REUSJONj fVIORALS AND PHILOSOPHY. a O, BROWN. Editor. A PBAYEE. i ?*f BY CARRIE A. BREESE. v : Hj^GodlTcrTj. give onto me . ; /?Spy?^?Dd wrong the mastery ; T, To be content I strive in- vain, ' While sin. in heart or life remain. Thou dost forgive, thou lovest still, In spite of all my way ward will ; Oh, Jesus, *tis4hy love alone Most.save and crown* me all thine own. -... Thine-to obedience quiet and true, - Thine all I think, or say, or do, Thine to the uttermost of love, - : Thine to the blessedness above. Manhood of Christ Nothing could better illustrate His . perfect manhood than His identifying - Himself with the-humble incidents of jt?ttt?tife ?He had; grown up under tnelromii?n ordinances of human ex* perience as a child, a son, a brother, a ?i:;:friend ?nd,a neighbor. Asa Jew He bad shared in the social, civil anet" re? ligious life of His nation. Sis pre? sence at this marriage (of Cana) showed . that He continued the same familiar re? lations toTHis fellow-men after His con? secration as before it. Neither Hts nationality, nor education nor mental characteristics, nor natural tempera g i ment .narrowed His sympathies. TbpDgh. burdened, witJh the high coimmssion as Messiah, He retained a vivid interest in all things human. : With us any supreme occupation leaves only apathy-fotother: things. But in Christ no one faculty or emotion appear? ed in^exce?-v ;His fulness oP nature suited itself to. every occasion. Strength and gracet wisdom and love, courage and purity, which are the ope sio?e^?T^?uT^beingT Vere never display? ed so harmoniously and so perfectly as in Him; -But. the incidents of this mar? riage feast show that the other sid?fthe feminine gentleness and purity, which are theideal virtues of woman, were no leas His characteristics. They threw light on the words of Paul : *Iu Him is jteOTePJe^iw^^ male nor female, bot Christ is all and in all/ He could subdue Pilate by Hts calm dignity, bat He also minis? tered to the happiness a village festi? val. He could withstand the struggle with the prince of darkness in the wilder? ness and through life, but He wept over the grave cf Lazarus. He could let the rieh young ruler go his way to perish if be. went, but He sighed as He healed the .mani who was dumb. He pro? nounced the doom of Jerusalem with lofty stern ess^ but, He wept as He thought bow they had neglected the things of peace. He craved sympathy and He showed it with equal tender? ness; He was calm amidst thc wildest tumult, but He sought thc lonely moun? tain for midnight prayer. He sternly rebuked Peter lor hinting a temptation, bot He Blamed his sleep in Gethsemane as a weakness of the ffesb. He gave away-?a crown when on the cross, but He wals exceedingly .sorrowful even . unto death io the garden. He never used His miraculous powers to relieve Himself, but He-provided for the mul? titude in the wilderness. His judges quailed before Him, for He forgot Hts dying-agonies to commend His mother to a life-long friend. He rebuked death that He might give her son back to the widow ; and He took part in the bumble rejocing of an humble marriage j that He might elevate and sanctify i huma?joys.- I In the foll est sense He was a man, but ! not in the sense tn which manly virtues ! are opposed to those of woman, for He showed no less the gentleness, parity ^snd tenderness of the ene sex, than the strength and nobility of the other. He was the Son of Man in the grand sense of being representative of humanity as a whole. Man and woman have in Him their perfect ideal. The miracle in nature is no less real or wonderful than that of the marriage feast, and strikes ns less by its being familiar. A miracle is only an exer? cise, a new way of the Almighty pow? er we see daily producing the same re - suits in nature' Infinitely varied forces are at work around us every moment. From the son to the ^^stone^ from tbe stone to the think? ing brain and beating heart, they cir? culate ^sleeplessly through all things (otevet?-^-Get?cie^s Life of CJirist. Unwritten Sermons. We read last year a short article con? taining the sentiment quite clearly brought out, that when we are employ? ed in the-writing of a lettter, what we say depends mach upon the known nature of the person to whom we are writiog. That this is.a fact will ap? pear at once upon reflection. Wheth? er there is a sufficiency of delicate ap? preciation in the maj--rity of those who write to make a just adaptation of the writing to the person addressed may be j doubted. The question of just adapta? tion is not involved, it is simply whether there is the tendency in the writing to take complexion from the character of tbe.:person to whom the writing is j addressed. And this fact is further j seen in the effort made to imagine the personal characteristics of those to whom we are writing in. cases where we do not ?now them. It may be allowed that this habit is stronger in some persous \ than in some others, and io all modi- ? fled more or less by the capacity of the j writer for varied composition. In con- ! venation as well as writing the same j thing is true. The faces, the ex- j prensi?n of the person with wi? o tn we ! are conversing, have much to do influ- j cueing our speech. And the same j thing is true when applied to preach- | ing; the speaker will be more or less j influenced by his auditors, by their ex- ! presssion of countenance, and by bis j personal knowledge of their intellectual i and moral status. But this canuot be j so to any great extent where the preach- \ er brings a written sermon, and con- j . fines himself to that. And hence arises ! an argument in favor of the unwritten sermon, unless it can be shown that the j auditor influences the preacher w .ile j delivering his unwritten discourse j quite as much for evil on one occasion j as be does for good on another.- Cen- j tral Protestant. j .- ' ' ml - Louis Jansen, convicted before a ! Chicago Court for illegal liquor selling, ? was, four years ago, chief counsel to the i King of Denmark. He lost his fortune of about two million dollars by the fail? ure of a bank at Copenhagan, ?od lost his place with his money. Old Fashioned Mothers. Thank God (says a correspondent) some of us have an old-fashioned moth? er. Not a woman of the period, enamelled and painted, with her great chignon, her curls and bustle, whose white jeweled hands never felt the clasp of baby-fingers ; but a dear, old fash? ioned 6weet-voiced mother, with eyes in whose clear depth the love light shines, and browu hair just threaded with sil? ver, lying smooch upon her faded cheek. Those dear han^s, worn with toil, gen ? tly guided our tottering steps in child? hood, aud smoothed our pillow in sick? ness, ever reaching to us in tenderness. Blessed is the memory of an old fash? ioned mother. It floats to us now like the beautiful perfume of some wooded blossoms. The music of other voices may be lost but the entrancing memory of hers will echo iu our souls forever. Other faces may fade away and be for- ' gotten, but hers will sbtne on. When in the fitful pauses of busy life our feet wander back to the old homestead, and crossing the well-worn threshold, stand once more in the room so hallowed by her presence, how the feeling of child? hood, innocence and dependence comes upon us, and we kneel down in the molten sunshine streaming through the open window-jost where long years ago we knelt by our mother's knee, lis? ping 'Our Father.' How many times when the tempter lured us*on, has the memory of those sacred hours, that mother's words, her faith and prayers, saved us fiom plunging in the deep abyss of sin Years have lifted great drifts between her and us, but they have, not bidden from our sight the glory .of ber pure, unselfish love. Victory Through Faith. Christian, take -good care of thy faith ; for, recollect, faith is the only way whereby thou canst obtain bless? ings. If we want blessings from God, uothing can bring them down as an? swers from God's throne except it be the earnest prayer of the man who be? lieves. Faith is the angelic messenger between the -soul and the Lord Jesus io glory. Let the angel be withdrawn, he cati neither send up prayers nor re? ceive answers. Faith is the telegraph? ic wire which l'mks earth and heaven -on which God's messages of love fly so fast that -before we call, He answers, and while we are yet speaking he hears us.' But if that telegraphic wire be snapped, how can we receive the pro? mise ? Am I in trouble ? I can ob? tain help from trouble by faith. Am I beaten about by the enemy ? My soul leans on her dear refuge by faith. But take faith away-in vain I call on God. There is no road betwixt my soul and heaven. In the deepest winter-time faith is a road on which thc horses of prayer may travel. Ay, all the better for the biting frost, but blockade the road, and how can we communicate with the great King ? Faith links me with divinity ; faith clothes me with the power of God ; faith engages on my side the om? nipotence of Jehovah ; faith insures every attribute of God in my defense ; it helps me to defy the hosts of hell ; ' \ lt makes mc march tri hm p bant over the : necks of my enemies. ]$at without faith how can I receive anything of the Lord? Let not bim who wavereth, who is like a wave of the seas expect that he j will, receive anything of God. Oh, then, Christian, watch well thy I faith, for with it thou canst win all ; things, however poor thou art ; but ; without it thou canst obtain nothing. If thou canst believe, all things are pos? sible to him" that believeth.-Spurgeon. Good Advice. A young lady writes to Brick Pome ! roy as follows : * Would I be safe in i marrying a man whom I love and who professes to love me, and is handsome, i well educated and bas plenty of the ? world's goods, but is addicted to strong ; drink, but says he will abstain after I marriage, when be has sowed his wild oats? I am an orphan, and write you as a friend for advice.' Pomeroy answered about as follows: . You had better get into yourcoflBo, pull down the lid your? self, and be consecrated to your mother earth, than marry a man who drinks. There are thousands of poor women whose lives are wretched by listening to the promise of reformation after mar? riage, if you do not want to get into your coffin, take the most obnoxious pieces of old meat that you can find aud i take it to your bosom for a husband, I rather than marry a man who is de? bauched, degraded and debased by strong drink. - i- i I l??^. Green Rye as Fodder. In regard to the actual value of green rye used as a fodder the past season, I the following facts may be considered, I as given by a writer in the Times ; ! Seven young cows in full flush of milk, having calve* from two to six mouths old, and having no distinguished cir? cumstances by which a change of feed should fail to act upon thc product of milk and butter with one more than auother, had been fed for some time j upon 15 pounds of mixed clover and timothy hay and com mou meadow hay mixed, cut, wetted, and mixed with 10 pounds of mixed corn meal and wheat middlings daily. The yield had been very regular 112 pouuds of milk per day and 48 pounds of butter weekly from the whole seven cows. The rye became ready for cutting ou the 10th of May, when the first heads bogan tc appear. The daily ration was 60 pounds, part eut and wetted and mixed with the meal as before, and part fed whole, but all was eaten up clean. The second week after feeding the rye the yield of milk was 168 pounds per day, and the weekly make of butter increased to 65 pounds. It will be seen that the fresh, green fodder, while it largely added to the produce of milk, did not quite iucrcase in propotion to the yield of butter, for while on dry feed 16 pounds of milk made a pound of butter, 18 pounds were required when the rye was fed. As the rye approached to blossoming and be? came heavier, and the weather became warmer, the ration of meal was decreas? ed gradually until but six pounds of mixed feed were given daily, and nt the present writing the yield of milk is slightly decreased, but the weekly churning has undergone no diminution. . - IM -???. tm - A sixteen-year old girl sought a singular and painful death in Naples in consequence of disappointed love. While her parents were out she went into the cellar, built a circular pyre of straw and wood, hollow in the centre, and then stepping into the middle, set it on fire. When the old people re? turned they found the charred remains of her half-consumed corpse. . Do Pages Mean Progress. A subscriber writes as follows to the New York School Journal, 'Les? son-learning is all the go in this school. I should be glad to do ; some teaching, but pages mean pro? gress. All the instruction given in mineralogy, natural philosophy and geology is confined to the book. Pupils learn what is said in the book, and would not know granite ii they were to see it.' To this superinten? dent Denton pertinently says : . 'Pages mean progress V We might as well talk of measuring thought with a yard-stick. It is painful to think of the damage done to children by carrying them out of their depth and forcing them to stand on tip-tees in the vain effort to keep their chins above water. Children who could do intelligent work in the second reader are stultified and drowned by driving them into the fourth reader. It is no wonder that a father asked, 'Why do my children learn so much and know so little V9-Teacher's Guide. 'Skipping the Hard Places.' A writer in Golden Days, in ad? dressing a class of boys, gives the following excellent advice, which teachers will do well to note : Boys, suppose you were a con? queror, going through a strange coun? try, and should come to a fort hard to take. What would you do ? Pass around it and leave it behind, or take it before going farther ? If you were to leave the fort behind, the " enemy would have a 6trong hold at your back, and would swarm out and at? tack you unawares The best way would be to capture the fort even if it should take a long time. Then you would be master of the situation. So it is with skipping lessons. When you come to a hard place in your lessons, the best way is to study un? til you understand it. If you pass on without overeomiog-the difficulty, it will trouble you greatly in the future. Conquer it and it will increase your strength. Mrs. Garfield has DO intention of abandoning the Mentor homestead, her present removal to Cleveland being but temporary, to continue while her young? er children are at school there.
