A Lajtgttaxe for Dogs.
It must also be b^rae ia min 1 that
dogs are aal always hive beaa bred for
special purposes, such as pointing, re
trieving, running, watching, and biting,
\>ut nor. for general intelligence. Mr.
Walton, who calls attention to this fact,
suggests that it would be intefcsting as

ly for- intellectual power and disregard

I$i order to carry out this plan to, per

some system of signs by which dogs
would be able to communicate their

such a language is not impossible is evi
dent from what has been already

which they have learned to understand

opinion was expressed two centuries ago

c adduces some startling facts in support
of it. The value of such a language as a
means of enlarging the animal's sphere

of givja^ a aigher development jto its in

An Apple Orcliarrt Twenty Miles Long?.
In the wild district of Hawaii, be
tween Haa.i and Haiku, during July and
August the most beautiful and largest
apple orchards in the world can be seea.
The Wilderness of Koolan, aa too dis
trict is called, contains a forest of native
wild apple trees, countless in number,
stretching from the sea far up the mount
ain sides. The tress vary from forty to
tifty feet in height, and in the harvest
season, from July to September, are
loaded down with fruit, some white, but
mostly red.
A person standing in the midst of this
orchard can look around him for miles
up the mountain and toward the road,
and the only thing -:n- view will be one
vast grove of apple trees literally red
with ripe aud ripening fruit, the branches
of the trees bending to the ground with
the bounteous harvest. The crop of thiq
extensive apple orchard which nature
planted in the solitary waste would fill
a fleet of ten steamers.
The orchard stretches over a country
from five to ten miles w>de by twenty
miles long, and many of the larger trees
bear at least fifty barrels apiece. The
fruit is delicious for table use, aud will
appease both thirst and hunger, but as
yet no one will take the trouble to make
any commercial use of the apples. VThea
ripe they will not keep more than a
week, but they make excellent jelly and
jam, and simply for the lack of a little
American enterprise millions of apples
arc permitted annually to fall to the
ground and rot. ? Chicago Tribune.

Tcere is no war between religion and busi

trary religion accelerates business, sharpens

more velocity into the wheels of hard work.
It gives better balancing to the judgment,

The industrial claissea arr- divided into

miners. Manufacturers, such as those who
turn corn into food, andfcrool and flax into

of the transfer and exchange ?f all that
which is produced and manufactured. A
business man may belong to any one or all
of these classes, and not one is independent

blamed the Zulus for their barbarism. Tho
one most to blame was the liarness maker
who fashioned that strap of the stirrup out

found to have been afterward. If the strap
had held, the prince imperial would probably

We are under the impression that the moil
and tug of business life are a prison into
which a man is thrust, or that it is an un

to contend. I shall show you that business ?
life was intended of God for grand and glori
ous education and discipline, and if I shall be
helped to say what I want to say,. I shall rub
some of the wrinkles of care "oat of your
brow and unstrap some of the burdens from
your back. I am not talking to an abstrac

In my first parish at Belleville, New Jer
sey, ten miles from New York, a large por

York merchants. Then I went to Syracuse,

then I went to Philadelphia and lived loug
among the merchants of that city, than
whom there are no better men on earth, and
for more than twenty-two years I have
stood in this presence, Sabbath by Sabbath,
preaching to audiences, the majority of
w&om are business men and business women.
It is not an abstraction to which 1 spaak, but
a reality with which I am well acquainted. 4
In the first place, 1 remark that business
life was intended as a school of energy.
God gives us a certain amount of raw ma
terial out of which we are to liew our char
acter. Oar faculties are to be riset, rounded
and sharpened up. Our young folks having
graduated from school or college, need a
higher education, that which the rasping
and collision of everyday life alone can ef
fect. Energy is wrought -out only in a fire.
After a roan has been in business activity
ten, twenty, thirty yearn, his energy is not
to be measured by weights or plummets or
ladders. There is no height it cannot scale,
and there is no depth it cannot fathom, aud
there is no obstacle it canuot thrash*

Now, my brother, why did God put you in
that school of energy? Was it merely that
you might he a yardstick to measure cloth
or a steelyard to weigh flour"' Was it merely
that you might be better qualified to chaffer
and higgle? No. God place! you it) that
school of energy that you might be devel
oped for Christian work. If the undeveloped
talents in the Christian churc'oes of to-day
were brought out and thoroughly harnessed,
I believe the whole world would be converted
to God in a short time. There are so many
deep streams that are turning no mill wheels
and that are harnessed to no factory bands.
Now God demands the best lamb out of every

days put it forth to the advantage oi Christ's
kingdom and the bringing of men to the
Lord. Dr. Duff, in South Wales, saw a man
who had inherited agr^at fortune. The man
said to him: "I had t;> be very busy for
many years of ray Dfe getting my livelihood.
Alter awhile my fortune canoe to-rtie, and
there has been no necessity that I toil since.
There came a time when I said to'-.myself,

and I have been more industrious in com

shame if I couldn't toil as hartl for the IjO r 1
as I had toiled for myself, and all the pro

same energy put forth for the world could
be put forth for God! Oh. if a thousand
men in these great cities wno have achieved
a fortune could see it their duty to do all
business for Christ and the alleviation of the
world's suffering.
Again, 1 remark, that business life is a
schooi of patience. In your e /eryday life
how many things to annoy and t> disqabt!
Bargains will rub. Corn nercial men wiH
sometimes fail to meet their engagements.
Cash book and money draper will sometimes
quarrel. Goods ocdered for a sp^ia! emer
gency will come t<jr> late or be damaged in
the transportation^ Peopio iBtjfnJiag no
harm will go shopping w ithout any iutentiou
of purchase, overturning great stocks of
2;oods and insisting that^rou brpak the doz-?n.

that amid the turmoil an i anxiety and ex
asperation of everyday life you might h?ar
the voice of God sayings "In pitience
possess your souL Let patience have her
perfect work."
1 remark again that busiuess life i3 a school
of useinl kno wledge. Merchants do not read
many books and do not study lexicon-. They
do not dive into profounds of learning, end
yet nearly all through their occupations com*
to understand questions of finance and poli
tics and geography and jurisprudence and
ethics. Business is severe schoolmistress,
if pupils wifl not learn, she strikes them over
the head and the heart with severe losses.
You nut $50"0 into an enterprise. I* is all
^one. You say, "That is a dead losi"7 Oh,
no. Yoa are paying the schooling. That
was only tuition, very large tuition? I told
you it was a severe - "loohnistress ? but -it{
was worth it. Yon le;.i red things under that
process yon wouil _iot have kPsrr1> ~y
Vi Traduaift
topical production: manufacturers of
American goods com? to understand the
tariff on imported articles; publishers of
l*x>ks must come to uaderstana the new law
of copyright; owners of ships must come to:
know winds and shoals an J navigation; and
every bale of cotton, anil every raisin cast
and every tea box, and every ofaster of
bananas is so much literature for a business
man. Now, my brother, what are yon go
ing to do with the intelligence? Do yon sup^
?K?se God put you in ths school of iuforma- :
t;un merely that you might bo sharper- iu a
trade. that you might l?e more successful an
a worldling? Oh, no; it was that tou might
take that useful information and use it for
Jt-sus Christ.
C^sji it l?e that you have bean dealing with
foreign lands and never had the misslonwry
spirit, wishing Che salvation of foreign peo
ple? Can it be that you have beoome ac
juaint?d with all the outrages inflfofryj Jn
business life, and that you have never triad
to bring to t>ear that Gospel which is to ax
cripate all evil anl correct all wrongs and
illumine all <larkn; fts and lift up all wretch
edness and save men for this world and the;
world to come? Can it be that understand
ing all the intricacies of business you know
nothing about those things which will l?0K_.
toug alter all bills of exchange and' consign
ments and invoices aud rent rolls stall have
(.'rumpled up and been consumed in the fires
of. the last great day? Can it be that a man
wi\l be wise for time and a fool for eternity?
\ remark* also, that business life is a
-iohool forihtegrity. No man knows what
he will do when ho is tempted. There are
thousands of men who have kept their in
tegrity merely because they never have been
tested A man was elected treasurer of the
State of Maine some years ago. He was dis
tinguished for his honesty, usefulness and
upngutness, dud berore oue year bad passed
he had taken of the public funds for his own
private us<v an ! was hurled out of office in
disgrace. Distinguished for virtue before.
Distinguished for crime after. You can call
over the names of men just like that, in
whose honesty you had complete confidence,
but placed in certain crises of temptation
they went overboard.
Never so many temptations to scoundrel
ism as now. Not a law on the statute book
but has some back door through which a
miscreant can escape. Ah! how many de
ceptions in the fabric of goods; so much
plundering in commercial lite, that if a man
talk about living a life of complete com
mercial accuracy there are those who
isoribe it to greenness and lack ol
.sot. More t?eed of honesty now than ever
i>efore ? tried., honesty, complete honesty,
more than in those times when business was
a plain affair, aud woolens were woolens
?ind silks were silks aud tnen were men.
How many men do you suppose there are
in commercial life who could say truthfully,
"in all the sales I have ever made I have
u ever overstated the value of goods; in all
the sales I have ever made I hage never
covered up au impor/eciiou in the fabric; of
all the thousands of dcHars I have ever
made I have not taken one dishonest Its
thing." There are men, however, who can
-ay it? hundreds who can say it, thousands
who can say vc. They- are more honest than
w hen they sold tneLr first tierce of rice, or
;!i?-ir first firkin of butter, because
their honesty and integrity have bean
teste .1, tried and " carrie .1 out triumph
ant But they remember a time when
they could have robbed a part
ner, or absconded with the funds
of a bank, or sprung a snap
judgment, or made a false 08
sigument, or borrowed illimitahly
without any effort at payment, or got a man
mto a sharp cornea* and fleeced him. But
tuey never took one step on that pathway
of hell-ftre. They can say their prayers
without hearing the clink of dishonest dol
lars. They can read their Bible without
flunking of the time w hen with a lie on their
soul in the eustoai house they kissed the
Book. They can think of death and the
judgment that ci>mcs after it wijfeout any
flinching? that day when all charlatans and
cheats and jockeys and frauds shall be
doubly c'amipi. It does not make their
knees knock Ipgether and it does not make
their teeth chatter to read "as the partridge
*itteth on and hatcheth them not, so
fie that gett^t'u riches, and not by right,
shall leave them iu the midst of his days
and at his end shall be a fool."
Ob. what a school of integrity business life
is! If you have ever been tempted to let
vour integrity cringe beiore present advan
tage; if \ou nave ever wakened up in some
embarrassment and said: "Now "I'll step a
ittle a>ide from ti ri^ht <+at'a aud no one
will know it, and I'll corns a'l rijht again,
i t is only once.,? Oh, that only ouce has
feined tens of thousands of men for this life
and blasted their souls for eternity. Ibis a
tremendous school, "business life ? a school of
integrity. A merchant in Liverpool got a
live jK3und Bank of England note, and hold
.ng it up toward the: light he saw some inter
im-rations in what se ined red ink.
He finally deciphered the letters, and found
out that thj writing had been made by a
slave in Al?ier.vsaying in $u?> stance, '"Who
ever getsJthis bank note will pleas 3 to inform
iny brot^r, John Dean, living near Carlisle;
that 1 aui a slave of the bsv of Algiers."
The merchant sent wor.1, employe! Govern- ~
ment officers an I found who this mail wa,i
spoken of in this bank bill. After awhile
' the man was rescued, who for eleven year*
hail been a slave of the bey of Algiers. Ho
was immediately emrtucioated, but was so
worn out by hardship and exposare h* soon
after died. Oh, if sora<; of the bank bills
that come through your hands could tell all
the scenes through w,iich they have passed,
it woald be a tragedy eclipsing any drama
of Shakespeare, mightier than King Lear or
Macbeth.
As 1 go on in this subject, \ am impressed
with the importance of our having more
i sympathy with business men. Is it not a
] shame that we in our pulpits do not of toner
| preach about their struggles, their trials and
their ter.ipta! ions? Men who toil with the
hand are not apt to'bo very sympathetic with
those who toil wyth the brain. The farmers
who raise the oora, and the oats, and the
wheat sometimes are tempted to think that
?rain merchants have an easy time, and
j </et their profits without giving any equiv*
lent. I'l l to and Aristotle were so opposed
to merchandise that tb?y declared commerce
to be the curse of the nations, and they ad
\ ised tfcat cities bj built at least ten mile*
from the seaconst.
Rut you and I know that there are no
more industrious or high winded men than
those who uiove in the world of traffic,
fcorne oi them carrying burdens heavier
than hods of brick. and are exoosai to
sharper things than tue east wind, and climb
mountaius higher than the Alps or Hima
layas and if they art* faithful Christ will
at last say to the uj : "Well done, good and
faithful servant; thou hast been faithful
over a few things, I will make thee ruler
over many th.ngs. Enter thou into the joy
of thy Lord."
AVetaik about tin martyrs of tho Pied*
inont valley, and the martyrs among the
Scotch high'and-, an 1 the martyrs at Ox
ford. There was just as certainly martyrs
of Wall street aud i>t;it? street, martyrs of
Fulton street and Broadway, martyrs of
Atlantic street, and Chestnut street", going
through hotter firns, or having their necks
und^r sharper arxos. Then it behooves as to
lwuish all tretfulness from our lives if this
subject be true. We lCo\ liack to theufetfoe
when we were at sclool, and we remember
the rod, and we remember the hard tasks,
and we complained grievously, but now we
see it was for the best O Business life is a
school, ani the t:mks are hard, and the c'nas

do. not complain. The hotter the Gro the
bitter the refining.

WHITTIER'S BIRTHDAY. .
The Aged Poet Spends ltf^uiet ly With
a Friend at Newburyptort, Mas*.
JORN (HIKES LEAK WHITTIKR.
John "Greenleaf Whittier, the poet,
celebrated his eighty-fourth birthday Id
Ne^buryport, Mass., at the home of Harriet
Livermore, the schoolmistress of "Snow
Bound." It is now occupied by Mr. arid
Mrs. Joseph Cortland, with whom he has
spent neany three-fourths of the post year,
in Nbw bury port and at the mountains.
Mr. Whittier is an early riser, and that
morning he came down to breakfast at tho
regular time, declaring he felt better than
usual, although he was a little afraid that ha
might not be able to stand the fatijnie of the
occasion. With him for the day were
his two nieces from Portland, Me., Mrs.
Berry and Mrs. 8. T. Pickard, who was
accompanied by her husband, tha editor of
the Portland Transcript.
As the venerable poet dread? anything in
"the nature of ceremony earnest efforts were
made to prevent any public receptions, but
a number of relatives and intimate friends
jcalled, and those be seemed very glad
to see. He also received the Hav
erhill Whittier Club, as he - could
not find it in his heart to refuse,
ior everything relating to the home of his
boyhood touches him deeply, and the fathers^
and mothers of some of this club were bOr
old school fellows and playmates.
There was one unusually interesting feat
ure in the morning's reception, and that
was the reunion $f old schoolmatea With
the party which left Haverhill in a special
car at S:15 a. m. came three gray
headed persons who had boeti to school
with Mr. Whittier in the pictur
esque old school-house at Blast Haverhill.
These were James H. Carletou, of Haver
hill; Mrs. Warren Ordways, nee Caroline
Foote, of Bradford, and Thomas B. Gar
land, of Dover, N. H. Tho club brought an
extremely pretty floral gift.
A unique souvenir was that sent by the
teachers and pupils of the public schools in
NWest Point, Calaveras County, CaL
]\ From the ladies of Winchester, Va., came
a paper cutter made of wood from Fort Lou
don. which was built in that place by George
Washington in 17o5.
1 Floral gifts were everywhere. All day
long messages of congratulation were re
ceived. i
i The eighty-fourth birthday of the poet
was very generally observed at Amesbury,\
Mass. Exercises were held in the public
schools, and in' the evenine the Wnittiar
Chautauqua Circle and the Methodist Church
held entertainments in honor of the day.
Mr. Whittier has resided in esbury most
of the time since 1836.
