For the Pretbyterf Ittihner.
Fact Instead of Fiala.
A. 'fine looking, vigorous man stepped
into the bar-room and called for a dram.
His well filled purse attracted at once the
landlord, who became his very particular
friend, arid made buna uniVersal favorite.
Joyous and free, Conrad Called for well filled
bumpers; the best seat at the fire was his ;
his words were 'oracles; his'side of every
question was maintained honest and punc
tual; he could' run a score any length;
true, sometimes he thought the score rather
a long one, but as no one could doubt the
veracity of the landlord, this was but a
passing thought.
"I•wiSh, sir," said Conrad's wife to the
landlord'one day, " yon would discourage
my husband's visits. I care not for the
money he spends, but he comes home fool
ish, or cross, and his children notice it.
For the love of heaven, sir, do not eneour

"Oh," replied Bonitace, "you are too
anxious. My house is respectable and li
censed. Twelve good citizens have endors

A tear drOpped from the eye of the wife
wird 'Mather. "She saw too well Abet she
might as'iell appeal to death or hell to
resign their prey, as to this interested ven

not his living depend upon the drunkenness

Poor
r Conrad was t oa sted at the baras a
hen-pecked husband—tied to an apron
string. His wife was toasted as a pattern
governess and prudent manager of her
spouse. All this galled him, and, to prove
his manhood, he drank deeply—stayed at
the bar later—went home more savage, and,
of course, he was master ! He could do as
he leased—was a freeman,. and drank con
fusion` to gall' teetoilers Who filled the brain,s
of his family with_ their fanatical notions.
Money began to fail with him. His
companions would dispute with him. Ar
guing one day with a new comer ' flushed
with cash, the landlord told him to be civil,
and not raise a disturbance. His credit
failed at the bar, and he was referred to the
significant words, " No Trust," which had
before escaped his attention. He saw that
he had fallen, and vowed amendment. His
family, though sadly reduced now, encour
aged him in his reformation, and he began
to rise again. But the infernal den was
still open. The landlord, seeing his cash,
smiled again, and lured him back. Now
the struggles of conscience were weaker—
a sense of degradation seized him—he had
lost cast,the pew was given up—traders
were shy of him—his friends dropped off—
his landlord was his only friend—he stuck
to him` as long as three cents gingled in his
pocket—kindly purchased at some value
the articles he would purloin from home—
net appearing to notice that the clothing
was feminine and small. So accommodating
was he, that even when Conrad brought a
half-worn washboard, he received for it a
portion of the strongest poison. But no
human patience can endure always. 'When
no articles remained at home—when bed,
stool,- cooking utensils, all were gone—the
landlord himself called him a drunken
,brute; would trust him no longer, and when
-he annoyed him with his boisterous impor
tunity, kicked him out. To die? Oh!
no, not at all ; merely to' prevent an order
ly house from from being scandalized !
The poor wretch missed his way home,
and wag found under a snow-drift. The
coroner called a- jury—some of them his
old companions—and the
. yerdiet was ren
dered, "Found dead ; cause of death un
known:"
The landlord smiles now upon other vic
tims, and is as accommodating as ever ! If
we did not believe in a future retribution,
we would exclaim, ",Has God no lightning
to blast such a wretch ?" We do exclaim,
ES limdly'as we' ean, shun such places as
you would shun the . pit, and use every
means to close them forever.

Ingratitude to Parents.
There is a proverb that " a father can
more easily maintain six children, than six
children one father." Luther relates this ,
story
" There was once a father who gave up,
everything - to his,ehildrenis,house, his
fields, and 000ds-,—and expected that for
this his chil7lren would siipport him. But
after .he hid been .some time with higison,
the latter grew tired of him, and said. to
him: 'Father, I have had a son born ;to me
this night, and there, where your arm-ehair
stands, the cradle must come; will you not,
perhaps, go to my brother, who'has a larger
room?'
"After he had been some time with the
second son, he also grew tired of hiin, and
said : Father ' you like a warm room, and
that hurts my head; won't you go to my
brother, the . baker ? '
" The father went, and after be had been
some time. ith the third son, he found him
troublesome, and said to him : Father,
.the
people run in and out here all day, as if it
were a pigeon house, and you can, not have
your noou4lay sleep; would you not be bet
ter off at my sister Kate's, near the town
wall ? ' •
"The old man remarked how the wind
hlew, and said to himself: ' Yes, I will do
so; go and try it with my daughter.
Women have softer hearts.'
" But after he had spent some time with
his daughter,'she grew weary of him, and
Said she was always so fearful when her
father went to church, or anywhere else,
and was obliged to descend the steep stairs,
and at her sister Elizabeth's there was po
stairs to descend, as she lived on the ground
floor.
"For the sake of peace the old man as
sented, and went to his other daughter.
But after some time she, too, was tired of
him, and told him by a third person that
her house near the water was too damp for
a man who suffered with the gout, and her
sister, the grave-digger's wife, at Si. John's,
had much drier lodgings„
"The old man himself thought she was
right, and went outside the gate to his
youngest daughter, Helen. But after he
had been three days with her, her little son
said to his grandfather : Mother said yes
terday to cousin Elizabeth, that there was
no better chamber for you than such a one
as father digs.'
"These words broke the old man's , heart,
so that he sank back in his chair, and died
in a moment."
Prophecy and Its Fulfillment.
"I do not expect ever to be married,"
said a young lady of tiventy-three, some five
and twenty years ago.
" Ahl M—," replied a facetious old
uncle, in a tone of mock pathos, "if you
thought you should -not be.-inarried, you
would not sleep a wink to-night."
".I do not expect to be married," persist
ed the maiden, " and I have funned three
resolutions on the subject: First, that I
will not become soured toward the world;
secondly, that .I will not talk scandal; and
thirdly, that I will not be ashamed to . tell
my age."
The girl read her destiny with a proph
etic eye, and perhaps her''resOlutions have
been better kept than resolutionsgenerally '
"-
_
are. But then the temptation to violate
the first two has been small. The world
has proved a very good oue, presenting as
few sharp corners and as many smooth sur
faces as could reasonably have been expect
ed; and if 'the words, "It's hard work
living," have been echoed now and' then,
the ptevailing and almost constant senti
ment haS beer.: " Tile world is full of beau
ty, and love." Of course, when one's on
good terms with society, there is but little
inducement tofend one's breath in circu
lating ill repots.
As to the last resolution - there are transi
tion years, when it requires sonic little he
roisin for a woman, especially an unmarried
one, to acknowledge her age. To render a
suiTicient reason for this may be difficult ;
let it be set down to 'the account of vanity.
But when one has fairly succeeded in
weathering this stormy cape, the navigation
is plain once more. "It is more blessed to
be approaching age than to be . receding
from youth," some one has slid; and truly
it' is easier in soma cases to say, "I am for
ty-eight," than it was to say, "I am thirty
three." One even comes to hear 'the once
dreaded term "old maid" applied to herself '
withperfect equanimity. The words strike
the ear, but carry no thrill' to the heart.
The true woman feels that she can stand on
her own respectability, though she • stand,
alone. Had she inflicted a wound "on the
holy estate of niatriniony," that relation,
more frequently.abused, perhaps, than any
other of God's blessed gifts—had she done
this, by giving her hand without the pure
offering of the heart, she might well feel
that she had taken a step downward. But
standing in the unity in which God created
her, she can wrap the mantle of her own
self-respect about her, and while she; ac
knowledges that many a , sister woman has
in her keeping holy and beautiful treasures
which she has not, she will feel that4by the
'faithful discharge of her own duties, she
also performs a perfect .work, in the world.
Many and sacred may be her ties to earthly
, friends; or, if these be wanting,
"Gales from heaven, if so he Will,
Sweeter melody may wake
On the lonely mountain-rill,
Than the meeting waters make,
Who bath the Father and the Son,
May be left, but not alone." "
The grandmother's Star.
Little Annie's grandmother seemed to
regard her as a bright star given her by
heaven to cheer the evening of her life,
and everl'or • a- moment; seemed to think
PRESBYTERIAN BANNS('.---SAT URD
that one so beautiful and beloved could be
taken from her. But in 'a, day; when she I
looked not for him, bonsuiription . entered
her dwelling; and instead of laying bis
hand upon her whose frame the storms of
life had bent, and whose head had been
bleached by the suns of many Summers, he
blasted in the bud this lovely flower. Soon
it was seen that the destroyer was at work.
No remedy which wealth.could command
was wanted. But all in vain. After some
months of lingering illness, which she bore
with the fortitude and resignation of a
Christian, they one day laid the, child, still
beautiful as the opening rose of. Summer,
upon the bed. She said, "Sing for me,
grandma;' sing., I want to be. an angel.'"
They gathered around her bedside, and she
joined, hpr sweet.voice withtheirs. When,
the song was ended, with a smile of se
raphic sweetness, she liointed' iii Ward, ex
claiming, " Grandma, don't you see those
beautiful children.? Do n't you,hear them
sing ? I want to go with them !" Slid
dropped her hand, closed her eyes, and the
loving child had gone "'to be an angel, and
with the angels dwell." '

Maxims for Poultry Keepers.
Those who exPect to be successful in
raising or =paging ,p9ultry, or hope to
make it a paying part of farm business,
should observe a few simple rules which
will save them from much disappointment
and trouble.
I. It is not advisable to keep large num
bers of hens together, or go into the poultry
business on a large scale. It is found im
practicable and unprofitable—besides they
cannot be kept`in so healthy;a condition'as
where but few are together.
2: It is impossible to keep hens to ad
vantage without having a suitably and
properly arranged home:for-tlkejr accommo
dation. This is as necessary as that a
farmer, should, have a stable for his cattle,
or a dwelling for lais '
- 8. In connexion with the house, a poul
try-yard shouldbe provided, which should
contain a grass plot, gravel, some quantities
of slacked lime, and dry ashes. '
4. The inside of the poultry house
should be whitewashed twice a year or
oftener, 'which will serve to keep it free
from vermin, and the hens will be kept in
better condition.
5. Pure water in sufficient quantities
must be, provided several times• a day, in
Winter and Summer.-
6. Feed should.be given at regular peri
ods. To fatten fowls, they must not .be
allowed to run •at! large.—Country Gentle-
,Shoeing - Rena.
A friend of ours,boarding in the, country
found hiS hostesS one morning busily en
gaged in making numerous small woolen
bags of singular shape. Upon inquiry he
was informed that they were shoes for hens,
to prevent them from scratching. The.
lady:
lady state(' that it had been her practice for
years to shoe her hens, nnd save her gar
den. These "shoes," (I believe they are
not patented,) were of woolen,
made some
what of, the shape of a fowl's foot with ease,
after which it is closed with a needle and
sewed tightly on, extending about an inch
up the lei,. Our friend observed that some
of: the
,biddies, possibly conceited with
their new honors, appeared to tread' as
though walking, on eggs- T particularly was
this the case when front the width`of the shoe
one would eotiediVethat tlibir toeSemight
be a little pinched.
This' is not a bad idea. We have seen
hens shod before, and with good results.; it
is not necessary, :however, to make g regu
lar shoe• for them; even a piece of cloth
embracing their foot and secured to the leg,
the bag being large enough to allow their
toes to expand in it, will answer the purpose
very well. By such' an appliance, ; lien;
yardsand tight fences are unnecessary, the
hens are allowed their liberty all Summer,
and will lay better for it, and even the gar
den and field will be kept ciean.from many
worms, bugs, flies and other vermin that
injure'vegetation. But for the scratching,
hens do little harm and ranch good on cul
tivated grounds.—Rural Intelligence.
The Crops.
The London Times prophesies a famine,
the season having been unpropitious not
only in England, but throughout Western
Europe. Should the prognostications of
the '/Vmes prove true, _present appearances
lead us to believe that the harvests of the
New World will be arnple, to supply any
defteieneles of the Old. Our exchanges
furnish most encouraging reports in regard
to the crops. WithAlMlX.ception of Ver
mont, where they are .suffermg , ,severely
from long-continued drought, all the dif
ferent parts of the country bid`fair to yield
a bountiful harvest. Letters from Minne
sota inform, us that the fFmers ar% merry
over the prospect before them. From
Georgia we also hear cheering news. Corn
never looked better. Cotton promises an
abundant yield. Wheat is the least plenti
ful crop, but of a very superior quality.
Through Central New-York-where the grass
- crop for years past his been more or less
short; every kind of 'fodder crop , is most
promisifig. Many farmers who eut'seareely
a ton of hay per acre during the last two'
or three . seasons will this season mit'three,
and that of an excellent quality. :In Che
nango, Madison, .and Otsego Counties the
ryuand oats have done finely.-The *eat'
pests of the farmers in that region' are -the`
white daisy'and the Canada thistle. Du.:

and heart-sore to other agricultural dis
tricts of "the State.
Lye for Trees.
James Jenkins, Hancock. County, Illinois,
writes as follows :
"Last Spring, after making soap, I took
the lye left in the kettle, after taking off
the soap, and washed the bodies of three
apple trees, and liking the effect, this Spring
I washed fifteen more. It causes the old
bark to scale off, and gives the trees a
thrifty appearance. It' kills all small
sproutethat may be on the trunks of trees
or about the roots, and kills all grass upon
which it falls. It will not do to use on'
small trees, without first making it very
weak.",

--- %Who are the %%Sea ;,
They are principally a sect of the Mo
hammedans, existing only in Syria.. Their
name is derived from Darazi or Dursi,who,
as early as 1019, came as a missionary;
to them from an offshoot of the Moslem I
stock. Singularly enough, the Druses
avow any,belies in the peculiar doctrines
of the,xnan whose name they bear, and do
not hesitate to call him a heretic, and to,
look Upon the title of " Druse " as a Stig
ma. , They, themselves, trace their origin
as a.religious sect, to Hamsa, a wandering
fanatic, who,' in 1020, persuaded Rakern,
a Caliph"pf- , Egypt, lo declare, himself a
manifestation of Goir. 'Although the Caliph
was soon aisaasinated, liamsa continued to,
propagate his theory inSyria, and with one
of his followers, Moktana, - Bolir-eddin r
wrote a sabred book embodying his- tdich
ings. Addording' to his intention only the
Drug priesthood were to see this volume,
and no relation was to be made until, the
second adv nt Hakem; who' was to appear
on earth 'with his•maSter Ramsay this
being, probably,' an idea suggested by
Christian
,dogmas. a This secresy about the
sacrid writhig of Hamsa was not, however,
observed, aid copies of the works are now
in the great libraries at Paris, Vienna, 'the
VatiCan; Leyden ' , und the Bodican Lirary,
at:Oxford: It has been translated into
Pre,nch; from which it appears 'that the
characteristic. dogmas of the sect is tile
Unity' of God's being: Indeed, the Druses
call theniselves Unitarians. They maintain
that God. is incomprehensible, inexorable,
pure,the essence.-of true life, and can be
knoWn to his accepted children through
human manifestations - only. Ten times has
the Deity thus - appeared in Africa and Asia,
the last manifestation having been r that
the person of Hakem, in Egypt.
,Ha.kem
left the eare 'of the faithful to five princi
pal Ministers, Who are 'to direct 'them' till
his return. Chief of these minister's is
Hanisi, who enjoys the high title of" Uni
versal Intelligence." And here is inserted
in the Druse faith—to give -it-: the popular
nanfe—a doOtrine so "much like that-held
by Chri'stians'that it pan be, no mere coin
eidence,. but rather proves the imitative
pewers'of the' founders of the Drum the
ology. They declare the first-born of the
Deity was a spirit of intelligence, which
was first incarnated in Hamsa, who is the
same As the. Christ of the Arian theory.
To Hamsa was confined the creation of the
world, : an&from.laiin.comes all wisdom, and
truth, while, through him only does the
Lord communicate ,with the, human family.
This is simplYlthe CO - du:pied version of the
great Christian doctrines of incarnation and
mediation. There is a complicated system
of priesthood maintained by the • Druses,
who, like the'followerS' of Mohammed, em
body in their religion many of the tradi
tions and personages of the Old Testament.
There is a Satan, or. Ismail as he is Called,
who first introduced sin into, the world'
In regard' to free will, the DrUsSeS' the
ology maintains ''
that the length of every
man's life is (foreordained, but not his in
dividual:acts. They believe in the transmi
gration of souls, and say that the soul of
Ismail was once in John the. Baptist, and
'still earlier in Elijah, while that of Harnsa
once dwelt in . the body of Jesus. Yet
while acknowledging that Jesus once ex
isted, they do not think that he was in any
MaYP.W.494,PB the - individuall39-0- which
lived in him and in many others did not
receivealyine, p`ii*er it readied the
body ofillapisa. The DruseideJnbi-extend
their transmigration doctrines so far as to
allow that human souls ever exist in the
forms of animals. They. ,think. that =the'
souls of 131.11 go, on inhabiting different
bodies--with the exception-of a very few,
whose excellence permits them' to exert a
pure spirit--until the resurrection day,
when the faithful will be resolved - for eter
nity

ruty into spiritual beings, butt e by far, the
gLe:ater pprtion
If the Druse,s4ived,up:o the seven com
mandments ina which; they express their
moral laws, they would not -be so dreaded
and so cruel a people; for murder, theft,
covetousness and cruelty are prohibited as
special criMes,•and chastity, honesty, meek
ness and :mercy are regarded as, high vir
tuest—so'high, unfortunately, that the-pres
ent Proses generally cannot reach them.
the men have but one wife each, the forin
of government is patriarchal, different
tribes having a' Sheik, and agriculture is
carefully attended to. No marriage,s are
eentractedloutside of the sect, and'the Drn
ses adhere tenaciously to their religious
traditions. All the male population is
trained:from youth to serve in war, and, the
Druses have more than once revolted against
the Turkish G-overnment, which holds nom
inal sway over them. Yet,.of late years,
they have been regarded as a pe,aceful and
quiet people, and were disabusing their
neighbors ofthb traditional opinions as te
their ferocity and cruelty, until the great
Christian massacre of, this Summer proves
that their unenviable notoriety, was - not

'With so manyfeatures in their own ap
proxinaatingithe..Chriitian'religion, it ap
pears sornewhati strin4 that the Druses
should manifest such fiendish barbarity as
they have recently done. But to them,
strong monotheists as they are; the doctrines
of polytheisni are peculiarly repulsiv - e. • In
the'etremenies of the Greek and Roman
Churches they perceive what they„think to
be a worship of more- than one God; :they
do not comprehend the relations of the
'three persons in the Trinity, and especially
fail to understand the interpretation of the
material symbols held in such veneration
in those , churches. The Protestants of
Syria, whose religion does not present these
features, would' probably share better if the
Druses understood more about them; but
Protestants, as well as the Greeks and
Catholics, all come under the general head
of Christians and as such fall beneath the
indiscriminating fury of those fanatics.
It does not appear, however, that the
Druses are the only'tribes engaged in the
Massacres. Arab Muisulmans are equally
The cause of the present
trouble; most probably arises from the old
feuds which for' centuries have been waged
between the Druses and the Maronites.
The latter people are native Christians,
followers of a monk called Maron, who lived
in the sixth century.
In 1215; they effected a union with the
Church of Rome, from ;'which they have
never viably differed, though their spir
itual head is called the Patriarch of An

A ',Tourney lJnder Paris.
A correspondent Of a Swedish journal
furnisheS an interesting account , of a sibr
texranean ,voyage
,made through one of,the
admirably constructed.sewers of
The boat which conveyed 'the party" was
reached by descending a flight of steps to
the depth of about forty lve .feet. The
beat, a flat bottomed affair, Was lighted by
four lamps. The, sewer is, an archway,
fifteen feet high anclof equal breadth, with
a, ditch or canal about ten feet wide, where
in all the dirt and filth of Paris- is carried
away..,.On:the sides, are sidewalks, which
together are, about four feet, wide. The
whole is, built of beautiful white sand stone,
and. is kept remarkably . neat,and clean. No
stench or bad,smell was preceptible., The
denser portion of the filth is•carried . away
through large drains beneath sidewalks.
The sidewalks are excellent and exhib
ited. no signs of dampness, while the walls
ofthe archway are, kept whitewashed and
are at all times white, as the ,driven snow,
The structure possesses the properties of
an • immense speaking tube, the workmen
being able to . converse at , the distance of
two miles Nut each other. The echo is
very strong and lasting. The, fahrie, is
said' to be built, after a model , of the cata
combs of itome, aided by all, the latest im
provements. On both sides, at, - about two
hundred, yards distant from
,one another,
are openings, through which the workmen
can, ascend, by means of permanent iron
ladders in case a sudden rain storm 'should
cause; the water to rise o7er , the, sidewalks,
which is, however, of rare occurrence.
The contents of the sewer, of course,
flow, into the river, Seine, and . the current
is sufficient to, carry along the boat, used
with considerable velocity. r Large rreser
voirs are constructed, at, intervals,, iuto
which the water can be turned for a short
time, in ;case it:Shmild . be necessary to have
the canal dry , for a little while.
The whole, work was completed in two
years. Beside the, main canal, there are
many minor ales constructed under the
principal streets, all of which can be made
to communicate with one another. These
admirable underground works are accessi
ble from the Louvre, the Tuileries, and
from all the barracks, and should the Par
isians take b a notion to barricade-the streets
in any portion of the city the Imperial
Government might, at short notice, and
-without 'any person'. being aware of it,
transport troops, and, if there is time to
make use of the reservoirs, so Can cavalry
also be transported the same way.
There is an end to shooting on, the sol
diers from the windows, and a revolution.
in Paris will Soon only be remembered
among things that 'have beeu never to oc
cur again. Through these underground pas

Singular Substitution
The followino• interestina story is told
by Oleig, in his interesting "Life of Wel
lington." We should scarcely credit it, if
it, were not vouched for by the "Iron
Duke * " himself:
Referrini , to the advance from the Ebro
,to the Douro, the Duke stated that he
"got famously taken in on that occasion."
The troops had taken to plunderino• a
good 'deal. It was necessary to stop it, and
I issued an order stating that the first Juan
taken in the act Should be hanged upon the
spot. One day, just as' we` were sitting
down to dinner, ttiree. - men were brought to
the door of the tent, by the, provost. The
case aeaiiist them was clear,' and I had
, nothing for it but to-desire, that they should
be taken away and hanged in some place
where they might be seen by the whole col
.umn in its march the; next day. I had a
good many guests on that occasion, and
among the rest I think Lord Nuaent.
They seemed' dreadfully shocked, and could
not eat their dinner. I didn't like it Much
myself; but, as them, I had no time
to indulge my feelings--I'must do my duty.
Well the dinner went off rather gravely
and next mornine, sure enou t lh, three men
in uniform were seen hanging from the
branches cif a tree close to the highroad.
It was a terrible, example, and-produced the
desired effect—there was no more plunder
ing. But you maTguess what my aston
ishment ias, when, some months after
wards, I learned that one of my staff took
counsel withlOr. Hume; ainfas three men
had just died in the hospital, they hung
them up, and let the three Culprits return
to their regiments.
" Were n't yoii very angry r was the
uestion.
41, Well, I suppose I= was at. first; but as
I had no wish. to take the poor fellows'
-lives, and only wanted the example ' and'as
the example had the desired effect, my
anaer soon died out, and I confess to you
that I am Very glad. now that the three lives
were spared."
