We b?Dt to-day o'er? coffined form,
And our toara foll softly down;
Wo looked our last on the aged face,
Wita itu look of peace, ita patient grace,
And hair Uko a ?ihrer crown.
Wo-touched our own. to tue clay-cold, hands,
? From life's long labor at rest; , .
And among the blossoms, white and sweet,
We noted a bunch of golden wheat.
Clasped close to the silent breast.
The blossoms whispered of fadeless bloom,
Of a land whore fall no tears;
Tho rlpo wheat told of toil and oare,
Tho patient waiting, tho trusting prayer,
The garnorod good of the years.
We knew not what work his banda had found,
What rugged placea his feet;
What cross waa his, what blackness of night;
We saw but the pease, the blossoms white,
I ? (And tho bunch of ripened wheat.
As each goes up from the fields of earth,
Boarlng tho treasures of life,
God looks for eomo gathered graiu of good,
From tho harvest that shining stood,
But .waiting the reaper's knife.
Then labor well, that in death you go
Not only with bloat oma sweet
Not bent with doubt and burdened with fears,
And dead, dry busks of the watorcd years
But laden with golden wheat.
SERMON- BY THE REV. HENEY WA ED
BEECHER.-The Bey. Henry Ward
Beecher preached yesterday from the
text: "And He, bearing His oross, went
forth."-John xvii, 19. The reverend
speaker said that ancient artista had rep?
resented Christ bearing the cross as erect,
almost triumphant, but the modera had
reversed thia, and showed Him as down
oast and despondent, sinking under the
heavy load. In other words, ancient art
showed Him as bearing His oross, modern
art as being overborne by it. The an?
cient ideal was tbr 'rue one. Christ de?
spised Hil sufferings, and, iustead of
weakly yielding to them, trampled them
under foot. The history of Christ's life
was an enlarged history of every man.
Men begin low down in the senses, and
by dint of learning, and tears, and trou?
ble, rise above their lower nature. The
asoent is gradual and laborious. No man
can rise and not suffer. The price of
greatness ia humility and pain. It was
not possible even for Christ himself to
work ont the problem of Ii uc??u salva?
tion without suffering. Many people
think that in order to be Christians they
must voluntarily subjeot themselves to
torture, and deny themselves of the
things whioh go to make life pleasant.
This is a mistaken idea. A man should
not suffer outside of his duty. God uses
troubles as whetstones to sharpen men's
consciences with. When tho knifo is
once'sharpened the stone is useless until
it gets dull again. Some well meaning
persons imagine that they are doing
God's will when they cut away all tho
edge. This is the way tho ascetics do.
Manhood is the most precious fruit of all
tronble. There is bot one tree that bears
true manhood; an " it is the cross. There
are many ways of carrying tho cross.
Tho true way is to bear it cheerfully.
Many drag their crosses behind them as
though they were fetters or clogs.
Others mauufaoturo littlo crossos out of
the lightest timber they can get, nnd not
unfreqnently they aro covered with em?
broidery. This is what they call "glori?
fying the cross." The true cross must
be a real cross, and it must be honestly
borne.
A DEATH-BED SERMON.-A gentleman
died last week at his residence, in one of
our up town fashionable streets, leaving
811,000.000. He was a member of the
Presbyterian Church, in excellent stand?
ing, a good husband and father, and a
thrifty citizen. On his death-bed, lin?
gering long, ho suffered with great
agony of mind, and gave continual ex?
pression to his remorse for what bis con?
science told him had been an ill-spent
life. "Obi" he exclaimed, and his
weeping friends and relations gathered
about his bed, "Oh! if I could only livo
my years over again. Oh! if I could
only be spared, for a few years, I would
give all the wealth I have amassed in n
life time. It is a life devoted to money
getting that I regret. It is this which
weighs mo down and makes mo despair
of the life hereafter!" His clergyman
endeavored to soothe him, but he turned
his face to the wall. "You have never
reproved my avaricious spirit," ho said,
to the minister. "You have called it a
wise economy and forethought,' but I
now know that riches have been only a
snare for my poor soul. I would give all
I possess to have hope for my poor soul!''
In this sad state of mind, refusing to bo
consoled, this poor rich man bewailed a
life devoted to the mero acquisition of
riches, All knew him to bo a professiug
Christian and a good man, as tho world
goes; but the terror and remorse of his
death-bod administered a lesson not to
be lightly dismissed from memory. He
would have given all his wealth for a
single hope of Heaven.
[Ne io York Star.
lu an ancient manuscript, said to huvo
been sent by tho Government of Judea
to tho Senate of Rome, is found tho fol?
lowing description of our Saviour:
There lives at this time, in Judea, a
man of singular character, whoso name
is Jesus Christ. The barbarians esteem
him as their prophet, but his followers
adore him as the immediate offspring of
the immortal God. He is endowed with
such unparalleled virtue aa to call back
the dead from their graves and to heal
every kind of disease with a word or a
touch.
His person is tall and ologuotly shaped,
his aspect amiable and reverend. His
hair flown in those beauteous shades
whioh no united colors eau match, fall?
ing in graceful oorla bolow his ears and
parting on the orowu of his head. His
dress is that of the sect and large; his
cheeks without snot save that of a lovely
red; his nose ana month are formed with
exquisite symmetry; his beard is thiok,
ana suitable to the hair of his head,
reaching below his chin and parting in
the middle; his eyes aro bright and se
reue.
MOTHKU. - Lamartine telta a utory that
exquisitely illustrates, a motbor's love.
In some spring freshet, a river wildly
washed ita shore Hod rent away a bough
whereon a bird had built a cottage for
her summer hopes. Down the white and
whirling stream drifted the green branch,
with its wicker-cup of unfledged song; |
and fluttering beside it, as it went, the
mother bird. Unheeding the roaring
river, on she kept, her cries of agony and j
fear pieroing tho pauses of tho storm.
How like the love of the old-fashioned
mother, who followed the child of her
heart all over the world. Swept away
by passion that child might be, it mat?
tered not; bearing away with him the
fragments of tho shattered roof tree,
though ho did; yet that mother was with
him, a Ruth through all his life, and a
Rachel at his death.
Rothschild and tho Arshbishop of
Paris mot at a pnblio dinuer, some time
since, and arrived at the same moment
at the door. Neither wished to enter
first-the Jew showing respeot, tho Ca?
tholic tolerance. Finally, tho Archbishop
cried out: "M. Rothschild, you are tho
son of Moses; I am tho servant of Jesus;
you have tho precedence of ago. The
Old Testament is moro venerable than
the New." And the banker went in first.
Ayer's Cathartic Pills, for all the Pur?
poses ol a Laxative Medicine.
PERHAPS no ono
medicine is BO univer?
sally required by every
body as a cathartic,
nor was over any be?
fore BO universally
adoptod into use, in
every country aud
amone all class?e, as
thiB mild but efficient
?purgativo PILL. Tho
-' obvious re.iHon is, that
it is a more reliable and far more effectual
remedy than any other. Those who have
tried it, know that it cured them; those who
have not, know that it cures their neighbors
and friends, and all know that what it does
onco it does always-that it never fails
through any fault or neglect of its composi?
tion. We have thousands upon thousands of
certificates of their remarkable cures of the
following complaints, but such cures aro
known in every neighborhood, and wo need
not publieh them. Ad iptcd to all ages and
conditions in all climates; containing neither
calomel or any deleterious drug, they may bo
taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar
coatiug preserves them over "fresh and makes
thom pleasant to take, while being purely
vegetable no harm can arise from their ute in
any quantity.
They oporato by their powerful influence on
the internal viscera to purify the blood and
stimulate it into healthy action-remove the
obstructions of thc stomach, bowels, liver and
othor organs of tho body, restoring their irre?
gular action to health, and by correcting,
wherever they exist, euch derangements as are
the first origin of disease.
Minuto directions aro given in thc wrapper
on the box, for tho following complaints,
which theeo PILL8 rapidly cure:
For Dyspepsia or Indigestion. Listlessness,
Languor and Loss of Appetite, they should bo
taken moderately to stimulate tho stomach
and restore its healthy tono and action.
For Liver Complaint and its various symp?
toms. Bilious Headache, Sick Headache, Jaun?
dice or Green Sickness, Bilious Colic and Bi
lious Fevers, they Bhould bo judiciously taken !
for each caso, to correct the diseased action
or remove tho obstructions which cause it.
For Dysenterry or JHarrha-a, but ono mild
doso is generally reqnirod.
For Rheumatism, Gout, Gravel, Palpitation
of the Heart, Pain in the Side, Back and Loins,
they Bhould he continuously taken, as re?
quired, t.> chango the diseased action of the
system. With such chango those complaints
disappear.
For Dropsy and Dropsical Swellings, they
should bo takon in large and frequent doses
to produce tho effect of a drastic purge.
For Suppression a largo dose should bo
taken, as it produces tho desired effect by
sympathy.
As a Dinner Pill, take ono or two Pills to
promote digestion and relievo the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach
and bowels into healthy action, restoros tho
appetite, and invigorates tho system. Hence
it is often advantageous where no serious de?
rangement exists. Ono who feels tolerably
well, often linds that a dose of these Pills
makes him feel decidedly better, from their
cloansing and renovating effect on the digestive
apparatus.

Tho consolidation of Me rico most popular Southern Companies is full of advantages to tho
?olicy-holdcrs of both Companies, its expenditures will be less, and with less relative risk,
lie future dividends will be more certain, and probably greater iu amount, and a bettor re?
served lund created.
NO HIGHT of old policy-)1 'ders will be affected: they will continue to pay the same rate as
before; to hold the samo pc JB as before; to havo the same rights, benefits and privileges as
before, and have equal preoe.it security with greater futuro benefit than before. All renewals
of old policies will bo in narnu of new Company, under special authority from the respectivo
Directors of the old Companies.
A NEW CHARTER was obtained with thu rights of poiicy-holdcrs guaranteed, and we call
special attf ntion to the following decirablo fi atures in said charter:
"Sr.e. 'J. The business ol'the Company .liai! he to make insurance on the lives of individuals
in nil the brunches ol Life Insurance; to grant, purchase or dispose of annuities or re-insure
risks."
"SEO. 4 Tho business of the Co m pan v SHALL bc conducted on the plan of DISTRIRUT
ING TO THE POLICY-HOLDERS THE PROFITS of tho business, as hereinafter provided,
unless by the conseut ot tho u.-sured the policy selected ia non-participating."
"SEC. 15. This Company may issue policies on tho lives of husbands and parents, or others,
for the benefit of wives and families, or oilier beneficiaries interested in their lives-as ances?
tors, descendants, creditors or dependents, and the same shall not bo liable for the debts or
contracts of the assured, except as providvd in tho policies issued."
' Sue. lt?. The Company may issue policies payable IN GOLD : Provided, premiums are paid
in the same."
"Six. Hi. The permanent investment of funds BIIHII bo in mortgages or lieus on UNENCUM?
BERED RF.AL ESTATE WORTH DOUBLE THE AMOUNT LOANED."
We would also call attention to the rights secured in policy as* part of the contract.
Rights of party to non-forfeit uro in ail its policies.
Rights of party to re-inatatement- paid up policy, and surrender value whero "intervention
of armies" or any other cause cuts the insured o tl from home oflice. This feature, omitted in
policies of Northorn Companies, cost the Southern people very heavily in tho lato war, and
should make them seek the only Company that provides against such contingency in future,
j Some Companies now have in their poiicitt. that patties who "take up arms :.gainst" certain
! named States, "or tho United States," render their policy null and void This is making ccr
j tain what was beforn uncertain, and is too great a mingling politics, war and life insurance.
I "Tho PIEDMONT AND ARLINGTON" lias a model charier and model policy, plainly stating
right* of parties and guarding those rights against sacrifice.
lt gives dividends at the end of first year, when all cash is paid, ami of second year, whon
part loan is taken. The all cash plan is unreservedly recommended aa in every way inost satis
I factory.
Wer now confidently appeal lo every one interested in Southern prosperity to look to their
own interests, by sustaining their own instit niions, ami thereby establishing that eolf-confl
dence without which there can he no pertnanicnt prosperity, bear in mind that already over
*10.000,tOO ore annually sent North for Life Insurance, taking so much from our strength, and
thereby giving additional power to our competitors.
Wo offer a solid, reliable Lile Insur anco Com napy, thoroughly Southern, in the hands of men
