ff'l‘he Tale of the Aloe Plant.”
_
{'Havc you heard of the tale of the
Plant,”
Away in the sunny clime,
How by humble growth of a hundred years,
It reaches its blooming time;
And then a wondrous bud at its crown
Bursts into a thousand flowers ?
This floral queen, in its beauty scen,
Isjhc pride of the tropical bowers;
But the plant to the flower is a sacrifice,
For it blooms but once, and" in blooming
dies. ‘
“Have you further heard of this Aloe Plant,
That gIOWS in the sunny climc,
How every one of its thousand flowers,
As they fall in the blooming time, -
,Gives an infant tree, that fastens its roots
In the place where they fall to the ground;
And as fast as they drop from the dying
stems, _
Grow lively and lovely around 1’
By dying it liveth a thousand—fold.
In the young that springs up from the death
of the old."

The Rags Ofthe United States.
A Chicago rag dealer estimates that each
Aloe
of the 50,000,000 people Of the United States .
discards an average of five pounds of cloth-
ing yearly, which makes 250,000,000 pounds
for the whole. Then, he says. there are the
tailoring establishments, big and little,
_ whose cuttings are not much less in
quantity in the aggregate, than the cast-off
clothes of the nation at large, while their
quality as rags is greatly superior. Then
there are chrpets and bedding. and curtains,
and other domestic articles of cloth of some
_ kind, which :make up a goodly bulk in the
course of a year. These different articles
combined make up another 250,000,000
pounds of cloth material, which has been
discarded from us,and which eventually finds
its way into the rugmun‘s bale. His estimate
is that 100 car-loads of rags enter and leaw:
Chicago daily. ' '

Tread Water and save Your Life.
When one of the inferior animals takes the
water, falls, or is thrown in, it instantly be—
gins to walk as it does when out of the water
But when a man who cannot “swim” falls
into the water, he makes a few spasmodic
struggles; throws up his arms anddrowns.
The brute, on the other hand, treads water,
remains on the surface, and is virtually in-
submergible. In order, then i§ to do as the
brute does, and that is to tread or walk the
water. The brute has no advantage in re-
gard of his relative weight, in respect of the,
water, over man, and yet the man pcrishcs
while the brute lives. Nevertheless,any man
any woman, any child who can walk on the
land may also walk in the water just as read-
ily as the animal does, if only will, and
that without any prior instructioil or drilling
whatever.—-Natm'c..

POVERTY AND DRUNRENans.—I would
not say harsh words against poverty; where
ever it comes it is a bitter ' - but you will
mark, as you notice carefu that, while a
few are poor because ofuuavoidablc circum-
stances, a very large mass of the property of
i London is the shear and clear result of pro-
fuscncss, want of forethought, idleness and
worst of all, drunkenness. Ah, that drunk-
enness! that is the master evil. If drink
could-be got rid of we might be sure of con-
quering the very devil himself. The drunk-
enness created by the infernal liquor-dens
which plague spot the whole of this huge
city is appalling. No-I do not speak in haste
or let slip a hasty word ; many of the drink-
houses are ' nothing less than infernal; in
some respects they are Worse, for hell has its
uses as a divine protest against sin, but as
for the gin-palace, there'is nothing to be Said
in its favor. The vices of the age cause
three-fourths of the poverty. If you could
look at the homes tonight, the wretched
homes where women will tremble at the
sound of their husband's foot as he comes
home, where little children will crouch down
with fear upon their little heap of straw. be-
cause the human brute wk) calls himself “a
man” will come rolling home from the place
where he has been indulging his appetite—
if you could look at such a Sight, and re-
membcr it will be seen ten thousand times
over tonight, I think you would say, “God
help us bygall means to save some." Since
the great axe to lay at the foot of this deadly
upas tree is‘ the Gespel of Christ, may God
help us to hold that axe there, and to work
constantly with it till the huge trunkof the
poison tree begin to rock to and fro, and we
get it down, and London is saved from the
wretchedness and misery which now drips
from every bougb.—0. H. Spurgeon.

A TRIBUTE.
RY THOMAS ’II. so'rmm.
' To the memory of the lamented President,
J was A. GARFIELD, Sept. 20, 1881.
A Nation mourns! a sympathetic tear,
Dropp’d by the people of all lands, attests
The universal brotherhood of man.
What sad event, what casualty, hath touch’d
The tender cord, that links humanity ?
Earth, by catastrophics, hath oft been stirr’d :
Hero’s have died : Monarch‘s have been
hurl’d from thrones : .
Cities laid waste ; their populace destroy’d
By Wars, and Nature’s cccentricities;
Volcanic fires, her inundations, storms, ~ .
Her fumine’s, pcstiieuccs, plagues!
These have evok'd commisscrativc sighs,
And passing'cxclumntions; or the aid
Which wealth donatestojsuch calamities ;
But ne'er have mov‘d the universal heart
Like him; who houor’d by his fellows call,
To t die the highest sent, within their gift,
Was, by a murd’rers hand, shot down; from
thence.
By weeping friends, laid on a bed~of pain,
Where death, at last, the tragedy fulfill’d.
Again, ’tis ask’d ; why this unmeasur’d grief,
This universal drapery of woe ? '
’Twas that a good man fell ; a man for whom
Scripture declares, “Some would be found to
die."
A life onnor, was thus jeopardiz’d,
And from each sigh, that issued from his
couch, '
Echo awoke in ev’ry patriots breast,
In ev'ry saintly soul, a fervent pray’r.
The weary days and monthsiintensifled
The deep solicitudc for Heav’ns relief,
Which Ocean bounded not: Earth’s air was
,stirr’d, .
Nor did its currents rest, till all had felt
Inspir’d. to ask of God to heal and save.
There was around that patient sulf’rers bed
An influence divine; which shed itself .,
O’cr all humanity ; awaking mind
To loathe the bloody deed, which, thus, had
laid
A Nation’s hope in agonlz’d suspense ;
Which threatcn’d to deprive a loving wife
And family, of their adored head. _
He liv’d as man should live, and thus he
died ;
And his fond memory will long survive.
Example for his fellows every where.
Methinks, James Garfield hath not died in
vain! '
A life prOlong’d, jut-t long enough to form
A perfect character (faultless as for
As frail humanity doth e'er'attain)

That there is true nobility in toil,
With sure reward for honest enterprize,
For laudable attempts to raise their lot.

They were walking on the avenue the other
evening when it was so very warm, arrayed
in their summer clothes. In the distance
shone the light of an ice cream saloon, merry
inside with the jingle of spoons and dishes.

"Oh, because—because, Oh, look, Gus!

“I read, Angelique, darling, in the paper
to-day that, ice cream contained the germs of
small pox. That is the reason I didn’t ask
you to have some. Let’s go and get some

“But I’ve'been told the grasshoppers take
a good deal of it.
"Of course they do. If they didn’t I
don‘t know what we would do. The cussed
stuff would run all over the State and drive

“Plump! W by, I don’t know what you

TEMPERANCE.
Uontrlbutedbynadles of Norwalk Temp. Union,
The crown of thorns that was placed upon?
the brow of Christ seemed to thc eye like a:

So in the festivity of the social glass the
its redness and its sparkling “color in the

Twelve thousand dollars has been award-
cd, in one case in Illinois, for the loss sus-
tained by a wife through her husband's fall-
ing into habits of intcmpclancc, discontinu-
ing his business and wasting his means.
When in slavery, the colored people could
not get liquor; but now they do, and their
social nature and idle habits rendered them
especially susceptible to the temptatiOns and
appetite for strong drink. Hence the vice
has grown, and drunken negroes in the South
are numerous; but they have a great deal of
faith, hope and love in their character, and
through'thesc lovers can be reached.
The bureau of statistics of Massachusetts
has just published a report from which it
appears that during the last twenty years
sixty per cent. of all sentences for crime in
this state were for drunkenness or similar
offenses. Of the forty per cent. it appeared
that more than half were associated with
drink, so that we have about 84 per cent. of
crime in Massachusetts connected with li-
quor drinking. If this. is so, is it not the
duty of all who desire the peace of the com-
munity, who have anyjfccling for those who
suffer so terribly from drunken husbands
and drunken fathers, to unite in all possible
ways to reduce or abate this black fountain
of crime? These methods may be reduced
to two. . 1. Take away the outward temp-
tations to drink. 2. Take away the inward
motives of drinking.
Men may theorize as they please, but
practically there is an average experience no
such thing as a moderate dose of alcohol.
People drink it to produce an effect. They
take enough to “fire up," as they say, and
when that effect is produced they are not,
satisfied. They will have enough to raise-
tbcir spirits, or dissipate gloom. And this
is enough to impair judgment, and in the
course of years perhaps to ruin fortune, body
and soul. The compass is out of line in life’s
dangerous sea, and a few storms may bring
the shipupon the breakers—12cc. sepia

So the only sure way to make good
governments is to make good citizens. So
far as we have tried this way, its success has
been very great. We have two semi-omni-
potent educational, forces the school and
dram-shop. Both are controlled by the
State. The State uses the school to make
its people better. It permits the dram-shop
to make them worse. Nothing can do more
to ensure good government than the one, or
more to prevent. it than the other. The
school educates our children, fits them to
guide and support theState, makes them
better voters, better citizens. The dram-shop
educates our youth, our adults, makes them
less fit to guide and stipport the State, makes
them worse voters, wo'rse citizens. . The

John Bull’s Bill for Liquor.
[Boston Herald.) ’
It is said by Charles Buxlou that “drunk-
enness is the most dreadful of 011 the ills
which afflict the British isles." Aside from
the moral aspect of. the question, the mere
money-burden of the expenditure upon intox-
icating liquors iu the United Kingdom would
be regarded as incredible and absolutely in-
supporlablc, if the load were not evident
and sturdily sustained. In a recent com-
munication to The London Times Mr. Wil-
liam Hoyle showed, by a table based on the
excise returns, that in Great Britain and Ire-
land, during the year 1878, the consumption
of spirits,winc and beer rose to the monstrous
total of $1,190,886,401 gallons, appraised at
$710,944,500. A sea of liquor costing a
mountain of gold! Mr. Hoyle classified his
figures rs under:
Gallons. Value.
Spirits 39,797,352 $209,975,395
Wm e 16,272,295 73,225,335
Malt liquors 1,117,316,754 618,993.780
Cider, etc.. 17,500,000 8,750.00
1,190,886,401 $710,914.609
When a sum runs into the hundred of mil-
lions it rises beyond the reach even of trained
conception. There is, however, one com-
parison which will give our readers some idea
of the magnitude of the expenditure noted
above, Last year the exports from the
United States were by far the largest ever
known. We sent abroad everything that
we could raise and spare. We shipped
wheat and corn in such quantities that we
outstripped, not only precedent, but proph-
ccy. We exported a world of pork and ba-
con, Of butter and cheese, of petroleum and
tobacco, and the world’s supply of cotton.
We consigned manufactures of every de-
scription to every country that would take
them, After we had stripped ourselves and
glutted our neighbors, we counted the value
and rejoiced with an exceeding joy to find
that our domestic exports footed up 3722,-
538,161. Amarvcllous sum truly. No won-
dcr it set usagape, with our hands'in the air
Yet, enormous as were our shipments, they
only exceeded $11,532,601 the wholesale
cost of the liquor which John Bull poured
down his thirsty throat in the same twelve
months.
The expenditure for intoxicating drink in
the United Kingdom actually exceeded by
$908,845 the sum spent in 1877. The increase
be it remembered, ran in the teeth of the
wide-spread depression in British trade, of
which we have heard much and even more
for a year back. The addition came exclu-
sively, and, indeed, with tenfold force, in
malt liquors. These made again of $10,380620
upon their value in the year before. On the
other hand spirits fell” off $1,176,870, and
wine showed a still" larger reduction of $6,-
295,405. Plainly dull times and unprofitable
business reduced the consumption of liquor
among the upper and middle classes. But
cut-downs” which followed one another
throughout the year, availed to keep the
British workman from his beer. '
The most disheartening fact about the sit-
uation is the‘direful increase in the amount
spent for liquor in Great Britain and Ireland
within the past fifteen years. During the
four year period, 1860 to 1863, the annual ex-
penditure averaged $453,494,420. During the
four-year period just ended, 1875 to 1878,the
annual average rose to $717,951,950, an en-
largement of over 58 per cent. The popu-
lation of the United Kingdom in 1803 was es-
timated at 29,433,918, acd in 1878 at 33,799-
269, an increase of 4,365,358,0r. not quite 14%
per cent. Thus to speak roundly, the value
of the liquor consumed has grown four times
faster than the number of consumers. If the
amount spent in 1878 had at the ;same rate
per head as in 1853, it would have been no
more than $520,702,290—enough, in all con-
science, but less by $197,247,660 than the
actual expenditure. Think Of it ; a country
which sees the wolf at its door and fills the
world withlits outcries, because for the last
six years the exports of British manufactures
have shown an average annual decrease of
$52,477,500, is spending $197,249,660 for li-
quor,:in excess of the proportionate sum
which it expended 15 years back:

LONGFELLOW.
ntil-wc mect‘hgaiu! That is the meaning
I the familiar words that men repeat
_ At parting in the street. '
Ah, yes, till then! but when death interven-
lug
Bends us asunder, with what ceaseless pain
We wait for the Again!
0C
The friends who leave us;do not feel the sor-
row .
Of parting as we feel it who must stay
Lamentiug day by day,
And knowing, when we wake upon the mor-
row,
We shall not find in its accustomed place
The one beloved face.
It were a double grief, if the departed,
Being released from earth, should still retain
A sense of earthly pain;
It were a double grief if the true-hearted
Who loved us here, should on the further
shore - ‘
Remember us no more.
Believing, in the midst of our afflictions,
That death is a beginning, not an end.
We cry to them, and send
dictions . _
Being foreshadowings of the future thrown
Into the vast Unknown.
Faith overleaps the confines of our reason,
And if by faith, as in old times wasfaid,
Women rcceivcd_their dead
Raised up to life, then only for a season
Our partiugs are, nor shall we wait in vain
Until we meet again.
'sullniit palatal.
It is asserted by M. Emile de Lavclyc that
the world’s available supply of the so-callcd
precious metals is rapidly diminishing, and
while it‘may not soon become exhausted, the
time cannot be far hence when it must be-
come inadequate to meet all demands upon
it. It can hardly be filled by new discoveries
for any extended period, as the quantities
existing at the earth’s surface can at best be
but very limited, althOugh vast masses prob-
.ably exist in the inaccessible interior of the
globe. It is computed that the world is five
'timesasan equal volume of water, while
the rocks of the earth‘s surface only average
two and one-half the weight of water. It
follows from this that the still molten centre
must contain a great amount of very heavy
substances. With water as spoil, the spe-
- cific gravity, “or comparative weight, of gold
- , Pug“. . Six Bottles to one address, 35,.
'is about 19, platinum 21, and iridium 22,
silver being but 10 and iron 8. When the
globe was in a liquid state, these metals
would have had a tendency to gravitate to-
Ward the centre, and those of extreme den-
sity now found by us, owe their appearance
near the surface to volcanic agencies. The
great bulk must yet remain near to the cen-
tre.
According to the recent estimate of Sir W. '
Armslrong, the heat of the sun falling upon
one acre of the earth’s surface in the tropics,
would be capable, if fully utilized, of devel-
oping a power 'of 4,000 horses for nearly nine
hours every day: The most promiSing
means of adapting this vast energy to man’s ‘
purposes seems tom: the conversion of the
héat into electricity, and the production of
economical apparatus for effecting this result
is now eagerly awaited. '
Sir W. Thompson has recently calculated
that the energy of Niagara Falls might be
converted into electricity, and carried'ovcr a
' half-inch copper wire to Montreal, Boston,
New York or Philadelphia, with a loss of
only 20 per cent, of powef, and at a cost
which would render this an economical
source of energy. He believes that the last
great difficulty in the way Of making elec-
tric force available, economically. at a dis-
tance, has been overcome by the invention
of Faurc’s storage or accumulating battery.
.By its aid the electric current. may be stored
as received and psed as desired, in a'subdi.
vided form, for the production of the elec-
tric light or as a motive power.
Whether or not fishes have intervals of
sleep, like the land animals with which we
. are familiar, has but just been decided. The
curious behavior of a dozen carp in the
Berlin aquarium attracted attention, and in-
vestigation showed that the fish When in cer-
tain positions in which they would remain
for hours were in reality asleep. Some of
them slept so soundly that only repeated.
blows or shaking would awaken them.
The flesh of a pike recently caught in the
North Sea, has been found to be full of
trichintc. The parasites are supposed to
ofi'al eaten by it.
Longitude on the earth’s surfuce is now
computed from various meridians by difier—
eat countries. At the recent meeting of the
Geographical Congress in Vienna, Professor
Barnard, of Columbia College, proposed a
new system for universal use, the plan being
to divide the globe into 24 meridians of 15
degrees each, corresponding to the 24 hours
of the day, the first meridian to pass through
Behrring Strait.
Geologists estimate the coal beds of Great
Britain to have an area of about 12,000
square miles; of Spain, 4,000; of France,
2,000, and of Belgi , 518. The coal bear-
ing area of the Uni ed States is nearly 200,
000 square miles, with perhaps 120,000 square
miles of workable beds of coal: .
The effects of sea water upon land have
been thus determined at a German' station of
experimental agriculture: “Laud that has
been submerged by sea water generally
proves sterile for some time; in some cases
from ten to fifteen years. This can be traced
to the cooperation of the three following
chemical causes, in addition to the mechani-
cal injuries produced by the inundation: To
the introduction of too great a proportion of
chlorine salts;- to the hydroscopic property
communicated to it, preventing it from dry-
ing properly; from the formation of green
vitriol or sulphate of iron, which is known
to exert a very prejudicial effect upon plant
growth. Land which has been thus damaged-
should be drained as quickly as possible,
sown with grass and clover and allowed to
rest. Experience shows that it recovers its
fertility sooner if treated in this way thau‘if
cultivated all the year round as arable land."
Ocean waves sed by earthquakes some-
times exert a tre endous momentary force
upon the shores of the sea, although their
geological action is small compared with the
incessantly operating wear of the smaller
waves. At the Lisbon earthquake of 1855,
the oceanic wave had a height along the Ta-
gus of 40 feet, at Cadiz of 60 feet, and on
the shores of Madeira of 18 feet. The earth-
quake of 1746 in Peru, produced‘a wave
which carried a frigate several miles inland,
delugiug the city of Lima at a distance of
seven miles from the coast.

An Aristocratlc Tramp.
Edward Thompson, a tramp, who has been
living the life of an abjectly poor wanderer
~ and who has been under arrest for stealing a
mule at Hernaudville, Miss, was acquitted
at midnight Thursday, owing to aristocratic
interference. Lady Thompson of England,
having been apprised of ’the prisoner’s in-
carceratiou sent several hundred pounds to a
firm of Memphis lawyers to be used in his
behalf. Thompson is a son‘of the late Ad-
miral Thompson Kieb of the British ”navy
and a grandson of a British admiral who led
one of the most important fleets uuder'Nel-
son at the battle of Trafalgar. He has been
a trump for several years.
