H?foa's Prayer of Patience.
~ Wehave< been requested to publish the
following exquisite poem. It was written by
M^?merican.lady, Elizabeth Lloyd, after
,: wards, Mis. Howell of Philadelphia. Many
persons have fallen into the mistake of sup
posing it to be Milton's own production,
jjsg'This idea prevailed for along time even in
V~ England, where it was thought the poem con
tamed too many traces of-the* 'Miltonic fire"
to.have come from any other hand than the
biind old poet's own. We have noticed with
" in ihepast few week mutilated copies of it
published in at least two of our leading reli
i" " ?ous exchanges and beaded Milton's Last
'- I.' Pbenu"* We caution the brethern to look
more closely to their literary columns and to
r:? **irerify their quotations." Its authorship as
:7>'gjfrea above is now questioned in the literary
world.
. I am old and blind!
Men jxwnt at me as smitten by God's

Yet am I not cast down.

Thy chaiiot I hear.
Thy glorious face

And shere is no more night
On my bended knee,

My vision Thou hast dimmed, that I may see
Thyself?Thyself Alone.

Oh, I seem to stand
_/Trembling, wheve'ftrt of mortal ne'er hath
been,
Wrapped in the radiance of Thy Sinless
hand
Which eye hath never seen.
Visions come and go,?
'Shapes of resplendent beauty sound 'me
throng;
-iFrom angel lips I seem to hear the flow
Of soft and holy song.

When heaven is ripening -oa my sightless

When airs from Paradise refresh my hrow,
That earth in darkness lies.

m GROUNDS AND 51ETH0D OF IXTOUSSCE.
Moses attributes the crowning act of
fGod in the making of man, to the sixth
<lay, m the order of creation., thus mak
ing the seventh the first fall day of his
existence; and as tire seventh was cho
sen for the sabbath, it is coeval with
-man. "Whatever period of $isie may be
covered by the word "day" ?a the Mo
saic account ef the creation, is immate
rial to this discussion, since it, is clear
that the sacred.sritor'uses the period
represented Vy a "day," having a defi
nite begi?R?g and end, "an evening
and a morning," as a symbolism to rep
resent the periods of the divine labor
and rest; and so it is immaterial to this
discussion, whether tfcc symbol were
clothed in the oostnme of the literal or
not. In any-case the word "day" is a
iman term under which the sublime
my9tery^of divine work, and cessation
4herefrom,-is couched. "AndjGrod
blessed the sev^?^a^v^ffd^'s?nctified
it; because that in it ha had rested from
-all i^a work which God created.*'
Then the first Sabbath dawned upon
-our-earth before it was blighted by the
'Curse; and oa its peaceful morning,
Adam awoke from his first eight's re
pose to celebrate the wisdom and power
of God, as they burst upon his soul from
this wonderful universe, with his first
sunrise Phidias, the renowned sculp
lot, so intertwined his own name with
the carious work on the shield of Mi
nerva, over the portico of the Acropolis
of Athens, that it could not be cut away
without destroying his whole work. .
In like manner the eye of man read the ?
signature of the great Architect every- '
where, when the sun flooded the new
creation with glory, and before a mus
cle of his body was toil worn, or a facul
ty of his soul clouded by sin. The
whole creation was to him Jehovah's
infinite argument, that he was man's
Maker. Thus the Adamtc Sabbath was
generic, was made for man ia his indi
viduality as maD; for no social or na
tional relations then existed. It. was
to work out for him both conviction an -1
joy, even in his ianocency. The first
purpose of the primeval Sabbath, then,
was the commemoration of Jehovah's
creative attributes, a standing monu
ment of that great monotheism which
underlies both human responsibility and
divine revelaticr. This purpose of the
Sabbath was infinitely worthy of its
Founder; for, when "the heavens and j 0
the earth were finished, and all the host j 5
of them," it stood an eternal protest j
against every possible form of i
materialism, pantheism, and atbe- j
ism. The first Sabbath com rein on ded j C
man to stand still, while the "heavens" j I
declared to him the glory of God, and
the firmament" showed "forth his han
diwork." It challenged, "Why look -
est thou so earnestly on us, as though
by our own power we had made our- j ?
selves? Jehovah is the maker of us 0
all." The first Sabbath attested to
^man that the world was not its own ere- ;
ator, that an unbridgeable gulf stretch- j S
es between unconscious things and the ! ?
living God, between divine volitions and j li
the eternity of matter. Its mute elo- t
quence witnessed for God, then as now, g
and barred out all idea of pagan-adora- ; s
tion to strange gods and all worship of! o
nature, by claiming man's first homage j ii
fb* the Creator of heaven and earth.? j
Rev. Tkos. Jjrmitage, D. I)., in Sab-l
Ibath Essays. ! t
The Waiting Mother.
Of the terrible disaster which hap
pened on tho first of April 1873, I sup
pose you have all read; how a great
steamer struck at night on the rocks off
Halifax, and carried down to a watery
burial some six hundred people. Maoy
bodies have been found and identified,
but many more will never be seen again
until the sea gives up its dead.
Among the numbers marked "miss
ing" is the son of a widow who lives \\y
Detroit. She still clings fondly 10 the
hope that her Willie will yet come back
to her. The papers have never . told
her that he was lost." and she feels that
by some means he s was saved. Every
day she sets his plate on the table, that
all may tje in readiness if he should ar
rive; and every week she searches the
papers for tidings from the sea.
"I havn't heard from Willie yet,"
she says in answer to the neighbors'
queries, "but I hope I shall this week."
How long her faith will hold out we
cannot tell; but doubtless for years to
come she will be an anxious watcher.
A sudden knock at her koor will make
her start, and her heart throb quick;
and when the door opens she will al
most unconsciously look for Willie to
come in.
0, how many mothers are watching,
hoping and prayiug for their boys to
come back ! boys who are wrecked al
most as hopelessly and fearfully as were
the passengers of the Atlantic?wreck
ed on land, in the fearful dram-shops
that destroy more bodies and souls than
the most cruel reefs on our coasts!
but a mother never forgets them. Said
xn a?ed mother to me of her in tern per
lte son, now a gray-haired man, "There
isn't an hour in the day that my poor
boy is out of my mind." And the bit
ier tears coursed down her furrowed
sbeeks. His wife aod brothers had
jast him off, bat his mother's heart
;lung to him still with all a mother's
ove.
O, how can a son slight such love 1
Flow can he resist a mother's pleadings ?
fne hour will come when its memory
will sting like a viper, but* often when
t is too late to make reparation for past
?eglect and unkindoess.
The Drunkard's Despair.
Sev. J. J. Talbot, an Episcopal
dergyman who was expelled from his
liocese for intemperance, has reformed.
Recently he made a temperance speech
u Terra Haute, Indiana, from which
we take the following "words that
rare:"
For five days and nights I lay at the
*ates of-hell. But He was pleased to
Irag me forth from the presence of the
>aosts with whom I held such awful
xmverse. I can now survey the field
rad measure the losses. The prime of
ny life was wasted. I had a high
>f&ce and an unspotted character. This
lemon of wine dragged me down, and
.he drunkard's life was mine. I had
Deans but my riches fled. I had a
i>eautiful home, but the demon entered,
ind the light faded from, the walls. 1
iad beautiful children, but this mon
ster took their dimpled hands in his, and
led them "to the grave.
I had a wife whom to know was to
ove. To-night she sits in misery,
while I wander restless over the earth.
[ had a mother whose chief pride was
ny life, but the thunderbolt struck her
oo. Years of work in the cause of the
ight mav give back to these arms my
oving wife. But, oh ! when I clasp in
mother world, the hand of my mott^ex^L
ind thus I stood, and/*tn"us 1 stand to
lay, a husband without a wife, a father
vithout a child?-all swallowed up in
he fearful mcelstrom of drink.
I stand with scarce a friend on earth.
?o, drink of that bitter cup, and then
isk me if 1 can paint in too high colors
he picture of my despair?ask me if I
late the agent of my ruin. Hate it! T
late the whole damning triffic! I
vould to God that every distillery in
his nation was in flames. I would
vrite on the glowing sky in letters black
ls their smoke: "Woe, woe to him

No Sabbath.
In a prize essay on the Sabbath,
written by a journeyman' printer in
Scotland, there occurs the following
>assage. Bead it, then reflect for a
vhile what a dreary and de6 te page
eould this life present if the Sabbath
rere blotted out from our civilization:
"Yoke fellow! think how the ab
traction of the Sabbath would hope
essly enslave the working classes with
rhom we are identified. Think of la
>or thus going on in one monotonous
ycle, limbs straining, the brow forever
>o the rack, the fingers forever strain
ng, the brow forever sweating, the feet
brever plodding, the brain forever
hrobbinjr, the shoulders forever droop
og, the loins forever aching, the rest
ess mind forever scheming. Think of
he beauty it would efface, the merry- j
ieartedness it would extinguish, of the
;iant strength it would tame, of there- j
ources of nature V: would crush, of the j
ickness it would breed, of the projects'!
b would wreck, of thf ^roacs it would
xtort. of the lives it would immolate, !
,nd of the cheerless graves it would pre- j
naturely dig ! See them toiling and j

While three boys were rowing on the !
?chuylkiH Kiver, at Heading, Pa.,
Sunday evening, some one threw a I
ighted cigar in the water, which was j
bickly covered with benzine from the j
;as works. The boys were almost iu- j
tantly enveloped in flames and jumped j
verboard. All of them escaped drown- '

How to Apply the Soda Rem
edy in Burns and Scalds.
It is now many years ago (see the
London Medical Gazette of March,
1844) that the author of this paper,
while engaged in some investigation as
to the qualities and effects of the alka
lies in inflammations of the skin, etc.,
was fortunate enough to discover that a
saline lotion, or saturated solution of
the bicarbonated soda in either plain
water or camphorated water, if applied
speedily, or as soon as possible, to a
burned or scalded part, was most effect
ual in immediately relieving the acute
burning pain; and when the. burn was
only superficial, or not severe, remov
ing all pain in the course of a very
short time; having also the very great
advantage of cleanliness, and, if applied
at once, of preventing the usual conse
quences?a painful blistering of the
skin, separation of the epidermis, and
perhaps more or less of suppuration.
For this purpose, all that is necessary
is to cut a piece of lint, or old soft rag,
or even thick blotting paper, of a size
suffcient to cover the burned or scalded
parts, and to keep it constantly' well
wetted with the sodiac lotion as to pre
vent its drying. By this means, it
usually happens that all pain ceases in
from a quarter to half an hour, or even
in much less time.
When the main part of a limb, such
as the hand and forearm or the foot and
leg, has been burned, it is best when
practicable, to plunge the part at once
into a jug, Or pail, or other convenient
vessel filled with the soda lotion, and
keep it there until the pain subsides; or
the limb may be swathed or encircled
with a surgeon's cotton bandage previ
ously soaked in the saturated solution,
and kept constantly wetted with it, the
reliei' being usually immediate, provid
ed the solution be saturated and cold.
What is now usually sold as carbon
ate of soda is what I have commonly
nsed and recommended: although this
is well known to vary in quality ac
cording to where it is manufactured?
but it will be found to answer the pur
pose," although probably Howard's is
most to be depended on, the common
carbonate being too caustic. It is be
lieved that a" large proportion of medi
cal practitioners are still unaware of the
remarkablo qualities of this easily ap
plied remedy, which recommends itself

THE BEST REMEDY
for
Diseases of tie Tinoat and Longs.
JT-^TTT? In diseases of the pul
i II ?*AV?> monary organs a safe
and reliable remedy .is
invaluable. Aykr':
Cheuky Pectoral h
such a remedy, and: no]
othersoeiaineutlymer
its the confidence ofj
'fj the public. It is al
' entihe combination o!
thf:' medicinal princW
pies and curative vir4
tues of the finest drugs!
chemically united, ofj
such power as to insure
the greatest possible
cfiiciency and uniform
r>U/yrT/\'d' eT7~~ ity of results. Itstrii
r L\j 1 vRrtb* at tne foundation of i
pulmonary diseases, affording prompt relief ]
and rapid cures, and is adapted to patients of
any age or either sex. Being very palatable J
the voungest children take it readily. Iii
ordifarv Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat,]
Bronchitis, Influenza, Clergyman's
Sore Throat, Asthma, Croup, and Ca
tarrh, the effects of Ar*at's Cherry Pec
toral are magical, and multitudes are an?
uuallv preserved from serious illness by its
timely and faithful use. It should be kept
at hand in every household for the pro
tection it affords* in sudden attacks. In
Whooping-cough and Consumption
there is uo other remedy so efficacious,
soothing, and helpful.
Low prices are inducements to try some of
|; the many mixtures, or syrups, made of cheap
and ineffective ingredients, now offered,
which, as they contain no curative qualities,
can afford only temporary relief, and are
sure to deceive* and disappoint the patiert. i
Diseases of the throat and lungs den: ?ad
active and effective treatment; and it is dan
gerous experimenting with unknown and
cheap medicines, frcm the great liability that
these diseases may, while so trifled with,
become deeply seated or incurable. Use
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, and you may
confidently expect the best results. It is a
standard medical preparation, of known and
acknowledged curative power, and is as
cheap as its careful preparation and fine-:m
ingredients will allow. Eminent physiciansiS^,
knowing its composition, prescribe it in theteSs
practice. The test of half a century has
proven its al>solute certainty to cure all pul
monary complaints not already beyond the
reach ?f human aid.
