By Jtev. Petrotoim V. A'a?.
I've brought back tlo pipe, lawyer, nd fetcfi-
cd the parson hera,
To sco that things are regular, settled up fair
nnd clear
For I've been tnlkhg Tlth Caleb, aud Cakjb has
talked with Be,
And the 'mount of ( is we'ro minded to try ouco
moro to ngrc;.
So I came here on tie luslncss only a word to
say,
(Caleb Is staking p Vines uud couldn't eomo
io-iny,
Just to tell you aril parson bow that we've
changed our mud
So I'll tear up the puper, lawyer, you sco R
wusu't signed,
Aud now if parson Is ready, I'll wa!U with him
toward home,
I want to thank bin for somo things ; 'twas

But it's right that " "houiii isuow, parson,

We'd becu somo 'IS ' o-waverlu ft little, Caleb
And wlsifcd"! hateful parcr at tho bottom of

' ani t,lC 'cw words jou said,
That thawed the ico betvecu us, and brought
thligs to a head.
You see, when wo canio to division, tlicro wu3
things wo couldn't iivlde ;
Thcro was our twelve-yea' old baby, she couldn't
be satlslled
To go with one or the oth;r, but Just kept whlm
pcrlu' low,
"I'll ttny with papa anc mautiuu, aud where
they go I'll go."
Thou there was GrnnJsire'i Bible ho died on our
wcddlug day
Wo couldn't balvo tho tld Bible, aud chould it
go or stay i
Tho sheets that were Caleb's mother's, her
samplar on tho wall,
With the sweet old uaniei worked in Tryyhcna,
aud Eunice, uud Piul.
It began to be hard then, parson, but it grew
harder still,
Talkln of Caleb cstablislcd down at McIIonrys-
VillCi
Three dollars a week 'twould cost no tneudin'
uor sort of care.
And boi.rd at the widow Mcachnm's, a woman
that wears false huir!
Still wo went ou a-talkiu' j I agreed to knit cutuc
gocks,
And uiuko a dozen striped shirts, and a pair of
wutuus liocks,
Aud ho was to cut a doorwuy from the kitclica
to tho tlied :

'Twas then you dropped In, parson : 'iwasu't

Little children, love one another," but tho
tluug was killed btouc deud.
I should like to rnnko confession net that I'm
going to say
Tho faint was all on my tide, that never was in

But It may be truo that women tho' bow 'tij

Then, pareon, the nelglibtrs meJdllu' it wasu't

And the church u-l.ibniui' wlt'i us, 'twas worse
than wasted toil ;
Aud I've thought, and o las Caleb, though may-

If they'd kept to their ou bUtlueiiS, wu bkould

for S-tfay. If I intended tho fuueral of a
.Vbarted friend, nnd wept as they threw the
earth upon his coliiu, 1 would hear a whis
per, nud, turning around, tlicro would be
the imkiiuiUible lienjamiu 1'. Guun, burst

I cot so sick of Ci uuu's persecutions that I
left towu suddculy one eveuin'j; nnd hid
myseii 111 a secliuloil country village, hop
ing to get rid of him. At tho end of two
weeks 1 returned, reaching home nt ouo iu
the morning. 1 had hardly got into bed
beforo thcro was a ring at the door bell. 1
looked out, nud there was (J unit with nu
otlicr person I Ho naked if Max Adder
was at home. 1 said 1 was tho man. Mr.
Guau then observed that ho expected my
return, and thought ho would call around
about that insuranco policy, lie said he
had tho doctor with him, and if 1 would
eomo down ho would take my name nud
nave me examined, immediately. 1 was
too indignaut to reply. 1 6hut tho window
with a slam nnd went to bed ngaiu. Afler
breakfast iu the nioruiu I opened the front
door, and there was tiunu sitting on the
steps with his doctor, wailing lor me. Ho
had been thcro nil night. As I camo out,
they seized nic nnd tried to undress mo
tlicro on tho pavement in order to cxamino
me. 1 retreated nnd locked myself in tlio
garret, with ordei'3 to admit nobody to tho
House unlit 1 camo uowu siairs.
5ut Gunn wouldn't be balllcd. Uo ac
tually rented the houso next door, nnd sta
tioned himself iu the garret adjoining niiue.
Yv ncn nc got tixcil lie spout his time pound
ing on tho partition nud cryiug : "Hallo I
Atleler ! Adder 1 I say 1 How ubout that
policy r want mo to unco her out now r"
And tiicu he would tell mo somo mors
anecdotes nbout men who wcro cut oil im
mediately nfttr paying tlio lirst premium.
liuL 1 paid no ntluutiou to him aud mado
no noise. Then ho was silent for awhile.
Suddenly, one nioruinj;, tho trap door of
my parrct was wronciieu 011 ; mid, upon

mised him twenty moro if bo would exclude

Unco sakly ou the ball 1 mado myself com
fortable, with tho thought that 1 had Gunn
nt adisadvanluoc, and i dctcrmiucd to boat
hint linal!y, if 1 bad to stay there a month.
About an hour afterward, while I w.13
bukiug at the superb view tu tho west, .1
heard a rustling arouud 011 the oilier side
of the steeple. I looked uround and thcro
was Benjamin 1'. Guun creeping up the
side ot that .spire in a balloon, iu which
was tlio Doctor uud tho tabular estimates

1111c system 1 4s soon us Guuu reached
tno uuii 110 tnrow his grappling iru.n into
the shingles of tho steeple, and asked mo
at what age my lather bad died, and if uny
of my ttuuts ever had lue consumption or
liver complaint. Without wailing to reply,
I slid down tho steeple to tlio ground, uud
100K iuu urst 1 rain :ui- tlio .Mississippi al

determined to go to the interior nnd seek
some wild spot 111 some elevated region,
where no Guun would ever dare to come.
1 got on a mule nnd paid a guide to had

explaining tlio tuiluvviiiiKiit plan to his

ty table, while tlio doctor h id the uthcr

see if he was healthy! Mr. Guun arusu
uud said he was gi.i l to sco me, because
now he could talk over that busitnss about

of fino nnd bcnutirul noodlcwork.
Sewing machines nro now very common
indeed, nud two-thirds of tho posst'stors of
theso negative blessings will tell you that
for some renson or other, they aro not nenr
ly ns well os thtvr, cd to be ; tliey nave a
dreadful pai 1U llleir hack, their iunbs nrc
weak nni' trembling, they aro languid, the
joints oi their knees swell, their sides nnd
shoulders nchp, or they Iiavo a lameness
across Jheir chest. You surjgcU Hint tho
runchii" nmJ something to do with it,
nud k,ty aru al1 iu atuis nt ouce. " Ves, it
I ti es tariii, out tucv could Dol get otong
'without it ; they would n'.t part ith it for
nuy money if they shouldn't pet nnothcr.
Tlicy could not possibly dress like other
people if it was not for the mnehino. AnJ
you repeat mentally that convenient saying
nbout "tho fooLVniid odd, "dio t lien, if
you had rather bo out of the world than
out of tho fashion."
Justice constrains no tn admit tlmt sew
ing machines tiro well enough iu them
selves, nnd that their work is of exceeding
beauty nnd utility, but it is tho vsc of them
that does the mischief. If a bard-working
mother of a family would take a nico ma
chine in good order, nnd do her eewing
with it In the plain mnnnerehewns obliged
lo do beforo the advent of sewing mncbiiit'S.
nud tako tho time thus gained for rest and
recreation, it would prove a real blessing.
Jiut iu tho way they aro used, they nre fre
quently n, curse. 1 conscientiously believe
that tho most universal use of tho 6ewing
machine iu tho middle classou is the cause
of much of the physical degeneracy, and
lack of health nnd vigor, which is so com
moil nmoug a large class of girls and young
women. 1 am awaro that many people
will call this idea a bobby, nnd laugh it to
scoru, but I am euro nuy thoughtful and
reasouable person will ngroo with mo In a
measure. Those who laugh nt my theory
1 will first nsk if they ever saw a fat or even
respectable looking horBO iu the never-end-iug
wheel of a threshing machine or wood
saw.
Borrowtnjj TronMc.'
There is a class of people who arc, to Csc
a homely sayiug, always "borrowing trou
ble. They cultivate a frame of mind which
should not bo indulged in even by those
suffering bodily or mental affection, and
how much less, then, siiould wo excuse it
in persons surrounded with blessings, and
whoso lot, compared with tho average of
humauity, may bo deemed one of luxury
nnd case. Cnu tho great and bcnclicicnt
Creator, whoso eunshino irradiates tho
earth nnd shines aliko upou the high and
tho low, the just nnd the unjust ; whose
omnipotent nnd divine hand paints all
things that aro Dcauiuui in nature, iroiu
tho majestic clod to tho humblo llowcr ;
who numbers the very hairs of our heads,
aud is said to care even for the insignificant
sparrow can Ho forget our roes and sor
rows, and ceaso to bo pitiful to Ilia highest
creation
Trust iu an overruling Trovidcnco is
everywhere inculcated fn Holy Writ ; de
spondency ana repining nowncra. w e are
told that faith, that confidence, may rc
movo muumWa ,n:na 0f grief and
sorrow, mountains of doubt; mountains
of error. If there be nught of trust in our
nature let it repose on Him, iu whom there
is "neither variableness nor the shadow
of turning." That miserablo mutability
which characterizes frail hutrnnity per
tains not to tho Deity. Thcro is no uecd
of argument hero. Let tho aillicted rather
contemplate tho boundless mercy aud bc-ne-licenco
of their Creator than their own suf
ferings. Why will people, in the enjoyment of
health and competency, let their thoughts
wander into gloomy channels ; strive to
fathom futurity, nnd robo coming time iu
dark nnd chilly garments, wrought out of
their own despondent fancy? Such people
we couaider mentally diseased, aud suiur
ing under a malady which clips tho wings
of faith and trust, nnd gives them over to
melancholy and despair. Despondcucy
belongs only to those doleful regions where
hope never comes. Wo were not pluood iu
this beautiful living world to brood and
dream of sorrows uud troubles that may
never come, nnd to see only horror iu every
cloud that crosses tho heavens.
Tncro is a better uso of the life which
God litis given us. Let us do our whole
duly, both to our fellow-beiugs und our
selves, with energy and cheerfulness, in
every condition iu which wo may be placed,
and trust tho Author of our beiug iu every
dispensation. "Trust iu God aud fear no
danger."
It is quite us easy to cultivate n hopeful
and cheerful temperament ; to look up-u
tho bright nide and pick out ihe brigiit Ryots
iu mutt oftho ccvurrcnct of life, as it ij
to despond over lliein. Lilo U loo tihni t,

A very singular nn.l striking cotifirma' ior
ol tho truth of certain aucietii, I lilikitcvoifls
lins lately been brought to lioht. The ! .n '.
of Monb, lying east or the Jordan aud Dead
fcien, beiug under Turkish ru e, nnd the
authorities being jealous of all tho inovr
liients of tiavcleis, 1ms been lcudol'u-ts-tcry,
nnd few nnd fir bctvt ecu tinvv Lien
exploratious of it. In IritlS, Jlcv. i". A.
Klein, a Prussian niissluuary at Jerttitv! j.u,
travrliug in Monb under Hie protcctiou of
an Arab Sheikh, discovered a remiirku' :?.
stone nniotig the ruins of the ancient city of
libon. The stone wns origiutiliy thr. e
feet nud live luetic iu height, nnd one foot
nine inches in width cud thickii'.'ss, with
an inscrii'tion of thirty-four lines. It is be
lieved that originally thcro were eleven hun
dred letters on the stcme, but ouly six hun
dred and jixty nino have been restored, r
it was partially broken In pieces nflor curi
osity concerning it luid led tho Arabs lo
suppose it valuable, nnd that money ceuld
Uo obtained for separate pieces, 'ihe in
scription wns in the ancient characters used
by the- inhabitants of Moah, nud lirvvir.
bteu dociphered by cdepls iu this fpeci-. j
of lore, it issatisltictoiily nsA'i iaiued tint
tho insciiptioti is older than most U tf "
(Jul J eslamcnt, nnd was, lieyond doubt,
made lu the year tlmt Elijah the prophet
was translated into heaven. It reaJs likj
ft chapter in the liiblc, and gives siren t
confirmation to the frets related iu the in
spired volume. It h.iaarnge of at lcat
twcnly-sevcn lutn,lrcd yenrs, being tl.e work
of a pel-son who dwelt iu immediate contact,
with the penple ol Israel during tho whol.i
period of their marvelous history. Tho in
scription narrates the achievements of
King Me&lia, the Moablto monnrch who
fought against Jchntam and Jchosnphnt,
nnd speaks oftho vessels of Jehovoh take
from tho captured kVebo and dedicated to
Chcmorc, the national deity of the conquer
or. 'This inscription not only depicts tlio
wars between Israel and Moab, so vividly
pictured in the Old Testament, but itlso
strikingly illustrates the historical, geo
graphical and religious relations of these
kingdoms. Thcro are few occurrences more
remarkable, even in this ngo of surprises,
than tho manner in which tho Moabitc
stone has been awakened from the sleep of
three thousand years, to unfold the secrets
of language, nnd of.history, nnd to confirm,
by its emphatic testimony, the essential
accuracy oftho Hook of Books.
Flowers nnd (Tellurcn.
In an article on the influence of toys in
educating and forming the tastes of child
ren, Blanchard Jcrrold writes charmingly
on tho subject of flowers. Ho says : I
would havo Uovrers crowded in the school
room windows of the very young. I would
build broad open balconies for tho baby
scholars; where, during every daylight
moment of fair weather, they might have
fresh air, and bits ot beauty, flowering un
der their inquiring eyes. 1 would havo the
Pouponnicro of Brussels copied ; making
elementary education begin not when n.
child has been already erected into a littl'j
monster by bad parents and evil surround
ing ; but in its protected cradle, in the first '
eliakmg 01 us rattle, and tlio Lirst pointing
of its Lingers to pictures nnd plants. Wu
should or our children would see tho
(,ood results of such cradle tenching ; of
tctbelics thrown into the alphabet, into the
toyshop, tho phy-grouud, nnd tho ndorn
ments of tho school-room. Tor tho child
that is alive to the simplest lessons nnd
beauties of tho field, that can delight in
striving to imitate if only with straw ot
paper a beautiful form placed before it, i
farther on tho way to a higher education,
even should subsequent cveuts prove unto
ward in its path, than tho crenture of dull,
uulormed eight in inlaucy, who may bo
kept well nt sehooi under good masters. 4V
feeling for tho beautiful, a delig'.lt in it,
which nt present is almost unknown iu
England, is that which wo shall strive
afler, not iu nrt acideraios, but iu infant
schools and nurseries. The roughest Dutch
doll is tho Venus do Medici to tho child
that nurses it. We givo tlio ugly ihiug to
the chiitl, and so mako for ourselves the
after-diiiieulty of provtug that dolly in ugly.
Tho remark appliis to nearly ail toys ; ter
tainly to all lUut are LugiibU.

A correspondent of tho Sticxt'h' U.uri
can writes :
It is 11 wtll-Liiowu fact that coal, cither
bituminous 01 nulhraeile, produces in min
ing, breaking, screeuing, uud handling, nil
amount ol duil, commonly kuown ns slack
coal, amounting on an average, to lifty per
cent, of the cntil production, thus causing a
considerable loss to the parties iive.iged in
minim;, ns but u small p,.; tioti of this dust
coal, and that only ot tun bituminous coal.
