Deacon Jahiel. Deacon Jalrfel Braden was a solemn, industrious, unnsrht man. buti was as J A w kind as one well could be vvho had lived so far apart from his fellows as he had. z - In.hls youth hejiad been one of the rural dandies of the Region and the cblef beau of his native pown, driving the fastest horses and leading off af all the village sports, whether balls, qjiiltings, weddings or sleigh-rides. Wheu about twenty-five years old, however, a sudden blight had fallen on his spirits for which no one cOuld ac count. He had danced half the night In wild glee at a wedding, played gamps of all sorts, helped to serve the guests from bountifully-laden tables, kissed the bride, gave her as a wedding) present his best cow, with a white hearjtjshaped soot on her forehead, and then went home full of glee. Xext morning he looked as if fifty years had beeini added to his age. He now put himself to work earnestly lavinsr out cranberrv nieadows and rais- ing live stock. He withdrew jfrom his old companions as if the sight of them burnt his eyes, unless he could help one of them ; then he came out of hjia shell, but returned to It as soon as the emer gency was over. Some of the neighbors' thought his mind affected ; some said he had re pented giving Matilda Day the- cow he was so proud of, and others decjided that he meant to turn over a new lean having sown all his wild oats, and become a sober, settled man. Still morejwere the townsDeoule surprised when, some months' after, he joined thechiirch, and 'took up," as he said, "an walk." 1 i orderly If the saintly old Mother Braden knew the spring of these actions she herself. When questioned she- only re plied in her quiet way : j ' '.Rejoice with me that this, ray son who was lost is found; who waa is alive again;" I dead, Thus Jahiel moved on, cherishing and blessing his mother, and clearing and cultivating the hitherto useless land on the farm, till death left him and Ketury Perkins, his mother's life-long a helper, alone in the great broad farm-house. j His brother had married, gone West, made a great flourish in some patent business and failed. He came back after this and set up a store, and failed again .Then he went back to honest farming, twenty miles away. Here hej wearied for lack of the excitement of! trailing" aud died, leaving a verv helpless fam- ily. ' 1 Jahiel Braden was a man of ery few words, and was slow in uttering those few but when action was needed he was as prompt as anyone. He werU to the luneral in the blue swallow tail coat,' with gilt buttons and the samepuffvest he had on at his last dance. They were still his best. I As soon as the funeral was over, he I said to his sister-in-law : "I fear you have nothing to jlive on; come to the homestead as If it were your own, and bring up your girls to be use ful women. I'll send Timothy over nt'Xt week--with Star and Buck fbr ypir .goods. I'll come in the coven ; wagon lor youj all, and if there are an bills at the store I'll pay them. I'll ssb to the doctor and funeral; so drop tall.; care' from your mind and try to be pappy." Jahiel Braden had grown to bje-'a very' careless man, iii a certain sense of the word. Altliough neat and orderly in his person, in his house and on thtjfarm he had laid aside all the restraints) of soci ety. He came to the table in bjis shirt sleeves, and sometimes in his jstoeking feet. He went up-town and jeven to church with his pants tucked in his - cowhide boots. -j i Once hq so far orgot himself ks to put on a clean farn-frock on Sunday instead - Qrohday, laid,a goo cqat ofjmutton- tauow on hi3 boots, tucked his butternut-colored pants into them and In this Wight, took up the collection for by this time, he was a deacon. "TlliiS" was to the no small delight of the boys in the gallery, who were always glad for some orthodox subject for laughter during the time of service. Ketury Perkins was just as indepen dent of the world's opinion as was her master, and she did as many odd things by way of shocking its sense of propri ety as he did through absent-minded ness. -She more than .once presented herself at church in a clean sun-bonnet and calico sack, and enjoyed the staring of the people because, she had a black silk gown, a cashmere shawla straw4 "bonnet and a black lace veil at home. "as good as Miss Deacon Jones', any day!" ! You may be sure she did not particu larly like the idea of a lady coming to take her place, "with three citified girls full of airs." However, she was not consulted in the matter, and had too much good sense to throw herself out of a honie, so she made the best of the in vasion. : ' Deacon Jahiel had a great respect for good women, and from the hour that his brother's family came under his roof he donned his coat before coming to the table, and even went so far as to buy a pair of slippers. He threw open the long unused parlor and said to the girls, "Make yourselves at home there." He soon found there was a great lack in his establishment, by overhearing his nieces lament the piano they had out West. He never spoke of it but en gaged the minister's wife to go to town3, and select one for him. The first the music-hungry children knew it was brought into the house; ana still he never spoke of it. Indeed, he rarely spoke of anything at all. The family lived on thus very happily for several years, when all at once they noticed a great change in Deacon Jahiel. He began to whistle at his work, and to sing with the girls; he bought a new carriage Ketury described it as a "car riage like folkses carriages," he even got a violin and checker-board from the garret, and for the first time in twenty years played on them both with zeal aud interest. Passing down the main street of the village, one day, he saw a buxom girl at the window, and leaning over the fence he called out: "Martha, I hear there is a quilting coming off before long at your house." "Yes, sir ; the quilt is my own work a rising sun, with a square and compasss in the heart of it. Mother said if I ever got it done I should have a quilting just like those she used to have when she was young," replied the girl. "Ain't you going to invite me, Mar tha ?" was the next question that startled the village girl. j ' "Why, deacon !" she cried. looking at the hitherto grave man, to discern if he had taken leave of his senses. "You go to a young folks' quilting?" "Certainly I will, if I'm asked," said the deacon, smiling. "Your mother can tell vou how expert I used to be at chalking the line, snuffing the candles, and throwing the apple-paring, in old times." Of course he got an invitation, and be fore many hours had elapsed it was noised abroad that Deacon Braden was going to dance at Mattie Borland's quil ting party, and that , the folks thought him going crazy. For the first time in a quarter of century the deacon set off for a trip to Boston, and, as Keturv said, "he came .back made all over new !" From the crown of his steeple-topped hat to the i sole of his tallow-soaked cowhides, he I was renewed In the outer man He had gone so far as to exchange hi3 ponderous silver watch for a gold one. In place of the porcelaini shirt-buttons with which Ketury had always adorned his cotton shirts, the deacon appeared with gold studs In a nicely-polished linen shirt bosom, gold sleeve buttons, and divers other worldly vanities, such as made a great stir in the Cedar Creek meeting house; but it was only because he wore such clothes ; others there had always dressed as well. You may be sure that the young folks stared at him as he sat thus, with Mr. and Mrs. Borland, look ing on at the sports of quilting; and the question was whispered from one to an other: I, , "What on earth has come over Dea con Jahiel?" They soon found that the autumn sun had come out in a brighter radiance than its earlier glory, and that life's Indian summer had come lor him, with bright skies, with flowers, and with the sing ing of birds in the heart. N One) morning, soon after this, the Deacon called his sister-in-law and her daughters into the parlor, and said : " I" have" a plan -to lay before you ; I shall need this house for myself now. You may-live beside me in the stone cottage Or Twill build you a little house in the. village." .""We will stay as pear you as we can ; but who is to take-my place r" asked the whlowjln amazement. ; ; "You remember Matilda Day, the girl to whom I gave my pet cow, Dilly, on her wedding day ? A few Weeks ago I heard of her for the first time inmany long years. Her husband was never worthy of her. He ran through her I property: and his own, 1 and then took her j into jthe wilderness, to liye, away from all privileges of schools,- bhurches i '1 I i. . - I . 1 i T .

Iiad forgotten that the world in itself, had any charms until you came here and brought the fresh air and sun shine to these dark, dull rooms. When you brpught the rose geranium in full bloom it took me back twenty-five years, whe ohe just like it stood in Matilda's window. The pongs which the girls sing are the; same she sung, newly arranged and with new names. "Not many weeks agb, I had, as you know, borne dealings with Carver, the Western man', who stayed over night with us. In talking with him, I said : " 'I jsuppose you never happened to meet with a man in your State named Wattcr son Blake?' . " 'Certainly I have, a thousand times. Did you know him?' he asked. "When I told him he was almost a townsman of mine, he said : 'jPoor fellow! he made a sad wreck of bright prospects. He died poor, three years ago, and left his wife and three boys in a sad condition ; but she is a jewei of a woman. Everybody loves her and all would have been glad -to help her, but; she had some idea of inde pendence.! which she wished to instil into the hearts of her boys. So she gave the! encumbered farm over to Blake's creditors, moved Into the next-town and set up a school for littie girls. "Before he went away the next morn ing, I idrew a check-for a hundred dol lars, and sent it to the boys 'from an old schoolmate of their mother's,' and resolved to devise some plan by which to start them' in life. "jTh'e, m'orei I thought of it the more I resolvpd that Matilda Day would make the world new for me yet ; anil I wrote and told hser so. Next month I am going West to bring heri and the boys home. I want you to stay with us' till you get a home oi your own. 1 can never De hankful enough for your coming to me It has bound broken the dreadful spell that me.l, and brought me back to live among others ; before I only, worked for them at arm's-length. Now that I lqve all the world more, my life will henceforth be of more service." ! The old stone cottage was; repaired and furnjshed before Deacon Jahiel set off on his momentous journey ; and the widow and her daughters, now nearly grown up, were rejoicing in the pros pect of a hew nefglibor and friend. Matilda Blake, although a j mature woman! of ! almost forty-four! years, brought back more sunshine than she had taken away from heruative place a quarter . of j a century before. Her anxieties and sorrows had softened and brightened the natural loveliness of her character and made her a blessing, not only to the farm, but also to the church and town, j I Indian! summer had indeed come to the deacon's hitherto clouded life, and his heart and his house were open afresh L to the whole world. He looked hence forth more leniently on the follies of the young arid more charitably on the errors of, those who had wandered from the right way. His voice, his features, gait indeed, the whole man ;were changetl from a solemn, unsy mpathizing bachelor! as he used to be regarded, to a genial husband, father and friend. There is nothing like a solitary life to fix a perpetual winter in the heart. There is nothing like a companionship with the gopd and true who need aid and sympathy, to bring back Rummer though it may be an Indian summer to the heart.! . ! ! JProKresslon. D r. Johnson would have been immor tal had he only written the following sentence, t which every young; person should; commit to memory and put in continual practice: "Life, to be worthy of a rational being, must always be in prdgression. JWe must always purpose to do more and , better than in times past. The, mind is enlarged and ele vatedby more purposes, though they end as they egin, by airy contempla ti'n.

Trie Spaniards, who were shrewd people ;in such matters, it is true, seem led to ap preciate the advantages of the island ; for they made a settlement here at a very early, period. "Old Town," a cluster of odd looking houses pn a bluff near its northern jend, still kjeeps alive the memory of the! swarthy Celtiberians whose names one may read on the moss grown and brier-wreathed'erosses in the ancient cemetery; but only the nucleus of thfe great city of the future exists In the pretty ; little town of Fernandina, with its three thousand inhabitants and its moderate business as a shipping port. In place of the orai ge-groves, olive orchards, vineyards, ajid market farmjs, which are to be, there stretches a waste of j "palmetto-scrub,?' pine-bar- rens and jungle-like "hammocks," to southern end of the island The deer and the raccoon are hunted where mil- lions of dollars' worth of fruit and veg etables ought to be growing.

"The farmers who were always com plaining when Corn law was In force have never been heard to complain sinci it was abolished." ; "Our laws must-be based upon free dom and justice,.' which bless alike him who!gives and him who takes."' ' . "The Westi India planters stole the labor with which grew their stqp&.'V 7Tjhe abolition of the duty on sugar has caused the quantities imported to be enormously increased and the price to be! in an extraordinary degree dimin ished." "Shffar has not vet been as chean as turnips, but is as cheap as flour; and its cheapness has added greatlv to the coirifort of families." "When there are two men running after tone master, wages go down; but when two masters are running after one nian wages go up." ' "Ii the present day everybody has a newspaper if he chooses to possess him self of it; and a newspaper now conr tains an accurate account of all that is going on in the world." j "The English, with nobody likely to attack them, are making 100-ton guns." "It will be for the parents of this generation to decide whether the next generation shall not be in advance of! this so far as education is concerned." "Class distinctions In every branch of our social life are being day by day abolished." j . - . ....... ... "At tins moment tnere are no con spiracies. Your workmen's club Is not a club to gdt uj? some movement against the laws ot the monarchy." "There were times since Queen Vic toria came to the throne when there was a great deal less of, honest and true loyalty than is to be found in the coun try at the present moment. "The influence of property, so far as it is a just influence, exists now, and is exercised now ;J and any exercise of it before the ballot was conferred wa3 an exercise which was a tyranny upon whom it was exercised." frhe grand, noiseless triumphs of peace find but scanty memorial at the hands of history; blood shines more: upon her pages." n i f The workman gf tngUnd Is now' tic longer a human machine; he Is a ruler of men and a joint ruler of many naf tions." - i "Depend upon it, if you support the school the school will compensate you." Down in a Coal Ulne. The difficulty of obtaining coal at greater depths than those now reached is more formidable than is commonly supposed. It is well known that at a depth of fifty feet below the surface oif the earth English geologists mark i zone of equable temperature, the therj mometer there showing flfty degrees UD3ervauon snows, too, .mat this tem- perature increases at the uniform rate of one degree for every fifty-five feet; so that at the depth of 1,700 feet the temperature is about seventy-eighlt degrees. One mine in England, 1,646 feet deep, is,it is said, already worked to great disadvantage, owing to the inabil ity of the miners to endure the steady heat. In the colliery the shaft is 2,37C feet deep, and the temperature is ninety-eight degrees, or blood heat, and there prolonged labor.ls Impossible. The limit of profitable ruining, therefore, ip believed to be about 1,700 feet, and at 1,000 additional feet mining is imprac ticable. At the depth of 4.000 feet the temperature would.according to this, be not less than 122 degrees, and at 10,000 feet it would be at the boiling point, if not higher. J Tb Walrus. A question has arisen among whale men as to the possible early extermina tion 6f the ,walrus. Probably not less than fifty thousand walru3es, with their young, were last year killed and de stroyed by our Arctic whalemen. Since the whale has been driven north, the walrus has become the main reliance of the natives for their food, clothing, boots, and dwellings; as he has also be come to others the chief object of com mercial attention. At the present rate he must soon be exterminated, or like the whale driven almost out of reach The question, therefore, Is: Shall the whalemen keep on taking the walrtU, and eventually starve and depopulate these Arctic shores ? To provide against the extinction of the seal, o .wmcn about 500,000" were captured lastye&r, the Legislature of Newfoundland has passed a law forbidding vessels in thit trade to leave port before the 12th of. March, that being the average date of the parturition of the seals. The young ones come to maturity in a marvellous-, lyihrlef period. Thus two advantages are. gained.; the old seal are not slain as heretofore, with their young unborn, .and the voung ones, unfit to he taken. are left for another year. None are so fond of secrets as those who jdo not mean to keep them; such persons ' covet secrets as a spendthrift does money, for the purpose of circula latlon.
