By Request] The Deemed Man "Ephraim i, , joinoil to We idols, let him alone."Uose.A. There is a time, we know not when, A point we know not where, That marks the destiny of me“ To glory or despair. There is a line, by us unseen, That crosses every path ; The hidden boundary between God's patience and his wrath. To pass that limit is to die, To die as if by stealth ; It does not quench the beaming eye, Or pale the glow of health. The conscience may be still at ease, The spirit light and gay ; That which is pleasing still may please, And care be thrust away. But on that forehead God has set Indellibly a mark, Unseen by man, for man as yet Is blind and in the dark. And yet the doomed man's path below, Like Eden, my have bloomed ; He did not, does not, will not know, Or feel that he is doomed. lie knows, he feels that all is well, And every fear is calmed ; He lives, he dies, he wakes in bell, Not only doomed, but damned. O where is this mysterious bourne, By which our path is crossed ; Beyond which, God himself hath sworn, That he who goes is lost! How far may we go on in sin? How long will God forbear? Where does hope end, and where begin The confines of despair? An answer from the skies is sent : "Ye that from God depart! While it is called TO-DAY, repent! And harden not your heart." "My SrmiT SHALL NOT ALWAYS STRIVE WITS MAN."-GEN. Vi. B. For the JOURNAL.] In all the varied scenes of life, As we wander o'er and o'er, Each one is busy with its strife, Intent on gaining more. Each one is hoping, watching, waiting, For the better time to come, And swaying with the multitude To their eternal home. How few there are who stop to think, As in life's path they roam, That each before the bar of God, Must stand himself "Alone." Pause, then, and see, my wandering friend, Upon what ground you stand, Choose•ye the straight and narrow way, That leads to God's right hand. And when at last the change shall come, The Judge of all shall call us home, The angels will open the portals wide And we enter •'Alone" on the other side.

Social Topics—Neu Amusements—A Sale of JV'ete England China—A Busy Wo• man—The Last from Brooklyn—etc. NEW YORK, Feb. 23rd, 1876 The week may be summed up thus, in brief: weather in extremes, amusements insatiable. Business wedged in between time, With Lent already in view, the gayeties of the season whirl faster and fas ter, and there is no end to the fun this winter, though it may not be of the grand est kind. Still there is much social am bition to air the last refinement in receiv ing. People might very truthfully send out invitations which, would read, "to meet the new dinner service," or to exhibit the drawing-rooms, refurnished by Cottier, who is the fashionable high art furbisher, for those who eat, sleep and drink according to to standard. FASHIONABLE ENTERTAINMENTS. The young folks, of course, belong to a musical dramatic society of the selectest sort, which gives excuse for dozens of de. lightful evenings at rehearsal in cosy pri vate parlors, and a gratifying dash at public applause in the name of charity, which as of old beareth a multitude of sins amatuer and otherwise. Dickens parties, where one dresses after some character from the novelist, are more elaborate than ever. The characters are more deeply, studied, and their dress, manner, and speech are carefully taken from the pages of the "Household," or the "Globe" edition; of the novels. The more one can look like one of Cruikshanks designs the better. ROSEBUD PARTIES But for fun alive, and deepest dissipa tion, ,o to a rosebud party, to which all the ladies invited are seeing their first sea son in society—that is if you can get a card for it.. No favor dispensed by a kind and charming hostess is so coveted as an invitation to her rosebud party, for the compliment bears on the face of it that she considers you one of the eligibles of her ac quaintance. Going, you find the drawing rooms— nobody says parlors anymore ex cept an old fashioned fellow like myself, we take so closely after the English—hung with fern smilax and Spires, feathering from mantel and cornice, baskets of half= blownroses on every stand, and scores of debutantes in pink and cream-color float in, about, with all the mischief they learn ed at Mrs. Meares' or Madame Chegaray's at five hundred dollars a quarter, fresh in their pretty heads. These pretty bac chanals, fresh front up town boarding schools, waltz the wildest., flirt the deepest and sip champagne the most defiantly of any belles afloat, unless we except a few of our pretty married women—and do this with more freedom than they will ever find at command again. t,, 0 ;,, POUND PARTIES, This form of amusement is bound to be caught up at once for the use of church parties and ladies' charities, it is so cheap and so delivering at once, It has the pat ronage of fashion this winter, for it is a favorite form of spending a social evening among matrons and elderly business men who are not above having some fun of an evening in their good clothes. So while the young people are off in their pink gauze and dresscoats for a dance—say the "Elks" ball, or that of some select and expensive regiment—the rooms of the cosy Madison avenue - house are thrown open to a hun dred or so friends without any special prep aration of the way of flowers or music, but with a hot sit down supper to follow in comfort for everybody. The guests come well-dressed no: - , over dressed, for the end and aim of a pound party is .to have a good time. Each one is expected to bring with him or her a package of something or any thing to weigh exactly a pound, done up that nobody can tell what is iu it. The fun is to hold a parlor auction, with the glibbest speaker as auctioneor, and the par ~~~ ~! ro n 0I I a.. Alone. E. E. HALE HUNTINGDON, PA., FRIDAY, MARCH 3, 1876. eels are sold to the highest bidder unopen ed, for the benefit of some charity-whielt the hostess has at heart. Fun, is it ? You never saw such fun as when the packages are opened, and the Wall Street man who bid five dollars for a tissue paper parcel finds that it contains a bologna sausage, bought on the way up town by a fun loving matron, or the stiff bachelor bids off a girl's powder and rouge box or a frisky young married woman finds a pound of smoking tobacco in hers. Not a Nay great or high-toned amusement, like the informal coteries, upon Park ave nue, where the elect decide the movements of powers and parties in the interval of serious flirting and composing serene epi- grams LEAP-YEAR PARTIES Are discreetly indulged in, with the name of two or three married ladies of the high est standing at the head of the invitation cards, as vouchers for decorum, and the chic of the affair. The Centennial bad nearly put it out of people's beads that this is leap-year, with its perils and privileges. But since the "cabinet young ladies" in Washington have set the example of honoring the oc casion by a ball, leap-year Germans will vary the monotony of kettledrums and the glare of public balls. A KETTLEDRUM IN NEW YORK. Did I hear a quiet old lady (not to men tion a young one) say that she would like to know what is meant by a ketttledrutn With all the pleasure in life. It is an En. glish custom of inviting ono's acquaintance to a fashionable five o'clock tea, to which the ladies go in their bonnets, to gossip an hour with cups of tea in their hands, serv ed with very thin wafers It is essentially a city institution by which a good many persons who see each other often are got together, and an hour is made to do duty for a good deal of civility. For the coun try, the old fashioned tea drinkings are in better taste, and are given with zest by ladies in suburban towns, who like to play at being neighborly in the old way. Did I ever mention the friend who used to call4tis wife's kettledrums Beecher par ties, fur he declared their sole purpose was to get her friends together in their best bonnets, to talk over the latest of the Brooklyn scandal. That was long ago, however. At a kettledrum to-day, like that to which my pretty neighbor has gone this afternoon, one will meet a dozen magazine people, with their best manners on, and their prettiest things to say, two dozen handsome rich women who pet the literary ones, and laugh at their nice things, one or two women afflicted with a desire to be managing something, and who are stirring their acquaintance upon the momentous question of havin. , a women's banner at the Centennial exhibition, as if it were the original matter of difference with King George. They will get what they want ; there isn't one of their friends who wouldn't give them a subscription fur a banner to get rid of them. Besides these a few young men, who are at leisure because they can't get anything to do, and a parlor philoso pher or two will drop in to be the lemon in the tea. You- know the fashionable profess themselves unable to drink tea without a slice of lemon in it, in the Rus sian manner. OLD CHINA Fine ladies are getting as fond of old china as they were in Addison's day. Bat the difference is, that instead of filling their rooms with Chinese monsters, and dragon tea cups, they hare taken to mak ing historical collections of the various porcelain and potteries of the world. A plate of real Majolica, or a cup and saucer of royal sevres gives one esteem among connoissuers, as one who "has the right feeling of art," in this direction, but one who would win renown amatuers most have at least one broken-nosed specimen of all the wares from the time of Solomon down. Cabinets, carved and velvet-lined are consecrated to these treasures, where the royal blue and gold of true sevres and the splendors of Dresden are surrounded by gaudy Hungarian ware, in red, green and yellow. Hideous Madonnas in Majolica, ugly as the plaster parrots Yankee peddlers used to carry round, together with every species of old English dell known to the top shelves of kitchen closets. Alive to this increasing passion an enterprising speculator has been scouring New England villages and South Carolina homesteads for treasures of this sort, of whose value their owners never dreamed before. The sight:of the Somerville auction rooms where they were sold this week was very fnnny. It looked as if all the property of a coun try village was there for vendue. Sets upon sets of blue East India china, and odd pieces of cracked cream-colored wedge wood with black tracings, fragments of old English tea-sets of pretty chintz patterns, scaramouch Holland painted ware, and English blue dinner services, rehearsing the history of Dr. Syntax on their pictur ed sides, or scenes front the war of' Inde pendence, including portraits of George - Washington, were mingled in a sort of in digestion of china. The ugliest old pots and basins were there, with some really superb Staffordshire and handsome bits of Flemish pottery, long-necked, straight sided pitchers and jars embossed in indigo bine. I was shown a yellowish wedge wood pitcher, as common looking as the cheapest kitchen ware of to-day, the mate which brought $25.00 yesterday's sale. Let me warn all readers who think of selling their grandfather's funiture, or their grandmother's crockery for old rub bish, to be careful what they are about, for they may be throwing away a small fbrtune. If the man who had half a doz en silk Washingtons to sell happens to have any old tea sets or odd pieces, (the more forlorn the better,) he wants to trade, I will be happy to talk with him. A BUSY WOMAN If any of the girls who read this have an ambition to dabble in literature, I hope they may prove as capable of work and have as pleasant credit for it as Miss Gil der, the literary editor of the New York Herald, who besides dramatizing Dr. Hol land's novel of "Senenoaks," has written a play of her own, which is soon to be brought out at the Brooklyn theatre. Miss Gilder has had a fair showing of newspa per experience as former editor of the Newark Register, and a very acceptable New York correspondent, but will be bet ter recognized as the sister of Mr. B. W. Gilder, the poet, anl assistant editor of Serffiner's Magazine. TIIE LATEST FROM BILOOKLYg. A New York letter without Beecher would be like a New England Sunday without baked beans. From the appear ance of things in Plymouth Church, the present calendar year will be spent in prov ing what everybody is convinced of al ready. But the Council now convened at the call of the church itself is headed by Dr. Leonard Bacon, whose acuteness, veil. ed skillfully under t. daring frankness, will not hesitate to probe fir the troth in whatever direction it lies. It is possible that, Plymouth Church has counted too liberally on Dr. Bacon's support in the Connell. Already, shrewd questioning has drawn out the order of action in Mrs. Moulton's case, in which the ingenuity of Plymouth Church manoeuvring appears to better advantage that its honesty by a long sight. It didn't propose to go on with the Council in spite of its own protest, till it was sure that Drs. Storrs and Buddington was pretty certain not to come. Plymouth Church and its pastor are always magnan imous when there is nothing to lose. All the social arts of the society are brought to bear on the delegates; they are kept supplied with flowers, and the latest papers to read, and ready for mailing. A hand some lunch is spread for them in the church parlor all the time, and carriages are at their command. But neither Dr. Bacon nor the Andover men have come for a free lunch. MR. BOWEN AND MR. JOHNSON Mr. Bowen is choosing his time and method of presenting his proofs so as to throw their full light on Mr. Beecher without dragging his victims into the glare. The satanic brain which makes the moves for Plymouth Church sees the only defence possible is to refuse any evidence from Mr. Bowen that will not damage others worse than Mr. Beecher. To give name and dates to the public as they demand, would drag more than one family of the Church into disgrace. Mr. Beecher's safety lies in the irreparable nature of the injury he has done his victims. Mr. Bowen knows that the utmost malignity of Plymouth will visit him when he speaks, and this with the stronger consideration of human ity to the injured and the innocent, may well give him pause. Mr. Oliver Johnson, former editor of Beecher's paper, does not show so well since the publication of an old letter of his to Mr. Bowen, pleading for Mr. Tilton, and speaking emphatically of Mr. Beecher's guilt. Mr. Johnson and Professor Tyler appear to have "crawfish ed" badly under the influence of a position on the Christian Union. And the charge of blackmailing made against poor Mr. ',oder is proven true of another man en tirely, and the Tribune is manly enough to come out and do the poor upholsterer justice. There is much feasting on toad pie in many quarters, nowadays, over the latest view of things. State. The Clarion river was higher last week than it had been since 1861.

This treatment had its effect. The Half Housekeeper. She was nnly a half hensekeeptr. Go where you would about her bowie, there was neither taste or neatness. She worthd begin thing with great avidity, but lose al: her zeal before she got through. Or her husband's new half riox-n shirts ail were partially finialud. I )ne wanted sleeves, another collar and wri-tbands, another bosom and gussets—and so on through the list. Several skeletons of quilts lay torl'olded in the drawers, and her tables and trunks were loadA with tuaguifieent promises. Iler bread was always unpalatable be cause she forgot, this or that—and though she had been married ten years, in all that time the table was never rightly laid for a meal. Either the salt was wanting, a knife or spoon, or some important ingred ient. This afforded good exercise for the family, and there was at all times a con tinual running to and fro. Yes, she was a half housekeeper. Her meats were never properly cared fir after dinner—and then it was "La : throw it away, it ain't worth much." There al ways stood in her musty swelling pantry, mouldy meat, and mouldy cheese. There always lay about her room, a dozen gar ments worn out by trampling rather than use. She was forever tripping over brooms —forever wondering why on earth she had so much work to do—forever running up stairs for something ehe had left down in the cellar, or flying down in the cellar for what she had thrown in the garret. A half housekeeper : tier children's clothes came to pieces the second flay be cause they were only half wade—her pre serves soured the second day because they were only halt' done—and her temper soured quicker than anything . vise. She was continually lamenting that she ever married, and wondering where some people got their knack of house work. She loved to clear a corner for herself and sit with her arms folded. She loved to gos sip—loved to have some new scheme on hand, for then she was furious till it WWI begun, and always lost her enthusiasm at' ter the first stitch. "0: dear me :" seemed to be the extent of her voeabulary, time days, and it would make one sad to watch her listless movements and hear her de clare that no woman worked as hard as she, which was partly true, for she had no method. She never received company without apology, and never sat them down to a decent table. She dragged through life and worried through death, for which. I fear, like everything else. she was only half prepared, and left six daughters to follow her example, and curse the world with six more miserable half housekeepers. PIETRO. How They Cured The Tutor. lie was a pink of perfection. If the cream of human excellence was to be churned the butter would lump up in the shape of Professor Porteous Prye, tutor. He had contracted the bad habit of steal ing up stairs, in his stocking feet, to see if the lizhts were out at ten. It is hard teaching old dogs new tricks, btu boys sometimes succeed better with old rr.fe. sors. Tommy Tayre is a cadaverous youth. with a sulphur colored moustache, but the iron had entered his soil. and he said ho must do what he could. So he hieight three papers of carpet tacks "Tit! night. and stood the inuocont little nails on their heads all the way up and down the stairs. and retired with his faithful followers to the wood closet above to await results. Promptly the chapel h• 211 struck ten. the: a season of waiting and whispering follow ed. Presently came a furry. creeping sound like woolen stockings feeling their way over rough boards. Tnualy tacked his hat in his mouth—tiffs mouth rims clear around, except a small isthmus wnicli con meets the top of his head with the tripe of neck—and held his nose till the first hoist of glee had subsided. Now came a sup pressed scream, one foot on the stairs ; then a other Gout down ; then a scream that wasn't suppressed ; then a howl ; lie had struck the second stair ; then he ,at down on the next step, but he got up again, and a groan with exclamation points after it. came tearing up to the wood closet The boys stood back to give Tommy room to kick ; then came a scrabbling and shout ing of heavy words and a distinct mention of the name of the -father of iniquity," and Tom appeared and asked in a voice fresh from the valley of Nod, "What seems to be the matter ?" "Matter :" "The boys ;" "the demons ;" "confound it ;" "see here ;" -help !" and he shifted about and hung to the railing, and tried to stand on his knees. Tum brought a light, and the boys car ried the wounded man to his room ; offered sympathy ; got a clawilanimer and drew out the tacks. The proressor wears slip- Pet , and 4i IA on a cushion. Torn sets on - li ettlei, fur seventeen boys know the secret, and it is spreading, like small pox in an Indian camp. What is a :zentleman ? Is it simply this, a man of perfect and unsullic 1 honor. No 1111111, however fine his clothes or ele gant his manners, can be a gentlemen un less his instinctive sense of honor is as fine as "the ear" of a mns;cal composer. who listens to musicians, who plays his own works, so that he could not do a dishonest, a mean, or a cruel thing for the whole world. Ile will not be honorable only in those plainer paths over which the law keeps a strict watch. or course he wilt pay his debts, and forbear to lie or steal. or t-, have more wives than one; and his word is as good as oath or bond could be Being decent'; honorable, he will keep hi• g iv en promise to a man and his troth plight to a girl, and will rufrain from oirenlating scandal concerning a woman, or showing his love letters; but there are also a thous and delicate points on which he ha.• no doubt whatever. Ile knows when he may give arid when lie may take ; when a thing may be forgiven and when to forgive, or rather forget, would be an eternal strain upon his honor. For in this world to blot out some memories is to blot. one's own life. Not that a man need seek re venge, only be must renumb.r that he may not give an honorable hand to be clasped by one which is stained by dishonor. He takes no favor that is not right to take; and so he ever takes one generously. and returns it when he may. Those who trust in him trust well. They are never betrayed. The man of honor is a man with a heart ; therefore he is never a dirt. Ile leaves no woman in doubt as to whether he is her friend or her lover—no. not the vainest or the silliest of her sex ; and when be marries, he has no secrets from his wife nor does she have any from him.
