"A little course-of law woeld be most ??ffectrre;" replied the fermer. "In this case -coals of fire would be better. Try the coals first, William, ^fry the coals first," Farmer^aws9frvSi&de reply, but breas festband walked out of with the decided step of one -made up Ms mind, and some ^thing is going to be-dcae.^ -..-^...^ His wife *igbed as she went about ^her work, thinking of the weary, heart "Er ien- mother with her sick and hun gry babes around her. Tbe farmer proceeded to examine j bis cribs, and after a thorough search , found a bole large enough to admit a man's hand. 'There's the leak be exclaimed; TU fix that? andie went to work set ting a te&p inside.' ?fext morning he arose earlier than ?suai, and went oat to the cribs. His &3p1iad caught a man?Tom Slocam, '.the very one he bad suspected ! He seemed to take no notice of the thief, but turned aside into the barn and began heaping the mangers with :hay, sweet-scented from the summer's b?rvest field. Then he.opened the-crib door and took oat the golden ears?tbe fruits of his honest toil. . 11 the time he was thinking what to do. Shoa?d he try the law or the -coals"i The law was what the man deserved, bnt his wife's words kept ringing through bis mind. He emptied the corn iu the feeding troughs, then went around where the man stood with one hand in the trap. Hello! neighbor, what are yon do ing here be asked. Poor Tom answered nothing, but the downcast, guilty face confessed mere iban words* could have done. Farmer Dawson released the impris- ? oned hand, and takiog Toofs sack, or- ] dered him to hold it while he filled it j with the coveted grain. i There Tom, take that,' said the far mer, 'and after this when you want corn eoflH?to'we"and FUJetyou have it on j trust or for work. I^iei&auother hand on the farm, and will give s?e??y Jork | with good wages/ *0, sir/replied Tom, quite overcome, | Tve been wanting work, but no one would hire. My family are suffering, ! and l am ashamed to beg. But I'll ? work for this and every ear Tve taken, ' if you'll give me a chance.' Very well, Tom,' said the farmer, 'take the corn to mill and make things ! comfortable about home to day, and to morrow we'll begin. But there's one thing we must agree to first.* Tom lifted an enquiring gaze. Ton must let whiskey alone,' con tinued the farmer ; 'you must promise not to touch a drop.' The tears sprang into Tom's eyes, and bis voice trembled with emotion as he said : You are the first man that ever asked me that. There's always* enough to say, -'Come, Tom, take a drink,' and Fve j drank until ? thought there was no use | in trying to be a better man. But ? since you care enough to ask me to stop ? drinking, I'm bound to make the trial ; that I will sir.' Farmer Dawson took Tom to the j bouse and gave him his breakfast, while ! bis wife put np a basket of food for j the suffering family in the poor man's home. j Tom went to work tbe next day and j the next. Iu time he came to be an efficient band on tbe Dawson place. He j stopped driokiog and stealing, attended j Church and Sabbatb-schoo? with his family, and became a respectable mem ber of society. 'How changed Tom is from what he once was !' remarked the farmer's wife I one day. 'Tes,'replied her husband, ''twas the ? coals of fire that did it.' -4??-?*??? A Transformation. A full-bearded grandfather recently bad bis beard shaved off, sbowiog a clean face for the first time for a num ber of years.

District Reporter. mm mm Htk and Point As m seme parts of the world the cold is so intense that the mercury freezes and the registering of the tem perature-ceases, so with conscience, we may sink so far in sin that it ceases to reprove, for itself is froxen and power less. The lowest pulpit is higher than the highest throne. I would rather preach a large gospel in a small church than a small gospel in a large church. Solitude is the audience chamber of God. The business men of the Church don't attend the prayer-meetings. It is a mistake to suppose that counting caoney may be a safe and acceptable substitute for prayer. The realization of God's presence is the one sovereign remedy aj^esftemp tat?on. It is that which~^sj^tains_?Ji?~ consoles us^jn^ -?&3s~?s. ^^?waDt to help your pastor in building up the Church ? Meet him at the next weekly prayer-meeting. That will help him. Methodists were called to be a wit nessing people. Their history makes that plain. When they cease to wit ness their light will be extinguished. The Western Christian Advocate says : man who feels that he can neglect his religious duties, but can not neglect his business, is not quite fit for the kingdom of heaven. There is no busioess at all in heaven, and those who arc interested in nothiDg but busi ness would be ill at ease in that celes tial city.' Here isa short sentence from Bishop McTyeire that should be kept on the rounds : knew a boy who went to school without a hat three years, and who at last came to feel that he did not need a hat. So I have known a com munity to do without a church until they did not want a church. An infidel on his death-bed felt himself adrift in the terrible surges of doubt aud uncertainty. Some of his friends urged him to hold on to the end. "I have no objection to holding on," was the poor man's an swer, "but will you tell me what I | am to hold on by ?" There is the fatal want. Infidelity furnishes neith er anchor nor rope to the sinking 60ul. It gives nothing to hold on by. SPECIAL CASH OFFER. Ojt Sa?a?tiJmaii?in^ou?^r?n WILL BE SENT Until January 1886 for $1.001 -CASH.

"Christian Augensclager, a German "imnngrant, who arrived in tbe steamer Westphalia from Hamburg yesterday, met with such a startling surprise when he landed at Castle Garden that he faint ed dead aw?y, and it is feared that he will have to be sent back to Germany Under the law which prohibits commis sioners of emigration from receiving in sane immigrants. When Aagenschlager went on board at Hamburg he succeeded in smuggling his favorite dachshund Blucher into the ship. He had heard that there were foxes iu the State of Wisconsin, where he was going, and he wanted his dachs hund to go into the foxes' holes and pull them out. The body of the dachshund was fully two and a half feet long, but the length of his legs was not more thao six inches. His body was a mixture of black and tan, and his fore paws stood out at right angles with his body. Everything went well with Augen schlager and his dachshund until one day the burlesque on the canine species escaped from the steerage, and was soon after found by the cook in the galley, helping himself to a huge piece of meat. Augenschlager missed tbe dog just in time to run up on deck and see the cook drag Blucher by his tail to the ship's side and hurl him into the middle of tbe Atlantic ocean. Augenschlager had committed an of fence in smuggling his dachshund aboard the ship, and, of course, had nothing to say. He merely went be low and wept. It was during the forenoon of Thurs day, May 21, that Augenschlager saw his dog thrown overboard. On step ping ashore at Castle Garden yesterday his attention was at once attracted to a dog that lay curled up and trembling on one corner of the dock, and which looked remarkably like his lost dachs hund. 'Komet du hier Blucher !" said Augen schlager with a half-stifled voice. The dog responded by creeping up to Augensch lager's feet, for sure enough it was Blucher, Augenschlager threw up his hands, exclaimed "Mien Lieber Gott I It is Blucher'e ghost !" He was cared for by a fellow passenger, as was also the dachshund, which had .manifested no surprise at all on meeting bis master under such straoge circumstances. The unfortunate immigrant's talk became very wild and incoherent, and it is thought that he will become permanent ly insane. News of the remarkable occurrence spread rapidly, and finally came to the ears of Ernest Picard, who was a pas senger in the French steamer Norman die, which had arrived a few hours ahead of the Westphalia. Picard said that on the afternoon , of Thursday, May 21, the Normandie ran into a whole 'school' of icebergs. The weather was foggy and the ship laid to or proceeded under low sail for several hours. While the ship was at a stand still the attention of some of the sailors w?sattracted by a strange looking ani mal in ihe water, which was taken for a seal brought from the Arctic regions by one of the bergs. ; The animal swam straight ulp "to the ship's side, and a sailor got down and easily pulled it in. Tbe animal was then found to be a German dachshund, and, what seemed strangest of all, he had in his jaws a beefs liver and lungs, commonly called the 'pluck.'* The dachshund was Augenschlager's Blucher, and the buoyant 'pluck' which he had stolen from the galley of tbe Westphalia had helped him to keep afloat for nearly six boors. The Normandie, after getting clear of the icebergB, passed tbe Westphalia, and Blucher was landed at Castle Gar den with the rest of the passengers, in advance of those who came in the steam er from Hamburg. He refused to fol low Picard, who had 'adopted' bim, and remained on tbe dock, as if he expect ed bis old master to arrive in due time. ? . Y. Journal.
