Then shall these ancient skies Roll up and poi away • The sun shall blush, and hide Its face in dread dismay. The moon shall change and flee; The noon grow dark. as night; The stars shall fall to earth In wild and sore affright. Alas ! alas alas ! To whom, in that great day, Shall the sadi sinners flee, On whom for refuge stay 7 Lost, lost, for ever lost I Too late too late I he"ories Lost, lost, for ever lost I The second death he dies.

Boon were distributed,' scholars com ineileed their studies, but Grace took nolnore notice of Stephen Wright, aiad perceived that he occupied himself in catching - flies and pill ling off their wings, and in tormenting scho lars who sat near him.. Two little boys com plained that he had stuck pins in his .boot, and was constantly pricking them ; anOther "complained" 'that he had grid — hi - The bench; kinds' of tricks *ere played by, him ;rand, when he was z tired, ,he,laid head dewn upon the desk and46nt sCiind / Aleefi. Grace proceeded lidgefiilly with the rest ; a few sullen spirite.at first refused obedience, but when they found that the spirit of the school was with the new teacher, they be came ashamed, and, one by one, laid down their weapons of rebellion. She walked among them with such a self-reliant manner, and was so fully prepared to teach what she professed, that a feeling of respect was ra pidly expelling the demon of insubordination. -But Grace had not forgotten Stephen; when recess arrived, she seated herself by his side. He had just awoke with a yawn, and was stretching out his limbs and arousing himself for play. The wise young teacher was determined to thaw the ice ; but not a word about books, studies or school was to be broached that day. She had made np • her mind that all such propositions should come from him, and she was sure that Stephen would come and ask for , employment at last. "Are you fond of fishing; Stephen ?" asked Grace, giving her first , tap on the shell of his dullenness. He started, and turned, surprised, to look at her ; for,- in former' days, -lie was never spoken to by teachers but in tones of reproof, or else not noticed at all, Seeing that, she really wore a kind expression, the shell slightly yielded, and'he answered, " Yes, I like it when the fish bites ; but it's awful stupid' when' the fish:lire 'sleepy." Stephen` relapsed again into sullennesi, and turne his head away. Another tap with her magic wand, as she said,— " Where's the best fishing-ground on the creek, Stephen?" and Grace slightly laughed. Stephen impatiently shook off the little hand that so gently touehed his Shoulder. Grace was not discouraged. Another tap on the shell. • , • " I think you might tell me, Stephen ; I'm a stranger here; and Ldci „rally like IV:ash:J.' "Well, then, jest down nyder the big tree ; there's a heap offish caught there sometimes." "Why, Stephen, there are so many big trees there, that it would be a very hard mat ter for me to find the place. Won't you row me clown there next Saturday afternoon, Ste phen ?" The shell was fairly broken, as he answer ed, amazed,— " Why, yes, if you'll go with, a feller that has rich a bad name !" "I'm not afraid, Stephen. I know that you love that old dog by the door; and I don't believe that you'll treat any one badly that is kind to you, said GraCe. , Stephen turned away to hide his fade, Grace could scarcely tell .why; but she thought that she saw a welling apiund his mouth, and she was sure that, he, rabbed; his coat sleeve over his rough face. Observing that he had no luncli f •she 'shared; hers'flvith the boy, who seemed almost choked when he' tried to eat the nice light biscdit. "Is that your dog ?". inquired Grana,:as the old clog rubbing his head against the boy, who patted the dog kindly in return. " Some fellers were abusing him one, day, and I took his part, and bound up his poor, broken leg ; ever since that day, he has been my friend, and follows me , to school every day. Old Prince is the only friend I've got, and we think a heap of each other." " That need not be so, Stephen ; you might have plenty, of friends, if you'd only try to do right," answered Grace. " It's no use ; I've tried many a time, and, because I did not do things as other boys, I never got any word but lazy,' and good for-nothing,' from everybody, even when I tried the hardest. I've given up, long" ago. They've often called me devil, and I don't care if I am one now." 46 But, Stephen, you're not goilig to be one. I'm sure that youll try to do right, if you have somebody to help you." The bell rang ; Stephen took his seat quietly among the other boys ; Grace ob served that he had ceased his tricks, and sat in a brown study all the rest of the day, look ing out -of the window with an absent, ab stracted countenance. When the time Came for closing school, Grace called upon Stephen to fasten the windows for her, and to do other little offices which Jnigtq enlist his kindly feeling. 4‘ Come, Prince," said. Grace, 44 we'll walk along together ; and Stephen, finding that his dog followed the teacher, -joined the same company. They had a great deal of pleasant talk about cows, horses, seasoner' country amusements, ete., and Stephen was surprised when he got home to think how much conver sation had passed between himself and the agreeable young teacher, more than had ever occurred with all the, othera taken together. Grace was convinced that there was an avenue by which she could reach this hard nature, arid awaken hls dormant faculties, that she - was sure lay sleeping there, for the boy exhibited close observation in the re marks which he had made upon subjects with which he was familiar. Next morning, after the classes were• or ganized, Stephen stepped forward, and said, rather sheepishly, "I would rather do some thing than sit here idle, will you please give me some books ?" Grace quietly handed them:; she had hoped that the ,other boys had not \ observed. him, for she felt that this was a critical moment. Un fortunately, john ttunatan had been watch-' ing the proceedings. " Holloa I say, Stei-e, you're knuckling down, are you ; to a woms,n ? I thought you had more pluck ; but I don't belieVe in you ; you're only ,acting." Stephen, in a rage, threw the books across the'roOna, returned to his sullen mood, ex claiming, "I said it was no use; this is the way I've alway.beih- tauited," boys making fun of me; and teachers abusing m 6- Grace was grieved, but she saw that this was not the proper time to speak, for she had often pondered on power of " a right word 'at the right time." Another day of gloorny idleness for Ste 'phen ; but Grace did-not-despair.-lie-re mained .behind to lock up the room, and, in company with Prince, walked - home again with the young teacher. f• ." Stephen ; are you afraid of John Dun , stan?" asked Grace. " Afraid ! not I," answered Stephen ; afraid of, nobody." " Then what made You.throw your hOhltfa . - 1 away after coining to"a study?" -- , "I was in. a 0866* . y1411 . .§;':'' . 0g*cted' the boy. " Yes," said` Grace,, a and you were afraid of being laughed' at; was it not so?- Stephen did not answer; . • .

Next morning Atephen took . his ho t oks again, and, notwithstanding: the wink's and jeers of his schoolmates, he controlled him self sufficiently to master .two lessons,: THIS is the most momentous health pro plem with which we — have to deal; to secure the proper physieal advantages of civ ilization-for American women.' Without this ;there can be no lasting progress. 'The Sand wich Island pro Verb says : " If strong be the frame of the mother . , Her sons shall make Jaws for the people.' But, in this country, it is scarcely an exag geration to sapthat every man grows to ma turity, surrounded by a circle of female relatives,, and the latter finds himself the husband of an invalid wife and the parent of invalid daughters, and that he comes at last. to regard invalidism, as Michelet coolly declares, the, normal condition of thesex— OS if the Almighty, did not knew hew to create woman.. This of course spreads a gloom over life. When I look at the morn ing throng of -school girls in summer,:nurry ing through every street,,with fresh young faces, and,Vestures of lilies, duly curled, and straw-hatted and' hooted, and turned off as patterns of perfection by proud mammas—is it not sad to me to" think that all this young beauty insist` oneday fade and die ?'"for `there are spheres of life beyond this earth,-I , know, and the soul-is good,to endure through, more one : the sadness is in the unnatural nearness of the decay, to, fore See the living death of diSease 'that is waiting close at hand. foils many, to know how terrible a proportion of thosVair children are, unconsciously entering into, a. weary, wretChed, powerless, joyless, maturity., Among the ,myriad triumphs,of advancing civilisation, there seems but one formidable danger, and that is here. It cannot be doubted, however, that the peril will pass by, with advancing'knowledge.

" Then you think I don't know," she replied, " but I do; it is my think." "; Your think?" said the philosopher, astonished in his turn ; who. told you, so`?" "Nobody.. I should be ashamed if I did not know that,.without being told." The philosopher had puzzled his brain kgreat deal about 'the soul, but he could .not,,have given a better definition of , it in so few word. `,Jt iottliantono. EVIL - OF UNBELIEF: t MMT often think that unbelief is a hartn less thing. They sometimes . regard it as, a special proof of meritorious independenCe to be an infidel. They pride themselves On theirphilosophy, and; their, ;' freedom 'from' vulgar,prejudices and priestcraft, perhaps-on their freedom-"from the prejudices instilled by a pious parent, a pastor, or • a ,Sabbath- School teacher.
