When the heart has ceased its boating,
And the hands clasped o'er the breast,
Shall we know no more of weeping ?
Shall we have eternal rest
When our friends are for us praying,
And are shedding each a tear,
Shall we hoar what they aro saying?
Shall wo know that they are near?
When our souls to Heaven ascending,
All the loved ones wo shall greet,
Shall we see the mourners bending?
Shall we wonder why they weep?
When the vesper bell is ringing,
And the organ load doth swell,
Shall wo join the voices singing?
Shall we? Shall we? Who can tell?
The Various Implements of Masonry.
As emblematical of our conduct in
life, they afford us very many useful
lessons which wo will do well to heed.
The Holy Bible is ono of the great
lights of the craft, one that wo cannot
fail to follow if wo would be true to
our principles, and measure up to the
standard required of us, it will guidons
in tho way of truth that adorns and
strengthens the character ofman. It will
lead us into the temple of true and abi
ding happiness, and secure for us an en
trance into the Grand Lodge Room on
high. "It enriches the memory, it el
evates the reason, it enlivens the imag
ination, it directs the judgment; it
controls the passions, it quickens the
conscience, it strengthens the will, it
kindles the sacred flame of faith, hope
and charity; it purifies, onnobles,sane
tifies the whole man, and brings him
into living union with God. It has
light for the blind, strength for the
weak, food for the hungry, drink for
the thirsty; it has a counsel in precept
for every sorrow, a balm for every
wound. Of all tho books in the world
the Bible is the only ono of which wo
never tire, but which we. admire and
love more and more in proportion as
wo use it. bike the diamond, it, casts
its lustre in every direction ; like a
torch,, the more it is shaken the more
it shines; like a healing herb, the hard
er it is pressed the sweeter is its fra
grance." The Holy Bible lies open
before every member of the Order, and
points out the whole duty of man.
Walk in the great light that you may
reflect honor upon that Order, whose
foundation principles aro the truths
thcre:n revealed.
Then by other emblems we are
taught to regulate our actions, our
every-movement by tho' principles of
morality and virtue; and in Mir different
stations among mon•and before God,
to walk uprightly, circumscribing our
desires within proper limits. Wo
are also directed to move right onward
in the way of truth, turning neither to
the right nor the left, and to avoid in
our conversation and actions dissimu
lation. The earnest student as he ad
vances in Masonry, may also learn lesl
sons appropriate to the throo principa
stages in human life, viz, youth, man
hood and ago; and if true to these les
sons, he may as a Master Mason "on
joy tho happy reflection consequent on
a well spent life, and die in the hope of
a glorious immortality." Lot all the
instruments and emblems of Masonry
be carefully used and closely studied,
and we shall ever and always deserve
the title of "good men and true." Wo
will come, more fully to understand our
duty to God, and to each other; there
will indeed be enkindled in our hearts
a flamo of devotion to God, of brothor
ly love to each other, and charity to
all mankind.

Ho chanced to meet the lady from
whom the invitation came at another
evening party. Ile wont to her at
once and apologized for his absence :
"Aly wife was sick," said ho, "and I
had to stay at home and be the
'Ammo,'" moaning to say nurse. To
his surprise the whole company broke
out in peals of laughter. His surprise
kindled to indignation. "What aro
you all laughing at ?" cried ho, "it is
all right, I toll you, I know it is, I
looked in the dictionary on purpose
beforo I came; I was the 'Ammo,
Ammo, Ammo—Ammo;'" ho repeat
ed it carefully as lie began to think ho
must have pronounced it incorrectly,
"I was the 'Ammo,' I tell you." Tho
merriment on the Gorman side and
the anger on the English grow apaco;
nor was it for some time longer possi
ble to explain to him that "Ammo"
indeed means Durso, but a particular
kind of nurse—wet Durso.

almost two inches long—thoStitzus
grandis, of Say, if I recollect right—
whose pecular habit it is to provision
its nests with the body of ono of these
seventeen year locusts.
It first, like most digger wasps, digs
a hole in the ground, by way of nest,
then catches a locust, stings it just
enough to stupefy it, but not enough
to kill it, and drags it into the hole
which has alrody been prepared to re
ceive it. Having thus furnished a suf
ficiency of food for its future offspring,
prepared in such an ingenious manner
that it will keep fresh for a long time
without a particle of salt or saltpetre,
it deposits a single egg in the nest,
closes up its mouth with earth,
and
then flies off to repeat the above labor
ious process over and over again, till
its stock of eggs is exhausted. Before
many days the egg hatches out into
a little soft, white, legless larva, which
gradually devours thobody - of the liv
ing locust. At length, having become
full-fed, it spins a membranous cocoon,
inside which it passes the winter, and
in the following spring develops into
a perfect digger wasp, to repeat the
same wonderful oycle of operations
year after year, and century after
century.
To some, perhaps, all this may
sound like a traveler's tale. But lot
any incredulous person examine at
this time of the year tho common mud
dabs that may bo found in any out
building, and ho will find but another
edition of the process recapitulated
above; the only difference being that
the mother wasp that constructs these
mud dabs makes its nest above ground
instead of underground; and provis
ions it with some ten or a dozen spi
ders in place of a single locust.
The species of sinus referred to
above is rather an uncommon insect,
bat as I happen to know, it occurs
from Pennsylvania to the region west
of the Mississippi. What is moro like
ly, then, than that ono of these wasps,
with a squalling locust in his grasp,
should two or three times every year
light upon a human being—and, that,
upon being brushed off, or otherwise
harshly treated, it should retaliate af
ter th o fashion of all female wasps,
by stinging the offender ? Of course
the effects of the sting of so gigantic
a species of wasp would in all proba•.
bility be very severe; for instance, a
lump on the neck as big as a man's
fist produced in two minutes. And of
course if the locust happened to be
squalling loudly at the time of the
sting, the wound inflicted would be
pretty sure to be laid at its door.
• lf, on the other hand, we persist in
believing that it is the female locust
herself that stings in such cases as
these, why do we not hoar of thousands
of persons being stung by locusts every
year? There aro millions upon mil
lionsof locusts in the woods this sum
mer, butting madly up against men,
women and children every hour of the
day. Surely, if the females wore phys
ically capable of stinging, Instead of
half a dozen such cases, we should
hear of thousands upon thorn, through
out the interior districts. Locusts
must be to the full as numerous as bees.
If ono insect can sting as well as the
other, why aro not locust stings as
common as bee stings ?

THE MYSTERIES OF "PLANCIIETTE."—
"Planohotto," which is performing its
gyrations in half the parlors of East
ern cities, has the fortunate advanta
ges of being portablo, neat, low priced,
and easily worked. The elements
unite to make it amenable to all inter
ested in its operations • theso aro, curt—
osity, which universally abounds, and
patience, which is far less common.—
"Planchotte" consists of a hoartshaped
bit of wood, a quarter of an inch thick,
smooth, polished, supported on a
couple of delicate wheels, made of
ivory, and requiring a recorder near
the point to - ensuro that the instru
ment will not only stand upon a sheet
of paper placed upon a table, with a
smooth marble or wooden surface.—
Tho recorder is a black load pencil
brought to a fine point, which writes
upon the paper—writes actual an
swers to various question. The game
[but that is scarcely the proper na'mo
tbr it], is played by several persons
placing their fingers lightly upon tho
table land, so to call it, of the heart
shaped little machine as it stands up
on the table. After a pause of more
or loss delay, "Planchette" begins to
move* under the united touch of the
fingers lightly resting upon it. Thou
tho motion increases—the pencil malt

muscular motion of any person assist
ing is permitted. It would soon as if
Planchetto wore operating indopen

to B and forthwith Planehetto writes
it down. Some people cannot work

quantity of animal magnetism.

Veto of the Arkansas Bill.
The following is the text of Presi•
dent Johnson's•mossa;o, vetoing the
Arkansas bill:
To the House of Representatives I
return, without my signature, a bill en
titled an act to admit tho State of Ar
kansas to representation in (.7ongross.
The approval of this bill would be an
admission on the part of the Eximutive
that the "Act for the more 'efficient
government of tho Rebel States," pass
ed March 2, 18G7, and the acts supple.
montary thereto, were proper and con
stitutional. My opinion, however, in
reference to these measures has under
gone no change, but, on tho contrary,
has been strengthened by the results
which have attended their execution.
Even wore this no.t tho case, I could
not consent to a bill which is based
upon the assumption either that by an
act of rebellion of a portion of its peo
ple the State of Arkansas seceded from
the Union, or that Congress may, at
its pleasure, expel or exclude a State
from the Union, or interrupt the Gov
ernmont by arbitrarily deprive it of rep
resentation in the Senate and House
of representatives..
If Arkansas is a State not in the
Union, this bill does not admit her as
a State into the Union. If, on the
other hand, Arkansas is a State in the
Union, no legislation is necessary to
declare her entitled to representation
in Congrdss as one of the States of tho
Union. The Constitution already de
clares that "each State shall have at
least one representative ;° that the
Senate "shall be composed of two Sen
ators from each State," and "that no
State without its consent shall be de
prived of its equal suffrage in the Sen
ate." That enactment also makes
each House the judge of the elections,
returns, and qualifications of its own
members; and, therefore, all that is
now necessary to restore Arkansas in
all its constitutional relations to the
Government is a decision by each
House upon the eligibility of those
who, presenting their credentials, claim
seats in the respective Houses of Con
gress. This is the plain and simple
plan of the Constitution; and believing
that had it been pursued when Con
gress ro•assembled in the month of
December 1865, the restoration of tho
States would long since have boon com
pleted of once again earnestly recom
mended that it be adopted by each
House in preference to legislation
which I respectfully submit, is not
only of at least doubtful constitution
ality, and therefore unwise and dan
gerous as a precedent, but is unneces
sary, not so effective in its operations
as the mode proscribed by the Consti
tution, involves additional delay, and
from its terms may be taken rather as
applicable to a territory about to bo
admitted as ono of the United States,
then to a State which has occupied a
I place in the Union for upwards of a
quarter of a century. The bill declares
tho State of Arkansas entitled, and
admitted to representation in Con
gress as ono of the States of the Union
upon the following fundamental condi
tions :—That the Constitution of Ar
kansas shall never bo so amended or
changed as to deprive any citizen or
class of citizens of the United States
of the right to vote by the Constitution
herein recognized, except• as a punish
ment for such crimes as aro now felo
nies at common law, whereof he shall
have been duly' convicted under -laws
equally applicable to all the inhabi
tants of said State, provided that any
alteration of said Constitution, pro
spective in its effect, may be made in
regard to the time and place of resi•
denco of voters.
I have been unable to find in the
Constitution of the United States any
warrant for the exercise of the author
ity thus claimed by Congress, for as-.
suming the power to impose a funda—
mental condition upon a State which
has beet; duly admitted into the Union
on equal footing with the original
States in-all respects whatever. Con
gress assorts a right to outer a State
as it. may a territory, and to regulate
the highest prerogative of' a free peo
ple, the elective filtnchiso. This ques
tion is reserved by the Constitution to'
the States themselves, and to concede
to Congress the power to regulate this
subject would be to reverse the funda
mental principles of the republic, and
to place in the hands of the Federal
Government, which is the creature of
the States, tho sovereignty which just
ly belongs to the State, or the people,
its truo source of all political power,
by whom the federal system was crea
ted, and to whose will it is subordinate.
Tho bill fails to provide in what man
ner tho,State of Arkansas is to signify
its acceptance of the fundamental con
dition which Congress endeavored to
make unalterable and irrevocable, nor
does it prescribe the penalty to bo im
posed should the people of the State
amend or change the particular por
tions of the Constitution which it is one
of the purposes of this bill to perpe
trate; but as the consequences of its
action, loaves them in uncertainty an 4
doubt. When the circumstances na 7

It is well known that a very larga
portion of the electors in all the States,
if not a largo majority of all of them:'
do not believe in or accept the political,
equality of Indians, Mongolians or no-.
groes, with the race to which they be

to believe that a majarity of them
would remain from tho polls rather•
than comply with its degrading pondi

this test oath prevented the registra

the laws of Congress, it is not impos

effect, at least sufficient to overcome
the small and doubtful majority in-fa,

Give Your Child a Newspaper.
A child beginning to rend, bcaomes

ho roads the names of things whiph

consider that substantial :information
in connection with advancement. The

heads, and having a more immediate
charge of children should herself be is

In a well conducted newspaper, the
family will not.only have an opportu:
nity of improvement in different bran :
