    THE SOLDIERS’ COLUMN?
GO AND PRAY.
Soldier, if you desire salvation, and want
to know what, to do, I advise y tn \ to S° 1 ’ ls
very day to the Lord Jesus Christ, in the
first, private place you can find, and entreat
Him in prayer to save your soul. .Go and
Him that you have heard that He
receives sinners, and has said, “ Him that
cometh.onto me 1 will in no wise cast out.’'
Tell Him that you are a poor sinner, and
that you come to Him on the faith of His
own invitation. Tell Him you put your
self wholly and entirely in His hands, that
you feel vile and helpless and hopeless in
yourself, and that unless He saves you, you
have no hope to be saved at all. Beseech
Him to deliver you from the guilt., the
power and the consequences of sin. Be
seech Him to pardon you and wash you in
His own blood. Beseech Him to give you
a new heart, and the Holy Spirit in your
soul. Beseech Him to give you grace and
faith and will and power to be His disciple
and servant from this day forever. Oh,
soldier, go this very day, and tell these
things to the Lord Jesus Christ, it you re
ally are in earnest about your soul. Go
and pray.
Tell Him in your own way, and your
own words. If a doctor came to see you
when sick, you could tell him where you
felt pain. If your soul feels its disease in
deed, you can surely find something to tell
Christ. But go and pray.
Fear rot because your prayer is stam
mering, your words feeble, and your lan
guage poor. Jesus can understand you.
Just as a mother understands the first bab
blings of her infant, so does the blessed Sa
viour understand, sinners. He can read a
sigh, and see a meaning in a gro%n. But
go and pray.
Despair not because you do not get an
answer immediately. While you are speak- i
ing, Jesus is listening. If He delays an an
swer, it is only for wise reasons, and to try
if you are in earnest. Pray on, and the .
answer will surely come. Though it tarry,
wait for it. It will surely come at last. — i
But go and pray.
I CAN—I WILL. |
Such must be, in effect, the motto of ev- ,
ery one who attains high honors, or makes j
a worthy man of himself. No man inher-1
its honor from his parentage. However, '
the fact that one’s father was an excellent
citizen, a man of honor and integrity, cau
ses his son to be regarded in a very favor- .
able light—especially is this true if wealth i
and splendor adorn his father’s name; yet, I
all the lustre which he borrows from his
honored ancestry, and from wealth, will, in
the estimation of the intelligent and just,
fail to atone for the want of individul
worth. To be great —to deserve honor—
great and honorable deeds must be done.
The veil of ignorance must be torn from
the intellect, the principles of a high-toned
morality must envelope the soul, a proper
rule must be exetcised over the spirit—
these are the first steps towards honor.—
He who would be honored by his race,
must adopt the motto, “ I can —I will; ”
and this motto should apply to everything
which duty requires him to do. He must
feel his ability to accomplish any particular
work, and then he must will to do it. The
motto, “ 1 can—l will,” will take one grad
ually up the ladder of fame, until a bright
halo of glory will encircle his brow.
Let the private adopt, as his motto, “ ‘ 1
can —I will** be a good private,” then he
will attract the admiration of his officers
and the esteem of the good.
Let the officer adopt the same motto,
and he will soon stand at the head of his
rank.
Adopt this motto with reference to indi
vidual attainments —intellectual and moral
—and soon you will gather intellectual and
moral strength that will serve as a bulwark
• to the soul.
Let the Christian in camp adopt the
motto, ‘“I can—l will’ be a consistent
Christian,” and ere long he will diffuse a
light on all around him, which will reveal
the horrors of the pathway leading to hell,
that sinners will be constrained to abandon
their ways and glorify God.
To effect anything good or great in this
life, we must feel “I can,” and resolve “I
will.” ■)
EARNESTNESS IN PRAYER.
The Syrophenician woman was deter
mined when she w’ent to the Saviour. His
apparent harshness only made her the
more anxious, and because the blessing was
not immediately granted, she was not dis
couraged ; but as a man, from labor, is
more fitted to endure, so she, from the ear
nest exercise of faith, was strengthened to
put forth greater efforts, and, undismayed,
continue her pressing suit. Instead of be
ing cast down, she increased her earnest
ness, and, worshipping him, said—“ Lord !
help me.” She showed her deep humility
she consented to take the dogs’ portion,
even the crumbs, and then the blessing im
mediately followed.
Reader, when you pray, are you earnest
as was this woman ? And do you remem
ber that Christ withheld the blessing from
her until she gave evidence of her humili
ty ? Oh ! be earnest, be determined when
you seek the blessing, and the blessing will
come, providing you humbly seek it. God
says He will resist the proud.
The soldier of the South offers himself
to death for a righteous cause. It is neith
er fame nor reward that leads him to the
field. He goes from a sense of duty to de
fend the right. He throws himself into the
breach to prevent the entrance of tyranny
upon the fair fields of the South. Never
since the Greeks flocked to a common stan
dard against the Persian invader, have he
roism and a holy cause been so gloriously
linked together. The soldier of the South
is sustained in his trials by the purest sen
timent. of patriotism that ever burned in
the heart of man. Let us cherish this sa
cred fire by every means within our pow
er. Let us cherish the soldier, not only
by the expression of our deepest sympa
thies, but let us evince by acts like the one
proposed, that he is our first care as well
as our best hope, and that we can not hon
or him too highly or cherish him too de-
■ votedly.
THE CHILDREN’S COLUMN.
Zfefltr J/r. Ells:
I have found out the answer of the ‘Cha
rade’ in last Saturday’s paper, and beg
1 leave to ask if it is not the first is
■ pen, the second is i, and the third is tent;
all combined making penitent. Your little
friend, Nellie L d.
The Lil tie Boy’s Inquiry—“ What is
Heaven ? ”
Oh! what is heaven. I want to know,
And what is passing there;
Do gentle rivers brightly flow,
And flowers perfume the air?
Yes, there are flowers which never fade,
And streams that never dry;
And there is known no evening shade
To dim the glorious sky.
Oh ! what is heaven, I want to know ;
Are children playing there?
And do they thirst and hunger now,
And feel a parent’s care ? I
No. never do they hunger there,
Nor precious moments waste ;
But beauteous as the angels are,
With Christ’s own image-graced.
Oh ! what is heaven ? I want to know
If the field flowers bloom on high,
And in meadows green, like those below,
Do birds and insects fly ?
I can not tell, my dearest boy,
If aught like these there be ;
But every one will be full of joy,
And loveliest sights will see.
I
But where is heaven ? Oh ! is it far
Above the ground I tread ?
Or is fixed in yonder star,
Whose beams shine mildly red ?
No; ’tis the Saviour's smiling face
That makes the heaven above;
And would we reach that happy place,
' We here His name must love.
t
’Tis in His word that we are told
Os bliss beyond the sky,
And how to obtain a crown of gold,
All glorious when we die.
Dear Jesus, may I now be thine,
And have my sins forgiven :
Along with saints and angels shine
With Thee—for that is heaven,
THE GOOD SAMARITAN.
One day a Jewish lawyer came to the
Lord Jesus, and asked how he could reach
heaven. In return, Jesus asked what the
Scriptures said upon the subject; and the
man answered, for he was learned in the
Scriptures, “Thou shalt love the Lord thy
God with all thy heart, and with all thy
Isoul, and with aft thy strength,-and w ith all
thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.”—
I “ Thou hast answered right,” said the Lord
Jesus ; “ this do, and thou shalt live.” But
the man, willing perhaps to find a flaw in
the answer, and in order to excuse himself
‘ from this great law of love, asked, “ Who
is my neighbor ? ” And J esus answered
( by telling him a parable, or narrative,
; which was as follows :
“A certain man went down from Jeru-
I salem to Jericho, and fell among thieves”
■ —we are told there is a spot on this road
i called the red or bloody way, on account
of the blood which has been shed there by
, 1 robbers —and the thieves “ stripped him of
i his clothes, and wounded him, and went
I away, leaving him half dead. And by
1 chance there came down a certain priest
i that way; and when he saw him, he passed
1 by on the other side. And likewise a Le
vite, when he was at the place, came and
looked on him, and passed by on the other
i J side. But a certain Samaritan, as he jour
; neyed, came where he was; and when he
iJ saw him ” —did he say, as the others prob
ably did, ‘Perhaps the robbers are not far
, off—they may be back and rob me’? or,
i j ‘The poor creature is beyond help; there
is no need of my stopping in this dangerous
i 1 pass for his sake ’ ? or, ‘ Who knows but if
i I am found near this dead man, I may be
• accused as the robber and murderer? ’ Did
, the good Samaritan make excuses like these
! for not helping the poor man ? No; for
! the Lord Jesus continues the history:—
i, “ When the Samaritan saw him, he had
compassion on him, and went to him, and
.bound up his wounds, pouring • in oil and
wine, and set him on his own beast, and
; brought him to an inn, and took care of
him. And on the morrow, when he went
> away, he took out two pence,” then the price
of two day’s work, “ and gave them to the
host, mid said unto him, Take care of him;
and whatsoever more thou spendest, when
1 come again I will repay thee. Which,
now, of these three,” asked the Lord Jesus,
“ thinkest thou, was neighbor unto him who
fell among thieves ? And the lawyer an
swered, He that showed mercy on him.—
Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou
[ likewise.”
This beautiful story illustrates what it
means to be neighbors, as the Lord Jesus
meant we should be neighbors to each oth
er. What a tenter care did the good Sa
maritan show towards the poor stranger!
He did not grudge his time, nor his labor,
nor his money, if he could help him. And
thus it is by acts of love, sympathizing with
and helping others, that we fulfill the great
and blessed law of love given us by our
heavenly Father. And mark this, that
God does not require us to do great and
hard things, which only rich, or strong or
grown-up people can do; he asks us to be
kind one to another, tender hearted'' so
that all children, even the smallest, may
be.comc followers of Him “who went about
doing good.”— \ChildCs Index.

HOUSE KEEPERS’ COLUMN.
The following receipt for a hair tonic is
as good as the best, and excelled by none:
Rose water, eight ounces; borax, one
drachm; olive oil, pure and fresh, two flu
idounces ; aqua ammonia, three fluidrachms.
Add the borax to the rose-water, and when
dissolved add the oil anti ammonia, and
shake all well together. If more perfume
is required, a few drops of oil of bergamot,
or any other essential oil preferred, may be
added.
Light Soda Cakes. —Five eggs, one and
a quarter pounds of sugar, three-quarters of
a pound of butter, a teaspoon nearly lull ot
soda, in a gill of water; as much flour as
will knead it into biscuits; knead it well,
roll it out thin, cut it with a large round
cutter, and bake briskly, of a pale brown.
Soft Gingerbread.—Three teacups of
molasses, two cups of buttermilk, one cup
of butter, one tablespoonful of ginger, one
ditto of soda or saleratus, one ditto of cori
ander.seeds, one egg; put in as much flour
as will make a thick batter; put in pie
pans, and smooth over with a knife; don’t
let. it be nt all runny. This will make six
pie pans full.
Receipt for Strangury, when produced
by a blister: Goldbeater’s leaf, laid on the
plaster, obviates this without preventing
the usual action of the cantharides.
Perkins Cake. —One pint of flour, one
cup of sugar, one egg, one cup of milk, one
teaspoonful of cream of tartar, half a tea
spoonful of soda or saleratus, a piece of
butter as large as a walnut.
Cleaning and Polishing Marine Shells.
—Take boiling water; to every quart add
half a gill of muriatic acid, and let it boil;
put in the shells while boiling, let them re
main in one minute; take them out, dip
them in cold water instantly, the colder the
water the better; then, if not quite clean,
dip them in the boiling water and acid half
a minute, then again in cold water; then
dry with a cloth or brush. The acid should
be pure, unadulterated.
Accidents. — Always send off for a sur
geon immediately an accident occurs, but
treat as directed until he arrives.
Burns. — If the skin is much injured,
spread some linen pretty thickly with .chalk
ointment, and lay over the part, and give
the patient some brandy and water if much
exhausted; then send for a medical man.
If not much injured, and very painful, use
the same ointment, or apply carded cotton
dipped in lime-water or linseed oil. If you
please, you may lay cloths dipped in ether
over the parts, or cold lotions.
Scalds.— Treat the same as burns, or
cover with scraped raw potato; but the
chalk ointment is the best. In the absence
of all these, cover the parts with treacle,
and dust on plenty of flour.
Body in Flames.— Lay the person down
on the floor of the room, and throw the ta
ble-cloth, rug, or other large cloth, over
him, and roll him on the floor.
Dirt in the Eye.— Place your forefinger
upon the cheek bone, having the patient
before you ; then draw up the finger, find
you will probably be able to remove the
dirt; but if this will not enable you to get
at it, repeat this operation while you have
a netting.needle or bodkin placed over the
eyelid; this will turn it inside out, and
enable you to remove the sand, or eyelash,
&c., with the corner of a fine silken hand
kerchief. As soon as the substance is re
moved, bathe the eye with cold water, and
exclude the light for a day. If the inflam
. mation is severe, take a purgative, and use
a refrigerant lotion.
Lime in the Eye.— Syringe it well with
warm vinegar and water (one ounce to
eight ounces of water) ; take a purgative,
and exclude’light.
How to Cook Veal.— Knuckle of Veal.
—Get a knuckle of a leg of veal; saw it in
three parts, but not to separate it; scald
it, and put it for a few minutes in cold wa
ter ; then place it in a stew-pan with some
good second stock, an onion or two, a fagot
of herbs, a. few sprigs of parsley, a carrot,
a turnip and a head of celery, a blade of
mace, a slice of raw ham, fat and lean;
stew it for several hours, until the gristle
is soft; take out the veal; cover it over to
keep it white; strain the liquor; wash a
pound of rice, and boil it in this liquor;
add half a pint of cream or milk; when the
rice is done, put your veal again into it to
make hot; dish your veal carefully, and
season the rice with pepper and salt, and
pour over the veal; if with parsley and
, butter instead of water, use the stock from
it; and chop fine some boiled parsley, and
mix into' it.
Knuckle of Veal, Stewed.— Place your
knuckle of veal in a stewpan ; if the knuckle
is a very large one, it may be divided into
two or three pieces for the sake of eonveni
ence; put in the pan with it a few blades
of mace, a little thyme, an onion, some
whole pepper, a burnt crust of bread ; and
cover with from three to four pints of wa
ter ; cover down close, and boil; when it
has boiled, place it by the side of the fire,
and let it simmer for at least two hours*
take it up; keep it hot while you strain its
liquor; then pour the gravy over it; and
send it to table with a lemon garnish.
Knuckle of Veal, Boiled.— Put sufficient
water over it to cover it; let it boil gen
tly, and, when it reaches a boil, as much
salt as would fill a dessert-spoon may be
thrown in ; keep it well skimmed, and boil
until tender; serve with parsley and but
ter and a salted cheek.
Allow twenty minutes to each pound.
Three-quarters of a pound of rice may
be boiled with it, or green peas, or cucum
bers ; turnips and small spring onions may
be put in, allowing them so much time
from the cooking of the veal as they will
require.
Another H r ag.— Let the knuckle boil
slowiy in sufficient water till it is tender;
make a sauce of butter and flour, with
parsley in itchopped fine; slice a lemon,
and garnish the dish with it.
Sponge Cake.—Take the yolks of five
eggs, the white of one, half a pound of su
gar, one teacupful of water; beat sugar,
eggs and water together, until thick as
pound cake, then add six ounces of flour.
Cough Mixture. —One teaspoonful of
Camphor (liquid;) one teaspoonful of Lo
belia (liquid;) one teaspoonful of Lauda
num (liquid;) two tablespoonfuls of Honey
or Loaf Sugar. Dose- —one teaspoonful
night and morning, or when the fit of
coughing is very severe.
