, —bring back the pleasant memories of the bright sun, the clear blue sky, the healthy breeze, of rambles in the field and ; they are not foes, but friends. I love them. They have of ten driven away sad thoughts. They will continue to cheer me to the end of life's journey. They will take up their watch by my head stone. No matter if it is only a little groundsel, chickweed, or moss; all are welcome, because all are beautiful! Woven by the magic chemistry of Nature from earth and air, colored by the distant sun, each is the work of an Infinite Being, associated with the past and linked with the future of an eternal universe; and natural ists will puzzle themselves about the nature of their chemistry, and try in vain to search out the gra nd secrets of their vitality for ages yet to come, lis we do now. — Once a Week. INTERESTING ABOUT BEES. —Bees which, when wild, make their nests in places totally dark, as in the hollows of trees, are in the habit, when domesti cated, of closing every aparture that can admit the light into their hives, and will only carry on their work in a dark piace. iSehnibler has just made an extriordinary discovery, which, while explaining in a beautiful manner ;hi3 characteristic of the bee*adds another to the many striking examplifictions of that inscrutable power of instinct which which so often transcends reason to himself. Schnibler found that clear strained honey, which, kept in the dark, remain ed unchanged, when exposed to the light gradually chrystalline and solidified, undergoing, through the intluenee of the light, some molecular change, similar to.that impressed upon the iodyne of silver of the daguerreotype plate. The bee, therefore, in order to preserve in the tluid form the nutriment it stores up for its progeny, shuts it up in total darkness. QUININE is now the king of medicines; and while every one regards it as the most reliable and invalua ble of remedies, there are many who think that with quinine and opium they can treat ail diseases. The demand is enormous, and the more especially if we recall the rapidity with which tJbis younger sori of medici ne has come into its rights, into this coun try bark found its way for the first time late in the seventeenth century : and in France it won its en trance into the pharmacopoeia by curing Louis XIV, being used then for him as a secret remedy, and on the following conditions: 48,000 livres, 2000 livres as a pension, and the title of chevalier. . The com munication between French and English physicians was not then complete or intimate, and so this mag niiiceut price was obtained for Fallot's remedy, which was only a vinous tincture of quinine commonly employed in England. Louis XI v ordered its ad mission into the pharmacopoeia; The sources of quinine are, however, gradually failing under the pressure of the enormons demand; and although the British government in forming plantations of cincho na trees in india have met witn success in an import ant degree, yet the best kinds of quinine-bearing trees are said not to have succeeded 60 well as the others. —London Lancet. THE MARRIED LIFE OF JOHN "WESLEY. —When Wesley settled he said "It would be more useful to marry." He married 4 widow, who, through her jealousy, led liim a life of wretchedness and misery. At last his spirit was up, and he wrote to her—■'Know me and know yourseil. Suspect me no more ; pro voke me no more; do not any longer contend for mastery, for power, money, or praise ; be content to be a private insignificant person, known and loved by God and me. ' It was not likely that a Woman would be pleased at being recommended to be au in significant person. After twenty years of disquiet ude ehe one day left him. He bore it philosopnieal ly. He went even beyond it—he took his diary and put the most pithy entry into itl ever met with in a diary: "Non earn reliqui, uon detoisi, uon revoca bo," which may be translated thus: "1 did not leave her; I did not send her away; I shan't send for her back." Aud so ended the married life of John Wesley. THOSE REMARKABLE INSTITUTIONS —The great Pub lic Schools of England, have recently been submit ted to the examination of a Parliamentary Comrni sion,whose lately published report exhioits a states of things curiously at variance with received notion.'. So far from the mass of English gentry (who usually are educated a: one or the other of them) being well grcuuded in classical literature, it appears that any such acquirements are a rare exception to the gener al rule. At Eton, the most popular and wealthiest of the Foundation Sshools, where eight hundred of the flower of British youth are brought up, and where the emoluments of the head master are be tween thirty and forty thousand per annum, the best that can be said is that a boy, if studious, "is not thought the worse of on that account; but all real influence and distinction in the school, are only to be acquired by intense devotion to rowing or crik eting. In fact, the great majority of the Eaton boys are said to lead eday. pleasant lives, spending their ume chiefly in the playing-field and on the river, and not a little of it in the public houses and taps of the neighborhood. Of Hhrrow School, where the re ceipts of the master are even greater thau at Eaton, the record is a'lrtue better, and at Winchester School study is more regarded than ply, most of the hard working clergy being educated there. At Wesimin ster School, where Dr. BUSBY'S awful shadow stil tules, it is stated that the system of "fagging" pre vails so strictly that at the end of his first year a bov cannot only have made no advance, but he must ne cessarily know less than when hecanie. as the whole of his time would betaken up with blacking shoes lighting fires, A A, for the elder boys, so absurdly does English conservatism cling to the worst abuses that have age and precedent in their favor. The only great schools that properly carry out their purpose are declared to be two of minor consequence and rank Shrewsbury and Rugby, and in these the impetus toward good that yet survives are given to two dis- Unguished men, formerly at the head of eaer. Dr BUTLER and Dr. ARNOLD. It is noteworthy how the influence of good, honest and conscientious work dies not with Us originator, bnt continues a directing and sustaining power. Under Dr. TEMPI*, the pres ent able master of Rngby, the school is said to be a model of diligence and,.efficacy, such as the fondest hopes of Dr. ARNOLD rejoiced to anticipate.
