light, unless religion throws bee Divine
beams around them, to purify and exalt,
making twice glorious that which seemed
all loveliness before. -
Religion is very beautiful--in health or
sickness, in wealth or poverty. We never
enter the sick ()banner of the good, bat
soft music seems to float on the air, and
the burden of their song is, "Lo ! pehce is•
here." N
Could'we look into the thousands of
flunilies to-day, when discontent looks sul
lenly with life,, , we should find the chief
cause of unhappiness, want of religion in
woman.
And hi felons' cells—in places of crime,
misery, destitution, ignorance—we should
behold in all its most horrible deformity,
the fruit of irreligion in woman.
Oh, Religion l benignant majesty, high
on thy throne, thou sittest, glorious and
exalted. Not above the clouds, for earth
clouds never ccme between "thee and the
truly pious tioul—not, beneath the clouds,
for above thee is heaven opening through
a broad vista of exceeding beauty.

And there religion points. Art thou
weary ? it whispers : "rest—up there—
forever." Art thou sorrowing ? "eternal
joy." Art thou weighed down with un
merited ignominy ? "kings and priests in
that holy home.' Art thou poor ? "the
very street before thy mansion shall be
gold." Art thou friendless f "the angels

Friend and-Father." .

On Saturday, the jury in the case of
Frederick Loebig, charged with , the mur
tlei of Mathias Smith, came into court and
rendered a verdict of not guilt y. The
scene will not soon be forgotten by those
who witnessed it. The faithful, affection
ate wife of the, prisoner. who throughout
the trial has never for fora moment absented
herself, stood weeping-by the •side of her
husband to hear the result—lto her, as to
hint, an announipment of fearful' impor
tance. A breMess silence, broken by
the enba of the poor woman. reigned
throughout the ,court, as the clerk, In a clear
and solemn, voice said, “frederick Loehig,
stand and hold up your right hand." The
prisoner, pale and .agitated, but sustained
by his affectionate' wife, did as, he was
directed. The clerk continued addressing
the jury. say you, is the prisoner
gliiity of the matter whereof he stands in
dicted, or not guilty I" The result we
have stated, and no 'goner was it known
than the:man, overpowered by hie tooling",
sank down into the arms ,of his affection
ate wife. She scarcely knowing what to
do, almost beside herself with joy, kissed
him over and over again; and as it this were
not enough. rushed forward, aud seizing
the hands of the counsel who defends
him' bathed them with her tears. . Many
of the by-slanders—among whom were

had not been wet with tears since child
hOod—poured forth nature's sinless tri
bute, and as the prisoner and his wife
left the court-house surrounded by, their
friends, honored their affection by a silent
prayer, for theiauture happiness., We.do
not think there was one present who did
not feel the inestimable value of woman's
undying love.—Ball. Sun.
WHAT CONSTITUTES INTEMPERANCE.-
Judge Pearson, of Harrisburg, Pa., in a
recent charge to the grand jury, derided
that an individual who visits from tavern
to tavern, drinking five or six times 'daily,
is emphatically a man of intemperate hab
its. and that tavern keepers who sell to
such aro liable to prosecution under the
act prohibiting the sale of liquors to %en
of known intemperate habits."
• When you are low spirited, and' feel
like looking at the world through a smoked
glass, take the country, instead of the bot
tle. An hour with birds and mullen
stalks, will bring you around better than
a dollar's worth of brandy smash.
A Chaplain in a State prison was asked
by a pious. friend, how his parishioners
were 'JAIL under oonrielion, ' was the
reply. • •

out to take the proffered weed, but the
Indian wouldn't 4tve Kap; he hung on to
the cigars like gnm Death. "Look here,

"none of of that there ; no tricks alma

;
He was halm.' dignified, unmoved, as au
Indian 'should be; looking' his, assailant
straight in the' foe, and no muscle' mo

a position, threw back his coat, and equsr

said.never a word, looked without the least
alarm, nnwinkingly straight into the facie
of the fast young man; still hokling' out
I the cigars in a mighty friendly sort of ,'a
llway. Theyoung 11111(12 was plucky, and
just in a condition to resent any sort of
insult, or no sort of insult at all. He was
ready to "go in," but the . calmness and
imperturbability of - the Indian rather cowed
him, and he was disposed' to reason. the
matter. "I'll take one," said he, g•cror•
tainly. l• said so before : I froze to a

the Indiati.said not a word, all the time
looking straight in the taco of, the fast

"Look here, old gimlet-eye, I'm getting
riled, my back's coming up, and you and
I'll have a turn; smell, of that, old cop

the nose of the cast iron Indian, who said
not a word, moved not a =nit), but
kept right on looking straight into 'the
face of the fast young man, as Knot caving
a fig for his threats' or taking in at all the
odor of his fist. "VerY well," said the fast
young luau, "I'm agreeable—rift around ;
look to your ugly mug. old pumpkin-head ;"
and he lot go a right-hander square against
the nose of the cast-iron Indian, who nev
er moved au inch"nor stirred a mashie—
looking wig' calm, unchanged dignity, as
before, in the face of his enemy, "Hallo,

"Hallo 1--;-here's al

tomahawk and scalping knife in the belt
of the savage; and his hair began to rise.
The Indian seemed to be making up his,
wind to use them.. "Hold on 1" cried the
fast young man, as he dodged around the
awning post; "Hold on—none of that—.

Hold on, I say, he continued, as the I .
diaii seemed to scowl with peculiar fierc

bolted like a quarter horse down Broad
