Truth.
BY MUMPS hE WORDII.
A million eyes belong to truth,
A million hands are hers;
Count them by every flower that blooms,
By every leaf that stirs;
Count by the sands upon the shore,
And by the world of stars.
She walks where tread no other feet,
She stoops to conquer men;
Goes to the outcast on the heath,
The wretched in the fen ;
B3nds , to the wanderer afar,
And Galls him home again.
Earth dare not give a meaner stall.
Than where her Lord wee born;
He who deserved a plowed couch,
Did not a manger scorn ;
So truth to hut or hovel goes,
Like ligbt,et breakiog morn.
She makes the Chanceliar and child
Alike receive her word ;
Makes any one her messenger
Who loves her mighty Lord;
For parchment nor for paper cares,
If only God be heard,
She takes a word to snit the taste,
It may he short or long,
In doctrine, promise, history,
In parable or song ;
Speaks by the hearth, sings in the hall,
And chides the listless throng.
In biggest tome, or newest tract,
in volume and by voice,
She offers gems and charities,
And men may take their choice;
As rich and poor have each their crops,
When harvesters rejoice.
She lingers in the home of want,
Stays by the palace door,
The rioh she poor to spirit makes,
And rioh in graoe the poor;
And both, if written in her book,
Are brothers evermore.
With million eyes she closely spies
Tour deeds of every day;
With million ears she ever bears
The good or ill you say;
A million hands do her commands,
To help you on bar . way.

CHRISTIAN BILINVING AND LIVING. Sermons by
.D. Huntington, D.D. Pp. 528. Boston :
Crosby; Nichots 4' Co. Pittsburgh: Kay i t Co.,
and John ~ Davison. 1860.
This is book worthy
,of;speoial attention.
The author has, for along time, occupied a high
position as a man of learning, as a writer of more
than ordinary powers, and as a preacher, of un
doubted ability, to the University of 'Cambridge.
For several years, it has been reported; his views
of Divine truth were gradually changing from
Unitarianism to Orthodoxy. And within a short
time, bolas openly avowed his adhesion to Evan
gelleal 'doctrines, in opposition to all the forms
and phases of Socinianism, and on this account
he has resigned his place as preacher to the Uni
vereit3r, and as Financier Professor of Sacred
Morals.
These Sermons give evidence of most careful
thought ; but they are not merely the declara
tions of an intellectual belief. They give proofs,
at least, several of them do, of being the utter.
ances of the experiences of soul through which .
thaauthor has passed, while advancing from one
step to another along the path that has finally led
him to the Dvangelical platform. This is especi
ally the case in the sermon on , s Life, Salvation,
and Comfort for Man, in the Divine Trinity."
And, we may remark in passing, that this sermon
is worthy of most careful study, because of the
manner in which the subject is treated, its highly
suggestive character, and because of the power
ful application of the doctrine to the wants of
the soul. The clearness with which the orthodox
faith appears, varies in the different sermons, but
his entire adoption of it is beyond dispute. The
book is•one that will attract the man of letters;
the minister will feast upon it, because of the
freshness with which old and familiar truths are
stated, because of the processes of heart' and
mind that are revealed ; and it will afford much
matter for calm and devout reflection to every in
telligent Christian.
TEE VOYAGE OT THE Fox " IN THU ARCTIC

Fate of Sir John Franklin and kis Companions..

Maps and Illustrations. Pp. 375. Boston':

vison. 1860. '
For long years, the fate of the gallant Sir
John Franklin and his band of noble followers
was unknown. But the mystery has been, at
length, solved. An expedition, set on foot by
Lady Franklin herself, aided by some sympathiz
ing friends, after men of science and government
officials had pronounced further attempts toward
the discovery of any more traces of the lost party
hopeless, was the means whereby this result has
been obtained. Sir John died in 1847, and there
is not the least probability that a single , one of
his companions is now living. Copt. McClintock
with a chosen band, in a little vessel of one km- -
dred and seventy tons, after many adventures
and disconragements that would have entirely
disheartened ordinary men, dbmovered , and
brought home the papers and relics that reveal
the sad story of the sufferings, trials, and death
of those men who haVe so long been the subjects
of lamentation and search.
This book is mostly made up of , the admirable
journal •by Capt McClintock. The' style is
woods clear and singularly modest, while
from beginning to end, it'possesses all the interest
and fascination of a romance. The descriptions
of Arctic . scenery * and habits could not be better.
The many maps and illustrations are remarkably
fine and satisfactory, and many will read with
moistened eyes the exact fue , siralles of the papers
discovered, and the account given of relics that
have been brought home.
Moreover, the lessons here taught of the a
vantages to be derived from the exercise of sound
ndgment and determined resolution, are highly
alaable.

while, coppers are seen at once. In like manner,
no doubt we have taken up more pretentious
works of but little value, while this book of real

notice. The book Is just what it purports to be,
on its title page, and deserves a place in every

of North America, and' those mentioned in Scrip

out employing more than was really necessary, of
the barbarous technioal distinctions with which
so many naturalists overload their works. A
correct outline, of the science is given; a good

" The Grit Bare-Legged Laddie."
Sixty years ago a stout bony youth of
eighteen yeare old, who had been known
among his neighborhood as "a grit bare.
legged laddielA called son a poor • village
echoolmaeteri'and sad*:
"I would like to attend your evening
school, sir."
" What do you wish to study ?" asked tbe
wisher.
" I want to learn to read and write," re•
plied the lad.
The teacher looked into the lad's face
with a somewhat scornful glance, shrugged
his shoulders) and said
" Very well, you can attend."
Now if that bony lad: had said to the
teacher, " I'mean to beoorne a great inven
tor, to be the companion of rich and noble
men, to hold conversation with kings, and
to, write my - name among the great men of
the world,' I dare say the leacher would
have called the boy a fool for cherishing
such wild dreams. Yet that poor bony lad,
who at eighteen did not know the , alphabet, :
did all thoie things before he died.
Who was he ?. His name was George
ptephenson, the great railway pioneer
It was not, the fault of young George that
he was ignorant; it was only his misfortune.
his parents were too poor to send- him - to
Sallee!. Ho was the son of the fireman of a
pumping engine in a colliery. his ;birth
place-was a cottage with a clay floor, 'mud
wall, and bare Afters. He had, to help
earn his living' from his earliest years first
by herding cows and barring up the gates
of the , mine at night.: Next 'he was put to
picking stones from the coil, and after that
to driving a horse, which hauled coal from
the pit. l3pand-by he was made assistant
fireman to his father. When be was seven
teen he was made plugman of a pumping
engine—a higher post than his father's=
and had °limed, as it seemed, to the top of
his ladder. What hope was there for a
youth who could not read at seventeen ?
But George had hope in his breast. His
engine-was wiessou book to him. -He took
it apart and put it together again, studied
it, loved it, and when he was told that there
were books which told about engines, he
made up his mind to go to school:
To school he went, and soon learned all
that the village masters could teach. When
twenty years old he was made brakesman,
and began to think about inventing bettor
engines than he saw about him.
Thus working, thinking, reading, he kept
on, avoiding all bad habits, until ho built a
locomotive that traveled at the rate of four
miles an hour on a tearaway. This was a
great affair at that time.'
His next work was a railway eight miles
in length, and from this point he went on
until he was known as the great railway
pioneer of the world.
George was often laughed at by men who
thought themselves much wiser than he.
One day he was proposing to build an en
gine to run twelve miles an, hour, A grave
looking gentleman, thinking to put hiM
down, said :
"Suppose one of these engines to be
going along a railroad at the rate of nine or
tan miles an hour and that a vow were-to
PREABYT-RRIA:Nt AND -A_Dir-OCATE.
stray upon,. the line, would not that be a
very awkward circumstance ?".
"Yes," replied Mr. Stephenson, very
awkward,:indned=for ,the cow 1"
Thus, by his own - industry, did the " grit
bare-legged laddie " climb to a very high
place among men. Great tried, and even
kings, sought his advice, wealth flowed into
his purse, his name was -honored, his char
acter respected. At a ripe age he died and
went to his eternal reward.-
Let this sketch of the grit bare-legged
laddie " cheer on the boys and girls to
patient effort in the path of duty. Learn
something every day. Preis forward 'I Be

Agricultural,
Manner of Milking.
The manner of milking has amore powerful
and lasting influence on the productiveness
of the cow than most farmers are aware of.
That a slow and careless milker soon dries
up the beat cows, every practical farmer and
dairyman knows. The first requisite of a
good milker is, of course, the utter eleanli,
Imes. Without this, the milk is unendura
ble. The udder should, therefore., be care
fully cleaned before the milking commences:
The milker may begin gradually and gently,
but should steadily increase the rapidity of
the operation till the udder is emptied, using
a pail sufficiently large to holdall, without
the necessity of changing. Cows are very
senaitive, and the pail cannot be changed,
nor can the milker stop or Asa during the
process of milking, without leading the eciw
more or less to, withhold her milk. The rit-,
most cares iihotdd tbe taken 3ojetrip the Iwifl
drop, and do it rapidly, 'and not in a slow'
and negligent manner, which is sure to have
its effect on the yield , of the cow. If any
milk is left, it is re-absorbed intolhe system,
or else becomes caked; and diminishes the
tendency to secrete a full quantity afterwards.
If gentle and mild treatment is observed
and persevered in, the operation of milking
appears to be one of pleasure to the animal;
as it undoubtedly is; but if -an opposite
mum is pursued—if, at every restless
movement, caused, perhaps, by pressing a
sore teat, the animal is harshly spoken to,
she will be likely to learn to kick as a habit,
and it will be difficult to overcome' it after
ward. To induce quiet .and readiness to
give down tie milk freely, it is better that
the cow should be fed at milking time with
cut food, or roots, placed within her easy
reach. The same person should milk the
same cow regularly, and not change from one
to another, unless there are special reasons
for it.
Composting Nanures,
It is not uncommon to hear men say they
lack manure—cannot obtain enough, to ten
der their soil productive. We involuntarily
look' about to see the evidence' that they
have used all they have at hand, and to dis
cover the Character . of their Preparation of the
same. Cannot get manure enough ? But what
efforts are made to increase the stock on
hand ? How is Manure in this country pre.
pared ? hew used - after -"preparation ?" If
the fernier hart a stable, the - manure usually
is thrown out of windows under eaves, on
the sunny side of the barn, where it lies
during the Spring rains and eunehine, until
May or June, often during the entire Sum
mer until Autumn—or it is thrown out of
the door, or thrciugh or ever it the entire
herd enter the stable—and that is all its
preparation. Few look beyond the excre
tions of stabled cattle for manure. • Andyet
this forms bnt a small part of "tlie material
for plant fgOd every farm should afford.
Thereetre the leaves of the woodland, the
muck from the sloughs, the straw from the
thresher," the night soil, manure from the
hen - house,.the hog Manure, all, the slop not
used for "swill " from the house, dry grass
in the fence corners, corn stalks and dead
vegetable matter, which affords shelter and
breeding nests for, initeeti—ill these and
many, more items wimight enumerate, such
as bones, ashes, old lime, corn Cobs, chip
manures, Sze., &c., mixed, put- in heaps,
sheltered from the sun and rain, and pitched
over when there is leisure to do it, and ad
ded to every opportunity—which is much
more frequent than people imagine who lame
never practised it—will afford less excuse
for the complaint of want of fertilizers. It
is better two heaps should be prepared or
kept in process of preparaticM—one to re
ceive such material as may be used immedi
ately, or as deemed necessary, and another
to work thoarse manures which re
up
. e .c
quire time in their decompeeition. And
when we talk of decomposition, lei' it ;be re
membered, we should have absorbents—
muck, charcoal, &0., to , - absorb Whit escapes
from decomposing substanees.
The Maple.
This is one of the most splendid of
American forest trees. There arc commonly
enumerated three species of the maple,
namely : White maple, Acer ricrayearpum
red maple, Aeer rubrum ; and the bard or
rock maple, sugar maple, Aar eaceharinum.
The Met is a tall, stately tree of two varie
ties„ one of which presents a straight and
smooth grain, and is much used fora variety
of purposes connected with the mechanical
arts, for ship timber, and for fuel ; the other
is less free in rift, presenting usually grains
more corrugated and convolved. The latter
is often called "birds eye," .and= is really a
most desirable and durable wood. Like the
former, it is much used for various artistic
purposes, being remarkably hard, firm, and
ponderous, and capable of receiving a high
polish;
The Acer saccharinum, or rook maple, is
probably the most beautiful and valuable of
the three. It is, sometimes kno,wn by the
appellation of the sugar tree. On the banks
Of the Saco, in Maine, where it imbibes the
rich matter! essential to, ite' - growth from the
inexhaustible deposits contained' in 'the fer
tile alluVial soil, it attains, ordinarily, a MOst
Majestic development The sugar maple
abounds extensively in most of the New
England 'States though it is most corn
num in Maine, New Hampshire and Ver
mont. In Massachusetts it is also quite
common, and sometimes constitutes exten
sive forests, which are possessed of great
value, both for the wood, which is much
prized for fuel and'lnitinti cabinet work, and
for the sap, which is'boiled into sugar. The
maple is very easily propagated, and when
used for ornamental • purposes, is unrivaled
in the richness of its luxuriant shade. The
white maple has ;a rapid growth, does well
on almost any kind of soil, and when trans
planted in the . Spring, and properly tended,
grows with scarcely any diminution of vigor.

neglected. We too often see farms upon
which no provision has beep made for the

OEM ill afford the loss which results ? To

Preserve the Birds.
The owners of land eau have birds, or
they can have , destructive insects—it ,de
pends upon them to choose which. If they
like vermin on their trees and crops, on the
tops, the branches, roots, everywhere, than
they will id' rid of the birds, of course.
But if. the, pretty, singing, hopping, ,chirp.
ing, flying, bright eYed birds, are preferred
to canker-wortns,- ourculios, grubs, and all
manner of unsightly worms and bugs, why
then they mast get rid of or punish the
boys and MOD that hurt the one and cause
the other to increase, and multiply, and
devour. They will even take particular
pains to put up boxes and houses for wrens
and sparrows, and the like, to live in, and
to feed those who stay among us in Winter.

English Railroads.
The railroads of. Great Britain and Ire.
land, completed at the beginning of 1866,
cute ndod eight thousand and fifty-four
and more than enough of single rails were
laid ,to make a belt around the globe. The
cost of constructing these railroads had been
X 280,000,000; The working stook corn=
prised five thousand locomotive engines and
one hwidra and 'fifty thousand -carriages
and trucks; and the coal.consumed annually
by the engines amounted to , two million ;
tons; so that, in every minute, four tons of
coal flashed into steam twenty tons of water.'
In a single year, there were one hundred'
and eleven millions of passengers conveyed'
on railroads, each passenger traveling an
average: of twelve miles. The receipts dur
ing the year amounted to £20 ,215,000; . and
there was no instance on record in which
the receipts of a railroad had not been of
ascontinuons growth, even where portions'
of the traffic had been abstracted by new
lines. The wear and tear of the railroads
was, at the same time, enormous. For in.
stance, twenty thousand tons of iron rails
required, to be annually replaced, and'
twenty-six millions of wooden sleepers
perished in the same time. To supply this
number of sleepers, three hundred thousand
trees were felled, the growth of which would
require little less than five thousand acres,
of forest land. The cost of running was
fifteen pence per mile. Tunnels, of a
size never before contemplated, have pane.
trated for miles through hard reeks, or
through shifting clays and sands, in order
to admit of the conetracthn :these rail
roads; embankments and viaducts have
been rabsed'and erected on a scale of magni
ficence surpassing any former ein:iilar works;
bridges of varioun novel kinds, invented
and constructed: for the special occasions,
carry the railroads over straits of the sea,
through gigantic} tubes—across' rivers, sus
pended from,rods eupported by ingeniously
devised piers and girders.—and over slanting
roads on iron beams, or on brick arches built
askew.
Coal.
It is already ascertained that, by the pro
cess of vegetable growth;and decay in the
hoary past, thick beds of coals have been
accumulated' in the rocks of the United
States, over 'an area of more than twenty
thousand square miles, and probably many
more to be discovered. Yet upon a, mode
rate calculation, those already known con
tain more than one million one hundred
['thousand cubic miles of coal; one mile of
which, at the rate it is now used, would
furnish the'; country with= coal for a thousand
years ;"'So that a million, of years will not
exhaust our supply. What an incalculable
increase bf the use of steam, and a conse
quent increase of population and general
prosperity, does such a treasure of fuel
open before this country ! If our numbers
should beconie only as many to the square
mile as in Great Britain, or two hundred
and twenty-three, there,is room enough, this
side of We Rocky Mountains, for five hurt:
dred millions; and, including the Western
slope of those mountains, for seven hundred
millions, equal almost to the present popula

is in prospect, is only an accidental, or int&

the reigns of Edward Sixth and Elisabeth. By Samuel
Hopkins. 8 vols., Bvo. Tel. L':s2,so.
Thin volume is quite as remarkable for historical area
racy as for pictorial skill. Critics who have examined its
authorities with aerupulons care, speak in the higheet
terms of its stern fidelity to truth. Mr. Hopkine will take
his place with the leading historians of the country, Ban
croft, Preece% and Motley.
This work displays a deep historical research, is admi
rably written, and must take a prominent place In our
literature."—lyrovldence Journal.
"This noble and sightly volume Is attractive by its
literary contents, se well as by its unsurpassed mechanical
execution. It hes the interest of a historical romance, so
minute are the details, so dramatie the narration eo
eharacterietio the conversations, and lifelike the deeCrip
tious."—Philetian Register.
' "The volume is a aeries of pictures most okilirtilly

TYKE PACIFIC 'EXPDXITOR.
The PACIFIC EXPOSITOR is to be devoted to the expo.
&lion of God's Word, and the preaching of the Gospel,
according to the Standards of our Church. We wish to do-
by the Pram, for our fellow-citliene, Just what we'do for
Calvary congregation every Sabbath ; that le, to expound,
explain and preach to them the Word of the Living God.
We would, if possible, furnish sermons to be .read on the
- Lord's day, in the lonely place of our valleys sod mountains,
where there is no pastor or' evangelist to open bin mouth
and show the way of salvation; and into the crowded vil
lage of miners, farmers, and travelers, where as yet there
is no home of worship, we desire to send the EXPOSITOR, to
open to them the. Scriptures - and preach:unto them Jesus.
It is well known that a large number or - the half million of
souls that are on this coast, do not attend any 'church or
meeting-house; many thousand. of them never hear a
sermon preached from year to year; We would furnish
them with such reading es would remind them of their
early training—the home of their youth—and cause them
to seek and serve the Gad of their fathers. with a perfect
heart and a willing mind: We hope to make the Exzes
rens. a missionary, that may preach even where the col
pditeur and the evangelist do not go.
Not one dollar of the subscriptions will be appro
priated to the editor's private use. All that Is .sub
scribed beyond the actual coat, will he spent in ex
tending the circulation of the work among our miners,
cattle-drivers, farmers, sailors and travelers: The Ex
roams will be issued every month, at three dollars per
annum, in advance. It will make an octavo volume of oveug,
six hundred pages. It Is very neatly printed, and on goof
paper; The postage prepaid to any part of the United
States Is one CENT for each number. Gold dollars, or three
dollar pieces ' or drafts on the San Francisco Express Com
panies,,can bes , sent at our risk, by mail.
To my friends and the Christians of "the blessed old
States," I would say, that though California Is making
them rich, we are poor, and in building up Christian biotite-
tions, we need not only, your prayers and sympathy, bat we
peed your oontribistions. As a missionary agency, it is
difficult to see how you can do as mush by three dollars In
any other way, as you can do by subscribing for this work.
By means of the Poet Office, you. can 'send it to preach to
thousands, that have been taught to read, but' do not attend
church, and indeed have none to go to.
Am- Ministere, elders, chureh•clecers and others, who are
friendly to this work, are invited to act as agents in pro
curing subscribers. A liberal commission will be allowed.

writer of this volume has endeavoredlo depict iteharacter
purified and ennobled by early trials, not annual or mow•
gerated; a character which has RI counterpart around us,
in many a happy home.
She has • endeavored to show that although denied by
Providence those natural ties, so surest when hallowed by
true piety, she may still gether around her a circle of
loving heerts, Who reverence her name and rejoice In the
sunlight which she everywhere creates.
Let our deter Editha and Aunt lidarys learn that there
is no need of laVdoge and pet cats, to engross their alfec•
nowt, when there are to many orphaned, helpless, or
ignorant children around them; let them also learn that
there le no time for peevishness or discontent, while so
many need their affectionate services: if they would keep
their hearts green, their spirits young and joyous, let them
mingle freely with youth. ministering to their happiness,
soothing their troubles, and directing their young steps; if
they weld be saved from . gloomY discontent, let them
'frequent the homer; of the poor and suffering, and they
will learn there lessons of holy gratitude, which will make
them welcome in every household, as the blessed bestowere

The experience of, that long period of, active life, and the

of his pills.
iko convenient, so efficient, and yet so safe, did I esteem
these - pills, that for the last give yeariln practice, for the
cure of chronic diseases of whatever name, and those of
' females in particular, I have used more of them than an
