THE TRUE HEAVEN. FAUL n. ItAYSE. Tlie bliss for which our spirits pine, That bliss we feel shall yet bo given? Somehow, in some far realm divine, Some marvelous state we namea heaven? Is not the bliss of languorous hours, A glory of calm, measured range, But life which feeds our noblest powers On wonders of eternal change; A heaven of action freed from strife, With ampler ether for the scepi Of an immeasurable life, And an unbaffled, boundless hope; A heaven wherein all discords cease. Self-torment, doubt, distress, turmoil, The core of whose majestic peace Is god-like power of tireless toil. Toil without tumult, strain or jar, With grandest reach of range indued, Unchecked by <jven Ihe farthest star That trembles through infinitude, In which to soar to hicher heights Through widening others stretched abroad, Till in our onward, upward flights, We touch at last the feet of God! Time swallowed in eternity! No future evermore, no past, But ono unending Now, to be A boundless circle round us cast. ?Harper's Montldy. A RIFT IN THE CLOUD. BY T. S. ABTHUR. Andrew Lee came home at evening from the shop where be had worked all day, tired, and out of spirits? came home to his wife, who was also tired and out of spirits. "A smiling wife and a cheerful home? what a paradise it would be!" said An? drew, to himself, as he turned his eyes from the clouded face of Mrs. Lee ' and sat down, with knitted brows and moody aspect. Not a word was spoken by either. Mrs. Lee was getting supper, and she moved about with a weary step. "Come," she said fit last, with a side glance at her husband. There was invitation in the word only, none in the voice of Mrs. Lee. Andrew arose and went to the table. He was tempted to speak an angry word, but controlled himself, and kept silence. He could find no fault with the chop, or sweet home-made bread, nor the fra? grant tea. They would have cheered the inward man, if there had only been a gleam of sunshine on the face of hi3 wife. He noticed that she did not eat. "Are you not well, Mary?" The words were on his lips, but he did not utter them, for the face of his wife looked bo repellant that he feared an irritating reply. And so, in moody silence, the twain sat together until Andrew had fin? ished his supper. As he pushed his chair back, his wife arose, and commenc? ed clearing the table. "This is unbearable!" said Lee to himself, as he commenced walking the floor of their little breakfast-room with his hands thrust desperately away down into his trouser pockets, and his chin almost touching bis breast. After removing all the dishes and taking them into the kitchen, Mrs. Lee spread a green cover on the table, and placing a fresh trimmed lamp thereon, went out and shut the door after her, leaving her husband alone with bis un? pleasant feelings. He took a long, deep breath as he did so, paused in bis walk, stood still for some moments, and draw? ing a paper from his pocket, sat down by the table, opened the sheet, and com? menced reading. Singularly enough the words upon which his eyes rested were "Praise your wife." They rather ten? ded to increase the disturbance of mind from which he was suffering. "I should like to find some occasion for praising mine." How quickly his thoughts expressed that ill-natured senti? ment. But his eyes were on the page before him, and he read on? "Praise your wife, man; for pity's sake give her a little encouragement; it won't hurt her." Andrew Lee raised his eyes from the paper, and muttered, "Oh yes, that's all very well. Praise is cheap enough. But praise her for what? For being sullen, and making your home the most disagreeable place in the world ?" His eyes fell again on the paper. "She made your home comfortable, your hearth bright and shining, your food agreeable; for pity's sake, tell her you thank her, if nothing more. She don't expect it; it will make her eyes open wider than they have for ten years but it will do her good] for all that* aud you too." It seemed to Andrew as if this sentence was written just for him, and just for the occasion. It was the complete an? swer to his question, "Praise her for what?" and he felt it almost as a re? buke. He read no further, for thought eamc too busy, and in a new direction. Memory was convincing him of injustice towards his wife. She had always made his home as comfortable for him as hands could make, and had he offered the light return of praise or Commenda? tion? Had he ever told her the satisfac? tion be had known or the comfort expe? rienced ? He was not able to recall the time or occasion. As be thought thus Mrs. Lee came in from the kitchen, and taking her work basket from a closet, placed it on a table, sat down without speaking, began to sew. Mr. Lee glanced almost stealthily at the work on her hands, and saw that it was the bosom of a shirt, which she was stitching neatly. He knew that it was for him that she was at work. "Praise your wife." The words were before the eyes of his mind, and he could not look away from them. But he was not ready for this yet. He still felt moo? dy and unforgiving. The expression of his wife's face he interpreted to be ill nature, and with ill-nature he had no pa? tience. His eyes fell upon the newspa? per that lay spread out before him, aud he read the sentence: "A kind, cheerful word spoken in a gloomy home, is like the rift in a cloud that lets the sunshine through." Lee struggled with himself a while longer. His own ill-nature had to be conquered first; his moody accusing spirit had to be subdued. But he was coming right, and at last got right, as to will. Next came the question as to how he should begin. He thought of many things to say, yet feared to say them, lest his wife should meet his advances with a cold rebuff. At last, leaning to? wards her, and taking hold of the linen bosom upon which she was at work, be said, in a voice carefully modulated with kindness: "You are doing this work very beauti? ful, Mary." Mrs. Lee made no reply. But her husband did not fail to observe that she lost almost instantly, that rigid erectness with which she bad been sitting, so that the motion of her needle hand ceased. "My shirts are better made and whiter than those of any man in our shop," said Lee, encouraged to go on. "Are they?" Mrs. Leeh voice was low, and had in it a slight buskiness. She did not turn her face, but her husband saw that she leaned alittlo towards him, He bad broken through the ice of reserve, and all was easy now. His hand was among the clouds, and feeble rays were already struggling through the rift it had made. "Yes, Mary." he answered, softly; "and I've heard it said more than once what a good wife Andrew Lee must have." Mrs. Lee turned her face towards her husband. There was light in it, and light in her eyes. But there was some? thing in the expression of the counte? nance that a little puzzled him. "Do yb\i think so ?" she asked quite sobqrly. ?'What a question !" ejaculated Andrew Lee, starting up, aud going round to the side of the table where his wife was sit? ting, "What a question, Mary?" ho re? peated, as he stood before her. ?'Doyou?" It was all she said. "Yes, darling," was his warmly spoken answer, and, he stooped and kissed her. "How strange that you should ask me such a question!" "If you would only tell me so now and then Andrew, it would do me good." And Mrs. Leo arose, and leaning her face against the manly breast of her hus? band, stood and wept silently. What a strong light broke in upon the miud of Andrew Lee! He had ucver given to his faithful wife even the small reward of praise for all the loviug interest-she had manifested daily, until doubt of his love had entered her soul, and made the light around her thick darkness. No wonder that her face was clouded, nor that what he considered moodiness and ill-nature took possession of her spirits. "You are good and true, Mary?my own dear wife. I am proud of you?I love you?and my first desire is for your happiness. Oh, if I could always see your face in sunshine, my home would be the dearest place on earth." "How precious to me nre your words of love and praise, Andrew," said Mrs. Lee, smiling up through her tears into his face. "With them in my ears, my heart can never lie in shadow." How easy had been the work of An? drew Lee. He had swept his hand across the cloudy horizon of his home, and now the bright suushine was stream? ing down, and flooding that home with joy and beauty.?British Workman." The Largest Southern Tree. The "big tree" in Washington, Ga., is probably the oldest and largest in the Southern States. The towu of Wash? ington has always bceu the home of culture and refinement, aud Kobcrt Toombs, Alexander Stephens and other Georgia celebrities have from its bord? ers, passed their names into history. In visiting various points of interest round the place-we walked a mile or so through the beautiful unbroken forest, crossed a valley meadow with its winding stream, and ascended an eminence, the footstool of the forest monarch. Some distance from the big tree is a giant brother, which, towering broad and high above its neighbors, and concealed at a dis? tance by foliage, impresses you on its ap? pearance as being the monarch himself, but when you reach the little knoll, with its open space, on which stands the com? pact mass of bark and timber, and gaze aloft on the huge limbs, themselves larger than surrounding trees, you stand before the largest representative of the vegetable kingdom in the Southern States. The ''big tree," which is on the grounds of Mr. Adam Alexander, a prominent citizen and devoted elder of the Presbyterian Church, is a Tulip bearing Poplar (Liriodendron Tulipi/era) with a height of 155 feet, a diameter of 9 feet, a circumference of about 28 feet, and its lowest branches are 55 feet from the ground. Mr. Alexander told me that ono day, while riding, he and Maj. Anthony Porter drew up their horses sidewise on the opposite sides of the tree and could not, around it, see even the tips of each other's horse's heads or tails. This grove was God's first Presbyte? rian temple in Georgia, for about the year 1790 the South Carolina Presbytery sent delegates, who held a meeting and ordained Rev. William Springer, the first Presbyterian pastor in Georgia, un? der the branches of this tree. Among the officiating members of this open air Presbytery was Rev. John Brown, D. D., the first President of Franklin College, now the University of Georgia. Dr. Brown and his friend, Dr. Lorenzo Taylor, of the Baptist Church, were both eminent for their piety; both were full of animal spirits, and both were great musicians. Dr. Taylor being able to play any instrument from an organ to a Jew's-harp. Being together on one oc? casion, Dr. Brown called for music, whereupon Dr. Taylor seized his fiddle an asked what he would have. "Well," replied Dr. Brown, "I suppose something devotional." "All right," answered Dr. Taylor, striking up a jig, "I can get just as much devotion out of a Scotch reel as any other style of music." in the mouth or July, 1865, the big tree was struck by lightning, shivering its top and blasting its vitality for some distance below, and occasionally a limb, which the blight of decay has reached, comes rattling and crashing down. But still the gnarled and powerful branches stretch their shade over the ground of sacred associations; still men approach the massive trunk with reverence, and g;ize up into the fronded spire whose annointing has not been by cruse of oil but storm and tempest, aud on whose tresses the lightning flung its glittering coronet. Trees spring up and die beside it; companions of its youth have all faded and fallen away. But summer and win? ter, seed time and harvest, it stands grandly and peerlessly on iUcenturied foundation, and will long retain its dis? tinction?the leafy monarch of the Southern forests?New York Observer. To Young Men.?Some old genius gives the following elegant advice to young men who "depend on father" for their support, and take no interest ir. bus? iness, but are regular drones in the hive subsisting on that which is earned by others: "Come, off with your coat, clinch the saw, the plow-handles, the ax, the spade ?anything that will enable you to stir your blood. Fly around and tear your jacket rather than be the recipient ( f the old gentleman's bounty. Sooner than play the dandy at dad's expense, hire yourself out to some potato patch, let yourself out to stop holes, or watch the oars, and when you think yoursell enti? tled to a resting spell, do it on your, owu hook. Get up in the morning' turn around at least twice before breakfast, help the old gentleman, give him now and then a lift in business, learn how to take the lead, and not depend upon forever being led, and you have no idea how the discipline will benefit you. Do this, and, our word for it, you will seem to breathe a new atmosphere, possess a new frame, tread a new destiny, and you may begin to aspire to manhood." The Noise of tue Fixger.?In the current number of the Medical Journal, Dr. Hammond says that when you poke the end of your finger in your ear the roaring noise you hear is the sound of the circulation in your finger. Which is a fact, as any one can demonstrate for himself by first putting his finger in his ears, and then stopping them up with other substance. Try it and think what a wonder of a machine your body is, that eveu the point of your fingers are such busy workshops that they roar like a small Niagara. The roaring is probably more than the noise of the circulation of the blood. It is the voice of all vital processes together?the tearing down and building up processes that are always going forward in every living body, from concaption to death. Exquisite Pleasure.?The most ex? quisite pleasure is derived from Dr. Price's Unique Perfumes. His Alista Bouquet, Sweet Clover, Ladies' Favorite, and other handkerchief odors, are as fragrant and natural as the flowers from which they are made. They are truly delightful.
