WHOLE NUMBER
PEACE.
As flows the river
Calm and deep,
In silence toward the 808,
So floweth ever,
And ceaseth never,
The love of God to me.
He kindly keepeth
Those He loves
Secure from every fear. .
From the eye that weepeth
For one that sleepetb,
He gently dries the tear.
What peace He bringeth
To my heart,
Deep as the soundless sca.
How sweetly singeth
‘ The soul that clingeth,
My loving Lord, to Thee.
How calm at even
Sinks the sun
Beyond the clouded west.
So tempest driven
Into the haven,
I reach the longed-for rest.

QUERY.
AFTER TENNYSON.
If my Love is little, tell me,
Should not I, then, love her, long?
And, if she is short of statue,
Should not. then, her love be strong?
Trifles go to make perfection,
While nothing large can perfect grow
Thus when with her, I’m nearer perfect
Than when alone. Is not this so P
- —I. D. Crane.
In A Canoe.

Lovn ADVENTURE.
It wasfiwfully ,hard work. Our. two ca—
noes were as close as canoes could be; but
every time I tried to get in a position where
I could see her face, those abominable pad-
dles were sure to come into collision‘, and
you can’t say the right kind of a thing to a
girl when you are always hitting'her paddle.
Talk about love making 'on horseback being
difficult! Just try it' inva canoe.
The hanging woods of Cliveden were alive
with a large picnic party, as well as count~
less birds, and I hadn't noticed that a stout
old gentleman of the M. P. type was peering
at us from the banks; but when I next bat-
tered up against the light'bark of my adored
one a truly British voice shouted :
“Don’t be p fool, sirl Those things are
no better than walnut shells l” ,
Indignation at this interference made me
draw offhbristling all over.
“What has it to do with you, sir?”
Hot, but sarcastic, came the reply:
“Oh, upset yourself, by all means; but
have the kindness to excuse my saying I'd
rather you didn’t upset my niece.”
His niece! Could anything be more un—
fortunate ? 1
“I’m coming on shore now, uncle," cried
the fair Flora, brightly, casting but a single
look at me, as she sprang from her canoe
and slowly sauntered along the bank.
Must I make fast her canoe, or should I,
in revenge, let it drift hopelessly among
those lovely little islands of reeds and bul—
rushes which grow on purpose to shelter
swans and lovers? No, I would not be so
base.
This was how it was.' I was up from Ox-
ford, staying with a cousin of mine, who
was rather a swell, and who promised to do
a good deal for (me. This cousin had a lot
of people staying with him, and Flora and
her mother were among them, but her uncle
I had never seen before. Now for the last
week that sweet, pretty little face had cer—
tainly groWn brighter at my coming, and no
one had stopped us when we strolled about
in the moonlight; and this picnic she and I
had looked forward to tremendously; why
should that pufiing, consequential old uncle
turn up and spoil everything.
I made fast the two canoes and then, with
an air of firm determination (my cousin’s
wife has since told me I looked sulky,) I re-
joined the revelers. I deeided 'not to seek
Flora; on the contrary, I would show her
how well I could get on without her. There
was a very nice girl called Kale there. I
fetched lobster salad and pigeon pie for her,
and was as lively and entertaining as possi-
ble. , .
“Quite deserted poor little Flo ?” asked my
cousin’s wife, archly, as she passed me.
“Oh, no,” I replied in a pleasant off-hand
manner; “nothing of the sort.” ,
I glanced across at her; she was looking
7 sad. My heart smote me, but I felt I must
be firm. And just then a great tall fellow I
hadn’t observed before offered her his coat
to sit on. I redoubled my attentions to Kate.
She holds good appetite and I fed her,on the
fat of the land. _ 1
When it came to going—home time I be-
thoilght me'of how gradual and sweet would
be the reconciliation; but when I looked
about for Flora she had disappeared in a
large boatful of guests.and so Kate and I had
those two horrid canoes.
It was quite late and the bright moon was
shining over us before we neared Bolter’s
Lock, and when we were all inside the lock
one small boat belonging toour party was
missing, and just as we missed it the water-
,man called out that a gentleman in a small
boat had shot the weir.
A woman’s scream was heard and Flora
cried:
“He is drowned, then—he is drowned l”
“I pushed my canoe close up beside the
boat in which she was seated and murmured,
thrillingly : '
"Dearest, I am here 1”
“You! How .dare you suppose, sir, that
my daughter was thinking of you, when she
is about to be married to the Honorable
Captain Tolloby ?" .
That’s enough. The horrid man survived
and she married him
Dipsomania and Excise.
Three drunken mothers arraigned in one
day in the Police Courts of N. Y. city for
cruelty to or neglect of their children were
mentioned in the local columns of the news—
papers that night, and some of our contem-
poraries make the cases the text of lamenta—
tions over the spread of the vice of intem—
perance. The explanation is not difficult to
find. The sales of liquor—often of the most
poisonous kind—are virtually unrestricted,
not only in the saloons, but also in the drug-
shops. The Excise Law is so framed that,
like the proverbial Act of Parliament, a
coach and six can be driven through it; and
things will go frombad to worse till the
Legislature steps in to repeal or amend the
statute.
D. S. Terry, known as “Dave,” was at the
time he killed Senator Broderick, Chief Jug-
tice of California. Broderickoppnsed Bu—
chanan’s policy, was the friend of Douglas,
a Union man at all hazzards,and it was never
questioned at the time but that the duel was
forced on him in the interest of the secession
democracy. He Was not a duelist, not even
a good shot with a pistol. By a trick played
by the officers of the court. Terry escaped
even the formalities of a trial for murder.
Soon after, the rebellion having broken out,
he slipped off to Mississippi andheaded a
rebel brigade during the war. This over, he
returned to California, where 'he lived very
quietly until the Democrats thought of him
as a proper candidate for Attorney General
of the State. -

The Man from Deadwood.
A Brooklyn boy, who had spent some six
months in the Black Hills, struck home last
week and sauntered up Fulton street. He
was dressed in an antelope skin shirt, a pair
of black tail deer skin pantaloons, beaded-
mocassins and a white felt hat with a brim
like a wllgon wheel. He wandered into a
saloon, thumped his fist on the counter and
howled for tan juice with a glittering eye.’
“Will yer jine me, strangers?” he said to
three or four gentlemen sitting at a table, ad-
ding, as they hesitated, “I reckon ye‘d better.
With me a invite means liquor or blood. Ye’d
better come up;” _ .
They approached the bar,and all took beer,
except one, who took cider, explaining that
he had never touched spirits in his life.
“Wall, I’ll be dogged l” roared the skin
decked traveler. “El yer was with me whar
I hang out yc’d be into a hole. ‘Cause that’s

t Old Time Experiences ‘ ‘Crossing
_ the Line.”
A letter to the Chicago Tribune from an
old sailor says :—
When the vessel approached» the Equator,
preparations were made for a good time gen-
erally to all but the luckless novices ,who for
the first time were about to “cross the line.”
The exact time to the hour could be told by
solar observation; and just as the Equator
was being crossed, one of the most stalwart
of the crew, perfectly disguised with huge
whiskers and. flowing locks, composed of
roakum, and dripping with ocean-brine, came
over the bows, with trident on his sbgllder
and speaking trumpet in his hand,demanding '
with the voice of a stentor, “if any strangers
were entering his sacred domains.” The
new comers were forced to the front; and
Neptune, having addressed them in a long
rigmarole, received them into his family—if
young ladies, by kissing them, and milltcing
them in a bottle of brandy; or, if, of the
coarser sex,by turning them over to the three
rough subjects, who followed in his train.
One of these seized the novitiate holding him
tightly. One was armed with apot of tar,
slush, and sometimes more nauseous com—
pounds, and a rusty iron hoop; the other
with a huge paint brush. ' *
Neptune proceeded with the catechism.
The poor victim opened his mouth to reply,
Dab I went the brush of tar into his mouth
and over his cheeks; then the lather having
been applied, the razor (the rusty hoop) was
brought into requisition, and the novice hav-
ing been fully shaved, hewas thoroughly
drenched with salt water and then released,
if he promptly paid his fine of a bottle of
brandy to the crew. «6
These ceremonies were at one time most re
ligiously observed on nearly all the ships,and
on the British Indiamen they were ended by
keel-hauling the noviate,—a process I will
endeavor to describe.
A rope was rceved through blocks or pul-
leys on each fore- yard arm, under the ship’s
bottom, and passed around the victim, to
whose feet a weight was attached, to sink
him below the keel. He was then hoisted
up to the yard—arm, and, at a signal, let go
“by the run,” while the opposite gang
hauled him under the ship and swayed him
aloft to the other yard-arm; when after a
short breathing-spell he was doused again.
"This proceeding, as well may be imagined
was fraught with real dangers, and, in fact,
several victims perished during the ordeal,re-
ceiving heavy blows on the head against the
ship's keel ; while an instance is recorded
where a voracious shark mangled a body fa-
tally during its transit under the keel. These
accidents, were brought to the notice of the
government, and the practice was thereafter
abolished by legal'enactment.
An English professor and a young lady
from Baltimore, were recently wrecked in a
rocky cave near Mount Desert at nightfall.
They had gone into the cave in a small boat,
and were sitting on the rocks talking about
mineralogy. Suddenly a big wave broke in.
to the cavern and swamped the boat. The
Englishman plunged into the boiling surf,
ciuleavoriug with the frenzy of despair to
collect the remnants of the frail bark. Use.
less for the purpose of navigation, the shat—
tered craft might still serve as fuel, for the
cave was cool and damp. and'the shades or
night were coming on. The professor had
lucifer matches and he built a fire, and there
they remained until morning, when some
fishermen, amazed at the unwonted spectacle
of smoke emerging from a cleft in the rocks
of an uninhabited island,ventured in to the
rescue of the imprisoned couple, and with
the aid of ropes drew them from their peril—
ous position.

“He Gets Drunk.”
“He is the smartest young man in our
class.” .
“Yes, but he gets drunk.”
“Oh, but he’s so fine looking, so noble and
so talented withal ! His composition yester-
day was the very best in our division. .He

a magazine, and no older than he is, and not
out of school yet l—won’t he be a great man
though, some day ?”
“No. I don’t think he will."
“Why not ?”
“He gets drunk ”
i7‘0h, that’s nothing; a great many smart
men get drunk. Every-young man has his
wild oats to sow; and because a fellow gets
a little boozy once in a while, I wouldn’t
condemn him forever; quite likely he’ll out—
grow it when he gets older and sees the folly
of it.” '
“More likely that will outgrow him, and,
as to his getting a little boozy, I’m afraid he
Was a good deal so when the boys found him
beside the walk, the other night, and had to
carry him to his room, dodging around street
corners and skulking through by-ways so that
none of the professors would see him. I tell
you a person that drinks at all is not to be
depended on. The only young men that I
have any confidence in are those who let in—
toxicating liquor alone.”
“Well, I don’t care; he’s good and smart,
anyhow, and I like him.”
So the conversation went on between two
Ah,how those
wads, “He gets drunk,” kept running in my
ears! Possessed of a noble manhood and a
glorious intellect; blessed with the greatest
and best of God’s gifts; having the love and
approbation of his teachers; and looked up to
by his associates; the. pride and hope of a
fond father, interwined in the heart and life
of a doting mother, united in close and ten-
der bonds with brothers and sisters; holding
in his hand the honor and good name of the
institution with which he is connected, of the
society-in which he mingles and yet—“gets
drunk I"
"As a‘ natural consequence, that man who
drinks will generally blight the manh‘dod that
is within him, change to curses the blessings
that are upon him, bring to the dust what-
ever high born aspirations,whatever longings
for greatness, glory and immortality- may be
his ; blast the fondest hopes of parents, put
out the brightest of their future in the dark-
ness of disappointment, pain and_ sorrow-s.
Ilring shame and reproach upon brothers, and
sisters; trample upon the love and confidence
of his fellows; shut himself out from all
goodness, purity, usefulness and happiness;
blot out the image of God that is stamped
upon him, drag himself down lower than the
brutes. Aye, so surely does he shut himself
out from all Heaven, “as he gets drunk.”
Trunk Space and the Sexes.
Mr. Bowerman and wife left for the coun-
try, yesterday. One could tell that their
trunks were not over half full, as they were
pitched into the baggage ear with a crash.
They began packing a weekago. When the
subject was broached he said he preferred to
packhis own trunk, and he didn’t propose
to take a whole month to do it either. All
he intended to take along was'an extra suit, ‘
and he could throw that in most anyway.
Night before last he began work. It struck
him that he’d better put in an extra pair of
boots as a foundation and he flung ’em in and
braced ’em in the corners with his clean
shirts. The shirts didn’t seem to ride very
well, and he braced them‘ with two pairs of
trousers. Then be stuffed his Sunday coat
pockets with collars and cuffs and found a
place for it, used his white vests for “chink-
ing,” and the balance of his clothing just fit—
ted in nicely. . ‘
“The man who takes over ten minutes to
melt-7a trunk is a dolt l” said Mr. Bowerman,
as he slammed down the lid and turned the
key. . 4
Mrs. Bowerman had been at it just seven
days and seven nights,and when the husband
went up stairs at ten o’clock she sat down
before the open trunk with tears in her eyes.
“You see'how it is,” she explained, as he
looked down upon her in awful contempt.
“I’ve got only one part of my dresses in here;
saying nothing of a thousand other things,
and even now the lid won’t shut down. I’ve
got such a headache I must lop down for a
few minutes.” 7
“She went away to lop, and
man sat down and mused :
“Space is space. The use of space is
knowing how to utilize it." ‘ .
Removing everything, he began repaeking.
He found that a silk dress could be rolled to
the size of a quart jug. A freshly starched
lawn was made to take the place of a pair of
slippers. Her brown bunting fitted into the
niche she had reserved for three handker-
chiefs, and her best bonnet was turned bot—
tom up in its box and packed full of under—
clothing. He sat there .viewing sufficient
empty space to pack in a whole bed when she
returned and said he was the only real good
husband in this world, and she kissed him- on
the nose as he turned the key. 7 _
“It's simply the difference between the
sexes,” was his patronizing reply as he went
down stairs to turn on the burglar alarm.
When that wife opened that trunk last
night ! But screams and shrieks
would avail nothing—Detroit Free Press.

Lincoln’s Strength. 7
Abraha'in Lincoln's physical strength was
equal proportionately to his mental ability.
The‘follcwingincident, which is related by
General Viele, will, no doubt, prove interest-
ing. The Gen. says: “One morning, while
we were seated on deck, Mr. Lincoln saw an
axe in the locker of the bulwarks, and, tak—
ing it up, held it atarm’s length, at the ex-‘-
tremity of the helve with his thumb and
forefinger, continuing to hold it there for a
number of minutes. The most powerful fel-,
lows on board tried in vain to imitate him.
Mr. Lincoln said he could do this when he
was eighteen years of age, and had never
seen a day since that time when hecould not.
It is further related of this truly great man
that, on one occasion, he was seen to dash
into a crowd where two powerful men were
fighting, and, taking each by the collar, held
them out at arm’s ~ length in a most helpless
and ridiculous position. ,

A Word to our WOrklngmen.
Here are two or three significant facts,
taken from our dispatches of the last week,
to which We wish to call the attention of
American workin‘gmenand women.
1 During the las’ six days thirteen large
fisteamships have left the Mersey for North
all 'of whom are bound for the United States.
The number is unprecedei’lted. _
2 During the last month the tide of emi—
gration has increased to an unexampled ex-
tent at this season of the'year, not only from
Ireland, but Germany, England and the
Scandinavian nations. Most of the emigrants
to be mechanics, skilled workingmen or scr-
vants. .
3 The demand for this foreign labor is still
greater than the amply. The superintendent
‘at Castle Garden has hundreds of applicgtions‘
for women servants in advance of their ar-
rival. Swedish, Danish and French women
are preferred, because they are skillful, re-
spectful and neat, or, in other words, because,
having taken up domestic service as men do
a trade, that carry into it the qualities which
enable them to succeed. Good homes and
liberal wages are waiting for them. Now,
every American city and village is full, on
the one hand, of housekeepers Who want
such servants, and of American girls, shrewd,
nimble-fingered and intelligent, who either
prefer to starve at some other work, or if they
,go to skillful, near. or respectful.
There is a fact for the consideration of our
workingwomen; now for workingrieil.
4. Applications are sent in, far beyond the
supply of emigrants to fill, for mechanics of
7 every grade, carpenters, weavers, gardeners,
workers in every kind of metabolic. As our
have been imported during the last six
months by our manufacturing firms by the
hundreds, to so large an extent as to close
many of the mills in England. Yet every
American town and village is crowded with
idle boys and young men; not idle of their
own choice, but seeking vainly to find work
as bookkeepers,'clerks, or perhaps starving
as briefless lawyers and patientless doctors.
Comfort and a competence await the foreign
mechanic, while the American" of the same
class goes hungry. The principal cause of
this is that our trades a generation ago closed
their doors on apprentices in order to keep
down competition - .
The owner of the largest printing establish-
ment in Philadelphia tried 'in vain,‘ a few
years ago,‘ to find admission'yfor his son as an
apprentice in his own establishment. The
same rigor has been observedin almost every
trade. While, however, they can keep their
own and their neighbors’ soils out, they can—
not exclude the forcign mechanic,who,as we
have shown, is coming by the hundreds and
the thousands to step quietly into the com-
fortable places from which our ow people are
shut out. <
It is time .t oui’ working people should
waken to the folly of this suicidal policy. It
is all very well for us to boast that America
offers a refuge for the oppressed of every
nation._ She has done it in the past and long
will continue to do it. But it is hardly con-
sistent 7, with such a charter of universal
benevolence that her own children should be
the only ones forbidden to earn their bread in
the manner which seems best to them. .
The above, which we copy from the New
York Tribune, is worthy the careful'reading
and prayerful contemplation of e'veryAmer-
ican worker. This sudden influx of skilled
labor from Europe is the result of'thc-na'r—
row policy of our .labor organikations in pro—
hibiting the learning of trades except too
limited extent by young America. The neg-
lect to educate our own skilled mechanics
has created a demand for labor that is to be
supplied from Europe, whilst a vast number
of Americans are left to idleness simply be-
cause they are not permitted to educate
themselves as apprentices to the various
trades of ale country to supply the demand
for skilled labor. In this the labor organi:
zations of the United States have
overreached themselves, and are being
hoist by their own petards. Their policy
has been of the narrow gauge .for the pur—
pose of securing a scarcity and monopoly of
skilled labor that the rewards thereof might
be controlled and appreciated by themselves.
They never calculated uponilthe' possibility
that a demand would :draw upon Europe,
flood the country with foreign skill, and
thus overwhelm the country to a degree that
would defeat their own hopes and bring
undera competition which must inevitably
reduce the rewards of labor to a lower fig—
ure.
