ROM 1(;, President elli I 111 1.1 THE ('ITT OF ItOST(►\ The Innum libel suit has brought out. some imporMnt testimony in ,regard to the City of Bostmx,which sailed front llidifax on the 28th oft January, since which nothing has been heard of her. The libel said to have been. contained in the letter of Mr..lenkins was sub stantially a statement that the steamer left this country in an unseaworthy condition. Several witnesses testified that site Was not overloaded for a winter voyage, that her red line was above water, and one witness remarked that she made the trip from New York to Halifax in an dinpreeedentedly short time, anti he judged everything about the ship to be in good condition. For the defence prominent citizens testified that she was low in the water. A Nova Scotian ship-owner thought she was too deep on loiving New York. lie felt some anxiety as to her condition. From the second ()dicer, he learned that a new screw had keen put in, having a fan of only two .wings, instead of three, as she had before. Ile heard a peculiar noise at every revolution of the screw, and was not easy on hoard the ship that night. Although he had traveled in ocean (steamers, he thought he had never made a trip in one so deeply laden its the City or Boston. lie left the ship at ilatifax. Philip 11. NVarner, a machinist, went on board the steamer to see the chief engineer, as he was in the habil of doing nearly every time she came to Italifax. Ile saw that her shad had been heated, and had some conversation in regard to that hod. , As the stalcments of the chief engineer were admitted subject to objection we publish that portion of his evi dence :—" The chief engineer said the main shad had loded, and that it was not rtmning true, the same as it had done with the three• Winged fan, and that he had to drive the en gine IhAer, (nol the shafting taster, which was the (new of Ow heating. Ile said the steamer hail been over-11ri Vlll In her hud trip from New Yolk to Halifax, and still she was not doing the same amount or wo r k s h e hnd h„„ doin g ; nod hp never approved oh a two.winged Om, and never ran a bout with one all the time he had been an engineer. Ile helped to put on the two winged hut In Nevi* 'Yuri:. He told me the fico-!ringefl fan would heal her, and be likely to iqt her on fire. Ile waA not very will ing to go home in her with ae two-winged fan." Phc publication of Further testimony in this case will he looked for with much interest. The theory that SIIWWIIM burned seems much More probable, in view of the evidence given thus far, than that she collided with an ice berg. Nowyntcrxxmxo the predictions to • the contrary, the opinion expressed in thesc: col umns a few days ago that the European war Would. not be a short one seems to be con firmed by the latest despatches. MacMahon has left the protecticin of the capital to the forces under General Troche and will attempt to raise tin! siege of Metz. The uninterrupted triumph of the Prussian arms may be checked, for the time being, and heavy lighting will have to he done and immense sacrifice of life made before the French will be compelled to give up their Emperor. WESTON' having aahloved success with hts feet, has been trying his band at 'diplomacy, )41;yjug fuldressed a letter to the American iu Europe, asking their favorable consideration in his attempt to show " the cf. eW inonarchieS" how to walk. All replied laibifactorily to John, except Minister John Jay, at Vienna, who will:not net in so memos- WM a matter without oWicit instructions from the State Department. • IT is a praiseworthy work that our doctors have been engaged In for 'several years en deavoring to rid the profession of quacks. It Is a work of deep interest to the general pub lic and as the servant of the public we feel called upon to criticise efforts in that direc lion. The Allopathic Colleges, since 1847, have been working to establish a uniformity in different colleges as to the standard of edu cution which entitles medical students to n diploma, and to regulate the fees charged for admission to theft courses of lectures, and al though a joint committee of the Colleges and the American Medical Association in 1800 agreed upon a set of resolutions governing the matter, we have yet to hear of one college living up to them. But the difficulty has at last been met. A path for all to follow has been marked -out, and the relief comes from the aristocratic city of Louisville, in the State of Xentucky. The faculty of the Medical College of that city have done the work in an address just issued to the physicians and stu dents of the United States. It has determined to Insist upon a superior standard of educa tion and to require the payment of what are considered high fees for receiving the wisdom of Its lectures. We can't object to the educa tional standard, but the ."high fees" savors too strongly of keeping the profession sacred to the rich alone. The defense is that '!small fees, as a rule, do not offer an inducement to men of superior ability to act as teachers, but even if by endowment or State aid a college is able to pay good salaries to competent teach ers, It yet must charge suitable fees for in struction or be content with a class of pupils who will neither be a credit to their ali n e nut ter, nor a benefit to the community.'' II all the colleges should adopt this plan they could completely 'shut out those young men who succeed best in it. Because a young man Is poor that is no reason he should be prohibited from entering the profession. Will the,ob ject aimed at be accomplished, will the public be benefited by keeping out poor people as a class who will not be a ci•edit to alma mater? Suppose a college that is endowed or receives snificient aid from any source to pay first-class salaries to first-class professors, and is mainly independent of scholars'lees, should that col lege be required to exact the same fees that are paid by rich students in more aristocratic colleges to no better professors ? While the system of free public eduentlina has made edu cation possible for nearly every one, 'rind jus titles, in fact demands, medical colleges to es tablish a high standard of admission, nothing has yet been done by, our Legislatures to ens ble all young men to get- wealth 'enough to I pay such fees as the Louisville doctors would have affeolleges ask. We venture to pre•'ict Ithat 'more ignoramuses will be found in the ! profession, if wealth Is made the stepping stone to it, than have ever beeti known be fore. The profession will then no longer he made up of brains, but• the title of M. D. will too often be sought after as a title de noting wealth and the degree will be ns ob noxious to the people as the titles of real no- WILL TOE STAN D BY TO CIIUNTY? It is stepecte'd that the nomination of I ler man Fetter for Assembly is a part of the phut for the formation of a new county, with Beth lehem as the county sent. It will be renoun bered that this project, if successful, will de- ‘ pri ye Lehigh County of a large amount, of territory. Lehigh is already one of the sn:fill est counties in the State and we can illy Mi . ord to part with any . of our townships to gee to make up new counties. In this Fall election we shall have the op• port unity or seeing how much logo the Dem °erotic party luck for the interests of our county. We call upon every voter, will. cent distinet'en of party, to drop every polit:cal consideration and vote for • the interests of the county. if Mr. Fetter is elected and he votes for the new county those who elect I.im will hate alert Cathie to regret tioit course. It is not a question which affects us now only, but once done it cannot be tm done. OUR NATIONA 'CREDIT IM PIU Our National credit, after the shock wl.ich the war mnbreaking so suddenly gave to all public confidence, shows steady improvement in Europe. One or the leading London money organs, the Financier, speaks most kindly of tins, recently. It says : "Order and peace are being as rapidly es tablished in America as they are being Hs tnrbed here. For a long time Wise men have felt fluid America passed through her trials. while Europe• is still upon the threshold of revoltitit;ns. The legislation at Washington Was conducted without II c slightest attention being paid to Europe or the opinions then 'Their government security is evidently-only second in its intrinsic value and safety to our consols. Crude and Miniature as may appear the no snores. political or financial, of the Americans, they, alter all, arrive at a wise and perfect. maturity." . Commenting upon this, the Philadelpbia North .:I r lea : "'The authority cited is a noted and relialile one. It Is one that reaches all classes in Eu rope, 111010 percolutiog to the common pim ple through capitalists and great dealers, whose opinions have prime weight. This authority assists the end it discloses by the disclosure, and its statement is calculated not only to re assure us in our own credit but to augment our assurance by the tonic it administers to our credit while approving our prospects. It is difficult to see that fuller indorsement could be asked l'or the national bonds and currency thou is here given. They are stated to be su perior to any except those of England itself', and it is easy to believe that many, noticing the rapid discharge of the debt here, concm rent With' an increase of the business by whith this is effected ; the ingress of population ; the extension or railways, and therettire readier marketing of producoop ; the rapid decree-, or political excitement and of the causes that incite disturbance, the appreciation in all that is 10 our credit, while Europe Is embroiled in a war that may cover its whole lace and last liar years, and that cannot fail to achieve the utmost destruction to business for the time, and render Intime peace more doubtfu'.—it is imperative thud we should believe that very many contemplating these facts will accord noire to our credit than European financiers will like." • is pitiable to witness how the work or years may be destroyed in a day. For a (... code or more, Napoleon lots been engaged in adorning and embelishing Paris and its so. Mutts. The cost has been immense, and tl.e result has been the creation or army unrivaled in its attraellllllS. lint in an evil moment the hand that had directed these peaceful enter prises was lined menttneingly over Europe, anti note with the enemy he provoked to.con- Mot, hewing their way to Paris, all this work of years is to be destroyed in preparations for defense. The entire region In sight of Paris, says M. Tillers, must be laid in waste in order to make its safety more secure. Columns of arches, gardens, parks, everything, must be demolished and blotted out, and the whole population summoned to the walls to defend what is left of the Government and , order. And if alien the mob should get the upper hand, what would become of Paris and - of Prance ? The proceeds of the fair held in Philadelphia ast year for the endowment of the Homeopathic 110 9dtal, netting some $20,000, are now being ap plied. The trustees of the Hospital have pur chased the old college property on Filbeit and Cuthbert sts., above Eleventh at. ; they have torn away the small buildings lu the rear, and have entered Into a contract to erect a building thereon suitable fot hospital purposes. It Is to be sup- Idled with every deportment necessary to such an establishment. A noticeable improvement will be an elevator to move patients front floor to floor with case and comfort. The Hahnemann Medi cal College have leased the old college building on Filbert street for educational purposes, and tints the Hospital will be under the Immediate su pervision of the college faculty. The clinical lee. tures will be delivered In the hospital lecture room. This gives to Philadelphia the completest institution for the promulgation of the doctrines of linhneman In America. TIM LEFfIGH REGISTER, ALLEN [TOWN, WEDNESDA A DAY AMONG THE QUAKERS Along a portion of Lake Brie's southern shore, where an enchanting variety of cedar groves, rocky bluffs, a shell:dotted beach, and houses rich in architectural beauty offer a long succession of enjoyment to both the heart and eyes of a tourist, there rises above all else a land light-house, founded upon a rock and built of purest granite. Near by, it looks a tower of strength; afar off; it seems like a Lug bite finger pointing upward ; yet, near or fitY, It stands out from amidst all surround ings with a distinctness, or an individuality, that makes it a nucleus around Which all other associations of the shore scenery gather. The following, in bold relief, front the adventures of a few weeks' summer wandering, is a sin gle episode, whose delude I give 'with careful truthfulness: The time was July, 1868; the day, a Sab bath ; and the place, an out-of-the-way settle nient in Central Ohio. Grace Newton, whom Huth Clifford and I were visiting, had told us of a little colony of Quakers, not very far off—anti-progressive ones—who held on tenaciously to the faith of their fathers, and had no companionship with the villagers who worshiped once a month in the Methodist Chapel, " down the road ;" and when she proposed to have Dick harnessed in the spring wagon, and drive us to Oalthill Meeting-house, four miles distant, we offered no opposition. The wagon had no top. The sun's rays were almost scorching. A portable seat, In the middle of the wagon, accommo dated Huth and me, under shelter of an urn brella, while'Gruce, in her character of Jelin, occupied a low-backed chalLirrfront. That ride was guiltless of any monotony. Bouncing, jolting, halt' shaken to pieces, now down in a rut, then heaved over a stump, now plashing through a stream which ran across the road, then rolling through a foot in depth. of soft clay, down a steep hill, with a cry from Grace, " Hold my chair, girls, or I'll slide out 1" Thence up one, with another call, " Push me front, girls, or I'll slide back !" And every few minutes, as the low-hanging tree bongos brushed Against its, dodging our. heads to escape the fate of Absalom, we might Well be thankful When, the last long graveled hill was out:ended, and the low, weather beaten, board meeting-house stood before us. Its surroundings reminded me of a Southern camp-meeting ; for every tree near by steel tered a carriage of soot kind, while n corral rut horses switched off tiles in a long shed, built for their accommodation. '• How long has meeting set, boys ?" asked Grace of two little urchins, who were slyly creeping around a rock with their Sunday hats full of dead-ripe blackberries. " Jes half 'n hour," said one. "'then we will disturb the preacher," said Ruth. " Blissful ignorance !" exclaimed Grace. "It is easy to see you were 'never in a Quaker meeting. Follow me, doing just as I do." The interior of the building was separated in half by a partition containing numerous holes n foot square, which divided the sexes. The pews were elevated like those in a theatre, the very young people being packed near the ceiling, and the elders occupying those near. est the floor. It may seem strange that Huth and I had never seen Quakers worship : but this was really our first opportunity ; nor had we any but the crudest idea of their formula. Nothing human could have looked more sane tinionious than the brethren and sisters, each with folded hands and downcast eyes, as they sat in is silence so profound I grew nervous with hearing toy awn heart, beat. "For Want are they waiting, Grace? I can not endure this another quarter of an hour," I said. "Oh, do he still!" she replied, in the faint est of whispers. "They are waiting MI the Spirit; it will soon move sm o te one, I hope." Waiting on the Spirit I Wh`y, its presence was visible to me wherever I Idoked through the opened door. A voice from out the ripen ing grain seemed crying. "Lm! 'tk here." The tints that soared toward the tun half warbled, "There, up there. The soft wind caught the sweet refrain, and murmured, '• li•very where." Only 1111111 was silent. The church took its name from a gigantic oak which stood just in front of the door, stretching out its "hundred arms so strong" so near at some points that the lea Yes lay against the whitewashed boards. Its trunk was hollow, and an old ram, panting from the excessive heat, hail thrust his head and should ers in it for relief . in the cool darkness. I studied the hind-quarters of this venerable mutton until I had counted every knot upon its woolly back - , then, by way of diversion, again sought the faces of the elderly sisterhood. Than some few, nothitig in the ripe 'windily of modest womanhood was lovelier. With downcast eyes, hands quietly folded in their laps, and scarcely any perceptible heavings or the motherly bosoms beneath their spotlessly white neckerchiefs, they looked, each one, an impersonation of that peace which "passel') undersuunling ;" but statues werkvareely quieter. Presently I espied a middle-aged BUM, whose broad brim covered his eyebrows, move his hands once or twice, as though wash ing them in an invisible basin ; then he crossed Mid recrossed his feet, sighed heavily three 'times with inspiration deep enough to fill the lungs of a blacksmith's bellows, finally , ruse, opened his mouth, and spoke. Writ 'en words can not describe his nasal intonations, nor the peculiar inflections of his unpleasant voice. His theme wits the uselessness of mere learn ing as a means of spiritual advancement—and his (louse of the rules of rhetoric and grammar the strongest argument in proof of the sincerity (a his belief.

Whose voice would be next to arouse the attention of that waiting and undemonstrative audience fi The question was answered by the old ram, who, walking straight op to the front door, put his head in it, made a brief but de liberate survey of the congregation, and then, uttering a loud, prolonged Int•ii, returned to the shelter ofhe oak, Oh, the laughs that 1 were choked l' ck, and the rosy lips that were bitten into a deeper carmine the few next low minutes ! But the elder who had spoken suddenly en d the restraint by shaking bands with the neighbor next him which was the signal for the universal hand slinking that closes every meeting. It may have been an outside show—l know not ? but the show, as such, was the most suggestive of that Chris• tian lellowship which should unite those who cherish the same hulk I ever saw. "flow is thee, Grace Norton 'P' The voice was that of the elder who had spoken in the meeting. lam well. This is my friend Ruth Clif ford, Nathaniel Grubb, of whose coining I told thee. how is Aunt livlsey ?" "Elie took cold 1114., Lord's day when. it rained on us. It this was not another Lord's day, 1 would like to tell thee what she says about that honey thee is wanting to buy. Thee can have six pounds of it nt forty cents a Mann', and that is dead cheap." " Ah, Friend Grubb !" I thought, "ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law." I turned to watch the approach of a fair old lady in ii drab silk bonnet and spectacles, who was nettling us with a Mee radiant in kindness. Ruth, who also saw her, with her usual im pulsiveness, sprang forward and grasped her extended hand. "Arc. you not Aunt Phoebe Haddam ?" she said. "You must excuse my boldness, but my friend Grace Norton has written to me so often of your kindness to her, when she was sick and a stranger, I felt I would know you if 1 ever saw your face." " Thee is right. That is my name, but thee overrates a simple act of duty, my child." They were acquainted already, which re sulted in an invitation to us three to come home tool dine with her,atlding, "I know fa ther will be glad to converse with thee." Grace and Huth eagerly accepted it, allow- lug me at my request, to return to Snowden with a Quaker family and be entertained by little Gay, the daughter of Grace. What Ruth saw and heard, and what I missed in not sharing her eventful visit, I will tell as it was told to 'um Grace and she fol lowed in the spring wagon close behind the baroucho which contained Aunt Phoebe, her daughter Rebecca, and eon Simon, who was driving The distance was two miles, through a long strip of woodland and most delicious shade. " These Iladdams are the most interesting Quakers I know," said Grace ; " but the folks around here think Untie Samuel, the husband, a little queer, and not quite sound of - mind. He rarely goes from home now: having a die, case in his • eyes which makes him almost blind—but you must not allow me to preju dice you against him, for his character Is irre proachable. Indeed, I know very little of him hut from hearsay." This explanation, kindly as it was given, dampened Ruth's ardor, and' made her rather shrink from the visit so near. They entered a lane, and soon reined up before a small white cottage, whose yard was encircled by a thick hedge of Osage orange. Not another house was any where visible. The spot could scarcely have been more, Isolated had It been In the cenVe of the Great Sahara, but there the resemblance ended,for whatever of beauty there is In undulating hills covered with ver dure, patches of woods, running water, and browsing line, were there in profusion. " Don't wait here In the sun, Ruth ; just follow the path to the house," said Aunt Phoebe. Grace stopped to help Simm tic up "01.1 Dick," nod Ruth walked on up m avenue of blooming hollyhocks to where a door stood wide open. How white was the sanded and how neat the home-made rag which lay just nt the entrance! Seeing no one, she stepped in, when suddenly from an arm-chair there arose n tall, slender old awn, NOM con fronted her. Ills appearance was remarkable. Ills dress was of tine linen, without spot or color, except that of the narrow black ribbon knotted under his broad, unstarched shirt collar. ills thin hair was white and tine as spun glass, and his face—the skin of which was fair as a girl's—of moss benignant and in tellectual expression. Ills eyes alone were -not visible, being protected by large green goggles. Ruth stood an instant motionless. Such n vision of majestic old age, in such a place, sbe had never dreamed of seeing. "Thy footsteps are those of a stranger. En ter. Thou art welcome," was his salutation. Ruth advanced, laying her hand in his large, soft palm, with a few simple words of greeting. Thy hand IS that of n gentlewoman, and thy voice is low and pleasant. Who art thou?" stud he. ".fly name is Ruth Clifford. I have come front the capital of Pennsylvania to visit my friend Grace Norton. I accompanied her to meeting this morning, and was invited home to dinner by Aunt Nitrite Haddam." "Thou Last come, then, from the great world of which I know so nttle. God—ever blessed be Ills holy name—has seen fit to take away my sight ; but I have witnessed the coin ing of the Lord, and mine eyes have seen the salvation or Ills people, so I ant content," and clasping his hands, his lips moved as if in prayer. Ruth's emotions were those or awe, rever ence, and admiration coin mingled. She re called Grace's language, that Uncle Samuel— r of course this was he—was "a little queer," and wondered whether he might not only he that, to some minds, incomprehensible thing —a religious enthusiast. Ills articulation was very distinct, every word having a purity of linish which would have been marked in the diction or n professed elocutionist. How much more astonishing, then, from the lips of this unassuming, humble quaker farmer, It ho had doubtless never been beyond the limits of his native State. Before ha again spoke, his with her daughter and Grace, Caine "Now, dear, thee must feel at home," said Aunt Pioche, taking Ruth's hat. "We nro plain people ; but thee and Grace au truly welcome. has thee felt lonely this morning, father ?" she asked, positing aside a stray lock of his silvery hair with which a bre , ze was toying. " Did thy poor eyes pan thee much ?" Ills smile was perfect, as he replied : "Oh no, mother ; I forgot my Cps. Ills words came to me very clear : For our light ithliction, which is but for a moment,,,worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight Of glory ; while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are t. moSeen ; for the things which - are seen are temporal ; but the things which are not seen 'eternal.' I thank thee for bringing the young woman home. I will enjoy h e r speech." "I am the one to feel gratefol, Sir. May I call vim Uncle Samuel ?'' • ' , Yes, if it pleaseth thee." " Well, Code Samuel, 1 have traveled over several thousand miles since I lilt !ionic, but never behire got into a place like this. Every 'thing charms me, and 1 am glad or the privi lege to just sit still and hear you talk." Hush, hush ! Thou must not flatter ?" Yet the old titan's tones expressed pleasure withal, for Ruth's were full of earnestness. Aunt Plnebe's kind heart was gratified. '• 1 see thee camentertain each other," she said, ." so 1 will get the dinner." . Rebekah and Grace went to assist her,. and Ruth and the old man-were left alone: lle broke the silence first, saving: "blast thou seen Gem ral Grant, and dolt thou think him a good nom ? I have longed to hear his voice, and daily pray to God that he will strengthen his hands, and make him Worthy of the great work to which he is called." works, but felt that he, perhaps more• than any living American, would perfect the grand schemes left unfinished by the death , of Lin. coin. At that name the old man's face lighted up with a beauty almost angelic. Turning to• ward Ruth, swim sat near hie chair, and laying Ilia hand lightly on hers, he said, eagerly : " Bast thou seen Mr. Lincoln'?" "Yes; Sir," replied Ruth. "Once, when living, 1 stood so near hint that every line or his face was as visible to me as yours now. It was the last time it ever addressed an au• dience us Abraham Lincoln, the citizen ; for a few days afterward lie was inaugurated President oh these Unit. d States. Once again I stood very near [dill but it was to look upon his coinned form lying in mate in our Capitol. Did you ever sec hint ?" "Alt ! yes, yes ; and 'a sadder fitee than his was Men 1 never looked upon." Ituth's.tiwe was luminous with curiosity. " Why, Uncle Samuel ! Where was he'' What were the circumstances? Do tell Ole?" " Perhaps thou wilt not sympathize with me. I rarely speak of these things snix among my own people. In what light dust thou view the col o red race'!" Now the treeing of the slaves and the edu cation of the freed:nen had long been among Ruth's hobbies; so when called upon to " re. hearse the articles of her belief," she did it so promptly and lincibly that no one could d o ubt to her philanthropy nor ardent do sire fir jos. lice to that long•solfcring and terrioly wrong ed people. . . Uncle i'ainuel was now in his element. Cut off by old age, blindness, 11111 his Isolated home front the busy only (Maks of the mighty questions which were agitating the 'greatest minds of our country had reached him ; and to have unexpeetedlya communion, young, full of ardor and enthusiasm, dropping down, as it were, upon his very hearth-stone, was a pleasure such us rarely oceurud in his quiet lire. " Now tell me, Uncle Samuel. When,and where did you meet Mr. Lincoln r' "I scarcely ever speak °fit now, my child," he said, foldaug his hands, his thin face buccal)• lug sweetly grave and his words falling yery slowly. "My quiet life has known few storms. I have loved God as my first, best, and dearest friend, and he has ever dealt most tenderly with Ole. I always abhorred slavery. Dur ing the first years of the great rebellion, when I read and heard what was the condition of the poor and enslaved negroes,• 1 tried to think it was a cunning device of bad men to create greater enmity between the North and .South.; but when I read Mr. Lincoln's speeches I thought so good a man as I believed him to be could not lie, and then I resolved to go and see for myself. At one of our Pirst• I day meetings I spoke my intention to the brethren, butt although feeling us 1.• did Mum the subject, they said it was rash for me to ex pose my life, for 1 could do 11,, good by such means. Nevertheless I went, traveling on horseback through most of the Southern. States. My life was often in great danger, but there was all invisible-arm ever between ' me and the actual foe, and alter some weeks I returned,, saying the had not been told me of the sufferings of those poor, poor, despised, yet God.lrusting and God fearing, people." Here his voice expressed a fulness of pity which could come iron) 00 'source but the depths of at loving but large heart. ''flat summer (it was in '62) I plowed and reaped and gathered in toy little harvest as usual. Duty by day I prayed at home and in the field that God would allow his ddiviaing power as he had to the children of Israel ; butt nothing seemed to come in answer. "Now and then, during the beginning of the war, news reached us of a Lattle having been fought by our men, and a victory gained, but still the poor colored people were not . let go. Then one night I had a singular dream, and I said, Yea, Lard I thy servant beareth.' 1 soon made ready and said to mother: " ' Wilt thou go with me to Washington to see the President " ' Where thou guest, I will go,' she nn swered. "My good friends called me insane. Some said this trip was even more foolish than the lust ; that 1 huew no One in Washington, and would never gain access to the great President. " The good Lord knew I did not mean to be fool-hardy, but 1 had that on my mind which I ryas to tell him, and I had With to believe that Ile who feeds the sparrows would watch over me. " Art thou tired, child "No, no, Sir. Please go on." " We lett hero hit a pleasant September morning—the first time that mother had been from home thirty miles in tiny years, and now hundreds lay before us. Before we went out of the door we prayed that Cod would guide dur wanderings, or, if Ile saw best, direct us back again. Every one looked at and spoke to.us kindly on our journey front near Chit:ln nen to Harrisburg, and, when we got out there to chhnge cars and rest a while, we felt thht no fur the Lord had prospered us. It was remarkable that a man who was at the depot (and a pleasant manner he had, too) said " Friend, do you stop here T' " / answered, 'Yes. We arc weary, and will rest to-night.' " 'Come home with me, then,' ho said. 'My wife was born a Quaker, and will be glad to entertain pot.' "We went. llis home was beautiful. The Lord had abundantly blessed hint, and that night I was calm and happy. Me got in Washington the next evening. It was early candle-light, and there was soniuchCoilinsion mother clung to my arm, "' Oh, Samuel, we ought not to have conic here. It is like Babel.' " ' Have faith, mother,' I said. The Lord will send help if we are doing right ;' and we walked away front the cat's. " Under a gas posta man was standing, reading a Slllllll letter. I stepped before him and said : " Good friend, wilt thou tell us where to find President Lincoln ?' " lie looked us all over before he - Spoke. We were neat and clean. Soon his thee got bright and smiling, and lie asked us tt few plain questions. 1 told him we were Friends from Ohio, who hail come all these miles to sny n few words to Mr. Lincoln. I " Ile bade us come with him, and, taking us to a grout house called Willtird's Ihotel, put its in it little room away off from the noise. " Stay here,' said he, ' and I will see When the President can admit you.' " lie staid a lung time. Meanwhile a young 11111.11 brought its a nice supper, which was very kind and thoughtful in him, and when the gentleman came back he handed me a slip paper which read : Admit the bearer to the chamber of the President at nine o'clock to. morrow- morning.' • "My heat t trims so full of gratitude I could not speak my thunkfulness. 'flint night was as peaceful its those in our little h o me in the meadow. " The next morning the kind gentleman came and conducted us to the house in which the President was.

See' these anxious tacos who came before us.' . . "As God wills,' said I. "it wits a sad place we were in. There were soldiers' wives and mothers sitting about, and not a soul front which joy and pleasure did not seem to have lied. Some were even weep ing, and I thought what a fearfully solemn thing it was to hold much power. They found in some way that I would soon see the President; then how they begged me to inter- • cede for them with him. One poor mother whose' only boy was dying with home-sick ness—" here Uncle Samuel's voice got husky with the sad memory, and tears fell from his sightless eyes upon his withered hands. Ruth reverently brushed them oil; and in a • few minutes lie proceeded : " When the summons came for us to enter (it wits in advance °Rim rest) toy knees smote together, and for an Instant I tottered.

" It seemed so wonderful ; for a minute I conld not realize that such humble people as we were should be therein the actual presence of the greatest limn in the world. Then he re ceived us so kindly.

"The dear, dear I 111111,” illitl again Uncle Samuel stopped, as Uloll'4ll to revel in the memory of that interview. " What then Sir ?" Ruth tuns impatient. The answer came with a solemnity inde scribable. " Of' that hatrhnur's eonnerlation it does not become me to speak. I will think or it theongh eternity. At lust we had to go. Ile tools a hand of each of us in his, lied said, looking straight in (am ryes, Father, mother, I thank you for this visit ; God bless you " Was there ever greater condescension than that At the last moment 1 asked hint if he would object to just writing a line, cer tifying that we had fulfilled our mission,so we ' could show it in council.' Ile sat down at his table—Wilt thou (men the upper drawer of that old secretary and hand me a little tin box ' therein''?" Ruth obeyed, placing in his now trembling lingers it small sqintre 'lox, bright its silver. Taking from it a folded paper he bade Ruth ' read. The words were literally as follows • " I take pleasure in aserting that I has, 1,“,c and profitable ilitereourse Willi Friend &outlet Ilmithl,lllllilld his wife, Phoebe Haddam.

"I . can scarcely realize it, that I should, away out here in this edmost backwoods, rend words traced by our beloved Mr. Lincoln's own Minds.

" Bid you learn his name, sir 3" I " Ile is high in the estimation of men, and his name is Salmon P. Chase." The dinner in that peaceful 'Quaker house was like all else about it—real 11111! informal. Simon proved hints* worthy of his nob' , pa• tentage, and Rebecca, Who was engaged in leaching at Freedman's school, some tulles from home, was as companionable as earnest in her philanthropic work. Uncle Samuel was lumpy. lie had revived once noire the event of his life, and electric currents of an awakened_ vitality were flashing through his sluggish veins. lie sought to amuse limit by having Simon open a cupboard and place in her hands, one by one, curious fossils, shells, minerals, and other articles of vertu, the glean ings or his leisure hours. • Jlis knowledge of geology was astonishing, and in each mine ral he read a record of -God's unerring wis. dom. But evening was approaching, and old Dick.having been' reharnessed, the parting from so much that was endearing had to Wine. Ruth felt it was no mere Intuit-shake of cour tesy which grasped her so firmly, when Aunt Phoebe, in her motherly way, thanked her for the pleasure their visit had afforded them. The last " good-bye" was for Uncle Samuel. As Ruth approached the venerable saint he arose. " My child ! I thank thee Mr thy sympathy which will ever be to me a sweet memory. We will not meet again here ; I am very near 'mine, and oily wait my Fsther's summons. Live near to Christ. There alone is the Way, the Truth, and the LIM." Then laying his hand upon her head, In c added : "The Lord bless thee and , keep thee ; The Lord make Ilis face to shine upon thee and he gracious to thee ; The Lord hlt up Ills countenance upon thee and give thee peace forever. Amen." And stopping, he kissed her forehead. "I can not possibly describe to you the grand simplicity of that pure old man," added Ruth, when her recital was ended. " I have (tinned our conversation, word for word : but could no more give you his pathetic tones than I could arrange in bars and notes the song of a lark. God alone knows to what ex tent Mr. Lincoln was influenced by that half hour's conversation to the performance or that great deed which set a nation free : but I can not help feeling I have read a page in that wonderful man's history which would have been sealed to me but for my unexpected meeting with that precious old Quaker." I AN Instance of the Prussian Crown Prince's I solicitude for the wounded is stated. A coun try cart was running down the street in one of the frontier towns with two wounded offi cern (young men), on their way to the station. The Crown Prince, who was on foot, beck oned to the driver to stop, and went up to the cart, the occupants of which tried to salute him, but he made a gesture, and leaning over entered into conversation with them for ten minutes . , evidently asking after their N'olltltiN. On parting he shook each by the hand and continued his way up the street, accompanied by tiVo other officers.
