f*ut on your beautiful garments,
O Ultra* earth , -and rest !
The go.il is won and the toll Is done.
And now yon may don your beat,
Yonr robe of purple and eoarlet,
Your tassels and plumes of gold,
The misty sheen of your veil oi preen
And your mantle’s crimson fold.
0 earth, co glad and so fruitful!
O nature, so bravo and true!
1 would that we were us wise as ye
In the work wo havo to do!
w» loiter and waste— we sow not,
Or eeatter our seeds In vain,—
Fer the stony field must he wrought to yield
Ita treasure of golden grain.
“Put on your beautiful garments,
O tolling soul, and rest!"
Faint heart or mine 1 to that call divine
Be all thy powers addressed;
Sewing beside all waters,
Faithful iu that which Is least,
The service that shall be rost!
And the plaudit won of that word, “Well
done V’
And the Master's “Oemo, yo blest!”
0 earth ! In your sweet fruition
Reiolcc and be glad !—■'but tills,
Tho joy of a soul that has reached its goal,
Is a deeper, holier tdlss.
What Mmll They Call It?

[From the Woman's Journal. 1
Editor* Woman* Journal: Your cor
respondents are having trouble about a
name for a new garment. For two years,
except in hot weather, when I „ wantod oh
little covering ah possible on shoulders or
Anna, I have worn ilia article tboy wish
to designate. Liko old King Georgo with
the apple in tho dumpling, every one
who has aeon it has asked, “How do you
get in ?” The frequency of the question
named it for rue, and I call it a “gotiu.
1 do get into it without difficulty, and,
once in, am oovered from tho wrists to
tho nock and ankles, and have no uiolass
drapery. Then, with a drilling waist,
cut aomewhat like corsets and furnished
with broad straps, resting just whop a
man's suspenders rest, and divided in
front, as they are, a bit of tape on each
aide at the lower edge, to which I attach
robber stocking suspenders, which tie
with tapes to loops on the stockings, 1
am ready for skirts, which 1 pin to tho
waist, preferring pins to buttons.
Thus all my clothes rest just whore
men have theirs supported, i. e. t on the
shoulders above tho joint, leaviug this
free. With skirts that never come bolow
the instep, ami are not unnecessarily
wide or heavy, this dress is as nearly
healthful as the laws of society will per
mit.
As for tho undergarment, if othor folks
are going to adopt it, it should have a
name by which it can be generally known.
Any one is weloome to my name, and I
Am willing to adopt another, but uot
“chemiloou.” The word is ouo of the
ugliest I have ever seen. It is too long,
and the ending is anggostive of horrible
sounds beard near louoly lakes. I have
lain at midnight in a lonely cabiu, listen
ing to tho booting of loons and owls, tho
bellowing of boars and howling of wolves,
all mingled in hideous chorus, and I ob
ject to the introduction of anothor loon
into the language. If wo want to keep
near our old naiue, why not call the thing
a chem ? This would bo a distinctive Ap
pellation, but if a longer word is wanted
add some short syllable, for instance,
“Cheiulin.”
Iam, Jane G. Swissbelm.
The Gbant-Honoke Wedding. — The
long illusion vail of the bride was caught
gracefully on the left side of her head by
a cluster of orange blossoms, with trailing
vine falling gracefully down the length of
the vail to the bottom of the train. The
bridal dress was of rich cronm satin, tho
front widths entirely plain, with a pleat
ing one-half yard iu depth on the train.
Above this was a rich castellated trim
ming, which gave tho upper part of tho
skirt the effect of being a separate and
falling over flounce. Tho corsage was
made high, with tiny basque waist, a Ma
rio Antoinette sloove drooping just be
low the elbow. Over the wholo was a
rich lace over-dresH, composed of Dnchoss
point, manufactured in RruRsela expressly
for tho bride. Tho lace over-waist formed
A jaunty jacket of tho “Point Duchess,
with a V nook nml cut-away front, leaving
the satin vost just visible underneath.
The overskirt was of oxquisite texturo and
voluminous proportions, and gracefully
draped at the left side aud fastened with
orange blossoms. A mouchoir of tiro finest
design, in exquisite pearls, and a necklaoe
to match, completed this rich marriage
oostumo.
is very popular dowu here, as I find all
her works are, and the Indy lioreeP, from
her exclusiveness, is looked upon as some
thing better than the common sort.
Haw la Vet a Wife.
A California oorrespoudeut of the Now
York Timm shows bow John Chinaman
manages tho matrimonial lottery. Here
it is:
A Chinaman in want of a wife acrapes
together his wages and sends the nmonnt
home, generally to bis father or mother,
with tho order for a wifo, and they g<>
into the market and make the bent bar
gain they can, according to the money to
bo invented. Sometimes the amount u
small, and a really tlr»t-eh**N aiticlo can
not be had for the sum, but tho old wo-
man generally does her best and ships
over tho woman consigned to her son,
who meets her at the steamer with his
bill »f lading, pays freight and charges,
and takos his property. * * *
If any of your readers want to know
the price of the real useful wife of this
sort, of reliable color, warranted to wash,
(Mondays) I can inform them, as my Ce
lestial, Ah Ham, who dusts out my office,
has recently imported one. Hain sent
money’ to his mother, aud in duo course
of tiiuo the purchase arrived, and K»m
brought her down for my inspection.
She was as ngly a Chinese woman as 1
oversaw. 1 said, “Bam, not handsome,
eh?’’ Ham says, “Not handsome much ;
handsome gal cost heap money, and all
time kick tip—bobbery.” Sam had the
correct idea of it, and was widely content
with a plain article, that was most likely
to stay with him. Ham informed me that
the original cost, with freight and charges,
was $500—all it was worth, if I am
judge* of that species of goods, gained
from a mild experience.
IIOIHKMTIC RECIPE*.
Pol I ten cbm Katrnordlnnrj.
When the “To Deuin" for the victory
was celebrated, Thiers and MaoMahou
both attended the solemn ceremony in
the church at Versailles. Two arm-chairs
had been placed near tho high altar, one
for Madame, tho wifo of tho Marshal, the
other for M’mo Thiers, wife of tho Presi
dent of the Republic. M’me MacMuhou,
born Duchess of Costree, understood her
position, and knowing that the right was
the place of honor, modestly seated her
self on the left. While the Duchess was
still kneeling. M’me Thiers arrived.
“Dear madame, your chair is on the
other side!”
“You are too good, madame ! Really,
I cannot consent.”
“Take it, I beg !”
“Since you desire it ; but really yon
embarrass wo ! Aud M nie MncMuhon
rose from her knows and betook herself to
the right aud continued her prayers,while
M’me President Thiers knelt ostentatious
ly at the left. Tho ceremony over, M’ine
MacMahon expressed her acknowledge
ments for the courtesoy of M ine Thiers.
“You have nothing to thank me for,”
the Utter replied. “You did uot know,
of course, that when 1 came iu you were
occupying wy place’." .
“Your place ! On the loft, M mo Presi-
deute ? ”
“Certainly, M’meMarsBI. The Queens
of France always placed themselves «t tho
left of the altar, it wus tho only place,
indeed, where the Queen did not seat her
self on tho right: it is in order that tho
Queen might be first under tho hand of
the Bishop os he turns to give the beue-
^’I’he’grstitudo of M’me MacMahon, horn
s Costree, for this lesson inroyal eti.juelto
which the daughter of M. Dosuo had con
descended to give her maybe imagined.
[ Utiural Reclus, in the tlaltuyfor OH.
Plum Pudding —Two eggs, «; craokei
;» pints of sweet milk, a piece of butter
tho size of an egg, 1 cup of raisins, a lit
tle salt and nutmeg.
Hakki* Indian Pudding.—Four c<gg «, 1
quart of sweet milk, f> largo toaapoousful
of Indian meal; nutmeg and sugar to the
taste. Roil the milk and scald the Indian
meal iu it, then let it cool before adding
the eggs. Ruko three-quarters of an
hour. Eot with butter or sweet sauce.
ArrLE Tartlets- —Peel (J largo apples,
boil to u pulp, mix with sugar, cloves and
lemon-peel to taste; lei this mixture
stand till quito cold, then mix with it 2
ounces of dried currants. Make a light
puli' paste, obtain a largo flat baking-tin,
and pour lira mixture in, cover it with tin*
p stry, and hukn half au hour in very hot
oven.
Velvet Cake. —One quart of new, un
skimmed milk (half ortuiu and half niilli
is preferable), 4 eggs (white and yolk*
beaten separately, and very stiff), 1 teas
poonful salt, rice Hour. Mix the beaten
yelks with the milk, add the salt, then
riuo flour to make a batter thick as that
for flannel cakes; lastly, whip in the stiff
ened whites very lightly, and bake imme
diately.
To Stew Cold Corned Reef.-—Cut
about four pounds of lean froui a cold
round of beef, that (antes but little of
salt. Lay it iu a stew-pan, with a quarter
of a peck of tomatoes quartered, nnd the
same quantity of ochre sliced ; also, two
small onions peeled und sliced, aud two
ounces of fresh butter rollod in flour.
Add a teaspoouful of whole popper-corns,
no salt, aud four or live blades of mace.
Place it over a steady but moderate lire,
('over it closely, and lot it niew throe or
four hours. Tho vegetables should he
eutirely dissolved. Serve it up hot.
EriouiiF.AN Coffee.—There is such a
thing as science even iu coffee making,
und tho Preucb understand it butter, per
haps, than any other people iu the world.
They cun combine different coffees, like
the parts of a tiuo wine, to produce cer
tain rare bouquets, or aromas, for the
epicure. Not more than half a pound of
coffee should be roasted at a time for do
mestic use ; it should be ground only just
before going iuto the pot ; au ounce
should bo allowed for every three cups *,
iu its mixture with tho white of egg to
clear it thoro should ho some warmth be
fore tho water is added, aud it should
never bo allowed to roach a boil. Ob
serve those rules which uro based upon
scientific reasons, aud you may make
from nn inferior coffeo-lioan a beverage
far superior to what generally goes by
that name. It will never ho black nor
bittor, and can bo kept indefinitely with
out staling.
Fou Furniture.—Make a mixture of
three parts linseed oil, and oue part spir
its of turpentine. It not only covers the
disfigured surface, but restores furniture
to its original color, and leaves a lustre
upon the surface. Put on with a woolen
cloth, aud rub with woolen.
How to Roil Eggs.—Put the required
number of eggs into a saucepan, con
tainiug boiliug water sufficient to cover
them, and put it in a place on the range
where it will keep boiling hot, but not
boil. Let them stand seven luiiiutoK.
When takeu up they will bo fouud thickly
nnd deliciously jollied throughout, and
perfectly digestible. It is a much better
and more cortain way than boiling them.
Another method is, to let them boil gently
for thirty minutes. This is un excellent
plan for persons who like bard boiled
eggs, or for invalids, ns eggs cooked for
this length of time cun lie easily digested
by tho most delicate stomachs.

Who composed the following descrip
tion of the Rihlo w« may never know. It
found in Westminster Abbey, name
less and dateless, but nevertheless it is

the table—tolls him how to rule, nnd her
how to manage.
It entails honor to parents and enjoins
obedience to children.
It prescribes and limits the sway of the
sovereign, the rule of the ruler and the
authority of the inaHfer; commands the
subjects to honor and the servant to obey,
and tho blessings and tho protection of
the Almighty to all that walk by this rule.
It gives directions for weddings and
burials.
it,, remises food nnd raiment, and lim
its tho use of both.
It points out a faithful and eternal
guardian to the departing husband and
father; tolls him with whom to have his
fatherless children, nnd whom his widow
is to trust—and promises a father to the
former, and a huslmnd to tho latter.
It teaches a man to sot his house in or

points u dowry for his wife, and entails
the rights of the first born, and shows
how ttio young branches shall tie loft.
It defends tho light of all, and reveals

“CnrtU,” of the Chicago Inler-Ucean,
writing from Mobile, Bays of a faTorite
Southern authoress: Among the famous
denixenuof tho town is Augusta J. l.»u«,
the author of “St. Elmo. ’ She u Mr».
Wilson now, and lives in a beautiful little
chateau in the suburbs. Her husbaud is
a banker of wealth and influence, and she
a plain, unassuming lady, about thirty-
five years old, 1 should think. From her
appearance, one would imagine that she
had wrestled with Confucius, the Sanscrit
philosophers, and the ancieut Greeks. I
meant to have asked her how she comes
to know bo much as she does about thing**
of which everybody else is ignorant; but
I couldn’t—I was afraid it would be nu-
pudent. Imagine a tall, slender lady, of
dark complexion, black hair, and eyes of
au indifferent color, features plain, but
full of animation and intelligence, and
manners that are at once unobtrusive and
attractive, and you have this De8tael of
the South. She is seen but little in soci
ety, and seldom entertains any but inti
mate friends; but the poor know her well,
and the honpitalH and institutions for the
homeleuH and friendless find in her a local
Florenoe Nightengale. During the war
she was very active in the Southern hos
pital^ and, it is aaid, gave the larger por
tion of the proflU of her novel, “llacarie,"
which was pubiittbed iu 1H03, for the ben
efit of the oick aud wouuded eoldiera.
Au Aerlnl
The New York Sun Hays:
Monsieur E. Caillou, of this city, has
entered a caveat in tho Patent Office for
the aerial velocipede. Tho model, which
in about liftoen feet in leugth, ho keepa
in a back room iu his Uoukc.
There are two small balloons of equal
Hize to balance the weight of tho aero
naut, leaving him free to change Iiih posi
tion iu atjy direction by menus of ma
chinery. 'Jhose two balloons are cou
rt nod by framework instead of network
and cording. M. Oaiilou says Hint the
confining of the gas in a framework will
kiep the velooipede more steady than net
ting. The seat is between and below tho
two balloons and behind the main shaft
of the maoliinory, which cau be rotated
by either tho hands or the feet of the
operator, n treadle and a crank being
both provided, while a small driving
wheel to the right enables him to reverse
the motion easily. The entire hull of
the aerial vo-sol i« a light framework,which
preserves the relative position of the op
erator aud tho two halloous unchanged.
Doing, thus seated in a coutrivauco which
when loaded has hardly auy greater spe
cific gravity than the air, the velocipedist
propels himself in auy direction by meane
of three wheols of canvass stretched over
a light framework, aud fashioned similar
ly to tho screw of a propeller. The
wheels are to work in connection with a
rudder which is at tho front of the whole
tuachiue. The rudder consists of two
parts, oue of which is perpeudietdar, und
is worked laterally, guulmg to the right
or left, and the other is horizoutsl, aud
guide** up or down. Both are governed
by cords. Ouo of the three screw wheels
is above the head of the velocipedist,
and the two others at his right and left
hands. They are work ini together by
means of a cog-wheel connecting tho two
shafts, aud one motion ia to seud the
velocipede forward aud upward, while
the reverse sends it downward aud back
ward.
The second and third points covered by
M. Oalllon’s caveat are the upper wheel*,
which raises the velocipede, nnd the double
rudder in the fron*. The side wheels are
similar to M. Caillon's machine exhibited
in the Paris Exposition of 184*7, for which
the Emperor Nupoleou ia saitl to have giv
en 30,000 francs.
—A fellow at Des Moines, Is., appa
rently very drunk, staggered against a
plate-glass ahow window and amaahad it,
and then hurried off. The shopman and
his darks followed and aaized him, took
a $100 bill from his pocket, and, after
deducting the prioe of the glasa, stuffed
the change in his wallet and aet him
adrift. The $100 proved to be counter
feit, and the shopman, horrified, set the
polio® on the fellow’a track, aud waa sr-

Jacob's Well.
Dr. Harvey, in n lottor from Kumnria,
thus describe** Jacob's Well:
1'aNsing the ancient. Labniiuh and Oonea,
both still important towns, wo entered
the broad, rich plain III Mukna, covered
with immense fields of grain, and at noon
of tho second day from Jerusalem reached
Jacob's Well. Here, rich and well-
watered, is “the parcel of ground which
Jacob bought of the sons of Humor, iht
father of Shoehorn,” and which tho patri
arch when dying bequeathed to Joseph
A splendid church was built over the well
in the fourth century, which tho Moslems
afterward destroyed. Its ruins rcinnin,
but tho debris lots fallen on tho arch
above. Through this a hole has boon
dug to tho mouth, now six or eight foot
below tho snrfaco. The well is deep, at
prssuut measuring sovcnly-fivo feet, but
ongiuully much more. It is circular, nine
fact in diameter, aud said to be cut its
wholo distance through solid rook. When
we were there it contained no water. The
curb is gone, it is evidently fast filling up
with falling atoms nnd earth, nnd the
place looks forbidding and forsaken.
Yet on this spot there is littlo doubt tli u
the patriarch dwtIt, and through all the
ages of Israel's history descendants drank
of the well he gave tiuJi ; and here our
Lord set nt mid-day and uttered bis over-
ttuuiiorahlo words, respecting the Water
of Life to the woman of Samaria. The
general scone remaiua tho same iu the
richness and beauty of its surroundings,
but tho dilapidated condition of the well

The Millennium.
W* are uskod our opinion of the Mil
lennium. Wo have given that so often—
and sometimes so much at large—in the.
Advocate, tlmt we can only now just state
that tho word millennium means a thou
sand years. The phrase a thousand years
is used in four places of Scripture (viz.
Pa. xc. -t; Eool. vi. t»: 2 Pot. iii. 8 ; Hev
xx. 2-7) for a long, indeliuito period. In
Kev. xx. it designates that happy period
which shall precede the second coming of
Christ to raise tho dead, burn tho earth,
and judge the world. That period will
differ from the present only in this, that
Christianity will he spread nil over the
earth, nnd men will be gouorally brought
under its saving influence. They will be
boru in sin as they are now—they
repent und believe the gospel—experi
ence justification, regeneration, and
sanctificution, by the Holy Spirit, as they
do now—they will have nlfliotion, though
perhaps not as severe us now—they wil
die and go to heaven us they do now. li
will he the kiugdotu of grace on earth
and not the kingdom of glory in heaven.
No corporeal Messiah will come down
from hosveu to reigu upon the earth—no
martyrs or any other saints will be raised
up from their graves to reigu with him at
Jerusalem or auy where else. These are
day-dreams of visiouary fanatics.—('hri*.

—A gentleman was describing to Doug
las Jerrold the story of his courtship nnd
marriago—how his wife bad been hr*night
up in a oonvent au*l was on the point of
taking the veil when bis presence burst
upon her enraptured sight, nud she ac
cepted him as her husband. Jerrold lis
tened to the end of (lie story, and then
quietly remarked: “8ho simply thought
you better than /d/a.”
