(St. Louis Republic). The course which an earthquake rana is usually very rapid. From the in3taut when the first shock wp felt at Lisbon to the period when all was over, and nearly 30,000 people killed, not more than two minutes had elapsed. Usually from ten to thirty seconds elapse between the first and last shocks of severe earth quake, lijt this lightning speed is not always the earthquake's mode of tjavelling. While Caraca in Venezuela was almost to Ullv destroyed and 12,000 people were killed in less than twenty sec onds by the great shock of 1812, there are cases in which constantly recurring shocks nave lasted fur weeks.

There Was Luck in it, A man in Bremen, who was pas sing an idle hour, sat down in h small park. While there he saw a four-leave 1 clover and at once picked it as an emblem of pood luck. The nest moment he was arrested and taken before the authorities for breaking a rule forbidding visitors to touch anything ia the park. In vain he protsed that he was about to sail fur America, that his baggage was aboard the steamer and that it sailed in two hours . Before he could settle the matter and pay his fine the steamer had sailed. The boat was wrecked and a number of the passengers drowned but thanks to the four-leaved clover our belated traveller wa3 saved. A True Reflection. (Wilson Mirror). The Democratic papers of the State are not opposed to the farm era. They are not inlmicfble to their interests. They are with them heart and soul and miad and body in any movement that can redound to their interest and lead to the betterment of their condition. That which oppresses or hurts the farmer neressarily oppresses and hurts the papers, for the two are so inseparably associated and their interests are so lodissolubly i terwoven that an in jury lo one has its corresponding afect upon the other. When the farmers prosper the papers prosper. When the farmers snirr with op pression, the papers also feel tie burden. When misfortune comes to one the other gropes amid its shad ows. And when the sunlight of prosperity brightens up the counten ances of the farmers the faces of the uewspapor men grow resplendent in the lustre of their beaininiz.

"Every race," says a writer, "which lias deeply impressed itself oa the human family fias been the represen tative of some great idee, one or more, which ha3 given direction to the nation's life and form to its ciyi lization. Among the Egyptians this seminal idea was life, among the Persians it was light, among the Hebrews it was purity, among the Greeks it was beauty, and amoDg the Romans it was law.'' The Anglo-Saxon is the champion of the two grand ideas spiritual Christianity and civil liberty. Two ideas beautifully linked together by the cords of nature and made doubly indissoluble by the glorious laurels that crowned the efforts of the great race that proclaimed them its guid ing stars. From the earliest eyents'in his history we see the Anglo-Saxon dis playing those haughty, daring, in vincible yet noble traits of character which were imparted to hi3 nature by the wild, rugged, and stormy country from which he came. At eyery step in his onward progress they haye characterized him in sub lime efforts to maintain his freedom of thought, his freedom of speech, and bis freemdom of action. When his simple, crude, yet lofty concep tions of a divinity were hampered and bent into rigid formality by the imperious Koman pentiff, with his all-grasping ambition for conquest and subjugation, his firm convictions and daring spirit rebelled against the authors of his nijaatije. The great reformation of the sixteenth cer.tiry was net b accider' origi nated among a Teutonic r-tther that) a Lutin people; it was the tire of, liberty burning in the Saxon heart that flamed up against the absolu tjism of the pope. The Analo-Saxon'd love for civil liberty, has unflagging efforts to se cure it, and the heroic manner in which he has always defended it have made it in its loftiest and pur est meaning synonymous with his name. To some, like the Swis?, it uao been permitted by the sufferance of utihborsj other?, as the French, Dave made sad and futile experi ments with it, but the people whose lovo for liberty has foq tt, and whose 2 ;ni us f.r self-government has pit served it, is pre-eminent and alone the Aoglo-Saxou. The noblest races of the world have always been lovers of liberty. That love ran strong in the eaily German blood, and has profoundly influenced the instltu Hons of all the branches of the great German family, but it was left for the Anglo-Saxon branch fully to re cognizi the right of individual liber- ty of achon and formally to declare it the foundatoon stone of govern ment. The Anglo Saxon's noble courage and heroic allegiance to his convic tions have marked at almost regular intervals the varied history of Eng land with crimson stains of fratrici dal wars. The unvarying tendency of his free and dauntless spirit re specting authority, but resisting its abuse, has been to look over beyond the circumscribed sphere of his ac tion within which he was hell bv the monarchy and aristocracy of England to that long coveted Utopian ideal where the fruits and rewards of his lofty ambition and unconquer able energy might flourish under the benign influence of democracy. Ac tuated thus by the purity of hisprin ciples and chafing under the discon tent of the rapidly augmenting and painful intrusions upon bis lib erty, he makes before the admiring gaze of the world the grandest move oi his history. Blading farewell to his over-exacting raothr country, he lohl'y bears the st-.r of empire west ward acd plants Ins banner embla- zoned with its lofty duplex motto upon the trackless wilds of America. It is cow that we see him leap with a bound into the full splendor and might of his genius es he rolls back the cartain upon the grandest epoch iu the world's history. His wonderful geniup, his all conquering enterprisp, anl his love for liberty, equality, and fraternity, invigorated bv the promptings of bright expec tancy and quickened by the light of his ambition breaking now through the enveloping cloud3"of tyranny j nil raotoinf Vo hnrr? n o . U Jal and unexampled transforma tion of the trackless wilds of Amer ican cootmeot into the grand, grow ing, living monument which to-day sings the praises of his greatness. Followiog the dlyioc command givea to the iomates of E!en to umultiplj and replenish the earth and subdue it,'' he breaks in upoj the solemn stillness of a mighty contiaent that cad lain shrouded in obli?ion for conntlebs centuries; spreads the lij;ht of a cbrisnan religion over its barba rous wilds; replaces the warwboop of the roaming savage with the merry sounds of industry and civilization ; converat a region of trackless forests into fields of waving grair; replace" the lonely wigwam with magnificent cities of wealth and beauty, and rears upon the hunting grounds of the ignoranl red man a povcrnment which stands a victor over past at tempts and the moiel for fature e mulation. Truly has the Anglo Saxon verified the poetical phrase, "Time's noblest offspring is her last.' His progress has more than trans cended that of the fabled god of the ancients , who, beginning his morn ing journey in the east and driving his flaming chariot through the sky , dipped his glowing axle in the wes tern waves. Behind and around him have sprang op all the bensions of a high civilzation, nor will they disappear beneath the waves of that placid ocean which be has reached in hi3 onward march, for furnishing as America docs the nmsing o- unit" ing link in the great chain of advanc ing civilizntiod from the cast toward the west, she will inevitably be the grand pivot on which is to turn the destiny of the world. From within her broad boundaries, brilliant with the achievements of Anglo-Saxon geniQS and still moving proudly on ward in progreep, ciyilizatiou, and power under the electric touch of bis hand and brain, will eventually raui- ; te the controlling inlluenc-s of all iatio:.s ui; a governments. j When the eleamini' cohorts of' France were drawn up in battle ar ray before the Mamelukes and under th shadow of the pyraraiis, NapoN eon, catching a glorious thought from the towering sarcmit3 of the latter, sail to his soldiers "Remem ber that from yonder heights forty centuries look down upon you.'' The Anglo-Saxon, standing to-day on the pyramid top of opportunity and re spon8ibillt5 to which a glorious dess tiny lias exhalted him , look3 down on forty centuries and stretches forth his hand into the future with the power to mold the destinies of un born miliiont", and as he sweep3 vie lorioualy onward with the closing years of the nineteenth century to the sublime culmination of his pow er ; the grand chorus of the last act in the great drama of the world's westward progress is sung in the language of Milton and Shakespeare, and the noble propLscy of Tennyson is finding its fulfilment in his extend ing dominion and influence.

(Durham iun.) Among Line graduates from a Bos ton school this year wi a jouog woman who had completed a coarse frankly taken in preparation for matrimony. Like many girls who make society amusements thier chief existence, this young woman did not realize the deficiencies in her education until she bad won the friendshlp'ana love of one who was her superior m intellectual acqaire ments. With the realization of Ler ignorance came the determination to study for self-improvement. Enter ing as a pupil a well-known school for girls, she Wok courses in litera ture, philosphy and oter studie which would enable her to write and speak with accuracy and would teach her the methods of thought. She entered classes of political econ omy and studied the newspapert under competent direction. Urging her teacher to correct all imperfec tions in her speech and manner, she made constant effort to attain the standard which might bring her nearer to an tqaallty with her future husband. The struggle was not easy. There were trials of pride in studying with girls of a more youth ful age; there were many moments of mortification from the exposure of her Ignorance. Determination to succeed won its usual reward. The society gill , whose bright mind had been eclipsed by the routine of pleas ure , became renowned in the school as one of the most earnest end satis factory pupils. When she graduates this yesr into the- refined home that has bee -u pr- ; rat:.on for her she will meet her husband upon an equal it" and entertain his friend3 with a feeling of cheerful confi ienee. She says that the wholo world seems more stable since she has been sure that her sentences arc grammatical and her pronunciation according to the best authorities. "A Little Nonsense."

Some months afterward she reap peared with a man whom the intro duced as her husband. He bad come back a converted man. On comparing notes wo found that the very day on which we bad prayed for his conversion he had stumbled upon a stray copy of one of my sermons. He read it. The truth went to hi" heart.
