When we comprehend the fullness of -what death will do for us, in all our out- look, dying is triumphing. Nowhere is there so fair a sight, so sweet a prospect, as wheel a young soul is passing away out of life and time through the gate of death—the rosy, the royal, the golden, the pearly gate of death. As I grow older and come nearer to death, I look upon it more and more with consplacent soy, and out of every tonging I hear God say, "Oh, trusting, hungering one come to me!" What the other life will bring I know not, only that I shall awake in God's likeness and see him as he is. Beat on then, 0 heart, and yearn for dying! 1 have drunk at many a foun- tain, but thirst came again; I ,have fed at many a bounteous table, but hunger returned; I have seen many bright and lovely things, but while I gazed their lustre faded. There is nothing here that can give me rest; but when I be hold thee, 0 God, I shall be satisfied. Don't mope. Be young as long as you live. Laugh a good deal. Frolic every day. A low tone of mind is un- healthy. A lawyer who works ten months in the year and then for tw-o months amuses himself will last twice as long as if he took no recreation. - Humor usually tends toward stood - nature, and everything that tends to- ward good nacure tends tovvard good grace. If laughing's a sin, I don't see what the Lord lets so many funny things hap- pen for. Having wit and buoyancy Of spirits, let them flash out in the serviced religion. Don't consider it necessary to rake them up and hide them. A mother and a dog are the only two things in the world that seem to have absolutely disinterested love. I think love grows between husband and wife by expression of affection. I know there is a stately dignity in vogue. Husband and wife sit over against each other like those great statues df Memnon in Egypt; there they are, vast, stony, and hard. You that live long enough will see women vote, and when you see women voting you will see less lying, less brutal- ity, and more public spirit, heroism, and romance in public affairs. Robert Burns—a true poet, made not by the schools, brought up with no ex- ternal eulture or assistance. He came as a flower comes in spring, We say that he was a man of the people. No! He was far above the people, He Was ordained to be an interpreter of God to his kind then and forevermore. • Of all the American novelists who have passed away, the author of "The House of the Seven Gables seems to me the greatest. Grant had the patience of Fate and the force of Thor. He has left to mem- ory only such weaknesses as connect him with humanity and such virtues as will rank him among heroes. Though slow, Abraham Lincoln was sure. A thousand men could not make him plant his foot before he was ready; ten thousand could not move it after he had set it down. God raised up a Cromwell to wrest Liberty from the King's hands and set it firmfy apon its feet before the nations of the earth. Charles Sumner was a Republican statesman because he sought the wel- fare of all, and not of a privileged class, We drink, not to gratify the palates but for-& business purpose. That beine the case, we may begin with the milder beverages, just as we begin our fire with pine shavings, not only because we can light them so easily, but also because we want them to set on fire something more solid. And. wine is a step stone to brandy. Beer is a step stone the other way. It does not lead up to brandy, but it leads down to clrunk and beastly drunk. Intemperance is the fertile source of crime. Have you done anything 'about it. Whether the Africans are an inferior race or not, it is evident that our des- tiny in some respects is bound up with them, and the study of theie interests is the study of our salvation. This Af- rican race, in the Omnipotent hand, may be the instrument for our de- struction, if we are to be destroyed. They may cling to our feet a,nd entangle us in their final miseries.—Selected. whar he fotch from Richmun, an' Sam he looked kinder skeert, he did, an' sez ',hp 'Boys, ain't we jes played h—r-V ot 11 r- he n' h, d-.

The Dead Line. The minister does well to dread he "dead line." Why is it, we are ask d, that men want old lawyer § and old doc- tors, but young ministers?

It is the business lawyers and. doctors to held us back; ministers to push us forward.

Mr. Beecher had not passed dead line, though he was over seve nor had Bishop Simpson, nor has Spurgeon, nor Dr. Taylor, nor Dr. II nor Phillips Brooks, though they are over fifty. The man whose youth perpetually renews as the eagles, w age is full of good, who carries a reser- r voir of cheer in his heart, who sends ou away from his presence with new fath, hope, and love, is always in request; people do not look in his family Bible to see how old he is. • A Sheet of Paper.

His chief joy in life, however, was in his nine children, though it was no light task to s-upport them all. His breinwoulda have reeled and his heart sunk had he not trusted in his heavenly Father, when he thought of the number of jackets, stockings, and dresses they would need in the course of a year, and of the quantities of bread and potatoes they would eat. His house, too, was very small quar- tets for the many beds and cribs, to say nothing of the- room required for the noise and fun 'which the merry nine made. But the father and mother managed well, and the house was a pat- tern of neatness and order. One day there came a guest to the house. As - they sat at dinner, the stranger, looking at the hungry chil- dren about the table, said compassion- ately, "Poor man,lwhat a cross you have to bear !" "1? A cross to bear?" asked the father wonderingly; " what do you Mean ?" • "Nine children, and seven boys at that !" replied the stranger, adding, bit- terly, "I have but two,and each of them is a nail in my coffin." "Mine are not," said the teacher with prompt decision. "How does that happen ?" asked the guest, , " Because I .have taught them the noble art of obedience. Isn't that so, children ?" "Yes," cried the children. "And you obey me willingly ?" The two girls laughed roguishly, but the seven youngsters shouted : "Yes, dear father, truly." "Then the father turned to the guest and said : "Sir, if death were to come in at the door, waiting to take one of my children, I would say"—and here he pulled -off his velvet cap and hurled it at the door—"Rascal, who cheated .you into thinking that I had one too many ?"
