,Oh man, however fair it seems',

In languor of sweet itlinness.
Nor linger in the misty Past,
/alia need in 'visicinii vaguiand vast
; ,But with clear eye the Present scan,
And hear the call of God and , man. '

That ca,B; though many visited; is - one
With 7ghty meanings in each tune;
Throng I sob and laughter ehriek and prayer',
Its summons meets thee everywhere.
Think not in sleep to fold thy hatide;
Orgetftil of thy Ford's commands;
From Duty's claims no life is free—
. Behold, To-day bath need of thee
"•
Lctoknp—the wide exte plain
,
Is billowy with its ripened grain,
And on the Summer aid& are rolled
Its l ;waves of emerald and gold.
Thrust in thy'siklg!--nor delay
The work that c.allisfur thee To-day;
To-mor:roW, if it come; will bear
Its own demands of toil and care.
The prent hour allots thy task
:For present strength and patience ask,
And trust his love whose sure supplies
Met all thy. needs as they niiise.
Lo! the broad fields with harrest whitey
Thy .bands to strentious toil invite ;
'And he who labors znd believes,
Shall reap reward Of ample sheaves.

Up, for the time is short--and soon
The morning sun silllclimb to noon;
Up!—ere the herds, kith tram' pling feet,
Outrunning thine, shall spoil the wheat

While . the day lingers do thy best!
Full scion the night will bring its rest;
And, duty done, that rest shall be •
. Full ofi beatitUdes to thee. ,

A woman bending over a bed. A pair
J l f large; sad, suffering eyes looking up into
her face--the eyes of a sick Child'exhaust
ed byl disease, and almost helpless.
"I 0. so tired lying here while you are
at the prayer meeting, mother," sail the
"dust you go to - -day r
"Henry. will stay with you, my dear. I
can't always be at your bedside. And you
must learn to be patient and bear what
God sendS!" • There was a,kind! of dead

real tenderness. Her face was calm, and
her Trimmer that of one absorbed in pious
meditation. You have seen such faces.

"Lett him dare to do it," and I will pun

warm with a flash of anger. ' "Henry!"
A bihy answering to' the call, came, in

With your

Now niind—you are not to leave her for a
single minute."
"Nol ma'am." There was an undertone
of db)htdiense in the promiSing volt*, and
the skilled earof the Mother perceived it.
"If I find yov havestirred' one Iti - ch from
this . roi:un, I will punish you. Very se

thMftt.l'. The poor sick face on' the bed

ward journey; never as the trim means of
grace provided of the. Lord.
"Poor child !" she said to he tell; pity
ingly, as: she tied on her beamet "I'-in
sorry to leave her. BEd% so weak, and
cannot bear to have me out of her sight.
But this is only a temptation of the great
acitirsiitl , to keep me from a Precious
means of grade, which, being provided, I
dare not neglect. To the dear child it will
be only half an houidf Self denial, while to
me it will be a seakiti df refreshment from
the Lord—to her a natural cross, to me a
Christian duty and privilege, whereby I
am able to advance a step nearer heaven.
Ah, me!" lAighing as she continued—the
image, of little Amy presenting itself with
great distinctness. "Ah, nie! It requires
great faith, and almost divine strength to
walk in the footsteps of the Lord. We
must. die daily; suffera constant crucifixion
of the flesh—must deny the tenderest o
mere human appeals if they would become
hindrances in our way."
And so stifling the voice of• God, which
was speaking in her mother's heart, she
turned awdy from the true means of di- Ate
—her present home duty—to spend an
hour in formal prayer, vainly resting in a
mere act Of piety for ;hat acceptance with
God which he has so plainly said comes
only of- Well doing. It is in the cup of
cold watei'3 in doing it Unto the least of
these; in Feeding the 'hungry, and clothing
the naked; in ministering unto the sick; in
a word, in seeking, from love of others, to
do them good, that we find the heaven
appointed means of grace. He who gives
himself up to the work of simply saving
his own soul, will be in great danger of
losing it. It is in seeking to save others,
always looking to God for a purification of
the motives, and the wisdom and strength
to do rights that men secure for themselves
an entrance into heaven.
After an hour spent si the prayer meet
ing—against. which we must not be under
stood as saying, directly or by implication,
a single word ; we are dealing with an in
dividual case, and the prayer meeting—
the mother turned her feet homeward.
Absorbed in a harmonious sphere; exhil
arated by music; lifted up, emotionally,
through the power of eloquent prayer, she
had felt as if in a court of Heaven, and was
fully persuaded that the light of God's
countenance had been turned upon her, and
that she was really "nearer the kingdom"
than she had ever been before.
As she passed into the street; the =the:.
felt a jar of feeling; The light faded from
her soul. Heaven already seemed afar off
Would this have been so if, as our Lord
said,-the kingdom of heaven bad been with
in her? As were the Jews at the time of
his first advent, we of this generation, are
all apt to say, Lo here! and Lo there! But,
He speaks to us now, and with the same
divine meaning in His words, as when he
spoke to the people
,two thousand years
ago—" For behold, the kingdom of God is
within you."
There was a jar of feeling. and a dim
ness of vision. Then the mother's thought
reached homeward, and she saw, mentally,
the wan and wasted countenance of her
first-born—saw her white lips move, and
heard the plaintive voice say—"l get so
tired lying here while you are aWay,
mother.'
How the words rebuked her! "Perhaps
it was wrongin me. She - is so weak, poor
I •
"ctild !"
This thought did not lift her into a more
comfortable state of feelingi As she hur
ried on her way with quick4ning steps, she
tame upo' a crowd of boys land [nen, and
panting' to learn what ocCasioned it, saw
two lads fighting. 13reakitig through ;the
crowd, she caught hold of one of the lads,
who turned iijoii her a frightened look,',
rind then ran off as-fast as' his feet eciald
tarry him. ,It was her Own sob—the boy
she had left to watch with ,her sick child,
while she:spent an hour at the daily prayor
meeting. From a state of heavenly peace,;
how swiftly had she fallen to one of pain-;
ful agitation. Atrows self-accusation
began to pierce her soul, as glimpses of,
truth and duty dawned upon her. Were I
not; the souls of her children as preciou l s ini
the eyes of God as her own; cool! Candi
she claim divine approval ,for pions acts,-
when the'irnmnrtal ones gi‘ien to her were,
rieglente,d, or lett to the will of the tempter
Such questions began to Crowd upon her
mind, flooding it with bitterness.
Next came a brooding concern, deepen
ing to a strange; miful fearl that made her
heart syiver: Amy had been left al) alone.
What 2f she had died! She was so very
weak; not able to lift herself in bed; and
there had been, no one to moisten the lisi
that consuming fever made' so dry.
• Dear, Amy Feeble, patient, wasting
child. it mattered not very much to you,
that mother and brother were away. Much I
more it mattered to them.. You hail .'.suer I
and - tenderer wateliem--rninisiers of high
er comfort---anrrels from the presence of
God. How like a tired child did you lay
your head lovingly to rest. It was so
sweet this rest=so
deep to be broken by the wild cry that
filled the room not long after the "golden
chord was loosened, and the pitcher broken
at the fountain."
The Vice Presidency
As the time approaches for the re-elec- I
tion of a President and Vice President,
public attention 'is naturally attracted to
men most likely to be: made candidates
and elected to these positions. Gen. Grant
is evidently. the favoritelof the Union men
for the Presidency. He will be. nominated
by acClarnation and elected without oppo
sition. It is now proposed by a Philadel
phia paper to make John W. Geary the
candidate for the Vice Presidency on the
tielset with Grant for President. We have
no objections to such d ticket. Our faith
has always been very great in Geary's
ability as a statesman, and we believe that
before he is Governor a year he will be
recognised as one of the. sery ablest men
that evercontrolled the affairs of the State.
By the time 'Geary could be inaugurated
Vice President he will have almost. filled
his term as Governor. We of Pennsylva
nia, who i nominated and elected Geary Governor, can therefore afford to surrender
his service to the nation as Vice President.

After all the abuse heaped on therreed

bama, has reciuested the reissue of rations

The Court of Appeals in Genoa, Italy.
has given judgment in an important case.
The Registar of that town had refused to
sanction the civil matviage of a priest. His!
refuSal had been validated by a lower court;;)
but the sentence has now been quashed,'
and the principle is solemnly affirmed teat
priests can legally depart from their vows
of celibacy.
The South will by and by begin to
think lightly of DenaOratic veracity: .4t
the outbreak of the war, they promised to
help them in the battle-field; but didn't.
More recently promised to back them at
the ballot-box; but they couldn't. They
are alike unreliable with bullet and balkit.

NORTH CanounA.—The I\r"orth Carelina
election seems to hare gone sweepingly in
favor of the rebel ticket,. Worth - is uoubt
less chosezi Governor. The returns from
the Western confine, will of course show a
heavy poll for Dockery, but not sufficiently ,
large to balance the ahnost unanimous .
vote which Worth has received in the ceM.
tre and alOng the seaboard. Vance, wild
was not a candidate, obtained a few votes.
The Legislature will rebel, 'according to
present indications.
The presidential policy, 'as announced
and explained in his recent speeches, finds
no sympathy with ' the loyal voters of the
North, and they have and will repudiate
it in an unmistakable manner when the
question is brought to the arbitrament of
their' ballots.
The 'Montgomery "Mail" has a very'
savage article on "Russia and the United
Stotts," in which it says that bOth bake a
Polandi to keep in subjection, and that "the
despotism of the autocrat and the depot
ism of democracy are in loving embrace."
This loOks very much. like "accepting] the
situation in good faith."
The new regiments do not promise' to
be skeleton ones. Advices.to the Depart

brisk than now. Nearly all who are en
