Beloved faces faintly set In halos of my tendereat thought. Immortal eyes whose radiauce yet With yearning human love is fraught, Dear lips whose kisses, sweet and slow, Drop, like a balm, on mortal pain.

REPUBLIC OF CHILI. Capita), Santiago; population, 180,000. President: Senor Anibal Pinto. El ected 1876. A State of South America of Spanish origin, lying between the Andes moun tains and the shores of the Pacific ocean, including Patagonia, west of the Andes extending coastwise from Bolivia to Cape Horn. Its extreme length is about 2,200 miles with an average breadth (north of 41 deg.) of 100 miles. The great chain of the Andes runs along its eastern limit, with a general elevation of 13,000 or 14,- 000 feet above the level of the sea—but numerous summits attain a much greater altitude up to over 22,000, the chain, however, lowers considerably towards its southern termination. Chih is divided into 16 provinces, the aggregate area of which is reckoned at 126,060 square miles, but it claims a much larger terri - tory; extending as far as Cape Horn. Its population in 1875 was 2,300,000, in cluding 50,000 American Indians. The army since the commencement of the war with Peru has been largely increased, and in 1879 consisted of about 20,000 men, the navy of lOsteam-vessels manned by 540 men. Vegetation and agriculture are very abundant, and the implements of husband ry are of the newest kind. Ils mineral kingdom is extremely rich. The moun tains contain precious stones, such as the agate, jasper, rock-crystal, etc. etc. There are gold, silver, copper and coal mines, lead mixed with silver. Iron of the best quality, and in all almost all the copper there « a proportion of gold. The silver mines are found on the highest part of the Andes mountains. The manufactures bre earthen and copper wares, cordage, linens, soap and brandy, with wines. The chief exports being metals, wheat, flour, hides and tallow. The chief imports are woolen goods, hardware principally from England, silks from France, linen from Germany, etc. etc. There are 786 miles of railway open, 336 miles constructing, 2,483 miles of telegraph. 343 post-offices. Estimated revenue (1878) £4,088,795 (120,000,000). Estimated expenditure (1878) £4,275,145 (about $21,000,000). Public debt (1879) including railway £10,966,665 ($56,000,000). Chief cities: Caldera, Constitution, Co quimbo, Valparaiso, Talcahuano, Car rizal. REPUBLIC OF PERU. Capital Lima; population 100,000. Dictator, Don Nicolas de Pierola (Dec ember, 1879). Peru is an important maritime Republic of South America, on the Pacific ocean, about 1,300 miles in length. It is divided into 19 provinces and its area is estimated at 503,380 square miles, with a population of 3,374,000, consisting of Indians 57 per cent., Mestezoea 22 per cent., Blancos 18 per cent, and Negroes and Mulattoes 3 per cent. The country is traversed its length by the magnificent chain of the Andes mountains, running parallel to and about 60 miles distant from the coast, the region between being sandy desert, ex cept where watered by transverse moun tain streams. The valleys among the mountains are very fertile, and the Cor dilleras are rich in minerals, among which ■ silver, quicksilver and copper are the most conspicuous, constituting the chief source of the wealth of Peru. It is inter sected by numerous fine rivers, forming the head streams of the Amazon, by which it has complete communication with the Atlantic. Its medicinal pro- I Auctions are of great value, comprising chinchona or Peruvian bark, sarsaparilla, copaiba, etc. The Huanillos, Guanape. Macabi islands, Pabillonde, Pica ami Lobos are famous as the sources whence the world at large is supplied with Peru vian guano. Peru possessed on a peace footing an army of about 6,000, but the ' armv and navy have been well nigh an nihilated in the war with Chili. The chief exports are guano, nitrate of soda, sheep i and alpaca wool, sugar, silver, cinchona, i The chief imports are cotton manufac tures, ironware, cutlery, woolen goods and machinery. In 1878 there were 1,020 miles of railway open and 343 miles un finished; 1,374 miles of telegraph wires. Public revenue (1877) £2,708,305, bet ween 10 and 11 million dollars.

Habit.—Habit is a cable. We weave the thread of it every day, and at length we cannot break it. The chains of habit are generally too small to be felt, until they are too strong to be broken. To one who murmured because he rebuked him for a small matter, Plato replied: “Cus tom is no small matter. A custom or habit of life does frequently alter the natural inclination for good or evil.” After a series of years winding up a watch at a certain hour, it becomes so much of a routine as to be done in utter unconsciousness; meanwhile the mmd and body are engaged in something dif ferent.—. Dr. Cuyiw. THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, MARCH 24, 1881. Use Present OppoßTuniTiEs.-One les son that we all need to learn in our life and work for Christ is to grasp opport unities the instant theyappear. A person was walking along the sea-shore, gather ing what treasures of weed and shining stone and shell he might. There lay suddenly a shell more beautiful alto gether than any the searcher had turned up. He was searching in a dreamy way, listlessly looking here and there. “That shell is safe enough,’’ he said; “I can pick that up at my leisure.” But, as he wait ed, a higher wave swept (long the beach, recaptured the shell, and bore it back to the bosom of the ocean. Is not that like many of our opportunities? Seemingly they are providentially cast at our feet. The chance to do good or to get good seems to wholly within our reach that we think it safe to attend to other matters first. We delay the action for a moment, hut when we turn again the opportunity is gone. As single opportunities are used or unused, so fortunes are made or un made, positions are won or unwon, souls are saved or lost. In place of success, how many men see lost opportunities! Lose no occasion which presents itself to gather a goodly gem, whether it be for yourself or for others; in either case, if the prize be an unfading one, itisgained for Christ.— Church Mirror. A Little Bov’s Prayer.—A little boy, after saying nightly the prayers which had been taught him, was quite tena cious of what be called praying in his own way. Hr bad a large number ol brothers and slaters, whose needs and peculiarities he sometimes made the subject of his petitions. On one occa sion, at commencing this exercise, he was overcome with sleep. Wrestling with his stupor, he said: “O Lord, bless Elizabeth, and make her better than she is.” His head fell hack on the pillow, but soon rousing, he murmured drowsily, “Bless Henry too.” It was in vain ; the tongue refused its office, so he added in distinctly: “O Lord, I can’t: there are too many of ’em,” and he sank into the deep slumber of childhood. At another time, while conducting this exercise in a somewhat more wakeful manner, he said: “Lord, please bless father, and give him a new heart. O Lord, bless mother but you need not give her a new heart, for she could not have any better one than she’s got, and I don’t see how she’d go Jo work to be any better woman than she is now.’’ A Dwelling-House Made of Paper. One of the most interesting objects of fered to public inspection at the Kidney International Exhibition was a dwelling house exclusely made of paper, and fur nished throughout with articles manu factured from the same material. Walls, roof, floorings, and staircases alike con sisted of cartonpierre. The carpets and curtains, bedsteads, lamps, sheets and counterpanes, towels, bootjacks, baths, kitchen utensils, etc. were one and all preparations of papier-mache, as were the very stoves used for heating the rooms, in which large fires were kept burning throughout the duration of the exhibition. Several banquets were given in the paper house by its owners to the commissioners, members of the press, and foreigners of distinction. All the plates, dishes, knives and forks, bottles and drinking-vesselfi used at these enter tainments, were fabricated entirely and solely of paper. Should these paper buildings come into vogue, they may be expected to superinduce some striking changes in the rates of fire insurance, at present calculated upon a basis of bricks and mortar.— Selected. Sponges long in use are sometimes af fected with sliminess which is *aused by the sponge not being wrung as dry as possible immediately after use. When this has once formed, it increases rapidly. A London paper says that one of the most effectual receipts for cleaning spon ges, and certainly one of tbe cheapest, is a strong solution of salt and water, in which they should soak for a few hours, and be thoroughly dried. Sponges should not be left in a sponge dish ; they should be kept suspended where the air can freely circulate around them. Quick evaporation of the dampness is the main thing to keep them in good order. Onions and Malaria.-A young man in this place was quite recently taken down with malarial fever, so pronounced by the family physician, nis pulse mark ing one hundred. In the evening the family determined to test the onion cure. Several onions were accordingly bruised and applied to the soles of his feet and his wrists; the consequence was thorough sweating during the night and an ab sence of the fever in the morning, the cure being complete. We can vouch for the correctness of this statement. Waynesboro (Pa.) Record. A Novel Method of Overcoming a Bad Habit.—Chief Justice Oliver Ells worth resolved to cure himself of the habit of snuff taking, which had acquired undue power over him. He took his. snuff-box to an unoccupied room in the garret of his house and left it there. When he wanted a pinch of snuffhe had thus to ascend and descend several flights of stairs in order to obtain it. The Judge soon became tired of taking snuff under such self-imposed difficulties. Mrs. Polk, the widow of the ex-Presid ent, is nearly eighty years old. She lives quietly atNashville with a favorite niece for a companion. She is so highly es teemed in Tennessee, that through all the financial vicissitudes of the State, the interest on her $40,000 worth of bonds has always been promptly paid with no diminution.

OBITUARIES. THORNTON—Mm. PherlbaT. Thornton, the widow of Elder Vincent R. Thornton, died on Thursday, the ITtb ult., in the seventy-third Sear of her age. Shewa* born in 1808. bap red 1828, on the ume day with her huibend, by Jonathan Davii, and afterward received into tbe ftllowahlp or the Bethesda Baptist church, or which cnuich she died a worthy member. _ She was a patient, pious, godly woman. Her lire was a living epistle, a spiritual Psalm, written of God. On Sunday night, before her death on Thursday, she raid to me. ‘ Pray for me, not that 1 may not die, but pray that when the Lord’s time comes, I may go with out a cloud and without a pain. lam not afraid to die.’ - There were several in the room. We all knelt by her bed and prayed. She kept up along with every word, and at tbe close her amen was forvent and touching. On the following Thursday morning, in the presence or weeping children, she quietly, peacefully, painlessly and almost smilingly, fell asleep In Jesus. A feeling and appropriate sermon was preached on the occasion by El der J. 8. Callaway, her pastor, to a sympa thising and bereaved audience, which dense ly filled the rooms and ball and verandas of the old home house. Her remains were borne to their resting El ace in the garden, decorated with henown arids, beside the remains of her husband on the right and Her elueat son on the left. But she is now seated with husband and son and her Elder Brother and Heaven ly Father in the house above, that Home House “not made with hands.’’ W.A. O. TORLAY-Departed this life August 12th, 1880, Mrs. Mary B. To, .'ay, wife ot 8. Torlay, of Banana, Putnam county, Fla. Deceased was born in Marlon county, 8. C., February 7th, 1817. and was the daughter of Thomas and Mary B. Hi- ks. Being naturally of a delicate organization, three years before her death she was attacked with a cough and gradually declined, until one calm and lovely morning she gently, peacefully, and without a struggle, fell asleep in Jesus. As the writer of this notice sat near her coffin in the church which she had loved and attended so faithfully, and as the venerable man of Bod stood Just above, and read from God’s own word, the words seemed to come directly from the great white throne. "Write, Blessed are the dead whodlein tbe Lord from henceforth: yea, sal th they rest from their labors, and their works do follow them.” Like the swiftly passing scenes of a panora ma, my mind reviewed ourdarllng’sshort,but well spent life Again I saw her a little child, beloved by all for her amiability and sweet ness ot disposition, and making our earth gladder and better by her presence, Then a fair and delicate maiden, I saw her tripping lightly among the flowers aad using her gifts of heart and mind in doing good. On the veige of womanhood I saw her again, conse crating her life to Jesus, and one calm Sab bath morning brother Tomkies of sainted memory, burled her in baptism, together with many ottieiH. Again the scene changes, and in snowy robes, adorned with flowers, I see her a happy, Joyous bride. Then through swiftly parsing years I see her as wife and mother, sister and friend—faithful to all. And now, as 1 look on her coffin. I seem to bear the Master say, “Well done, good and faithful ser vant,” and to her mourning husband and children the same voice is saying, “She is not lost, but gone before.” 8. TOMLINSON—Died, on the 2d day of March, 1881, Mis. Lucy C. Tomlinson, in the seventy third year of her age. The subject of this notice was born in Wilkes county, Ga.. on the 7th day of March, 18C8, married to Humphrey Tomlinson in the year 1825. She was baptized into Sardis church, Wilkes county, by that great man of God, Jesse Mercer, more than fifty years ago. Re moved to McDonough in 1887, where she lived until death. In the death of sister Tomlinson the church is bereaved of one of the- most efficient work ers, one who watched closely the welfare of the church and pastor. Always providing the pastor and other ministers visiting the church with a good home during their stay with her, and when baptism was to be ad ministered she never failed to have every thing in order. She was devoted to her church—oae of those carrying out the com mand, “Whatsoever thy hand finds to do, do it with thy might.” Through all her bereave ments of children, husband and relatives, sbe manifested a Christian resignation, with which she finished her life, saying, “I feel resigned to the will of the Lord,” leaving to her children and kindred a Christian charac ter worthy of their highest respect. J. T. K. MILNER—Died, in Birmingham, Ala .after a protracted illness, January 2tlth, 1881, aged B7 years, Mrs. Mary A. Milner, widow of tha l»te Willis J. Milner, formerly of Pike county, Georgia. Mrs. Milner was a life-long subscriber to The Index, and her husband was the pioneer of the church in Pike county, his former resi dence. Tbe first church was established in the county by the father of the latter, Rev. John Milner, while visiting his son, and he con tinued in charge of the church thus estab lished until his death. « * To One and All.— Are you suffering from a cough, cold, asthma, bronchitis, or any of the various pulmonary troubles that so often end in consumption ?
