Fresh Fieldl for the Heroic.
BY REV. JOHN IIALL, D. D.
Who has not, especially in the younger
years of life, wished for an opportunity- to
do something heroic? But the world, either
from getting better or worse, refuses to give
many of the chances it once afi‘ordcd.
To be anothcr Grace Darlmg would be
very nice—after the heroic dccd had been
done. The lonely lighthouse, the storm-boat-
cn, iron rocks, the frail boat, the lithe fe-
male form in it, the big billows laughing at
it, the rescue of the wreck, the return, and
the lovoly name of the woman, as lovely
and noble in nature as she was beautiful in
name—allmake a. picture on which no
young aspirant can look unmoved. But
then how low persons, comparatively, live
in Iight-houses—-—and how few opportunities
are there to save the sufi‘crcrs from abrokcn-
backed steameri Such events can only oc-
cur oncc in a generation.
To plunge into the treacherous surf and
save a fellow-creature from death or seize the
maddencd horse when the lovely equestrian
is just beginning to despair, and with a nerve
of steel to rein him up; to force one’s way
up a burning stair-way, and bring down
the scorched mother and her child—these
are splendid deeds, very heroic, and more
pleasant to contemplate than the royal Alex-
ander whimpering for some other worlds to
conquer—if he ever did anything so absurd
when he ‘was sober. But many persons live
and die without an opening once presenting
itself for such displays of the chivalrous
spirit.
It is painful to think of. Must the ma-
jority of men go undistinguished? Is the
“noble rage” to be all unsatiated forever?
Must youths and maidens aspire, and cher-
ish indescribable soarings” to no result ?_
Is it at all necessary. Heroism consists
essentially in having the coolness, courage
and unsclfishn‘css to attempt and do what
very few would venture. The object. would
better, moreover, be laudible. A burglar
runs great risks but we do not dub him a
hero. Now we venture to suggest a few
‘quite accessible situations in which, as the
notices say, “ enterprising perSons of both
sexes" can distinguish themselves and bone
fit the community in a greater or less de~
gree, according to circumstances. The list
to openings can be extended indefinatcly.
1. Let the youthful smoker conquer the
growing habit; all snullers reserve their
noses for the original uses ; and all mastica-
tors of the weed spare their mouths and the
public highways. It is unnecessary to dis-
cuss here the propriety or otherwise of these
indulgénces. It is enough that the victory
over them demands coolness and courage,
to which many are not equal.
2. Let all young men who have begun to
enjoya“friendly glass," forch it at once,
even though it be presented by the fairest
hands, on the gayest holiday, or urged with
varied bantering and entreaty at the most
brilliant table. '
8. Let all ladies whose taste and judgment
revolt against absurd fashions, ignore them.
Why should free Americans be ruled by the
caprices of a few modistes, or ordered how
to dress by a magazine writer whom they
would not invite to' lunch, if known? Spar-
tan sumuptuary laws were in favor of econ-
omy;but society would not now endure
them. Yet it submits in grumbling discon-
tent to irresponsible tyranny, obedience to
which is ruiniously costly. Why should
Mrs. Smith be required by fashion to drug
silk at five dollars a yard through the mud,
while poor Mr. Smith is at his wits’ end
about the grocer’s bills ?
4. Let the young ladies dare to gp home
at rational evening hours. Their color,
health, spirits and lives, in some instances,
will be saved by such courage. We do not
sympathize with the cynic who approves of
this absurd inversion of highland day, on
the ground that the silly women who prac-
tice it are thus killed off to the gain of so-
ciety. Many who are'capable 0f good things,
suffer in the multitde. Here is a fine occa-
sion for feminine courage to rescue endang-
ered lives. Where are the darlings who
will display it? "
5. Let the young Incn wear the old gloves,
hat and coat, till they can honestly all'ord
the new.
but it will have good results. Men school-
ed to such deeds of heroism will refuse to
endorse bad bills, will not vote for scamps,
nor kneel in the mud to scoundrcls who
give lavishly what they have gained law-
Icssly, nor take with pride the hand of a
villain, however exalted.
6., Let men refuse their names to all pa-
pers the contents of which they cannot per-
sonally vouch for, including testimonials.
Any man actually out of Sing Sing can get
a testimonial, and you may see a dozen
names to the testifying‘ excellence of one
whom each of the dozen signers will own
to be worthless. How are they caught?
By being taken in detail, and eachhold
what all the rest are going to do. NO one
likes to be the one to refuse. Here is a.
splendid field for heroic deeds. Bic the one I'

HAernnrin AND-Tm SCARLET Lunar-n.-
During the whole winter,whcn the Scarlet
Letter was. being written, he seemed tlcv
pressed and anxious. “ There was a. knot in
his forehead all the time," Mrs. Hawthorne
said. but she thought: itwasfrum some pe~
cuniary anxiety such as. sometimes aficctcd
that little household. One evening he came
to her and said that he had written some.
thing which he wished to read aloud; it was
worth but very little, but as it was finished
he might as well read it. He read aloud all
that evening; but as the romance was left
unfinished when they went to bed, not a
word was said on either side. He always
disliked, she said, to have anything criticised
until the whole had been read. He read a
ground evening, and the concentrated ex-
citement had grown so great that she could
scarcely bear it. At last it grew unendur-
able; and in the midst of the scene, near
the end of the book, where Arthur Dimmes-
dale meets Hester and her child in the for-
est, Mrs. Hawthorne fell from her low stool
upon the floor, pressed her hands upon her
ears, and said she could hear no more.
Hawthorne put down the manuscript and
looked down in perfect amazement. Do
you really feel it so much ? he' said; then
there must be something in it. He prevail-
ed on her to rise-and hear the few remaining-
chapters of the romance. To those who
knew Mrs. Hawthornc's impressible nature,
this reminiscence of hers will have no tinge
of exaggeration, but will appear very char-
acteristic; she had home to the, utmost the
strain upon her emotions before yielding.~
The next day, she said, the manuscript was
delivered to Mr. Field, and the next morn-
ing he appeared earlyat the door, and on
being admitted, caught up her boy in his
arms, saying,“ You splendid little fellow,
do you know, whats father you-have ‘1’"
Then he ran up stairs to Hawthorne’s study,
telling her as he went, that he (and I think,
Mr. Whipple) had set up all night to read it,
and had come‘to Salem as early as possible
in the morning. She did not go up stairs,
but soon her husband came down with firein
his eyes, and walked about the room a. differ-
ent man. I have hesitated to print this
brief narrative. Yet everything which
illustrates the creation of a grea't literary
work belongs to the world. How it would
delight us all if the Shakespeare societies
were to bring to light a description like this
Of the very first reading of Macbeth or of
Hamlet ! To me it is somewhat the same
thing to have got so near to the birth-hour
of the Scarlet Lettcr.—-T. W. Hz'ggz'nson.

Improvements at Hull Gite.
Passengers on the steamboats to and from
New York are attracted by the work at Hell
Gate and many inquiries arc-made as to the
extent of the werk. It appears that there
are ten main tunnels, running in a semi-cir-
“cular form from the point just above the.
landing at Astoria. The longest of these
tunnels is now 230_fcet. There are other in-
tersecting tunnels connecting the whole.
They are thirty-four feet deep, and there is
about ten feet of reek between the tunnels
and the water.
The rock above is supported by solid
stone pillars, which have been left between
the tunnels. The excavations are made by
drilling into the rock, and then blasting with
nitro-glyccriné, the broken rock being rc~
movcdlto the outside and the blasting rc-
pcatcd.‘ Thus the work goes on, and ‘it is
proposed to continue it until all the danger-
ous rocks on the eastern side of the Gate
shall have been removed, and the channel
made wide and deep enough for the largest
ocean steamer to pass through. It is thought
that it will require a year anda half more
to complete the work, and a timber appro-
priation will have'to be made by Congrcss.
When all the necessary excavations shall
have been made, and thc'pillars supporting
the rock above and the rock itself will be
bored and charged with nitro-glyccrine, and
the same tunnels. The colfer dam which
now keeps back the water will next be cut
and the water let into the tunnels. The
charges of nitro-glycerine. will then be ex-
plodcd, and the result will be that Hell
Gate will go up in a cloud of water, and the
rocks can afterward be grappled and remov‘.
ed. The engineer in charge of the work is
confident of a successful result, and proposes
to remain within thtee hundred feet of the
entrance to the tunnels when the' final blast
is touched 011‘ by electricity. Some of the

posed that they should go 'to the “Maison

“Three.” “Eight francs will never do for

abandon the idea.”' “thrc is your father?"
asked the friend. “Trent! I forgot, he will

The first and only Button-Hole and Sewing Ma-
chine combined that has made Its advent In this or
any other country. The following reasons are given
why this Is the '
BEST FAMILY MACHINE TO PURCHASE:
1. Becau'se it will do everything that any machine
can do, sewing from the finest to the coarsest. mate-
rial, hemmin . felling, cording, braiding, binding.
gathering an sewing on, at the same tune, ruining,
spinning betterthan any other machine. 2. Because
t e tens one are more easily] adjusted than an other
machine. 8. Becausethes time is entire! :1 kereut
from any other and ver little trouble to t read. 4.
Because It. can work a antiful button-hoIe-makin
as line a pearl as by the hand. 5. Because it wil
embroider overthe edge, making a neat and beautiful
border on an armeut.‘ 0. Because it will work a
beautiful eye et ole. 7. Because It can do overhead
seaming; by which sheets,'ptllow cases, and the like
are sewedover and over. 8. Because you can quickly
raise or lower the feed to ads t it to thick 0". thin
cloth. "9. Because you have a s ort, deep bobbin by
which thredd is cousta 1y drawn from‘ the center;
the tension is eonseque Iyeveu, and does not break
the thread. 10. Becase the presser-foot turns back;
that the cloth can be easily removed afterbeiug sew-
ed. 11. Because the best mechanics pronounce It
the hesrfiuished and made on the best principle of
any machine manufactured, ,It has no springs to
