The Foreclosure of the Mortgage.
Walk right in the settin'-room, Deacon ; its all
in a muddle, you see,
But I hadn't no heart to right it, so I've just
let everything be.
Besides, I'm a-goice to-tnorrer--.I calk'late to
start with the dawn—
And the house won't seem so home like if it's
all upsot and forlorn.
I sent off the children this morn in' ; they both
on 'em begged to stay,
But I thought 'twould be easier, mebbe, if
was alone to-day.
For this was the very day, Deacon, just twenty
year ago,
That Caleb and me moved in ; so I couldn't
forget it, you know.
We was so busy and happy I—we'd ben mar-
Tied a month before—
And Caleb would clear the table and brush up
the kitchen floor.
He said I was tired, and he'd help me ; but,
law l that was always his way--
Always handy and helpful, and kind, to the
very last day.
Don't you remember, Deacon, the winter I
broke my arm ?
Why, Caleb skursely left me, not even to 'tend
to the farm.
There night and mornin' I saw him, a settiu'
so close to my bed,
And I knew him in spite of the fever that
made me so gild in my head.
He never did nothin' to grieve me until he left
me behind—
Yes, I know, there's no use in talkin', but
somehow it eases my mind.
And he sot such store by you, Deacon, I
needn't tell you now,
But unless he had your jedgraent, he never
would buy a cow•
Well, our cows is gone, and the horse too—
poor Caleb was fond of Jack,
And I cried like a fool this moruin' when I
looked at the empty rack.
I hope he'll be kindly treated ; twould worry
poor Caleb so
If them Joneses should whip the eretur— but I
s'pese he ain't like to know.
I've ben thinkin' it over lately, that when
Mary sickened and died,
Her father's sperrit was broken, for she was
allnß his pride.
He wasn't never so cherry ; he'd smile, but the
smile wa'n't bright,
And be didn't care for the cattle, though once
they'd ben hie delight.
The neighbors all said he was allin', and they
tried to hint it to me ;
They talked of a church-yard cough ; but oh I
the blind are those who won't see.
I never believed he was goin' till I saw him
a layin' here dead—
There, there I don't be anxious, Deacon; I
haven't no tears to shed.
I've tried to keep things together—l've ben
slavin' early and late—
But I couldn't pay the int'rest, nor git the
farm-work straight.
So of course I've got beliindhand, and if the
farm should sell
For enough to pay the mortgage, I s'pose
be doin' well.
I've prayed ag'inst all bard feelin's, and to
walk as a Christian ought,
Bat it's herd to see Caleb's children turned
out of the place he bought ;
And readin' that text in the Bible 'bout wid
ows and orphans you know,
I can't think the folks will prosper who are
willin' to see us go.
But there I'm a-keepin' you, Deacon, and it's
nigh your time for tea.
"Won't Lc.ome over?" No, thank you ; I feel
betty alone you see.
Bealdes,l couldn't eat nothin ; whenever I've
tried it to day
Merit Something here that chokes me I'm
ifiliotis, I s'pose you'll say.
"I've worked too bard?" No, I haven't. Why,
it's work that keeps me strong ;
If I sot here thiakin', I'm sartin my heart
would break before long.
Not that I care about living'. I'd rather be
laid. sway
In the place Pie marked beside Caleb, to rest
till the jedgment day.
But there's the children to think of—that
makes my dooty clear,
And Pll try to foller it Deacon, though I'm
tired of this earthly speer.
Good-by .thee. I shan't forgit you, nor all
tire kindness you've showed ;
'Twill help to cheer me to-morrer, as I go on
my lonely road.
Fee=—What are you sayin', Deacon ? I needn't
—I needn't go ?
You've bought the mortgage, and I can stay ?
Stop ! pay it it over slow—
Jeatmaraoss—at* st. wait a minute—l'll take
it rn bims-by
That t can stay. Why, Deacon,l don't know
what makes me cry !
I haven't no words to thank you. Ef Caleb
was only here,
He'd sech a bead for speakin', he'd make my
feelin's clear.
There's a picture in our old Bible of an angel
from the skies,
And though he hasn't no great coat, and no
spectacles on his eyes,
He looks jest like you, Deacon, with your
smile so good and trew,
And whenever I see that picter, 'twill make
me think of yon.
The children will be so happy Why, Dellby
will 'most go wild ;
She fretted so much at leaven, her garding
behind, poor child
And law ! I'm as glad as Debby, ef only for
Rat one thing—
Now I can tend the posies I planted there last
spring
On Caleb's grave ; he loved the flowers, and
it seems as ef he'll know
They're a Woomin' all around him while he's
stapin' thembelow.
How to Make Excellent Pickled
Peaches.
To fourteen pounds of peaches, peeled,
put three pounds of brown sugar, three
teaspoonfuls of cinnamon, three teaspoon
fuls of powdered cloves, to one quart of
strong cider vinegar. Let the vinegar,
sugar and spices boil a very little while ;
then put in your peaches, and let them
scald enough to stick a straw through
them with ease. Take them out, put
them in an earthen jar, seeing that the
vinegar covers them well, which must be
poured over the packed peaches. Place a
cover tightly over them the first day ; the
second pour off the vinegar, heat it to a
boiling-joint, and return it hot to the
fruit. Repeat the process until the
peaches are fit for use. Four or five times
are generally enough to cure them. Cover
up tightly then. Watch from time to
time, and if the slighest fermentation
°tours, scald the fruit once more, skim
ming off the juice any scum that rises to
the surface. These pickles generally,
however, keep adthirably ; the main point
to secure this being the seeing that the
fruit is freshly gathered and sound.—Kan
gas Painnier.

the whole insert the flower pot, letting the

the flower pot with a cork ; then dash

process several times a day, or whenever it

evaporate the water from the pot, and the
butter will be as firm and cool as if from

BY OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.
"Bring me my broken harp," he said
"We both are wrecks—but as ye will--
Though all its ringing tones have fled,
Their echoes linger round it still;
It had some golden strings, I know,
But that was long—how long!—ago.
"I cannot see its tarnished gold,
I cannot hear its vanished tone,
Scarce can my trembling fingers hold
The pillared frame so long their own ;
We both arc wrecks--a while ago
It had some silver strings, I know.
"But on them Time too long has played
The solemn strain that knows no change
And where of old my fingers strayed
The chords they find are new and strange ;
Yes ; iron strings—l know—l know—
We both are wrecks of long ago.
"We both are wrecks—a shattered pair—
Strange to ourselves in Time's disguise
What say ye to the lore sick air
That brought the tears from Marian's eyes ?
Ay I trust me—under breasts of snow
Hearts could be melted long ago.
"Or will ye hear the storm-songs crash
That from his dream the soldier woke
And bade him face the lightning flash
When battle cloud in thunder broke ?
Wrecks—nought but wrecks—the time was
When we two were worth a thousand men!'
And so the broken harp they bring
With pitying smiles that none could blame ;
Alas 1 there's not a single string
Of all that filled the tarnished frame
But see 1 like children overjoyed,
His fingers ramble through the void.
"I clasp thee ! Ay mine ancient lyre
Nay guide my wandering fingers There !
They love to dally with the wire
As Isaac played with Esau's hair
Hush I he shall hear the famous tune
That Marian called the Breath ofJun9 I"
And so they softly gathered round ;
Rapt in his tuneful trance he seems ;
His fingers move ; but not a sound!
A silence like the song of dreams
"There ! ye have heard the air," he cries,
"That brought the tears f,•om Marian's eyes."
Ah, smile not at his fond conceit,
Nor deem his fancy wrought in vain ;
To him the unreal sounds are sweet—
No discord mars the silent strain
Scored on life's latest, starlit page—
The voiceless melody of age.
Sweet are the lips of all that sing,
When nature's music breathes unsought,
But never yet could voice or string
So truly shape our tenderest thought
As when by life's decaying fire
Our fingers sweep the stringless lyre !
That we are surrounded with unsolved
mystery is universally conceded. But
thus admitting furnishes no good reason
for denying facts. Now men and things
exist, and these are facts. The question
is, how they came ? There is but one of
the two ways. They either made them
selves, or some power above the objects
made, originate them. Now, how could
an object or being make itself before it
had a being ? Man's own being is not in
himself, nor can he continue his existence
only by obeying those rules of safety as he
may judge the most secure, nor is he then
self-secure.
Common sense observation, and all
things around us, are in proof of a maker.
We know the dodge of infidels. They
say the law of nature do thus and so; but
this argument confutes itself in that
knowledge is implied, as though all objects
of time at once concluded to come into
being, and then made rules and laws for
the government of the whole. There is
as great stretch of credulity in receiving
this infidel philosophy as that Jonah swal
lowed the whale, instead of the whale
swallowing Jonah.
Now Christians say that this mighty
globe had a Maker, and they make infidels
acknowledge this fact; or that objects of
nature always did, and will always make
themselves in the most unreasonable posi
tion possible; they dissent from Christian
theology, and are thereby driven into an
absurdity that they should blush to own.
No man can solve his mysterious com
pound ; and yet infidels, equally involved
as to his natural and moral endowments,
go from home, and undertake to account
for nature's grand machinery. Why not
give sensible solutions of the mysterious
formation and harmony that exist in them
selves first?
Where are the mighty achivements of
infidels? What rules of life are they giv
ing to better man's condition ? They take
away Christian rules and give nothing
instead. We call for those rules of life in
contrast with Christian doctrines, and if
better promise adherence. W. 11.
The Strength of Christianity
—Harpers.
The ark of God was never taken until
abandoned by its earthly defenders. In
captivity its sanctity was sufficient to save
it from insult, and to lay the hostile fiend
prostrate on the threshold of his own
temple. The real security of Christianity
is to be found in its benevolent morality,
in its exquisite adaptation to the human
heart, in the facility with which its scheme
accommodates itself to the capacity of
every human intellect, in the consolation
which it bears to the house of mourning,
in the light with which it brightens the
great mystery of the grave.
To such a mystery it can bring no addi
tion of dignity or of strength, that is part
and parcel of the common law. It is not
now for the first left to rely on the force
of its own evidences, and the attraction of
its own beauty. Its sublime theology con
founded the Grecian schools in the fair
conflict of reason with reason. The bravest
and wisest of the Caesars found their arms
and their policy unavailing, when opposed
to the weapons that are not carnal, Land
the kingdom that was not of this world.
The victory which Porphyry and Diocle
tian failed to gain, is not, to all appearance
reserved for any of those who, in this age,
have directed their attacks against the last
restraint of the powerful, and the last hoc°
of the wretched.—/Ilacaulay .
THE whole Christian Church, not to
speak of society in general, needs to bring
all its wisdom and all its influence to bear
upon this momentous problem of our times.
The right thing for all our pastors, ses
sions and churches to do, is to help forward
the cause of temperance by working from
within, while others are working from
without. There is room enough and work
enough for all classes of workers. The
interests at stake are too vital and momen
tous to allow us oven to seem indifferent.
ALL our evils are to be traced up to two
things—high views of ourselves and low
views of Jesus.

MR. M. R. STrVENB
Dear Sir—Your "Vegetine" has been doing wonders
for me. Have been having the Chins and fer,r, con
tracted in the swamps of the Sonth, nothing giving me
relief until I began the We of your Vegetine, it giving
me immediate relief, toning up my system purifying
my blood, giving strength ; whereas all other medicines
weakened me, and filled my system with poison • and I
am satisfied that if families that live In the ague districts
of the South and West would take Vegstine two or three
times a week, they would not be troubled with the
"Chia," or the malignant Fevers that prevail at certain
times of the year, save doctors' bills, and live to a good

ALL InszAsEs oP TIIP: BLOOD. If Vegetine will relieve
pain, cleanse, purify, and cure such diseases, restoring the
patient to perfect health, after trying different physicians,
many remedies, suffering for years, is It nut conclusive
proof, if you are a sufferer, you can be cured ? Why to this
medicine performing such great cures? It works in the
blood, in the circulating }laid. It can truly be called the
Great Blood Purifier. The groat source of disease origi
nates in the blood; and no medicine that does not act
directly upon it, to purify and renovate, has any just
claim upon public attention.

rheumatism, and numerous other complaints ? Remove
