"Lord, I Believe?Help Thou Mine
Unbelief."
-o
Wben days are dark, and eights are long.
And hard the way. and sad the soug,
We ask : Where is our God'.'
We blindly grope, and strive, and strain
For what we thiuk the greatest gain,
Kct knowing onr real want.
Oh ! creatures mean and small, and weak,
Why should He answer when we speak,
And make our selush moan ?
If we bad faith as mustard seed,
It would suffice our greatest need,
And smooth the roughest way..
Shame, shame, fslse hearts, fresh eo*.5rage
take,
Rise up, and through the net-work break
Of folly, pride, and doubt.
0 God, our hands in thine we place,
In humble faith content to trace
The path where thou dost lead ;
Close following, though we cannot see,
Believing there is light with thee
Sufficient for our day.
The Triumph of Christianity.
The following passage is quoted by j
the London Quarterly Revicic, with the j
remark that, '*for the commendation of j
its wide historic survey, and its vigor
00s and glowing eloquence, it is one of j
the finest in the whole range of litera- j
tare,"
'It arose in an enlightened and seep- '
!icalage; but among a despised aud j
narrow-miuded people. It earned j
hatredand persecution at home by its j
liberal genius and opposition to the :
national prejudices; it earned con- i
tempt abroad by its connection with the i
country where it was born, bat which
sought to strangle it in its birth. \
Emerging from Judea, it made its on- j
ward march through the most polished j
regions of the world?Asia Minor, I
Egypt, Greece, Rome?and in all it at- j
tracted notice and provoked hostility, j
Successive massacres acd attempts at!
extermination, persecuted for ages by j
the whole force of the Roman Euioire,
it bore without resistance, and seemed I
to draw fresh vigor from the axe; j
assaults in the way of argument, from j
whatever quarter, it was never asham- j
ed or unable to repel, and whether at- j
tacked or not it was resolutely aggrcs- j
ave. In four centuries it had pervad-!
ed the civilized world; it had mounted j
the throne of the Caesars; it had j
spread beyond the limits of their j
sway, and had made inroads upon bar- j
bariao nations whom their eagles had i
never vssited; it had gathered all j
genius and all learning into itself, and ;
made the literature of the world its own ; \
it survived the inundation of the bar j
barian tribes, and conquered the world i
once more by converting its conquerors j
to the faith ; it survived an age of bar- j
barism ; it survived the restoration of j
letters: it survived an age of free iu- !
quiry and scepticism, and has long j
stood its ground in the field of ar- j
gument. and commanded the intelligent j
assent of the greatest miuds that ever j
were; it has been the parent of civi- j
lization, and the nurse of learning, and j
if light, and humanity, and freedom be j
the boast of modern Europe, it is to !
Christianity that she owes them. Ex-}
hibiting in the life of Jesus a picture, \
varied and minute, of the perfect hu- j
man united with the divine, in which j
the mind of man has not been able to i
find a deficiency or detect a blemish? \
a picture copied from no model aud ri- j
vailed by no copy?it has accomodated j
itself to every climate ; it has retained j
through every change a salient spring :
of life, which enables it to throw off j
corruption and repair and renew its I
youth, amid outward hostility and in- j
ward divisions."
"How Can These Things Be? i
This question of Nicodemus concerns 1
the Saviour's solemn and emphatic as- j
sertion of the necessity and possibility j
of a new and heavenly birth, to pre-j
cede, and prepare us for an inheritance j
in the kingdom of God. "How can j
these things be V9 asked the master in j
Israel. Says Dr. Storrs:
"It is as if you were to see the pa- j
per rolling out in its clearness, its ;
whiteness, its firm texture, aud to be i
told that it is composed of those filthy !
and fragmentary rags which you have i
just seen put behind the mechanism, j
*How con it be ?' It is as when you j
have seen the rough, earthly bulbs, and j
afterwards the brilliant bed of tulips, !
and are told that all that color, all that i
symmetry and grace of figure and form j
have come from these usightly bulbs. !
'How can it be V It is as when you j
are show the magnificent lily of the !
Amazon, with its immense leaves, its j
fragrant white or rose colored ilovrers,
and are told that that prodigious and ;
lovely growth has come from the small j
farinaceous seed which was at first ex- j
hibited before you. 'How cau these j
things be?' By whatsubtlc mechanism, ;
almost intelligent and nrecient of re- !
suits, is the white sheet unfolded from j
the rags ? By what secret chemistry j
in air and earth, in sunshine and show- !
er, is the bed of tulips developed out i
of the bulb, or the magnificent Victoria
lily out of the seed? 'How can these,
things be?' Explain the forces which !
are involved; show nie the ingenious j
contrivances which are implied and '
neccessary; open to me the secrets j
which lie behind the phenomena, that I \
may be better alle to enter into, recog- j
nize, and feel the force of the amazing \
fact which you affirm."?The Chris- '
tian.
When attendance at public worship j
or at prayer meeting is not large, we ;
are apt to think the meeting will not |
amount to much, as there are so few !
present. Just as if God could not bless ;
a small number as well as the mal- !
titude. We think when such feel- j
ings steal into hearts of those asscm- I
bled that they need a;i especial blessing j
to teach them that the Lord does not I
depend on the size of the congregation
for an opportunity to pour out hi* i

Believers are not dependent upon ':
circumstances. Their joy comes from!
what they have, and from what they
are; not from what they enjoy, but
from that which has l -en suffered for
then- by their Lord. It is a singular
joy then, because it often buds, blooms
and ripens in winter time, and when
the fig-tree does not blossom, cry] there
is no herd in the stall, (jed's rlabak- :
kuks rejoice in their salvatioB.
Respect Due To Wives.
Do not jest with your wife upon a j
subject in which there is danger of i
wounding her feelings. Remember that I
she treasures every word you utter. Do j
j not speak of some virtues iu another \
mau's wife to rcmiud your owu of a j
fault. Do not reproach your wife with j
personal defeets. for, if she has sensibil- j
; ity, you inflict a wound difficult to heal. !
I Do not treat your wife with inatten
! tion in company ; it touches her pride, j
j and she will not respect you more or j
love you better for it; do not upbraid !
J your wife in the presence of the third J
j person : the sense of your disregard for j
j her feeling will prevent her acknowl- j
I edging her fault. Do not eutertain j
j your wife by praising the beauty and j
i accomplishments of other women. If \
\ you would have a pleasant home and a j
j cheerful wife, pass your evenings un- j
j der your own roof. Do not be stern I
and silent in your own house and re- j
I markable for sociability elsewhere.
The Secret of Genius.
i 'They talk/ said Tom Marshall to |
i an intimate friend, of my astonishing
bursts of eloquence, and doubtless imag
ine it is my genins bubbling over. It is I
! nothing of the sort. ITl tell you how
I do it:
'I select a subject, and study it from
the ground up. When 1 have mastered
it fully I write a speech ou it. Then I
take a walk, and come back, and re
vise and correct. In a few days I sub
ject it to another pruning, and theu
re-copy it. Next I add the finished
touches, round it off with graceful peri
ods., and commit it to memory. Then
I speak it iu the fields, ou my father's I
lawn, and before my mirror, until ges- \
ture and delivery are perfect. It some
times takes me sis weeks or two mouths
to get up a speech. When I have one
prepared I come to town. I generally
select a court day when there is sure to
be a crowd. I am called on for a speech,
and am permitted to select my own sub
ject. I speak my piece. It astooishes
the people, as I intend it should, and
they go away, marveling at my power
of oratory. They call it genius, but it
is the hardest kind of work.'

About Silk Culture.
There is an evident revival of inter
est iu the subject of silk culture as shown
by our correspondence. Some write to
ask where eggs may be procured, others
wish to know how much it will cost to
start an establishment for silk growing,
and other inquiries are received relating
to the matter. Those who have looked
into the sublect most thoughtfully have
come to this conclusion, with which we
quite agree If silk culture ever be- j
comes one of our industries, it must be, |
at least at first, upon a small scale. It
must be a family industry, a part of the
farm products, just as the raising of !
chickens and of bees are at present. {
Nearly all of the labor required to raise j
a crop of cocoons is of that light kind j
that may be performed by women and I
children, and by those whose feeble j
health or advanced years will not allow j
them to join in the active work of the !
farm, yet would be glad to feel that J
they were doing something to contri- j
butc to the general welfare. While the j
raising cf a crop of cocoons docs not re- j
quire hard labor, it demands intelligent |
care and attention, which must be given i
continuously. To care for the worms j
one day and neglect them the next, j
would result in disaster. There must j
be regular feediug and constant sysiem- j
atic attention throughout. By proper
management, no doubt an important,
though not very large, addition may be j
made to the income of the farm by the j
labor of those who might not otherwise j
be profitably employed, and by affording |
occupation to such would be useful j
aside from any money returns. So we j
feel assured that those who have investi- j
gated the subject are right, when they |
advise that silk culture be undertaken j
as a home industry. Let it be begun '
in a small way, aud when the bustuess \
is thoroughly learned, for like every j
other such industry it must be learned,
then if found desirable it may be in
creased. Deguu iu this manner, with j
nothing but what the resources of the
farm cau supply, even a failure will
bring no loss, while the experience
gniued will be of great value. The let- j
ters of inquiry are largely to ask where j
eggs can be procured, and how to treat
them. There is something that goes
before this?have our correspondents j
food for the worms after they are hatch
ed : We do not recollect to have had j
an inquiry upou the question of a sup- j
ply of food, yet this is the very starting
point in silk culture. On.' who should |
buy a herd uf cows without considering ;
if he b-ad proper pasturage, would make i
no grater mistake than do iuu&e who j
propose to raise silk without first pro
vidiog proper food. What is proper \
food't it must be some form or species j
of Mulberry, or the related Usage |
Orange. Either the common White j
Mulberry {Morus alba,) or the Chinese j
Mulberry (.)/. multicaulis,) or some of j
the new varieties of these, are the best, j
Very excellent results have attended j
the proper feeding of the leaves of the
Osuge Orange, and where there arc
abundant hedges of this, the raisins: of
silk may be undertaken with a fair pros
pect of success. If there are neither j
hedges of Osage Orange or Mulberry !
trees, theu the first step, before cousid- i
ering the procuring of eggs, is to make
a plantation of some kind of Mulberry'
to supply the worms with food : we say j
'some kind of Mulberry,' because if a j
special plantation is to be made, the
Mulberry is preferable to the Osage ;
Orange. The Mulberries must grow at
least a year before silk worms are to be
thought of, hence the beginning of silk j
culture is the planting of these trees, j
The varieties and manner of planting I
will be given in another month.?Amer

Vaccination.
Vaccination was discovered by Or
Edward Jen tier, an English physician, i
Before he was twenty-one years of age
his attention was called to the subject
by hearing a young countrywomen say j
that she could not take the small pox j
because in milkiog she had contracted I
the cow pox. His inquiries elicited the j
information that the small pox had j
never been known to prove fatal to j
those thus protected, and furthermore i
that the belief in immunity from small I
pox to those who had taken the cow pox
was very goncral in the agricultural dis- j
tricts. It was not, however, till a quar- j
ter of a century afterwards, May 14, j
1796, after repeated experiments and j
laborious study, that he performed the j
operation of vaccination on James !
Phipps, a boy eight years of age. The j
introduction of the practice of vaecina- j
tion was violently opposed by the medical {
profession and the clergy. A reaction
took place and within ten years Jen- j
ner's fame was established ; testimonials
flowed in from crowned head? and scien
tific bodies, and he was regarded as hav
ing conferred an incalculable benefit on
mankind.
During the first three days after vac
cination there ought to bo little or no
result apparent except such as follows
the use of the knife. On the fourth day
a small pimple can be felt; sometimes
this cannot be discovered for two or
three days later. On the fifth day the
pimple has become larger, and on the
sixth day appears a little round blister
about the diameter of a pea. On the
seventh day this has a small dark spot
in the center, which gradually becomes
larger, until ou the ninth day the whole j
pocket except the margin has the ap- j
pearauce of a scab with a hollow p.'iot
in the center. On the thirteenth day
the patient is sometimes covered with a
rash resembling scaret fever. This is a
part of the disease and ought not to be j
mistaken for erysipelas nor treated by j
iodiue or other external application for j
fear of the disease changing its location I
to some internal organ, such as lungs j
or brain, and perhaps causing death, j
This rash soon goes away of itself, leav
ing the patient safer from small pox
than if they had had it. The scab dries
down, fails off and leaves the scar with
which every one is familiar. In people
who have once been vaccinated the vac
cine runs a shorter course and some
times a very imperfect one.

//. "If. Warner <j Co., Hock-.star, N. Y.:
Gentlemen?For twenty years I have suffer
ed more or less from my bladder and Kidneys.
My business for many years had required me j
to travel ail over the southern states. Whilst j
going to Texas, last fall, I saw in a paper an J
advertisement of Warner's Isafe Kidney and
Liver Cure. I bought a bottle, and in less
than a week the improvement in my health
was palpable. Since then, my general health
has improved wonderfully, and I now enjoy
a degree of health and strength, in every par- ]
ticular, such as I had not hoped it po-stble to ;
enjoy again in this world?of which I am sat- j
isfied, under God's blessing, has beeu due to '
your remedy.

Gentlemen: For eighteen months I suffered
intensely with a disease of the kidneys and a
torpid liver, and after trying every remedy !
that I could hear of, besides being under the j
treatment of some of our ablest physicians, 1 j
had about given up my case as hopelessly in- i
curable, when I was prevailed upon by my j
wife to try your Safe Kidney and Liver Cure. I
I confess thai I had but little Ruth in its !
merits or efficacy: but to my great joy and!
satisfaction, after I had commenced on the j
second bottle. I continued the use of the med
icine until I became completely cured.
Judge court of ordinary.
Thousands of equally strong endorsements
?many of them it case where hope was aban
doned?have been voluntarily given, showing j
the remarkable power of Warner's Safe Kidney \
and Liver Cure, in all discsues of the kidneys,
liver and urinary organs. If any onr* who
reads this has any physical trouble, remem
ber the great danger of delay.

Extract from a Letter.
"The Queen's Delight" is beginning to
awaken the attention of our physicians. Its
remarkable curative powers are seen in its
wonderful effect upon disease. As a blood
purifier there is no medicioc like it known to
the profession. A gentleman told me that his
son had been taking the Queen's Delight, and
is more benedted by it than by any other
medicioe. He wants a dozen bottles.'1
;tDr. E. Heinitsh:?Yeur medicine for
Chills and Fever is a sure remedy. I have
been suffering for several months past, and
one bottle ofyour Chill and Fever Cure has
entirely cured the disease. I have not had a
chill since, and I regard my health restored."
Yours, Respectfully, M. D. WADE.
"I have used two bottles of 'Queen's De
light' and one box pills. The pain in my
hack and side have left me; my liver is acting
well; my appetite better and my headache
gone. I feei like a young man; I shall use
your valuable medicine as long as I continue
to improve."
Yours, Respectfully, J. L. B.
"Mr. E. Heinitsh?Dear Sir :?Mrs. Rials
was suffering with Liver Complaint and pains
in the side and heart, nervousness, couhi not
sleep, bad appetite, and general bad health.
I procured one bottle ofyour 'Queen'sDelight'
and Blood Pills. I regard her case as cured.
She is looking as well as she ever did. Your
'Queen's Delight' is a blessing to the afflicted.
I give this certificate cheerfully."
