THE VILLAGE CIIVISCHL
The old church in the village lane,
• *chestnut trees half hid from viawi
LoOks all divine—eso window pane
IY stained with every mellowed hue,
Of purple, violet, and of gold,
As Sunlight through the window streams
Where riehly-painted figures hold,
Their glowing SAM of sacred dreams.
Each window diamond-shaped appears,
Still lovely touched with sun or shade;
Or when the rain like brilliant tears,
At morn or evening o'er them wade.'
The moss-Krown walls, the gray old Wirer,
Are graven by the hand of Time;
And in the bells what mystic power,
What holy music in their chime !
And when the bells are hushed, a calm
Sublime and glorious fills the aisle;
While mints-seem listening to the psalm,
With tures carved into a Finkle.
The chestnut trees the windows shade,
And bar the sunlight on the floor;
That seems `to flutter and to fade,
Like sea-waves breaking on the shore.
Far down the aisle the sunshine flows,
First on the painted window falls,
Till there each saintly likeness glows,
And tints the angels on the walls.
And when the organs peal no more,
When every word of praise has died ;
The saints lie pictured on the floor,
In silent splendor side by side!
I KNOW Tait WA .T TO HSAVEN.—These words
were spoken by ;Jule Minnie to little Johnny,
who stood by her side looking on s picture
book that Minnie bad in her hand.
"You do?" said little John. "Well, won't
you tell me how to get there ?"
•
"0 yes, 11l tell you. Just commence going
np, and keep on going up all the time, and
you'll get there. But Johnny, yon Omit not
turn back."
"Well," said Johnny, "I won't."
They had both been looking at a picture of
our Saviour's head pressed with thorns, and
the blood trickling down his face. This ex
cited little Minoie's sympathies, and bending
her little head, she kissed the face of the pic
ture three times, and said aloud to herself:
"My mamma has been teaching me the way
to heaven for a long time, and now I know
the way so well that I can go myself."
Little Minnie is only three years old. How
many grown folks are there that can say they
they know the way to heaven, and can go by
themselves ?
Yes, Minnie has told you all the way—keep
going up, for the way to heaven leads upward,
while the downward way is toward hell—

"I COULD NOT FIND You, HOTILICR."—Amid
all the abominations and illustrations of the
dark side of fallen humanity, seen at the sta
,tion-houses, says the Boston Herald, one oc
punonally witnesses a scene in which the In
dicrous or affecting stands out in the strongest
colors. An incident of the latter class came
`under our observation recently. While in
;one of the station houses, our attention was
attracted to a little boy three or four years of
,age, neatly dressed, playing on the matting
with a cat, and apparently indifferent to the
fact that he had wandered swot from home,
,got lost on the streets, and had ueenlitought
in as a "lost child" by the police. He was
talking in his rbilnish way to the persons who
noticed him, and no one would have dreamed
'that the fountain of suppressed grief was bub
bling up so near to the smiling surface. Just
...then a plainly dressed woman rapped at the
inner door of the office, and was invited in.
She had hardly time to ask, in an agitated
lone, if anything bad been seen of a "lost dar
ling boy," when the little fellow caught sight
of her, and bounding to his feet, ran like a
scared deer to her arms; then clasping his
little arms around her neck, broke forth in a
long pent-up agony of team, elrelslming—"l
could not find you, mother !" The scene was
over in less time than we can tell it, but the
`effect produced on the bystanders, judging by
what we saw on the faces of bearded men,
will not soon be forgotten. The little fellow
was the only child, who bad been compelled
to leave him a few minutes alone in the house.
A. /LIMB BUID. —The following beautiful
incident is recorded in the Pittsburg Dis
patch
The noble deeds of robin-red-breast have
been celebrated for generations in both song
and story, and the tender sympathy which
this bird is supposed to feel for stray babe
has gained for it the highest opinion of the
nursery. A painful little circumstance which
will interest our young readers, and at the
same time serve to confirm their regard for
the robin, was brought to light after the fire
at the residence of Mr. M'Callum, a week or
two ago. In a tree near by, a robin had built
her nest, and hatched her brood. The bird
lings were too young to fly, and although the
dames progressed, and the heat became more
and more intense, the mother bird refused to
forsake her nest, and perished in her efforts to
protect her little ones from harm. The nest
;was afterwards discovered, andthe parent was
found, with her little brood still under her, but
all were dead. What a wonderful instinct has
Ose Creator bestowed upon this little creature;
that would impel it to menace its own life, in
a manner so peculiarly painful, in its efforts to
shield s tie helpless little ones committed to its
charge Surely, many men and women
might learn a lesson of wisdom from this mar
* bird.

A WASHINGTON STORY.
Mr. Gay, senior of the National Hotel,
Waebington, bear quite a resemblance to the
late' General Caw upon which is told a good
Y-
A stranger who supposed that he knew Mr.
Gay well put up at the National. Since this
house has become a crack hotel at tile Capi
tal, it is quite till all the time, and the new
corner was necessarily for the first night sent
to the up-floor to sleep. Coming down stairs
in the ,morning a little cross, he met Gen.
Cass there, who had a fine suite of rooms in
the hall. He stepped up to him and said :
"rr. not stand it ! You have put me at the
top of the house. I must have a room some
where else, lower down."
Gen. Casa interposing nervously : "Sir,
you are mistaken in the personage ; you are
addresaing General Cass of Michigan."
Stranger, confusedly, "Beg your pardon,
General—thought it was my old friend Gay.
Beg a thousand pardons, sir. All a mistake
—all a — mistake I assure you."
The General passed out of the buil ding, but
soon returned ; but as luck would have it, the
stranger met him full in the face again, but in
another position. This time he was sure he
had met Mr Gay, for the Senator from Mich
igan he knew had just gone out. So the
stranger stepped boldly up, slapped the Gen
eral familiarly on the shoulder, exclaiming :
"By heaven, Gay, I've got a rich joke to
relate. I met old Casa •up stairs just now ;
thought it was you, and began cursing him
about my room."
General Cass, with emphasis, "Well, young
man, you have met old Can again."
Stranger sloped, and he has not been heard
of since.
Tux COCNTET Crtout.—As I looked at such
matters, nothing sweeter, or purer, or more
delicious to a simple soul, can be conceived
than the unaffected singing of a country choir.
There is so little scientific fuss and profession
al palaver about it. And the melodies come
out so full and clear,—a creation each by it
self, rising and falling in its cadences like the
steady swell of the sea! I know few things,,
for myself, more true and hearty. There
stands the choral row, male and female, heads
erect and mouths open wide, letting out soul
and voices together; the fiddle squeaking with
excitement to get , the lead, and the hard work)
ing chorister, with quick eye thrown to one
side or the other, actually singing down the
whole! As for the melody itself,—so simple
and direct, so plaintive, so stirring, filling the
house as with a flood from floor to ceiling,
and drifting out through the open doors and
windows into the echoing streets, it is enough
to move the most worldly heart that ever
tried to mint itself into money. One hardly
thinks he ()etches such seraphic strains again
though he goes all the way from New Eng
land to Rome.
A . PaAcrresi. doss .— During the late war,
while the Army of Tennessee, tinder General
Johnston, lay encamped near Dalton, the fol
lowing rich scene cskurred :—There was a

him, and called out :—"Boys, here he its"—
Instantly the whole regiment was on the

fie is, here he is:" Looking, dumbfounded,
the fat man said: "What's up, gentlemen?-
What hav,e I done?" "You're ;he very man
that stole our big drum and swatlowed it"—
went up simultaneously. Struck with sur
prise, he did not know whether to laugh or
get mad, but finally said: "Well, boys, if
you'll stay till evening 111 eat you."
&mon PEssitvzs.t.Nott—One day, as a
number of-Yankees were amusing themselves
by trying who could throw a stone farthest
across a river, a Scoctchman came up, and
was looking on, when one of the Yankees
asked him to try his strength. "Han; could
throw yoursel' across the river, far less a
stone," was the reply of the Eicotelumut.—
The Yankee wagered him a dollar he wouldn't.
The stakes were handed over, and then the
Scotchman took off his coat and bared his
arms and lifted him up and threw him into
the river. While the Yankee was scrambling
out of the river, amidst the laughter of the by
standers, the Scotchman was busily engaged
in rolling up his sleeves, and when the Yan
kee claimed the wager, he coolly replied, tff.
didna promise to dae't the first time though.'
The Yankee, however, declined to give him a
second trial, and the stakes were handed over
to the Scotchman.
• A Lassos' son LAZY Wivass.—One day a•
sturdy peasant was at work in the field amidst
storm and rain, and went home in the evening,
tired and drenched to the skin. His loving
wife said "My dear, it has been raining so
bard that I could fetch no water, so I have
not been able to make you any dinner. As
you are wet through, I shall be obliged to you
to fetch me a couple of buckets of water—yeu
cannot get any wetter." 'The argument was
striking; he therefore took two buckets and
fetched some water from the well, which was
at a considerable distance. On reach* his
house, he found his wife coMfbriatbly - seated
by the fire ; then lifting one bucket after an
other be poured the contents over his consid

its iniperial and boundless bounty ; and yet
there is enough fire in the sun, to spirt any
quantity of flaming and fantastic jets; it
would fill the whole spice between Mercury
and Neptune with brilliant pyrotechnics and
jubilee displays, such as children gaze at and
clap their hands. But the great old sun is
not selfish, and has no French ambition for
such tawdry glories. It reserves its fires,
keeps 'them stored in its - breast, spills aver
no sheets of flame from its high cauldron, but

CAIq..YLE'S SKSTOH or LITIZER.—A coarse,
rugged, plebeian face it was with great crags
of cheelc bones—a wild amount of
,passionate
energy and appetite ! But in his dark eyes
were floods of sorrow ; and the deepest, me
lancholy and sweetness were all there. Often
did there seem to meet in Luther the very op
posite ;points in man's character. "He, for
example, of whom Richter had said his words
were half-battles, he, when he first began to
preach, suffered nn-heard-of agony. "0, Dr.
Staupitz, Dr. Staupitz, Dr. Staupitz," said he
to the vicar-general of his order, "I cannot do
it, I shall die in three months. Indeed I can
not do it."
Dr. Staupitz, a wise and considerate man,
said upon this, "Well, Sir Martin, if you must
die, you must, but remember that they need
good heads up yonder, too. So preach, and
then live or die, as it happens." So Luther
preacher and lived, and he became, indeed
one great whirlwind of energy to work with
out ratting in this world ; and also before he
died, he wrote very many books—books in
which the Inn man is found, for in the midst
of all they denounced and cursed, what touches
of tenderness lay. Look at the Table Talk,
for example.
eirA farmer in the State of Connecticut has
a pair of twin daughters. They both attend
the same school, and not long since one of
them, who is rather averse to studying, was
called up by the teacher to recite a lesson in
geography, which she had learned very im
perfectly—in fact, she could not go on at aIL
The teacher was getting out of patience, when
he was called to another part of the room for
a moment. No sooner was his back turned,
when the twin sister sprang to the floor Ml

her seat. The teacher returned and proceed

with a degree of promptness and accuracy

Lost TimE.—Let any man pass an even
ing in vacant idleness, or even in reading
some silly tale, and compare the state of his
mind irhen he goes to sleep or gets up next
morning, with its state some °Wedgy, when
he has ,spent a few hours in going through the
proofs; l;iy facts and reasoning, of some of the
great doctrines in natural science, learning
truths wholly new to him, and satisfying him
self, by careful examination, of the grounds
on which known truths rest, so as to be not
only acquainted with the doctrines them--
selves, but able to show why he believes them
and to prove before others that they are true;
will find as great a difference as can exist in the
same being—the difference between looking
back upon time unprofitably wasted, and time
spent in self-improvement; he will feel him
self, in one case listless and dissatisffed—in
the other, comfortable and happy ; in the one
case, if he did not appear to himself humble,
at least will not have earned any claim to his
own respect ; in the other case, he will enjoy
a proud consciousness of having, by his own
exertions, become a wiser, and therefore a
more exalted nature.—Lord Brougham.

horse to the spot, and with great difficulty set
the seeming beggar on its back. But no

was but a sheep farm, the first Marquis was
leasing lots at ninety-nine years. By the time
the heir to the Westminhaer estates attains
his majority, all the leases will lapse, there
by adding an almost incomputable amount of
ground rent to the estate.. The present in
come of the property is said to be £l,OOO a
day ; ten years hence it will be ten or twenty
times this amount. The present Marquis of
Westminster is about seventy-two years of
age. His eldest son, the Earl of Grosvenor is
about forty-seven, and his eldest son, the
young Lord Etelgrave, is about thirteen. By
intermarriage this colossal fortune his not
only been kept in the family, bat multiplied
in arithmetical ratio. The Marquis of West
minster married the Lady Elizabeth Mary
Leveson Gower, second daughter of the first
Duke of Sutherland. Earl Grosvenor married
lady Constance Levesoa Gower, daughter t ot
the first Duke of Sutherland. Rich as these
people are, we do not suppose that either the
Grosvenor sons or daughters will be likely to
"marry for love," unless there is plenty of
wealth to back it.
TRAIN'S HOTEL AT OMALLA.—This Is how
Train came to go into the hotel Waimea at
Omaha :
While a large number of gentlemen were
dining at the Herndon, the gale blew out a
pane of glass. The gush of air Irma fearful to
those who were afraid of the draft. What was
to be done? No.hat was big enough—no pil
low at hand—the gale too tierce to tack up the
curtain, and all the while the guests taking
cold. Train was equal Or- it—he gave a col
ored waiter present ten cents a minute to
stand with his back against the breeze. The
effect was electric, the wind was i stoppol, the
guests were happy, the negro delighted. But
the success was not appreciated by the stew
ard ; he objected ; said the waiter was wanted ;
damned him. And Train, observing that his
genius was not appreciated, got mad, said he
would build a new hotel in sixty days ; bought
the land that night ; dug the cellar next morn
ing, and fifty carpenters were at work the day
following.
Am AND WATER.—Set a pitcher of Water in
a room, and in a few hours it will have ab
sorbed nearly all the respired and perspired
gases in the room, the air of which will have
become purer, but the water utterly filthy.—
The colder the water is, the greater the
capacity of these gasses. At ordinary tem
peratures, a pint of water will contain a pint
of carbonic acid gas, and several pints of am
monia. The capacity is nearly doubled by re
ducing, the water to the temperature of ice.---
Hence, water kept in a room a while is always
unfit for use. For the same resew, the water
from a pump stock should always be pumped
out in the morning before any is used.
pare water is more injurious than impure sir.
This shows the economy as welt as conve
nience of a modern ice pitcher, a splendid in
vention, which, as it seems, is more than or
nament and show; aye, it is really tad abso
lutely a necessity. Let these hints be heeded
by our health-loving and life-preserving read

Womrs's Lovs.—Women generally love
less for youth, beauty, or fortune, than for
fame ; especially the high minded portion of
the sex (and this fovea the purity, of their
affections; for what, after all, can lathe ;oh
ject of true love, but mind—the high and no
ble Mind—which attests. Itself by the loud
voice of fame, and the reluctant- evidences of
envious mankind ? A. noble spirited woman
In the prime of youth and morning of J3essity
—whom she will choose? on whops bestow
her affections? Not on , a jay youth eft
age, priding himself on his smooth
flexible form. She will , turn away
fair brow without a wreath of laurel, : a.
icate Untie that have reaped no,barvs from
the field of honor, and place her heart in the
custody of him whose vigor, and saw of
thought have, gained a place among the great
of the world.
A PArrainn. MBElOP.—George IT., wish

death sent for the Bishop of Winchester
The royal messenger having lokred on his
way, a considerable time elapsed balk, the
Bishop's arrival, and his Majesty, OS learning
the cause of so unusual a delay, rebuked his
- servant sharply, and having peremptorily dis
missed him from his service, turned, to the
Bishop, and said he was now ;ready for the
sacred offices. His Lordship then, with dig
nified adurionia, remarked awhile say hmi

must decline to administer the ordinances;
