FADING REALTY.
Tbe green it foiling from each leaf,
The flowers are on the hill ;
Tin' whirring winds hare almost bushed
The murmuring of (he rill I
The ran that lit the earth with goM
While sinking to its rest,
Has hung a onuieon banner out
To brighten up the west.
The soof-birda, too hare erased to sing
Among the ladiug flower,.
And left a requiem sighing tin-re
For Summer's dying hours I
And even Nature seems to mourn,
To watch bright tnoo.enls dia
Yet fading beauty lingers on
Each leaflet floating by.
How can they say the summer time
la sweeter than the fall 7
Oh I are not autumn's withered leaves
More beautiful than all ?
And can the bright blush of the rose,
However soft and fair,
Be half as lovely as the touch
Of dying beauty there?
i beautious summer fade
Ther is a sweeter charm for me
In autumn's mellow shade I
The withered flowers that droop and die
Each sera and yellow leaf
Seems but an emblem of this life,
Ho fading and so brief.
The flush must fade from every cheek,
The lustre from each eye,
And ell things beautiful must fade,
For all were made to die I
The smile must leave the laughing lip
And joyous boon depart,
For death's cold touch at last will chill
The fountain of the heart

BY THE GRACE OF GOD
WHAT I AM.
I AM
As the Rev. John Newton, that emi
nent servant of God, lay on his dying
bed, a friend waa reading to him the fif
teenth chapter of first Corinthians.
Coming to the tenth verse he read : "But
by the grace of God I am what I am.'
"Stop," said Mr. Newton: "that express
es just my case. I am not what I ought
to be. I am not what I might be. 1 am
not what I hope to be. But I am better

I am not what I might be. For God
did not leave me alone to straggle through
the world. He baa said to every child of

can have the resources of Omnipotence.
Why then should I fail so grievously. If
I had only used those resources I might
have been much nearer what I ought to
be than I am. I might be a much more
consistent Christian than I am- I might
do more. The fault is not in God. It is
not in the religion of Jesus Christ. The
fault is in me, who fail to receive the

BAD BARGAINS.
A teacher in a Sunday-school once re
marked that he who buys the truth makes
a good bargain, and inquired if any
scholar recollected an instance in the
Scripture of a bad bargain.
"I do," replied iK. "Esau made a
bad bargain when he sold his birthright
for a mess of potage.
A second said, "J udas made a bad bar
gain when he sold bis Lord for thirty
pieces of silver.
A third boy observed, "Uur Lord tells
us that he makes a bad bargain, who, to
gain the whole world, loses his own soul."

NEWSPAPER LAWS.
As there are certain definite law in re
lation the righta of publisher of news
papers, which do not seem to be under
stood, we will endeavor to make a plain
synopsis of them and solicit attention
thereto.
1. A Postmaster is required to give no
tice by letter, (returning a paper doe not
answer the law) when a subscriber doe
not take hi paper out of the office, and
a neglect to do so makes the Postmaster
responsible to the publisher for the pay
ment. 2. Any person who take a paper from
the Post-office- whether directed to hi
name or another, or w huther he had sub
scribed or not is responsible for the pay.
3. If a person order his paper discon
tinued, he must pay all arrearages, or the
publisher may continue to tend until pay
ment is made, and collect the whole
amount, whether ii be taken from the
qffiee or not. There can be no legal dis
continuance until the payment is niado.
4. If the subscriber order his paper to
be sloped at a certain time, and the pub
lisher continues to send, the subscriber is
bound to pay for it, i he takes it out of
the Post-office. The law proceeds on the
ground that a man must pay for what he
uses.
5. The courts have decided that refus
ing to tako newspapers and periodicals
from the Post-office, or removing and
leaving them uncalled is prima acta ev
idence Of intentional fraud.

RELIEF roa tub SORELY AFFICTED.
It was the misfortune of the undersigned
to have suffered, aa few have everj suffered
before, for six lona and gloomy years, from
an affection of his feet and legs, superinduced
by overwork, during the first year of the late
war. During all that time, he was compell
ed to drag his emaciated frame about, on
ci niches. In rain he invoked the beat mvd-
cal talent of the country; and visited the
most celebrated medicinal Springs. Worn
down -And exhausted, be gave up all hope of
recovery. At this stage of his case, having
been governed by his medical friends from
the beginning, he determined to adopt a
method of treatment, the result of his own
reflection. It is euough to say. that thL
method is not so much new, as it is, the more
skillful application of what has been long
known, and attempted ny tne rnysieians.
After mine weeks of the most unwearied
and persevering efforts, he was rewarded with
the most gratifying results, ludeed. Ins rap
id improvement and recovery, was almost
mag u. 1 1 so much so. that in looking back
upon his condition a year ago, he can. even

Profoundly grateful for this extraordinary
blessing, he is desirous of being the means
f diffusing similar benefit to those who
may be similarly atmcled. He therefore.

It is one of the great advantage of his
