We can all of us see how many things might

I been so eventless thee there can not be drawn
from it some lesson of either warning or en•
conragement for the years to come. The way
over which we have walked for the last twelve
months may seem now to be lined huh mis
takes and errors, but it must be remembered
that It was an untried way to us, and if we
acted honestly and thoughtfully as we passed
along we need not burden ourselves now with
regrets over what was not accomplished or what
was poorly done. The Great Master knows•
our imperfections—no one knows them so
well as He—and He does not expect perfect
lives from His imperfect children.' It is the
1 motives with which we do our work, rather
I than the work which we accomplish, which
Ile considers,and if we have labored earnestly,
heartily and faithfully, trying to do ails will
and humbly trying to. follow His guiding
hand, the year has been a glorious success to
us, even though it seems to us barren of re
sults, and our day books and ledgers give but
a beggarly record. We cannot retrace the
path we have trodden during 1870, but
, we can profit from its experiences in 1871 ; and
our lives serve us but a poor purpose If we do
not gather from the sw iftly passing years some
lessons of hope and strength for the years to
come. It is no light thing to step out Into n
New Year, and as the Old Year dies and its
successor takes the vacant place,let us try and
make our lir,as purer, our hopes brighter, and
our faith stronger.; for thus shall the New
Year be a happy one to us, and It will pass
along laden with the greatest pleasure—that
of doing good to ourselves and to the world
in which we are placed.
THE PHILADELPHIA FIRE DE
PARTMENT.
The bill for the establishment of a Paid Fire
Department in Philadelphia was signed by
Mayor Fox on Thursday, and will go into
effect nt once. The bill provides for an Exec
utive Board of seven Fire Commissioners,
three of them to be elected by the Select
Council and four by the Common Council,
who are to serve without salary for a term Of
four years. The Chief Engineer is to have
$2500 salary per year, and he Is to have five
: assistants at $l2OO and , a messenger at $BOO.
Twenty-two stentn fire engines and five hook •
and ladder companies are to be employed,
and to manage this apparatus there will be
twenty-two enginemen at $lOOO each, twen•
ty-two firemen at $BOO each, twenty-seven
drivers at $750 each, twenty-seven firemen
at $450 each, five tillermen at $750 each, and
two hundred and twenty-six hose and laddek
men at $360 each. The whole expense for
salaries will be $167,610, and the other ex
penses will probably be as much more. The
sum of $40040 has been appropriated for
the expense of 1871. The old volunteer sys
tem is estimated to have cost the city about
$1,000,000 annually In all, and 'the Philadel
phians are greatly pleased at the change.
Philadelphia has been unfortunate In her vol
unteer firemen, for they have been rather to
be dreaded and feared than confided in as
guardians of the property N the city. Mayor
Fox stated in n speech on Thursday that while
hp was deliberating in regard to the expedi
"ncy of signing the bill, he was waited uphn
by a gentleman who said to him : "For God's
sake, Mr. Mayor, sign that Utlt. I! have a ebn
in the Eastern Penitentiary who owes his ram
to the demoralizing influences of the volun—
teer fire department." The Mayor was
strongly inclined to veto the bill at first, but
lie said that this appeal led him to consider
the matter more carefully, and In the end to
give It his approval. Quite an effort has been
made to persuade the Mayor that a proper re
gard to the Interests of hie party required him
to veto the measure ; but the Mayor has very
wisely concluded that he is Mayor of the
whole city of Philadelphia, and not of the.
Democratic party in that city, and that there
fore it was not best to disregard the best Inter•
este of his constituents as a whole.
Tun stockholders of the Home Insurance
Company at Niw Haven, Conn., have dis
covered some rather startling facts. The
stock has been nominally $1,000,000, but it
has never been over $100,000; the Company
has reported funds which It never possessed,
and the present indebtedness of the Company
is $200,000 above the assets. The agents
have all been notified tojoop 'lssuing policies,
and a eoennnttee has ?teen appointed to make
investigation. In the great competition
which has arisen during the past few years
among Insurance Companies and Insurance
Agents,there have been great temptations to
overstep the bounds of prudence and safety in
the transaction of business, and in many cases
the real object of insurance has been lost sight
of. It used to be jokingly said of one of the

TARIFF CHANGES
The new tariff which went into effect on the
first of January makes some important chan
ges in the reventie duties, and Secretary Bout
well line issued Inatructians to the Collec
tors of Customs in regard to carrying into ef
fect these changes. Fifty-two arlicies,mostly
drugs, are placed upon the free list, and the
duties upon nearly an equal number are re
duced. Among the more important reduc
tions are the following : the duty on tea Is
reduced from twenty-five cents per pound to
fifteen ; on coffee, from five to three cents per
pound ; on new sugar, from three and one-half
cents to one dnd three-fourths ; sugar above
i No. 7, from four to two cents ; refined sugar,
from- five to four cents ; cane molasses
1 from eight to five cents per gallon ;
brandy, from three dollars to two dollars
I per gallon ; liquors, from two dollars and a
half per gallon to two per proof gallon ;
wool, from thirty cents per pound to ten and
eleven cents; steel railway bars, from two
and a half cents per pound and ten per cent.
to one and one fourth cents per pound i pig

the editors of the Hartford Connecticut, Cbur•

information about gardening, but every person
who has ever worked ire a garden will sympai

Whoso bath eyes to see may see
The tokens of Its unity.
No scroll of creed Its fulness wraps,
We trace it not by school troy maps,
Free as the sun and air it Is
Of latitudes and boundaries.
In Vedic verse, in dull Koran,
Are messages of good to man ;
The angels to our Aryan ekes
Talked by the earliest household tires ;
The prophets of the elder day,
The slant•eyed sages of Cathay,
Head not the riddle all amiss
Of higher life evolved from this."

BLOWING COTTON.—This amusement
Is 'a sitting-room game of the Jolliest sort.
Let as many as may be sit around a table; sith
hands folded and arms extended along the edge of
the table, each person tonehleg elbows with his
neighbor on each side of him. Take 'a small piece
of common cotton batting, picked up so as to be
made as light and airy as possible. Put this In
the centre of the table. Let some one count "one,
two, three," and then let each Apo Plow his best
.to keep the.cotton away framthnself rind drive It
upon some one else. The person on whom it
alights must pay a forfeit. No one must take up
his or her arms to escape the cotton. When it
alights, take It up and start anew. It will be a
very sober set Indeed, who can play two or three
rounds without indulging in the heartiest sort of
uproarious laughter.
PENett, Ehtzvenza.=-Let those 'who take part
gather around a table, each with paper and pencil.
Let each draw the head of a man, woman, or any
,animal. 'No player musreee what kind of a head
is drawn by his neighbor. Each player, having
drawn a head, folds the paper so that the peed
shall ant be seen, and passes the paper to his left
hand neighbor, who must draw a body to suit the
head, without seeingthe bend. Of course the. pa
per must be so folded that the second player can
know at what point to attach the body. Having
drawn n'body, each' player folds We or her paper
again as before, and passes it to his left band
neighbor, who - draws the feet and legs, and fold
ing the paper passes it as before. Each player
them writes the name of site Indy or gentleman
on the paper passed to him! ha one of the
players is selected to collect and exhibit the draw
ings tothe company. The results of the drawings
will be found to be very amusing.
Tux LLWTICIL—TIiosa who play this game choose
one of their number for a lawyer. The chairs In
the rpora,nrb arranged In two rn' we facing each
other, when the 'gentlemen take seats in one row
and the ladies In the other, or promiscously Just
as is preferred. The persons sitting opposite each
other are partners, and the lawyer asks questions
of different pereons,.WhiCh must be. answered In
each ease by that perion's Partner. The person
addressed must never answer, but his partner
must be on the alert to answer for him. If Oil&
one make a mistake he must take the lawyer's
place. The lawyer will almost surely catch some
one very
soon, if he asks questions rapidly and

We cell the 'Testa% attention of our readers to the educe
tleemonte of that favorite home remedy, Perry hass le
PAIS hILLER. It has been before thepublic over Tulin . '
mute, and probably him a wider and bettor reputittlen
than any other proprietary modiclae of the prseent day.
At thts period there are but few unacqoainted with the
inerite of the Pain Killer; but while some extol it as n
liniment. they know but little of Its power In easing pain
when taken internally. while others use It Internally with
great success. but are equally Ignorant of Its hauling vir
tues when applied externally. We therefore. wish to say
to all that It is equally successful whether need Internally
or externally, and It stands today, unrivalled by all the
great catalogue of Pautily Medicines. It irautlicient evi
dence of Its virtues as a standard medicine, to know that
It Is now need In all parte of the world, and that its sale le
constantly increasing. No carative agent lies had such
