Dear Sir—l hove been a sufferer, for upward 01
to eniy years, with gravel, Winkler anti kidney

treatment of the most eminent Physicians, ex
periencing but little relief.
Slaving seen your preparations extemilvelV
advertised, I consulted with my latully physician
in regard to using your Exintet
I did this because I had. used all kinds of ml
vertlsed remedies, and had found t ben: worth
less, mid some quite Injurious; fact, I despair
ed of ever getting well, and detertnined to use
no remedies hereafter unless I knew of the in
itredients. It was this that prompted eta to use
your remedies. As you advertised that It was
composed of buchu, cubebs, anti Jur.t per berries,
It occurred to Meant' ray fami.vMyst tilt as an
exeellentcombinallomand with Ills ad vier, tiller
:in examination Of the article, and consulting
again with the druggist, I conelinled to try It. I
commenced its 1151, about eight months ago, nt
which time 1 was rat, fl e I to lay round. From
the first bottle 1 Was astonished and gratified at
ihe benefielal effect, and nfter using It for I brigd
weeks, wss able to wall( init. I felt much like
writing you n full statement of lay.case at that
lint,, hat thought toy Improvement might only
tie temporary, and therefore eoliellided to defer
:all see if It would effect a pernmnent cur,
lag then It would he of greater value to

"GOD WILL PROVIDE."
"Don't cry, Nellie," said a piping little
voice. " You know what mamma told us the
night she died. 'God will provide,' she said.
I ain't a bit hungry ; Indeed, indeed I ain't"
It was Saturday night—a wild, bitter winter
night. The wind rattled at the loose case
ment, and roared down the fireless chimney.
The two orphans had eaten nothing all day,
and there was not a cent in the house. From
earliest dawn, the eldest had been sewing at a
bit of p'ece-work for a clothing.stnre, In hopes
to complete it before night ; but now, when
dusk had come, and the task was still unfin
ished, her brave heart had given way, and
letting the waistcoat fall into her lap, she had
burst into despairing tears.
Nellie Thorndike and her little, six-year-old
sister, Anne, were the children of a clergy
man, who had worn himself out in the service
of his Master, in an obscure country district.
His wife had soon followed him to the grave,
broken hearted, leaving their orphan offspring
alone and Itentiless, in the great city to which
slit had come, in hopes to earn a living by
giving lessons in music. For awhile Nellie
had fought bravely to keep the wolf trout the
door: But as her needle was her only resource,
the battle bad gone steadily against her.
First, one comfort had to be given up, and
then another; no fire had been kept, though
winter had come ; very often the sisters had
gone supperless to bed. Today they had
eaten nothing. The last crust, the lust penny
were gone. No wonder Nellie had broken
down ! Even at seventeen, when hope is still
high, there can be such a thing as despair.
But she rallied at her little sister's words.
Hastily brushing the tears from her eyes, she
took the child in her arms and kissed her vs
hen iently.
"I know ! I know !" she said. " I have
been weak and wicked. Yes, darling ! God
will provide."
" And don't you remember," said Annie,
nestling to her sister's heart, "that verse in
the Bible, about never seeing the righteous
forsaken, or their seed begging bread? Mother
used to give it to me to learn by heart."
She was interrupted by a loud, imperative
knocking at the door.
Hark ! What was that ?" she cried, in a
frightened whisper.
Nellie started to her feet, but still held the
child. She was pale, and trembled, and had
‘%ild look, as of one hunted to death.
"It is the landlady," shi• said. " I prom
ised to pay the rent tonight ; and I had 1•or.
But I haven't a penny. What•shall we
it ? She will turn us out into the streets."
•' ! not tonight, not to-night I" cried
Anne, convulsively clutching her sister.
Jtist listen to the storm.'
The danger roused Nellie, as danger always
rouses the brave. Iler eyes kindled: ller
frail form seemed to grow taller.
" She won't dare to do it. She cannot be
se cruel," 'she said. Yet she hardly believed
her oWn words. "But I must go and open
MEMO
She put Anne down as Vie spoke. The
child followed, clinging to her skirts.
The knocking. by this time, had become (a
lma furious: . Nellie unbolted the door, and
stood there, with a fast-beating heart, but out
wardly calm. Brave, noble girl !
It was, as she had expected, the landlady.
But, to her surprise, no angry countenance
met Nellie's gaze. The new comer was in a
flurry of apparently pleasurable excitement.
"Oh, Miss I" she cried, raising her hands,
as if in admiration, " such a carriage as is at
the door—with a footman as well, Miss." She
spokein short, gasping sentences. evidently
out of breath with her haste. "They are ask
ing for you, Miss. Miss Nellie Thorndike
and her sister. There's such a grand old lady
in the carriage. With such beautiful white
hair. Such a dress !" And the hands went
up again. "They're coming up stairs them
selves to see you. I've Just run ahead----;"
At this point, the landlady's exclamations
were cut short by a tall footman, who uncere
moniously pushed her aside, joshing way for
the most wonderful vision, in the shape of an
old lady, that Nellie had ever conceived of,
much less beheld. So stately and grand, and
yet so sweet-looking withal, and dressed so
magnificently ! If she had been.,a fairy god

you never heard him talk of sister Anne ?

That night, as Anne nestled to her sister's
arms, after the orphans had gone to bed, in
the grand mansion to which their aunt carried
them, she whispered, " Wasn't I right, Nellie
dear? Didin't mother tell the truth? Yes I
God will provide."
And Nellie murmured, amid happy, thank
ful tears, clasping Anne closer to her heart,

THE S'I7EZ CANAL.—An English tourist,
who passed through this canal last September
in the British steamship Nestor, is confident
it must prove financially and commercially a
success. The minimum depth is now twenty•
two feet, except at one point where it is a foot
lea's. The Nestor drew nineteen and a half
feet of wuter,and in addition. to her own
steam power, was aided by a tug to keep her
head in proper course. But the greatest want
now felt Is increase , ' width of channel, so that
large vessels cau pass each other With ease.
At present vessels are compelled to wait nt
Ridings. This Improvement will be made,
thinks our tourist, in duo time ; for it Is evi
dent that the better portion of the trade be
tween Europe and the East, and also a poi.-
lion of the American trade, will pass through
the canal, The banks remain firm, and no
signs appear of the once-apprehended drift.
It Is stated as a curious fact that the "Bitter
Lakes" have now become a large sea, swarm
ing with fish. The place which centuries
past was but a mero depression In the desert.
now assumes what was doubtless Its earlier
condition. The Nestor passed through the
canal In fourteen hours, and at a cost of less
that £7OO. Ismalia, a city which has sprung
up on its banks, is said to excel already Alex
andria In attractiveness and convenience.

inn LATEST BOND ROBBERY AT
NEW YORK.
James F. Joy, of Detroit, Mich., now visit
ing this city, on Monday afternoon left the
°Dice of the Farmers' Loan and Trust Com
pany, bearing under his arm a bundle of fifty
$l,OOO bonds of the Chicago and lowa Rail
road Company, wrapped in brown paper. On
the paper, in large
,ollaracters, was inscribed
"50,000." John Price, a notor ous sneak
thief, standing listlessly 'on the edge of the
curb stone, started, upon seeing this inscrip
tion, and followed Mr. Joy into an omnibus.
Thirty minutes later Mr. Joy and his escort
alighted at the St. Nicholas Hotel, and the
former proceeded up stairs to Ills room, and,
placing the bonds upon the mantel piece, re-
Vint, d to the vestibule of the hotel, and en
ters 1 into conversation with the clerk.
Price, in the mean while, proceeded to the
corridor in which Mr: Joy's room is situated,
and called loudly for a chambermaid, who
ap
pcarcd. " See here, my dear girl," said Price,
" father sent me up for that bundle of his, and
I have lost my key ; won't you please open
the door ?" And Price pointed to the en
trance to Mr. Joy's room. " Certainly, Sir,"
said the girl, and Price walked in and looked
carefully around in search of the bonds.
While thus engaged, he was called to the door
by a knock, and, opening it, received a card
from a bellboy, whp said there was a gentle
man below..who desired to see Mr. Joy.
" Father is out at present ; tell the gentleman
to call again," replied Price, and the bell-boy
disappeared. A few moments later, 34 ; Joy
went up to his room, and was surprised to
find the door open. Upon entering, he pet
ceived that the bonds had disappeared, and,
suspecting robbery, gave the alarm at once,
but iu vain, No thief could be found within
the hotel limits.
Detective Keeley, attached to the hotel,
immediately set to work to capture the thief,
if possible, and, aided by a description given
by the chambermaid and bell-boy, early Wed
nesday morning, captured Price in a saloon
at the corner of Broadway and Nineteenth-st.,
the resort of desperate characters of all de
scriptions. The bonds were not recovered,
but are practically valueless to the thief; as
they cannot be negotiated without subjecting
the person offering them to almost certain ar
rest, the numbers of the bonds having been
advertised. Price was taken before Justice
Shandley,at the Jefferson Market Police Court
Wednesday afternoon, and committed for ex
amination.—Tribune.
The Late Massacre in China.
Rev. Mr. Baldiviii, for twelve years past a
missionary in China, gave an address at Bos•
ton on Thursday night, in which he gave an
account of the Methodist missionary work in
that country and of the causes which led to
the recent Chinese massacre of Europeans.
After describing some of the difficulties attend
ing the missionary work, he said there were
no converts during the first ten years, but
there are now nearly two thousand native
Christians, and among them are many minis.
tors and lay preachers, who sometimesendure
untold persecutions.
The Methodists have three principal mission
stations, the largest of them being at Foochow.
The missionaries in China look upon the
Burlingame mission iu a different light from
that in is hick it is viewed by most people iu
this country.
The mandarins wanted the treaty of 1860
to remain as it was, and not to be revised at
the end of ten years according to the agree.
meat ; and 'to accomplish this end their chief,
Mr. Hart, offered to Mr. Burlingame the mis
.sign to foreign nations, as no mandarin 01
the first class would accept it. lie was to
receive $4O 000. Ile was instructed to make
a new treaty, that should be ah nearly like
the old one as possible; but the Chinese were
astonished at the first reports of his speeches
that came to them, to the effect that China
%vistaed railroads, telegraphs and all modern
improvements, and offered to Americans the
inside track in their construction; whereas
such things were far from being the real
wishes of the mandarins of China, and the
treaty was found on comparison with the old
one to differ only in this, that when China
was ready to build railroads, America should
be allowed to furnish the engineers, etc., for
the work.
But the understanding the Americans had
from Mr, Burlingame's speeches and repre
.sentation led them and the English and
French afterwards to give directions in be
half or China, that no gunboats on the Chinese
coast should exact reparation for injuries on
the spot, but that such injuries should be re
ported to tho Minister in Pekin, and he in
turn should receive instructions from the
home government before notion should he
taken against China, excepting only cases
which involved the lives or fbreign citizens.
China construed these instructions, as in
dications of backing down on the part of the
treaty-making powers, instead of indications
of magnanimity, as they were intended. She
therefore very naturally concluded that, as ,
any injury they might do could not be. pun
ishedfor nearly a year. it was a most favor.
able opportunity to drive all foreigners out
of China. This is really the desire of all the
Chinese, as those on the spot cannot fail to
see. This was the real cause of the late ter
rible massacre there.
A THEATRICAL UNPLEASANTNESS AT Boa.
TON.—Fechter, the theatrical manager and
actor, now at Boston, has always been a
master hand to get into trouble, and a Boston
letter says he has already had a quarrel with .
Mr. Cheney, the owner of the Globe theatre.
The letter says: "Mr Cheney engaged Mrs.
Chanfrau as leading lady, while Fechter en.
gaged Miss Le Clercq to play opposites to
hint, and consequently both ladles claimed
the right to play Ophelia. Miss Le Clereq,
backed by Fechter, won the contest, and
Mrs. Chaufrau is doing nothing. Unfortun
ately, the last two weeks of " Monte Cristo"
hardly paid expenses—indeed some say
money was lost: Besides that the attendance
on the opening night of "Hamlet" was very
slim. So Mr. Cheney, who has to hand over
his money, is coming to believe that he has
got an elephant on his bands. Ile threatens,
1 understand, to turn Fechter out unless that
gentleman succeeds in drawing better houses.
Mr. Fecliter's engagement is, I believe, for
five years, at $BO,OOO a year, and I am greatly
mistaken II the gentleman consents easily to
surrendering such a salary." •
INTERESTING BOND CASE.
Nearly $200,000 worth of seven-thirty bonds,
presented by different New York bankers,
were redeemed at the New York Sub-Treasury
several months ago, which were subsequently,
upon inspection at Washington, discovered to
be counterfeit, and it is supposed that they
were printed from , a plate stolen from the
Treasury Department. The Government has
begun suits against the bankers for the recov
ery of the value of the bonds, and a test case
has been begun against the well known firm
of Jay Cooko LS: Co., who sold about $BO,OOO
worth of the bonds. One point will be,
whether, at the time of the sale of the bonds,
any agreement was made between tim bank
ers and the Government concerning the re
sponsibility, if any of the bonds should prove
to be irregular. The trial commenced at
New York last week, and will probably last
several days.
HENRY WARD BEECHER ON A 1
LOCOMOTIVE.
I think some of my pleasantest experiences
in life, in a common way, are likely to be on
locomotives. I bad the pleasure of riding on
one from Boston to Worcester, and on coming
up to Framingham I was reminded of a con
versation I once bad there. I was reminded
of 't by the man himself, tot- I had met him in
Boston. Several years ago as I was waiting
to go to Marlboro, a young man asked me if I
was Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, and if I had
any objection to riding on the machine. I
told hint none at all ; and lam) we had got
far he broke the 'matter to me, and told me
about his soul's salvation. He had been trot".
bled about it, and did not seem to get much
rest, and he wanted some instruction, some
consolation. So I rode along the fields and
along the villages with him preaching Christ.
After coming home I sent to him a number
of religious books and things. He was
soundly converted. lie went to the Sabbath
school, bel-ame the superintendent, and from
that day to this, he has been known as an ac
tive and witnessing Christian, letting his light
shine for the guidance and consolation of
other people. When I was in' the station
house at Boston, he came up to me—l remem-
bered him—and we had some very pleas
ant conversation. My good brother, I felt
a kinship with him. I went forward to
see the engine, as I usually do—to see where
it was built, and what sort of an engine it
was—for I always enjoy eating an apple the
more when 1 know what the name of it is—l
went forward, and there stood Hobart, the
engineer. 'I knew him of old ; a fine florid•
faced man ; a man you would not like to run
against, though one you would like to . lean
against. "Come up here," he said. I went
up, and had not long sat down before he
broke out and told me what the Lord had
done for his soul. And he mentioned a very
interesting fact. He said that there was a
time when there was not a man he knew of
on that road—the operative corps on the
road—that professed the faith of Christ.
"Now," says lie, "we have fifty that are
professing Christians ; men who don't drink ;
that do love God and possess the faith of our
Lord Jesus Christ—and more coming too."
Ana lie told me how it was done. Little by
little. " The man Who won't rend a chapter
at first will read a verse, and so they get
along step by step. We get him to leave oft
tobacco, then something else ; and when he
gets on going,then we push him." He showed,
in short, good mother wit and that he knew
how to work for men ; lie had studied the best
Pay to get at them, and how to bring them to
Christ. And I went along with hi•n to Wor
center; and talked with him on the way. It
was a good meeting for my soul.
The Fashionable Clergymen of New
York and Their Pay.
In the Episcopal order there are Vinton anal
Dix in the high church, with the Tyngs, both
father and son, in the low church. In the
Presbyterian we have Adams of Madison
square and Hall of Fifth avenue. In the
Reformed Dutch branch there are Ormiston,
a new coiner, and Dewitt, who is now just
entering the retired list. The Baptist can
boast the learned Williams, the heavy-toned
Armitage, and the noisy Wescott, while the
Methodists have Smith, Newman, Harrower,
and a score or other acceptable divines. Out
or all this number, Beecher being a Brooklyn
man, there are but three men of first class
talents. These are Dewitt, who, as I have
said, is just about retiring, Tying senior, who
Is also nearly worn out, and Hall, of the Fifth
avenue. The latter, bring not much over
forty, may be expected to yield considerable
service; and is Is all respects the most able
and most popular preacher in this city. There
are a largo number of useftil and worthy cler
gymen here, but wl.ll all their excellence they
have not reached distinction. It is, perhaps.
much to their advantage that they have no';
for an excess of reputation is one of a profes
sional man's greatest mishaps. Hall receives
about $lO,OOO, not all salary, but perquisites
and donations will reach this figure. His sn -
airy is marked by a distinction peculiar to his
own ease, being payable in gold. , This arose
from his being called from Dublin, where all
currency Is on a gold basis, and also because
lie cause at a time when our paper money was
fluctuating in no small degree. In order there
fore, to place his call on a solid basis, it was
made payable in gold. Dr. Tyng's office is
worth $7OOO per annum mid a cam brad) e
rectory. Dr. Potter of Grace church cakes in
not less than $lO,OOO. beside the Use of the
ta at rectory in New York. Dr. A. ems,bein
very rich, is not so well paid, his berth being
not .worth more than $OOOO ; and Howard
Crosby, who is also rich, is paid in a manner
equally poor.• Dr. Dewitt and Dr. Ormiston,
of the Dutch body, get $7BOO. Dr. Dix of
'trinity gets $lO,OOO, and Vinton, his right
hand man, must receive nearly as much. As
Trinity has an estate worth twenty ruilions,
her clergy ought not to go hungry. From
the rates above mentioned, clerical pay de.
clines to the pittance received by the city mis
sionaries, which is about $BOO per annum.
These men, instead of enjoying a parsonage
of palatial extent, are glad to have a pair of
apartments in a tenement house, and Instead
of being invited to splendid weddings and
similar entertainments, they are called to min.
gle with the poorest and most degraded of
society. Our clergy have very handsome
perquisities for uniting the young and happy
cuuplts who abound In our rich congregations.
It must be understood that the prestige of high
clerical position adds much to the Mat of a
marriage/de. As a matter of course, there
Is a great impropriety in demanding the time
of a distinguished minister without a fitting
compensation. Such men as , Tyng and
B. colter are not to be put off, like a country
dominle,with a five dollar bill. Any one who
is ambitious of advertising his marriage by
such pompous officials should touch a $5O note
at least, and I presume that from $lOO to $5OO
are the figures moat in vogue, but double the
last has been fingered on such an occasion by
the happy divine.. In addition to these fees,
our populer clergynen are often the recipients
of handsome presents. If any wealthy mem
ber of the society desires to distinguitth him
self among them, let him make the pastor a
New York present of $lOO or $5OOO, or let
him send the honored divine a fine piano. It
will soon be noised abroad with the most flat
tering comments, and the next time the donor
appears in church he will observe that the eye
of the public is directed toward him in a very
attacked and gratifying manner.—Nero York
Letter.

BENEVOLENT SCREISE.—In Tennessee the
Masonic fraternity have projected a novel plan
for taking care of the widows and'orphans of
deceased brothers of the ..mystic tie." In
each grand division of the State a thousand
or more acres of land are to be acquired by
gift or purchase, and this land will bo . cut up
• Into small lots of one or two acres, with a
small cottage on each lot. A portion of the
land will be reserved for a school house and
church, thus making the locality a sort of
community by itself. In most cases there
I'l.lll be children old enough to care for the
land, raising vegetables and fruits for the
market ; and any deficiency of food and rai-
ment will be supplied from the benevolent
fund of the grand division. The soventy.two
Masonic lodges of the State have already
raised nearly eighty thousand dollars toward
the object to be accomplished, and by another
year will have raised the amount desired, be-
fore making a practical test of the project.
PLOD AND PLUM—Henry Ward Beecher
spoke the other day at the commencement ex
ercises of a business college in New York.
We quote a passage on pluck and plod : "I do
not believe a business man who says that he
has asked for employmen> and cannot get It.
I. know many out of employment, brit 'they
are drones; they are not business men of the
world. A. business man may lack a good
many things, but he will get on if he has pluck.
There is no business man who has not pluck,
and there is another word, which Is the greht
estbilsiness word in the world—l name ft in
its homeliness, and it is an old Saxon word—it
is cal.ed plod. 'Oh,' says somebody, 'he's
only a plodder'! Ah I there never was man,the
most brilliant genius in the world, who did
not owe his success to this process of being a
plodder. It Is very well for genius to conse
crate and light the path of life, but it must be
pluck and plod that carries a man over the
paths of life. I would have these words in
scribed over the walls, the pluck of life, the
plod of life."
