"What is it all,when all it Done." "The sun goes up, and the sun goes down, And a thousand years are the same as ono ; Tho loaves grow green and the leaves grow brown, And what is it all, when all is done ?" Aye, what is it all, if this life bo all, But a draught to the dregs of a cup of gall, A bitter round of the rayless years, A saddening dole of wormwood tears, A sorrowful plaint of the spirit's thrall, The grave, the shroud, the funeral pall— This is its sum—if this life be all. But is not all—beyond this shore The sun goes up to go down no more, The leaves that grow green, are green for aye, And the flowers that bloom, know not decay. A thousand years are indeed as one, But of bitterness, then, the soul bath none, And this is it all, when all is done. Bite Atm-Ulm NIGHT AND MORNING. It was a wild, windy night, and the light snow filled the air with fine, cutting particles—a night when a good fire and the society of friends become vitally essen tial to a man's comfort and happiness. Margaret Edgarton arose from her seat by the scanty fire, and opening the door, looked out upon the night. She stood a moment, then, with a shudder, closed the door, and returned to her husband's side. "Heaven pity those who are exposed to the storm this night," she said, fervently. "Amen !" responded her husband. in a deep, solemn voice. "Though we an very, very poor, Margaret, there are many even poorer than ourselves." The man raised his dark, serious eyes devoutly upward, and the fair, I youthful head of his pale wife leaned down to his shoulders. "Yes, William, I tremble to think of the future. The rent due, our stay here is only an act of mercy on the landlord's part—oh, Willie !" The feeble voice broke down in tears. " 'Take no thought for the marrow what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink,' Mar garet. If it hadn't been for misfortune," and he glanced at the mutilated and band aged arm which bung powerless at his side, "we might have been enjoying the fruits and comforts of my labor; but it is all for the best, I suppose." There was a short silence in the room, which was interrupted by a rap at the door. "Who can be out on such a night ?" and Mrs. Edgarton started up hastily to admit the visitor. He was an old weather-beaten man of some three-score years, shabbily dressed, and carrying in his hand a lean, meagre bundle. In reply to her hind invitation, he fol lowed Mrs. Edgarton into the house, and took a seat by the smouldering fire. Af ter a few commonplace remarks,the stranger said : `•lt's a rough night, friends, and the traveling is none of the best—can you ]et me stay all night here? A man has just told me that it is a good four miles to the village." Mr. Edgarton looked at his wife, and in her sympathizing face read her con sent. "Yes, my good man," he replied im mediately, "you can stay if you will : but I am afrail you will find our accommoda tions none of the best. We are very poor and destitute, but such as we have we offer you freely." "Could you give me something to eat ? I have traveled far to-day, and have not tasted food since yesterday night ! Food cannot be got now-a-days without money. The eyes of Mrs. Edgarton filled with tears as she thought of the quarter loaf of bread—their earthly all—which she had reserved for breakfast. "Heaven will take care of us," she said thoughtfully, and, rising, she placed the scanty store upon the table. The stranger ate the bread without comment, and when he had finished he seemed wonderfully invigorated, and con versed quite intelligently Rith Mr. Edgar ton. "You have a bad arm there, sir; may I ask how it happened." "Certainly; an unlucky fall from a high building has crippled me for life." "You were at work on the building ? A mechanic, eh ?" "A biicklayer. The staging on a new warehouse where I was at work gave way, and I was precipitated some twenty feet." "The warehouse of Mr. Morgan ?" "the same, sir. It was a sad accident for me, but I have tried hard to be recon ciled." "Well, this is a hard life for us all ! But if I'm to stay with you to-night, I may as well retire. It's getting toward eleven." EASTWA RD. The poor but clean bed appropriated to the stranger guest was made more eom fortable by additional clothing taken from the couch of the poor couple; and the man, in apparent thankfulness, bid them good night and retired. They, too, leaning ou the everlasting arm, took no thought of the morrow, though it was to see them houseless and. without food. Verily, the faith which can thus sustain the soul in the most try ing moments is no delusion. Morning came, and, to the great sur prise of Mr. and Mrs. Edgarton, their guest was missing. Gone, and when or how they could not imagine, but gone Le certainly was. They wondered over the circumstance, but in the trouble and anxiety of their ut ter destitution, the strange man was soon dismissed from their thoughts to make room for their own immediate affairs. ttr Pe" , •e X;y tan , co co Ten o'clock was the time given them by the landlord for removal, and with heavy hearts they prepared to go forth. Through the kindness of a neighbor, they had been allowed the use of the building for the storage of their little furniture,and a room in his house until Mr. Edgarton's health should be sufficiently reestablished to admit of his performing some light la bor. 1875, Passenger NORTHWARD ZIP. I MAIL. A. 11 Nine o'clock pealed from the bell in the neighboring church tower—but one short hour of home life remained for them. Fifteen minutes later there came a quick imperative knock at the door of Mr. Ed garton's house. Mrs. Edgarton sprang to open it, and a well-dressed man put a large package into her hand and turned hastily away. The package was addressed, in a bold masculine hand: NORT] (WARD No. 2. EXP. P. M. 8 00 6 45 5 40 5 30 SUPT. "Mr. William Edgarton." William tore it open, and there dropped out two papers, one bearing an official, the other a private seal. He elamined the former and found it to be a deed, convey ing to him and his heirs a certain piece of land with a large and handsome house thereon, and all its appurtenances. Transfixed with surprise, he broke the seal of the letter, and a hundred pound note met his eyes, accompanied by these briet' words : "Last night you freely gave your all to a poor and destitute wayfarer, who now begs you to accept the accompanying deed and money, in reward for your noble kind ness. A conveyance will come immediately to take you to your new residence. When you are fairly established there, your friend, the writer of this, will do himself the justice of aalling upon you kespectfully yours, HOWARD MORGAN William Edgarton looked at his wife as he finished reading and both burst into tears. Well did they know the name of Howard Morgan ; it was one of the wealth iest men in the city ; the upright and high-minded but singularly eccentric old bachelor. It was in his employ that Wil liam Edgarton had received the serious injury which had disabled his left arm for life, yet, strange to say, he had never seen the rich man, his business being trans acted principally by an agent. He had now no doubt that his visitor of the pre vious night was none other than Mr. MA , gan. True to the promise contained in the letter, a conveyance cane for the Edgar tons, and without hesitation they entered and were driven to their handsome and pleasantly situated house. They found it prepared for immediate occupancy—even to the burning of the plentiful fires and the smoking breakfast upon the table. They had scarcely had time to admire the rich taste which had furnished the spa cious rooms when a ring at the door an nounced a visitor. It was the old way farer of the night before. He received all the grateful thanks the bewildered Edgartons tried to make hint, and, taking a seat upon the sofa, he drew them down on each side of him. Ee was well dressed now, and Mri. Ed garton wondered that she bad not noticed the extreme kindliness of his countenance on the preceding evening. a • My good friends," he said, taking a hand of each, "I'll begin to explain a little mystery. I had heard of the misfortune of one of my workmen, through my agent, and that his family where in destitute cir cumstances. Before I could trust myself to do anything for you I wished to ascer tain the state of affairs, and last night's experience satisfied me. When I find charity and true goodness anywhere, I am determined that they shall be rewarded even in this world. And now, Mr. Ed garton, I am in want of a deputy manager, and I propose the situation to you, when you shall be able to endure the fatigue.— The salary is two hundred pounds a year, and perhaps your pretty wife can manage affairs comfortably on that, eh, Mrs. Ed garton ?" and the old man cast a good natured look into her tear-wet face. That was a happy day for Mr. and Mrs. Edgarton. It was also a happy day for the charitable Mr. Morgan, and no doubt the angel who records the good deeds of man wrote many a shining line against his name that day. William Edgarton assumed the post offered him in his pat ron's establishment, and faithfully were his duties discharged, and more than sat isfied was his employer. Mrs. Edgarton grew to be the merriest, blithest little woman to be found anywhere. Mr. Morgan spends many a delightful evening at their house, holding their bright-eyed little Howard on his knee, and telling him pleasant stories of the great and good. Blessed be charity. gnaing for tht Review of Fashions. Fashion has nothing further to suggest for the year 1875, and, at the expiration of the period, distinguishes herself by re -living antique styles, and perplexing her followers with the wealth of suggestions placed before them. While their surprise is unabated, she is already contemplating spring novelties, and preparing fresh won ders, which will come upon the woman public just as it has learned to make use of the oportunities at hand. Forttnately, it is not a difficult thing to take a survey of the existing situation, and find, at least, where Fashion stands at present. In reviewing the forms of dress fur the current season, shapes appear to have un dergone very little change. While walk ing skirts are said to clear the ground, however, very few really do so, ladies seem ing to prefer the trouble to lifting them, when necessary, to wearing them io what is considered an ungraceful length. All skirts of dresses are longer in front than they were a year since, the only reason for this being a better conformity with the general extended drapery. Trains accom panying evening toilettes are not long back-breadths, continued in a gored form, exclusively, but are square-cut widths, provided separately, and adjusted in large pleats massed back of the arm. The lat ter style is necessarily confined to toilettes of heavy materials, the trains, of gauze, tulle, and tarlatan toilettes being supplied by extended, gored breadths. When all the fullness of the skirt is disposed at the centre back in thick pleats, the fan-like drapery of the train is a natural result. Over-skirts have passed through many vagaries, recently, and are consequently exhibited in great variety of form. A fancy, newly revived, is for different loop. ings upon one design, as thus: A triple apron model is well draped upon the left front and side, while the right is left to hang smoothly down, and is closed, or ap parently closed, to the foot, with a row of buttons and button-holes. At the back, the well-shirred frills alone serve to con tract the drapery, the centre-loving being altogether omitted. Another new fancy consists in replacing the narrow side gores of over-skirts with lacing supplied by heavy silk cords. Stylish models, which are left open in the front, and connected by straps, pleatings, etc., are especially in favor of evening toilettes, and are seen in light blue, and maize color, accompanied by French waists, made of alternating strips of velvet and silk. This graceful over-dress is worn over a:skirt of black velvet, and proves exceeoiingly effective with the dark velvet showing through the open spaces of the divided over-skirt. A stylish design for an evening-dress exhibits two sashes crossing in front, and unitin g in a large bow at the back. A second French model accompanying a toilette of crepe lisle was made of satin en tirely without trimming, and consisted of an open-apron front raised at the back in two large loops directly below the waist. These open-aprons, not now by any means as to shapes, prove acceptable at present for evening toilettes, as they may be elab orated down the front with spiral trim mings of lace and a special garniture of flowers. One such design of white silk was trimmed with spirals of crepe lisse and ivy lave.,. with pansies. I:ause:. tulles, etc., supply over-skirts in the form of tunics, or rather wide scarf draperies. which are embroidered with straw, crystal beads, silver spangles. and gold and silver Marguerites. Stylish over skirts for heavy fabrics, worn chiefly as street toilettes, exhibit deep apron-fronts. with widely varying backs One such design is shirred for a space of twelve inches above the hem in front, with four threads, an inch space in tervening between. The back shows cross wise puffs completed by showy loops of doubled silk. Side-pleatings of silk near ly four inches deep, with a braid-trimming abov', supplies the garniture . An exceedingly graceful -shawl - over. skirt is deep, pointed in front, and looped once, merely at the back, leaving its doub le points in the perfect representation of a shawl. This design is completed with cordings of velet, fringe, and waves of fine. crimped pleating extending down the front. Since Fashion has decided over-skirts to be of unusual depth, at the front especial ly, a decided increase of garniture is no ticed ; indeed, this portion of the toilette supplies the point for the chief elabora tion of the entire costume, and tor this reason, double pointed, open. and "shawl models are especial favorites, as they mai tiply borders, and opportunities for mass ing garnitures upon this portion of a dress Polonaises, which are recalled with much enthusiasm, are models of handsome pro portions, and, as they are desired for rich materials or for heavy wool suiting's, little is required beyond perfection of shape. Two varieties prevail as to form ; one is a graceful garment with a shirred apron effect, the centre of the design being sup plied by a graduated band of silk, left plain, the slightly gathered fronts being appended to this band. The back is sim ilarly modeled, but much more contracted, in order to produce a sufficiently shortened drapery. Other polonaises are entirely plain, exhibiting the same Marguerite back some seasons since. The slightest possible drapery effects, or looping., are seen upon polonaise of handsome fabrics. and an elegant model, in stripped silk anal velvet, is trimmed with a band of reeks' feathers, with a frill of black lace under neath. Black wings, very small, crossed, and held by silver buckles, close the front Pelisses, redingotes, Marguerite polonaises, and polonaises simple, are the various names for new polonaises, which may be repeated in designs issued some time since, and varied only by garnitures, pockets, collarettes, revers. etc. To attempt to classify barques a diffi cult matter, as the one item of garniture covers the difference, chiefly between va rious models. The cuirasse, as to form and proportion; supplies the one starting point. Designers e.an suggest nothing further in relation to correctness of shape, and it only remains with those who crave novelty to provide fresh models of trim ming, and christen the ordinary basque by new titles. The Chatelaine basque is simply an extended, long-skirt, cuirasse basque, with the addition of a Chatelaine pocket, suspended from the side, and the Pompadour basque takes name from the square shaped neck which supplies one feature of its shape. Cutting the skirts of high necked basques, and both the necks and skirts of low-necked basques, in van• dykes and squares, gives variety to the plain cuirasse model, and this style is pop ular. Dressy basques, ay previously mention ed, are laced down the the bark, and fre quently also upon the open side seams of the skirt. Generally speaking, however, all models are unusually plain. Loose basques, supplied as portions of an out door costume, are double breasted. with rolling collare, large, English pockets, and double rows of buttons on the plain pos tillion-skirts. The general design is made to resemble a gentleman's English hunt ing -coat, and is accompanied by a white linen under handkerchief and showy but tons. Saques for the street are long, slen der, and abundantly trimmed with fringe, braid, etc., and this observation applies equally to Dolmans and c ther street-wraps described in a previous number. Sleeves to basques for the house are unusually dressy. In one model, a succession of silk cords trims the sleeve nearly up to the elbow, the cuff itself being of velvet. The collarette is also made of cords, with the terminating row of velvet. These lesser points seem to provide places for the showy trimmings which are no longer seen upon basque-skirts. Pockets, too, are ex • tremely elaborate in form and in garniture also, while Pompadour squares, exquisite ly laid in pleats, or in succession cords. Martha Washington handkerchiefs, and fichus, elaborately trimmed, accompany costumes of various kinds. The record of Fashion for the current season is a credit able one, for, though abounding in ca prices, no style introduced has been con demned for grotesqueness or impractibili ty.—liumestic Monthly fir December.

As a result of his earnest preaching, ha had semi-occasipnally a large number to baptize in the river which pleasantly meanders along the southern limits of the city. In a recent batch he immersed was a colored woman weighing in the vicinity of two hundred pounds She was the last one "to lose her guilty stains," and as a verse had been sung by the assembled church choir at the baptism of the other candidates for church prefer ment, the choir started op with, ere the elder had fairly concluded the sentence commencing, "1 baptize thee," "The morning light is breaking : The darkness disappears." What made the matter more ludicrous, just as the choir uttered "the darkness disappears," the head of the colored wo man went under the water with a tremen dous souse. The spectators were coneal sed with laughter; to suppress it was im possible. It was the belief of some pre sent, who knew the wit and eccentricities of the elder, that be bad selected the verse sung when the sable convert was baptised, but as to the truth of this, "deponent smith not."—Editor's Drawer is Harper. dew I/ Tn stock of Holiday Goods now open ing at the JOIJZ\AL Store was •elected with a view to meeting the wants of this community, and all articles will be sold at prices to suit the hard times.
