THE WAY SHE WON HIM,
A young girl leaned from the window of
pleasant oouniry parlor, chatting with a fine
looking man some ten years her senior, who
alood among the flowers below, and pelted
her with rose buds still glittering with dew.
"Slop, atop, Mr. Mansfield," she said, as
ha twined a Immlful of flowers ill her dark
curia. . "What was thai you asked me T

"Orrly to describe you beau ideal Io me,
I may know him if wo ever meut," aaid her
companion desisting from bis sport, leaning
one arm Upon the window sill, and gazing into
her animated face with an admiritiK mile,
" "Oh, that ta easily done I Imprimii

They pnssed on and took their seats at the
Pleasant lamilv table. A moment a Her, lioil
Irey ClinWi entered, looking a litils pale, and
seeming a litlle cold. , Throujihout the day he
was much with ftluiion, but though his man
ner wus courteous and kind, she missed an In
definable something that bad charmed her. 'at
first, and wnnoered if she bad been deceived
in the tell tale glance of his beautiful, brown
eyea.
Ab I She had no means of knowing what

Iv, that Godfrey Clinton, in pa.-sing t y Hit

The days passed by. Marion, like Godfrey
was simply a guest at her uncle's pleasant
home, and at liberty to devote her whole time
if aha cJionre to du ao. Much of It was passed
in his company especially as the arrival ofj
Jennie Hrrinn, her dearest friend, Jlansfielils
Ci'KMii 1" well aa his belrothed blide, to k ligr
gallant reliiive away from lier.
While i lit young lovers, absorbed in each
other, took little heed of thrir friends, they
were traveling a most dangerous rood together.
Marion loved strong and beat iful poetry the
deep, mu-ical voice of the student rend it to
her in the lonely library she sketched he
a-waya carried her purifolio, and pointed out
(he most beautiful views she rode, and he
was ever at hr bridle rein if she choose to do
to
to, him. Much of it was passed in Ins
company especially when he sung, and her
light touch was nee ien upon me piano, to
make the melody complete.
And yet, all this familiar intercourse could
not make him one whit more lover like than
he bad been on that fir.st unhappy morning.
If his eye flashed nnw and then, and his ho-
nm yearned to hold her there in an Imnossion-
ed embrace if hi hind trembled at the light
touch of hers, 'or his Cheek paled and flushed
at the fanning of her warm breath, she never
knew it. He was always quiet, reserved and
rather cnld -never striving to seek the vacant
place by her side, but taking it, if all circum
stances were favorable, exactly as he woul l
have taken any other Chair, and talking to her
as he would and did lo any other young and
iiteity girl.
Mar on was puzzled. For the first tirrie In
her life she met him coldly, but he did not
seem lo notice it if she creeled him half ten
derly, he wore a sarcastic air lhat made her
angry; and if, aa was often the case, she tried
to piuue him by a desperate fliitation with
another, hia soft brown eyes wore a mingled as
tonishnient and disgust lhat hurt her more
than a thousand cutting rebukes from her
cousin Louis could have done; That cousin
Louia, by-1 be way would often smile mi
chiwously as he passed by her, and touch the
diamond ring Upon his left hand.
Marion waa proud aa well aa beautiful and
coqueliUh. Waa she the gay city telle, for
whoee smiles a thousand haughty, lovers had
sued in vain, to waste her tuna m this lonely
out of-1 he way place, simply because a per
verse atudenl refused te love her, in prefer
ence to his books? . rhe thought, with i
strange yearning, of I he-crowned city, and Ihe
countless friends who would flock around her,
when it was known sue hid reitirned. She
would give up her foolish vagei presen' Jen
nie Willi the diamond ring of which she had
ti'ed, long before re I urn to her city home,
and in tha gaiety of 'he coming winter, forget

Khe was. sitting in her room alone when she
made this wide resolution and look the surest
way of ceiling it, by going down into the par

did not liotioe her and silling down in a low
rocking-chair beside Ihe centre table, leaned
her head upon her hand, and listened. But

Time Enough.
;, "Time enough in a dying hour!" Why It
would seom from this plea, as though religion
were the foe of happim-si in tMs life, and lhat
its only value consisted in a passport lit Ihe
world of blessed ne, giten only in death.-
Or, in Other words, lhat religion is necessary
lo die by, not in live by. If this be so, it
would extinguish those lovely genu of piac'.t
cal piety which have ahed such a softening ra
diance over the otherwise rugjftd ways of life.
Look into the liihle, and you will there fin.) it
described as a life as indeed the life the only
life and Ihe happiest life, without which, he
is "dead while he liveth!" You will also find
rules laid down and examples given to govern
it. To quicken it into being was the great
love of Christ in redemption. For this pur
pose "Christ also di'd and revived and rose
again, lhat we should ilve unto him." It is
not merely the pardon of kin, but it is premi
nently Ihe life of faith and love, by which the
nitrified afTect ions are brouuht to rest in God
as their center, and to rejoice in tin) as their
portion. It were fatal In this life, and lo its
lovely practical development and; growing
origniness, to postpone religion to a dying
hour, jn this case, the end of ihe gospel to
raise up living witnesses of its power would
be defeated; and ihe rules for lorrning a holy
lire -would be without an example to verify
their efficiency.
Benefits of Newspapers.
In no other way can sd much, so varied, so
useful information be imparled, and under cir
cumstances so favorable for educating the
child's mind as a judicious, well coujucted
newspaper. "To live in a village was once lo
be shut up and contracted." Uul now a man
may be a hermit and yet a cosmopolite. He
may live in a forest, walking lo a poal-ntTiLV,
navmg a man out once a week, and ye' he
shall be found aa familiar with the livine
world as the busiest actor in it; for a newsna
per is a spy glass by which he brings near the
most distant things; a microscope b) -which he
leisurely examines the mort minute; an ear
trump-.-', by which he collects and brings with
in his hearing all that is said and done all over
tne earth; a muesum lull of cuiiosiiies; a pic
lure gallery .of living pictures from real life,
drawn not on canvass bul with printer's ink

a great tecfurer. It is the common people's
encyclopedia, the lyceum. the college. The
influence ol a good newspaper upon the minds

certainly not compared wiih the cost of paper

Stuck up Folka.

dreadfully stuok on," wa the remark we over-
heard the other day. What are "stuck un"
people,' thought we, and we have been look-
tng about to See if we could find any.
I'o jart see that young man over yonder
leaning sgaiuat the post of that hotel piozZa,
twirling Ihe shadow of a walking stick, now
and then coaxing the hair onhisuppei lip,
ami watthing every laity that passes, not that
he cares to fee them, but is anxious to be ob-
servtd by them, he belongs to the "s uck up
rol:." What Is the oceamonf Well, he
happens to have a rich father, and a foolish
vain mother, who have taught him that he
isn't "common folka" at all, ant' lhat poverty
is almost the same as vulgarity and meanness.
and ao he has become "stuck up," he doesn't
reel neeu of knowing any more, he does not
work, (Br be was never required In, end he is
so extensively "stuck up" that he hasn't the
lesat idea lhat ho wilt ever come down he
dcesn't know, however.
There goes a young woman lady ahe calls

nobody in particular, and an all-pervading
consciousness that all creation and the "rest

nothing thoroughly of anything, is most anx

Irreligion—Political Sermons.
. A Christian minister in this. vicinity, made
the observation recently, thai there were more
"backsliders from religion in the Western Re
seive, than could be found in the same extent
of population and territory, any where else uu
derihesun." This is a pielty strong assertion
nevertheless we have no disposition to dispute
il. ll might alio be said that in no equal ex
tent of population and territory nre there as
many lanaiics and bigots, as many ui vines who
ptfuch (rum Giddiuga' speechea ins'ead ol
Christ's ;Gospel; who would rather be heard
ueciuiiiiing BKUinst uouijius ami tne Lh-mn
era ts, than the Devil and . irreltgion. When
Infidels ai'd Deists are promoted lo offices ol
honor nod profit, and Christian Died support
them by their influence and votes, -it is not
strange lhat the power of religious truth
shouidauiier by their compromise. iheDem
ociatic parly has had to beat the Charge i.f be

nan Infidelity for years; bul Ihe charge never

Western lleseive there ars more 'higher law'
Abolitionists than in any other equal portion of
the Lnion.and it is a conceded lacl that there
are within t'a boundaries more infidelity and
iirelieiou than can be found in the same space
elsewhere. The positive truth is thai nine of
every ten of the Infidels on the Reserve are
Abolitionists. This a fact well worthy the at
tentinn of Christian ministers, who may easily
perceive lhat their is a aiifficitncy nf material
tooccapy their attention, spiritually, and thai

Beautiful Tribute to a Wife.
Sir James Mackintosh, the historian, waa

Scotch lady, distinguished more fur her excel
lencies ol chancier than for her charms. Af

which she became.Hie inoiber of three chil

the bereaved husband wrote to a friend, de
picting trie character of bis wife in Ihe follow
ing terms:
"I was guided (be observes) in my choice
only by the blind affection of my youth. ' I
found an in etligeni companion and a tender
friend, a prudent mociireca, ibe most faithful
of wives, a mother aa tender as children ever
had Ihe misfortune lo lose. I mala woman,
who by the lender management of my weak
ness, gradually corrected the most pernicious
of them. She became prudent from affection,
and though of the most generous nature, she
was laughl frugality and economy by her love
for me.
"During the most critical period of my life,
she preserved order in my affairs, from the
care of which ahe relieved me. She gently
reclaimed me from dissipation; she propped
my weak and irresolute nature; she urged my
indolence 10 all the extrtions that had betn
useful und creditable to nie, and she was per
petually al hand to admonish my heedless
ness or improvidence. To her I owe whatev
er 1 am; lo whatever I shall be. In her so
licitude fur my iniertsl she never lor a mo
men l forgot my feelings or my character.
Even in her occasional resentment for which
I but too often gave her cause, (would to God
I coultl retail those moments') the hud no sul

and impetuuus; but she was placialile, tender
and constant. Such was ahe whom 1 lost

Out tempers to each other; when a knowledge
of her worth hod refined my youthful love

Printers.
Priniers, it is saidi die ot an early re.
Thia is doubtless caused by the noxious ttllu-
via rising Iron) the types, Ihe want ol exercise,
constant employment, and tl.t late hours to
which their work t prolonged. There is no
other class of human beings whose privileges
are so lew, whose labor is so continuous.
whose wagea are e-i inadrquate, as printers.
If a "typo" be a man nf family; he is debarred
of Ihe privilege ol eujoyug il.eir socitly at all
limes, because his hours ol labor are almost
endless, and his moment of leisure no few that
they must be spent t recruit his exhausted

his toils. Poor fellow! he knows holding of

Printers nre universally poor men, rind for
two reasons. The first is they rarelj ever re

nd Ihe second is that enured to continual
suffering, privation and toil, their purse strings
are ever untied lo the bidding of charity, and
the hard earned 'dimes' nre freely distributed
for the relief of Iheir fellow men. Thus it is
thai they live poor and die poor, and if a suit
