An epileptic young woman, whose case is reported in the London Lancet seems to have broken the record for fits.

TEXT: "As his part is that zoeth down to the battle. so shall his part bethattarrieth by the stuff."-I Samuel xxx., 24. It you have never seen an army change quarters you have no idea of the amount of baagage-twenty loads, fifty loads, 100 loads of baggage. David and his army were about to start on a double quick march for the re covery of their captured families from the Amalekites. So they left by the brook Desor their blankets, their knapsa-ks, their bag gage and their carriages. Who shall be detailed to watch this stuff) There are sick soldier., and 'rnde.l soldiers. and aged soldiers who are not able to go on swift military exredition. t-ut who are abl" to do some work, and su theyare detailed to watch the baggage. There is many a soldier who is not strong enough to march thirty miles in a day and then niunge into a ten hours' fight who is able with drawn sword lifted against his shoulder to p:ue up and down as a sentinel to keep off an enemy who might put the torch to the baggage. There are 200 of those crippled and aged wounded soldiers detailed to watch the baggage. Some of them. I suppose. had bandages; across the brow, and so'me of them had their, arms in slings, and some of them walked on, crutches. They were not cowards shirking duty. They had fought in many a fierce battle for their country and their God. They! are now part of the time in hospital and part of the time on garrison duty. They, almost cry because they cannot go with the' other troops to the front. While these senti nels watch the baggage the Lord watches, the sentinels. There is quite a different scene being en-: acted in the distance. The Anal'kites. hav in ravaged an-d ransa cked and robbed whole 'couotries. are celebrating their success in a roaring carousal. Some of them are dancing; on the lawn with wonderful gyratina of heel: and toe, and srme of them are examining the spoils of vietory-the finger rings and. earrings and necklaces. the wristlets. the heaabands. dia:no'1 starred. and the coffers with coronet= an ira -elions and nearls and sapphires and emeralds and all the wolth of plate, and je;els and decanters. and the sil ver and the gold banked up on the ea rth in princely profusion. anl the embroideries. and the riobes, and th" turbni-, and the cloaks of an imnperia! wtarr .

Chzstian woman was seen ;:.:.ing along the edge of a wood every eveniu. and tha neighbors in the country did not understand how a mother with so niany cares and anxic ties should waste so much time as to be idly sauntering out evening by evening. It was found out afterward that she went there to pray for her household. and while there one evening she wrote that beautiful hymn, famous in all ages for cheering Christian hearts: I love to steal awhile away From every cambering care And spend the hours of setting day In humble, grateful prayer. Shall there be no reward for such unpretend ing. yet everlasting service? Clear back in the country there is a boy who wants to go to college and get an edu cation. They call him a bookworm. Wher ever they find him -in the barn or in the house-he is reading a book. "What a pity it is." they say, "that Ed cannot get an edu cation!" His father. work as hard as he will, can no more than support the family by the product of the farm. One night Ed has retired to his room, and there is a family conference about him. The sisters say: "Father, I wish you woul- send Ed to Qollege. If you will, we will work harder than we ever did. and we vill make our old dresses do." The mother says: "Yes; I will get along without any hired help. Although I am not as strong a? Iused to be, I think I can get along without any hired help." The father says: "Well, I think by husking corn nights I can ge along without any assistance." Sugar is banished fromthe table, batter is banished from the plate. That family is put down on rigid-yes, suffering-economy that the boy may go to college. Time passes on. Co:n mencement day has come. Think not that I mention an imaginary case. God knows it happened. Commencement day has come, and the professors walk in on the stage in. their long gowns. The interest of the oc casion is passing on. and after awhile it comes to a climax of intar. ts the valedictorian i. to ho inroduced.

All is peace and harmony about Atlanta now, but I haven't forgbtten when Sherman Was throwing his unfeeling shelly all over the city. Such a panic, such a stampede, such helpleSs terror among women and children I never wit nedsed. I had gotten my wife and little chil dren away, but I had to stay, and the scene was as awful as the picture of death on the pale horse. Everybody and everything that could move i:s moving. Shells are not so terribly destrc'i v, but as Big John said that day, they are the "most perilyzing thing" in tiic world. I met him on Decatur street, making tracks to ward Stono Mountain, carrying his threo hun dred pounds of desh-most of it in front. Big beads tf perspiration were on his forehead and he was carrying his wiz in one hand and an old carpet bag in the other. "Where now, ra friend?" said I. "A.nywhere in this.direction, said he, with a disttes<ing smile. "I am bound tp keep aherAd of 'em, the infernal devils. They don't travel fast, thank the Lord." "Where is your cart and steer?" said I. "sold 'em-sold 'em to a free nigger for two hundred dollars confederate money, a'out enough to keep me in vittles and whisky for a week." "And then what?" said I. "Jine the contcript camp at Decatur " said he, and he moppe:1 the sweat off his head and face with his big ban dana handkerchlaf. Another shell FCng through the air and Big John moved on with alacrity, never even said goodbye, but halloed back. "Pray for me, Bill." The nest week I got him a place in the ordnance department at Macon under General Rowell Cobb and left him sitting on a box full of guns. He placad two boxes close together for a bed rnd said he shonld sleep on his arms. T,e shells kept coming on making their para'olss and singing and sizzing in the ci cnmambient at. I had sor:er gotten used to shelk in old Virginia and so ventured to walk down half a mile on Walton street to see what ha:. b'ecome of an old uncle and his family who lived there. His four boys uere all in the war, bit my uncle and aunt and their only daughter lived there. I found them huddled uip in the ba semen!. for a shell had already torn part of the roof away and they had moved-moved lower down, and were waiting, waiting, he said, to see wbat the Lord or the devil would do. They escaped unharmed. One of their absent hoys was killed and another was trimmed up, hnt that was the common lot. But now every body is happy ex-ept srme-evervbody except the very rich and tho very poor. 'Tha: is why old Augur dident want to do either. Just the oxpression of the people you meet-meet o4 the trains or :)t the depots or the fair groundd or on the etreets or in the churcheS. How much more pleasant it is tha,1 a few months' ago. How happy are the women and children. How cordial the greetings between the north and the scuth-the blue and the gray, The fact is, when our northern brethren come down here and eat our b' )ecued meat and receive our hospitality anhrrook at our beautiful women they are nearly ready to apologizs for every. tlingg they have done to us or said about us, l've been waiting for them to apologize for twen:y-fivo years, but they say they can't d' it ennestcntly until they begin to pension our soldiers and our widows and orphans. I believe they will pass a pension law for our soldierS bont the time they are all dead, for it is a fact that tnpensioned soldiera do die. "Time cuts down all Both great and smali, Except a pensioned soldier." An insurance man told me that a man who was drawing a pension could get his life in sured for half price. It is enrious how short sighted are the wisest and the greatst men. Calh"un and Davis and Stevens and Henry Clay andl John Randolph all said that no races of people could ever live together in peace unht as one wa<in subjectiomn and tunder the civil dominion of ihe other. That has proved a mistake. We r living tog'ethner now on terms of civil equal itv and getring along fair] y well. Giddings ad Phillips and all the abolition leaders said that .inst ars soon as a war bro'ke out the negroes w 'uld rise up and kill and burn and destroy alt over the~stuth. They did nothing of the kind. Nathanidl Hawthorne said: "I am for he war, hut I don't understand what we are figtnu about or what good results cart cme from it. I reioice that the old union is sanahed. We rnever were one people an-l never will b.. ]f we pinimmel the south ever so hrard ther will love us none the better." flut t h uon is not sminshed.

It has heretofore been the practice of collectors of gutta-percha to cut down the trees to get at the gum. It has been discovered that plucking the leaves and extracting the gum from them is not only more profitable as to immediate results, but does away with the danger of exterminating the plant. The gum obtained from the leaves ii purer, easier to manage and more abundant than that gathered by cut ting the tree. It has been found that two pluckings of the leaves rield s: much gum as a tree of twenty live years' growth. Some concern bn been expressed as to the possible fail ure of the supply, on account of the destruction of these forests, but thi new discovery will not only make tbE orop easier to gather, but will increase the supply, bring down the price an' permit of a much wider range of u.es than heretcfore.-New York Ledger.
