The Book-Keeper's Dream. BY JOHN W. EDDY. The day had Wearily worn to its close, And night had come down with its needed re- pose, As a book-keeper wended his way from the store— Glad that his toilsome hours were o'er. The night was cheerless and dismal and damp, And the flickering flame of the dim street lamp Went out in the rough, wild gusts that beat With furious speed through the gloomy street. Tired and cold, with pain-throbbing head, lie sank to repose in his lonely bed ; , Still through his brain, as the book keeper slept, Visions of debtor and creditor crept. The great balance-sheet he had finished that day, And profit and loss, in the usual way, Showed how much money the merchant had made Or lost in the preceding twelve month's trade, And he dreamed that night, that an angel came With the ledger of life—and against his name Were charges, until there was no rOom to spare And nothing whatever was credited there There were life and its blessings—as intellect, health, There were charges of time, opportunities, wealth, Of talents for good, of friendship the best, Of nourishment, joys, of affection and rest. And hundreds of others, and each one as great All with interest accrued from the time of their date, Till, despairing of e'er being able to pay, The book-keeper shrank from the angel away I But the angel declared that the account must be paid, And protested it could not be longer delayed ; The book keeper sighed, and began to deplore How meagre the treasure he'd laid up in store. fled cheerfully render him all he possessed, And give him a note on demand for the rest, Then quickly the angel took paper, and wrote The following as an acceptable note : "On demand, without grace, from the close of to-day, For value received, I promise to pay To Him who has kept me, and eN 7 ery-where Has guarded my soul with an infinite care— "Whose blessings outnumber the drops of the ocean— While living, the sun of my heart's best de- votion. In witness. whereof, to be seen of all men, I affix the great seal of the soul's AMEN 1" The book-keeper added his name to the note, While the angel across the great ledger-page wrote, Tn letters as crimson as human gore— SETTLED IN FULL—and was never seen more * * * * * * * * When the night had rolled back cud its shad- ows were gone, And a roseate morn had blushed into dawn, On the swift wings of faith rose the incense of prayer From the altar God's angel had sanctified there Zhe tor -` ell DEATH OR MARRIAGE. The ancient clock in Deacon Shernier's old-fashioned kitchen was slowly chiming the hour of nine. It was no smart boy, no trifle of bronze or alabaster, but a tall, square solid relic of the last century, look ing not unlike a coffin case set on end in the corner—a clock that lasted through four generations, and, judging from ap pearances, was quite likely to last through several more. Deacon Shermer cherished the old heirloom with a sort of pride which he himself would have scarcely confessed to. There was a great ruddy fire of chest nut logs in the red brick fire-place ; and the candles in the brightly polished brass sticks were winking merrily from the high wooden mantel, where they shared the post of honor with a curious sea shell and a couple of vases, each containing a fresh osage orange from the hedge that skirted the clover field behind the barn. At the window a curtain of gaudy chintz shut out the tens of thousands of stars that were shining brightly on that autumnal night, and on the cosy rug of parti-colored rags a fat tortoise shell cat was not the only in habitant of the farm house kitchen. "Timothy !" said Mary Shermer, de cidedly, "if you don't behave yourself What she would do Mary did not say ; the sentence was terminated by a laugh that set the dimples around her mouth in motion, just as a beam of June sunshine plays across a cluster of red ripe cherries. Mary Shermer was just seventeen—a plump, rosy girl with jet black hair, brush ed back from a low forehead, and perfectly arched eyebrows, that gave a bewitching expression of surprise to a pair of melting hazel eyes. She was rather dark; but the severest critic would not have found 'fault with the peach-like bloom upon her cheeks, and the dewy-red of her full daintily curv ed lips. Evidently Mr. Timothy Marsh all was quite satisfied with Mary's peculiar style of beauty. "Come Mary !" said Tim, moving his chair where be could best watch the flush of the fire-light upon her face, and picking up the thread of the conversation where he had dropped it • when it became neces sary for Mary to bid him "behave himself," "you might promise. It's nine o'clock and your father will soon be home." "Promise what, Tim ?" said Mary de murely, fitting a square of red in her patchwork, and intently observing the ef fect. "Nonsense, Mary ! You know what, very well. Promise to marry me before Christmas ! I tell you what, Mary, it's all very well for you to keep putting a fel low off, but I can't stand it. What with your father's forbidding me the house, and that romantic Tom Stanley's coming here every Sunday night Mary gave her pretty bead a toss. "As if Mr. Stanley's coming here made any difference in my feelings, Tim !" "No ; but Mary, it isn't pleasant, you know. I'm as good a man as Tom Stan ley, if I don't own railroad shares and keep account at the Hamilt.onville bank ; I love you, Mary, from the bottom of my heart ! Now this matter lies between you and me only ; no other person in the world has a right to interfere between us. Come—promise me I" He held both her hands in his and looked earnestly into the liquid hazel eyes. "Do you love me, Mary ?" "You know I love you, Tim." • "Then we may just as well—hush, what's that ?" There was a portentous sound of draw ing bolts, and rattling latches in the porch room beyond—a scraping of heavy boots along the floor. "Oh, Tim, it's father !"? "Suppose it is ?" "But he mustn't find you here. Tim ! Hide yourself somewhere, do !" "W hat nonsense, Nary !" said the young man, resolutely standint , his ground. "I haven't come to steal his spoons. Why should I creep away like a detected burg lar ?" HUNTINGDON, PA., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1874. "For my sake, Tiui. If you ever loved me, do as I say! Not in that closet; it is close to his bed-room, not through that window; it is nailed down tight. lie is coming ! here, Tim, quick !" And in the drawing of a breath, she had pushed Timothy Marshall into the square pendulum case of the tall old clock, and turned the key upon him. It was not a pleasant place of refuge, inasmuch as his shoulders were squeezed on either side, and his head flattened against springs and wheels above, and the air was unpleasant ly close ; but Tim made the best of mat ters, and shook with suppressed laughter in Lis solitary prison cell. "Well ! a jolly scrape to be in," thought Tim, "and no knowing when I'll be out of it. Mary's a shrewd little puss, however, and I can't do better than to leave matters in her hands." "So you haven't gone to bed yet, Mary ?" said Deacon Sheriner, slowly unwinding the two yards of wool-scarf with which he generally encased his throat of an evening. •"\ot yet, father," said Mary, picking up the scattered bits of patch-work with a glowing cheek. "Did you have a pleasant meeting ?" "Well, yes," quoth the Deacon, reflec tively, sitting down befbre the fire greatly to Mary's consternation—she had hoped he would have gone to bed at once, accord ing to his usual custom. "It was tol'bly pleasant. Elder Huskier was there, and Elder Hopkins, and—well, all the church folks, pretty much. Why, bow red your cheeks are, Mary ! Tired, ain't you. Well, you needn't sit up for me, my dear ; it must be getting late." Deacon Shermer glanced mechanically round at the clock. Mary felt the blood grow cold in her cams. "Twenty minutes past nine—why, it must be later than that ! Why, land o' Canaan ! the old clock has stopped !" The old clock had stopped; nor was it wonderful under the circumstances. "I wound it up this mor nin', I'm sartin," said the deacon very much disturbed. "It never served such a trick afore, all the years it stood there.— Your Aunt Jane used to say it was a sign of a death or a marriage in the family be fore the year was out." There was a suppressed sound like a chuckle behind the clock case as Deacon Shermer fumbled on the shelf for the clock key. "These springs must be out of order somehow," said the Deacon, decis ively. "How scared you look, child ! There ain't no cause being scared. I don't pit no faith in your Aunt Jane's old-time superstition. Where, in the name of all possessed, is that key ? I could ha' decla red I left it on the case." "Isn't it on the shelf, father ?" asked Mary, guiltily consc'mus that it was snugly reposing in the pocket of her checkered gingham dress. "No, nor 'taint in my pocket neither." And down went the Deacon, stilly enough on his knees to examine the floor, lest per chance the missing key might have fallen there. "Well, I never knowed anything so strange in all my life," said the Deacon. "It is strange,"' faltered hypocritical Mary. "I'll have a regular search to-morrow," said Deacon Shunter. "It must be some where around." "Yes, it must," said Mary, tremulously. "Only," the Deacon went on slowly, re suming his place before the fire, "I kind o' don't like to have the old clock stand idle a single night. When I wake up, you know, it seems like it was sort o' talk ing to me in the stillness." The Deacon looked thoughtfully at the fiery backlog. Mary fidgeted uneasily about the room, straightening table covers, setting back chairs, and thinking—oh ! if he would only go to bed. As - he sat there, his eyelids began to droop, and his head to nod solemnly, Mary's eyes lighted up with a sparkle of hope. "Child," he said, suddenly straightening himself up in his stiff backed chair, "you'd better go to bed. I'll sit up a while longer till the log burns out." "But father, I'm not sleepy." "Go to bed, my child," reiterated the deacon with a good humored authority that brooked no opposition; and Mary crept out of the room, ready to cry with anxiety and mortification. "If Tim will only keep quiet a little while longer," she thought sitting on the stairs where a newly risen moon streamed in chilly splendor. "Father sleeps so sound ly—and he is sure to go to sleep in his eliair, I could just steal in and release him as quietly as possible." She set there, her plump fingers inter laced, and her eye fixed dreamily on the floor, while all the time her ears were strained to the utmost capacity to catch every sound in the kitchen beyond. Hark ! was that the wail of the wind ? or was it something to her literally "nearer and dearer ?" Yes, she could not be mistaken ; it was actually a snore. Mary rose softly to her feet With renew ed hope. Surely now was the accepted time. Noiselessly as the floating shadow, she crossed the hall, opened the kitchen door, and stole across the creaking floor. The candle was burned out, but the shift ing lustre of the firelight revealed her father nodding. ' over the fire, with closed eyes and hands hanging by his sides. With a heart that beat quick and east, like the strokes of a miniature hammer, she drew the key from her dress pocket, and proceeding, in spite of the nervous trembling of her fingers, to get it in the lock. So absorbed was she in the task that she never noticed the sudden cessa tion of the heavy breathing—never saw the deacon start suddenly into wakefulness and look around him. Love is blind, and equally true, it is deaf. The deacon rose quietly up, with a shrewd twinkle in his eyes, and Mary gave a little frightened shriek as a hand fell softly on her arm, possessing itself quietly of the key. "Let me help you," said Deacon Sher mer. "Father, I—l round the key," faltered Mary. "Pound the key, eh ?" returned the deacon, "well, that% lucky ; and now we can find out what's the matter with the clock." Mary's heart throbbing so wildly a mo ment or two ago. seemed to stand abso lutely still, as Deacon Shermer started the key and opened the tall door of the clock case. "Hal—lo !" ejaculated Deacon Shermer, as Mr. Timothy Marshall tumbled laugh ingly into the room. "So you was the mat ter with the old clock, eh ?" "Yes, sir," said Tim, composedly. "I hope I haven't interfered with the works of the clock." "You've seriously interfered with me," said the deacon, waxing indignant. "What do you mean, sir, by hiding in my house like a thief?" '"lndeed ! indeed father," cried Mary, bursting into tears, "It wasn't his fault. lie didn't want to hide, but I put him there." "You did, eh ? and may I ask what for ?" "Father," faltered Mary, rather irrev ereutly, "I love him and he loves me 1" • "Is that any reason why be should hide in tho clock case, Miss ?" "No—but—father ! I can never, never marry Mr. Stanley. He is so soft, and I—" Mary's tears finished the sentence for her. The deacon looked down, not ur k-indly, on her bowed bead, and the tender arm that supported it. Apparently the course of true love" roughly though it ran, was overwhelming all his own worldly-wise arrangements in its tide. "And you two young folks really think you love each other," said the deacon, med itatively. "I love her with all my heart and soul," said Tim Marshall, earnestly. "I am not rich, I know, but I can work for her." "And I can work for myself, too, fath er„ interposed Mary, with tears that shone like softened stars. "And you said yourself, sir," went on Tim, "that the stopping of the clock meant either a 'marriage or a death.' Of course, we don't want any de..ths. so don't you think the most sensible thing we can do is to help on a marriage as soon as possi ble ?" The deacon laughed in spite of himself. "It's late," he said, "come around to•nior row morning, and we'll talk about it. No, Mary, I'm nut angry with you child. I s'pose young folks will be young folks, and there's no use tryin' to stop them !" The deacon re hung the pendulum, and set the iron tongue of the old clock talk ing again . Tim Marshall paused on the front doorstep to whisper to Mary : "What should it he, Mary, a death or a marriage?" And she in return whispered, "a mar riage, I lope." "My darling !" said Tim, "it's worth passing a lifetime behind the clock case to feel as I do now !" g4eatling for Or pillion. The Juniata Valley Camp Meeting. [From the DAILY JounNAL of Wednesday last.] The first religious exercises of the Ju niata Valley Cutup Meeting were held yes terday evening. The ringing of the bell at 7i o'clock brought a goodly crowd of worshippers together in the old circle, the number being much larger than at the opening on previous years. The old battle hymn of Methodism : 'There is a Fountain filled with blood, etc.," was sung as a voluntary, and the woods re verberated with the genuine sound of praise that came swelling. up from the throats of the singers. This was followed Py the first hymn : "0, for a thousand tongues to sing Great Redeemer's praise," led by Bro. F. M. Bell, o• Tyrone, to the good old air of "Coronation." Rev. M. K. FoSter, P. E. of' tho Juniata District., then led in prayer. His petition was uttered in au eloquent and devout manner, and he earnestly implored the Divine Majesty to preside over the meeting and bless His people. After the prayer, the hymn "Jesus, lover of my soul," was sung as a voluntary, at the conclusion of which the Presiding Elder mode and announced that there would be no preach ing this evening, but simply some general remarks, and advice would be given. He expressed himself highly gratified that, so many were present at the first meeting, and he advised them to "tarry at Jeru salem until endowed with power from on high," and that the desired power must emanate from the Divine source, and that only. lle intimated that there were sonic who were prepared to carry on the work of the enemy,but lie felt assured that the peo ple of God came up to this place equipped with the whole panoply and armor of God. "I want," said lie, "this meeting to be a grand success." Amen l resounded from every part of the congregation. He thanked God that one of His people had the power to chase a thous and, and two to put ten thousand to flight; and expressed the desire that this might be the greatest camp meeting ever held, and with the prophet, warned the people not to be at ease in Zion. He urg ed the necessity of all being in earnest in the great work before them, viz : The con version of sinners and the promotion of the cause of God, and to be in the spirit, charitable, not fault-finding, but make the best of those precious moments, admonish ing God's people that they had friends out of Christ who had claims upon them for their prayers for their soul's salvation. He then referred to to the rules, and re quested each one to read them carefully, in order that there might be complete de corum and order in the camp. Prayer meeting was announced for 8 o'clock this morning, to be led by Rev. M. L. Smith, and preaching by the Rev. H. C. Pardue. of Hollidaysburg, at 101 o'clock. The services were closed by singing "0 for a faith that will not shrink" and a most eloquent prayer by Rev. A. W, Decker, after wlch the Doxology, "Praise God from whom all blessings flow," was sung, and the benediction pronounced by Rev. Foster. So as the majority of our readers are concerned, a description of the JUNIATA VALLEY CAMP is unnecessary. Most of them are acquainted with the locality, and not a few have spent previous seasons of soul-profit and spiritual pleasure upon its hallowed grounds. But there arc, no doubt, some who have never had this privilege, and hence we deem a brief re ferenee to the Camp and its surroundings altogether proper at this time. The Camp occupies a beautiful grove. near the lint of the Pennsylvania railroad, opposite Newton Hamilton Station, in Mifflin county. The tents are built of boards, two-stories high, and covered with shingles. They number three hundred and seventy-five, and are arranged in three squares, or circles, as they are commonly called, and are all occupied The two extreme squares have each stands and seats for congregational services. The centre one is supplied with a large build ing called "The Tabernacle," capable of seating from eight hundred to one thous and persons. This is intended for special services and preaching during rains or storms. The Boarding House is situated on the south side of the Camp, and is very complete in all its parts. Five hundred persons can be seated at one time at com fortable tables, numbered in regular order. The Commissary Department is attached to this building,-nnd is for the supplying of all the necessaries for the tent holders. The Restaurant is located on the north side of the Camp, and is capable of feed ing two hundred persons at one time.— The sleeping apartments are over the up per floor of the building. The Ace of the Association, the Book More, Baggage Room, office of the DAILY JOURNAL, livr her Shop, and other appurtenances for the comfort and convenience of the Association and tent-holders, arc also on this side of the camp. The walks are comfort able, and the promenades very delightful. Railroad facilities are goo-l. The water it excellent, and the supply bountiful. A complete history of the camp will be pub lished as soon as the data c.in be found. Bigotry—An Obituary. We have heard of the death of a veter an of world-wide fame. His beard and hair were very white, and, we are sorry to say, white with sin; we wean BIIiOTRY. Its took a bad cobd standing the door of the Evangelical Alliance Lott October.— Since then he bas been lingering on, sonic times better and sometimes worse'. until now he is dead. You may think you see him again, but it will be wily the ghost of his former self. The fact is that he has been for a long while failing in health.— He has had some very bad falls on the platform of the American Tract Society. and American Sunday. School Union, and American Board of Foreign Missions. In those places old Dr. Cofl, George B. S tuart, . William E. Dodge, and others, have rather delighted to trip him up. Besides this he has been very much reduced in strength by a spare diet. Refusing to take the strong meat of the word and the bread of life, he has confined himself to ereeds and liturgies and catechisms. He got weaker and weaker until now he is dead. A post-mortem examination revealed the' fact that his spleen was very much en- larged, and his liver was surcharged with', bile, and the two alarmir.g protuberances on his head turned out to be a couple of horns in state of embryo. No public an nouncement was made either of his decease or his burial. The overseer of the poor took charge of his remains, he did not leave enough to pay his funeral expenses. Bishop Cummins, J. Hyatt Smith. Father Hyacinth, and old Dr. Tyng served as pall bearers. not because they had any *fleeting, for the departed, Lut because they thought it better to get him out of the way. The funeral sermon was preached from a text in the Old Testament : "Buried with the burial of an ass ; drawn forth and cast be yond the streets of -Jerusalem. - Reps.'s cut in pace !—(.aviation at Work. A Colored Bishop at Camp Meeting. A writer in the Erortge/ist gives an account of the sermon of Bishop Camp bell, of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. We quote : The second evening of the meeting Campbell (colored), of Philadelphia. gave an extempore address that swayed the whole audience as by a mighty whirlwind of eloquence. The Bishop is heavy and short in build, and perfectly black, with the whitest of eye-balls ann teeth. He seemed to forget all but his theme, and that sinners were before him. His text was, "I bring him forth to you that ye may know that I find no fault in him."— The emphatic words "ao fault in hiar" came thundering out after every pause in his powerful arguments Bishops an 1 and clergy shook with alternate laughter and tears as they listened, ejaculatia:z "Glory, glory, hallelujah !" The picture of the divine and blessed Redeemer of o•ar lost world, as he painted it, came oat grander and grander at every touch of that black hand, and ho fairly sprang from his feet when the thoughtseemed too mud) for human utterance. The scene and im pression was just wonderful. The same Bishop gave his experience at loveleast, and little groups gathered about hint after the services to hear his convers►tion. Ile was the man of the hour. An Outside View of Camp Meeting. A Presbyterian correspondent of the Evangelist, writing from Round Lake Camp Meeting, says : Presbyterians will have to resume their old practices ; and the other evangelical denominations—Con , :regationalists. Bap tists, etc.—join in ; or the people, with such attractions as these, at the priers al forded to Churches, will turn Methodist in the summer time. The advantages and attractions of fashionable watering place* are a long way behind. The whole aim of the multitude, rich and poor, young and old, bishops and lay men, is "Nearer, my God, to Thee." The very names of the encampments are sa cred. They are like the stones that Jacob set up in the place where God blevied him. Thousands point to Round Lake. Ocean Grove, Sea Cliff, Martha's Vineyard. and say, "There God met me face to face." In Madagascar there are said to be halt' a million of professing Cbristienl, 20,000 children arc at school, some 700 churches, and the Bible has been translated, and many books written, in Malagasy, and more than 150,000 books in that vernacular sold every year. Besides building their ewe churches and supporting their ministers, the native Christians maintain 120 evan gelists in the outlying districts. The Gov ernment has absorbed Christianity into its system, after b to stamp it out by bitter persecution. And this ig the result of less than fifty years.
