I walked through the garden lilies,
And found in the 'street oue
A great black spider. *laving
Ills shining web in the inn,
Airily, swiftly darting
Tu and fro as be spun,
Till the glittering mesh was woven,
The silver snare was done.
I taw In the moonlit garden
A lover and Maiden meet;
FIN eyes were true and tender, •
And his words how Ottreand sweet I
Why did I think of my Illy—
The very fairest one—
And the great black spider weaving
His cruel web In the sun,
CONCERNING THE Seri-
A preacher once endeavored to teach
same children that their souls would live
after they were dead. They beard his
words, but did not understand them.
He was too abstract ; he shot over their
heads.
Snatching his watch from his pocket,
he said: "James, what Is this I hold In
my hand?"
"A watch, slr."
"A little clock," said another.
"How do you know it is a watch?"
"It ticks, sir."
"Very well ; can say of you hear it
tick?"
"Tea, sir, we heir it."
Then he took oft' the case, and held
that in one hand, and the watch in the
other.
"Now, children, which is the watch?"
"The little one in your hand, sir."
"Very well, again. Now I will put the
case aside—put it away down there, in
my hat. Now let useee if you can hear
the ticking."
"Yes, dr, we hear it," cried several
voices.
"Well, the watch can tick, and go, and
keep time, you can see, when the case, is
off, and put in my hat. So it is with
you, my children; Your 6ody Is nothing
but Me ease. The soul is inside. The
case may be taken off, and buried in the
ground ; may be cast Into the fire, or
thrown into the sea, but the soul will
live on just as well without the body, as
this watch will keep on ticking when the
case is laid aside."
Now, that illustration and that thought
will live iu the minds of those children
forever.
WHAT ARE You LIVING FORT—A pas
tor walking out recently, met a little girl
belonging to his 13oek. As they walked
on together, he spoke to her of her stu
dies, and was pleased to find her mani
festing an interest amounting almost to
enthusiasm in the cultivation of her
mind:
"But why, Ellie," asked the pastor,
"are you so anxions to succeed In
your studies? What, do you expect to
do with your education after you get it?"
' "Oh sir," said the girl, "I want to
learn that• I may do some good In the
world. I don't want to tell the Lord in
the day of judgment that I have lived so
long in the world without having done
any good in it." •
IMEZEIZI
Noble, purpose! Who of our young
friends are studying and living to so
good an end ? Who of us ure making
impres for good on the hearts and minds ,
of those among whom we move?
GOD Cot;Nrs.—A brother and sister
were playing in the dining-room, when
their mother seta basket of - cakes on the
tea-table, and went out.
"How nice they look!" said the boy,
reaching to take one. His sister earnest
ly objected, and even drew back his band,
repeating that it was against their moth
er's direction.
"She did not count them," said he.
"But perhaps 'God did," answered the
sister.
So he withdrew from the temptation,
and, sitting down, seemed to medit ate.
"You are right," replied he, lookin, g at
her with a cheerful yet serious air, "t kod
does count; for the says the hairs- of
our heads are all numbered."
THERE was a dry old fellow out in .lef
ferson county, in thin State, who called
one day on the member of Congress elect.
The family were at breakfast, -and the
old man was not in a decent trim to be
invited to sit by; but he was hungry,
and determined to get an invitatiou.
"What's the news?" inquired the Con
gressman.
"Nothing much, hut one of my neigh
bors gave his child such a queer name."
"Ah ! and what name was that ?"
"Why, Command Eat"
"Come and Eat 1"
"Yet., thank you," said the old man.
..r don't care if I do," and drew up to
the table.
A GENTLEMAN Who was about to trav
el on a French railroad bad, at the time
of entering the ear, an unlighted clgor
In his mouth. Observing that there ws.s
a lady in the compartMent, he wise
about to replace the cigar In his case,
when, to! from the lady's feet there
arose a fierce dog In a threatening at
titude. At the same time the lady
snatched the cigar from the gentleman's
mouth and threw it out of the window,
with the remark: "I dislike smokers;
they make me ill." The gentleman,
with n polite bow, ?clothed: "I do not
like dogs, they annoy me." Then, seis
ing the animal by the back of the neck,
he pitched him after the cigar.
A cnat. was wronged by a man In La
porte, Indiana. When Its full extent
became known, she procured a large
bowie knife, and sought him out.. She
found him In an outhouse and sprang
upon him. He fled to the house, and
she followed. As she ran she picked
up some boulders. He fastened 'himself
into a mint. She threWis boulder against
the panne!, made a breech and then
entered. He cowed into a corner, and
she slas'ied away at him miscellaneously,
horribly disflghtltig illm. - He finally
yielded, crying: "I will marry you, or
anything else, if you will only stop."
She stopped, and they were married that
same night. The excitement brought
together a large crowd.
Lrrrrx. MIFF.—Some editor says that
the .destiny of the world often hangs on
the smallest trifles. A little miff between
Charles Bonaparte and his love Letitia
might have broken off a marriage that
gave birth to Napoleon and the battle of
WaterloO. To which a cotemporary
adds : "Yes, that is a fact. Suppose a
little miff had taken place between Adam
and Eve ! What then?"
Drama the late political canvass in
Massachusetts, the Demoliratic rallying
cry was "Adams and Liberty ;" that of
the Republicans, "Bullock and Baud
Beef."

Multitudes of persons haves great hor
ror of going out of doors for fear of taking
cold; If ills a little damp, or a little win
dy, or a little cold, they wait, and wait,
and wait; meanwhile, weeks and even
months pass away, and they never, dur
ing thit whole time, have a single breath
of pure air. The result is, they become
so enfeebled that their constitutions have
no power of resistance; the lewd, thing
in the world gives them a cold; even
going from one room to another, and.
before they know it; they have a cold
all the time, and this is nothing more
or lees than consumption. Whereas, if
an opposite practice had been followed
of going out fur ap hour or two every
day, regardless of the weather, eo it
is not aetully falling rain, a very differ
ent result would have taken place.
Shut your mouth in going from a
cold to hot atmosphere, as well as the
reverse; this simple operation brings
the temperature of either a cold or hot air
to the natural standard before it reaches
the lungs, by making it take the circuit
of,the head; whereas, if the mouth is
kept open, it dashes down upon the
lungs like a shock. Whether asleep or
awake, we should accustom ourselves
to keep the mouth shut; the advantage
it our sleeping hours is that we do not
snore, we do not have the night mare,
I flies, bugs, and spiders do not crawl down
the throat, and we do not tell tales in
dreams; the benetits in the daytime are
that it induces a more healthful, deep,
full, tud free action of the lungs, pre
vents lemma, rable chills and colds, and
eaves many a domestic sorrow.—Dr.
Hall's Journal of Health.
A GOOD LOVE Bloat.—An Ohio paper
tells the following novel story: A young
couple planned an elopement, the girl
descended from her room on the tradi
tional ladder, hut at the gate they were
met by the father coll the girl and a min
ister, by whom the young couple were
escorted to the parlor, where, to their
surprise. they found all their relatives
collected for the marralge ceremony,
which took piece at once. It was a neat
paternal freak, but not near as neat as
that of a "fond patient" we know
He heard his daughter and her felliw
plan an elopement. The next day the
old man waited upon the young one,
andaildrewed him thus:
"You're a tine, brave youth, and I
don't object to you as a son-in-law.—
Here's a hundred dollars to aid in erope
inent. May you live happily in the
same house. and no accident occur to
throw the least shade on the sunshine
of your life. All r request is, that you
elope with my daughter—she's a mighty
nice girl, you know, but somehow her
mother and I could never travel smooth
ly with her—we don't know her good
points—elope with her to such a distance
that she won't return to her loving
father and mother any more. Good bye,
sonny, and may you he happy,"
There was an elopement that evening
of one. The young man was unaccom
panied. He thought everything couldn't
be right 4 when the old cock was so anx
ious to get rid of the girl. The father
looks upon this act as a very neat bit of
strategy.
C'mAft,terErtirrfc.—Recently a small,
fine-looking, bright boy went into the
railroad ems and took a seat. Shortly
after a minister came in and took the
seat opposite, facing Lim, when the
following conversation ensued : "Well
my little lad, what is your name?" said
the minister. "My name Is James Foot.
What is yours?" "William Hand,"
was the answer. 'Where are you
going?" asked the minister. "To Rome,
sir; and where are you going ?" was the
response of the boy. The minister could
ds no less than answer, "To Camden."
"Sow - old are you?" was the next ques
tion of the minister. "Eight years," re
plied the boy.—" How old are you, sir?"
The minister hesitated, but gave an• an
swer.—" Are you alone?" was the next
question of the minister. "0, no," said
the boy, pointing to the passengers, "I
bave plenty of company." "But you
have no friends on board to look after
you ?" asked the minister. "No, sir,"
said the boy; "have you?" This was
not answered, but followed by a little
history. "When I was a little boy,"
said the minister, "my parents would
not allow me to go off the *farm alone."
At this the boy, with an indescribable
/oak, said, "It is different now."
A TOUCIIIXO instance of connubial
&Section and devotion occurred not long
epee in New Hampshire. An aged couple,
wks during half a century of married
life kad wrangled and quarrelled with
eaeh other, were in all probability soon
to be separated. The old husband was
taken sick, and was believed to be near
his 'sad. The old spouse came to his
bedside, slid after carefully examining
and taking stock of his condition, ex
claimed :
"Wy, daddy, your feet are oold, and
•
your bands, are cold, and your nose Is
oold!"
"Wa'al, let um be cold!"
"Wy, daddy, you're gain' to die!"
"Wa'al, I guess I know what I'm
'bout I"
"Wy, daddy, wane to become of 711 C If
you diet"
"I dunno, and don't care! Wet I
want to know is, mat's to beoum of met?
At this stage of the colloquy our re
porter judged that the correct and deli
cate thing for him to do would be to re
tire. He retired.
AN EDITOR TIGIIT.—We believe it
is rare that editors indulge In a drop,
but when they do, their readers are sure
to find them out. A cotemporary was
called upou to record a "melancholy
even t" at a time when his head was rather
heavy, and did it up after the following
manner:
"Yesterday morning at 4 o'clock P. 31.,
a mao with a heel on the hole of his
stocking committed arsenic by swallow
ing a dose of suicide. The Inquest of
the verdict, returned a Jury that the
facts came to the deceased in accordance
with his death. He leaves a child and
six small wives to lament the end of his
untimely loss. In death we are in the
midst of life."
THESE once lived In Georgetown, D.
C., $ tanner namedAmtbony Hyde. His
sign was as follows:
Hyde's my name,
And hides I buy;
Four cents for green,
Eight cents for dry.

A NEOIIO DISCITSSION ABOUT E l / 1 38.
In the fairest village of Western New
York, the "nulled pawns," in emulation
of their white brethren, formed a debat
ing society for the purpose of Improving
their minds by the discussion of instruc
tive and entertaining topiss. The delib
eration, of the society were presided over
by a venetable darkey, who performed
the duties with the utmost dignity peen
day to his color. The subject for discus
sion on the occasion of which we write
was, "WhlCh am de mudderof the chick
ens—de hen wot lays de egg, or de hen
wat hatches de chick ?" The question
was warmly debated, and many reasons
pro and con were urged and combated
by the excited disputants. Those In fa
vor of the latter proposition 'were evi
dently in the majority, and the president
made no attempt to conceal that his sym
pathies were with the dominant party.—
At length an intelligent 'darkey arose
from the minority side, and begged leave
to state a proposition, to this effect:
"SpotoT, i ' said he, "ciat you set one dozen
duck eggs under a hen, and dey hatch,
which am de mudder, do duck or de
hen ?" This was a poser, was well put,
and nonplussed the other side, even stag
gering the president, who plainly saw
the force of the argument, but had com
mitted himself too far to yield without a
struggle; so, after cogitating and scratch
ing his wool a few minutes, a bright Idea
struck him. Rising from - his chair, In
all the pride of conscious superiority, he
announced : "Ducks am Lot before de
house; chickens em de question; der
fore I rule de ducks out!" and do It he
did, to the complete overthrow of (hoop
-
onents.
A RAT TAMlM.—they have a rat-tamer
in Paris named Antoine
• Leonard. kits
theatre is a sort of a perch which be
sticks in the ground, and then he takes
his corps de ballet out of his pocket. At
his word of command the rats run up
and down the perch, hang on three legs,
then on two, stand on their heads, and,
in fact, go through a series of gymnastic
exercises that would put Biondin him
self to the blush. Him crack actor is a
gray rat he has bad in his troupe for
eleven years; this old fellow not only
obeys Leonard, but la personally attach
ed to him. It is a most carious sight to
see Leonard put him on the ground and
then walk away. The creature runs after
him, and invariably catches him, how
ever many turns he may take to avoid'
him. An Englishman offered flity francs
for him, about two years ago, but Leo
nard would not separate from his old and
attached friend.
HOW TO OET MARRIED FASHIONABLY.
—The fashion now Is, at church wed
dings, to stretch a broad white ribbon
across the aisle np which the bridal par
ty pass, above which none but invited
guests are allowed to sit. The brides
maids enter in pairs unattended by gen
tlemen—the groom with his future moth
er-in-law--the bride with her father.
Two of the groomsmen precede the whole
party, and the others behind. After the
ceremony, each of them gives an arm to
one of the maids, as the party leave the
church. At least such is the latest Phil
adelphia fashion.
A DISAPPOINS3q.:NT.--Somebody tells
the following joke on that Irrepressible
genius, George Francis Train : "As an
illustration of Mr. Train's intense patri-
otism, we may relite that he on one occa
sion sent his wife on a ninety days' voy
age from Australia to New York, that
their coming child might be born on
American soil, as it would become a pos
sible future President of the United
States. The journey was a most. trouble
some one, and the lady came very near
being shipwrecked, but at last reached
this country In safety. The child was
born, and it was a girl."
As a train was approaching Peoria, 111.,
the other night, the prairie was discover
ed to be on fire for miles around. The
flames leaped up to the height of thirty
feet, and spread for seven or eight miles
apparently. The train ran directly
through the belt of dame, which extend
ed across the track. The heat was In
tense, but the current of air, caused by
the motion of the train, prevented the
cars from being in the least blistered.—
The passengers on the train say It was a
splendid tight.
A LONDOZi paper sails the plate at
Windsor Castle, for the um of her Majes
ty and tho Court, "weighs nearly thirty
tons, and that its value may be roughly
estimated at 83,000,000. It is secured in

Ax exchange, in speaking of the mag
ical strains of a 14114-orgaur 8a95:
"When be played 'Old Tray,l we
noticed eleven puppies aittihs in front of
