&/L I S OB LLANY. How to Make your Pastor Dishonest BY BKV. WM. M'KEE. lu giving tho ohargo to tho Shiloh Bap tist Church, iu Ciuoinuati, at a recent instal lation service, tho Kev. F. M. Ellis said : " You will niako your ministor dishonest if you don't support kiln." I Chu roh os want good ministers. They do siro mon of learning talont influence, piety. This is well. But they oftc^ treat their proaoher ns if ho could live on grace and air. They pay hun tho soantiost possible salary, and, as if they wcro not humiliation enough, they denominate this pittanco a gift,^vnd tho pastor a beggar. Tho first evil growing out of this praotico ls that it cripples tho eucrgics of thc preach er. Either ho and his family must consume every cent of 3\is salary to supply their phys ical wants, and ho thereby bo deprived of thc books and periodicals whioh ho so greatly needs, and without which he cnn not long sat isfy tho demands of his congregation, or ho must spend a part of his timo in some bush ness other than his profession, in order to procure his living ; and this saps his timo and energies to such a degree that ho is not able to do tho work his Master and his congrega tion require. Herc is tho tomptation to bo Come lishoncst. Wanting bread ho buys on credit, hoping his flock will pay him his just dues, and he will soon bo able to satisfy his oreditors. But they do not pay. So he bor rows money. His congregation ho thinks will surely pay him toward tho close of thc year. But the year closes; closes alas 1 too often with one or two hundred dollars.of his salary unpaid ! and, what is worse, it never will bc paid ! Now, what will ho do ? Ho is in debt for flour, in debt for rent, in debt for clothing. Ho begs his creditors to givo him time-bc will pay nil soou as bc can. Some grant it; others will not. So, if bc hove credit, he borrows nguiu and again. But borrowing from ono to pay another docs not reliovo him from debt. Still ho hopes his congregation, or circuit will como to his help. But no ; they leave him to bc pinched by tho bond of want; to'bc tormented by repeated and ur gent duns for money; to make this, that, tho other effort to extricate himself from thc dil omma ; to become a hissing and by-word in tho commuty, and a disgrace to them, becauso ho can not live on half a salary. What won dor if thc pastors conscience should become lax on thc question of paying debts, when so fow of his flock seem to mako conscience of paying him ? What woudcr if after a long experience of this kind of perplexity, ho should become careless in his business habits, going in debt wherever hq can get credit, without considering whence shall bc obtained tho money to cancel tho obligations? If now ho becomes actually dishonest, as somo perhaps have, though I thiuk tho num ber remarkably few, who arc chiefly to blame ? Tho congregation. Had they paid him as thoy did their tailor, blacksmith, butcher, and grocer, he would have paid his debts with thc most scrupulous exactness ; or, perhaps he ncvor would havo made any debts. And thus it is literally true that a church may make a pastor dishonest, and in doing so, they incur no small share of thc guilt themselves. The laborer is worthy of tho biro. If bc be a hod carrier, it is dishonest to withhold it; if he a vessel of thc Lord engaged in currying thc broad of life to thc souls of mon, it is thc most arrant hypoorisy to cheat him out of his just duos.-Religious Telescope. GEMS OE THOUGHT.-Br. Johnson used to say, *\ Ho who waits to do a great deal of good at once, will never do any." When tho heart is pure, there is hardly anything which eau mislead thc understand ing iu matters of immediate personal con oernment. Weigh every step that you arc about to tako. whoo over passions become involved. How often do things assume n different as pect when they arc fairly considered. . How often wo sigh for opportunities of do ing good, whilst wo neglect tho offorings o* Providence in littlo things, which would fre quently load to thoacoomplimcnts of most im* portant usefulness. It is much easier to think right without do ing right, than to do right without thinking right. Just thoughts moy, and often do, tail of producing just deeds; but just docds aro suro to bogot just thoughts. Wo should bc careful to practice, and treat tho humblest menial with courtesy ns delicate as wo would show tho children of offlucncc and honor. So shall wo transfuse in them a corresponding refinement, which will tend ovontually, perhaps, to moko thom purer in iu morals and moro elevated in mind. With most of us, idleness is tho parent not morely of uneasiness, but withal of fretful ness, malevolence and tho wholo host of evil passions. Tho phroso " aching void," may bo rcdiculous to thoso who critioiso grammati cally, but is truo to those who fool humanly. To supply this void is an objoot, and morcovor a certain effect, of regular and sustained and judicious method of solt-instruotion. Tho us?d key is bright. If tho stool bo wrought np and refined to high tompor, tho cloudiness of the vapor will perish from it almost ot the instant that it is breathed upon it. A MAINE paper relates that a country member of tho Legislature, scoing a quantity of bozos in tho rotunda of thc Stato House at Augusta to bo used in sending away doou ^?.onts, naked an old stager what thoy wero. "SnOP boxos, I presumo.'' "What!" said thevfcdwnbcr from Cranbury Contre, "we don't 4?w sltycs, do we ?" m J.1J.1....L'.I-J. -L. .J-'... 1 .LL_Ljl". [From Hall's Juorual of Hoalth.] What 8lmll we Drink? COLD WATBlt. Cold water, swallowed duriug tho progross of digestion, instantly arrests it, and tho pro cess is not resumed, until tho water has been thoro long enough to bo warmed from the ? temperature at which it was drank, to that of tho stomach j or from somo forty dogreos to a hundred j to accomplish this tho boat must bo abstracted from tho general systom> dulling it. Strong, robust persons may not feel this, but if n man iu fooblo hoalth drink cold water at a meal, at all largely, bo rises from tho table chilly, aud soon has foyer, whilo tho stomach being kept thu! muoh longor at work in digesting tho food, iosos its rigor, the digestion is^imperfect, and tho food booomcs I impuro, thus lying nt tho foundation of- dis. case Tho inevitable iufcrouce from these facts is, that oold water is iujurious to hoalth, if taken at moals. Injurious to tho most ro bust, if taken largely, and to poisons iu fccblo health, if tnkon at all, beyond a few swallows at a meal I tboroforc sot it down, ns a clearly estab lished fact, that a glass or moro of cold water, drank habitually nt moals, or soou utter, is ? pornicious praotico, ovon to tho most hcal thyr Injury is dono in another manner ; wator, or any other fluid, dilutes thc gastrio juico? and thus weakens its powor to dissolvo tho food. ' Tho amount of gastrio juioc is not les soned, but its power is diminished by its dilution. Tho finger will bc scalded by dtp ping it into a vessel of boiling water ; ' but if an equal amount of cold water is added, it may bo thrust in with impunity, although there is as much heat in tho mass aa beforo; but it is more diffused. Any kind of fluid taken largely at a nioal, or soon after, is positively injurious to holtb. ? A standing item of ndvico to my patients is-take but half a glass of water at a singlo meal, or n singlo cup of wonk coffee or tea, ucYor increasing tho strength or quantity, and drink nothing withiu an hour after eating. If cold drinks aro injurious at mortis, cold food ?8for the same reason also injurious ; thus it is that some of tho most tcrriblo forms of disease arc brought on by persistence in eat ing cold food, exclusively, especially in tho winter time. WARM DKINKS. If cold fluids aro injurious nt meals, wc nat urally conoludo that warm fluids, in modera tion, aro beneficial, and rightly so. It then follows, that, if wc drink anything at meals, it should be first warmed. Wo may safely udmit, that tho universal custom of a country is founded on common sense, being tho teaching of exp?rience* Common sense and tho cxporinco of tho civ ilized world is, that a oup of good hot coffee for breakfast, or a cup of good bot tea for supper, is "wholesome." . The Last of tho Red Man. Tho " Columbia Phoenix " mentions that Johu Harris, Chief of thc Catawba Indians, was before tho Legislature Saturday last, ex horting with his crudo eloquence an appro priation for thc romoval of his diminished tribe to thc far west, where ouco more beyond thc reach of thc white man, they could again hunt thc dcor and tho buffalo, and again chnnt their war songs and glory in tho deeds of their ancestors. Tho Catawba remnant al luded to by us, is now a mere handful of mon, huddled together on tho " Indian Land " bordering tho Catawba river in York anc Lancaster Districts, surrounded by' civiliza tion, and humiliated by their own insignifi canco. Such is tho fato of tho Red Man. Onco " Monarch of all ho surveyed," ho now has scarcely a burjal pince ; has been cheated and is now despisod; has beon defoatod, and is now little better than a slavo; has been driven from his hunting grounds, and is now traveling farthor and farther towards the dis tant Pucific. .Thus passes away glory. Thi; race could once boast of a King Philip, of i Red Jacket, of a 'Black Hawk, of an Osceola warriors renowned in war and wiso in penco obioftains whose glory raised to tho highes summit tho tottering causes which thoy rep resented, and whoso deaths signaled thc Ie struction of their braves. Aa ono contom plates tho sad fato of tho Indian, wo canno refrain from uttoring nn ejaculation of sorrov for thc misfortunes of gallant but misguide! men, whoso barbarity is forgotten when rc viowed with tboir savngo nobility, and whos actions havo been sung in proso and verse equally worthy to adorn tho most chivalrou pnges of history, or to furnish tho poet wit an appropriate theme, wild, romantio, and ir tcrcsting. ADVANTAGE OP LEARNING A TRADK. Thoadvioc of Benjamin Franklin, to givooi cry ohild a trado by wbioh ho cnn cam a li\ ing, if necessary, oomosof an experience ok or than his. lu some oountrics this has bee thc law j in othors a common custom. S Paul, though educated at tho law at tho fo< of Gamaliel, also acquired the ii iportnnt Or ontal handioraftof a tent makor, by wbioh li was ablo to.earn his living while prosocutin his mission. It is a good and wiso thing I do. You may bo ablo to send your ohildrc fortunes; but "nobes toko to thomsolv wings."

AN* editor says women livo longer tin men. Married ones do who sit up nigh waiting tho return of ft drunken husband. ?rttt??JJ ?M. iwniiiiiiuiijiiiiiiiiiijLtms?U????tm Tho Culture of Fish. Tho commissioners appointed by Massachu setts to examino into the condition of tho fisheries iu tho State and to recommend such ! methods of improvement ns might occur to thom from their investigations, hmo made their report to tho L?gislature An interest ing portion of tho document is dovotcd to tho consideration of tho subject of trout culture On this subject tho commissioners say of far mers and fishormon : " Certainly they would not hesitate to bogiu this industry did they know tho little labor neoded and tho consid erable food and profit to bo derived. They should know that the skim milk of ono good cow turned into ourd will plentifully feed 500 pounds of trout, and with what they them selves pick up will cause them to grow rapid? ly. Now will it feed 500 pounds of pork ? The trout aro worth nt lonst 8250 ; tho pork not moro than $80. A bit of curd tho size of tho fingor, rubbed and washed io a bowl of water, is enough food for 10,000 young trout fry, just after absorption of tho sac Cape Cod is ospcoially adapted to tho culturo of tho finest trout; for it is uot tho celebrated Marsh apeo river alono whioh isoapablopf produciug thom. Every tiny creek or rill that omptics into salt wator is available for their culturo." Ia regard to salmon tho experiments of last year wero not ns successful as was hoped. Tho spawn proourcd did not nil baten, and many of the young fish died. Future pros pects aro mure promising. Tho views of thc commissioners concerning pickerel aro so tersely put that wo rpaoto them ontiro : u Having spoken of several spcoies worthy of cultivation, it may bo fitting to speak of two that should bo oultivated only by throwing them on land and cutting their heads off. These aro tho mud and pond pickerels (E<ox ornatus nnd reliculafns.) Moro abominable animals there aro not. And tho bcBt proof that our people cravo fish is thatthoy are wil ling to cat pickerel. To raiso other fishes near them is like trying to raise poultry under a hawk's nest. They ponotrato oven to cold trout brooks, and devour tho young of every species ?bat comes in their way; so that thoy utterly depopulate the waters and couvert thousands of tho finest fishos into their own soft, muddy-tasting flesh. If tho State would offer a premium of fivo dollars a cartload for thom it would bo money well spent. Instead of this these ogres aro actually protected by laws, and may bo takeu only iu certain ways and at certain times, under penalty of one dollar for each offence Yet there is not a fifty cent pickerel that bas not swallowed ton dollars' worth of better fish himself." Tho commissioners urgo with groat force that food fishes ought to bo protected as prop erty. Tho uooded legislation is thus pre scribed : 1. Croat ponds and minor tidal streams shall be controlled by their riparian proprio tors, so far as couccrus tho taking of certain fishes. 2. Tho commissioners of inland fisheries shall, uniter certain conditions, have power to set apart water for breeding fish, and to pro hibit fishing therein for stated timcjor at sta ted seasons. 8. Tho putting of drngs and dyestuffs oi deleterious products of manufactures inte ponds and streams shall bo prohibited. 4. Thoro shall bo a certain and uniform number of days ia each week of tho fishing season whoo iishing ?hall bc prohibited. ADVERTISING: TESTED.-AD Atlanta paper in tho oourso of an article on tho value ol advertising to business men, says : A merchant in Macon, who had been sue cossful for years, conoluded at thc beginning of ouo year that ho would try the virtue o advertising. That year ho spent eightcer hundred with the printers, and hi.i own tedi mony is, that he did threo times tho nmoun of business that he ever did beforo in th? samo longth of time Ile still keeps his nairn and business prominent in tho papers, nm finds his profits steadily increasing. Otbc merchants in Macon, witnessing thc succ?s of this house, followed its oxample, and nov the Macon papers aro among thc best patron jzod in tho State, and thc business men c that city are among the most substantial ii the South. We happen to be nblc to testify to th truth of this statement in every particular. For tho size of the place, there is moro ac vortising dono in Mnoon than in any ethe city of tho South, and heneo h?r extraordin?r prosperity since tho olose of tho war. Th name of nearly every merchant and basinet man in the city is to bo found in her elad papers; not occasionally and condensed int tho smallest possiblo space, as if tho partie wcro afraid somebody would find out whet they aro, but regularly, systematically, an prominently, and in many instances with a apparont disregard of cost. They know whi thoy aro at, though, and go into tho papoi and stay thoro beoauso it pays. The rosu is practically demonstrated in the rapid growl of business and accumulation of fortunes. [&av.

CHRISTIAN STANDARDS.-A christian pound weighs sixtocu ouuecs, and is at least oyenly balaneod. A christian yard is thirty-six inobos and is not shortened by tho handling of a stick. A christian ton is two thousand pounds, ?nd is not roughly judged but conscientiously woighed. A christian bushel contains two hundred and thirty-one cubit inches and is filled brimful. A christian day's work is ten hours and is diligently and faithfully engaged in thc em ployer's business.

Let our prayers and thanksgivings, with theirs, ascend to His throne ou thc samo day, Sunday." CHEAP RESTAURANTS.-It is asserted that there is uot another city in tho United States where tho same amount and, variety of good food can bc obtained for so little money as iu San Francisco. Io ono - restaurant of that city over one thousand persons take their meals daily, at an expense of ten couts each, and with wino and dessert for twenty-five cents Green turtle steak, bread and butter and cel ory aro mentioned as prominent articles in thc bill of faro, which is served up in good style, with clean napkins and tablecloths. A CORRESPONDENT writes thus about tho United States Senate: "It is only a few weeks since one of thc members was expelled for tho fourth time from a temperance society ; another has recently been shown to bc deep in half a dozen land swindles. I could name a dozen who have become millionaires under very suspicious circumstances, and now comes another corruption smelling quite as strong as any of its predecessors." THE Siamese Twins aro in Liverpool. They will mako a tour of the United Kingdom ns n show before going to Paris to bo cut apart. It will bo a dear cut to them, wc opine.

IT was recently stated in open court that Commodore Vanderbilt once made 810,000, 000 by ono day's operations-thc largest sum probably over made in thc same time by n single individual. .
