That fill the measure of thy lot.

Yes these are but the wayside sheaves
We glean upon the field of years;
Oblivion, in its reaping, leaves
But here and there some scatter’d ears.

Perhaps ’tis well we can but glean ;
For could we harvest all the pest,
Joys too intense and grit-1's too keen
Were o'er our present being cast.

Life’s current duties must be met;
And ’tis but glances we can give

The darkening past; the game is set,
And we must for the in tstery strive.

Cird up thyself. my spirit, then,
In Him who gives all necdl‘ul grace;
Thou most not now afford to spend
Thy closing years in idleness.

The past thou cansl not now regain—
The shortening future is thine own;
To Faith and Hope and Love attntn—
’l‘hese spoils from Time may still be won.
An Abolitionfsl’s Story.~

 

Having completed my labors at Selma, I, ‘

selected Columbus, Miss, for my next field
of labor. I had been at work in Columbus
about two weeks when a difficulty occurred
which,but for the faithfulness of a negro,
would have ended in my death at the bands
of an infuriated mob. During one of my
visits to a plantation near Columbus I met
with a. negro slave of tnorc than ordinary
intelligence. His master was a man of
coarse and brutal instincts, who had burned
the initials of his name into the flesh of
:several of his slaves, to render their capture
more certain in case they attempted to es-
cape .from this merciless wretch. I saw
severalvictims of his cruelly whose backs
would forever bear the marks ofhis brand-
ing iron and lash. He was a Iverilahle
“Legree.” On one of toy excu-rsrons over
his plantation I was accompanied by the
slave mentioned. -
During our rambles he gave me a history‘
of.his life and sufferings, and expressed an
earnest desire to gain his freedom. I felt
that he could be relied upon and imparted
to him the secret objectiof my visit to the
south. He listened with absorbing earnest-
nesswhilc I explained to him the dangers
and difficulties he would have to encounter-
on so long and. perilous a journey. He,
however, declared his . determination to
make the attempt, saying that death itself
was preferable to his present existence. 0n _
the following day (Saturday) I again visited
the plantation, and selected this slave for
my companion. He informed me that he
had decided to start for Canada as soon as
he could communicate with a brother who
was on a plantation a few miles distant.
He wished to take this brother with him, if
possible. I gavelhim instructions for his
guidance after he should cross the Ohio
river; the names of friends at Evansville,

Ind.,and Cleveland, Ohio, to. whom he '

could apply for assistance. I also furnished
him with a pistol, knife and pocket compass,
and directed him to travel by night only
until he reached friends north of the Ohio
river.

On the following ilonday evening. while
seated at the supper table at the hotel at
which I was stopping, I heard loud and ex-
cited talking in the adjoining room. In a
few minutes the landlord came up to me
with ,an excited look, and exclaimed,
“Colonel wishes to speak to you.
You had better go out and meet him." I
immediately rose, and went into the room
from which loud talking emanated. As I
entered, the colonel, in a loud and brutal
tone, said: “That’s him; arrest himl’f
Upon which a man stepped up and said,

 

“You are my prisoner.” I demanded the .

reason why I was arrested. Whereupon
the doughty colonel strode toward me with
his fists clenched,- nnd charged me with
being an abolitionist, and said he would
have my heart’s blood; that I had enticed
away his nigger “Joe"; that the nigger had
not been seen since he went out with me on
the previous Saturday.

‘ The room was filled with an excited
crowd of men, who glared upon me with
fierce and fiendish looks. I tried to keep
ccol,bnt I confess that I felt that my work
was done. I knew the character of the
colonel,and also that he possessed much
influence with the worst class of Southerners
in that sectiOn. '

In the meantime the constable had pro-
duced a pair ot‘iron handcuffs and fastened
them around my wrists. After the colonel
had exhausted his. supply of curses and _
coarsenbuseupon me—for the purpose of
exciting the crowd to hang- me—I quietly .
nskediflwouldbeallowed to say a few
words, at the same time making a masonic
sign of distress, in hopes that there might
be}; mason in that crowd who would have
courage sufficient to sustain my request. ,I
had no sooner made “the sign of distress,”
than‘n voice‘near me said, “He ought to be
allowed to speak." I was encouraged, and
[ery'quietly said, “Gentlemen, Lam a. total
stranger here, without friends;'I am your

risoncrin irons. You have charged me
with violating your'law's ; will yOu not the
partgof cowards by allowing this ma ‘
(Colbtiel -——) to incite you to commits.
murder, or will you, like brave men, grant
the only request I have to make. that is, a
fair trial before your magistrate?" ’ Several
persons at once spoke up in my favor,
among whom was the landlord and his
brave little wife. , .

I was then, much to the chagrin of the
colonel, led up to the lock-up and consigned
to a filthy pen. ’There I’ remained all
through that dreary night, fearing to lie
down on the straw in the corner on account
of the number of vermin that infested it.
In fact,Idare not stand still through fear
ofbeing bitten by the rats that kept run-_
ning‘about the floor all night. At length
the morning came, and I. was, taken, hand-
cuflcd, weary, hungry, and filled with a
dread (of what appeared my impending
fzite),b‘efore ajustice.‘ ‘ . -

A crowd of people had gathered to see an

' nt‘léngtn the'colonel finished an state?

that I had calledvat his residence on ‘Satur- 5

that he was sure I had aided him to escape. ,

and demanded‘of the justice that I should

His remarks were loudly applauded by the
slave-hounds that surrounded him.
Thejustice turned to me, and in a stern

Spend Your Money at Home.

There are ten reasons why people should,
Spend their money at I'ho'me. They are so
forcible and well put that we cannot refrain
from presenting them to our readers, hoping
that they will give them the consideration
which they deserve: ‘

13L. It is your home; you cannot im-
prove it much by taking money away to
spend or invest.

2d. There is no way of improving a place
so much as by encouraging good merchants,
good schools, and good people to settle
among you and this cannot be done unless
you spend your money at home.

3d. Spend your money at home, because
there is where you generally get it. It is
your duty. .

4th. Spend your money at home, because

when his necessary for you to get credit,
it is-ofyour town merchants you have gen-
erally to get it, and they must wait for the
money. Therctbre, when you have the
cash‘in hand spend it at home.
. 5th. Spend your money at home. It will
make better merchants of your - merchants ;
they can and will keep better nssortments
and sell at lower rates than it' the only _busi-
ness they can do is what is credited . out,
while the money goes to other places.

61h. Spend your money at home. You
may have sons growing up who will some
:day be the best merchants in town. Help
lay the foundations for them now, It is a
duty. 'It may be your pride in after ears
to say: “By my trading at the store got
my son a-position as clerk, and now he is a
proprietor.” Then you will think it hard
if your neighbors spend their money out of
town. Set the example now.

, 7th. Spend your money at home. Set
your example now. Buy your dry goods,
groceries, meats and everything at home,
and you will see a wonderful change in a'
short time in the business outlook of the
place; therefore, deal with your home mcr.
chants. ,

81h. Spend your money at home. What
do you gain by going off? Count the cost;
sec what you could have done at home by
letting your merchant have the cash.
Strike a balance and see if you would not
have beenjust as well off, besides helping
your merchant. -
9th. Spend your money at home. Your
merchants are your neighbors, your friends;
they stand by you in sickness—are your
associates; without. your trade they cannot
keep your business. No stores, then no
banks, no one wanting to buy property to
settle on and build up your place.
10th. Merchants should do their adver-
tising at home. They should get, their bill
heads, circulars,cards, letter heads, envel-
opes, 'andnll their printing at home, in their
.own newspaper, who aid them in many
ways, and advertise them hundreds of times
without any pay whatever. Merchants
'should setan example to their customers by
patronizing liberally their home nestpapers.
Men and ‘women are imitative animals and
are prone to follow examples set them.
‘How can merchants expect their neighbors
.to trade with them if they set the example
of going away from home for their printing
and advertising? Let merchants and peo-
ple all patronize home enterprise, and home
industry and home trade. So shall they all

be prosperous and happy. .

The demand made by the Pope upon the
Spanish government is too strong for the‘
digestion of the Hartford Times, which is
generally there than obscquious in its com-
ments upon ultramontane proceedings, and
has even been at the pains to justify the re-
fusal of the right of burial to Joseph Gui-
bord’s remains. “It is getting," remarks the
Times, “to be rather late in the day for the
subcess of any such scheme of religious
.despotism, even in Spain. It answered

most upon Spain—when the infamous ap-
fpliances of the rack and the fagot were

The, Oyster. War. ..
A few days. ago. mention was madeof the
capture in Connecticut waters of several
boats owned in New York and engaged in
fishing for oysters. Mr. Bullock, of Bridge:
port, counsel for the seisors, received a let-
ter from Mr. Scudder, of New York, request-
ing that no further proceedings be taken to-
ward a condemnation of the boatsvseized,
épending a decision in the courts of “Scott vs
:Ketchum," the main caseto determine the
iconstitutional and jurisdictional rights of

 

[L Connecticut over the oyster interest} A

consultation was held in New York, Wed-

gnesday between Judge'Shipman, Hon. H. J.'
:Scuddcr, counsel for New York, and Mr.

:Bullock, of Bridgeport, in which it was de-

3termined to release the seized boats upon

j pledges from the New York interest as rep-
resented by Mr. Scudder, that pending a. fi-
”nal adjucation of “Scott vs. Ketcham," no

Eencroachments upon the oyster beds of our
'Icoast byNew York parties shall again oc-
cur, and upon‘further pledges by the own-
Eers .of the boats seized that their boats
;should not be permitted to return. It is
therefore well understood that Connecticut .
ioystermen shall be no further annoyed by

non-residents or oyster boats owned outslde
of the State. The‘first hearing—“Scott vs.
Ketchamfi’ will probably be had during the
Autumn. The schooner Undine was the
that 'to be released yesterday morning, and
the other boats now held will soon also be
released—N. H. Courier. .

 

If it was such a crime for General Sheri-.
vdan to term the scoundrels who in Louis-

iinna murder negroes “banditti,” what are-
xewe to think of Attorney-General Pierrepont

who appeals to the decent citizens of Mis-
sissippi tohuve the courage and manhood

éto destroy “the bloody ruflians” who mur-

der the innocent and uncfendiug freedmen ?»
:It is suggested that Mr. Everts and the other
' entlemen who were so offended by Phil
Sherman’s banditti dispatch should, in order
'to’be'consistent,hold an indignation meet-,
in g and denounce the Attorney General.

s‘ of a

a large farm in the neighborhood of. a large
market town in one of the Western States.

eel He was soon surrounded by a curious group

of the farmer’s family and laborers, all ask-
ing eager questions about the voyage and
the management of the balloon. That, se-
cured by an anchor and'a rope in the hands

above the ground. was swaying lazilbeack-
ward and forward in the evening air. It
was a good deal out of wind, and was a
sleepy and innocent monster in the eyes of
the farmer, who, with the‘ owner’s permis-
sion, led it up to his house, where, as be said
he could “hitch it” to the fence. But before
he thus secured it, his three children aged
respectively ten, eight ‘and three. begged
him to fill them into that big basket, that
they might sit on those pretty red cushions.
While the attention of the aeronaut was
diverted by more curious questioners from
a nighboring farm, this rash father lifted
the darlings one by one into the car. Chub-
by little Johnny‘ploved the ounce tooImuch
for the aerial camel,_and brought him to the
ground; and then, unluckily, not. the b_nby,_
but the eldest hope of the family, was lifted
out. The relief was too great for the mon-
ster‘. The volatile creature’s spirits rose at
once, he jerked the halter out of the farmer’s
hand, and with a bound mounted into the
air. Vain was the aeronaut’s anchor. It
caught for a tnotnent in the fence, but it tore
nway,nnd was off dangling 'uselessly after
the runaway balloon, which so swiftly and
steadily rose that in a few moments those
two little faces ,peering’over the edge of the
car grew indisti’nct, and those iiteous cries
of “Papa!" “.anmmn!" grew aintcr up in
the air. , . ,
When-distance and twilight Innsts had
swallowed up voices and faces, and nothing.
could be seen but that dark, cruel shape,
sailing triumphantly awaywith its precrous
booty, like an aerial rivateer, the poor fa-
ther sank down helpless and speechless,
but ' the mother, frantic with grief, still
Stretched her yearnin arms towards; the
heavens, andcalled wi (lly upiinto the un-
answering void. .
The aeronaut strove to console the wretch-
cd parents with assurances that the balloon
would descend within thirty miles of the
town,and that all 'might be well with.th‘e
children, provided it did not come down in”

of its descending in a favorable spot, there“
was but one danger to be apprehended, he

thought that the elder child might step out,

leaving the younger in theballoon. Then

it might rise and continue its voyage,

“Ah, no,” replied the mother; “Je'tlnie

would never stir from the car without J o‘nn-

ny in her arms." - ' »
The balloon passed directly over the mar-t
ket town, and the children seeing many peo.

ple in the streets, stretched out their hands

and called loudly for help But the villa-*
gers, though they saw the brightlittle heads,

heard no call. ' ,.

When the sunlight all went awayamd the .
great comet came blazing out, little Johnny
was apprehensive that the comet might come
too near the airyfc'ratt,and set it on firewith
a whisk of its dreadful tail. But when the
sister assured him that the fiery dragon was
as much as twenty miles away,and-that God
wouldn’t let him 'hurt them, he was tran-
quilized, but he soon after said, “I wish he
would come a little nearer so I could warm
myself—I am so cold, , , .
Then Jennie took off. her apron and
wrapped it about the child, as lngtenderlv:
“This is all sister has to ma c you warm.
darling,but she’ll bug you close in her arms,
and we will say our prayers, and you shall
go to sleep."
“Why, how can I say my prayers before I
have my supper ‘2” asked little Johnny.
"Sister hasn’t any supperfor you or her-
self, but we must pray all the harder,” sol-
emnly responded Jennie. .
So the two baby wanderers, alone in the
wide heavens, unawed by darkness, immen-
sity and silence, by the presence of the great
comet and the millions of unpitying stars,
lifted their little clasped hands and sobbcd
out their sorrow fnl “Our Father,” and then
that quaint little supplementary prayer :-

“Now 1 in me down to sleep,

I pray the 0rd my soul to keep ;
If I should die before I wake,
Ipray the Lord my soul to take? . ..
“There ! God heard that easy; for we are
close to him up here,” said innocent little
Johnny. ‘ ' ' . ' .-'
Doubtlcss Divine Love stooped to the lit-
tle ones, and folded them in perfect peace,
for soon the younger, sitting on the bottom
of the car, with his-head leaning against his
sister’s knee, slept as soundly as though he
were lying in his little, bed at- home, while,
the elder watched quietly through the leng,
longr hours, and the car floated gently on
the ,still night _air, tillit began to sway and
rock on the fresh morning wind. '
At length a. happy providence guided the
little girl’s wandering‘hand to n. curd con-
necting the valve; something told her to.
pull it. At. once the balloon began to sink,
slowly and'gently, as though let down by
gentle hands, ‘or,as though some celestial

air, not letting it drop into lskesor rivers,
leafy wood' or impenetrable swamp, Where
this strange, unchildlike eprrience might
have been closed by a death of unspeakable
horror; causing it to descend as softly as a
bird alights, on a spot where care and hu-
man pity awaited it.
The sun had not yet risen, but the morn-
ing twilight had come, when. the little girl,
looking over the edge-of the car, saw the
dear old . earth coming nearer—“rising to-
ward them,” she said. But when the. car
stopped, to her great disappointmen, it was
not on the ground, but caught fast. in the
topmost branch. of a tree. Yet .‘she saw
they v‘vere near a‘. housewheuce help might
soon‘come, so sire awakened her brother and
told him the good ' news, and together they
watched and waited ‘ for deliverancc,.hug-
gingeach other for Joy and warmth, forthey
were very cold. ' ' ‘
'Farmer _B’uxton, who lived 'in a . lonely
house on the'_edge’bf his, own private prai-
rie, was affamoussleeper in general, but on
this particular morning he awoke before
dawn, and though he turned and turned
again he could sleep‘no more. So’at last he
awoke his wife and said : “It’s no use; I’ll
just‘ get up and dress and have a look at the
comet. ‘ " '
- The next she heard'was a frightened sum-

How To MAKE RAG Cmrnrs.— If you
.want something for your kitchen floor, firm,
.warm and durable, from which spots can be
easily removed, which ’can be shaken, ,turny
ed and be as good as new again for several
years, use rag carpets. They can generally
be obtained of carpet dealers at from sixty
cents to one dollar a yard; but often a smooth.- .
Eer' and handsomer article can be made at.
home, at least ready for‘the 1001:]. For this
purpose save the' old clothes+old flannel,-
sheets and under garments-,old' dresses—in
fact, everything which will make long strips.
iOld clothes ‘of good colors are: doubly valu-‘
jable. Calicoes-not too much worn are ex-
,cellent material. Cut into strlps about an
inch wide, sew end to and; and; wind smooth-
5 into balls of about oneponnd in weight.
llow from one and tine-fourth "to one and
:one-helf pounds of urge to the square yard
of carpeting. Collect all add pieces of any
color for the mosaic or hit and miss stripe.
,Cut and mix these thoroughly. before sew-
ing, so as to make this stripe as uniform as
possible. A few pounds of remnants from

ors. A stripe of several shades of red bright-

TEE Peon CARDmm.—Thomas' Adol-
phus Trollope 'w'rites from Rome 9. letter in
,which the destitution of the cardinalsiunder
the iniquitous rule of the “Robber King" is
painfully set‘f‘orth: 7 . j ;' -- .
A recentI circumstance has caused a some
what curious computation ,andtrev’elation to
be made of the incomes enjbyed' by: several
of the members of the sacred- College. 'And
I think that 0‘ er all the shrinks of despair
and wrath wh ob have for so many months
astiflllcd the ears ofall mankind with the
_amentations of those purple fathers of the
Church over the “spoliation” which has be-
fallen them, the particulars which I am
going to give the reader will occasion some
,ittle surprise. The incident in question
was the subscription by those cardinals
resident in the Vatican of the sum of 10,000
trance—about ,§2,000-.,-for the suffer-em by
the inundationa' in the south _of France.
The subsoriptionis a “handsome one, and
their eminences would havevhad to submit
to the consequences of letting their left.

tight hands were doing, cheered by the
consideration that. they were; letting: men
see their good works, that they might glori-
fy their Fatherwhich is in Heaven, were it
not that the clerical papers, null especially
the Vase delta, lTerim,'ra‘ised'a song of 'glorle;
ficatlon‘over this act of charityperformedi
hymen “who bore their share in the _vglorp.
ions poverty" which has overwhelmed the
Church. This somewhatjnopportune vein
of,laudation set some of the protaner of- the
i‘chiefs, among us,”:who a-e “takin’ notes"
with a view of printing them, on the engr-
prise of inquiringa litfle into the particu rs
of the “glorious'poverlyl’ endured by their
eminences ofthc sacred college; and here
tI'ol owing you have sg‘n’ie of the‘ results - of,
the invesl‘ atiou.‘ Among the 24 cardinals
resident a the apostolic-court, four, or five
at the outside, suffer the bitterness of a.
poverty entailed by an income of only‘$6,-,

religious orders, whose notions of poverty.

of itmusthuve been'a somewhat different
