SERMON STOPPED SCENE IN 1831. -A A remarkable episode in a public religious service once occurred while the clergyman was preaching from the text: "Is , it well with thee? ' It was a little church in Yorkshire, England; in the year 1831. The minister was a good maiij withno little gospel power in his heart and manner, and he made it solemnly plain to the auditory that the Saviour was present,- looking into their thoughts with kind inquiry, and testing the spirit of every one. "Is it well with thee?" "Is it well with" theer Sud denly an exclamation was heard from one of the pews, ama boy twelve years old, who had been intently listening, fell on his knees, and began to weep and pray. A strange thrill ran through the congregation, and manv rose to tneir ieet. Tile minister paused in his sermon, and all attention was nreted on the kneeling boy. Every body knew little Tommy, for he belonged to one of the oldest Yorkshire families, and his an- cesrors ot larnsiey Had won the arms ofa baronbt. He was a Drignt,- gittea hoy, now six years mother less, but carrying ! 1. jit t nuns neart tne lnoeiioie im pression of his mother's earlv religious teachings. The hon est Yorkshire people felt too deeply the elfect of the sermon to inisunderstand i Tommy's emotion. They did' not think he was drazv. The minister did not. "Let us pray," he said. for he savv more need of prayer than preaching at a moment when before men and an gels a young soul iirst spoke its want. "The whole congregation at once assumed the attitude of devotion. Many strong and loving petitions went up to God for the young boy of whom, like Samuel, Hehad called in his own tabernacle. The scene uvas a strantre one mat suauen prayer-meeting in the middle of seriiron time. The prayers were answered too. Tommy rose from his knees with a radi ant face. Thenceforth the zeal o a divine anointing was on him. For the next eight years he continued to give increasing proof of a Christian spirit, and Christian zeal, and rare and liannv titnes for winnin Z souls. AVhen very voung he was .li censed to -preach. At the age of twenty he left his native hind and came to tha United States Since1 then he has not neglected the gift that is within him.

They tell a good joke on Dr. York that took place at King's Creek when York was canvass--ing alone. The inconsistent Doctor was pouring hot shot into the Democrats quite re gardless, and aftert awhile he pitched into Hendricks with out gloves. Presently a little dried up Wilkes county man asked him if he did not vote for Hendricks in 187G. Y'ork was completely nonplussed. Atlirsthe attempted to deny voting for him, but after squir ming and twisting, said he reckoned if Hendricks was on the ticket with Tilden he maybe voted , for-him Kews and Vbserrer. ; "Bright, give me an of mv existance; M saiJour "devils m h sweetheart. i she s slanted her rT" between his 1 1 i and made hun see lilinds, and Actions of SEPTEMBER, 19, 1884.

The investigations of the An thropometria committee of the British association have made more of less clear several inter esting facts respecting the rate oi growtn oi tne two sexes. The j)eriod of most rapidgro wth is from birth to live years of age, and then both sexes grow alike, the girls being a little shorter and lighterman boys, grow a little faster than the girls,, but from, ten to lifteen years the girls grow.the fastest, and at - between eleven and a half and fourteen and a half years old, are actually taller, and from, twelve and a half to fifteen and a half are heavier llian the boys. The boys, how ever, take the lead between lifteen and twenty years, and grow at first rapidly; but after wards slower, and complete f hir n-mw-tli nt nlnt. rvc.nt- three years of f age, . and attain their full stature at about the twentieth year.

Some people estimate the abil ity of a periodical and the tal ent of its editor by the quanti ty of its original matteix It is comparatively an easy task for a frothy writer to, string out a column of wonts upon any and all subjects. ' His ideai may flow in one weak, washing, evellasting flood, and the com mand of his language may en able him to string them, togeth er like buncheaoi onions, and yet his pdper may be but a meagre ami ioor concern. In deed the mere writing' part of editing a newspaper is a small portion of the work. The care and time employed in selecting is far more important and the fact of a good editor is shown more by his selections i than anything else, J and that we know, is half theljattle. But, we have saitL an editor ought to be estimated, his lalor un deistooi and appreciated by the general conduct of his. pa per its tone, its uniform con sistent course, aims, manliness, its propriety and its dignity.
