An Austin justice of the peace who is constantly trying criminal cases was called, on to marry a couple.

"He Hath Borne our Grief." Although the weather has been very stormy during the past six weeks, it has not had any marked effect, in point of numbers on the congregation gathered at the Brooklyn Tabernacle to listen to the remarks of their pastor. Dr. Talmacfi took his text from the 53rd chapter of Isaiah, 4th verse. "Surely He hath bourne our grief and carried bur sorrows." "Far up and far back in the his tory of heaven," he remarked, "there came a period when its most illustrious citizen was about to ab sent himself. He was not going to sail from beach to beach; we have often done that; but lie was to sail from world to world; the spaces unexplored aud immensities uir traveled. I think that the windows and balconies were thronged and that the pearly island beach-was crowded with those who had come to see this illustrious citizen sail out to the ocean of oceans; far beyond this harbor of light; far beyond that city of His residence ; through the narrows far out into the sea beyond; and out ! and out ! and ont 1 and on ! and on! md on ! and down! and down ! and down ! he sped until one night with no one to greet Him, He arrived. His disembarkation was unpre tending; so quiet that it was not known ou earth until the excite ment in the clouds gave intimation to the Bethlehem rnstics that something grand and glorious had happened. Who comes there? From what port did he sail! Why was this the place of His destina tion! I question the shepherds, I question the camel-drivers, I ques tion the angels; I have found out. He was an exjle. But the world has had plenty of exiles. John ex iled to Patinos, Massiuasi from Rome, Emmet exiled from Ireland, Victor Hugo exrled from France. But this one of whom I speak to day, had such a sounding farewell, to meet with such a chilling recep tion; for not even a hostler came out to light Him in. Christ was an inspired exile. ne came down from the throne. His family were princes and princesses. David was dethroned by Absalom's infamy. -Some of the Henries of England and some of the Louis' of France were jostled on their thrones by some of their subjects, but Christ turned himself out from His throne. Roaming in a sheep-pen down from the top to the bottom. He was not pushed off. lie was not manacled for freight transportation. He was not put out because they no more wanted Him iu the celestial do nuin. -1 go a step further and tell you that this exile was far from home. It is ninety-five million miles from here to the suu, and all the great astronomers agree in say ing that the solar system is only one of the smaller wheels of some others. Christ came far from home when He came here. Have you ever thought of the homesickness of Christ? Some of you know what homesickness is. When you have only been absent from home a short time you begin to experience it. I have read how the Swiss, ' when they are far away from their conn try and hear their national air they become homesick and feel it very much. But how of the homesick ness of Christ! Homesickness came out of the storm of the world's depredation. Homesickness will make one week seem as long as a month. I take a step further and tell you that, he, Christ, was in ex ile which he knew would end in assassination. William Holman mint, a master painter, has a pic ture in whieh he represents Jesus Christ in the Nazarene carpenter- shon. The Dicture renresenta tliA saw, hammer, axes, and drills. His carpenters represented as Christ irsing from the carpenter's bench and wearily stretching out His arms as we will after contracted iu an uncomfortable posture. TL picture is so arranged that the arms of Christ wearily outstretched, with His body throws on the ground the shadow of a cross. . .The shadow of a cross was in the road on which the fugitives escap ed into Egypt.

Hawthorne was turned out of office as collector at Salem. He went home in despair, when his wife touching him on the shoulder The Romance of Mr. Stephens' Life. In one of the early years of the '40s Mr. Stephens, then a young man, paid a visit to the .home of Mr. Darden, in Warren county. There he met a flaxen haired, blue eyed girl of sixteen, beautiful in face and lovely in character, piquant, witty and gifted with a mind rarely cultivated. An at tachment grew up, which for years did not pass the formal bounds of friendship, bnt which was sacredly cherished by both. The boy lover was poor in this world's goods; fragile in frame, and harassed by sickness, he did not dare to aspire to the hand of one whom he had learned to love and yet fore- bore to claim. With womanlyjde v'otion the young girl read the secret in the young man's eyes, and true to her heart she could only- wait and love. . One evening in 1849 a party was given at the residence of Mr. Little in Crawford ville. There the two met once more; there they enjoyed that sweet communion born of per fect trust; and there Mr. Stephens found courage to speak the words which for years had fought for ex pression, mitil at last he could no longer contain them. "Are you sure that there lives none other whomlVyou prefer to me!" asked the maiden timidly, half shrinkingly yet only too happy to feel that she was favored in his Liberal Discount will be lumJo fur Larv-r AdTTU mnoU and tot qpnUacta by ihe Xvmr Cub muat accompany "all Altntwnuni unlM food nfbrenc U given.

The farmers must . decide what this system must be and how it shall be inaugurated. It cannot be accomplished - without the ex penditure, of money.

Latest Invention. Mr IJ. O. Savage, near Scotland Neck, says the Commmcealth has conceived and constructed a machine whic he thinks will pick cotton from the row and at the same time deposit it in sacks. Mr. Savage tells us that every practical man who has seen the machine says that it will do the work for which it is designed. Mr. Savage visited Washington City last week with the view of pro curing a , patent and he -receives much eucouragemeut in his enterprise. There is no such ma chine in operation. And it in the inventor's opinion, together with that of all who have investigated the matter, that it will certainly prove a success.
