O'er sandy waste and rocky ledge— .
‘ Through narrow, mountain passes-r
I: may '- dizzy chasm edge—-
Through noisomo, black morasses—
' A. sloomr. fussed. devious way-
The homeward path through peril lay.

But bravely still the tired teet
Pressed on with eager yearning,
Until. where steep and river meet,
The path, with sudden turning,
Was lost to view, eats a dream,
Beneath the dark, imprisoned stream.

Perplexed, dismayed, the wanderer gazed
On crag and rushing river;
To one a wistful look upraiscd,
And then with frightened shiver,
He heard, above the torrent wild,
The well-known watchword, “Forward,
child 1"

A moment’s doubt—a elckcningfesr—
A terrible heart-striving— ,
Then, unseen hosts of angels near
His timid faith reviving;
With one long,lingering thought ofhome
lie leaped into the seething foam ! ’

Obi wondrous sight! With mighty arm
The rolling surge uplifted '
The trembling child—till, free from harm
Of wind or wave, he drifted -
0n sunlit shores beyond the tide,
Where love and rest'and- home abide!

And so, I think, the' promise reads
For all who follow duty;
Through fire or flood God's pathway leads
To plains of heavenly beauty. ' ».
Then faltering not, trust His sweet will
Who bids thy fe‘et press forward still,,

Ilnlster Jewell's Oplnloss of Russian
Soldiers. i

The following, from Minister Jewell, will
be interesting to military readers. It was
written to Secretary Fox, of the Hartford

City guard, accompanying ar acknowledgg

ment of the receipt 0“ a. vote of, thanks}.

passed by that company, for the git! of one
of his photographs. He speaks of Russian
soldiers as follows: ' _
You would be delighted to see the drill of ‘
these Russian soldiers. - This morning,
while I was reading your letter, there was

' parading in the boulevard directly in front
of this legation, a regiment of cavalry,
about 800 strong, every horse black, not a
white hair in all the number, of the same
height, size, and style, standing like statues;

. while the riders, all'large men and in equal
drill, helmets and breastplates of brass,
polished to the highest perfection, with
drawn sabres of brighter steel, long, crook:
ed and intended for business. 2

The exactitude of these regiments is;
wonderful. Most of the horses are black,
but there are regiments of greys and buys,-
but no mixtures. Each horse must have a:
fine flowing mane and tail. The infantry
and artillery are equally closely selected;~
diversity of height in a company, and they}

~ move like machinery. * 'i' * Great,
preparations are being made for the festivio.
ties of the coming nuptials of the Duke of-
Edinburgh with the Russian princess, and.
daily drills are taking place on the “Camp!
do Mars.” I should guess there were out:
today 4,000 or 6,000,0avalry, as many aro;
tillery, and 10,000 to 15,000 infantry. It’s a,
splendid sight; such as is seen nowhere;
else. Marching is very rapid, and mostly;
to trumpets, only sometimes accompanied:~
by kettle drums, and for show occasions,
fine big military bands. The emperor and,
all the imperial family are splendid soldiers,§
and always appear in the uniform of their;
respective regiments, which makes the mil-g

 

itary idea the prominent one of the empire. .

I want to see no such armyin our country;
-our citisen soldiers are sufficient ; but fork

an absolute monarchy like this, it appears:

to be indispensable.

=22:
Tun Mama’s SALARY.—We have had
_ some talk lately about discounts and dona-
tions to ministers, and there could not be a
better time to put in a few words about
their dues. The truth of the assertionibat
twice two is four is not plainer than the
statements made by our correspondent be-
. low, and yet how many churches dispute
them in their practice: -
The Scriptures. abound ii common sense
and have no false delicacy about urging the
claims of God upon men—or the claims of
his ministers. Hence they clearly teach
that the laborer is worthy of his hire, es-
pecially if he labors for the spiritual good
of others. -
Howeverimportant the Sunday services
may be to the parish, they constitute but a
small part of the minister's work. There
must be pastoral visits and visits to schools.
There are funerals and weddings, calls to be
made upon the sick and the a ‘ .l, so-

are sung“ 5° meetings. There are col-

commencements, meetings of associa-
tion, and councils, anniversaries of Bible
and temperance societies, and calls from
parishioners-lull theseecome in for a share
of attention, in addition to the hard labor
spent in reading and study,'and the prepar-
ation of sermons. So that, altogether,'ther
minister is one of the busiest men in the
parish, often at work while his neighbors
are asleep. .The man thus employed, has
no time to tilt the soil, teach school, prac-
tice medicine or. work at a trade. If his is-
bor iii-spiritual things does not-yield him a

. support, of course he must starve-

He ought to have a salary large enough,
with ordinary prudence and economy, to
enable him to provide comfortably for his
household ; to make some. additions to his
library; to educate children that they can
provide for themselves; and -to lay up a lit-
tle property for a time of sickness or old
age. No prudent man in any other calling
thinks of doing less than this, and God’s
promises to provide for his children are just
as available for the' lay members of the
church as for the ministers.

Whatever salary a minister has, ought to
be paid promptly, and quarterly in advance.
his a familiar adage often quoted on this
point, “ It is a good paymaster that pays
when his work is done." And we should
have no objection if the payment was made
at the end of every week. But when no
such payment is made until the close of the
quarter, and 'then only a partial one, and
much of the salary is not paid until 'after
the close of the year, it is extremely op-
pressive. Few ministers have anything
ahead when they‘commence work, and they
must have credit for all the current house
hold expenses of the quarter, or else they
must hirc money to meet all these expenses,
and this they cannot afford to do. The re-
sult is that a man finds himself in a few
weeks owing small’sums to a large number
of his parishioners. All that he receives at
the end of the quarter is used up in paying

these debts, and againhe is obliged to allow
small bills to accumulate. So that he is all
the while in debt and cannot feel the inde-

- pcndence and manhood that is so essential
to his highest usefulness.

If a minister does not pay his debts
promptly people sneeringly remark, “There
is your minister preaching to us, and urging
us to be honest, and he does not pay his own

_ debts when they are due." And on the oth-
er hand, if a minister realizes how much

- his own trenches for good depends upon
his W.,all.his obligations promptly,
uud,w-ith' this in his mind, he urges his
claim upon the Misty; then it is cheering-
ssid, “ The minister keeps a sharp look-out
for his pay; he cares more for the fleece
than for the flock.” Thus he is proficient.

' ’l'armers derive a largcfpart of their liv-
ing directly from the farm, and keep no ac-
colmtof it. There is not probably one in a
thousand of them who is in comfortable
circumstances that can tell, within several
hundred dollars a year,how much it costs
him to support his family. Sometimes a
man responds promptly to a remark of this
kind by saying, "I know just what it cost
me to live last year, for I kept an account
of everything I sold; and all I received for
everything was $500, and that was all we
had to spend, and we have as large a house-
hold as the minister." Well, how much
did you pay for house rent? “ Oh, I live in
my own house, and pay no rent." What
did your fire-wood cost? “ I made no ac-
count of that.” Well, how about your ap-
ples, corn, wheat, buckwheat, hay, oats, po-
tatoes, peaches, pears, currants, grapes, on-
ions, tomatoes, bects, carrots, squasbes,
beans, peas, cucumbers, {milk, eggs, butter,
chickens, beef, pork, mutton and veal?
“ Oh, I did not keep an account of anything
that I raised on my farm and used it my
family.” Very well; but until men do keep
an account of all these things, which not
one man in a thousand will do, 1'hey can
neve.‘ know ”thin hundreds of dollars
yearly what it 004531119111 to live. All these
articles must 1,, sought by the man who de-
pends unnn his entry for supoort. And
now, because two the nature of the case
farmers do not know what it costs them to
live, they are poor judges of what consti-
tutes a fair salary. It a minister has a gar-
den and raises a part of his living from it,
just so far he is a farmer, and all the time
that he spends in his garden more than he
actually needs'for exercise, is sojmuch time
diverted from his legitimate work. If he is
compelled to till a small farm or a large

garden for support in part, the farmers of
the parish usually find the Sabbath a‘_dull

day for them.

There are many parishes in which there
is no village—or if there is a small one, it is
stationary, and there is no prospect of fu.
ture growth. The schools are very poor,
and are in session but a small part of the
year. A minister is invitedfito such a field.
The salary is small, and paymentsgire not
prompt It is only by the most rigid econ-
omy that he can hope to save anything, and
if he does do so a few weeks’ illness, or a

sweep it all away. What is to, become of
the family if the father dies? If there were
a thriving village with {good schools, and
the minister knew he {would he wanted
many years in the parish, he might at least
educate his children, and by securing a
home he might be compensated in part by
the increase in the value of his property.
But none of these things are true, and there
'is no possible way in which he can improve
his condition save by a degree of toil and'
economy that is absolutely'painful- and de-
grading, and perhaps sends his wife to a
premature grave. It is not strange that
churches so situated find it dimcult lose-
curc or retain a good minister. Nor does it.
imply a great amount of depravity in a min-
ister to be unwilling to take such a field.
No such church ought to think of securing
a minister for less than athousand dollars a
year, paid promptly every quarter in advance.
Or if, as they make no account of what
they raise on their farms and consume in
their own families, they will furnish a min-
istera parsonage without charge, and all
the farm produce and fuel he needs for con-
sumption in his own family, and then give
him five or six hundred dollars in money he
will have a support about equal to the aver-
age living of his parishioners, and no parish
has a right to expect or demand of a minis-
ter any greater self-denial than they them-
selves are willing to practice—Advance.

From the St. Louis Democrat.

A Weddlnrr Tour shot Is Worth While.

 

 

Mr. Newbury of Davenport, Iowa, like
Burns of Gettysburg, is a practical man un-
der which game he won the heart of Miss
Zamie Severance, a. brilliant lady and de-
servedly popular school teacher, and about

wife.

It had been the custom of Mr. Newbury to
take an annual barge trip to New Orleans,
and he conceived the novel and romantic
idea of making a wedding tour in the same
way. The subject was broached to his
friends, and also to the friends of the bride,
and as it met with much favor on all sides
he decided to carry the plan out. A bar e
was accordingly fitted up in sumptuous sty e,
and everything made in shipshapc order for
the reception of the newly married couple.
In addition to the luxuries of life a cargo of
onions and potatoes were stowed away in
the hold, to be disposed of on arrival at.
New Orleans. In this manner was profit
combined with pleasure and common sense
with romance.

In addition to'Mr. and Mrs. Newbury, the
erafl carried fourteen passengers, three of
whom were ladies. Mr. Hall, an experienced
Mississippi navigator, piloted the bar e, and
commanded a crew of four men, al told
The ballance of the part was composed'of

bla‘rnell'nnd IIli ”Wilts. ‘
If anybo.‘ y desires to know what a wife
may be to ter husband, with who! pure un-
selfishness and-devotion she she can giVe
up everything that she has to his service,
and find a noble happiness in doing it;
what a support and comfort she can be to

him ruder the inevitable sor: )Ws and mis-
fortunes of life; how magnificeihly she can '
inspire him to fresh exertions, and stand as
a bulwark between the adverse world and
himself,—-'any one who wishes to compre-

hend allithis need only read the story of

Mr. Disraeli’s married life. It will be found

that in such 'a case the-devotion is not all
on one side. The affection of a 'good we‘-
man kindles the nobler‘ qualities of a man,
and he will repay her devotion with lofty
fidelity. Mr. Disraeli had, as he once said,
the “best of wives," he, on his part, proved
the best of husbands. Till the last, day of

the romance of youthful rn'ercoursc than
with the routine of married life. When he
rose to the highest point of ambition, the

only favor he would accept from the queen

was a coronei. for his wife. He was scarcely
ever absent from her side until the dark
day when the fast friends were to be par ted.
She knew that she was dying, but refrained
from telling him so, in order that he might
be spared the pain of bidding her farewell.
He also knew that her last hour was at
hand, but kept silence lest he should die-
tress her. Thus they parted, each anxious
to avoid striking a blow at the other’s heart.
The domestic lives of public men are prop-
erly held to be beyond the range of public
comment; but in an age when marriage is
the theme of ridicule from “leaders of
progress” it may be this passage in Mr. Dis-
rael's career may be pondered over with

some profitby the young.

Fran rx run (tomorrow-spin noticing
the opening of the newfisbwsy at Holyoke,
Fbmt and Stream says: We, hope for
great results from the construction of this
fisheway to manifest themselves at an early
day. The Connecticut is the best adapted
river on the Atlsntic coast for the propaga:
tion and preservation of salmon and shad;
it is the longest, the most broken by rapids,
the coldest at its source, and contains the
clearest and purest water. It was long ago
the natural spawning ground and birthplace
of salmon, and only became depicted by
those causes inseparable from increasing
population, and ignorant and insufficient
legislation._ Now for five years past the
fishery officers have been assiduously em-
ployed in restocking its waters, and the re-
sults so far as investigated, have proved
eminently satisfactory and encouraging.
Hereafter, with an unobstructed passage.
from the ocean to its mountain sources, the.
salmon and shed will have full range.
They , can plant- their soul alibs'tum on
chosen spots, returning periodically to their
native spawning grounds—and with both.
fish and ova protected by judicious laws.
and watchml'wardcns, they must continue
to increase and'multiply until the heart of

leap for joy at the abundance.

The question 'of_ permitting-public oflcers
to accept railroad passes is attracting con-
siderable attention in the West. The grunge
organizations have almost unanimously de-
clared against it as pernicious in its efi‘ects,
and a proposition is now pending’before the
Ohio Constitutional Convention, sitting in
Cincinnati, making it a penal ofi'ense for any
member of the Legislature, judge, or other
elected or appointed officer, to receive while
in office, any emolument, free pass, gift, or
other benefit, from any railroad or 'otiicer
thereof.

 

ars ago, a fat fellow asked Sir.

disappointed and unhappy man. When he
was a boy he came to this country, at the
instance of an American lady, and got a
first rate education, graduating at a Pennsyl-
vania college. Then he went back to China
animated by the high and holy resolve to
elevate and improve his countrymen. So he
organized a secret political society and com-
menced the dissemination of his ideas. Pret-
ty soon the government found. it out, sup-
pressed hia societ by beheading its mem.
bers, and would ave tortured Mr. Foo to
death had he not got himself under the pro;
tection of foreign consuls. Disgusted with
the ingratitude of his own country, he came
to San Francisco, resolved still to devote
himself to 1:15 countr men, though in a
smaller way. Last wee , he was cut, stamp-
ed on, thrown down stairs and stoned by a
party of Chinese shocmakers, who‘se condi~
tion he was trying to ameliorate. He is'
now convinced that his race don’t appre-
ciate him, and would be glad to take a po-
sition as servant in some gentleman’s family.

Ills-soun- n Benson's Ill].

About three months ago, Jacob Milchmsn's
wife, in Detroit, was somewhat ill, and
thought a doctor ought to be sent tohsr: so
he called at a Detroit street encased re-
quested the physician to go to his house.
The call was made, a perscription left with
Airs, and either the medicine was very effect-
ual or Mrs. M. was not very sick, for when
he called next time, she informed him that
she was all cured, and he need not come any
more. Last Monday Jacob received by

- mail chill from Dr. 2., “Due for medical

services, 810 75.”

Jacob studied a long time over that bill
and showed it to his wife, and studied it over
with her; but the more he looked at it, the
more it seemed to him that there must be
some mistake. The next morning he called
at the doctor's ofilce, bill in hand, and mud
the proprietor sitting there, waiting to hear
of some one sufi'ering from green corn, or
one of the other prevalent diseases.

“Oh, my wife is all right. You doetored

“I gave her some medicine that seemed to

“Yes, soil:did, so it did. That was your

“Yes, but no hurry about it, Mr. Milch-
man; take a little time on it, if you want
to: no hurry.”

“That was right, was it- 813 701"

“Let me see; yes, that is the amount, llr.
Milchman; but no hurry about paying it
you know."

“Thirteen dollars and seventy-five cents
for one. visit! That was pretty tans dear,

don’t you think so 2”
Here the doctor smiled all over in the

moot forgivin'way, saying: My dear Mr.
Mitchman, you are far out of the way. For
one visit 1 My dear sir, that is the way with
the unprofessional mind. I assure‘you when
vou see the items you will agree with me
that the amonntjs low, sir, very low.”

"Oh i” said new, “there was items, was
there ? Well where are those items!"

“In my memorandum book, sir. You

shall have them, certainly, if you wish.
You want the items, do you i"
. “That was just what I want,” said Jacob,
and apparently much to the doctor’s annoy-
-:nce. He hesitated a moment and then
drew a small memorandum book from his
breast pocket, opened it, looked at Jacob,
and began: , 4 T

"May—Use of horse and buggy to call on

. “Stop a little,” said Jacob, “till I write
hiin down," and he proceeded to write the
item down. “Don't you got no horse 1" he
mumps had finish-smiths.

of course I have to charge for hie, the same
as if he was a hired horse; don’t you see 1'

“Oh, yes, he was your horse, but you
charge yourself for him 1"

“Yes, that’s it! Now item No. 2. To

“Certainly; I had to you know. Item

“Dat was cheap enough i”

“I knew you would think so," exclarmed‘ _
the doctor, now satisfied that he was all
right. Item No. 4., To hearing Mrs. MRI

“Mine Gout You charge me for my wife’s

“Only what she said in a professional
way, I assure you. That item you will find
