Clerical Notes. The Mormorf continue to excite the Protestant chqi'ch In tbe West and South, and many affirm that they aim to be a vast 1101111081 machine. The Mormons declare thfit “those only are ’ the, people of God who render absolute obedience to tbe Mormon priesthood." Alluding to the unfortunate state ments of Rev. Mr. Mclntyre the Ad vance says: “A minister must of all mrn be a truthful man, a sincere man and a real man. The world likes bold , preaching, but it must be of the bold ness that tells the truth and stands by it. every day in the week,” A clergyman left a note to be. read by the preacher with whom he ex changed, and the preacher astonished ; the congregation by reading a post script intended for the preacher only, as follows: "You will please come end dine with me at the parsonage.” The lflvltatiorl'was widely accepted. Dr. Wallter gave good advice to tine students wheat'he said: "Young men. take counsel of your caution, take coun sel of your prudence, but never take counsel of your fears.” MED FEATHER.

It had been raining off and on ter weeks, and as sh • aat at her window wearily waiting for him übo bad left her. ahe suddenly sprang to her feet with an ex clamation of dismay. “Can it he? Yea—no—yea, the bridge at Sliver Brook ia down! The train will be wrecked!" Uke a flesh of lightning she waa gone dowo the path which I'd to the track, and with a short sharp whistle to her dog Nery she made a quick torn anti sped dawn the track Tbe rains had swollen Silver Brook (a small mountain stream! to a perfect torrent of seething, foaming waters. The “bridge,” as It was called, crossed Silver Brook al a distance of about three miles from the pass. But Clare had forgotten something she needed, a lantern, turning to her dog she said half fiercely. “Nero! Nero! good dog, get lantern!” He scann-d to under stand. and In a few minutes bounded hark with one tied around his neck. Arriving at the seething river Clare found that the tails hnd been torn from the bridge, leaving only one or two frail planks of the once strorg bridge. She could eee them sway buck and forth a* the mighty waters avept paß. them. Could she cross? Fearlessly she planted her foot on the plonk and with one wild prayer the she might reach the other side In safety she rnm mene tl her perilous Journey. She hart scarcely reached the mltldlo of the plank when she felt it bead heneallt her weight. “Could she efnss? Yes, she must. Perhaps he will be on the train.” Tills thought gave her courage to continue her dangerous journey. At last Just ns she touches terra firms, she hears the train In the distance, and as she turns to look again at the foaming waters the last plank gives way and she sees It float down the stream. Her benumbed fingers scarce ly hart strength enough left to light the lantern, (for night had fallen and ex cept by tbe lantern she had no other moans of giving a warning to the ap proaching train.) As the Iron monster drew near she had just strength enough left to make one last mighty effort to wave the lantern In the cold night air—then she knew no more. “By Gracious, George, what's that?” The person addressed sprang to Jiin feet with an exclamation of surprise. “Slow up, old boy. Something is wrong there, that is a danger signal,” be said. As the engine pul!“d up about twenty feet atvay from vvhf-ie tiare Jay,George sprang to the ground.

A Frenchman born lu a chateau so fine, Marrying when his age did not reach ten and nine. I’ll tell you his story, I’ll tell it in rhyme— How he fongtu for our country In our ancestors’ time, How he gave his brave blood for America dear. The date of his birth Ib tiow drawing near. In Paris he met Franklin and good Ar thur Lee, And at Bordeaux he fitted a vessel for sea. His dear liule wife strongly urged him to go— So he sailed from Pasages during King Winter's snow! In Amer'ea'e cause he did just what was right, And be always was seen in the thick of the right; But right here I suppose that I may as well add: When France freed him from prijpn we all were real glad. When he to America In after years re turned! He received the credit and the praise bn well hud earned, Our fathers all met him ’midst cheers and acclaim, (Thanks for helping us stive our dear country’s name.)
