There is a great deal of sin in the world which tho ordinary conscience neither recognizes nor condemns. With most of us the stuudard of right and wrong is purely conventional. If wo do not break the letter of the Ten Commandments; if we keep clear of acts which public opinion forbids; if we maintain a character upon which society sets no brand, then we feel at peace within ourselves and make sure that we are God’s elect. W e do not see what subtle and Car-reacU lag things good and evil are—how they in tenvenve themselves into all our acts, our words and motives, and secret thoughts even; and how they depend, not upon the fashion of the. hour or the place, but upon eteruai and unchangeable principles. An enlight ened and sensitive conscience would see sin in u thousand things which pass with the majority as indifferent, if nice not actually praiseworthy.

It rouses within which man bitter, class bad, resentful feelings, sets against class. Its tendency is to destroy self-respect, and let a man once lose that and there is no telling vvliat ho raav be¬ come. Again, to despise one’s neighbor is an offence against social held'together unity. The social organism can only be by a true and proper recognition of the useful¬ ness and necessity of each individual to the whole. manifold, Society is one body. Its mem¬ bers are but they are all knit to¬ gether in the closest bonds. There is no such thing as reuJ independ¬ ence. And hence for any man to despise his neighbor be is just as wrong head and fooii.su as it would for the to say to the feet, “I have no need of you;” for his in¬ fluence, as far as it goes, operates to the disorganization of society—to the break¬ ing up of that unity and sympathy upon which the general Despising hapiness and wall being depend. your neighbor is.to sin against your own soul.

The mother bee starts for a new home, and because, of this the other bees of the hive get into an ex¬ citement which raises the heat of the hive some four degrees, and they must die un¬ less they leave their heated apartments, and they follow the mother bee and alight on the branch of a tree, and cling to each other aud hold on until a eonunltteeof two or three bees have explored tin-region and found the hollow of a tree or rock not far off from a stream of water, and they here set up a new colony, and ply their aromatic industries, and give themselves to the manufacture of the saccharine edible.

LITTLE BOY SAVES THREE, hern of Ten Years Foils Playmates Out of the Water. Through the heroism of Jimmie Quick, little a lad of ten years, the lives of three boys, ranging from five to nine years old, were saved from drowning in Underhill Pond, in Hudson, N. Y. Tlie ice gave way while the isds were riding on hand sleds, and they all fell in the water. Young Quick, who hud been skating hurried near¬ by, hoard their cries for help and to the spot. He threw hirhself upon his breast, and crawling to the edge of tho hole, with a “shinny stick,” succeeded in pulling the three lads, one after the other, out of the water to a place of safety. Chester Thornton, age five, had gone down twice, and and it was with the greatest that exertion at the risk of his own life Quick finally pulled him out.

I® the November Geographical Jour na i W e find a communication from Sir Clemente Markham, who desc.vibes how Daron Nordenskiold reasoned out the poasibillty of finding fresh water by boring strong hard crystaline rock. Baron Nordenskiold’s idea was that by boring through the granite rocks he would strike water bearing fissures. He therefore selecled tho rocky islets on the Swedish coast which serve as pilot, and light stations, and complet *“« he obtained *»?“■? at ' 0Hn a depth ? of 100 ^7 feet, TT the texture of the rock preventing the salt. water from percolating through and conitninglinK AMth the sweet water ly« i»>K in the fissures. In the same num lier of the Geographical Journal there is nn article by M. K. A. Martel on “Itritish Caves aud Speleology.” M. Martel describes a descent into caves near Enniskillen, as well as other de scents in Ireland, and also describes what lie saw of underground rivers ami lakes in Derbyshire and in York shire. In the case of the Irish caves be says .heir flow.ng waters mus have an outlet under the sea, as there is no other way to account for the phenomenon. We refer to these mat tors, as they interest cable engineers, and hear upon a paper read before the Institution of Electrical Engineers during the last session by Mr. Benest. In this paper it was stated that it was believed bv some engineers that sub marine telegraph cables when laid on a continental slope, and In a direction more or less parallel to (he coast line, were liable to interruption from tho effects of an outburst of subterranean water on these slopes even in deep water. Deductions from the evidence furnished by Baron Nordenskiold and M. Martel seem to increase tlie belief iu the theory referred to in Mr. Ilen nos *- s P a P p r- Electrical Pjptvlew. “ Monkeys as tioia Mncters. Capt. E.

In many instances they lend valuable aid where a man is useless. They gather up the small pieces of quartz that would be passed unnoticed by the workingmen, and pile t..em up in lit¬ tle heaps tnat can easily be gathered up in a shovel and thrown into a mill. They work just as they please, some¬ times going down into the mines when they have cleared up all the debris on the outsides. They live and work to¬ gether without quarreling any more than men do. They are quite method¬ ical in the.,* habits, and go to work and finish up in the same manner as human beings would do under similar circumstances.
