Bible View of Ills Satanic Maj
esty—Tlie l)evil.
Whilst our foreparentn were hasking in
the sunshine of their terrestial paradise, and
enjoying the loveliness and purity of God’s
beneficence, thinking only of bliss and endlepa
happit esp, behold! there appears an unknown
being to oar Mother Kve, and be speaks to
her, through the iostmmcntality of the ser
pent, her own language ; for there bad been
no confounding of toogaes at that lime. She
stops to listen, and lo I he is familiar with
God’a commands to Adam before she was
foirued. He tells her, “Tea. hath Got! said,
Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden.”
Mother Eve replies, “We may eat of all the
fVuit except that of the tree which is in the
midst of the garden. We shall not eat of it,
neither touch it, lest we die.” He says, “Ye
shall not surely die if you eat of the tree of
Vnowltdge of good and evil, but on the other
hand your eyes shall be opened and ye shall
be as gods, knowing pood from evil."
Well, these things wcie just as the serpent
roid.Jiut he decayed oqr /oje pa rents us to
tf\e real meaning of the Lord phrase—that is,
that we should dlfc auto .Him. Now, it
seems that the serpent bepuiled woman—the
common sanke that crawls upon his breast
to-day, and lives upon dost in .its varied
fdVms— wop the grent destroyer of thehappi
ness of mankind, and he it was that received
the eurse from the Almighty* This is ac
cording to the Bible, and is truth, but there
is a deep mystery to be ciphered opt litre;
for how could a snake speak the langoagp of
onr foreporents, or how could he make them
obey him when God had placed man over all
the earth! Now, can we solve this mystery
by the Bible! I think so. The Word of
God says (be first shall be last and the last
first. Turn to the 12ih chapter of Revela
tions and see if a rebellions spirit was not
cast out into the earth. That oil serpent.
Called tbe Devil and Satan, and his angels,
were cost out with him They were spirits
of fallen angels, who rebelled agairst' God,
and drove them from heaven inio the earth,
and this evil spirit, who is so familiar with
things pertaining to the Godhead, surely en
tend die serpent and spoke to Mother Kve,
ns the Lord did to Adam, or as the spirit of
tbe Lord did to Balaam through the instru
mentality of the ass.
Now we are acquainted with all his ap
pellations, and he it was that deceived the
woman, wilfully, designedly and maliciously.
He was never created with the earth and
the things that therein are. He is a pri-nner
here, awaiting his doom, seeking whom he
may devour. His reign is of short duration
Whilst we are in tbe body he has no power
over tbe soul. He will be destroyed, with
all those that forget God, at tbe homing of
CLrißt our baviour. Read and understand.

Hovr a Woman Heads a Letter.
Did |pn ever hand a woman a letter just
as she was about to ait down to dinner? If
you are a married man, and very rhreful, yon
have very probably done so about once a
Jtar. II you are not very-careful, you have
forgotten yourself and committed that very
foolish act several times a year. It is awfully
wearing on a man to bring home a letter to
his wife jit meal liutr nan ttnm once a year.
Sometimes it is wearing oo the woman, es
pecially if the husband is quick tempered
and impulsive,
At noon Mr. Pettibone starts for home
and dinner. On his way he s'ops at the post
office, and, perchance, gels a letter directed
to bis wife. He has bten through the mill,
and, with a chuckle, very carefully places
the letter in bis inside coat pocket, and men
tally decides that Mary Jape will not get
that letter untiiafter dinner—not if be knows
it. Smiling at the stratagem of his little
game, he proceed? joyfully homeward, his
appetite waxing shat per each moment. As
he enters the house the savory viands salute
him. Little Charlie also salu'ea him with a
kiss, and leaves bis imprint, Goins into his
pocket for his handkerchief Mr. Pettibone
pulls out the unlucky letter without think
ing He makes a quick movement to return
kto hi® pocket, but bis perceptive wife is
*oo quick for him. and successfully reaches
lor the missive. She s'udies the super
scription, and declares it is from her Cousin
Annie. Then she looks closer, and save :
“Ko, it isn't either ; it’s from Mrs Smith
You remember Mib. Smith, John, who med
to attend our church when she resided here.
Sacb a nice woman. She said she would
write to me as soon as they got settled in
tbeir new home in— iu—where is it now.
they have located ?”
John remembered Mrs. Smith with pain
ful distinctness. They trad'd at the store
when they weie in town, and weal away
forgetting to liquidate a good si*d bill for.
foods He does not know where they are
pow, but knows where he wishes they were
His wife refers to the post-mark to uscer
tain the name o! the town where the Smiths
five. The mark is not plain, and she has to
eiudy some time- Jo bn becomes impatient
ready, and bids him go and "it down nod
she’ll he right along. He obeys, and site
open# tlfl» letter .“just to long it is."
She glances at. the ‘•igp tl ture. and find" it is
from Aunt Patience instead of Mrs. Smith.
It consists of six pages, and Aunt Patience
writer such lovely letters that she cannot re
sist 'he temptation of beginning to read it.
•By this time J'ohn calls from the dining
room. requesting her to come and pour the
tea ond help Chafiev to dinner. She goes
to her place at the table mechanically, still
reading.
“Jane wifi you lay nfide that letter a mo
ment ar.d pour the tea ?”
‘Jo n moment, my dear. Aunt Patience
is so delightfully sitna'ed this season. If
she bad a little more room she would invite
n« all down to stay a month. Isn't she
kind ?’’
By this time John pot qolte “riled,” so to
speak, and he exclaimed rnther sharply,
“Mary Jane Pettibone, will you drop that
internal old letter long enough to pour a cup
of fen for me T" '
Mrs. Pettibone flares up instantly.—
Throwing th# letter down, she turns out the
tea and shoves it across the table, saying,
“John Henry Pettibone,you are the most
unreasonable mnn T ever Saw Yon net as
though you were in danger of dying for wan*
of tea. Half of the time yon drink water at
dinner, and if it were not for interrupting
me you would not think of drinking tea this
noon. You know I can’t eat a meal with an
unopened loiter in the house You're just
as mean as you can he. You’re a bear,
that's what you are! l'fl go home to ma
to-day. so, now 1” (Weeps )
By this time Pettibone has finished his
dinner, after a fashion, and hastily arising
from the table, he tells his wife to go home,
or go to bed, or anywhere it soils her lo go.
Jamming his hat over his eyes, he leaves tbe
bouse.
The next time he gets a letter for his wife
on his way to dinner, he returns to tbe store,
sends a hoy up with the letter and a note to
his wife, saying business is so rushing he will
dine at a resianrant to day. He says that

The Eveniuit Star, Venus.
Many who admire the beautiful star which
now adorns the western sky nntil more than
three hours alter the commencement of twi
light may not be aware that its splendor is
derived fiom the sun ; that in it, like on the
earth, night curtains the landscape, morning
dawns, and seasons in quick succession come
and go. Lolty nmuntains'show that forces
jjruilur to that upheayed the Alps and
lifted the summit of the Andes above the
R»g*ons or eternal snow have rhlged sur
face nod covered it with hills and vales.
Variable spots prove that clouds float in its
atmosphere, and gleams of light, which dart
across its skv, afford evidence that in it
lightning seams the sky and ihe thunder’s
roll icvnrherates through the valleys.
But three hundred miles less in diameter
than ihe earth and revolving on its ax : s in
nearly the same time. Venus makes thirteen
revolutions around the sun while the former
makes eight As the inclination of the
planet tq the plane of its orbit is at least 54
degrees, its torrid zone is double that extent,
or 108 degrees, and its polar circles 54 de
grees from the poles. It therefore has two
frigid ard a torrid, hut no temperate zone
Since the sun must arrive at the equator and
depart from it to the distance of 54 degrees
twice in each of its years, there must be two
winters and two summers annually in the
torrid zdno and a winter and a summer in
each of the frigid.
Verms becomes the morning star after its
superior conjunction, when it appears,
through the telescope, crescent-shaped like
Ihe new moon. The orbits of this planet
and of - Mercury are within Ihe orbit of tbe
earth, and consequently they are never seeD
in opposition to the sun—that is, in the east
when the sun is in the west, or iu the west
and the son in the east. At its inferior
conjunction Venus is nearer to the earth
than any other planet except the moon, and
sometimes when approaching the greatest
distance, which it see m?||q,) i t cede from the
sun, casts a shadow ami is visible in the full
light of day.
If at the period when it is nearest to the
earth the Pnlightened part were fullv turned
towards ihe latter, this planet would appear
twenty times bs brilliant as it now does and
almost vie with the mono in dissipating ihe
oarKness of night Being situated at about
one-third less distance from tbe sun than
the earth, Venus receives more light from
that luminary than is received by the former
planet, and seems hot to require the aid of a
moon. Nevertheless, several astronomers
have affirmed that they had noticed such e
body, and have even gone so far as to calcu
late the orbit of the supposed satellite, but
tbeir observations have not been verified.
The transit of Venus, or its passage be
tween the eat th and the sun, when it appears
as a round duik spot moving slowlv across
the solar disc, have been made to assist in
determining tfce distance of the earth from
the central luroinefy. The last transit oc
curred in December, 1874 snd the next will
take place in December, 1882. As this can
Ire viewed in the United States it will
awaken a greater interest than the transit
which Rittenhouse and others observed more
than a century ago. But four transits of
Venus have been observed, and after 1882

*Tlie Author of “John Halifax,”
She was obliged to write for her daiiv

erable she was, she wrote a great deal. Of
course, with all this practice and with her
vast experience in sorrow, (for her pen wa«

life was still very sad and lonely. But in
1865, Opt. George Lillie Crnik, an officer

some yetrrs her* junior, addressed her and
succeeded in winning her hand. They have
proved most congenial companions,and their
married life has been nil that they cou'd

whose love for children amounts almost to a
passion, .who wrote “Philip My King,” has
been denied the happiness of feeling baby
fingers upon her cheeks or of ever hearing

row, but even this pain has been partially
assuaged. Strangely enough, one dark,

there came a loud ring at the bell and then
a furious knocking. On opening the door,
lying npou thp sill, they found a bn-ket in

removed they discovered a lovely little baby
only a few hours old. The child was
wrapped in one roll after another of India
muslin, anil on its breast was pinned a note
begging Mrs. Craik to be kind to the little
waif thus bought to her door, and assuring
her that no mean blood flowed In its tfeins.
Tenderly she lifted the iittle thing in her
