“And if you were here would you kiss me again 2’”
Would I kiss you again, little friend,as of
old 1’
Would I kiss you again? Do you need to be
told ?
Why the question itself is something of bliss;
What. then would the consequence be of a
kiss ? ‘
Of a kiss such as you, in that passionate way,
Would press to my lips as you asked me to
stay ?
Do you think I’ve forgotten the passionate
thrill
That one touch of my hand couldaummon at
will ? .
Do you think I’ve forgotten that night by the
gate,
. Or the night that you coaxed me to «stay
there so late?
Or the pink dress you wore, or the light
turned so low,
That I really forgot it
t It
was time I should go i’
ii: a t *
And you, little friend, do you still think it
best
“To nestle once more in that haven of rest?"
Would you like to be held once more in my
amp ? . _
With your heart going out of your lips with
a gasp ?
Do you think it is well to risk it once more
And fight the heart battle that left it so sore ?
If you do, why be sure I'll not take it amiss,
And be only too happy to give you the kiss.
Just say when you want me, say when I’m
to come, '
And you'll find me quite ready, be sure, little
one.
The New Northwest.
Far away in the Northwest, as far beyond
St. Paul‘as St. Paul is beyond Chicago, stands
Winnipeg, the capital of Manitoba, and the
gateway of a new realm about to jump from
its present state of trackless prairies, as yet
almost devoid of settlement, to the condition
of our mcst prosperous Western States.
Here, bounded on the south by Dakota and
Montana, west by the Rocky Moutains,
north and east by the great Peace River
and the chain of lakes and rivers that stretch
from Lake Athabasca to Winnipeg, lies a
vast extent of country, estimated to contain
300,0000,000 acres, or enough to make eight
such States as Iowa or Illinois. Not all of_it.
in fertile, it is true, yet it may be safely said
that two-thirds of it are available for settle-
lement and cultivation.
_ In fact, the extent of available land in these
new countries is apt to be underestimated,
for if the traveler dees not see prairies waist
deep in the richest grass, he is apt to set
them down as barren lands; and if he crosses
a marsh he at once stamps it as land too wet
.for cultivation. Those, however, who re-
member thc early day of Illinois and Iowa
have seen lands then passed by as worthless
swamps now held at high prices as the best
meadow-land. This is a land of rolling
prairies and table-lands, watered by naviga-
ble rivers, and not devoid of timber.
Its climate is hardly such asonc would
select for a lazy man’s paradise, for the
winters are long and cold, and the summers
short and fiercely bot, though their shortness
is in some measure compensated for by the
_ great length of the midsummer days. Never-
theless, it is a land where wheat andmany
other grains and root crops attain the fullest
perfection, and is well fitted to be the home
of a vigorous and healthy race. Manitoba,
of which we hear so much now, is but the
mercst fraction of this territory, and, lying
in the southeast corner, is as yet the only
part accessible by rail. * * * .
Over this vast :region, and indeed all that
lies between it and the Arctic Ocean, for two
hundred years the Hudson Bay Company
exercised territorial rights. Till within a
few years it was practically unknown except
as n preserve of fur-bearing animals; and
prior to 1870 it was hard to find any infor-
mation as to its material resources or its
value. The Company discouraged every-
attempt that threatened to interfere with the
fur-bearing animals or the Indians who
trapped them; still it became known that
some of this vastregion was not utterly
worthless for other purposes; the soil lo'oked
deep and rich in many places,and in the wes-
tern part the buffalo found a winter subsis-
fence, for the snows were seldom deep, and in
the pure dry air and hot autumnal sun the
grasses, instead of withering, dried into
natural hay. The early egplor'ers, too, had
brought back reports of noble rivers, of for-
tile prairies, of great beds of coal, of belts
of fine timber. But what cared the Com-
pany for these 3 The rivers, it is true, were
valuable as being the homes of the otter, the
mink, and other fur-bearin ' animals, and
furnished fish for their employee, and high-
ways for their canoes. For the rest they
had no use. At last, in 1860, seeing that
they could no longer .cxclude the world
from these fertile regions, the Hudson Bay.
Company sold their territorial rights to
Canada, which now began to see its way to
a railroad across the continent, to link the
colonies from Nova Scotia to British Colum-
bia. "' * * -
Now it is evident .that the growth of this
region will be rapid, probably more rapid,
indeed, than that of our own Western States
that lie beyond the lakes; for in them there
had been a slow but steady increase of
population from a comparatively early day,
and when the railroads began to gridironthe
country from the great lakes to the Rocky
Mountains, the States east of the Missouri
already possessed a considerable popula-
tion.
In the new Northwest, however, we see a
land that has remained isolated from the rest
of the world, untrodden except by the Indian
or the trapper, suddenly thrown open for set-
tlement, and on terms as liberal as those of-
fered by our government or land-grant rail-
roads. .
The Canadian Pacific Railway is already
completed 150 miles West of Winnipeg,which
is already connected with our. Northwestern
railroads, and it is hoped, not without rea-
son, that another 500 miles will be completed
toward the mountains the present year. To
build two or even three miles a day across
such a country . asnthis division traverses
would be no extraordinary feat in modern
railroading. Branches, too, north and south,
will be rapidly constructed, not to accomo-
date existing trnfiic, but to‘ create it. Now
it seems as if nothing short of some financial
panic, some gross blunderiug or stupidity,
could delay the construction of the railroad,
or check the flood ohiinmigration that must
surely pour in. .
Can It be that, with the gove'rnmcnt'
Canada enjoys. one as free and fully as
' democratic as our own, the shadow of
monarchy will delay the occupation of this
land by other .races than that of the;Bl-lion ?
Here we shall have a chance to see how
Canadian enterprise compares with our own,
The N orthern Pacific Railway has its agents
for and wide tryingi to induce settlers to
purchase its lands and furnish traffic for its
lines. The two railroads are not far apart,
and the Canadians have quite as good, if not'
better, lands to offer. Will they be as ener-
getic, as successfu1,,as their cousins'across
the line l .
The climate of this region is far from what
one would expect from its northern latitude.
While it can not be said to be entirely safe
from early frosts as far north as Duhvegan, '
in latitude 66 ° , there is seldom any from the
middle of May till September, and even the
tender cucumber attains maturity. Wheat. ..
barley, and vegetables ripen every season at
the various posts along the Pearl River.
Wheat ripens even as far north as Fort
Simpson, in latitude 52°, while wheat and
barley from' the Lake Athabasca district
took a medal at the Centennial. These crops
it is true, have been raised oil the bottom-
lands albng the river; and though the table-
lands on each side are several hundred feet.
higher, they are protected by that very
elevation from those late and early frosts ev-
erywhere prevalent on low-lying bottom-
lands—T. E. Pnnxnnnoas'r, in Harpe‘ra

Fog andrco in the North Atlantic
That fog and ice are' the most dangerous
obstacles to the navigation of the North At-
lantic by :steam-sbips must, [I think, be
admitted -by every one .with practical
knowledge of the trade; and if they can be
avoided by a’morc southerly course than the
one heretofore followed,surcly the additional
distance is hardly a consideration to ships
capable of making three or four hundred
miles a day. If such a route can be followed
is it not the imperative duty, if not of the
companies engaged in the service, surely of
the governments interested in the trade, to
ascertain the southern limit of the- fog in
those months when ice is linbic'to be met
with; and if they cah not compel ships to
follow lanes, at least to designate the track
by which they may escape these dangers.
Two of the least expensive vessels in the
British or American navy in one season
alone could almost determine the matter.
With clear weather, night or day, the danger
of collision with ice is infinitesimal; with
fog, steaming full speed in a powerful screw.
steamer,.collision is inevitable with icebergs
that be in their track. In clear weather the
danger of collisions with other vessels or'
with each other is very slight; in fog, with
the best seamnnship and the greatest vigi-
lance possible, you are at the mercy of every
negligent or inefficient officer who may have
charge of the deck of a passing valet. ..It
therefore does not need asserting that the
track where the least fog is encountered is.
is the safest, and where there is no fog there
is absolutely no danger to a first-class
steam-ship, if the ordinary vigilance and
attention are exercised. We have had no
government survey of the Gulf Stream for
the last twenty years. Is it not timé con-
sidcriug the importance of this traffic be-
tween .England and America, that the two
countries co-operatcd in ascertaining the
limits of these fogs in the ice months, so
that at least the eastern passage could be,
made witll:almost a certainty of avoiding
them, andthbs'e who preferred the insurance
of clear weather to the one or twmhundred
miles that could be saved by running the risk
of encountering fog might have the certain
knowledge that immunity from it was only
a question of taking the longer distance.—

Notes on Foods.
In selecting our supplies of food, it is very
proper to consider which will give us the
most nutrimcnt, for the motley. The lum-
bermen who go into the forest, wherethey
will have hard work during a long and severe
winter, do not consult the books that show
the composition of food. ,Experience has
shown them that, as a main reliance, as a food
that, in their rough language, will “stick to
the ribs," which is another way of express-
ing flesh formers, there is nothing equal to
Form AND Bizarre—No chemical analysis
could lead t?) a better combination. In the
beans the flesh formei's are in large proportion
to the heat producers. and as an abundance
of both are needed, the fat of pork is added
as a heat producer. We have not the data
from which to make an accurate estimate,
but have no doubt that for those who take
active exercise in any occupation, the wastes
of the body may be more economically sup-
plied by this generaliy palatable food than by
any other. Those who have not eaten pork
and beans in a lumber camp, can have no
idea of this food in its most perfect condi-
tion. The beans are first boiled, then placed
in an iron pot which is covered. A hole is
made in the ground, and a fire built there;
when this fire has burned to coals, the pot is
set in, and the whole, pot and coals, covered
with earth. This is done in the evening, and
the pot is uncovered and taken out at break-
fast time the next morning. No wonder
that the lumbcrmen are the sturdy fellows
that they are!
Pn—Soor.-—A pound of peas will make a
gallon of soup. The peas should be washed
and soaked in cold water over night, then be
cooked in five pints of water, with gentle
simmering. A pound Of beef or a ham-bone
may be boiled with the peas; for seasoning,
add an onion with a few cloves stuck in. it,
salt to taste, and about forty whole grains a“
pepper. An ounce or two of sugar will add
greatly to the richness of this, as it does to
almost all soups. At the end of three hours'
simmering, pass the soup through a wire sieve
or colander, with the aid of n potato-masher.
Fry brown some squares of stale bread in
lard or drippings, and add just before serv-
ing, or serve these croutons, as they are
called, separately, to be added at pleasure.
Bean-soup may be made in a similar man-
ner.—Amm‘can Agrz'culturm for August.
Tomato Cutsup—Tomato Sauce.
The basis of Tomato Catsup, or Ketchup,
is the pulp of ripe Tomatoes. Many defer
making Catsup until late in the season, when
the cool nights cause the fruit to ripen
slowly, and it may be it is gathered hurried-
ly for fear of a frost. The late fruits does
not. yield so rich a pulp as that gathered in
its prime. The fruit should have all green
portions cut out. The pulp is then to be
separated from the skins, by rubbing
through ii wire sieve, so fine as to retain the
seeds. The liquor thus obtained, is to be
evaporated to a thick pulp, Over a slow fire,
and should be stirred to prevent scorching.
The degree of evaporation will depend upon
how thick it is desired to have the catsup.
We prefer to make line that it will just
pour freely from the bottle. We observe no
regular rule in flavoring. Use sufficient
salt. Season with cloves,allspice, and mace
bruised and tied in a cloth, and boiled in the
pulp: add a small quantity of powdered
cayenne. Some add the spices ground fine,
directly to the pulp. A clove of garlic,
bruised and tied in a cloth, to be boiled with
the spices, imparts a delicious flavor. Some
evaporate the pulp to 'a greater thickness
than is needed, and then thin with vinegar
or with win‘e.' An excellent and useful to.
mato sauce may be made by preparing the
pulp, but adding no spices, and putting it in
small bottles while hot, corking securely and
sealing. If desired, the sauce may be,boiled
before bottling. but this is not essential.
To add to soups. stews, sauces and made
dishes, a sauce thus prepared in an excellent
substitute for the fresh fruit. It should be
put in small bottles, containing as much as
will be wanted at once, as it will not keep
long after opening. —Ameri'can Agriculturt'at

Love Murrcd byBroochcs.
“I had rather an amusing love affair my.
self in Texas, which 1 should like to tell you,
if; you will not feel bored with my long
anecdotes," said the New York man, throw-
ing away his stump of cigar. “I was staying
at a ranche on the Rio Grande, and fell in
love, or thought I had fallen in love with a
beautiful little damsel who resided with her
father at a smallhacienda twenty miles-away.
I was the possessor of a new pair of buck-
skin brecches which I had purchased in New
Orleans, but had hitherto never worn. One
morning I put them on. They fitted perfect-
ly, hud'I was so delighted with the appear-
ance of my neither limbs that I determined
to pay a visit to Dpnna Isabella. When half
way on my ride it began to rain in torrents
and my breechefibegan to stretch, and the
stretching continued until they hung half a
dozen inches below my boot heels. I arrived
in the young lady's presence in rather a worse
looking condition than that of the drowned
rat. However, she received me kindly and
conducted me to the kitchen, where a roaring
fire was blazing. I not talking to her while
my clothes were drying, and was too much
occupied to think about my new breaches,
when my lo‘ve making was cut short by the
announcement of supper. I gave my arm
to the donna and entered the next room. We
Were greeted with shouts of laughter from a
large company of men and women who were
seated at the table. I glanced downward and
my eyes fell on the cause of their mirth. My
breechcs had shrunk with the heat until they
had rolled above my knees. leaving a wide
space of bare flesh between them and my
socks. A love for the aesthetic did not flour-
ish in those days, at least not in Mexico, and
I was glad to hide my legs under the table,
'-and for the rest of the evening I wrapped n'
mantilla round my limbs, I was too uncom-
fortable to resume my love making to Isabel-
la; besides, she laughed whenever she looked
at me. I slept there that night in a room en
the ground floor overlooking a wide meadow.
Thinking the fresh air would restore my
«
brooches to their normal condition, I took
them off and spread them .on the grass, and
then jumped back;through the window and
went to bed. In the morning I arose early
and looked for the cherished garments. A
dreadful sight met my gaze. 'Two cows
were contentedly breakfasting off them, and
only a portion of the seat and the band with
the buttons remained. I did not know what
to do and lay in bed waiting for the appear-
ance of one ofthe inhabitants of the house.
Presently Isabella's father went past my win-
‘dow; I bailed him and told him my plight.
He laughed and said he would fetch me a
pair of his trousers. Now 1 am tall and
spare; my Mexican host was short and enor—
mously fat; the trousers he produced me
were patched in every direction with cloth of
divers colors. Imagine my appearance when
I put them on, The rest of the houscbad
been told of my misfortune, so when I left
the room I found all the men'and girls in the
place, including Isabella, aWniting my debut,
I shall never forget the wild yells of laughter
which greeted me, and it struck me that Ian-
bella laughed louder than the rest. I made a
rush for the stable, hastily saddled my horse,
and without a word of farewell, rode off as
hard as I could. I never went to see Isabella
again. Nothing kills l_ove so badly as ridi-
cule."

Recipes.
GENUINE Soorcu MARMALADE.-Take
some bitter oranges and double their weight
of sugar; cut the rind off the fruit into
quarters and peel it off; if the marmalade
be not wanted very thick take off some of
the spongy inside. Cut the peel into chips
as thin as possible, and about half an inch
long, divide the pulp into small bits, remov-
ing carefully the seeds, which may be steep;
ed in part of the water that is to be used for
the marmalade, and which must be in the
proportion of a quart to a pound of fruit.
Put the chips and pulp into a deep earthen
dish and pour the water boiling over them ;
let them remain in for twelve or fourteen
hours, then turn the whole into a preserving-
pan and boil it until the chips are perfectly
tender. When they are so, add by degrees
the sugar (which should be free from lumps)
and boil the marmalade until it jellies. The
water in which the seeds have been steeped,
and which must be taken from the quantity
apportioned to the whole of the preserve,
should be poured into a hair sieve, and the
seeds well worked in it with the back of a
spoon; a strong, clear jelly will be obtained
by this means, which must be washed off
Ihem by pouring their own liquor through
the sieve in small proportions over them.
This must be added' to the fruit when it is
first set on the fire. Oranges, 3 lbs; water, 3
quarts; sugar, 0 lbs. If not desired very
bitter, six oranges (swect) and three lemons,
using the pulp of both, made by the same
receipt is delicious.
Baxnn INDIAN Punnmes.—One cup In-
dian meal; one cup molasses; alittle salt.
Mix the meal and molasses together and stir
into a pint of boiling water which you had
previoiisly put to heat in a spider. Scald
thoroughly. stirring all the time to prevent
burning. 'It should be a rather thick batter
when done. Some meal will require a little
more water, some a little less. Pour this
batter into a pudding dish and stir in a quart
of sweet skim milk. Bake two hours ina
hot oven; the pudding should boil., Stir
thoroughlyat least twice or until it does not
settle. Let it get about half cool before
serving. It is good without sauce, but
sweetened cream can be used if desired.

Dgunkcnncss in Russia.
"Nothing," observes the St. Pctcrsburg
correspondent of the Cologne Gazette, ”is to
be got out of a Russian peasant without
brandy; without it he will not strike a bar-
gain, start; on a journey, or undefiakc any
work. Every holiday is an occasion for
drink, and in the Russian Church there are
about 145 holidays in the year. Last your
subscriptions wore collected all over the em-
pire to furnish wheat for seed to the south-
eastern provinces. It was afterward proved
that in that starving time the peasants had
paid i7,00,000 rdublcs ' in taxes upon the
brandy which they made for their. own con-
sumption out of their scanty crop of wheat.
One-third of the entire revenue of the em-
pire is derived from spirit and illicit distill-
ing is universal. The duties on spirits have
been increased, but this only increases the
illicit manufacture of brandy."

A New Locomotive.
If the new hydrogen gas engine invented
by Dr. Charles Holland fulfills its promise
the world will have a very important'nddi-
tion to present ways of utilizing power. The
experiment made with Dr. Holland’s loco-
motive a day or two ago on the Eric railroad
was very interesting and satisfactory. The
locomotive drew a train from Paterson to
JerscyCity in one minute and ten seconds
less than the schedule time, and when it
ended its journey itshowed a pressure of 140
pounds of steam, more than twice as much
as the ordinary locomotive shows at the end
of such a trip. The cost of fuel was $2.08,
which is about one-third the cost of the coal
used in steaming the same distance.
The new engine is fueled with hydrogen
gag which is constantly reproduced by its
own heat from water through the :mcdiation
of a small proportion of crude naphtha. No
oil is burned in this process in the ordinary
or popular'scnsc of combination. It is used
exclusively with rctorts without air as a de-
composing agent for steam. The high tem-
perature of the fire chamber in which the rc- l
torts are set keeps them sufficiently hot
to disengage the oxygen of steam in the
presence of the carbon of the oil in
their interiors, the chemical‘ attraction
of these two elements causing them to
unite in the- proportion of perfect combus-
tion, and to become entirely converted into
carbonic acid within the rctorts. The re-
leascd hydrogen is therefore the only com
bustiblc ingredient left to issue at the burn-
crs at the height of the process. _ At the
same time the heat of both processes—the
decomposition within the retorts and the
combustion outside of thcmv—is confined and
utilized within the boiler for the making tof
steam. So great is this heat that if the dc.
composing agent (oil) be shut off it has been
found that the steam continues to decompose
by heat alone, and to issue with intensified
combustion at the burners for a considerable
time.
The process of “firing up" this new loco-
motive is thus described: A small priming
oil pipe runs under the four retorts, touching
each of them with six jets which are turned
on and lighted temporarily until the retorts
are hot enough to-vaporizc oil in their inter-
iors. Oil is then let into the rctorts under
pressure in a fine, thread-like stream, which
is not increased, but if anything, diminished,
as the process goes on to perfection and
maximum heat,. and immediately begins to
burn in vapor at the burner orifices, some 50
“of Which are directly under the retorts, and
now rapidly heats them up. Water is soon
let into the retorts and the heat increases
still faster. Steam pressure soon begins to
accumulate in the boiler, and within perhaps
80 minutes 30 or 40 pounds are indicated.
At this point steam is let into the rotors in-
stead of water, and the steam oil-pump is set
in motion keeping the oil at the steady, mod-
erate pressure required for entering the re-
torts against the pressure of steam and other.
gases within them. This is the usual starting
point in actual service, when steam is to be
got up for the day’s work, and the progress
of the fire is so rapid that not more than 15
or 20 minutes are required for firing up in
"readiness to run with 1100 to 130 pounds of
steam. ‘
One great advantage claimed for the H01-
land hydrogen-burning locomotive is that
with it there is absolute safety from fire in
case of accident. The entire fire is extin-
guished as instantaneously as a common
gas jet and in the same manner, by simply
shutting off both oil and steam at once. The
first shock of an accident will trip a closing
lever, and thus automatically put out the fire
before the wreck is begun. As to the oil, it
is confined in a tank as tight and strong as
the boiler itself, inclosed within the water
tank on the tender, and is communicated to
the retorts in streams of the size of sewing
cotton.
Early Dividends.
Capitalists are fond of buying stock that
yields dividends, and are quite content now
to get bonds that will pay four or five er
cent. annually. A neighbor of ours sprea a
barrowful of manure taken from under the
floor of a horse stable, about the middle of
April. The manure or earth had received
the urine of a horse for somemontbs, and
represented the value of that commodity. It
was spread on about a square rod of old
meadow, that had received no manure for a
dozen years or' more. The grass took a
fresh start soon after the application, and
clearly defined the dressed plat, by its dark
green, and luxuriant growth. On the twen-
tieth of June, the grass is so heavv. that it is
partly lodged and is ready for the scythe.
The yield of grass is certainly quadrupled by
the top-dressing. Sixty days from the date
of investment, he has a dividend worth at
least one-half the value of the manure. He
will get a second crop this season, which
makes another dividend. The sod below is
enriched with a great growth of grass roots,
which is an increase of capital, and will con-
tinue to give fair dividends for several years
to come. He is so well pleased with this
spring’s investment, that he has enlarged the
area of top-dressing on the meadow, and ap-
plied fresh manurc from the stable, made up
of leaves, and horse, and cow dung, on the
twentieth of June. The grass cut on this
second plot was very thin, certainly less than
a half ton to the acre. He confidently ex-
pects a dividend from this investment in
about sixty days, and permanent increase of
capital. Now is it not much better for:
cultivator to put his capital upon his own
land, under his own supervision, and get
good dividends, early and often, than to in-
vest ~in railroads, steamboatl, factories, or
Wall Street? Investing at home, he knows
just what he is about, and with an average
expenditure of brain and muscle, he can
command early dividends, and keep them
coming. The farm is a machine to make
money. Let us keep it in good repair, and
turn out the dollars—American Agriculturl'at

Prevention Better Than Cure.
Of all habits none are more incurable than
those created by tobacco and alcohol ;
of all depraved appetites none hold their vic-
time with more deadly grasp. So difiicult
and so uncertain is reform, that, were it not
for the discipline of soul which the Christian
reformer derives from the effort, he might
drop his hands in déspair and leave the vic-
tims to their fate. And here we learn from
the difficulty atoms the importance and
necessity of prevention. Here is the true
policy, here the true field of labor. Chil-
dren must be rightly trained; not yours and
mine alone. but the whole generation. In
this. work all. that, is done is badly done in
anything be left undone. We must imbue
lhe entire rising generation with hostility
against tobacco. We must educate them
to it from infancy. We must baptize, their
tender hearts with nbhorrencc of the vicious
habit. While schooling children in . this
manner, we are doing much more. We are
drawing them away from . a thousand vices,

A
. Progress and Happiness.
Indeed, the opportunities and advantages
of the age are so {immense the inven-
tions so prodigious, 'the convenience no
universal and supreme, that the observercon-
stantiy looks to see if there is a corresponding
advance in human welfare. The Arabian
stories are outdone. Ali Babe and Aladdin
familiar heroes. We own all the amulets.
We have mastered all the magic. But there
are those whoreflected, as they read those
wonderful tales, that while it was pleasant
for the Fortunatus to have his purse {and
rapturous for the prince to awake the
sleeping beauty, there was apparently the
same old sorrow and suffering on every side.
All the magic ended in individual gain, and
although fairy power haunted Bagdad, Bag-
dad was not fairyiand.
We know a charming and venerable lady
has-sometimes been a week upon the way.
We leave New York It half past ten, and
dine in the capital at two. Another old
friend made her bridal tour to Niagara sixty
years ago. But her grand-daughters can
make theirs to the Staubbach and Terni in a
shorter time. We know of the riot in Alex-
dria before it is suppressed. Longfellow
and Naples know it simultaneously. Fifty
years ago, if early winter night-fall overtook
Congress in session, a man toiled long and la-
boriously to make darkness visible with oil
and candles; now one touch floods the great
hall with day. It is a symbol of the sudden
flooding of the whole wbrld » with the news
of the moment. Frbm his office, his shop,
his home, a -' man with ’ his telephone talks
with his friend, his lawyer, his grocer, his
doctor, miles away. No fancied conven-
ience in his daily employment occurs to him
that is not already fact and waiting for him
to buy. His newspaper, a‘ library for five
cents, is but a type Of all. It is the age of
miracle. ' '
Is it also the age of greater happiness ? Is
the blessing universal ? Does the magnificent
and marvellous genius of- invention bind men
closer together ? We put a girdle round the
earth in forty minutes. In the fluff journey
one of general blessing ? Walking along the
street of palaces that leads to the beautiful
metropolitan pleasure-ground, marking the
elaborate workmanship,tbc costly splendor of
detail, catching glimpses of rooms rich with
the spoils of every zone, bright with exquisite
decoration, seeing the silken and laced and
jeweled figures that stop from stately car-
riages, and seem to float on air like spangles
on a sunbeam, do we feel that it is the purse
of Fortunatus,-good for himself and his family
«alone, or that all this splendor is but the
flower of a general prosperity, a universal
content? It is a momentous question,which
sentiment, not political economy, must au-
swer. Sentiment rules the world. It is the
sense of injustice, not a demonstration of
supply and demand, that upbeavcs society.
The golden age was not that in which inven-
tive genius wrought mircales, and when the
Alps, a region of ~dazzling icy heights and
cold dark valleys, was the symbol of human
society. It was prosperous, but it was pros-
perity of mutual good-will, of friendly inter-
est, of general cooperation. It was a dream
of pagans. But it wasa Christian world in
which they.bore one another's burdens. Tel-
egraphs ' and electric lights and cheap pe-
riodicals alone will not restore it. :But the
same spirit, and only spirit, will win Astrma
back again.—Edi'tor's Earn/Chair anai-per's
Magazine for August.
QunsN Cuanno'rrn Isnanns AND run Har-
nxs.— The climatc of who Queen Charlotte
Islands is excessively humid, and they are
almost everywhere covered with magnificent
coniferous trees. Mountains 4000 to 5000
feet high rise in their central portion, and
they are penetrated on all sides by dark deep
fiords with rocky walls.
To the northeast, it is true, a wide stretch
of low and nearly level country occurs, which
may some day support a farming population,
but at the presenttime its sombre woods, filled
with dense undergrowth, and bardcaded with
prostrate trunks in every stage of decay, ofler
little to induce either Indian or white to pene-
trate themr The Haidas, therefore, though
cultivating hero and there along the shores
small potato patches, are essentially fisher-
men. Few paths or trails traverse the inte-
rior of the islands, and of these some former-
ly used when the population was greater are
now abandoned.
The halibut is found in great- abundance in
the vicinity of the isfands, and it is more
particularly on this fish that the Haidas de-
pend. Their villages nrc invariably situated
along the shore, often on bleak, wave-lashed
parts of the coast, but always in proximity to
productive halibut banks. J burneys are
made in canoes along the coast. The canoes
are skillfully hollowed from the great cedar
trees of the region, which, after being worked
down to a certain small thickness, are steam-
ed and spread by the insertion of cross-
pieces till they are made to assume a most
graceful form, and show lines which would
satisfy the most fastidious ship-builder. In
their large canoes the Haidas do not hesitate
to make long voyages on the open sea; and
in former days, by their frequent descents on
the coast of the main land, and the facility
with which they retreated again to their own
islands, they rendered themselves more
dreaded than any tribe from Vancouver to
Sitka.
In their mode of life, and the ingenuity
and skill they display in their manufacture
of canoes and other articles, the Haidas do
not differ essentially from the other tribes
inhabiting the northern part of the coast of
British Columbia and Southern Alaska. In
the Queen Charlotte Islands, however, the
peculiar style of architecture and art else-
where among the Indians of the west coast
more or less prominently exhibited appears
to attain its greatest development. Whether
this may show that to the Haidas or their
ancestors the introduction of this is due, or
indicate merely that with the greater isola.
tion of these people, and consequent increas-
ed measure of security, the particular 'idcas
of the Indian mind were able to body them-
selves forth more fully, we may never know.
The situation of the islands, and the com-
parative infrequency with which they have
been visited for many years, have at least
tended to preserve intact many features which
have already vanished from the customs and
manufactures of most other tribes.
As before stated, the permanent villages of
the Haidas are invariably situated at the sea-
shore. They consist generally of a single
long row of houses, with but a narrow grassy
border between it and the beach, on which
the canoes of the tribe (for each village con-
stitutes a chieftaincy) are drawn up. In front
of each house stands a symbolicg carved
post, while other carved posts, situated irreg-
ularly, and differing somewhat in form from
those proper to the houses, are generally
memorials to the dead. Such a. village, seen
from a little distance 00!, the houses and
posts gray with the weather, resembles a
strip of half-burned forest with dead “ram-
pikes." The little cloud of smoke from the
various fires may, however, serve to indicate
its true .character.—Gaoacn M. DAWSON in
Harper‘s Mamet/refer August.

God and Ills Flowers.
The flowers of many climates
That bloom all seasons through
Met in a stately garden
Bright with the morning dew.
For praise and loving worship
The Lord they came to meet ;
Her box of precious ointment
The Rose broke at His feel.
0
The Passion Flower His symbols
Wore fondly on her breast;
She spoke of self-denial
As what might please Him best.
The Morning Glories fragile,
Like infants soon to go,
Had dainty toylike trumpets,
And praised the Master so.
“His work. is like to Honey,”
The clover testified,
" ‘lnd all who trust Thy pfornisc
‘hall in Thy love abide."
The Lilies said, “O trust Him,
We neither toil nor spin,
And yet His house of beauty,
See how we enter in l”
The Kingcup and her kinder
Said : “Let us all be glad;
Of his redundant sunshine,
Behold how we are clad."
“And let us follow Jesus,”
The Star of Bethlehem said.
And all the band of flowers
Bent down with rev’rent head.
The glad Sunflower answer’d, .
And little Daisies bright,
And all the cousin Astcrs:
“We follow toward the light I”
- “We praise Him for the mountains,"
The Alpine Roses cried;
“We bless Him for the valleys,"
The Violets replied.
“We praise Him," said the Airplanf,
“For breath we never lack;
“A‘nd for the rock we praise Him,”
The Lichens answered back.
‘ch praise God for the waters,”
The gray Seamosses sighed;
And all His baptized Lilies
“Amen! Amen I" replied.
“And now for the green, cool woodlands
We praise and thanks return,”
Said Kalmais and Azalcas,
And graceful FLRUJEI')’ Fun.
“And for the wealth of gardens
And all the gard‘uer thinks,"
Said Roses and Camclias,
And all the sweet breath’d Pinks.
“Hosannah in the highest,"
The Baby Blunts sang.
And little trembling Harebeils
With softest music rang.
“The winter hath been bitter,
The sunshine follows storm,
Thanks forhis loving kindness,
The earth’s great heart is warm.”
‘ So said the pilgrim May Flower
That cometh after snow,
The llurnbiest and the sweetest
Of all the flowers that blow.
“Thank God for every weather,
The sunshine and the wet,"
Spoke out the cliuvrl‘ill l'uIISII‘S,
‘Al:d drilling Mignonctlc.
And then the sun descended,
The heavens were all agiow ;
The little Morning Glories
Had faded long ago.
And now the bright Day Lillies
Their love watched ceased to keep—
“He giveth,” said the Poppies—
"To his beloved sleep.”
The gray of evening deepened.
The soft wind stirred the corn,
When sudden in the garden
Another fiowcr was born.
It was the Evening Primrose.
Her sisters followed fast;
With perfumed lips they whispered,
"Thank God for night at last.”
A COMPLAINT.
Br J. (3. Norman.
River, sparkling river, I have fault to find
with thee;
River, thou-dost never give a word of peace
to me
Dimpling to each touch of sunshine, wimp— '
ling to each air that blows.
Thou dost make no sweet replying to my
sighing for repose.
Flowers of mount and meadow, I have fault
with you; ‘
So the breezes cross and toss you, so your
cups are filled with dew,
Matters not though sighs give motion to the
ocean of your breath;
Matters not, though you are filling with the
chilling drops of death! '
Birds of song and beauty, 10! I charge you
all with blame :— '
Though all the hapless passions thrill and fill
me, you are still the same. .
I can :borrow for my sorrow nothing that
avails
From your lonely note, that only speaks of
joy that never fails.
0! indifierence of nature to the fact tbathu—
man pain I
Every grief that seeks relief entreats it at
her hand in vain ;
Not a bird speaks forth its passions, not a
.river seeks the sea,
Nora fiOWer from wreaths of summer breathes
in sympathy with me.
0! the rigid rock is frigid, though its bed
be summer mold,
And the diamond glitters ever in the grasp of
changeless gold ; ,
And the laws that bring the seasons swing
their cycles as they must,
Though the ample road they trample blind
the eyes with 'human dust.
Moons will wax in ardent glory, though man
wane in hopeless gloom;
Stars will sparkle in their splendor, though
he darklc to his doom;
Winds of heaven he calls to fan him,ban him
with an icy chill,
And the shifting crowds of clouds go drift-
ing o’er him as they will.
Yet within my utmOst spirit 1 can hear an
undertone,
That by law of prime relation holds these
voices as its own,— V
The full tonic whose harmonic grandeurs
rise through nature‘s words,
From the ocean's thundrous rolling to the
trolling of the birds.
Spirit, 0! my spirit! Is it thou art out of
tune .
Art thou clinging to December, while the
earth is in its June? '
[lust thou dropped thy part in nature ? Hast
thou touched nnotber key P
Art thou angry that'thc anthem wrll not,can-
not wait for thee?
Spirit, thou art left alone—alone on water:
wild ;
For God is good,'el.-d Love is dead, and Na-
ture spurs her child,
Thou art drifting in a deluge, waves below
and clouds above, <
And with weary wings come back to thee.
