I take great pleasure in bearing highly cred

WE MECT I POX A LEVEL.
We meet upon the Level and we part upon the
Square ;
What word of precious meaning these word
Masonic are ?
Come let ua contemplate them, they are worthy
of a thought
In the very soul of Masonry these precious words
are wrought.
We meet upon the Level, though from every
station come,
The rich man from his maoaion and poor man
from his home ;
For the one must leave hi wealth and state out
aide the Mason's door,
And other finds hi true respect nponthecheck
cred floor.
We part upon the Square, for the world must
have it due ;
We must mingle with the multitude, a cold, an
friendly crew ;
Out the influence of our gathering in memory is
green,
And we look bpon Hit lret to renew tbe hap
py scene.
There's a world where all is equal we arc hnr-
rying toward it fast;
We shall be upon the Level then, when the gates
of death are passed ;
We shall stand upon the Orient, and our Master
will be there,
To try the blocks we offer by his own uner
ring Square.
We shall meet upon the Level there, but never
thence depart ;
There's a mansion, 'lis already for each trusting
faithful heart ;
There's a mansion and a welcome and, a mul
titude is there,
Who have met upon the Level and Uicd upon
the Squure.
Let us meet upon the Lei then, while laboring
patient here ;
Let us meet and let us labor, though the labor
be severe ;
Already in the Western sky the signs bid us
prepare,
To gather up our Working Tools and part upon
the square.
Hands ronnd, ye faithful Masons, form ihe
bright fraternal chain,
We part upon the square below to meet in hea
ven agiiin,
Oh I what words of precious meaning these words
Masonic are
We meet upon the Level and we part upon the
Square.
A Warning to Scolding Wires. An
awful warning to scolding wives conies to
us from Milwaukie. A woman in that
city was "jawing her children, and
neighbors, a hired girl, and everybody in
general, when her husband entered and
interposed a mild word. She opened her
mouth for an angry reply, but a spasm
contracted her check, her lower jaw . Tell,
and she could neither speak nor shut her
mouth, but remained JUt, ijiat, cond itjon, her
tongue J;ung .out, and her eyes nearly
started out of their sockets. She had dis
located her jawbone in her violen; effort
to make u stinging reply to her husband.
A surgeon was calj.ei), wljo reduced the
dislocation, bftuod up her her head, and
prescribed a gruel diet. The old man is
now enjoying tho quietest liu;e lie Jias
had for forty years.
A Ludicrous Situation. One of the
humorous papers has a very funny cut.
It illustrates this scene; An old gent is
walking in hip garden. Presently the
lnilkiiian comes along outside tjie high
garden wall, and gives hi customary yell.
Old gent hears something, .but, being ve
ry deaf, is uuofyle to make out just what
is wanted t so lie put his ear trumpet ia
place, andelevatiug the bell end over the
edge of the wall ; exclaims, 'here!'

THINGS THAT MUS'BE DONE.
There are some thing that must be
done. The sooner we do them the bet
ter. The longer we wait the heavier the
burden grows, and the harder the work
seems to be. There is a time for all
things ; and things are morn easily done
at the Vigtiriffne than at any other time.
We conqu'-r in the fight of faith ny in
stant obedience. Delay is disobedience,
and disobedience ends m death.
A britis.li officer in Inda once had to at

1 lie men gave a cheer and ran for
ward. The. nv'tinoers did not wait for
them. They fled right and left, in every
direction, as if a thuiidderbclt bad fallen
amongst them.
Just as our troubles and temptations
yauish, if we rush forward, with a brave
heart, obeying God, and following Christ,
our Captain, while if wo wait, and hesi
tate and dully, and delay, we loose the
victory and share the coward's fate.
"Stand up my soul shake off thy fears,
And gird the gosple armor on,
March to the gates of endlesoy, '
Where Jcsus,thy great Captain's gone."

8UICIDB Ol' A CANTATRICE
SOMEWHAT OK A MYSTERY,
Few of oar tbcalre going people lat
win remember im beaetilul Amelia Ur-J
cia, who, for tbree or four suecrseive'sea.
eons, wen obouudrd applause on tbe
Uge of our principal theatre. Yonng.
lovlr, and accomplished, the wonderful
harm of ber voice was augmented by
great personal attract! ns. Gay, fasci
nating, and brilliant, she won admirers
by lb core, and at ene lime in lb
beiiffit of ber theatrical tame was tbe
aofaBrbt after and lh ackoaISc4
beaety of ber pre
f her prefeeeion.
That such a woman should have ad
deiily died whbout ber death bring made
known I surprising. Nor will the pub
lie mrprffo be lessened when tbe tact is
made known that she diet m suk'nle.
Her death occurred about two week
since, oa Jacksou street, near tbe corner
of Annunciation, where sb bad resided
lor over a year past.
It will be remembered that about two
year since ate quit tbe stage and retired
to private life. She bad become euamor
rd of a geuilemtu in this city, and for
bis sake abandoned whatever ol lame and
prospect of advancement she bad in ber
profession. Bbe occasionally appeared
on tbe street, alwaj - radiaat, always
beautiful, and whenever she came into
the theatres or public place of amuse
ment he was tbe cynosure of all eyes.
She enjoyed this public manifestation of
admiration, and sustained it regally. Had
she never been a famous singer, Garcia
Would still have been admired for ber
plendid beauty.
But it began to be whispered about that
her life was uot happy. Society bad its
observances that could not be neglected
aud the poor singer, with all her beauty,
could not retain an allegiance which so
ciety demanded to be broken.
The conviction came upon her slowly,
but it came al last. To one of her pas
sionate uatuie there was nothing left her
but to die. It would be wrong, if it were
Iiossible to lift the veil from those last
iour of ber life. Convinced that the
happiness she had bartered so much
to secure was slipping from ber grasp,
anl the cheerless future spreading
dark before ber, she resorted to that Le
thean cup, the poison of tbe suicide, in
which to drown the senses ot her misery
aud the joj lesa life of a deserted and
abandoned woman
It ia said that the morning (some two
weeks a"We) the final separation 'took
place when her friend said good-bye for
the last time Garcia ordered her servant
to go to the drug store and fetch her some
laudanum. The servant, suspecting her
desigttj refused to go. 1 he command,
repeated still more imperatively, was dis
regarded, and tbe servant with tears and
entreaties besought her to refrain from
her wicked intentions.
It had no effect, however, and she went
herself for the poison. On what pretext
ahc obtained it is not known ; but she
did get it, and having taken it, died from
the effects.
The residents in the neighborhood say
that about the time the poison must have
commenced its fatal work she went and
seated herself at the piano, and for more
than an hour played and sang. Jlerrich,
thrilling voice, rising to its lull compass,
reveled in the sweetest music they had
ever heard. Straiusof passionate sorrow
mingled with the sorrowful cadenco era
funeral dirge as the dying caiitatncc sung
her life away.
Amelia Garcia was about twenty-three
years of age, and a native of the West
Indies. Her father. was a Spanish Cre
ole, and her root her a Jewess, a native of
Germany. Her parents came to a. lork
when she was quite young, and she com
menced her professional career in that
city. She sang one season at the Acad
emy of Music iu this city, and one or two
etigagaiuejato.ajijaib, ih eatres, ,he left
the stage, however, in. I860, and Las not
since appeared, professionally in public.
Such, in brief, was the career of one of
the sweetest singers and most beautiful
women of the age. Whether ber life was
good or evil it behooves us not now to say.
If she was reckjess, frivolous, and gay,
she had, at least, a passionate and loving
nature, and died a suicide.

An Absurd Custom. Shortly after tha
secession of James 1, when Scotch gen-
tlemeu were beginning to feel at borne ia
London, Lord Harewood gave a dinner
party 'x which were invited a number of
courtiers and officers, both civil and mili
tary. After the bottle bad circulated S
few times, Gen. 8 , an English troop-
er and reckless bon rivant, arose and (aid:
Gentlemen, when I am in my cupa and
the generous wine begins to warm my
blood, I have an absurd custom of railing
sgainst the Scotch. Knowing my weak
ncft, I hope no gentleman in the compa
ny will take it amiss." Ha sat down, and
a Highland chief, Sir Robert Bleakie, of
Blair Atholl, pit aenting a front like an old
battle-worn tower, quietly arose and re
marked : " Gentlemen, when I am in mj
. . i
cups, ana tne ge.ierous wine oegius to
warm my blood, if I hear a man rail
against the Scotch I have an absurd cus
torn of kicking hm at once out of the
company. Knowing my weaknen I hope
no gentleman will take it amiss." It may
be needless to add that Gen. S did
not on that occasion suffer himclf to fol
low bis unusual custom.

HONOR THE SCISSORS.
The "American Newspaper Reporter
says "Mme peopie( ignorant ot wuat
good, editing is, imagine the getting up of
selected matter to bo the easiest work inv
the wjrld to do, whereas it is the nioeat
work that is done on a paper. If they
find the editor wiih scissors in hand, they
are sure to say, iEo ! that's the way you
get up original matter, eh V accompany
ing tiieir new and witty questions with aa
idiotic wink or smile. The facts are that
the interest, tlie morality, the variety and
usefulness of a papet depend, In no small
degree, upon its selected matter, and fey
men are capable' of the position who
would not themselves be able to write
many of the articles they selectet. A sen
sible ed rt or desires considerable- selected. -matter,
because he knows that one miqd

CHILDHOOD'S QUESTIONS,
Those parents ran the risk of losing
their children w ho put aside their trivial
