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

is pitiable to witness how the work or
years may be destroyed in a day. For a (...

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

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.

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.

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. How he sweated as his excite
ment increased ! lie sawed the air with
his long arms, and seesawed from heel-tip to

sisters—ah—Libor not Tor the meat which per

speaking—ah)—and then tnay be, like St. Paul
—ah—you'll be gifted with an un—n—n—n—
atural eloquence."
ouch wits the peroration of his half hour's
discourse, when he resumed his seat under a
Slielled NV Weil would have been most flattering
to the orator of any but a Quaker meeting.
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 ?''
•

" 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:

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•

a few days afterward lie was inaugurated

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

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

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

"' 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

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

kind and thoughtful in him, and when the
gentleman came back he handed me a slip

"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

seemed to know our new IrMinloind touched
their hats to him. .1 was glad so many people
seemed to like him. At the door lie left 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

found in some way that I would soon see the

with the sad memory, and tears fell from his
sightless eyes upon his withered hands.
Ruth reverently brushed them oil; and in a

" It seemed so wonderful ; for a minute I

" ' Certainly ; I understand about it.'
"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

table—Wilt thou (men the upper drawer of
that old secretary and hand me a little tin box

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

" Bid you learn his name, sir 3"
I " Ile is high in the estimation of men, and

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. Ile next met a cart fall
of wounded soldiers, talked to them each in
turn, and so went on , visiting the hospitals and
the wounded in the most unostentatious man-
