WHAT TIME HATH TAUGHT ME.
Time to me this troth hath taught,
As year have rolled along ;
Tht more offend from want of thought
Thn from intending wrong.
Time hth taught me that in kindness
There is power to subdue,
Every fault of human kindnc-s,
Erring ones unguarded do.
Time tells me that mild correction.
Breathed into the heart that' aching,
Talis like tones of sweet affection,
On the heart that's nearly breaking.
Time tells me that human pride
Which long has held the sway of passion,
Has been soothed and turned aside,
Melted down by friendship's mission.
Time tells me that love's evangels
-Shall in holy site ice go,
Welcoming recording angels
inmnmune with minds below.
Time tells me that human aid
Strengthens happiness and lore;
Then the heart in God is staid,
Loving only to be loved.
Many a beauteous flower fades,
Tho' we love it e'er so much ;
Inhumanity conveyed.
Wears a void no aid can touch.
So in many a throbbing breast.
Anguish often lies eoncealed ;
Alone forsaken, and oppressed,
Never never to be healed.
GILBERT DENTON'S COUNTRY TEIP.
"Look, here, Denton, if you meet Genie
Vernon, you're a gone case."
"A what?" exclaimed the person ad
dressed.
"Why, I mean to say," continued Will
Langley, "that there is a certain young lady
in the village, who, should we chance to meet
her, would surely carry your very susceptible
heart by storm. In fact, I would have lost
wy own had it not been previously engaged.
However, Gilbert, hurry up, or we shall miss
the boat."
These two very fast friends little knew, as
they talked so unconcernedly about the young
lady, that she would so soon and so deeply
effect the even tenor of their lives and sow
in one of their hearts the seeds of jealousy.
Let me describe, if possible, the character
istics of these young men. Gilbert Demon
was one of those easy, good-natured indi
viduals who take the world as they find it,
and da not care to meet any obstacles in their
path ; but if they should, would either qui
etly retire or go round it in some manner.
Will Langley was the very opposite of
Ilenton; his brain was continually, lika his
lefS on the go. Always ready for anything
which promised enjoyment ot a venturous
or instructive kind; it was he who proposed
that they should take the boat out of town,
instiad of the cars, which would have set
theni duwn within a five minutes walk of
their destination, whereas the boat did not
come within five miles of Will's aunt, where,
thfy wore to spend their annual vacation.
The sail up the sound was much enjoyed
by our city tired friends, and it was with
joyous spirits they set off for their five mile's
"a'.k across the country. But as the sun
was already low down in the west, they
started off at a pretty rapid pace through
the woods to reach the traveled road on
Prospect Hill where they knew they could
take their ease the rest of the way.
The woods were deeply quiet and already
dark as they entered them, and before they
reached the road it had become so dark they
could not see each other. But Langly, hav
ing been over and over the place when a boy,
seemed to know the way as well as if in his
own apartment at hotue, and they went for
ward raj.idly and with very few words.
Suddenly a flash of lightning gleamed
through the trees, showing them the path
m distinctly for the moment aa starlight, and
the next it was darker than before. Not
willing to be caught in the woods in the
stonn they knew would shortly reach them,
they hurried a!onr, the path every minute
being illuminated by vivid flashes of light
nmg, and followed by the most terrific claps
of thunder which startled the birds from
their nests in affright.
"Isay, Will," ..puke Denton, "ain't we
tar the road ? Just now I thought I saw a
carnage.
"Yes, it maybe so, but I did not think we
were so near it yet," said Langley.
The next flash showed them to be not only
in clo proximity to the road, but a scene
that made their blood curdle ; for there in
t-e Mad wa a carriage, the horses rearing
u in affright, and two villainous looking
tuen. one at the horses heads and the other
-''-inijiiriz to rob the occupants of the car
f:it. Instantly conjecturing their purpose,
wr friends started forward to help; and the
Best fla?h showed them another set ne. In
'ead of two villainous characters and a car
r?e, that flash showed one scoundrel wel
ter.n-on the ground side hy side with. Lansrly
"J'ile the other villain fled up the road, and
'be carriage was far in the opposite direction
uh Peuton trying to restrain the terrified
iiorM which were going at a fearful pace.
All this occurred in a minute, but it, took
longer time for Deuton to curb the fright
ened animals and stop the carriage. The
rain was now falling steadily, and the thun
der had died away. The bea-sts were too
much exhausted to go farther, so that Den
til jumping from his scat on the carriage
'here he had mounted in the first moment
of their attack on the robbers,, opened the
carnage door and asked whether the inmates
re all safe.
God bless you, sir," murmured a low
voice between a series of hysterical sobs.
i ou have saved our lives, though my sis
ter has fainted away."
To wet his handkerchief in the rain and
hand it to the unseen person who had spo
ken, and tell her that he would be compelled
to leave her for a short time, as his friend j
was probably badly hurt, was the work of a J
moment. j
'But I will come back and give you all
tha assistance in my power as soon as I can
find him," continued he as he left them.
To retrace his rou x was an act of affec
tion, and it was rapidly done ; but about half
way he met Langly, soaked through, his arm
broken, and rapidly becoming hysterical from
the pain and excitement of the last few min
utes.
"Will, I say, old fellow, do not give in
now, after winning the victory. Let me help
you along ; the carriage is near, and we must
find a house where we will be attended to."
But Will's strength wasgoing,and before
they reached the carriage he was a dead
weight in Denton's arms, who bravely woik
ed and managed to get Langly into the car
riage ; and having shut the door he drove
the still panting horses slowly along the road.
It happened to be in the right direction, but
it was nearly two miles before he reached
any house, and that was just on the outskirts
of a village, as he could see by the lights
twinkling in the windows.
Opening the gates he entered the premises
and drove the carriage up to the door where
he violently rang the bell.
The door was shortly opened by a servant
who, when ahe saw Denton's pale face and
sorry figure, gave one yell of dismay, and
rushed into the parlor, crying, '"O, massa,
there's a ghost atde frout door I Oh heben
oh oh "
" hat is the matter?" asked the gentle
man addressed, as he arose and went toward
the door. "Ah, sir, what ails you ?" as he
met Gilbert in the hall,
"We have met with an accident, sir, and
must claim your hospitality for to-night at
least ; my friend is badly hurt. and there are
two Indies in the carriage insen-ible from the
fright they have undergone "
"Carriage f Ladies! They must be mv
daughters. What is the matter? For heav
en's sake telf me."
In as few words as possible the story was
told, and by the time it was finished.the la
dies were recovering,whilc Langly was moan
ing on the lounge, but being tenderly cared
for by the lady of the house, who shared her
attentions between her daughters und their
rescuers.
It appears the young ladies had gone off
that afterfloon to the neighboring village on
a visit to some friends where they had also
received from an acquaintance quite a large-
amount of money. 1 he coachman had seen
it, and having all the afternoon to himself
concocted the attack in company with a fel
low villain, but they were unexpectedly
frustrated in their attempt by the timely
appearance of oar friends.
Nothing could be kinder than the atren
tion they received and after the excitement
had worn off a little, and Will had fallen in
to a quiet sleep, the old gentleman went to
gaze at him, and exclaimed,
"Why, Mess my soul! Look here, moth
er: its W ill Langley ! aou retuemDer turn
don't you, girls?"
A vivid blush on the face of the eldest.
not unobserved by Denton, told that at least
she remembered him, while the youngest
exclaimed. "Of course we do ! And I'm so
glad he saved us, for now we can nurse him
ever so much better than if he was a stran
ger: can't we, Genie?"
Another blush from Genie, again noticed
by Gilbert, was the only answer except a sort
of hannv liirht which shone in her eyes. And
when he went to bed that night he dreame
about Genie, and thought himself in Will's
place and Genie bending over him so ten
derlv : and when be eot up in the moraine
this reflection did not put him in a very good
humor. In fact. Denton was already in love
and becomiug jealous of his wounded fiiend
At the breakfast table Mr. Denton was
fnrmallr introduced to the young ladies. tho
ti events of the previous evening ha
made them already well acquainted ; an
Mr. Vernon insisted that our friends should
remain at his house at least uutil Mr. Lang
ly should have recovered sufficiently to take
cure of himself.
The breakfast through with, Mr. Vernon
said, "Now, Genie, get on your bonnet and
show Mr. Denton to Wili'sAut.t Mary,who,
no doubt, is wondering at his non appear
ance last evening with his carpet bag."
The walk to Mrs. Campbell's was through
a shady, pleasant road, and our friends did
not have much to say at first.confining them
selves to the country and the scenery round
about, till the thought of Laugk-y started a
conversation about him.
"Fie is a splendid iVIliw," saii Gilbert,
"and I am sorry that such at) accident shi-tild
have occurred at the outlet of our trip; It
will disappoint him not a litt'e, fur he antic
ipated one of Lis old time roaming" throuch
the country, about which I suppose juu

manv a Muc
ins love of nature has always made these
ram hies uiiK-t delightful. But those days
are past now. and will never return anain.
But here we are at Aunt Mary's, and here
is the lady herself. Aunt Mary, allow me
to introduce Mr. Denton, a frierd of Will's,
who came up in the sound boat instead ot
the train. Mr. Denton. Mrs. Campbell."
Mrs. Campbell shook hands with Gilbert,
and looked in Genie's face to know why ill
himself was not there So Genie told her
the story of the robbery and accident of Will.
The good lady was very much excited to
hear such news, and was ordering bolsters,
pillows, and her carriage to bring Will to
her, when Genie said:
"Now, Aunt Mary, you don't think we
can let Will leave us until he is well, do you,
after he and Mr. Denton here saved our
ives ? Not a bit of it ; you can come and
see him, but he remains at our house for
some time. Besides, Will and I have some
private arrangements to make which will
necessitate his remaining with us,"
"Well, well, I suppose it must be so, and
I will not go after him. But, Genie, you
must be very careful ot him, for he is my
only pride ; except him I have no other kin,
and he is my all."
Mr. Denton now took his leave, and they
retraced their steps, Genie entering into an
animated description of the scenery around
and before they reached home, a picnic was
planned to visit Seton's Falls as soon as
Langley was recovered sufficiently.
Of course when the news of the attempt
ed robbery was circulated throughout the
village, which it was early next morning, an
immense excitement was caused, which
could only be allayed by calling on the
young ladies and receiving an introduction
to Mr. Denton who became the hero of the
hour; though he. poor fellow, having over
heard two old ladies canvassing the proba
bilities of a match between Miss Vernon
and Mr. Langley, cast, down his heart until
he was almost as sick as Langley.
One of them paid that Genie was engaged
already, and that it was an old love. The
other remarking that she had understood as
much. They went off well satisfied as to
he result of their speculations, but leaving
Gilbert Denton in a passion ot love and
jealousy.
Every day be and Genie were together,
and though they were evidently good friends,
and she in company one of its 1'ndiest mem
bers, yet she was very shy when in his pres
ence.
Langley, under tl e tender treatment he j
. , , ,
received, was soon sole to move around, arm
about ten dnvs after the accident it was an
nounc-id that on the coming Wednesday
the picnic to Seton's Falls would take place.
Great pieparations were made. All the
young folks of the village were ii'vited. and
the old folks set. to work to make huge
quantities of pics, cakes and refreshments
such as they "tily were capable of concoct
ing. An l when the eventful day arrived a
errj party set out for the greenwood near
the Fall-.
Mr. Lanpley was the centre of a pitying
bevy of young ladies, and of course vvn rlic
centre of attraction.
Denton, attempting to make hi m -elf u-e-
ful to Miss Vernon and some of the oilier
youns ladies set the table, put the salt into
tho sugar bowl, and when at the table he
asked with great earnestness whether Mia.s
Thornton, who sat next to him, would not
have a piece of cake, he seized hold of a
hot tea pot, and dropping it as suddenly,
succeeded in raising u laugh against him
which was Dot at all quieted when, after
wards, he so obligingly offered to bring a
pail of water from the brook to wash the
dishes, and went sprawling into it himself.
In fact.it seemed the fates were against him
that day, for ho was so forgetful of himself
that he was continually in some awkward
position, though he took it all good na
tured.y.
Feeling down-hearted he at last stole away
from the boisterous, merry company, and
rambling down the stream he found a mos
sy bank where he sat down, and was soon
wrapped in meditation. A crashing, rush
ing sound through the bushes startled him
Tom his reverie, and rising to his feet he
saw a furious bull cha-sing two of the young
ladies, attracted by the red shawl of one of
them; and as they rushed toward him his
quick eye noticed Miss Vernon, who cried
to him, "Save me Gilbert! Save us !
To act was instantaneous.
"Run past me," he cried ; and as they pass
ed him he seized the obnoxious ?hawl and
ran in a different direction, attracting the
bull from them to himself.
With a snort o: rage the huge animal
rushed toward Denton, who, seeing it use
less to run. jumped behind a tree.and threw
the shawl from him. The bull then rushed
at the shawl, and Gilbert atteiflpted to es
cape, and was retreating when the infuriated
animal again rushed for him. This time it
was for life or death, and he sped through
the woods with the speed of a deer, the bull
crashing and snorting behind. In that exci
ting chase they did not heed the brook with
its smooth. grassy edge on. the top of a bank
of rocks twenty feet high over which Gilbert
went down into the eddying sfrcam below.

When Di ihoii recovered biuiselt he f.-lt a
soft pair of band- tenderly chafing his, and
was sur he al.-o felt a Miming ki-on bis
brow, anil hoard a sweet voice murmuring:
' Dear, dear. Gilbert; oh. don't di !"
And herewith he relapsed into in-etisibil
ity again. although he had a viiiftised notion
that he was very happy. And when be re
covered again he had rime to tell the young
lady of his love, which was made bold by
the kiss he received, though Genie aiays
would dony that she Lis.-ed him.
The picnic was over now, and there were
two sick persons instead of one to take care
of, and there were two harpy hearts in the
carriage with Anuieand Langley when they
returned. And when Langley noticed their
happy looks he congratulated them so warm
ly that Gilbert's jealousy vanished at once.
And when Will said that they must be mar
ried on the same day as e and his "Wild
Columbine," as he called her, Denton knew
what Miss Vernou was so confidentially talk
ing about with his friend Mr. Langley.
A Eelic of the Eevolution.
A writer iu the Bennington Banner gives
the following interesting account of the old
"Catamount Tavern," still standing in the
village one of the historical landmarks of
the town: "Here stands the 'Catamount
Tavern' around which probably cluster more
incidents of historical interest than any other
building now standing. In it is the little
seven by niue 'Council Room,' ever memor
able as the sacred place where the 'Council
of Safety' met during the Revolution to ar
range the details of war, and the admission
of Vermont into the Union, and our trying
controversy with N.York. Over the thresh
hold of the southwest door the British offi
cers were introduced as prisoners of war.
About thirty feet from the same point.upon
the 'sign post, and from phich the house
derived its name, was the stuffed skin of a
catamouiit.with its head and bare teeth to
wards the State of New York, in defiance of
her arbitrary demands. In this house was
imprisoned and tried Redding, who, for
'criminal conduct,' was convicted and hung.
Here was also administered the 'breach seaL'
And from under this roof, on the morning
of the day of the conflict, a beloved son,
buoyant in health, and strong in strength,
went out to battle, on ihe going down of the
sun, borne by bis weeping comrades, was re
turned a bleeding corpse. Says the stricken
father, 'Show me the boy, that I may with
my own hand close the gaping wounds,' and
he called him 'blessed.' A devoted wife,
unable to stand the withering blow, ere a
few suns, crushed with grief, she, too, was
borne to lay beside him ; and in this house
lived and died for a period of one hundred
years, one of the ino.-t exemplary famines
that ever adorned a New England village.
The Future of Llormonisin.
The Gentiles are coming thickerand faster.
Brighaui sees the threatening danger, and
is struggling desperately to avert it ; but the
events of the last few weeks show that the
principle of exclusion is to prove at least a
partial failure. The number of doubting or
disaffected Mormons is larger than generally
supposed, and it is reasonably certain that
if he "cuts off' all who deal with Gentiles,
he will perform that act for at least one-third
of his community. And here let me men
tion a curious fact, not generally known to
. . . . . i - j
outsiders. Ut all those who nave emoraceu
M mi monism since its start , over sixty per
cent, have apos'uiized and kit them. Brig-
ham laielj stated this fact in one of his ser-
mons.und their own records prove it. Their

gains have t-cen grossly esaggeraieu , as,
for itistancc, they publihcd, last summer,
an expected immigration of twenty thousand,
and the whole number brought overdid not
reach five hundred. Suh Lake Letter.
The Israelitks. An "American Isra
elite" makes the following remarks through
the columns ot the Ji'bn w Leader : "Our
various synagogues are but jo many stages
for ministers to display their individual and
particuhr whims and notions of what a syn
agogue service should be. Everything is
Germanized. I admit that we are greatly
Indebted to Germany for much of our lit
erature and talent ; but we are Americans,
and. while willing to render homage to tal
ent, everywhere, think that some regard
should be had for those of our fellow-believers
who speak the vernacular and are not
Germans."
Death of "Tommt." A recent letter
from Ynkohoina, Japan, says: It is said
that in one of the late actions near Neegata,
Japanese "Tommy," who attracted so much
attention from the American ladies in the
days of the Emba.-s iy, was killed. He was
shot through the breast and leg, hut died
fighting for his chief, true to the Tokngawa
clan. Tommy was a brave little fellow, and
won several promotioi s, some from his own
merit and some through the influence of our
MinUtpr hnre. for whom, at one time, he
was interpreter.
Tn Australia, recently, some very large
nuggets of gold have been fwnd. At Gym

course of a couple of days. At Berlin, near
Inglewood, one man obiained in a couple Oi

Dr. Franklin recommends a young man in

Timely Advice. j
We shall doubtless render many of our
readers a favor by copying the following
advice as to winter shoes, from HudTt Jour
nal of Health:
"Like the gnarled oak that has withstood
the storms and thunderbolts of centuries,
man himself begins to die at the extremi
ties. Keep the feet dry and warm, and we
may snap our fingers in joyous triumph at
disease and the doctors. Put on two pairs
of thick woolen stockings, but keep this to
yourself ; go to some honest son of Saint
Crispin, and have your measure taken for a
stout pair of winter boots and shoes; shoes
are better for ordinary, every day use, as
they allow the ready escape of the odors,
while they strengthen the ankles by accus
toming to depend on themselves. A very
slight accident is sufficient to cause a. sprain
ed ankle to an habitual boot-wearer. Be
sides, a shoe compresses less, and hence ad
mits of a more vigorous circulation of the
blood. But wear boots when you ride and
travel. C?ive directions, also, to have no
cork or India rubber about the shoes, but
to place between the layers of the soles,
from out to out, a piece of stout hemp or
tow linen which has been dipped in melted
pitch. This is absolutely impervious to wa
ter does not absorb a particle which we
know the cork does, and after a while be
comes "soggy" and damp lor weeks. When
you put them on for the firs' time, they
will feel as easy as an old shoe, and you
may stand on damp, places for hours with
impunity."
Not the Person. Yesterday evening a
rather seedy looking individual appeared at
the central station and inquired if he could
be honored with an interview with the Chief
of Police ; and being replied to in the affir
mative, was shown into the private office.
"What can I do for you?" inquired the
official.
"Are you the Chief?"
"Yes."
"Can I speak to you privately?"
"Yes speak out."
"Will no one hear us."
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Well, then, listen ; as I was crossing
Galvez Canal, about 12 o'clock last night, I

the edge, stooped and"
"Threw the child into the canal!" ex
claimed the appalled officer, his face white
with horror.
"No," replied his visitor; "icashed its

"See here, my friend," quietly remarked
the Chief, "I'm not the person you want to

Probably the most contented postmaster
