institutions altogether. It has no fear of knaves,
and asks no favors from their supporters.

Weary, Lonely, Restless,
Homeless.
BY FATHER RYAN.
Weary hearts ! weary hearts 1
By cares of life oppressed.
Ye are wandering in the shadows.
Ye are sighing for the rest;
There is darkness in the heavens
And the earth is bleak below,
And the joys We taste to-day
May to morrow turn to woe.
Weary hearts 1 God is rest 1
Lonely hearts! lonely hearts!
’Tis but a land of grief;
Ye are are pining for repose,
Ye are lonelfig for lelief;
What the hath never given,
Kneel and gsk of God above,
And your grief shall turn to gladness,
It you lean upon his love.
Lonely hearts God is love.
Restless hearts ! Restless hearts !
Ye are toiling night and and iv,
And the flowers of life all withered,
Leave but tfiorns along your way;
Ye are waitiag, ye are waiting
Till your tolling here shall cease,
And your ever restless throbbing
Is a sad, sajl prayer for peace.
RestUss hearts ! God is peace !
Broken hearts 1 broken hearts 1
Ye are desblate and lone,
And low voices from the past
O’ev your present ruins moan;
In the sweetest of your pleasures
There bitterest alloy,
And a starless night hath followed
On the sunset of your joy.
Broken hearts! God is joy.
Homeless hearts ! homeless hearts 1
Through the dreary years,
Ye are lonely, lonely wanderers,
And yonr way is wet with tears;
In bright or plighted places,
Wheresoever ye may roam,
Ye look away from earthland
And ye murmur, “Where is home?”
Homeless hearts! God is home.
‘‘Going Her Prettiest.”
TOM POTTS, THE ENGLISH ENGINEER, TELLS
HOW HIS LOCOMOTIVE JUMPED A GAP.
[From Ttylor’s slodern Highways.]
Tom Pott 8, a well-known locomo
tive euginefcr iu England and the
States is the self-accredited hero of
the following wonderful story or suc
cessful daring. I will narrate it as
nearly as I can in his own words. I
have heard him tell it, often:
“Well. goUMhunen, I say you’ll think
it’s a lie, but I can’t help that; 3-011
have asked, me to tell it, and all I can
say i.", if you'd been in my place you’d
have seen it.
“I had been driving the Witch for
about seve.i months, and a sweet thing
she was. I never was half so fond of
an engine as I was of her. She was
the kind of machine a man only gets
once in a liietime.
“She tua le her steam quick, was
eas}’ on fuel, started off livel}-, and
went like a deer. Hr cylinders were
16-inch, her stroke 22, and her drivers
7 f< et 0, and she was as kind to han
dle as a baby.
“To see lyr run off with a heavy
load, light and gay, was enough to
shame tne Juno, Venus, and Helen,
and other 18-inch machines.
She never wanted fixing up. Ve
nus was always going in ami out of
the shop to be titivated, and if there’s
anything 1 don’t like it’s an engine
that all the time wants ti? be titivated.
She was nlwas ready and willing for
work. Why, bless yon ! she was only
washed out for the sake of cleanliness
—she didn’t need it a bit.
“She was the tidiest thing I ever
seen—seemed as though dirt wouldn’t
stick to her. #
“Well, what I am going to tell came
off years ago, before I 1 ft the old
country, and it was one of the best
railroads—single track then, though
it’s got three now, and four in some
spots.
“Well, the Witch and I were put
on the mail, one of the fastest trains,
and they went like sixty in them
days.
“The engineer was fined a shilling
for every minute he lost. He dared
not go slow for fog, unless he wanted
to lose his day’s pay. He had to keep
going right along, and see things be
fore lie got iu sight of ’em.
“We were running north one dark
ish wintry day, and were making our
best streaks. I should recon we were
going about fifty miles an hour.
“I was saying to myself, ‘she’s go
ing her prettiest,’ when we suddenly
shot ahead, as if we had beeu fired
out of a caunon.
“I knew what that meant. We had
broke loose, we hadn’t a car behind
us. The coupbng had broken be
tween the tender and the first coach.
“How we flew, to he sure ! I whistled
tiie guard to break up the train. How
we bounded along!
“I could make out no pbji cts along
side; we must have got as fast as 100
miles an hour.
“It was a straight piece of track for
some miles. I did not shut off steam
directly we broke, for I didn’t want
the train to ruy into 11s, which might
linppen if they did not hear me whis
tle for breaks.
“It was lucky I kept, her going, for
just as I had had about enough of
such flying, a man started out about
six hundred yards before us, holding
a red flag.*
“There was nothiug in the way, so
I knew something must he wrong with
the track.
“You might as well have tried to
stop a whirlwind as the Witch in that
distance. Her speed was frightful.
“There wasn’t much time to think,
and as we could not stop, the faster
we went the bettor; so I gave what
more steam there was. She seemed to
have some ‘go’ in reserve, for we shot
past the red flag like a flash.
“I saw men standing horror-struck.
“Bill” I said, ‘quick ! Get on the
coke, and see what’s ahead.
“He looked and went deadly pale,
tottered and fell back in a faint.
“By this time I could see plain
enough what was wrong.
“There was a gap in the track
where a bridge had gone down.
“You can’t imagine my feelings just
then. Going to death—death, swift,
and terrible, at about two miles a
minute—getting nearer, near! I
thought of my wife and child—nearer!
An instant more—the gap!
“God have mercy,’ I shrieked.
“Well, would you have believed it?
that engine just cleared that gap !
It was 11 fteen feet across, and about
sixty feet deep.
“She jumped that gap like a stag,
and what’s more, she struck the rails
all right on the other side and kept
right, along, just as if she had not no
ticed the gap.
“I stirred Bill up, and, with both of
us at the brake, we managed at last to
stop the Witch.
“She was on a tear that day, but I
never dreamed she’d jump the gap—
that’s a fact.”
Dickens’ Advice to his Son.
Never take a mean advantage of
any one in an} 7 transaction, and never
be bard upon people who are in your
power. Try to do to others as you
would have them do to 3-011, and do
not be dircouraged if they should fail
in obeying the greatest rule laid down
by our Saviour than that 3-011 should,
i put a New Testament among your
books for the very same reasons that
made me write an account of it for
you when you were a littie child, be
cause it is the best book that ever was
or ever will be known in the world, and
because it teaches you the best les
sons by which any human creature,
who tries to bj truthful and faithful
to duty, can possibly be guided. As
your brothers have gone away, one by
one, I have written to each one such
word as I am now writing to you aud
have entreated them to guide them
selves by this book, putting aside the
interpretations and inventions of man.
You will remember that you have nev
er at home been harrassed about re
ligious observances, or mere formali
ties. I have always been anxious not
to weary my children with such
things before they are old enough to
form opinions respecting them You
will therefore understand the better
that I must now solemnly impress
upon you the truth and beauty of
tiie Christian religion as it came from
Christ himself, aud the impossibility
of goi g far wrong if yon humbly but
heartily respect it. Only one thing
more on this head. Tiie more wo are
in earnest as to feeling if, the less we
are disposed to hold forth about it.
Never abandon the wholesome prac
tice of saying 3-0111- own private pray
ers, night and morning. I know the
comfort of it. I hope you will always
be able to say in after-life that 3-011
had a good father. You cannot show
your affection for him so well or make
him so happy, as by doing }-our duty.
ggr The Chattanooga Times says
11 young man in that city, while call
ing upon a young lady on the Avenue,
became deeply interested in the study
of astronomy. In order to p >int out
to the lady the exact location of the
comet, it was necessary to draw up
very close to her so as to get her eyes
on a range with his, as it were. Just
as lie had almost succeeded in show
ing her where the new luminary was,
his arm delicately dropped around her
waist. She disengaged it with move
force than he thought was necessary,
and sharply observed, “You can’t
comet over me in that way, sir!”
Singular as it may seem, that young
man has entirely lost his interest in
the study of astronomy.
For pure grit an i a long-con
tinued patience 3-011 want to go to
Tolodo. A young lad}- iu that town
has sent one hundred and sixteen pie
ces of poetry to a newspaper, and
though all have beeu rejected she is
struggling with another.

A Touching Incident.
We heard a story told the other
day, that made our eyes moisten.
We have determined to tell it, just as
we beard it, to our little ones:
A company of poor children who
had been gathered out of the alleys
and garrets of the city were preparing
for their departure to new and dis
tant homes in the west. Just before
the time of starting on the Cars, one
of the boys was noticed aside from the
others and appeared very busy with a
cast off garment. The superintendent
stepped up to him, and found that he
was cutting a small piece out of the
patched linings. It proved to be bis
old jacket, which, having been re
placed by anew one, had beeu thrown
away. There was no time to be lost.
“Gome John, come,” said the super
intendent, “what are you going to do
with that old piece of calico ?”
“Please sir,” said John, “I am cut
ting it to take with me. My dear
mother put the lining into this old
jacket for me. This was a piece of
her dress, and it is all I have to re
member her by.”
And as the poor boy thought of
that dear mother’s love, and of the
sad death-scene in the old garret
where she died, he covered his face
with his hands and sobbed as if his
heart would break. But the train
was about leaving, and John thrust
the little piece of calico into his bo
som to remember his mother by, hur
ried into a car and was soon far away
from the place where he had seen so
much sorrow. We know many an
eye will moisten as the story is told
and retold throughout the country,
and a prayer will go to God for the
fatherless and motherless in all great
cities and places. Little readers are
your mothers still spared to you ?
Will von not show your love by obe
dience? That little boy who loved
so well, surely obeyed. Bear in mind
that if you should one day have to
look upon the face of a dead mother,
no thought would bo so bitter as to
remember that you had given her
pain by your wilfulness and disobe
dience.— Exchange.
How to tell a Mad Dog.
A genuine case of hydrophobia,
even in the dog, is a very rare occur
rence. But when the disease does
manifest itself, its symptoms are
marked and easily defined, and to one
who has given the subject any atten
tion there should be no mistake con
cerning a proper diagnosis. The
trouble is that to persons of superfi
cial observation an epileptic fit—very
common among dogs—may be mista
ken for hydrophobia. The dog, when
suffering from an attack of epilepsy—
a sure guaranty that he is not mad—
runs about wildly, staggers, falls down,
regains his feet, toddles about mechan
ically, froths at the mouth (which is
another positive indication that he is
not mad, for a mad dog never froths
at the month,) and, as if entirely de
prived of sight, runs against anything
in his way. With the mad dog the
case is entirely different. He drivels,
at the mouth, is possessed of perter
natural strength, and never staggers
or falls except to die. He does not
bite mankind, but rather avoids soci
ety. He takes long journeys of thir
ty or forty miles to vent his restless
desire for motion. When journeying
he does not walk or run, but proceeds
in a slouching manner—a kind of trot.
His aspect is dejected.—His appear
ance is very characteristic, and if once
seen can never afterward be mistaken.
Cincinnati Gazette.
Good Advice
All the young wcftoen in tho coun
try would do well to heed the words
nf Bishop Foster, addressed to the
graduating class of the Wesleyan Fe
male College in Cincinnati. He said:
Learn your obligations to the past;
he careful of the present, and prepare
yourself, for the great future is before
you. Tho reign of brain has come.
Though you may not be found on the
battle-field or at the ballot-box, you
can build up the future by building
up the men. You live in a particu
larly exciting time, when you have
placed in opposition to you one of the
greatest of vices, and you women will
conquer if all of those of your sex
who are real women will combine.
Beware of coxcombs and libertines.
They are fools, whether they know it
or not. By your conduct toward them
send them from your presence. Re
serve your hearts and love for men.
Bo not what is known as a “fashiona
ble” woman. There is nothing so
foolish as such a woman, and none
but fools admire her.
