LADIES’ DEPARTMENT.
WOMAN’S INFLUENCE.
We will go back and unlock the
doors of the years in the sixteenth
century; that age so remarkable
for its great women. The two wo
men most conspicuous for the
evil and the crime they accom
plished on the stage of that century,
was Catharine dc Medici and Ma
ry Tudor. The one under the lil
lies of France, the other under the
Lion of England. They were
alike the shame and curse of the
nations they governed. At the
door of one, lies the awful night of
St. Bartholomew; at that of the
other, the fires of Smithtield.
Catharine de Medici, the Italian
Queen of Henry IL, ofFrancc, with
all her grace and winning chain of
manner, that fascinated all who
came within the spell of her influ.
ence, was false at heart. Her
dark, subtle, scheming brain was
always at work with plot and in
trigue. She had reached the very
summit of her ambition. As re
gent during the minority of her
son, Charles IX., she had ruled
France. But she feared the pow
er she so prized was about to pass
from her. The Protestant reli
gion wasspreadingall over Europe,
and Catharine was a Catholic, the
niece of a Pope. Still she pledged
her faith to the Ilugenot leaders,
and gave the youngest, fairest of
her daughters to the Protestant
King of Navarre. It was to cele
brate the royal marriage of Valois
and Navarre, that all the great lead
ers of the Ilugcnots and the chief
tains of the Protestants, were as
sembled in the gay city of Paris.
When her daughter had been the
Protestant King’s bride only five
days, and his vast train were sleep
ing, unarmed, anil secure at the
palace, Catharine de Medici pre
vailed upon the King to give the
order for the slaughter of all 11 u
genots in France. The world still
shudders at the deed—the massa
cre of St. Bartholomew. When
we think of the early girlhood of
Mary Tudor, and her wrongs and
sufferings, we feel something like
pity for the misguided woman.
But she stands at the bar of histo
ry, and the judgment it has pass
ed upon her, is, to brand her with
the uam n of “ Bloody Mary.” The
unhappy circumstances of her
■youth, no doubt, gave a strong bias
to the wo"S’"' moral tendencies of
her nature,and exerted an unhappy
influence on her career during the
five years she sat upon the throne
of England. She inherited the
fierce passions and self-will of the
Tudors, and the narrow bigotry
and ohstinancy of her Spanish an
cestors. The infamy of her name,
and its dreadful significance, still
clings to her. Let us leave the
dark picture and pass on. Anoth
er name looms up before us, con
nected with the history of France.
Madame Roland was the ruling
spirit of the French revolution,
'flic genius displayed in her sa
loons, among the great minds who
assembled at her bouse, (luring the
stormy day of France, amounted to
enchantment. From a child, she
held communion with the sages and
heros of every age, and peopled
her world with the ideal creations
of her own fancy. At first, she fol
lowed the teaching of her Christian
mother, hu:, afterwards, site im
bibed the misty infidelity of her
father. She was betrayed, tit last,
by those she had trusted, and her
last words were. “Ah! liberty,
how many crimes are committed
in thy name.”
We have presented woman as an
evil genius—shown the worst side
of her character. We have pre
sented her yielding to her own sel
fish, cruel hatred, with no thought
of her responsibilities to God be
fore her, and making ambition and
worldly honors the shrine at which
she worshipped. We wi 11 now show
a better picture:
Highland Mary was the inspira
tion of the plow-hoy poet, Robert
Burns. What is more touchingly
beautiful than his own description
ofhis betrothed. In imagination,
we see the crystal stream, the
hawthorne’s bloom and fragrance,
the open Bible, and the ruddy face
of the young poet, and Highland
Mary, with her beautiful face and
golden hair. We have never read
anything from the most cultivated
poets that could equal Burn’s
“Highland Mary.” and “ To Mary
in Heaven.” Beautiful record of a
love that lived beyond the dark
portals of the tomb. But the do
mestic circle is the true theatre of
woman’s power. Here she sits en
throned, and no true woman will
ask a higher position. The Chris
tian wife and mother’s influence
cannot he overestimated. I pity
any home where the mother is not
an humble Christian. Religion
should bo the corner-stone in
every house hold; and woman
should attract by the magic power
of love. Man is the creature of
ambition —woman of affection.—
Blot love out, and dark, indeed,
will be the universe of woman’s
heart. Woman’s love! Poets
have sung of it, painters have pic
tured it, hut the reality far ex
ceeds the representations of fancy.
“ Man’s love lives but with hope,
but woman’s heart still echos to
the music of the past.” Few men
succeed in life who do not owe
their elevation to some true wo
man’s love and influence. History
teaches many sad lessons of the in
stability of human greatness, that
has not for its foundation, the
“ Rock of Ages.” Let us profit by
its lessons. Our stations in life
may be very humble, but still we
will find work, earnest work,
enough to keep minds, hearts and
hands busy. Estelle.
THE BISHOPS TO BE SPARED.
VERY WELL —BUT HOW ABOUT ANOTH
ER OFFICER STILL MORE HARDLY
WORKED, AND STILL MORE IMPOR
TANT?
The last General Conference
mercifully released the Bishops, in
a great measure, from attending
the District Conferences. This
was necessary. Four years will go
far to determine the position of the
District Conference in our Church
machinery. If the presiding elders
arc able to throw interest and life,
variety and power, into their Con
ferences the common people will
crowd to thorn, and demand their
continuance. Tf however, these
Conferences sink to only tedious,
long-drawn Quarterly Conferences'
they will lose their interest and
their hold on our average members.
But our object now is to cal'
attention to an officer, largely con
tributing to the success of these
Church assemblies. We mean, in
plain English, the Cooks. Cannot
something he done for these over
worked friends of the Church?
Do we not expect too much from
them ? Some churches do manage,
so they say and think, to get along
without Bishops. But no Church
has yet tried the fearful experiment
of holding its usual or unusual as
semblies without Cooks. It would
he invidious to compare the men
tal strain of a Bishop with that of a
Cook. But the bodily strain, the
exhausting demand on hands,
bodies, nerves, with the tempera
ture of our District Conference
weather the harder portion is
surely born by the patient, per
spiring Cooks. I have often heard
votes of thanks to the Bishop who
presi7io(T~t)ut I was never present
at a District Conference where any
one had the gratitude and good
sense, to return thanks to the much
used, much abused, much-slighted
Cooks. Did you ever think what
would be the comic and tragic
results, if, at a crowded Conference,
the Cooks should strike? After
a splendid sermon, when the great
deep of all hearts lias been stirred,
all in admiration, all withdrawing
from the church under a spell, in.
vited to various tents, houses or
c images, when lo ! the astounding
discovery is made, “ Cooks all on a
strike !” I do solemnly fear, that
the effects of the grand morning
sermon would all vanish.
How often has the patient Cook
denied herself all attendance on the
popular services of the meeting,
hoping to gather as her reward, a
few crumbs from the table-talk of
her guests, for whose comfort she
had been the untiring drudge for
days and nights before. Well,
perhaps she picked up something
in that way, and perhaps she did
not.
Too much attention is paid to
creature-comforts on these occa
sions. Too heavy demands are
made on pantry and poultry. Let
good sense, moderation, and Chris
tian self-denial, come in to check
this great evil.
You have kindly relieved a half
dozen famous, noble old men.
Here are hundreds, thousands of
harder-worked, unknown, suffering
women. Oh, preachers, delegates,
and guests,
“ It isn’t chickens you arc eating up,
It’s human creatures lives !”
Martha A. Cook.
Wesleyan Christian Advocate.
...A subscriber wrote to a jour
nal to make some inquiries about
the next world’s fair, whereupon
the wicked editor replied that he
was under the impression that the
next world wouldn’t have any fair.
.. At one of the schools in Corn
well, England, the inspector asked
the children if they could quote

in reply, the text, “No man can

CORINNES MISTAKE.
Three merry girls entered the
cars at the terminus of a city road.
They were bright-eyed, intelligent,
and full of fun.
“ Oh, I do hope,” said Aune
Welsh, arranging her skirts and
her hooks comfortably, “ we shant
have a single passenger from here
to Haight street. I just want to
talk and laugh, and act exactly as
I please, without the presence of a
critical fourth.”
“ Unless it should happen to he
a very nice young gentleman,”
laughingly supplemented Corinne
Baker.
“ Anything but that,” said the
first speaker, with a grimace, adjust
ing veil and curls, however. “ I
am brimful of mischief, and in such
case I know I should do something
detestable.”
“I do hope we shall he alone,
though,” said little Lottie Deal ing,
the youngest of the three, as she
placed her hooks on the cushion at
her side, “ It’s such fun to have
the car all to one’s self, or selves.”
“ I’m afraid the fun must go by
the hoard, then,” exclaimed Anne,
“fori see the funniest, plainest,
homeliest old woman coming right
straight this way. O, misery ! she
will spoil every thing.”
“And, look at that antiquated
hand-bag—a century old, at the
very least,” Corinne cried. “Did
you ever see such a relic of Noah’s
ark! And how ridiculously she is
dressed! I’m not sure but we can
have our fun after all.”
Meantime, bowed down by some
infirmity, dusty with a day’s ride,
and really antiquated in garb and
manner, the old lady drew nearer,
nearer to the car. When she had
gained it, her face brightened visi
bly at the sight of the fresh young
girls, and in the kindness of her
heart she nodded, as much as to
say, “My dears, you are all stran
gers to me, but I am very glad to
see you.”
They did not, however, return
the nod; but one by one they
smiled, looked in each other’s
faces, and at last tittered audibly.
The poor old woman seemed shock
ed at this incivility, and drew her
self as far from their vicinity as
possible, while the turned her keen
eyes, that almost disproved her
years, so large and black they were,
from their faces to other objects
outside. Suddenly Corinne, pos
sessed, as she had said before, with
the spirit of mischief, took up one
of her school-books, and with a
wink aside at Anno, began to read
in a low tone —
“ She was the scrawniest, weird
cst-looking object, with a wart on
the bridge of her nore, and a crinkle
crankle bonnet of ah uncertain age,
like' iis owner. AlLjshc needed
was a broomstick and a mack cat
to make a veritable witch.”
Here the mirth of the thought
less girls became so audible that
the reader was forced to put some
restraint upon her fun-loving pro
clivities, and lay the book aside.
“Here’s Haight street,” said
Anne. “ Corinne, I never thought
to tell you, Uncle Hal brought us
two Spitz dogs yesterday, white as
wool, and as cunning as they can
be. Come home with me and see
them. It won’t take five minutes
more, and, perhaps, I will give you
one of them.”
“But mamma expects company,
and—”
“O, bother! I tell you it won’t
take five minutes longer. Come,
there’s a darling?” and the old lady
sat looking after them, as the girls
tripped away in high spirits, a sad
expression on her care-worn face.
“ Corinne!” she murmured. “ 1
thought 1 knew the face. I hope
it was only thoughtlessness,” she
added, and her lips trembled.
“ But, perhaps, I looked for too
much from Corry’s child. And
young folks cannot be expected to
enter into the feelings of the aged.
But it is hard to be so disappointed”
—and she shook her head dejected
ly-
Meantime Corinne had seen and
admired the dogs, and the girls
were about parting.
“Come over to the house, soon.”
said Corinne to Anne, as they stood
upon the steps. “ I want to intro
duce you to one of the grandest old
ladies—my mother’s aunt. I have
never seen her myself, but I know
I shall love her, for she saved
mamma’s life, at the risk of her
own. Mamma has often told me
about it—how that she was in the
third story of a burning house, and
when the strongest men drew back,
this aunt, then an invalid, ran
through the flames with wet blank
ets, and dragged her out of a hor
rible doom. She was fearfully
burned, and sick for years after
ward from the effect of her exer
tions: and mamma thinks all the
world of Aunt Eunice. So do I.
By the way, it was mean of us to
make fun of that old lady. What
possessed us?”
“I couldn’t help it,” said Anne,
laughing, “ though 1 knew it was
wrong.”
And the friends made their adieus,
and parted.
“ Has she come, mamma?” cried
Corinne, flushed and breathless
from rapid walking.
“Yes, dear,” said her mother,
smiling, “ but she was so tired T
persuaded her to lie down, so you
won't sec her tilj dinner time.”
1) in n c < 1
lady a with a wart
on the nose. No
wonder Corinne turned pale and
sick at heart, as her mother intro
duced her, with a loving smile.
Not but that she understood that
low and gentle, ‘Kever mind, my
dear,’ which reached her ears alone,
ns the old lady' kissed her and
pressed her hand.-
Never before had she felt so hu
miliated; and now that Aunt Eu
nice had cleared away all traces of
the dust and fatigue of the journey,
she saw how noble and sweet was
the face, spite of the disfiguring
wart, and how really grand was
the spirit that illumined it, and
that led her to say, in manner at
least, that all was forgiven and
would be forgotten.
Corinue has never failed, from
that day to this, to treat old age
with respect, no matter whether
she meets it clad in purple and fine
linen, or in the garb of poverty
and misery. Onelesson was enough
for a lifetime; one recognition of
the beauty of Christian forbearance
under great provocation sufficed.—

and Roman Empires , (he growth
of the nations of Modern Europe ,
the Middle Ages, the Crusades, the
feudal System, the Reformation,
the discovery and settlement of the
New World, etc., etc., by James D.

The National Publishing Cos , of Philadelphia,
pa., Chicago, 111., St. Louis, Mo., and Dayton,
Ohio, who have issued a handsome volume,
entitled “ The Pictorial History of the World,”
by James O. McCade. a well-known historical
writer. This work will, undoubtedly, take
rank as a Standard History. It is the most
valuable book that has been published in the
country for many .years, it contains a sepa
rate and admirably written history of every na
tion of ancient and modern times, and is full
of valuable information concerning them, pre
sented in popular style, and in a manner that
will enable the reader to refer instantly to any
subject upon which information is desired
The book is a complete treasury of history,
and there is not a question that can be asked
concerning any historical subject, but an an
swer to it can be found in this work. The
author does not contert himself with a mere
dry statement of facts, but sketches the life
and manner of the various nations of which he
treats, in life-like colors, and presents to the
reader the causes which led to the prespeiily
and decay of the great powers of the world.
He shows us the various great men—the war
riors, statesmen, poets, sages, and orators—of
ancient and modern time, and makes them fa
miliar to the reader; he explains the secret
motives of their actions, and points out the
lessons which their lives teach. A valuable
feature of the book is a full Uixtory of the late
War between Ituxxia and Turkey.
This is the only complete History of the
World in print, and it should be read by every
intelligent person. We are constantly caked
upon to discuss the great questions of history,
and the wars and quarrels of the nations of the
old world require us to be continually refresh
ing our historical knowledge. This work
odors the best means of obtaiuing the informa
tion the people need. It Is compact, easy of
reference, and str clly accurate, and presents
to the reader a mass of information respecting
ancient, mediieval and modern history not to
be found in any o'her book.
The mechanical execution of the book de
serves ttic highest praise. It conta’ns 1300
large double-columa pages, printed in the
clearest and most beautiful style on paper of
the very best quality. The book is embellish
ed with over 050 engravings, illustrating the
even's recorded in the narrative embracing
battles and other historical scenes; portraits
of the great men of ancient and modern times ;
and views of ihc principal cities of the woild.
These engravings are genuine works ot ait,
and were made at a co-t of over $25,000. The
great number and high character of these en
gravings make this the most valuable a-t pub
lication of the century. Wo cannot too highly
praise the numerous and beautiful portraits of
historical pcrsoi ages with which it abounds.
The price is so low that every one can afford
to purchase a copy. It is sold bv subscription
only, and Mr. ti. W. O’KEI.LY, who is the
