Itev. G. W. Miller, of Hellelonto, bo-
iiig jiresent was requested tb address
the children.1 jus tneme was. " A gooa
nanre it rat her to be chosen than great
richer)." ' The Apeaker remarked that
great richetf would not fcny respect,
but a good name will eornmansi resiieet
which no one can take away. If a
child has a good name, rooted in Christ,
it will grow op until it reaches a height
ike yonder Drfght stars in the nrnia-
mont will grow- up until it reaches
that home above, where Its ftatne shall
bt recorded in the Book of Life and
dwell tin-over with Joans in Heaven.
Mr. Itheem, the President of the As
sociation, next addressed the children
An "The Object of the Hunday Hchaol
Convention." The' speaker said the
object Was to Impress religious truth
upon the minds ol tho youthto try
lo teach them Jo be good--try teat h
them to do right-o point Ahem to
tho Pavlor who died to rodeowi us from
sin, and giro us a home in Heaven. " '
Hu. Young was the next speaker.
His theme was. "I.4r.t:: Ho mid that
all children, by nut it'wen lost thirt-
Jeans earae to seeK the' lost--.hat It
yon will seek And love Jimis ho" will
save Vtii all. Children tor that Sa-
vinr, and be saver' anil gntliertd into
His Kingdorn.'. '-.. - i
Rev. Butler," In a few remarka, en
deavored to further impress span the
minds of the childron' that tlMiy were
Insl, Bnd that Jeaos ts tho good Shep
herd who ranio into this world to save
the lost---tn save the little eMIdrer'
and urged them to como to Jesna how:

the stiscusriinn, Ho remarked taat
this was a onejrided question that, no
donrit. all may be Christiana j But, tho
question 'dinner implied, that some
might not lie Chrisiiarrs--that they
might be the children of darkness.
Yet, as; .lesnt bad "aid,: "-Suffer little
children to come onto me," they nay
all become Christiana -through prtqier
instruction and training at home and
in the Habbath Hi-bnol., r -, t- ,!., ,,
Mr. Ijewla I. Irwin rnaiil he had no

and that the Hunday. Behoof was a

ble hope that their children will be
Christians that it waa not Deceasarr
for children to wander oft" into forbid

to beoome Chi 1st hint and be saved. ' i

i Around lAe"whole rock-bound coast
of England there is no more romantic
tpot than .wartiion Jfocit. it is a ma
rine resort that attracts thousands of
picnlceri during the summer, whilo In
the, winter it is tlie scone of tho wild
est storms. There is bo bouse at the
place whn the word 'house Is used
in ..tho,', ordinary human acceptation.
But there it a mansion cavemed out
of the solid, limestone cliff, with Its
drawing rooms, hall rooms, retiring
rooms and sleeping rooms, which for
half a century bus won the admiration,
of all beholders. Peter Allen, a bold
and during tmnggler, sought sanctuary
here in the early part ot the century.
Wltu.-tbe, assistance of some of bis
human tools ho cavorncd his mansion
in the rocks, and when the work was
half completed, ho brought home a
bride. No ono knew whence she came
or who she was. , But everybody saw
that she was a singularly handsome'
woman, i When, tho smuggling busi
ness ceased to be sale or prolitaLlo, Po
ter Allen devoted his energies to tho
establishment of his sea-cavem as a
summer hotel. Erury thing he touched

streets, aud the ravens perched on his
shoulders at his back or went thieving

could knock the bottom out of a tottlc

the feat, and he presented her with it
gold qiounu-d riflo, which she retains
lo this day. Lixsie was a brunette of
tbo magnificent .order, and in some
respects resembled nor father, r roui
the time the was sixteen she had num

aristocrat offered bis bond and fortune

Polly was a beautiful, llondo, proud
and jretty as-a picture., Local poets
of Nowcasllo, Sunderland and Shields,

SVSPRS SIOX BRIDGES.
Although we are accustomed to con
sider the saspensioa bridge at ene of
the triumpht of modem catjintering
skill, travelers and book worms are
better Informed. It ts really ene nf
tb oldest forms of bridge ounst ruction
in existence. I in tne year A. li. o,
M ing, the Emptrur of China, built one
in the rroviin-n nf- Y en-nan : it was
330 feet long, end tbo.. road' bed waa
hud directly . oa chains suspended
seross the river snd drawn compara
tively tsut. In the time of the Incns
of Ptrn, snspermion bridges across the
defiles of the Andes wsre-niado of
ropes oi tha bsiV of trees; a roadway
waa in some places constructed, and in
others a basket was drawn to aud fro.
Tbo latter plan Is in use in that Coun
try In tbfs day. ' The iron suspension
bndgei wss not brosght into use till
tbs year 1819, t he first being tho bridge
at Bcrwick-on-Twecd,, England. The
roadway was bung to 12 cables, and
the span Was 449 feet, $ considerable
distance tor a first attempt. Telford's
bridge over th Menai Strait has a
span of 680 feet,: Th Conroy bridge
over tho Thames at Hammersmith,
London, i'Si feet, wore considered
marvels ol engineering in their day ;
but the wire bridge at Pribnsrg, ftwits
erlsnd, with a span d 87ft ferH, eclipsed
all previous ssttewtunprrit. i But of late
years, suspension bridges have .boon
numerously construced, snd. we cease
to tnarvel at the dimensions they as.
sums. The Cincinnati bridge ha a
clear span ef I.H7 feet; and tb atottt
reratrkaMeof tU ibesutpensioa bridges
yet designed, , the N'ew York and
Brooklyn, it to have aspen of 1,896
feet, the whole bridge being 2,4,79 feet
long

THE JUVTQRY OF ' POSl'tltiX
... ,i STAMrN. '
.The introduction of the Ixmlal sya
tois, at il at present exists in all coun
tries on the globe, bat been credited to
England, when, in 1840, covers and en-
velo)S werecteyisedjo curry letters oil
over tho kingdom, . at ono penny tho
single rati. This plan was adopted
through tho exertions of Sir How land
Hill, who bas. been aptly termed the
"father of postage stamps.", Jt now
appears, however, that there is another
aspirant for the introduction of the
poetago stamp system. In Italy, as
far back as 1818, letter sheet were
prepared, duly stamped in the left
lower corner, while loiters wore deliv
ered by specially appointed couriers,
on the prepayment ol Ihe money winch
the stamp represented a courier on
horseback, and wa of three values.
It was discontinued in 1830. .' Whether
Italy or Great liritain first introduced
postage stamps, other countries began
to avail themselves of this method for
thoJ prepayments of letter, although
they did not move Very promptly in
the matter. ,.i , ,., , .,.
Great Britain enjoyed the mouopoly
of stamps for three years, and though
the first stamps wore issued in 1840,
sho has tnsiio fewer changes in her
stamps than any other country, and
has suffered no change at till 'in tho
main design tho portrait of Queen,
Victoria. ,In other countries, notably
iu our own, tho Sandwich Islands, and
the Argentine Republic, the honor ol
portraiture on the stamps It usually
distributed among men in high public
positions, but in . Groat Britain th
tjueen alone figures on her stamps, and
not even the changes that thirty-five
years have mado, in her liico are shown
