I stand upon the Mount ofGod
With sunlight. in my soul;
I hear the storms in vales beneath,
I hear the thunders roll.
But I am calm with thee, my God.
Beneath these glorious skies ;
And-t0 the height on which I stand, ‘
No storms, nor clouds, can rise. -
O, This is life! 0, this tsj sy!
My G id, to find thee so;
Thy face to See, thy voice to hear,
And all thy love to know.

What a. Five-Dollar Note Dld.

The following amusing scene, which oc‘
curred recently in an American family,
.' will be fou_nd not uninteresting to our read-
ers. The chief role is played by money,
the prime mover in such affairs. An eye

Witnesa related to us the occurrence in the
following words:

One evening that-I took tea with an inti-
mate friend of mine. while we were heated
at the table, Mr. Baker, my friend‘s husband.
while absenlly fevlitlg in his vest pocket,
found a five-dollar note which he had no
rectillection of putting there.

' “Halloa l" he exclaimed ; “that is no place
for you. I should have put you in my
pocket-book. Here, wife, don't you - want
some ready money i" and he threw the note
across the table to her. .

"Many thanks.” she replied; “money’ is
always acceptable, although i have no pres-
ent need ofit." ‘he folded the note and
put it under the dgc of the tea tray. and
then proceeded to pour out the tea and at-
tend to her guests.

At her right sat Mrs. Easton or Aunt
Susan, whom We all knew as an old acquain
tance who. from lime to time, spent a whole.
Week with Mrs, Baker. Her visit was just
at an end,- and she Was about to'relurn
home that evening. As Mrs. Baker was
pouring out her tea it occurred to her that
she was somewhat in her aunt’s debt. for
certain small matters, and she pushed the
note under her plate, saying:

“Here auuty, take this five dollars in part
payment of my debt.”

"Very well." she replied, “but the money
does not belong to me. I owe you fifteen
dollars, my dear Grace, which yoti lent me
last Siturdlv. I had to pay the taxes on
my .itile house and had not the ready mon-
ey at hand, and Grace lent it to me," ex-
claimed Aunt Susan.

Grace, an orphan. was a cousin to Mrs.
Biker. She atld her brother Frank boarded
with her, and made a very pleasant addi-
tion to the family circle. She was studying
music and her brother was a clerk in a mer-
cantile establishment.

As soon as Aunt Susan received the note,
she handed it to Grace, saying “I will give
this to you on account, and the rest as soon
as I get it." _

“All right," answered Grace, laughing,
"and since we all seem to be in the humor to
pay our debts. I will follow suit. Frank, I
owe you something for music you have
bought me; here is a part of it. ;" and site
threw the bank note'across the table to her
brother who sat opposite. _

We were all highly amused to ,see how
the note wandered around the table.

“That is a wonderful note," said Mr.
Baker. “I only wish somebody outed me
something, so that I could come into the
ring."

“You can,” said i-‘rank. “I owe Mrs.
Baker, or you, i"~ all the saute, for my
board; I herewith l' : ‘ you part of it.”

Amid general ltlllril‘er Mr. Baker took
the note and playfully again threw it to his
wife, saying “It‘s yours ag-iin Lucy,bccause
what belongs to me belongs to you. It has
completed the round, and we have all had
the benefit of it.”

“And now it must go around again," re-
lied she gayly ; “I like to see money circu-
ate; it sli'ould never be idle. Aunt Susan,
on ’t’ake it. Now I have paid you ten dol-
ars.

“Dear Grace, here is another five dollars
an rpv account,” said Aunt Susan, handing
it to Grace.

“And you, Frank, have received ten dol-
lsrs for the music you brought me,” said
Grace, handing it to her brother.

“And I pay you ten dollars for my board."

The Crack tn‘tnc Door.
aThe prettiest house, the prettiest garden,
the best servants. and the largest'bank as-
count in X, belonged to Mrs. Mehitable
Armstrong, widow. Some people also de-
clared that she was the prettiest woman
in P ,Yiut these were not the other women.
They said that she had red hair and was
too fat, and what the gentlemen saw to
admire in her they could not guess, etc.,
ctc.; but, say it as often as they might,
every man in the place was Hetty Arm-
strong’s devoted servant, friend, and, a
doZen of them, her lovers, also. A bright,
dashing, warm hearted woman she was, as
merry as‘though she had never known a
care. Not that she had forgotten the love
ot her youth—the gallant, black eyed cap-
lain, whose ship had gone down in mid-
ecean five years before, and whose piclur
ed face lay near her heart night and day,
sleeping and waking; but site was too full
of life and bone to live entirely in the past,
and loved neither hours of melancholy nor
what women call “ a good cry." 'I‘o forget
all sorrow if she could and be as happy as
site might, were the two grand rules of her
life, and tlieretore people who did not know
Hetty Armstrong thought her heartless, and
made a great mistake. '
They called her a flirt, and this was not '
true, ‘eilher. She only flirted with those
who began the game first, and that a wo-
man has a right to do. At X., if a gentle-
man CaIIed twice upon a lady, his attentions
were said to be “very particular ;” if he
" saw her home from meeting," rumor de-
clared that they were “ engaged.” and if he
spent an evening with her, they “were to be
tnarried next week," for certainly; but Het-
ty Armstrong was somehow not included in
the general rule. She had determined to do
as she chose. She went everywhere with
every unmarried gentleman of her set. She
was] friendly when she chose- to be, and
flirted when she liked. After :etting gossip
afloat a dozen times, she gained her point,
and people lef' her alone. It was Hetty
Armstrong’s Way, and no indication of mat-
rimonial intentions. For years gentlemen
haunted her parlors, escorted her hither and
thither. sung with her, danced with her.
confided in her, and adored her, and village.
gossip had not married her,nntll suddenly a
stranger made his debut at X. and set the
tongues a going beyond even Hctty Arm--
strong’s power of silencing.
‘ He was iall,he was bandsome,he was
comparatively young, He had just that
touch of the exquisite about him which is
so charming when ‘_‘ a man‘s a man for a’

at Hetty Armstrong's feet and declared him-
self her admirer. Of course we do upt
mean to say that be ruined the knees of his
faultless habiliments by going down upon
h ' , or in any other way conducting him-
sel as did the knights of old when heart-
smitten, but, after the manner of the nine-
teenth centurv, he declared his intentions
quite as openly. . ’

He sang to and at the lady. He haunted
her parlors like a well-dressed ghost. He
wrote poetry for the “Luminary,” addressed
to H. A., and signed 0. R. He breathed deep
sighs and gave soft glances, and said things
that might have double meanings. And this

gan to understand that she was expected by
everybodyto accept Charles Rokewood when
he offered her his heart and band. Mean
while the soft eyes and sweet voice, the dc!

icatc attentions and the winning songs of

pon Hetty Armstrong's heart. It began to'
e conscious of certain tremors and flutter-
age in his presence. Her cheeks flushed as
hey hid in girlnood. Her dreams were not
he sober, practical dreams which nature at

ve-and-tweaty should _alone indulge in;
ad as the diys rolled on she felt more con

cious that the “ Yes" which was expected

f her would be easily uttered.

She tried to be prudent and judge the man

carefully. The result was she declared him
to be an“ angel." At last Hetty Armstrong
fairly let go the rudder of self-will, to which

“but you can’t think how hard you’d find i';
and ifyou stay out late they make such a
row—sit up for you in a nightcap, and cry
when you come in."

“I’d manage that,” said Rokewood, "by
staying out every night till daylight. The
one rule I should put in practice would he—
never let a woman have her own way.”
The spoons tickled a little more, and Mrs.
Armstrong’s face was terribly flushed, but
she listened still.

‘ “Of course you yield a great deal to the
woman you are in love with,” said Mr.
Rokewood, evidently brushing the ashes
from his cigar;“but tlt'at's because of the
romance and all that sort of nonsense,
which dies out with the honeymoon. You

“Not in the least," answered his wife,“it’s

said “more quons were needed for the

“Of course there must he," said Mrs
Armstrong. " Where was my poor head to

And away ran Mrs. Armstrong to tht
around-floor, where she plunged into a long,
old-fitshioned cl. set, and brought forth a
legacy of silverum’e left ltci' by a maiden
aunt. Counting the spoons over, a murmur
ot‘voices from tilenext room fell upon her
ear.. At the same time she caught the per-
fume of a cigar. She knew that Charles
Rokewood had the richest voice and smoked
the best Cigars ofauy man in his set.

Onn Nuwsurnns.-The cordial , praise
and the gentle criticisms which we receive
from mouth to month from the nervspaper
press, have placed as under many obliga-
tions, which. we are bound in honor to con-
fess, have received but little practical ac-
knowledgement. We have endeavored, it
is true, to profit by all wise suggestions,and
tried to show our gralilttde by making our
monthly offering more and more valuable
to its great host of readers ; but we have too
mucll the feeling of a junior, or a protege,to
presume to make any return in kind. Shall
We be pardoned if, for once, we break out of

and try to realize to ourselves how much
more blessed it is to give than to receive?

As newspapers, simply, those of America
are the best in the world. The entire globe
is raked, and naked clean, every day, of in-
cident, movement, and event. to be'blazoned
upon their teeming pages Science, religion,
politics, society, commerce, agriculture, me-
chanics, all things of human concern find
place for every fact and phase in their col-
umns. 'l‘he lightnings are their messengers.

their wings. and bearing in their beaks from
the harvest fields of thought and action

every battle field, in the mid: of every mob,
in the forests and the deserts, on the moun-
tains and on the seas. watching kings, watch.
ing paliaments, sitting by the side of the as-
tronomer in his vigils, recording the mes-
sage of the preacher, counting the steps of

all'this enormous enterprise and industry,
morning by morning, to thchomcs of the
nation. The outcome of this world-wide
inquisilion and exposition rises almost into
the realm of a miracle. We have'no words
,to express our admiration of it, no phrases
by which we can measure the‘ height and
depth and length and breadth of the largest
it contains and the influence it exerts.
Thus much we can say with entire truth-
fulness; Thus much we do say with thor-
ough heartinels. To preside over a great
American newspaper is to hold and exercise
ore of the most dignified ofilces .of the
world. _ Now. let us open the newspaper
and see how it looks. Freighted with the
world’s great affairs, loaded down with the
hopes, struggles, misfortunes, crimes, tri-
umphs and achievments of humanity, we
expect. to find it earnest, dignified and cath-
olic. The first thing we see is halfa column
of sensational heading, addressed, perhaps,
to tbe purient curiosity of the basest men.
We open a western paper, and find over
an item of intelligence, or of falsehood, con-
cerning a grievous scandal the word
“HELL!” in as large letters as can be
squeezed into a column. This is followed
by minor heads,-eVery one of which is in-
tended to produce a sensation. We go
on through the paper, and it is allsensation.
Ottentimes the headings'mislead as to the
real character of the intelligence to which
they are the preface. All the news chronic-
led is wrought up into its most startling
forms. To pique curiosity, to raise teeling,
to attract attention, to appeal to the sense
or the marvelous, to be stunning rather than
simple and true, are the apparent motives of
the conductor.

Is this an extreme case? We can furnish-
papers by the hundred that steadil pursue
this course as a matter of policy. t is not
enough that we have party presses in reli-
gion and politics that give a party shape to
verytliing that comes to them. It is not
enough that we have presses that rejoice in

than are excited by those affairs which mark
the advance of the world in goodness and
wisdom. It is not enough that there are pa-
pers which mold all things that thev touch
to the personal purposes andprejudices of
their conductors. Ir' a thing is tame it must

it is sad—inexpressibly sad from its badness
-liS badness must yield the requisite sensa-
tion. Great and good names arejested with

terests of the human race are tossed flip
autly about, like the balls of ajuggler, to
ttract the eyes of the gaping multitude.
objects of which children can never know
too little, are laid. before the family eye as
familiarly as it they were not steeped in
shame. To receive the world's news, in the
pirit and shape in which it is presented to
millions of readers every day, is to suppose
that all the world‘s momentous events are
onceived in fever and brought forth in bys-
terics. '

ers which indulge in -it most are least trust-

Times are changiiig wh n we hear a Uni.
ted States Senator tom ew England de-
fending the doctrine of secession. Mr.
Eaton, of Connecticut, on the night of
March 20, made a speech upon the Louisia-
na question, and in the course of his argu-
ment its said that the General Government.
is not an atiou--it isa confederacy ofnationa
—-it is' composed of 'sovereignities. He
spoke of Rnode Island, which did not adopt
the Constitution of the United Slalcs until
eighteen months after its adoption by the
other original States, and inquired what her
status was. He said until she did adopt
this instrument or compact she was not a
State, but one of the sovereign powers 0!
the earth. He declared that evory State in
this Union was independent-gas sovereign
“dill independent as Rhode Island was in
1,7

 

, except in the powers that it has dele-
gated by the Constitution, and defied any
Senator to successfully controvert it. Some
body ought to tell Mr. Eaton that we had
some diflicully down here over this very
question in 1861, which it took four years to
settle,buttliat we Were finally convinced
that the working of the theory was had.
We respectfully suggest to Mr. Eaton that
with the exception of a very few old irre-
concilahles, he will find no followers in this
section. If Connecticut meant to set upfor
herself, she should havebegun when the
thing was fashionable in a certain portion
of the couutr . Now she would have to go
it alone. 8 have had'all we wanidown
