THE ONE FAMILY.
" There is a wondrous family
That’s scutlcrcdfar and near, _
All travelling to eternity,
But never gathered here:-
Thcrc’s many a loving brother, ,
And sister dear we know,
Who shall never see each other,
Nor ever meet below.
" They all have one mighty Father
Who is forever near; ‘
But they only feel His presence, .
And never see Him here:
- They all have one Elder Brother
, Who saved them every one;
But they civil not see His beauty
Until their journcy’s done.
“ They all have one home, for distant, ,
.On which their hopes are set;
But filey do not know the glories,
Nor ever dream them yet.
When within its blessed portals
This scattered household meet,
How great will be the jubilee
The fellowship how sweet."

Mussns. EDITons :—Onc of the mosfwon-
derful’fcats of modern times, viz.. the trans-
mission of passengers from San FrancisCo
via. the Great Pacific Railvvay.—Chicago§&
Great Western,Ncw York Ccntral,and Hud-
Sol'l River Railroad’s to New York, a dis-
tance of 3,137 miles, was successfully ac-
complished on Saturday last. And, what is
more monderfulslillfihc trip was made in
less than, seven days, Without change of
cars. Mr. A. S. Hurlbutt, a resident of Cal-
ifornia for the past nineteen years, but now
sojourning in Weslport, his native place,
was one Of the party and furnishes particu-
lars relative to the journey. . .
“ The party consisted of some forty per-
sons, including lndies and children, and
were put into one of Pullman’s magnificent
palace curs chartered for the occasion, and
attached to the regular Pacific express train
which left Sacramento City on Saturday,
July 17th, at 6:30 a. m. The passage through
the Sierra N cvadas presented many singular
things to the view, among which, were
the stupendous ascending and descending
grades—numerous interwindings among
lofty mountain peaks. and the immense
snow-sheds. which are very extensive, and
will soon reach an aggregate length of 25
miles. By means of these sheds, which are
open at intervals for the purpose of admit-
ting light aud the escape of smoke, trains
will be enabled in mid winter to make regu-
laririps, beneath snow drifts which some-
times reach a depth of 50 feet. 011 the
Great Plains stretching uninterruptedly a
distance of some 500 or 000 miles—perfccfly
level and nearly straight, the luxury of rail-
way iravcling was experienced. Here, from
the car windows on either side, the eye was
unable to measure the distance or beauty
presented to it. All along through this re-
gion, immense herds of deer were seen, and
as the iron-horse came dashing by, began
running and racing about, probably alarmed
at the grim monster so unceremoniously dis-
turbing. their tranquility. Prairie dogs were
seen by thousands, ‘but no buffaloes. The
Missouri river was reached on Wednesday,
and crossed by means of a ferry boat con-
structed for the purpose, the car being rolled
upon it, inplike manner as is seen every day
on the Shore Line Rail Road at Lyme, on
the Co'nnecticm river. A bridge of some
credit in point of architecture, spans the
Mississippi at a place called Chester. Over
this structure the entire train passed. At
Chicago Mr. Pullman himself joined the
party accompanying it to New York. Mr;
H speaks of the trip in the highest
terms of praise,——says it was notat all nio-
notonous. But the‘beautiful scenery, friend-
ly compenions', and excellent car arrange-
ments lent a charm to the journey which
W'ss relished by all.

OVCI‘ ; a pair of brown eyes wandered .up
and down the long column of “ Wants." un-
til thcy rested upon this.
“ The very place, lllamlna," said Viola
Burnett. Allcl forthwith the‘litilc hat and
neat little mantle were donned, and soon
she‘wus walking in the direction of Pearl
street. , '
“ I dare say that there have been many
before me,” she thought. “ But, surely
there is no harm in trying when mammu
andI need money so much, and its com-
ing all depends on me." .
It did not take long to bring her , to. NO.
121 Peal-l street, and she paused before the
glass-door to collect herself. There was but
one lady within, and she felt much relieved,
for she expected to see a crowd of eager ap-
plicants, among whom her chance would‘bc
but slight; and to find it all quiet,‘ and no
one to face save the aforesaid lady, engaged
in looking “over some boxes in the rear, was
a pleasure unexpected. V
--She entered and the lady came forward.
She was not very . young, perhaps thirty,
with a pretty, kindly face; and when Viola
made known her errand, she [gave a little
laugh and said, ‘7 Dear me! I am delighted!
Such a string of applicants as I have bad,
and all of them sour-lOOking Old maids.
We should not have five customers in a
week. What a sweet face you have! Are
you experienced?
“ Yes, I have worked fo‘r a year in the es-
tablishment of Mrs. Lalouch.”
“ All 1. her' name is well-known, and her
work much admired. I am sure you will
suit me. When will you begin?”
“ Now if you wish ; I am anxious to’ be-
gin as soon as’you 'can find work for me.”
“ Do begin at once; and, to give us speci-
men of your work, take this hat and trim it.
You must knowfj my dear Miss—”
“ Burnett.” - -
“ Ah, yes, Miss Burnett, that I have a
brother. who is, in foot, the owner of this '
establishment, and it is to him you must look
for directions, for,.to tell the truth, I am soon
to be married.” .
Viola nodded, and allowed the French
woman to go on.
“ I am a widow, and have lived two long
years in a state of single wretchedness, and
have resolved to marry again. This fact, .
you must understand, brings you directly
under the direction of M. Paul Lavalle,who,
by the Wily, I must inform you, is a thorough
woman hater.”
“Is be old ?” asked Viola.
“No; he is young; but he so utterly de-
spises women I believe he would discharge
you were you to ask‘a question bey'ond
business. He is polite for all that, and may
offer you the attention due to a lady; but I
beg you to decline 'every offer, for if you do
you 'will not long remain here.”
The request was a strange one, but never-
theless, easily granted, and she promised to
do all in her pow'ér to retain her situation.
It was late in the afternoon .before the
gentleman arrived, and Viola only caught a
An advertisement appeared in a daily pal--
per for a milliner and shop-girl, at‘ Madame'
cease to do so when I tell you that I cannot
marry until he is settled in life. Bless your
heart, Ihm delighted. -
Paul came in less than hour and told her
the some story;_and together they walked
to Viola’s motller,;and she joined in their
happiness. If he ever was a woman hater,
hc laid it aside when he married, and became
a model husband. ' ' ,
Bad Condlton of Canada.
“ Carleton” writes from ”Montreal to the
Boston Journal: , ' _
Canadian papers are discussing the ques-
tion of emigration, and are trying to account
for it. The question has been brought up
in Parliament. Mr. Brydgcs, manager of
the Grand Trunk road, has come out
with a card, saying that, after all, the emi-
gration does not amount to much; is not
much larger than in former years, as he has
ascertained by inquiring of his agents along
the line of the Grand Trunk Railroad, The
remedy proposed is to bring in emigrants
from England and Scotland to take the place
of those who have left for the States. Agents
are now traveling in England, government
has on emigration bureau to spread informa-
tion throughout the populous parts of Eng-
land in regard to Canada, setting forth its
attractions and advantages, but a large per-
centage of the emigrants arriving pass
throughthe Dominion to the' land of free-
dom and. plenty, where there is “ bread and
work for all.” Lady Dufl'erin expressed a '
sentiment knivcrsal to the Irish heart when ‘
she put those words into the “ Emigrant’s
Lament.” , In Ireland, ll‘om the Giant’s
CauseWay to Cape Clear, the United States
is looked upon as the only land on'the face
of the earth where there is plenty of work
and good pay and broad enough to eat.
Riding in an Omnibus, we entered into
communication with the conductor, a young
Englishman, with the bright blood of Old
England giving a ruddy glow to his manly
cheek. A. -
“ You are from Old England ?” we said.
“ Yes, from London.”
“ How long since you came ‘2"
" Seven months.” -
"‘ Do you like it here ‘2” _
“ N o, I am only stopping here to earn a
little money to take me to the States.”
Canadian statesmen may keep their agents
in the field; London. may send over ship
load after ship load of her surplus popula-
tion, but they will’not choose Canada for a'
stoppingplace; The Dominion will only
be a sieve through which the Canadian tide
of emigration‘will be poured. _
Here 'and‘ there .‘We find men who laugh at
the course pursued by the government in
trying to fill up tthOminion With- people
from the old country, while they are losing
the cream of the present community.
' It was expected that confederation would
bring better days to Canada, :but it seems
rather to have aggravated the evils and in-
creased the burden of the people. Taxation,
instead of being less, is. greater than ever
before. The people sustain not only their
own Provincial Governments, but the Gen-
eral Government. The'Dominion Govern-
ment thus for, has not met the expectations
of those who advocated confederation, ex-

A GOOD WORD non THE' CAT-BmD.—One
rainy day, the past summer, as we sat by a
'Window lobking out upon the flower-bed» '
our attention was attracted to a Cat-bird ap-
parently buried head and shoulders in the
soil and trying toextricate himself. Our
first impulse was to run to his rescue, sup-
posing him to be in danger from some hid-
den cnemy‘; but we soon-discovered our
mistake when we saw him gradually emerge
dragging out with him, not without some
difficulty, 0 very large grub of the May-
'beetle, which he had detected in the very
act of eating the roots of our favorite gera-
nium. The offender was forthwith pounded
to‘n jelly, and in this. condition .dornc off to
the bird’s nest hard by, Where it no doubt
gladdened the heart of one of his ncstlings.
Our good opinion of the Cut~bird is con-
firmed by the rebent experience 61" President _
Hill of Cambridge. A favorite clm,uear his
house, was attacked last summer by a large
swarm of the vauessa caterpillar. They
rapidly devoured its foliage, and threatened
soon‘to despoil the tree of its.beauty. One
day, When he was about to bring ladders
and attempt their removal, and was consid~
ering whether this was practicable, he ob-
served a Cat-bird fly to the tree and begin
to destroy‘ the caterpillars. Seeing this un-
expected relief, he defcrrcd any interference
and awaited the rcsult. Nor was he disap-
pointed. In a few days the Cat-bird entire-
ly cleared the tree. The writer Was an eye-
witness tO a similar result, but in this case
the tree attacked by the vanessa worm was
a poplar, and the birds which cleared them
out Were Baltimore Orioles.

re-opened at New Britain, on Wednesday,
Sept. 15th.
The examination for admission will take
place On Tuesday, Sept. 14th,, beginning at
10 o'clock, a. m'
Candidates must be at. least sixteen years
of. age, must declare their full intentién of
teaching in the public schools of Connecti-
cut, and must pass a satisfactory examina-
tion in reading, spelling, writing, arithmetic,
geography, English grammar, and the his-
tory of the United States. .
The design of the school is strictly pro-
fessional; that is, to prepareyt’hc pupils for
the work of organizing and instructing the
schools sf this slate.
It will be the aim of the Board to make
this, in every respect, a first-class Normal
School. The course of Siudy is limited to
Those who are prepared can
enter at an advanced standing.
For the benefit of those who are to teach
during the coming winter, a special class
will be formed at the same time, (Sept. 15.)
to continue eight weeks. The exercises of
this class will answer somewhat to those of
a protracted Tcacllers’ Institute, comprising
a rapid review of the common school studies
and drills, and lessons in the art of teaching
from some of the ablest instructors in. the
country.
The Normal lnsiitutc will be of great ser-
vice to teachers already engaged in. the
work. Young teachers especially are ii;-
vited to secure the advantages of this course
before entering upon the winter schools.
Full particulars as to instructors and oth-
er details will‘soon be announced.

may be made to the subscriber at New

-—so to speak—Rom the soles of her feet to
the roots of her hair with chemically pre-
pared cosmetics, 0ne day look a medical
bath, and on emering from it was horrified
at finding herself black as an Ethiopian.—
'lle transformation was complete. Not a
vestigelof the supreme Caucasian race was
left. Her physician was sent 'for in alarm
and haste. On his, arrival 'he laughed im-
moderaiely and said : “Madame, you are
no longer a woman, but a sulphur-ct. - It is
not a» question of medical treatment, but of
simple chemical action. I shall analyze you.
Come, I shall submit you to a bath of sul-
phuric acid diluted with water. The sold
will have the honor of combining with you :
it will take the sulphur, the metal will pro.
duce a sulphate, and we shall find as a pre-
cipitate, a pretty woman." The good na-
tured physician went through with his au-
alysis, and the belle was restored to her
membership with the white race. Young
ladies who are ambitions of having snowy
complexions should remember this and be
careful what powder and cosmetics they use
—if they use any at all.

he asked.
“ Yes, sir.” _ »
“ I am glad, for Adele is very hard: to
please. Do you think you will be content'
to remain?”
“ Yes, sir ?”
The gentleman turned away, evidently
thinking it useless to try to engage her, in
Troy conversation, and she went soberly Ion
with her work. 1
It rained when the hour came for Viola to
return home, and she stood a moment at the
door, looking out into the dark, wet streets,
“Miss Burnett,” said Mr. Lavalle, “ allow
me to see you home under nly umbrella.”
Viola was surprised. Not only-because
he was a rich man, and she a poor milliucr,
and she wondered at his offer. '
“ N o, thank'you,” she replied, “ I can go
alone.”
' He had not time to repeat his ofi‘er before
she was out and half way down the street-
It was darker than she had supposed, and
the rain fell in torrents; but she drew her _
mantle tightly around her, and with bowed
head walked swiftly along. Before she#
reached the end of the street there came a
Sound of sharp, quick steps .upon the pave-
ment, and Paul Lavalie came up beside her.
“ Of course you think me very bold, but
I prefer to run the risk of incurring your
displeasure rather than see you endanger
your health, by exposing yourself on- such
a night as this.” ‘1
He drew her hand within his arm, and to-
gether they went to Mrs. Burnett’s door.
Violaallowed him to carry on the conver—,
sation, answering only when directly ques-
tioned, and then only in monosyllables.’ She
could not help thinking however, what a
pleasant, agreeable gentleman he was, and
half repented her promise to Madame; but
she managed to keep it, and bade him a
formal good night with a cool little speech
of thanks for his kindness. - ,
She had no desire to lose her situation,
but she was almost inclined to disbelieve
madame’s story. ' Well, it might be true;
and if so, woman haters wérc certainly very
agreeable creatures. . '
The work became a pleasure since daily
the establishment was brightened by the
owner’s presence; but Viola never forgot
madame’s warnmcr. It was all in vein that
be brought fruit and flowers, and praised
her work. She never lifted her. eyes at his
pleasuntries; and once when he chanced to
clasp her white hand in the midst of 9. Con-
fused tangle of ribbons, she nev‘er spoke or
smiled, and he would not have known that
she observed the action. but for the dash of
blood whiCh swept across her cheeks. There
were many more rainy nights, and many
times the umbrella was brought forth; and
under its cover Viola trudged home beside
Lavalle. He seemed very unlike her notion
ofa woman hater. I V _
Onc'day he dropped a note into her lap, ~
saying: “Here is a letter for you, Miss Bur-
nett. You will send a reply before I come
again,” and went away leaving her to stare
wonderfully at the little note.
After awhile she opened it and read:
“VIOLA—You are a strange being, and I
cannot understand you ; but I understand
my own heart, and it bids me say Ilove you
my own, my wife ? I told you I must know
. your reply before I again come, and so it
must be. Viola, my darling, I await your
answer. '
PAUL LAVALLE."
A joyous light bl;okc over her face, and
with a timid of happy tears, she wrote be-
neath, “ I will be your wife.”
“ Why are you so bright:

be his wife." ‘
“And you told him—”
“ Yes.” .

that‘all women were husband-hunters, and

The Man of Lei-tare
' You’ll please not to forget to ask the
place for me, said a pale blue-eyed boy as
he brushed the cent of the Man of Leisure
at hislodgings. ‘
Certainly not, said Mr. Inklin. I shall be
going that way in the course of a day or
we. ‘ '
Did you ask for the place for me yesicrv
day ? said the pale boy, on the following
day, witha quivering lip, as he performed
the same office. . 1
No, was the answer, I was busy, but I
will to-day. , ,
Heaven help my poor mother, murmured
the boy, and gazed listesslyon the! cent Mr.
Inklin laid in his hand.
The boy went home. He ran to the hun-
gry children with the, loaf of bread he had
earned by brushing the gentlemen’s coat at
the hotel. They shouted for joy and his
mother held out her emaciated hand for a
portion, while a smile flitted across her
face. . .
Mother, dear, said the boy, Mr. Inklin
thinks he can get me the place, and I shall
have three meals a day—only think, mother
three meow—and it won’t take three min«
utes to run home and share it. with you.
.The morning came, ‘and the pale boy’s
voice trembled with eagerness as he asked
Mr. Inklin if he had. applied for the place.
. Not yet, said the Man ofLeisure, but there
is time enough. '
The cent that morning was wet with tears.
Another morning arrived. ' o
