WEARINESS.
0 Little feet,'that such long years
Mast wander on through doubts and fears,
Must ache and bleed beneath your load;
J. nearer to the wayside inn
"Where toil shall cease and rest begin,
Am weary, thinking of your road.
O little hands, that, weak or strong,
Have still to serve or rule so long,
Haveistill so long to give or ask!
T. who io fndeb with book and pen
Have toiled among my fellow men,
Am weary, thinking of your task.
0 little-hearts, that throb and heat
With such impatient, feverish heat,
Such limitless and strong desires! •
Mine, that so long has glowed ‘and burned,
With passions into ashes, turned,
Now covers and concealsils fires.
Q little sduls,, ns puje and white ‘ ( i
And crystalline as rays of light
Direct from heaven, their source divine!, •
Refracted through the mist of years,
How red my setting sun appears,
How lurid looks this soul of mine !
LUCIUS STREET.
“Look out, Ellep. right across tho street,”
saijd My., Walden, laying his paper on his knee,
and speaking to his wife. who. sat at the opposite
front window. •• Do you see that young man? "
' “‘Yes', Henryj I happen, to know jwn—k>ne of
your clerks,'- and the lady turned her face, most
sweet, most fair, from the beautiful child, to
whom she was tossing up and down a cluster of
silver-Voiced bells, and listening to its crow of
triumph.
" TKas one, of my. clerks, you. meanf; Ellen.
That’,4 tt|o Very young man we, turned, qff last
week for helping Jiimself ito a ten dollar bill out
of our drawer. You remember I told«vou about;
it.” , - ;•
“ Xos, but I never suspected; that he was the
one. You know he brought me’messages several'
times from the .store,, and I was always pleased
with his bright} pleasant, courteous-manner. He
had’nt the face of a rogue, Harry.”
,‘f JSfP} this tots his first Wenoe/' Ibelievh the
boy wa« as honest when he came up from, the
cohiittyas ever one Was/but -be fell ifrto bad |
company, and there was an end of him. There’s i
no trusting boy or man after the first theft,” and
Mr. Walde.u toqk'up his paper. .... ,
His wife glariced ! sadly aei'Css the street to the
slight young figure which was slowly passing out.
of her range of vision. She,remembered, its
id,'alert step, which had struck her a little while'
before, and fanoied* there Wfia remora and de
pression in the altered bearing Then her glance
dropped on the sweet face with the wide bloom
in its cheeks, and the childish wonder and joy I
iif : ltb i ey'e&, aUcThet' fthatt pitifdi. and reach-*!
ed out with a half mother yearning after the
Blight, half-droopiog figure which had ju t pass-.
ed by. .... !
She thought of him,'friendless, disgraced, de
solate, this youth; jn the great .City, so full of all
temptation and enticement; and she thought, too,
of the mother he must once have had,-and who
was just as proud and fond of him,as she was of
her own boy, and involuntarily tbis kdy whom
wealth and luxury, and all that is jgopd and to
he desired in life', had not spoiled, reached out
her handp With a quick gesture of.alarm and pro
tection to her child.
The gentleman oppbsito her, with his pleasant
face and portly figure, anshair a little sifted with
gray, caught the movement, and looked up from
his paper.
Wthat is the matter Ellen ? ” -
She smiled, half apologetically.
“ I waa thinking, dear, what if that boy were
ours ! ”
•’ Mr. “Walden looked down on his small heir a
little touched.
“ I shall never place him in the r midst of such
tempfations as my warehouse” ■
“But this boy had to meet them, and because
bo failed once, it seems to me that it was hard.to
turd him right out itlto the-cold and'dark of the
urirld.” '
- Mr. Walden smiled a little. -
“ O, Ellen,” he said, “ that would sound very
pretty in a story, and sentiment of this sort is
very attractive in a woman like you; but it don’t
do for us business men. We’ve got to be up to
the mark, hard, and and prac
tical." t > ’ • ' 7
“And yet, Harry, yon businesswen have had
mothers to love yon, and have sons*in your turn
to love. That is the. hayd,'straight, practical
truth.” ••. ' '■ j ~ ■ ' V, - ,
When she paused, her husband said, “Why,
Ellen, tvhat makes you take such an interest in
this clerk, whom you’ve never seen half a dozen
times? ” ,
“ I don’t know, Harry. /Perhaps it’s because I
look at my own boy and yours.”
“ Well, to please you, I’ll promise to take him
back once more, and give him a trial ”
And Mrf, ; Walden 'rqsej to her
husband, pushed away the; black hair sifted with
gray from hi? .forehead, and the kiss which fell
there was the warm, sweet, fragrant kiss of a
lovely wife-. , ; ... ; . ,
Half an hour later, Lucius Street was retracing
his steps through the wide street flanked with
its stately homes, down which he had wandered
unconsciously, for some spirit of unrestand unhap
piness had taken possession of him that day, from
which he vainly tried to deliver himself.
. Suddenly a voioe called him on the opposite
side —“ Lueijia! Imejps Street! ”, T'X
He turned, and there standing on the broad
stone steps of-Ms ] dwelling, wga Mr.;
beckoning to him. A blush burned up into the.
hoy’s cheek; he hesitated.'
, Ajbd again,Mr. Walden’s voice came, over to
him kindly, biii; authoritatively !—f“ Lucius I Lu.-
cius Street l” And it compelled his steps to,thjß ;
gpntVsmap’t side. • A.. -- A ' .'-A.’’
Air. Walden looked on his. former clerk with
kindly eyes, which,were.not:to ibe mistaken*
li 'Come in# Lucius, come in,” he said.,. ,■ ■
; And the youth followed him into the great
parlor, whose gorgeousness fairly dazzled bis
eyes,- and seating him in one chair, took another ‘
by his side, and looking at Hini,’said in a kindly
voice, “'Lucius, you haVe ari honest faee, andyou
had an honest name till that time, and because of
it; if you! had told the truth, we would have’for
given and kept Jou.” r : ' f ’ : •
•'The' tear£ strained themselves into, the boy’s
eyes, bis breast heaved,,every limb shook. Mr.,
Walden was touched. He bu<l his hand on the
hoy’s shoulder,
' •‘Tell ine-the truth now, Lueius," he said;
“you shall not be sorry for it.” A
• The bdy looked up; his face was white, and
worked fearfully. At last the half-coherent words
struggled'out. • • .1
“It’s all ,dim and blurred to me,,Mr., Walden;
bttt I s’pose I did 'take the money, although 1
can’t remember very welhtho wine had got into
my bead,” . °
Mr. Walden shook his head. “Bad company,
bad company, my boy,” he said.
“ It was the first time, the very first time in
m y speaking steady and fervent this time.
“ I believe you; and now if, because of this,
we take! you back once more to your old place,
will you promise, for your own sake, not to fail
again, to' ayoid all temptations of 1 evil wine and
wrong companions, for they have made you fall
onee, and they will inevitably drift you to your
rum -
“I will promise you, sir,”, *
“Then be back,'Ldcidl, : to y6ur old place to
mbrtow ifiorning" ' ' ~ , , •
The boy buried his fade iu' his haiids, and
burst into tears—tears which, in his ease were
the blessed .“latter rain," in which,dwelt repent
ance afrd a new purpose. And Mr. Walden,
touched beyond his usual self, laid his hand on6e
more on the boy’s shoulder, and spoke to hijn
WPJ* #lmp»t;fatherly in their tone, ani even im
vited him to remain to supper with liis family;
but the reinstated clerk declined doing this-
And when Lucius Street wont out on the side
walk once more, it was not as he went in.
That night, at “ Spark’s saloon," half a dozen
young men and boys, bent on what they called
“ mischief" and “fun," waited vainly for another
to join their company. The barn was fired; the
flames spread beyond the original intentions of
the incendiaries. Much valuable property was
destroyed, but Lucius Street was not there to see.
He was faithful to his new •ovenant. He with
stood .the jeers and persuasions of his old com
panions, the temptations and enticements of his
, city life.
As his years grew into manhood, ho arose to
new positions of trust and responsibility in the
great warehouse, and always filled these to the
satisfaction of the proprietors, and at last became
head clerk in the establishment. And it was
not till the evening of his appointment, whieh
transpired ten years after his reinstatement in
the warehouse, that lie related to Mr Walden
the evil into whieh he had fallen at that time.
“I was on the brink of an awful precipice, sir,”
he said, with emotion whioh fairly choked his
words. “Jtly ruin was inevitable, and it was you.
under God, who saved me.”
“ Not I ( " interrupted Mr. Walden, almost as
much moved as his clerk, “ it was Ellen, my wife,
who did it all. You owe the thanks to her"
! And then the-senior partner, .whose hair was
not now sifted, but crusted, with silver, related
mil which had transpired between, himself and
;wife that afternoon in his sitting-room, ten years
ago. And the young man., wept' like a T . child
.again, • ■ ■ - ■„ . -
“ I never knew before what made Mrs. Wal
den so kind to me;’ 1 he said“ I understand it
ail now." 1 . ; t
A* Come up to, supper to-night,.and .tell her
with your own lips,” said Mr. Walden.
And Lucius went, and hearing it, Mrs. Wal-.
den wept for-joy, and thanked God in her heart.
How few women, take any interest in the life,i
moral or physical, of their husband’s clerks and
employes !. And here, at their very doors, open
’out great avenues,- through which they may walk
llike ‘ministering angels, speaking good; true

GLEANINGS FROM THE FOREIGN MIS
‘ SIONARY FIELD.
Visit os Korannas to the House op the
, Isa. 2: 3. “And many people shall come and
say : Come ye and let us go up to the mountain
of the Lord, to the house:of the God’of Jacob,
and he will teach us his ways and we will walk
in his paths.” , ’
One evening the missionary H Moffat, who
labored among the Bechuous was sitting in his
cottage, when a. company of individuals rode up
and halted before he got to the door. Thev
were four iu. number. , From his seat on his ox,
one of them .hailed.; out, “Where shall 4 we find
lodging—where shall we sleep?" “It was
»;ohief of the Korannas, yvitli friendly
mienajad wise expression of countenances’ “ What
[has brought yob hither ?” t inquired Moffat. “1,
jhavo coiue to see you,’.’ answered Moshhen look-'
jng at bjoffat.They ■ now dismounted’arid ex
amined/the: cottage and all that was in it most
thoroughly.; “’Now I will-sleep." (He hud
ibrougnt food forihimself and his-compahy, which
pays nota. littlc,fhr such a South-African heathen.
The next Moffat had an earnesfcarid fijioiidly
conversation with the attentive heathen, teaching
him theuaying truths of, the G,ospcl, repentance
towards “God ( and faith in Jesus Christ, 1 our
Mediator and Redeemer. But Mosehen did not
seem particularly moved. Seizing Moffat’s hfthd
he said, “1 came .to see you and have enjoyed
my visit; farewell,!’ and returned to his home.
It is one hundred and> fifty miles to tho Yellow
river. Six months passed. Suddenly one day
Mosehen made his appearance again. Several
of his people were /with him. Seven days and
bights through dark wastes and paths beset with
terrors they had journeyed. But how altered
was the appearance of Mosehen! The distress
of kn unquiet mind was depicted on his counte
nance.. “What has befallen you, what is the
matter ?” asked the missionary in a sympathizing
manner. “ 0,” said the Koranna, * when I
visited you the .first time, I had but one heart;
now I have come with two hearts. I cannot
rest for the great things you have told me."
The word of divine love had taken root in his
neart. Two passages in particular had struck
him, “ God so loved the world ”■ John 3: 16.
and “ Jeans Christ came into the world to save
sinners,” 1. Tim. 1:15. He could not cease
thibking and speaking of this love. And it had
penetrated the heart of many a one who heard
him. Again they must visit the white man.
They were hungry for his words, they wished to
be filled. The Spirit of the Lord drew the-poor
sinners. So they came and remained a long
time. At length they took their departure with
mapy wishes that Moffat would visit both them
and the many who were riot able to go after the
saving word, but who nevertheless hungered
after it just as milch. “Look at me" said
Mosehen," “ deny me if you can !” Who eould
resist such entreaty? Moffat did go and preached
the Gospel among them with the happiest effort.
"Mosehen became a truly devoted Christian,' and
in the severe trial ol the last Caffree war. stood
firm.

jEuteka, lamed by disease both in ,the Bands and’

’as he was passing his residence, in the middle of
jthe road, and cried out-: “ Welcome servant of
God,'who has brought the light into this land of
darkness; to thee we owe the news of redemp
tion.’’.Upon Williams’; asking what he ,k,neyr
pf the word Redemption, he replied : “ I know
about J esus Christ who.-has come into the world
.to save .-sinners.” Upon further inquiry! he
answered : “ I ,know that he is the Son of God,
and that he died on the cross as the- lamb of
God, to’ pay a ransom for the- sins of all men
that their souls might be saved and go to heaven.”
Williams asked him whether all: people went to
heaven after death- “ 0 nohe answered.
“ Only they who believe in Jesus Christ, , who
i>ut away their sins to. pray to God." “ Then do
you pray ?” - “ Yes indeed I I pray very often
in the day, ,and morning and evening .besides
with my wife and child.” The missionary asked
him what he said in his prayer- ) He answered :
U I say, 0 Lord! lam a great sinner, may Jesus
fake my,sins away through his precious blood.
Give,me the righteousness of Christ that it ihay
adorn me, and give me the Holy Spirit that he
may guide me, and make my heart good, and I
may become a man of God s and go to heaven
when I die. ’ ‘-Bat whence did you gain your:
knowledge?” asked Williams- “Only from
you. Who else bet you lias brought us the’
message of salvation ?” “ Yes,A but I do, not

IMPORTANCE OF THE BATTLE OF GET
TYSBURG.
■This battle of three days will compare; in mag
nitude and far-reaching consequences, with any
■of dsc great battles of modern times. In the
battle of Waterloo, the Allies had -72,000, the
French 80,000 men; in ■ this the Rebels bad
90.000, the Federals about 60,000, men. The
British-had 186• cannon, the French 252; the
Rebels had' upwards'of 200, 'and we “ah'equal
number. • The Allies lost 20,000 in killed and
wounded; the French.4o,oo.o in killed and .woun*-
ded, prisoners and deserters; the Federals lost
about 4,000 killed, 12’;000, wounded, and 4,000
prisoners, or, in all about* 20,000; whilst the
Rebels lost 5,500 killed, 21,000 wounded, 9,000
prisoners; and : 4000 .stragglers and deserters, or
a total of about 40,000.- The. proportion of men
and of losses', in both battles, is nearly the same.
The battle ,of Waterloo resulted in effectually
crushing the power of Napoleon and the grinding'
deapositism that he was cxercifeing over Europe
It broke to pieces that army in whose track fol
lowed desolation , and famine; and whose-final
triumph must have resulted in the destruction
of ail the then existing, governments of th'c civiU
ized- world. The battle" of “Gettysburg fdsulted,
first, in cheeking: the-progress aind then in.des
troyingthe power 0 f a well-disciplined: and de-b
fiant army,..which bad come to the North for the
express purpose of robbery and of spreading.ter
ror and desolation in its track, and, by the capture
of Baltimore and Washington, of dictating to us
the most humiliating terms of peace. The sway
of Napoleou-over subject Europe wotrld-nrot have*
been more tyrannical and destructive of the vital
“interests of the people, than would’have been the
. establishment, by a decisive victory of Lee, of an
overbearing slave-power as a controlling influence
iu our country. The fall of . Vicksburg and of
PortTludson, which followed immediately after
the battle of Gettysburg, though of the highest
importance to the country,-ig, nevertheless, not
equal in its influence to the breaking of thjo power,
of an army which was striking a blow at the heart
ot the nation. In the of Lee
the corner-stone of that fabric, which the rebellion
sought to erect on human bondage and the dis
tinction of the races of men, which God has
made of one blood, is crushed to pieces, and the
•bright days of a happy future loom up before our
vision, when we shall once more be a united and
prosperous people.— Prof. Jacobs.
HEAT AND WATER.
In winter the surface of massesof water,Such
as lakes and rivers, are acted upon by the eool
air resting upon them, and are gradually, and
ih very frosty nights, ,of course, very rapidly
cooled. As the water is cooled on the surface
the particles become denser, and the particles?
go down below,; and abstract the heat from the
portions below-, If,(his, went on, the .pooling
would Be a very rapid process—as rapid ak the
process :of heating, in which the heat is convey
ed throughout the fluid: but the moment the
water has cooled,to 39-20 (about 1° above the
freezing point),,it.is no.longer, payable,of con
tracting by the cold, but the watifr at' the sur
face becomes lighter than the water below, and
Abating,, forms a sort,of Blanket of water, Which
protects the water below;.from the cold :■ water
being a.very bad conductor of heat. ; v
' Of, SO.Rak water .ex
pands both bjheai and .cold, Water requires;
more heat than the same weight of any other,
li.qufd.or splid to raise its,,temperature through
. a given number of degrees, One cubic mile off
water in cooling through one degree warms
3.Q76 cubic‘miles of air through .4° ; hence, the:
effect of w&er surrounding portions of la&i-~:
surrounding islands-»the effect of the sea upon
thq climate ,of islands. The air passing over
the surface of the ocean in summer is cooled hy
the water which absorbs beat without becoming
much cooler. 1 ; ■! “One: cubic yard of ice, in
ing'cools 21,000 cubic yards ot' air from 52 0 to
3S?s; ” hence we can, understand the Upon,
clitoates of dense masses of icf surrounding any
sea-cost. ' , ' ■ • , ~
AWater gives off & larger quantity of heat than
any other substance, in order to have its tem
perature reduced from one point to another..
This property is called its specific heatA Water
is therefore endowed with peculiar properties
whereby it retains.its fluid condition for a long :
period when exposed to cold. If it we*re not for
this provision ofnature, our climate would be un
inhabitable, owing to the vast; masses of ice
which would be formed'during winter, and the,
frequent frosts that would vist our fields in coo!
summer evenings. ,
SLEEP.
Thefe is no fact more clearly established in.
the physiology of man.than this, that the brain,
expends its energies and itself during the
hours. of wakefulness, and that these are, re
cuperated during sleep; if the recuperation
does• not equal the. expenditure, the brain
withers-—this is insanity. Thus il ls that, in”;
early English history, persons who were con
deqmdd ’ fP, death by Vheing prevented/,' frpht
sleeping/ always died raving maniacs; thus it
is, also, that those who are starved to death be
come insane; the brain is not nourished, and
they cannot sleep. The practical inferenees. are,
■these*:.,■ - ■ , - ■ '■
1. Those whb think most, who do most brain
work, requird most * sleep. ' A , A . A
2. That time, saved ,hrom sleep is
infallibly destruetiyie to, mi'nd,/,b6dy,'and estate.
3. dive' youfself, your’ chdd.reU/ your ser
vants—give all that are under you, the fullest
amount of sleep they will take, compelling
them to retire at some regular hour, and to
rise the moment they, wake; and within a
fortnight, nature, with almost the regularity
of the sun, will unclose the bands of sleep the
moment enough repose has been secured for
the wants of the system. This is the only
safe and sufficient rule; and as to the question
how much sleep' any one requires, each must
be a rule f6r himself. Nature_ will never fail
to write it out to the observer under the regu
lations just given.
THE AMERICAN FUR TRADE.
■ Respecting the vhlue of this important traffic,
the St. Paul (MinnL) Press says:—“ On looking
at the. books of our dealers, w.e find that 3500
bison or buffaloes hsjve fallen Victims to the arrow
or the bullet on our Northwestern prairies, to
supply civilized mitn with robes to keep him
warm-in the wioter.l These robes will always be
a standing article ftjr such purposes. They cost
about 87undressed.I An equal-number of wolves
—which fact one heais with-pleasure—havealso
bitten the dust to [supply our fair countrywomen
with elegant sleigh robes, worth $2 each, to keep
out the. biting, air while gliding over the snows
of the northern winters. The bruin family be
wail the loss of 950 ursine memlers. These
skins, costing from 610 to §2O, are also, used for
sleigh covers and for military, purposes, as are
1.050 of the red fox, worth about §2 50 each.
The mink, • now mercilessly pursued, since his
pelt is worth from! $3.50 to. 85, contributes 28,
000 skins toward those elegant man ties and cloaks
that every lad oovets. The muskrat species are
prolific, and l have-given us fully 250,000 skins,
worth 80 to 85 cents each. Of the more rare and
oost-ly furs, 2,258. otters have been captured from
their lacustrine retreats, to do duty in the shape of
gloves, &0., at 86.t0 87 per pelt, and 540.“ fis
hers” have been trapped, yielding’the fortunate
hunter .88 to 810 apiece. The marten family,'
one much prized, lost 1,600 members, enriching
the trapper at the rate of 85 to 810 each. Of!
the cross fox, a very scarce- and rare animal, only
76 have been caught. - Good specimens bring
820. , .
During'the winter-a trapper brought in, among
a lot of peltries, two skins which, as nothing had
ever been seen here like them before, were cal
led the blue fox. They seem to be a hybrid be
tween the cross, fox and the silver fox. 1 No one
jenew their -value, and -they were.sold at 82 each.-
The skins brought 825 each in, New York city.”
The chief causes of colds are two; Ist, cool
ing off too soon after exercise; 2d, getting tho
roughly chilled while in'a state of rest, without
having been overheated—this latter originates
dangerous pleurisies, fatal pneumonias (inflam
mation pf the lung's), and deadly fevers of the
typhoid type. 1

Is by .the. Secretary,of the Treasury .to.
continue the-sale of,-this, popular Loan, and,TEN
DAYS.pnblic notice will be given of discontinuance..
ABOUT TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS remain,
unsold, and this amount is scarcely sufficient to fur
nish a basis for the cir culation of the National Bank
ing Associations now being formed in every part of
the country. But a short time must .elapse before tils.
Loan is wholly absorbed, the demand’ from .Europe,
Germany especially,'being duite actiVe.' ■
As it is well known that the’ Secretary ;of the Treas--
ury has.ample and unfailing resources.in, the. duties
on imports;., internal revenues, and; in the issue of in
terest-bearing ’Legal ' Tender Treasury: Notes, ,it is'
nearly certain that it- will- not be necessary for' him,
