Life and Dentil. “Wiiat is Life, Father?” “A battle, my child, , Where the strongest lance may fail, Where the wariest eyo may bo beguiled, And tho stoutest heart may quail: Where the foes are gathered on every hand, And rest not day.nor night, And the feeble, little ones must stand In the thickest of the fight.” “What is Death, Father?” “The rest, my child, When the toil and strife aro o’er: The Angel of Ood wrho, calm and mild, Says we need fight no more ; Who, driving away the demon band, Bids the din of the battle cease, Takes banner and spear from our failing hand And proclaims an eternal peace. “Let me die, Father l I tremble and fear To yield in that terrible strife!” The crown must be won for heaven, my dear, In the battle-field of life ; My child, though thy foes are strong and tried' He loveth the weak and small; The angels of heaven are on thy side, And God is over all!”’ “No Tears in Heaven.” I met a child; his feet were bare, Ilis weak Frame Bhivered with the cold ; Ilis youthful brow was knit with care, Ilia mournful eyo his sorrow told. Said I, “Poor boy, why weepest thou ?” “My parents are both dead,” he said ; “I have not where to lay my head ; 0, I am lone and friendless now 1” Not friendless, child j a friend on high For you hie precious blood hath given ; Cheer up and let each tear be dry— “ There are no tears in Heaven.” I eaw a man, in life’s gay noon, Stand weeping o’er his young bride's bier ; “And we must part,” he cried, “so soon I” As down his cheek there rolled a tear. “Heart-stricken one,” said I, “weep not!' “Weep not 1” in accents wild he cried, “But yesterday my young lovo died ! And shall she be so soon forgot?” Forgotten ! no, still let her love Sustain thy heart with anguish riven ; Strive thou to meet thy bride aboTe, And dry your.tears in Heaven. I saw a gentlo mother weep, As to her throbbing heart she prest An infant, seemingly asleep, On its kind mother s shelt’ring breast. “Fair one,” said I, “pray weep no more 1” Subbed she, “the idol of my hope I now am called to render up; My babe has reached deuth's gloomy shore.” Young mother, yield no more to grief, Nor be by passion’s tempest driven, But find in these sweet words relief— “ There are no tears in Heaven.” Poor traveler o'er life's trouble ! wave, Cast down by grief, o’erwhelmed by fear, There is an arm a'bovo can save : Then yield not thou to fell despair. Look upward mourners, look above ! What tho’ the thunders echo loud? The sun shines bright behind the cloud ; Then trust to thy Redeemer’s love. Where'er thv lot in life be cast, Whate’er of toil or woo be given, Be firm—remember to tho last, “There are no tears in Heaven.” — . woe .woe -- »' Solomon’s Temple Exhumed. The London Times publishes an interesting letter in regard to the discoveries at Jerusalem from which we select the following: “The colossal foundations of the temple wall, which are “stones of ten cubits and stones of eight cubits,’’ laid by Solomon or his successors on the throne, are now being laid bare at the enormous depth of 90 feet and more beneath the present surface. The bridge that once spanned the ravine between the palace of Zion and the temple of Moriah is now proved to have been upwards of 150 feet high. If this be as it seems, the ascent to the house of the Lord which Solomon showed to the Queen of Sheba, we cannot wonder that on seeing it there was no spirit in her. The pinnacle of the temple on which the tempter placed the Savior has just been uncovered to the base, and is found still to have an elevation of 136 feet. The statement of Josephus is therefore no ex aggeration. If any ono looked from the battle ments into the valley, be would bo giddy, while his sight could not reach to such an immense depth. Seotions of the ancient wall of Ophel Lave been exhumed, showing that, as Josephus says, it was joined to the southeast angle of the temple. Aqueducts, rock-hewn channels and passages have been discovered within and around the harem, throwing new lijfht on the buildings, the arrangements and the services of the temple. The great work of a complete exploration of ancient Jerusalem is thus fairly and auspiciously commenced. Tho opportune visit of the Sultan and Grand Vizier to this esuntry, and the representations made to the latter by the Archbishop of York, followed up as they have been by the energy, ths wisdom and the tact of Lieut. Warren and his admira ble staff, have soothed down Moslem prejudice, removed local opposition, and thus brought about opportunities for excavation and explo ration such as never occurred before; and besides, large numbers of Arab laborers have been trained to the work, and are eager to be employed, and the exact points for successful exploration are now well knowm” One of the best sorts of minds is that which minds its own business. Like many other ex tra good things, including beefsteaks it is somewhat rare. Preventive Auninst the Cotton Worm. Wo cull the following from an article in tile Now Iberia (La.,) Journal: A planter on tho coast, having for several years past, been in the habit of sowing in his cotton land the ordinary cow peas, and finding to his amazement, that those of his neighbors’ crops where no peas had beon sown were liter ally destroyed by tho worms, bis crop remain ing untouched, was induced to test the efficacy of the vines as a preservative against their de struction. With this view, he tried the follow ing experiment, to wit: That of cultivating one portion of his field in cotton alone, and surrounding the other with a belt of peas.— This done, the poriod of the army worm to appear having arrived, that portion of his field wherein no peas bad been sown was entirely devoured, while that in which peas had beon sown remained untouched—a result which, of course, leads him very rationally to suppose that the vine alone, growing around the cotton, has proved its protection against the aggression of the insect. After all, from the accountgiven by the oldest inhabitants of our parish, wc arc inclined to think that it is as reported, an infallible pre servative against the ravages of the cotton worm, and for this reason : From the authority quoted above, we are told that up to twenty or twenty five years ago, such a thing as the army or cptton worm was unknown among them, and before that p*eriod it was the universal practice of all planters to yearly sow their fields— whether of cotton or corn, in peas. Why should they have given up this wholesome practice, we arc unable to say, but certain it is that since, few have been the crops raised in this section without having been more or less injured by these inseets. We could not too strongly urge upon pur cotton planters tlie importance of testing the efficacy of this simple expedient, it being both easy and profitable. Religious Worship in China. A correspondent in China of the San Fran cisco Bulletin, lately visited a religious meet ing held in Canton by a missionary. It was conducted in the Canton dialect. The prac tices of coming late, going out duiing the service, and sleeping under powerful discourses 1 revail thero as in other countries. During the service a man came running in with a wild expression on his countenance, and asked the minister what oouid be done for a man who had been frightened to death. 1 lie interrupted preacher gave him the necessary directions and proceeded with his remarks. But he was not allowed to complete the service in peace after this strange interruption. “Before the sermon closed, the military mandarin of the province happened to pass along the street in front of the chapel, and the congregation tumbled pell "iricirifftß the street, and we, being left a ‘beg garlv account of empty benches,’ followed them.” Imperialism. Who are the Imperialists? The men who find the money to support the organ howling for that political curse, a monarchy, with its lazy and corrupt aristocracy, nobility and roy alty. The sensational sheet, now talked about by the rural district journals, all over the land j is a feeler put forth by certain parties in the interest of Grant and hi* cabinet. In the days or the “lamented,” when Bill Sewatd rang hi, little bell, and the hastile gates opened for fresh victims hourly, all the country heard much about the President’* “Premierour ears hare not caught the term of late, but it nmy be lis tened for. “Premier” would" sound well just now to start with, and get the senses of the “subjects” used to tho royal terms that will finally follow. In one of the numbers of the Imperialist, we find the advertisements of eleven Mongrel bondholding bankers, who are paying their money to push the idea on. Os course these subjects of Imperialism expect, if the thing takes, to receive from his Royal Ma jesty, King Ulysses tho First, something fat in the way of titles. — [N, Y. Dem. The Boston Journal says: “Mr. Jacob Whipple, of Squaboro’ does not see the use of building school houses and paying teachers to educate a parcel of boys and gals who know a darned sight more than thoir parents do al ready.” A Southern paper says that rats may be effectually kept from oats in the stack, or in the barn, by sprinkling wood ashes pretty freely among the bundles. The ashes get into the nose and eyes of the rats producing a disagree able sensation, and they leave the premises.— The ashes at the same time will be beneficial to the stock. A Girl. —A homo without a girl is only half blessed ; it is an orchard without blossoms, and a spring without song. A house full of sons is like Lebanon with its cedars, but daughters by the fireside are like roses in Sharon. The mystery of Napoleon’s career was this : under all difficulties and discouragements to “press on.” It solves the problems of all he roes ; it is the rule by which to judge of all wonderful success and triumphal marchos to fortunes and genius. It should be the motto of all. “Press on.” Never despair, never be discouraged ; however stormy the heavens, or dark the way, or great tho difficulties, or re peated the failures, “press on.” A Georgia paper says that the people of that section heve made up their minds to raise their own bread, and that tho planters have put in about forty per cent of com, ten of oats, and fifty of cotton. Every day brings its own duties, and car. ries them along with it ; and they are as waves broken on the shore, many like them coming after, but none ever the same. Good Sdyings. Wo arc always looking into the futuro, but we see only the past. Tho courage with which we have met dan gers is often our best security for the presont. Real sorrow is almost as difficult to discovor as real poverty. An instinctive delicacy hides the rags of tho one and tho wounds of the other. lie who has never denied himßelf for the sake of giving has but glanced at the joys of charity. Wo owe our superfluity, and to bo happy in thejporformance of our duty wo must cxcoed it. Let us ever exceed our appointed duties, and keep within our lawful ploasures. We expect everything, but are prepared for nothing. There are not good things enough in life to indemnify us for the neglect of a single duty. We aro rich only through what we givo, and poor only through what wc refuse. There is a transcendent power in example. We reform others unconsciously when we walk uprightly. The inventory of my faith for this lower world is soon made out- I believe in Him who made it. Situations are like -skeins of thread? to make the most of them we need only to tako them by tho right end. The Society of Woman. Ono of the greatest benefits a young man may derive from woman’s society i* that he is bound to be respectful to them. The habit is of great good to you, moral men, depend upon it. Our education makes us the most eminent ly selfish men in the world. We fight for our selves ; we push for ourselves ; we cut the best dices out of the joint at club dinners for our selves, and light our pipes, and say we won t go out, we prefer ourselves and our ease; aud the greatest good that comes to man from woman's society is that he has to think of somebody besides himself, somebody to whom he is bound to be attentive and respectful.— Certainly I don’t want my dear Bob to asso ciate with those of the other sex whom he doesn’t respect; that is worse than billiards ; worse than tavern brandy and water ; worse that smoking selfishness at home. But I vow I would rather see you turning over the leaves of Miss Fiddlecombe’s rausio book all night than billiards or smoking, or brandy and water, or all three. —[Thackeary. Two gentlemen, of opposite politics,meeting, one inquired the address of some political celebrity, when the othor indignantly an swered — “I am proud to say, sir, that I aia wholly ignorant of it.” “01 you are proud of your ignorance, eh, •ir?” ‘Yes, I am,’ replied the belligerent gentle men, ‘and what then, sir?’ *0 1 nothing, sir, nothing ; only you have a great deal to be proud of, that’s all/ Tlie Famine in Russia. The foreign mails bring further particulars of tho famine prevailing in the Russian prov ince of Esthonia, on the Black Sea. No rain fell from Mav 23d to August 18th, 1868, and consequently the crops weie burned up. Now bread cannot be obtained except for exorbitant prices, and the supplies are very scanty. Tho wet weather of the present season has made the roads impassable, and no assistance can reach the people. Disease has also com menced to afflict the population. The peasants have congregated in large numbers in the vil lages in hope of obtaining food and shelter, and the crowds in weakened condition are suffering from hunger and typhus. Discour aged and in despair of receiving relief, children are deserting their parents, and parents their children, to wander about the country, beg ging and plundering.—[Sav. News, 6th. Never Forsake a Friend, —When enemies gather around, when sickness falls on the heart, when the world is dark and cheerless, is the time to try true friendship. Those who turn from the scene of distress botray their hypocrisy, and prove that interest only moves them. If you have a friend who loves you, who has studied your interest and happiness, be sure to sustain him in adversity. Let him feel that his former kindness is appreciated, and that his love was not thrown away, peal fidelity inay be rare, but it exists in the heart. Those only deny its worth and power who never loved a friend, or labored to make a friend happy. The Nations Without Fire. According to Pliny, fire was a long time un known to some of the ancient F.gyptiane ; and when Exodus (the celebrated astronomer) showed it to them, they were absolutely in rapture. The Persians, Phoenicians, Greeks, and several other nations, acknowledged that their ancestors were unce without the use of fire, and the Chinese confess the same of their progenitors. Pompanion, Mola, Plutarch and other ancients speak of nations who, at the time they wrote, knew not the uee of fire, or had just learned it. Facts of the same kind are also attested by several modern nations. The inhabitants of the Marion Islands, which wore discovered in 1151, had no idea of fire. Never was astonishment greater than theirs when they saw it on the desert of Magallan ) In one of their islands. At first they believed it was some kind of an animal that fixed to and fed upon wood. The inhabitants of the Philippine and Canary Islands were formerly equally ignorant. Afrioa presents, even in our own day, nations in this doplorable state. Two walking sticks; a broom; one dozon pair woolen socks —nice for spring; pair boots; eagle on the legs ; ono pup ; four years' pew rent; and his picture are Grant’s latest gifts. I ‘He gathers them in : he gathers them in.’ \ r OL. 4. NO. 27, A Solid Lump of Wisdom. The New York Herald says: “Large porv tions of tho best cotton lands in Mississippi have been flooded by tho recent heavy rains in that quarter destroying tho cotton planted and making a replanting necessary. But if the planters are quick about it they may still, by replanting secure a fair crop. But if the subsidence of the overflow will make it too late for tho cotton, it will not be too late for tho corn, and the South cannot raise too much corn. With a rousing crop of Indian corn, though everything else may fail, tho Southern people will be rich. They have heretofore too much neglected this life-sustaining staple.— The lessons which they learned in the late Confederacy, however, of the vital importance of a good crop of ludian corn, they have since turned to a good account; sot their corn crop of last year, if we are not mistaken, made thoir cotton crop clear cash, or very near it, on the costs of the two crops. Lot the plan ters of the.cotton States, then, remember that where it may bo too late to replant a swamped cotton field, they may still be in season for a good field of corn.” To-day and Today we gather bright and beautiful flow ers—tomorrow they are faded and dead, Today a wreath of leaves shades us—tomor row, sere and fallen, they crumble beneath our tread. Today tho earth is covered with a carpet of green—tomorrow it is brown with 'the with* ered grass. Today the vigorous stock only bends before the gale—tomorrow leafless and sapless, S child may break the brittle stem. Today the ripening fruit and waving gr*mf j tomorrow ‘th* land is soeking its rest after the toil/ Today we hear sweet songsters' of meadow and forest, the buzz and hum of myriad insects tomorrow—breathe softly—all nature ia hushed and silent. Today a stately edifice, complete in finish and surrounding, attra«ts the passer by—to morrow a heap of ruins marks the site. Today there are cattle upon a thousand hills —tomorrow they fall in slaughter. The fashion of the world passeth away.— f But let Christ dwell with us, and though wo may pass away‘like the faded leaf and sapless stalk, we shall ‘arise to newness of life.’ “Where everlasting spring abides And never withering flowers.” Brutal Treatment of the Insane in Massa chusetts. Tlie Massachusetts Legislative Committee which is charged with the investigation of the death of Parks, at the Taunton Lunatio Asy* lum, happened a few days ago, upon the bits of new testimony of just such a character ac furnished Charles Reads with the materiel for ‘Hard Cash.’ Patrick Milan, of Readville, a former patient of the asylum, testified that he saw the struggle between Parks and the atv tendants; three men held down the victim; of these three, Young was kneeling on his breast, choking him and striking him with hik fist; Lamson was stamping upon Parks’ breast with his heel, and kicking'him on the side with all his might, waiting for a chance to hit fair between the struggle of the victim, who hollowed as often as there was any breath in his body. IV'hen Parks was completely exhausted, he was taken to his bgd room, where the witness heard more violence in the' night. Why didn’t tlie witness make public such doings ? He did not dare. lie had known patients to be beaten for making com plaints. One day, Keeper Charles Acorn re quired witness to bathe, and upon his refusing, knocked down and kicked him so severely thaftf he was still lame from the injuries then re ceived. lie had also been kicked and bruised when he was in a strait jacket. The counsel for the asylum cross-examined and bullyragv ged the witness, but failed to discredit hi*‘ testimony, which was very clear. Atlanta-Made Tobacco. Tho first box of Tobacco made in Atlanta was sold this morning by Col. Adair, to the “Live Drug Store” for one dollar sixty-two and a half cents per pound. Atlanta is the Tobacco market of the South. Parties can purchase it her# at better prices than else where, and as we are to have a large number of Tobacco factories in operation here, the supply will be ample, A large number of negroes came by the Georgia Railroad train this morning, from Danville, Yn., to work in ono of the tobacco factories.—[Atlanta Con-‘ stitution, 6th inst. Woman. —An exchange says, wo can always tell what sort of a woman a man marries, by tho way he treats the printer. If he gets a common wife, lie forgets the printer altogether. If he gets a tolerably good wifo, he will send in the notice of his marriage. If he gets a very good one, he will send the printer a niee' slice of cako accompanying the notice. If he gets an extra one, he will send a nice slice of cake and a bottle of wine with the notice. And if he gets a glorious, angelio creature—all aft' section and goodness—he is sure to send the printer a nice lot of cake and wine and two dollars to pay for a year's subscription to the papier. A Danville correspondent of the Richmond Dispateh says that the negroes of that town are rapidly moving South. Fifty of them left a night or two ago for Atlanta. Tho tobacco manufacturers have gone to the same plaoe. Our factories are nearly all closed. “I wish, Sally,” said Joems “that you were locked in my arms, znd tho key was forever lost.”
