KK K HIM WHEN UK'S DOWN.
When the aim of proßperitr’a shining.
And a man's growing rich everv day-
When in ease and comfort reclining.
And golden sikh.h*sh crowns his way—
How friends Mill then ft tick about him;
But if fortune abonid happen to frown,
How quickly he'll Ret the “cold shoulder,"
And be “kicked because be is down.”
How kindlv the world will amilc on him
When life with successes abound!
How cordially, blandly ’twill greet him
As in pleasure he’s riding around!
But tbeu let reverses o’ertako hi u,
And frier Is both in country and town
Hare not a kind sentence to cheer him,
But will kick him as soon aa he’s down.
Bet a man get position or wealth,
Matters not if by intrigue or fi aud,
The world nods approvingly at him.
And his acts will loudly applaud;
What though he may be a great villain.
With the simple, the wise, ami the clown.
While he's up, lie’s a “tiptop fellow,"
But they U “kick him if ho ever gets down.”
When a man has plenty of “greenbacks,”
And lie’s healthy and festive and gay,
He’s counted a “bully good chum” then,
And the crowd approves all he may say;
But just let him lose his treasures.
Perchance, too, his wealth may be gone,
He’ll get to Im* nobody quickly,
Aud sure to be “kicked when he’s down.”
What’s flu use of being moral or honest,
Or strive to I>c uplight and true;
For uideas a man has “lots of money,”
The world’s bound to“]*ut him right through;” ;
They'll for him.” certain and surely,

And all stand ready to “snub” him.
And “kick him because he is down.

The Death-bed o* Prince Albert.
Most of our readers are probably fa
miliar with the remarkable saying of Prince
Albert when upon Lis dying bed:
■J have had wealth, lank, and power,
but if this were all 1 lllid, how wretched I
should be now.
Itis’k of a * olell for me,
Li i me hale uiysell in lo.”
It is not to conceive of a more brilliant
mid happy lib than was that of Prince Al
ii rt. lie was a child of illustrious birth,
and the heir to what would generally lie
considered large wealth. Toe home lit
um childhood was one of the most impos
ing ol hurouiiil castles, which feudal pride
aud opnleuee had reared upon the heights
of Germany. In his early youth lie en
joyed every privilege of education earth
could give. Tile last teuc!ii-rx ot Europe
guided his mind in all branches of know!
edge. Obsequious attendants auucipuLed
ins wants, ns he freely moved amid the
luxurious surroniiihngs ot the castle. Fa
miliarity v i h the most cultivated society:
gave lu.n tn highest polish of manners,
and m. de him familiar Willi the etiqetii* m
is.urts. He was oy nature endowed with a
tine mind, much amiability of characier,
and remarkable beauty of person.
Prince Albert thus early In came, in per
sonal attractions, iu mental culture, in
princely bearing, one of the most accom
plished gentlemen in Europe. When;
about eighteen years of age he visited the
royal family iu England, to which tie was:
nearly related. In the gorgeous saloons j
of Windsor Uastle and of Buckingham l’al
ace he was an .honored guest, lie war.
introduced to a circle of society us bril
liant and refined us has ever been known;
upon earth. And here he won the love ot I
lus cousin, the Princess Victoria, the heir
ess to the throne of England.
Their marriage was an event in which!
not only alioiiristiaudum, bat every gov- j
eminent on earth was interested. Embas
sadors flocked to Luudou, iu honor of the
occasion, from all the principal dynasties
of Ailieu and Asia. Westminister’s euthe- '
dial was never before crowded with such j
an assemblage. All that earthly ambition !
could desire was now attained hy Prince j
Albert. 110 was in the enjoyment oi \
wealth unsurpassed in the visions of ro
malice. lie had lank which placed him j
on .iii equality with the most illustrious!
kings. He had power such as few mortals j
ever posssossed, and yet without the pres
sure ol 101 l and responsibility.
An attractive family of sons anil daugh
ters grew up around him. He hud no pa
ternal anxiety as to pio.ision for their fu
ture. As each chill was burn, the British j
Parliament voted that child, lor the sup
port oi the dignity of the royal family, an
annual income of about one hundred thou
sand dollars.
Ulle daughter rieilthe heir apparent;
of tne crown of Prussia. Thus there is ,
opened to her, perhaps, the highest posi
tion which a lady cun now occupy upon
this globe—that of the Empress of Ger
many. The eldest sou, heir to the throne
ol Great Britain, married into tin royal !
family of Denmark. Other brilliant !
alliances open before others of the chil
dren.
In the midst of all this prosperity, in
the meridian of his days—lining but forty
two years of agi—sudden disease strikes
Prince Albert down, and lie lies upon a
dying bed. The regal conch is draped
with an imperial canopy. The splendors ’
of a palatial chamber glitter mound the
| bed. The highest dignitaries of church!
and State arc present with their sympa
thy and homage.
Hut death is the equalizer of prince anil
peasant. The queen is hut a woman
weeping, broken hearted, over her dying
husband. The royal children are but
sons and daughters sobbing in uncontrol-,
lube' grief over their dying father. Prince
Albert is but a man groaning, fainting,
sinking in death—passing from the shad
ow of an earthly crown to the tribunal of j
God, where, like tile humblest subject in
Ins realms, he must answer for every
thought word and deed done in the body.
In a moment of cessation from pain, lie
looked up to the weeping onesaromid him ;
and ntt ue.l tue m m r.ui 1 ■ wor. s :
“I have had wealth, rank, and power.
But if tiiis were all I had, liow wretched
should Ibo now.
Hack of ■ • *, cleft for me.
Let me hide myself in thee.’”
He had, we believe, something more.
Faith in an atoning Saviour sustained him.
He had professed faith in Jesus, and all
who knew him believed him to be a sincere
: disciple.
Reader ! yon will soon be placed on this
dying bed. Have you this faith to sus
| tain you in that dread hour ?~ Advance.

His Own Ex cutionor A Murderer
Starves Himself to Death.
j On the 25th of May last Christopher
Schwartz, a half-witteil German, employed
ill the Goshen jail as watchman, was clink*
oil to death in an attempted escape hy a
negro named Alexander Diamond and a
white man named Morgan To this at
tempted escape and resulting murder an
other inmate of the jail, Jerry MeDanielx,
was privy. Diamond and Morgan were
tried at tile last term of the Court, anil
were seutt need to tt n years’ imprisonment
each. McDaniels was not tried, and re
mained in jail. On tile l ltli of October
McDaniels refused to take either food or
drink. He would give no explanation of
Ins reasons, talking to no one, but persist
ently maintaining a moody silence. Two
of his fellow-prisoners united with him in
his plan. Their names were Jerry Lucy,
from Goshen, awaiting trial for petit lar-
I ceuy, and John McCarthy, from Alills
i burg, who was serving out a four months’
sentence on a conviction for the same of
fence. All persisted 111 their refusal to eat
or drink until they became very weak, and
on a physician certifying that long, r con
finement would cause death. McCarthy
was released and Lucy was bailed by his
friends. No such luck was ill store for
McDaniels. He still persisted in his de
sign. To the inquiries ot tie* keeper as
to whether he wanted anything lie return
ed surly answers, and resolutely refused
all proffers of sympathy and relief. In
the early part of last week a physician
who had been called said that lie must
take a tuiilespi ion oil of whiskey in half a
cup of milk every two hours or die. He
took the mixture a few times, and then
clos' and hi- < 111 when the cup was proffer
ed him. He also refused to lie upon his
bed, and as long as he was strong enough
roll- and off'it to the stone floor as often as
his attendant placed him upon it. He
rein ed to see a clergyman, even when
told th. t he must die, and w hen Mr. Bald
win, the turnkey, asked him if he wished
to leave any message hi* uier iy muttered
an oath, and at night when all was quiet
he liliten the jail with blasphemies. For
seventeen days he took no sustenance so
tar as is known, with the exception of a
few cups of whiskey and milk, and finally
an Thursday, October lib, ho died, liis
death was fearful. He was conscious to
the last, aud died with an unfinished curse
upon his lips. His death by lus own de
liberate net was perhaps a fitting end to a
life Limt was not brightened by a single
good or honorable act, and the si'lf-inthct
cd agony was but a natural result ot the
uadcvi.itiug cruelty timt marked all his
acts towards everything to which cruelty
would possibly lie shown.
Tho Happy Man and True Gentleman.
The happy mflii was born in the city of
regeneration, iu the parish of repentance
an to life. He was educated at the school
of obedience, and lives now by faith in
perseverance. lie works at the trade of
diligence, “notwithstanding lie lias a large
estate m the country of Christian content
ment, and many times does jobs of self
denial. He w ars the plain garb of hu
mility. He often walks in the valley of
self-abasement, and not tin frequently climbs
the mountain of spiritual mindeduess.
lie breuktastsevery morning upon spiritual
prayer, and sups every evening upon the
same. He has meat to cat that the world
knows not of. and his drink is the sincere
milk of tile world. Thus happy lie lives
and happy he dies.” Happy is he who
lias gospel submission in his will, due or
der in his affections, sound peace ill his
conscience, sanctifying grace iu his soul,
true humility in Ins heart, leal divinity in
his breast, the Redeemer’s yoke on his
neck, a vail] world under his feet, and a
crown of glory over his head; happy is the
life of siieli a person. In order lo attain
which, pray fervently, believe firmly, wait
patiently, work abundantly, live liolilv,
die daily, watch your h alt, guide JK>Ur
senses, redeem your time, love (Jurist and
tong for glory. A true gentleman is God’s
seivaiit, the whole world’s master and Ins
ow n man. Virtue his business study, his
recreation, contentment, liis rest unit hap
piness, Ins reward; God is liis father, the
church is his mother, the saints are his
brethren, and he is a friend to all that
need him; Heaven is his inheritance,
religion is liis mistress, loyalty aud justice
his two maids of honor, devotion his chap
lain, chastity his chamberlain, sobriety his
butler, temperance his cook, hospitality
his amiable housekeeper, providence his
good steward, charity his treasurer, piety
is mi .tress of the house, and discretion is
porter to let m and out as is most fit.
Thus is liis whole family made up of vir
tues, and he is the true master of the
family. He is necessitated to take the
world in his way to heaven; but lie walks
through it us fast as he can; and all liis
business by the way is to glorify the name
of Goil and do good to mankind. Take
uim nil in two words— He is a man—a
Christian. —From (in old Theological Maga
zine, 171)7.
The plain commonplace direction of
the Scripture, everywlier'- offered the
backslider, cannot possibly fail of being
under food. The Bible says : If you are
conscious of doing wrong, then end it.
Turn on your track and begin again.
.Start anew where you left oft. If we
doubt our present experience, it is never
worth while at all to chase it up. A fresh
one will lie better. We are just to go
back, and lay over the foundations. It
oftentimes happens that some flaw in ma
teria!, or construction, render, a most
stately building a nuisance to the neigh
borhood. end a shame to the architect.
He knows that the work on it ns it is with
out any alterations, will only result in a
botch. It would lie far wiser to com
mence with t! - lowest stones, and do tin*
■•ntire work as it ought to be done. —
Charles S. Hohiuson.

An authentic copy of an entry of the
birth of Washington in the Bible of his
mother is in the follow ing words: “George
Washington, son of Augustine and Mary
his wife,was horn ye 11th day of February
1732. abont tarn in the morning, mid was
baptized the 3d of April following, Be
verly Whiting and Capt. Chriatopliei
Brooks, godfathers, and Mrs. Mildred
Gregory, godmother.”
Anew and cruel invention is the intro
duction of living butterflies into the centre
pieces of flowers, which usually adorn the
middle of the table at fashionable dinner
and supper parties. The poor insects are
fastened by a fine wire, which is passed
through their bodies, and concealed among
! the flowers.
Modern Ejjypt.
The land of the Khedive is likely soon
j to rival in greatness the ancient kingdom
lof the I’haroalis and the Ptolemies. Aloil
i ern Egypt cannot, it is true, compare with
ancient Egypt in the number of ltsiuhub
itunts, for Diodorus tells us that the kilter
contained thirty thousand towns and vil
lages, w hile Herodotus tells us that in the
reign of Anutsis there wi re in Egypt twen
ty thousand cities. What successive
sovereigns, however, from Sesostris to the
caliphs failed to effect, or accomplished
only in part, lias been completely achieved
under the rule of the Khedive, bv the
opening of the Suez Canal, while Alexan
dria and Caroi are fast becoming cities of
palaces, and the wealth of the country is
every day increasing.
Western prejudice attributes the pres
ent ignorance of the Mussulman popula
tion of Turkey to Islmnism, mid concludes
that the religion of Mohammed is a bar to
all human progress. Aliy one, however,
who visited Egyptten years ago, and
coqkl now see the vast improvements that
have been and are still being made by the
Khedive, would at once have his preju
dices very mueh modified if not altogether
removed. He would see the harbor of
Alexandria, the fin st, probably, in the
world,*crowded with the shipping of all
nations, with anew breakwater and new
docks in course of completion, warehouses
tilled with cotton, grain and other agri
cultural produce ready for export, rail
ways in operation or in course of eonstrue-
I tiou -everywhere, in fact, the signs of iu
i creasing civilization and prosperity. Ho
would see Alexandria itself more like a
European than an Eastern eitv, with its
magnificent buildings and its “Palace des
Consuls” that exceeds in beauty any
square to be found in Europe. He would
see the land, irrigated by the means of
machinery, everywhere teeming with rich
crops of wheat, maize, lmrley, beans and
peas, clover and flax, rice, sugar-cane, to
bacco and coffee, liuligo and madder; the
gardens producing apricots in May ;
peaches, plums, apples, pears and carets
in June ; grapes, tigs ana prickly pears in
July ; pomegranates, lemons and dates in
August; oranges in October ; sweet lem
ons and bananas in November ; anil the
mulberry and Seville oranges in January, j
(n olden times we know there was “corn 1
in Egypt,” and cotton, too, of the best j
description. Even six years ago there j
were not less than two hundred steam |
plows at work in cotton cultivation. !
Every mechanical aid to production has,
in fact, been made use of, and the result
is au enormous increase of wealth, both to
the people and their rulers.
The romance of travel in Egypt is dis
appearing. A lien bridge has been re
cently put by the Khedive over the Nile,
so tiiat travelers can go direct iu carriages
from their hotel to the pyramids without
being obliged, as formerly, lo cross the
I liver in boats and finish the excursion on
t camels or donkeys. The old “di'halieah.”
j or Nile boat, is giving way to the compar
atively luxurious Nile steamer, and the
clmruis of that dreamy Epicurean life.
| floating down the river, will soon become
a memory of the past. No more encamp
jim nts beneath the myriad stars and the
| wondrous sky of an Egyptian night,
| amidst the labyrinth of pillars, obelisks
aud fallen temples of Luxor or Kuruuk.
Instead oi, as heretofore, passing the
! night on land under a tent, the traveler
! now sleeps in his comfortable bi rth, oil
j board the Khedive's steamer, and “does”
j the Nile in three weeks instead of three
| months, ns in the palmy days of the “de
j hubeuhs. ” During the winter of 1871, be
fore the steamers began to ply, the price
I asked for a fii’st-elass boat was from $l5O
; to SOOO a month ; while now the voyage—
-1585 miles -from Cairo to Phil®, a few
miles above the cataract, and back again,
I can be made by the passenger steamers
I on the Nile belonging to the Khedive nd
; ministration, at n cost of $220, including
I steamer, living, guides, and all other nec
essary expenses.
Sentimiint.—Young lady (to the loving
one who lias timidly made a request):
“Why, Gussie you great, big stupid! what
on earth do you want with a lock of my
hair ? T v - got a whole chignon at home
you can lake away and wear next to your
Heart if it pleases you.”
