Youth was apt to lire entirely in the
futon; old age in looking
into the past, while middle life was upon
the apex and looked both ways. As an
old picture of Guido has been brought
out fresh into the light by the hand of a
skillful artist, who removed from its sur
face the accumulated dust and paint of
many years, so the preacher wished to
roll bock the years in the memoir of his
hearers and bring back their early days
in vivid recollection. Among the early
advantages of his hearer’s childhood had
been goal home surroundings. The bad
men of to-day had for the most part
dipped their heated passions out of.the
bmling spring of an unhappy home.
The preacher drew a picture off a happy
family gathered around the evening fire-
side of a city home, sod pointed out sow
much there was to be grateful for in such
a home in which the child was cared for
as no lamb ever hod been. ,qi
The first great sorrow that darkened
life was referred to, and the re

agony felt by the parent when the death
angel hovered over the crib of a beloved
child. The wild prayers to God to spare
its life, and the vows uttered with stream
ing eyes were brought back to mind.
Ah! they had been better men and better
women for such an experience. From
this the first sorrow, perhaps, the preach
er came down to the latest sorrow ex
perienced by his people.: It might be
financial disaster, it might be ucknees.

sympatMes in the present war seem to
be entirely with Russia, is a watchful,
though silent, observer of every contin

vice has lately been rendered by him
to the St Petersburg Cabinet in per

in want of Siege artillery, a number of
cannon originally ordered by the Ger

shortly due. Moet of these cannon

resses on the Baltic, the ordnance of
which had been sent to the Danube.
Alike favor to Russia is shown by
German railway companies, who re
turned engines lately received to the
manufacturers in order to secure the
immediate fulfilment of large orders
received from St. Petersburg. Subscrip

Duration of tho-Present Pope’s

tory of Papacy canRetraced, no Pope
till now has reigned longer than the
Apostolic Founder of the Holy See.
Pius VI reigned within three or four
months of five-and-twenty years; and
till the reign of Pins IX this was the
nearest approach to the alleged Pontifi
cate of Peter. The duration of that is
said to have been twenty-five years, two
months and seven days. Bnt Pins IX
is now in the fifteenth year of his Epis
copate, in the thirty-first year of his
Pontificate, and in the eighty-fifth year
Of his age. He has, with ono or two
exceptions, outlived all the Cardinals
who took part in his election in the
June of 1846; has confuted the old be
lief embodied in the word3 Non videbis
annos Petri, and is to-day, with one ex
ception—that of Queen Victoria^—the
oldest reigning sovereign in Europe.
Her Majesty is the Pope’s senior as a
sovereign by nearly ten years. But
with this exception the Pope has seen
every throne in Europe change its oc
cupant since the triple crown was placed
on his brows in St Peter’s, and some
of them he has seen refilled more than
