JAMES, HORACE THORNE. tf Richmoxid Hill 743-ly 756-1y 764-tf 684: The date was that of the civil war between the Parliament and King Charles I. The two parties had taken up arms, and weré vigorously carrying on the conflict. The king’s army had been defeated several times, and those of his adherents taken with arms in their hands were led before judges ap- pointed by Cromwell in every town, to be condemned as rebels. ' Sir Nicholas Newcastle was one of those judges. He was a. man of austere manner, but without fanaticism,- his devotion to the new government was well known, and Cromwell had a special esteem for him. His weakly constituâ€" tion did not allow him to serve in arms for the cause which he thought the just one, but he was looked upon as the most active and able, as well as the most vigorously just magistrate in the country. One evening Sir Nicholas was at supper with his his family and a few of his friends, when a. band of soldiers arrived with alroyalist prisoner, whom they had just succeeded in cap- turing. It was an oï¬icer who, after the rout of King Charles’ army, had been vainly trying to reach the coast, and there ï¬nd means of escape to France. Sir Nicholas ordered his hands to be unbound, and another table to be placed near the ï¬reâ€" place. The soldiers thanked him, and sat downxat the table near the prisoner, who did not appear to be much affected by his position, and fell to on the pro- visions set before him with, as good an appetite as any of them. “ It is my birth-day," said he, " and I Wish to ï¬nish merrily the supper which I have begun. Give refresh- ments to, this Chevalier and the guards. At present I would be his host, in an hour I will act as his judge.†Sir Nicholas returned to his place at the head of the large table and resumed what had been interrupted by the arri- val of the soldiers with the prisoner. "Well, I was telling you,â€. he con- tinued, “ that at the age of ï¬fteen I was still so weak and puny that every one scorned my feebleness and took adâ€" vantage of it to ill-use me. First, I had to endure the 'bad treatment of a. was close beside me. step-mother, then that of my school- ‘ fellows. Courage in boys is only the consciousness of their strength. My weakness made me a. coward, and far from hardening me, the roughness and harshness to which I was exposed made me only more shrinking and sensitive to pain. I lived in a continual state of fear, butabove all I feared the master’s cane. Twice I had suffered this cruel punishment, and I had preserved such an accurate remembrance of the pain, that the very thought of a. third inflic- tion made me tremble all over. I was at Westminster school, as I have al- ready told you. The forms were taught in a large room together, and were. separated one from another by a cur tain, which we were expressly forbidâ€" den to touch. One Summer day drowsii ness had overcome me for a. moment in the middle of a Greek lesson; than a slight noise starting me out of my nap, I only saved myself from failing off my seat by catching at the curtain, which It gave way at my grasp, and to my horror I sawthat I had made in it a tear big enough to‘ see the next class through. The two masters turned round at the noise, and at once perceived the damage that had been done. The blame appeared to lie between me and the boy next the cur- tain on the other side; but my con- fusion soon pointed me out as the cul- prit, and my master angrily ordered me to come and have a dozen blows of the cane. I got up, staggering like a drunken man 3 I tried to speak to ask pardon, but fear had glued my tongue to my mouth ; my knees trembled under me; a cold perspiration broke out of my face. The instrument of punishment was already raised over me, when I heard some one say: “ It was the boy on the other side of the curtain. He was at oncé called forward and received the dozen blows. My ï¬rst impulse was to prevent this unju t punishment ‘by confessing the truth; «but I could not; summon courage “ ‘Do not punish him. It was my fault I’ Give me a. man with an aim, Whatever that aim may be, Whether it’s wealth or whether it’s fame, It matters not to me. Let him walk in the path of right, And keep his aim in sight, ‘ And work and pray in faith away, With his eye on the glittering height. Give me a man who says, “ I will do something well, And make the fleeting days ‘ A story of labor tell.†Though the aim he has be small, It is better than none at all ; With something to do the whole year through, He will not stumble or fall. But Satan weaves a snare For the feet of those who stray, NVith wave;- a thgught or_' a. gate Where the path may lead away. The man who hath no aim Not only leaves no name When this life’s done, but ten to one He leaves a. record of shame. Give me a man whose heart Is ï¬lled with ambition’s ï¬re ; ‘Vho sets his mark in the start, And moves it higher and higher. Better to die in the strife, The hands with labor rife, Than to glide With the stream in an idle dream, And live a purposeless life. A Man with an Aim. The Tom Gurtam. RICHMOND HLLL, ONTARIo; CANADA, FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1873. enough to do 'it, and Wlien the ï¬rst blow had been given I was ashamed to speak; When the flogging was over the boy passed near me with bleeding hands, and whispered to me with a smile thatKI shall never forget 2 V “ ‘ Do not meddle with the curtain again, yOungster. The cane hurts.’ “I sank down in ‘9. ï¬t of sobbing, and they had to send me out of the room. Since that day I have been dis- gusted with my cowardice, and have done all I can to overcome it. I hope I have not been altogether unsuccess- ful." “ To the memory of the torn curtain at Westminster ! But upon my word, Sir Nicholas, your memory is not so accurate as mine. It was not twelve blows that I received, but twice twelve â€"-for having exposed another to pun- ishment, and not at once declaring my- self to blame.†' “ And'do you kndw this generous fellow '2†asked one of the gnawâ€"gâ€" “ Haie you everrseen him agaixi’!†“ Never, unfortunately. He was not in any form, and left the school soon afterward. All ! God knows ( that I have often wished to meet With the gallant fellow. who suffered so much for me, and I would give years of my life to be able to shake hands with him at my table.†‘ At that moment a glass was held out toward Sir Nicholas, who lifted his eyes in astonishment. It was the royalist prisoner, who laughineg proposed a toa'st. “You are right ; now I remember I but in What a. situation ! in what a ser- vice L†explaimedrthe jgdge. “ In the service of iny king, Sir Nicholas. I was not going to be the ï¬rst of my family who had played the traitor. My fathei‘ had already died in arms, and I expect no better fate. Never mind; I only ask one thing: "God save the King 1' " With these worâ€"ds the royalist re. turned to his place among‘the soldiers and continued his repast. , That very night, after having given orders that the prisoner was to be well treated, he left home without saying where he was going, and was gone three days. On the fourth day he arrived, and ordered the royalist ofï¬cer to be brought before him. “ Are you going to settle my aï¬'air at length ’l" asked he coolly. “ Itiis time to do so were ‘it only for humanity’s sake.. They treat me so. well at your house, Sir Nicholas, that before long I shall come to wish te-retain my life." “ My friend,†said the judge, with a grave face, but in a voice trembling with emotion, " twenty years ago you said to me, ‘Do not meddle with the curtain, youngster, for the cane hurts l’ Hero is your pardon, signed by the Lord Protector ; but in my turn I say to you, ‘ Do not take up arms against the Parliament, for Cromwell is‘not easy to deal with.’ †That man in the corner,â€"â€"can it be there are possibilities of good yet hidden in the depths of his soul? A. miserable, sullen face ;. not deiected, bu; stupid and meanâ€"bloated l)y the bud stutf whose sickening odor every now and then is wafted towards us, deï¬ling the sweet fragrance of morn- ing. It is early in the morning. before, the gay and fashionable people of the great city are astir, so there are strange, odd faces that crowd into the car. We watch them, with a sad, wondering curiosity. It is hard to believe that they and We are com- panions on the same journeyâ€"chil- dren of the one Father daily drawing nearer the same silent land, where we shall all meet together at the last. And that boy next,â€"can we ever bring ourselves to think of him as a. little, pure infant, over whom prayers were breathed and mother-love un- tiringly watched? All traces ofglad boyhood have faded out of his face, grown old and hardened, as it were, by petty crimes :â€"red and repulsive, its stolidity seems to say, " I am my own master, and will go on in my own wayâ€"nothing can turn me.†His ceaseless rolling from side to side of the black morsel that gives him a sort of grim pleasure ï¬lls us with amazement, and we start back in dis- gust as he spits it out, careless Whom it reaches. Then that woman by his side, with her hard, unwomunly face, coarse-fea- tured and ugly, without a glimpse of soul-light shining out of her eyes! Can she ever be kind and gentle, loving even in roughness? We think not. There is no SWeet ministration about her, no promise of help; only the added harshness of a soured na- tureâ€"a woman nature, turned aside from its rightful chun els. Perhaps the boy had such a mother, who left him alone, to grow up at the rude mercy of the world, untaught and un- loved. There is more in that than we dream of;‘a=d surely the merciful Father, who judges every man ac- cording to the light that- he has to guide him through this lower dark- ness, looks upon the boy With pity, and will one day raise him up by the the eternal law of compensation, to a higher place than he can ï¬nd here. But, alas! what can we say for this man, whose bold, unblushing wicked- ness quails even before the most high God ? He is eminently respectable in What I Saw. Now it is later. The old faces are going and new ones coming. The workers of the world are hurrying on to their toil. Men of business, who traverse the same route every day, now with earnest, intent eyes ï¬xed on the paper, cull the news, husband- ing their time, in uttemforgetfulness of those around them; eager faces and sad ones; hearty, comfortable looking people, who have enough and ‘to spare; thin, visionary tired people, who work hard and eat too little. It is an epitome of the world. his dress. There is not the tawdry ï¬nery of an inexperienced, common Villain about him; buta sleek sedate- ness which makes us shudder and in- stinctively turn away, as his hard, glittering eye rests upon us in its wanderings. There is a life of sueeess eevil that has prospered and led him on to deeper depthsâ€"written in his face. Weare strangely troubled. Why is sin so strong? Why does not God overrule the weaker will of the crew ture, holding him back from ruin? Are there some doomed to perishfrom the beginning? For what, then, were they born? He only knows! and we close our eyes and cry, “ Kyrie Elei- son I†There'is apoor Jew peddler, with his basket choicer guarded on his knees, his coat torn and ragged; his shirt rivaling it in its dinginess; his IOng hair unkempt; his hands so black we long to ask him if he has no time to rest by the brook and fulï¬l the command of the fathers. His keen eye and insinuating smile tell us he is already preparing his maiden speech for the day; and with a half smile we wonder Why money is so precious to him’ as to need this be- wildering tissue of lies to gain it; for he has had no home,’ no friends, none to whom he would be glad to give it. Here are all sorts of faces. Some tell their own story; others are sealed, inscrutable, and all our wondering tells us nothing. We make mistakes, too, in our studies, just as we make our great mistakes in life. We turn with loathing away, when often, if the veil were lifted, we should kindle into divine compassion towards those we deemed so unlovely. -He who loves us best “ knows all, yet loves us better than he kn0Ws;†and one day, when sin shall be separate from us, and all unsightliness shall be no more, we shall understand, in part; that perfect heavenlylove which seems noeat cred thing. ‘ One great cause of- intemperanco may be found in our social and fashionable parties, along with the guy, the young, the lovely' and the beautiful, that throng the festive hall's, where joy lights the eye, and smiles betoken the gladness of the heart, then comes the tempter,_ like Satan among the sons of ‘ God, to do his ï¬endish work. To the banqï¬eting of love, the wicked elf, un- bidden, comes ta mar its pleasure. He who has the ï¬rmness and forbearance to resist the enticements of the grog- shop, yields to the tempter when the deformity of vice is masked by the smiles of lovely woman; he is over- ceme, not by the vice, but by the seâ€" ducer, and in a moment of excitement, with a head overflowing with the poetry of love, he. drinks the accursed poison because it is offered by a fair hand, not caring that the flowers he thus chillies with conceal a reptile whosesting is death; he fears not death ; if woman be his destroyer ; and the rose-buds of love, with a withering fragrance, breathe over his grave, “like angels’ sighs,†their perfumed breath. The spell is now broken ; the samples to the ï¬rst indulgence have been overâ€" come, and the unfortunate young man, like a vessel broken loose from its moorings, to be driven withou: chart, rudder or compass, before wind and tide, becomes the slave of circumstances and lies at the niercy of accident. Chance now controls his destiny, and, in all probability, he becomes a. drunk- ard, and what beyond that the heart will not permit the tongue to speak. As we look around and see whether his footsteps tend, we turn away and blush with shame for the honor of our race. Young lady, are you not startled at the theught that the sparkling glass with which you tempt the gallant, highâ€" toned gentleman at your side, may be that which will decide his fate both for time and eternity? Such is the nature of man, that he has not any powerto resist the influence of women ; “the serpent knew this when he'planned to mar Eden’s bliss.†fie may have the fortitude to endure any hardship ; he may have the courage to charge up to the cannon’s mouth7 and may be able to meet death without shrinking back, but, We repeat it, he has no power to resist the silent elo- quence of woman’s soft blandishments and sweeter smiles, which speak di- rectly to the warm and generous heart. But this influence was given to woman that it might be. a. blessing to man. Woman was designed to be a, comforter, a. solace to man in his afflictions, and not to multiply his difï¬culties and heap fresh calamities upon his head ; and“ to her credit be it Spoken, that her influ- ence has, most generally, been so em- lployed. Young 1ady,_do not think me pre- suming too much, for I speak from ex- perience= and know what it is to stand upon the very threshold of destruction. It was a fair hand that started me on Intemperance. my downward course. But to-day, thanks be to God, I stand a free man, and would warn all young ladies against the practice of tempting young men with strong drink. Ever have before you the words of living light, “that whatsoever you would that others do unto you, do ye even so unto them,†and thus you will live to a good and noble purpose; the memory of the past will be pleasant, and your future glorious. In my dining room over the furnace register, there is a pasteboard ï¬gure of a man grinding at a hand mill. He seems an earnest worker. \Vith coat off, both hands grasping the crank. his form swaying too and fro, as the crank, with a fan wheel above it, goes round and round, his every motion is that of an intelligent and industrious toiler. His are no humdrum ways. At times he grinds patiently as if for contin uous hours of effort. Again he springs to his task as if for his life, every nerve seeming strained, and his Whole soul in the endeavor. Then he appears over- worked, almost ready to drop. He starts the crank, but it comes back on him. He tries once more but vainly. Pushing it slowly forward, he carries it by the centre almost round the circle, but he - cannot complete the circuit. As he rests there all in a quiver, unable to perform his task, one is tempted to pity him for the burden he beats ; and it seem cruel to intimate that he is malt» ing no effort, having no thought. Yet it is true that, even mechanically, that man in no sense moves the crank. On the contrary, the crank moves the man. The current of ascending hot air starts the fanâ€"wheel above. The fan-Wheel turns the crank below. The crank moves the man, in whose hands it is securely fastened. The varying motions, the ï¬tfulness, the halting, or the plodding, are all those of the mill, not of the grinder. Indeed the power of man is hardly essential to the idea of such varied activity at the crank ; for when amonkey’s ï¬gure is put up in the place of the man, he seems quite as competent and as active as the other. “The H {'09. The Man whom the Crank Turns. I have a. recipe to offer. It is a compound, being composed of several ingredients. altis an excellent remedy, unehiwhen properly applied-rhasw amazing good effect ‘upon farmers’ boys, keeping them at home in the evening when they ought to be there, and making them love home better than any other place on earth. Here are the ingredients: ‘ 1. Treat them as partners with you. Give them to understand that they are interest-ed in the success of the f'armix 3' Operations as much as you are yourself. 2 Converse freely with them. Get their opinions, and give them yours. If at all prudent, make use of their glans, and when you think your own est, explain to them why you do'not adopt theirs. Don‘t keep them alto- gether in the dark with reference to your plans for the future. 3. Don’t require them to stay at home in the evenings all the time. When there is any meeting or enter- tainment from which they might re- ceive beneï¬t, he sure to let them go. 4.'Provide them with plenty of goed books and papers; especially referring to agriculture. Let them be well posted in their businessâ€"- farming. 5. Nvevcr scold them because they don’t do their work or attend to the business of the farm as well as you do. Encourage them. 6. Give them a holiday now and then. They look for it, and they need it; and it will he better for you and them to let them have it. Farmers, try my recipe, it acts likeacharm. ‘ We need not preach the courage to dieâ€"that is common enough-th the courage to live, to be honest in spite of poverty and neglect; to be true, though all is dark except where God shines in; to be faithful though heavens fall, and hearts break, and friendship turns to gall. Yes, we must teach men to dare to be unpopu- lar, to be misapprehended, to be ahead of the times, to follow the voice of God, though it leads into the wilderness, to tell the eevil to his very face that belies. and also to give him his dues, an act which requires the supremest courage at times. 1 wouldn’t give a furthing for the triumphant faith of the death hour. nucless it comes from that triumphant faith that makes our life hill of the noblest during, that is ready to fling aside honon wealth, the praise of friends, rather than impair 101' one moment the soul’s integrity. Oh, for such a courageâ€"the courage to think, to act, to tell the harsh truths, to overthrow splen- did falsehoods, to disown_ sweet lies and to banish tenderest associa- tions rather than check in the least free movement of the sovereign soul. We all must die with more or less equali- imity, but we cannot live in the full splendor of our being except by cour- age and determined exertion. The coward, under certain circumstances, may die grundly, but never, under any circumstances, can he live grandly. BY REV. H. CLAY TRUMBULL. The Courage to Live. A Good Recipe. RULE II.â€"~In choosing clothing for warmth, look ï¬rst for that material which is the best non-conductor of heatâ€"your chemistry will direct you in that respect, (ladiesiwould do well to bestow double the amount, of time usually devoted to it upon this most useful and much neglected study); and secondly, for the utmost lightness and fleeciness of texture attainable, twovor three folds of which, crossed loosely over one another, being amply sufficient to rectify any deï¬ciencies in the single thickness. In accord- ance with the same rule,give a loosely- woven, long-napped icloth, provided it be ï¬ne and light, the instant pref- erence over one of greater weight, closer texture or shorter nap. Take for your guide the fur of animals in- habiting cold countries, of which the ï¬nest and lightest is always the warmest, and is consequently placed next to the skin, beneath the coarse outside hair. that serves only to pro- tect the other, and to shed water. RULE {ILâ€"Never let a garment of any weight be dependent upon the hip alone, but divide the Weight Very nearly evenly with the shoulder, by means of the proper supports. The disastrous efl‘ects of a contrary course have been so often and ably demon- strated, ‘that it is hardly necessary in this connection to do more than bring the fact to mind. Heavy skirts, at all times, and under nearly all circum- stances, are an intolerable and unne- cessary burden, and a hygenic abomi- nation, which should be dispensed with at once and for all. RULE 1V.â€"-And last, but by no means least, never permit any gar- ment to be so tight as to ‘preVent a full breath being drawn with ease from the bottom of the chest,’ or to impede the circulation in anyway. This rule ought to be written in large caps in every book or periodical de- voted to the subject of healthâ€"â€"enâ€" grayed in letters of gold over every lady’s toilet glass; ought to head every book of directions in dress- making; be impressed upon every in- telligent mind; and, what is best of all, be acted upon by every woman in the land. ' Of course no sensible woman would think for a moment of squeezing her feet and. hands into shoes and gloves a size or half a. size too small for her; but ladies who are counted sensible in other respects, will oftentimes draw the laces of their shoes. or the straps-of their skates, so light that circulation in the feet is an‘ impossibility, 0W lso tightly around the wrist, as to l leave ared mark when removed, with- ‘ out considering that these temporary dorangoments of the balance of cir- culation, trivial as they seem, will, if persisted in, lay the foundation of a more extensive and permanent de- rangement, with more serious conseâ€" quences than cold feet, creased wrists, and numb ï¬ngers. The same caution applies also to garters, girdles, waistbands, and the like, which, if they cannot perform their ofï¬ce withâ€" out being drawn uncomfortably tight, should be dispensed with, and some other contrivanco made use of to soâ€" cure the same result without this dis- advantage; which, in most cases, can easily enough be done.«-â€"From the Science of Health.

This has been disproved by their liberal course to- wards Dr. J. C. AYER’S preparations. They have adopted them into general use in their practice, which shows a willingness to countenance articles that have intrinsic merits which do- servo their attention. This does the learned profession great credit, and effectually contradicts the prevalent erroneous notion that their opposition 1to proprietary remedies is based in ltheir interest to discard them. We havenlwuys had confidence in the honorable motives of our medical men and are glad to ï¬nd it sustained by the liberal welcome they accord to such remedies as AYER & Co.’s inimit~ able remedies, even though they are not ordered in the books, but are made known to the people through the newspap ersâ€"Jl‘ew Orleans Lelia As when a child travels in his fa- ther's company all is paid forx but the Father himself carries the purse, so the expenses of a Christian’s warfare and journey to heaven alje paid for and disâ€" charged for him by the Lord in every stage and conditionâ€"Gurmdl.
