the besieged army. A day’s rations were also willingly given up on the capitulation. One of the war corresymndents of the Lon- don press describes the following scene:â€" “This afternoon I witncrscd a Very touch- ing scene. A French Sl’lllier of the m1 Line Regiment, belonging to the Corps of General Frossard, had been made prisoner at the outposts. He is a native of Judy- my Arches. where his wife and children now live. En mutant on his way to Corny, where the head-quarters of the Prince are now situated, he asked pennission to be al. loved to see his wife and children. Need I fly that the request was immediately gmnt- ed? The poor woman, half delirious with joy, asked to be allowed to accompany her husband at least to Corny. This was also acoeeded to: but then came the difficulty about the bairns. The Woman was trunk and could not carry her baby, and at home there was no one to mind it; as for the little chap of fiveâ€"he could toddle along by his father's side. The difficulty was, how- ever, overcome by a great big Pomeranian soldier, who volunteered to act as name. This man had been quartered close to the woman’s house; and the little ones w him, for he had often played with them. When, therefore, bidding the poor wife to be of good cheer, he held out his big mung mm to the little infant, it mine to him immediately, and, nestling its tiny head upon his shoulders, seemed perfectly content. So did the Prussian soldier entry the Frenchman's child. When I first law the group, the wife was clasped in her husband 3 embrace, the little boy clung to his father’s hand, whilst the Prussian sol- dier with the baby in his arms stalked slang by their sides. Then the Frencliwo- nan told her husband how, when she had been ill and in want of food, the Prussian soldiers had shared their rations with her, bad fetched wood and water, had lit the fire, and helped her in their own rough, . kindly way; until at last those two men, ”who belonged to countries now arrayed » ' each other in bitterest hateâ€"who perhqi a few days since fought the one ' the otherâ€"embraced like brothers; w ' I, like a great big fool, stood by find cried like a baby. But I was not domin my folly, if folly it be; several ' oflicers and soldiers followed my mingleâ€"fur we all had wives and chil- dren in far-ofi‘ homes.” May I, O Lord, improve The time which Thou dost give, That I at last with Thee above, Eternally may. live. 0 may the remnant of my days Bo all devoted to Thy praise.

T2,: Diocesan Synod of Montreal has suddenly sprung into a leading position in the Temperance reform. This suggests the happiest anguries for that cause, and duo for the Church. When a. body, till now held to be the most conservative of all, steps forward to lead the people in amove- nent for which the people themselves have Iéng‘felf the‘dire need. there is little cause to fear ,tlie confounding of tempetance withiinfi'aeli'ty, as is 'nnhappily the case where the church has gold to the drunkzu'd a ' ' ' . looks, and this so kind and good a heart as to make those words, actions and looks lovely. I love a woman who lives for a purpose; one who does not drift through life, but one who sees the way of her duty clearly, and, with warm energies and stead- fastness 0f aim, steers her course onward. You enter the house of the woman I love. The courtesy with which she receives you is not mere conventionality; but is seamzned with genuine human kindness. Hercon- versation is not forcecl,-â€"-not empty: warmth of heart, practical education, and a refined mind, render her ennversation pointed and pleasing. There is something genial and home-like in her rooms as well as her mannersâ€"am! this is because her household arrangements are based upon a refined taste, and a desire to promote the comfort of others. Love of empty show enters not into her composition. and there- fore you see no tokens of it. In the hour of trouble and perplexity, the Woman I love shines forth as man's better angel.â€" Unselfifii of heart and pure of plll'pnse, she shells a golden radiance around his darkened path-way, and points to thebea- con light ahead. â€"“Go thy‘way and tithe the pledge: we have need of none.” I LOVE a woman with aheart; one whose heart is large enouglp to fill the whole sphere of her duties. I love a. woman with aingleness of purpose; whose words and actions are sincne, not one who studies efi'ect in all she says and does, but one who sets and speaks from her heart, and whose genuineness of heart expresses itself in her , L_4_.

Dnornxc A Fanâ€"A conceited snob, who was so fond of fine clothing that he revelled in them by day and dreamed of them by night, one evening visited a lady, and as he removed his overcoat, etc.. in the hall, preparatory t9 ‘cptering the par- lor, the lady overheard him utiering the following words. Taking his overcoat and hanging it up, he said: "Hang there, you fifty-dullnr overcoat!” Pulling (41' his glnves and laying them on the table: “ Lie ihere, you five-dollar gloves!” Placing his hat on the rack: “ Hung there, you ten- dollar halt" Putting his cane in the cot:- ner. “ Stand here, 3-071 fifteen-dollar cane!" Then entering the parlor, he was about to sit down, when the lady pulled the chair from under him, and as she left the mom, said: “ Lie there you two-cent fool!” He has not been seen around that house since. Tm: 1mm: or Pnorasnxr tnok its rise from the following circmnstances:--At a diet of the princes of the empire, held in Spires, in Germany. in the year 1529, it was decreed by the majority there present, that in those places where the edict of Worms had been received, it would be lawful for no one to change his religion; that in those places where the new religion (that is the Lutheran) was exercised, it should be maintained till the meetina of a council, if the ancient (the popish)religion could not be restored without danger of disturbing the public peace; but that the A MA.\' was bmught before a. Magistrate in the States the ntherday, and fined 86,50 for being drunk. He smiled blandly, and drawing out a dollar bill said ;, “ All right Mr. Magistrate, I suppose you remember when I snld out my saloon in Perkin I had $5.50 on the slate against you. With this dollar that will exactly pa) my fine. 'ou must excuse me Squire, for this little spree of mine; but I didn't see any other way of collecting my hill against you than this.” Tun greates‘ cause of sunstroke is the immodemte use of nlcohulicliquors. This fact has been shown by statistics, for by far the greater number of sufl'erers have been accustomed to indulging too freely in intoxicating liquors. Cleanliness is another matter. to be atttended to. Dur- ing the warm Season occasional bathing should be resorted to.

T HI-IUnited States newspapers are l rcrelling in the details cf a touch- ingl y sad story of the mental de- ; rangement of a young lady, beauti-l ful, :iccon‘.plished,and an only daugh- 1 ter. The first symptom which at- tracted attention and excited alarm was that she was found by her mo- thcr in her own room energetically darning stockings. Soonafterwards she came into the kitchen and assist- ed that good lady in baking bread, pastry, and the like. Such striking symptoms of mental disorder natur- ally increased the already awakened fear-sin the maternal bosom. Pater- t'amilias was consulted, anda skilled physician was sent for, who watched her through a key hole, and found her sewing buttons on her father’s shirts, and mending the garments of her little brother. The doctor declar~ ’ed that during a medical practice of twentyofivc years he had never seen such symptoms as these before. In the hope of giving a new direction to her morbid thoughts, her father, a few days ago, offered her 3200 to buy a new dress: she simply replied that she. didn't. need a new dress, and that if she might keep $25 to pay a poor widow’s debts She would rather he would keep the remainder of the money himself.
