This poem was written by William Knox, a countryman oC Burns, like him somewhat dissipated at limes, and, like him, ?lying (in 18*J5) at tho early age of (about) thirty-seven. Sir Walter .Scott and Prof. Wilson thought highly of his poetic genius. Most of his poems were on sacred subjects, and he wrote of them, "It is my sincere wish that, wllile I may have provided :t slight gratification for the admirer of poetry, I may also have done something lo raise tho devotional feelings of the private ( 'hristian : Oh, why should the spirit of mortal lie proud'.' Like ti Bwift-llcoting meteor, a fnst-llying cloud. A Hash of the lightning, a break of the wave, Man passelh from lifo to his rest in the grave. The leaves of tho oak ami Hie willow shall fade. ]5o scattered around, and together In laid ; And the young ami the old, and the low and thc high, Shall moulder todust.uml together shall lie. Tho infant a mother attended and loved: Thc mother thal infant's affection who proved : Tho husband that mother ?md infant who blest Knob, all, arc away to their dwellings of rest. The hand of the king that the sceptre bath borne, The brow of the priest that the mitre hath worn, The eye of the sane and thc heart of thc brave. Are hidden and lost in the depths of thc grave-. The peasant whose lol was to sow and to reap. The herdsman who climhed with his go- up the sloop, The beggar who wandered in search of bis bread, Have faded away like thc grass that wo tread. St) the multitude goes like thc Mown or the weed That withers away to lol others succeed ; So the Ililli ti ttltlu comes-even those wo behold. To repeat every talc that has ofton been lold. Yoi WO are (lie sante our fathers have been : We see thc same sights our fathers have seen : We drink the same stream, wo view tin same sun, And run tho same course our lathers have run. The. thought s we arc thinking our fat hers would think : Prom the death wc nre shrinking our fathers would shrink : To tin; life wc an- clinging they also would cling: Hilt it speeds from us all like a hud mi the wing. They loved hut thc story ive cannot un fold ; They sciimd hut thc henri ol' the haughty is cold : They grieved-but no wail from their slumber will conti! : They joyed- hut thc tongue of their gladness is dumb. They died-aye, they died, am! wo beings that arc now. That walk on the turf that lies on their brow, And make in their dwellings a transient abode. Meet the changes they met on their pil grimage road. Von, hope and despondency, pleasure and pain Arti mingled together in .sunshine ami rain : And the smile and lin- tear, the sung ami the dirge, Still follow each other, like surge upon sui ge.

Sonic ol tho Marvels Wo Havo Wrought in a Hundrod Years. i Hy Permission of tho Ladies' Homo Journal.] Thore were hut 6,300,000 people in America when this century opened. Franco had live times as many peo ple ; Goriuany, ami oven Austria, had four times America's population ; Italy had three timcB as many, and so had great Britain. Even Spain had double our number of people, and little Portugal was almost our rival in number. We have moro pooplo now than any European nation except Russia, which alono leads us. Wo have aa many people ns live in all Groat Bri tain and Franco combined. Wc have one-ball" more people than Germany. We have practically, 76,000,000 peo ple in thc United States, and 10, 000,000 more in our new possessions. There were only live large cities in America in 1800. Philadelphia, with lib,000, was tho largest, the seat of government, and the conter of wealth and culture. Now York was next, .vith iib,000. Baltimore was third, with 20,000; Boston fourth, Willi 26,000, and Charleston, South Carolina, fifth, with 10,000 people. Chicago was unheard of in 1800. The century was three years old be fore thc government even built a fort when' Chicago now stands, and it was not until thirty yours lalor that n city was thought of and incorpo rated. There was no western city. Tho mighty, modern cities of St. Paul, .Minneapolis, Omaha, Denver and K ansas City were unheard of. There was a small trading-post at St. Louis. That was all. Thc Pacillo coast had two or throe missions under Spanish control. All the rest of tho west was given over to Indians and wild beasts. lu w hat arc Illinois, Indiana, Mich igan and Wisconsin now there lived (5,000 pooplo in I SUI), spread, over that whole territory. Thc "Far West'' was then Kentucky, Ohio and Western New York. Beyond the Alleghanics was practically ti wilderness. Now 68,000,000 people live within the era that belonged to our nation in I Sun. Tin' United Slates is larger now than all Europe in point nf area. It has ?1,000,000 square miles -'one-four teenth of the land surface of thc en tiro globe. In 1800 wc had just S25,000 square miles. Wo are the richest nation on the globo. To-day our wealth is esti mated at over ? 100,000,000,000 ; in IS00 it was $2,000,000,000. A man worth $300,000 was then considered abnormally rich ; to-day wi1 have several hundred men who are worth $3,000,000 or more. rnclc Sam spends each year, on his government, $660,000,000, not. including thc extra outlay occa sioned Ly our late war and tho new accession ol' territory. In IS00 bc spent $12,600,000. lit four years ho now spends moro than thc entire wealth ol' tin- nation in IStiO. ll is amazing how people lived in I sun, judged from modern stand points. Half ol' thom dwelt in log huts. Window glass was a luxury even in tho coast towns. Sonic peo ple used oil paper; others had sim ple openings in thc walls, which in winter were closed with plank split from logs. Tlio iron stove was a positive luxury; tho furnace was indu ard of. Creal lire places sup plied boat, bul could not keep these huts comfortable in winter. There was no kerosene nor gas. Holli were unheard of. Tho tallow dip was the standard light, and on frontiers even tallow was scarce. There the torch of tho forest was used. Lamps thin were in thc homes ol' (he very rich, fed with whale or vegetable oils; but they were lew, ami the llame hardly brighter than the candles. For tiffy year- into the century these lights were used, for it was not until 1868 that petroleum was discovered, ami, even in 1801, kerosene was very ex pensive, costing sixty cents a gallon. Thora was no such thing ns a match. Thc Mint and steel ol thc old family musket was tin* means nf kindling a lire ; or ;i live coal was brough) from a neighbor's, some times many miles distant. When thc friction match caine, in I S'J7, people were afraid ol' it. and would not have it in the house. To-day WC in America alone use over 126, 11011,111111,111111 matches each year. Tin- cooking-stove was unknown. The cooking was done in tho lire place in pots and kettles standing on long slender legs well above the coal-. The old 'nick oven was li roi I once a week to almost blazing beal and lilied with appetizing dishes, Table linen was made by the house-wife, and it was beautiful. China mid silverware were lacking. Powter spoon- and steel knives and forks were choice heirlooms and highly prized. 11 and linnie wooden trenchers, platters, bowls.anil noggins Comprised IllOSl ol' the tableware in usen hundred years ago. < >u the Iront iei s meals w ere often eaten off chips freshly cut from thc forest trees. Garments woe spun hy hand, every member of the family doing a part. Tliere were a few cotton-spin ning mills in operation, but the spin ning jenny, tho carding machino and the loom with (lying shuttle were almost unknown ill America. The century was 18 years old before tho first power loom was set up-at Waltban, Mass. A woman could spin from dawn to dark from 40 to Ol) knots of yarn. ! Now, with modem machinery, one operative cnn spin 160,000 knots in the same time. Carpets were a luxury in 1800. There were a few woolen carpets in Philadelphia and New York; a few ingrains, and hero and there a Tur kish rug. Hut llioso wero used for state occasions. The rag carpet was tho glory of thc housewife. A few Axminster carpets wero mado in Philadelphia; but tho century was well begun before ingrains appeared. Up to 1800 there was not a power loom for carpet-making in America. Not a cast-iron plow existed in 1800. The farmer used tho sickle, the scythe and tho Hail. His plow was home-made-of wood covorcd with a thin sheet of iron. Seeds were scattered by hand ; thc hoe was the cultivator. Ci rain was gath ered by hand, threshed on the Hoor during thc winter, and crushed be neath a stone pestle into Hour, or ground in the neighboring Hour mill. The mower, the reaper and thc self-binder were unheard of. To go to New York from Phila delphia meant two days by thc swiftest stage ; to-day it is done in two hours. To r ? from New lang land to Oregon it took Dr. Atkins eight months, even in 1847. To-day ono can go from Xcw York to San Francisco in one hundred and two hours. There was nola mile of railroad in 1800. Thc first line built was the [{altimore and Ohio, in 1830. Il was fourteen miles long. Three years later, when the South faro lina Railway line of I'M) miles was finished, it was the largest railroad in the world. To-day in the United States alone there arc 1 So,000 miles of railroad, or moro than a third of the mileage of thc* entire world. In 1888 lhere were but Ki passenger locomotives in the United Stales; to-day lhere are 10,000. No steamboat existed in the world a hundred years ago. Sailing ves sels crossed the Atlantic ocean and took from two to three months for thc voyage. Bullet-proof pnek ot-boals, propelled bysails, horses and polos, attended toniest of the commerce between river towns. Passage from New Orleans to Louisville cost $1*25. It was not until 1807 that Hebert Kallon built his "Clermont," and thc first steam propelled boat in tho world steamed up the 1 liaison river. The street ear was unknown in 1800. The country was a third over before the first horse car appeared - in New York oily. The trolley car came only twelve years ago. Now wo have 10,OOO miles of trolley roads in America, running 00,000 cars. Thc newspaper had hardly started. There were about ono ' lied and fifty publications of ... winds in the Puked States. About one-tenth of them were newspapers and were issued daily. Not one of them sold more than n thousand copies a day. To-day we have ?'2,000 different periodicals of all k inds. There were IX):', postolliees in 1800. To-day we have 75,000-that is in America alone. Il took a lotter .sixteen days logo from Philadelphia lo Lexington, Kentucky; twenty two days to Nashville, Tennessee. The cheapest letter postage was eight cents, ami to send a letter more than l<HI miles cost a sidling. Three million letters were then sent in a year. At thc present time the post office handles about 80,000,000 pieces of mail in a single day. The telegraph was unheard of, Not until 18 1-1 did .Morse send his first telegram. When the baltic of Waterloo was fought, in 1 85f>, un usual measures of haste were adopted lo get the news lo London, whore it was received three days later. Thc guns of Dewey's fleet were hardly quiet before the result of thc battle was known in New York. To-day we have one million miles of tide graph wire in America, and seventy million messages ure sent over them each year. There aro, 150,000 milef of cable on ocean beds, but none ol this was laid until tho century wai sixty-six years old. This is how the people lived ii Ison. Kvery community was isola ted from every other community New York was larther removed fron Philadelphia than Africa is now. I was New Year's day before liostoi knew what, had happened in Nev York on Christmas Day. Then wore practically no conveniences people of I bose early days kllOV nothing whatever of comforts.

' J. W. Holl, "What Has Bocomu ot Holl?'* Wo aro struck with an articlo which recently appeared in ono of tho mag'? zincs discussing tlioV. subject of nine teenth century oliangetiin theology lill* doi tho title, "What lias Become of lioll ?" Many changes have taken placo of late years in tho character of tho preaching which wo aro accustomed to hear from our pulpits, so that tho question, "What has Docomo of hell ?" is strictly in oidor.' Who of us nowadays over hoar sormous in which tho words "Uro" and "brim stone" occur? Or sonnons liko thoso John tho Baptist preached wlion ho stood upon tho banks of the Jordan and warned people to Ileo from tho wrath to como ? lu recent years so many frills havo boon addod to tho (Jospol in dofor onoo to what may bo termed the spirit of worldliness that our simple forefath ers, if they could como hack to lifo, would never recognizo it as tho (lo.spol which they used to hoar preached in carly days, and which guided thom pcncofully and happily through death into glory. Wc never hoar tho Gospel preached nowadays Uko tho ministers of tho old school used to preach it ami we sometimes lind ourselves wondering if tho slow progress Christianity is making in this ago of tho world, when every thing else runs by electricity, is not duo to this fact. Popularity scorns to bo tho ultimatum at which most of our modern preachers aim. They seem to bo more ambitious to please men than to save mon; more anxious lo Hatter their vani ties than to save their souls. If the kingdoms of this world aro over to be come the kingdoms of Christ Ibero must ho an abandonment of this spirit of lime-serving in religion. Ministers mu: t plant themselves squarely upon tho cross of Christ. They must go back to the methods which the apostles themselves used, and they must show tho magni tude of tho .Saviour's atoning work not only by pointing out tho sacrifice which ho made upon tho cross, but also by portraying the horrors of that abode of evil spirits from whose tortures Ile died to rescue men. Wo aro old-fashioned enough to bo lievc thal "hades" is no substitute for hell in our system of theology and wo lose our patience as quickly in listening to preachers who talk of "bailes" as wc do in listening to preachers who try to preach hell out of existence altogether. Wo would like to believe that no such place as hell existed, but wo cannot get behind what (he good book says on Ibis subject ami WO cannot silence tho voice of that inner register which asserts that just as truly as the sun rises and sots just so truly must they sillier who set ?lt defiance the laws of Cod ins? ribed upon the heart, lt tho doctrino of rewards and penalties bolds mind in tho world of flesh \\ ny should it not hold equally good ill the world of spirit ? We d<i md undertake t<> interpret scripture for others. Theology is not our hobby. Hut we do undertake to interpret scripture for ourselves, and bringing our unprofessional but honest powers of scrutiny lo bear upon the de clarations of tho good book, wc believe that hell exists and we believe thal preachers ought lo so inform their con grega tit ms. Ono reason why our modern pulpit lacks tho force which characterized tho pulpit of Hfty years ago is that preach ers do not put enough lire and brimstone into the sermon which they preach from Sabbath to Sabbath. Instead of bring ing the world up to tho standard of the Cospel they are bringing the Gospel down to (he standard of the wanbi, anti tho outcome of this departure from tho beaten paths of orthodoxy m list eventu ally be Hie overthrow of Christianity unless divine power Intervenes to pre vent this result. Wo aro hopeful enough t . i olieve that the pendulum will soon sw in r back and that our ministers will return to the methods of tho Old School ; bul in the mean time as we listen to the ch lutings of thc Sabbath bells as they lion I on' this morning upon Hie lrant|iiil air and summon us lo tho discourses which await us in tho sanctuaries, wc lind ourselves confronted with the ques tion, "What has become of hell?"-The ( lons! it ul ion.
