la my ear, Gethsemane
Ah. ray baffled heart has fasted
Till it faints with hungry wain;
Yet if Thou will feed me, Savior,
All my loss I count as gain.
Humbly let me kneel before Thee,
With affection crucified,
• With my spirit, contrite, broken,
Healed of all its human pride.
Keep my tongue from evil speaking.
Keep my ears from foolish praise,
Leep my heart from Satan’s whispers,
Keep my feet in wisdom’s ways.
Thou, who seest all my weakness,
Thou, who knowest 1 am dust.
Pity me. and keep my treasures
All untouched by *‘Moth nnd rust.”
When thou wert ahungered Savior,
Satan whispered in thy ear;
Now unto my human wcaknes
11c is standing very near.
And when in the cold, blind darkness,
Cries my hungry heart for bread,
Close the tempter drawn unto me—
Offers Wayside stones iustead.
Kingdoms of the world he shows me.
Fame, and wealth, and human pride,
Tempts ine to forget the anguish
Of the holy crucified.
Ah, the Kingdoms spread before me.
Koval castles in the air,
Gleaming turrets full of grandeur.
Hidden chambers of despair.
Lead me. Father, for I stumble,
Satan’s hand is very near,
And a broken reed he offers
While he whispers in my car.
Bids me know Thou art above me,
Far beyond my human cry;
Taunts me with my desolation;
Bids me curse Thee, Lord, and die.
Close and closer, oh, my Savior,
'•In the shadow of Thy wing”
Let my wearied spirit nestle
With the peace that faith can bring!
FATHER AND MOTHER.
Tho’ the world may o’ershadow my soul with
care,
And outward siens of affection .suiother;
Yet within my heart of hearts I'll wear a
An undying love to lather and mother.
Highly esteemed and forever dear ■>
Are kind words front a sister and brother;
But more dear and esteemed, I hold by far,
Tho approbation of father and mother.

A British View or American
Finance.
From the London Times ]
British finance has labored to releive and
almost entirely to exempt industry and
material In the United States they have
to endure even more then their equal share
pf taxation The obvious remedy is to pro
ceed on thft British model as far as possi
ble. for it is just possible there may bo
circumstances tendering imitation exceed
ingly diflk-ult. However, u good deal may
bo done ir. this direction. Tho minute
ness with which American finance strikes
at all the iagiredients necessary in work
and wanuftcr.ture produce mischiefs cut e!
propoitiou to the gain It leads to adul
terations, lad substitutes, bad workman
phip, and to tho introduction of tho. re
fuse of the European markets. An ad
valorem duty >.tu drugs, for example, is an
encouragement to the cheapest and worst
article, v-hi oh is a serious matter wheu
life aud health are in question. The con
traband trade is so great that the market
^ is fed with smuggled goods aud tho cus
tom houses are corrupted—it is impossi
ble to say how high in the service. Tho
tariff is breaking down as n source of rev
enue aud the hulk of the taxes cannot be
raised. The objects are a return to . gold
currency, the establishments of credit in
order to the conversion of the debt to a
lower rate of interest, and such a cheap
cning of material aud relieving of indus
try as shall enable the American manufac
turer to compete with the foreign in the
market of the world. These ends are re
mote for the present, hardly even in view
but till ilicy are attained America cannot
fee! that she has the full command of her
own resources, or that she can do anything
which threatens an addition to burdens
and perplexities already beyond endurance.
TV hat, then, is the remedy? It is to enable
American industry to help itself, by put
ting it, as much as possible, on an equal
uy wuu iureigu. .1 ms cuu uniy uo uuna
by giving it au abundant and cheap sup
ply of raw material of articles in tbe ear
ly stages of manufacture, and of every
thing which may be necessary to man
ufacture Within a short time we have
struck from the tariff many hundreds of
articles the taxatiou of which led to more
trouble and evasion than they were worth.
The process Was hardly logical, for in strict
justice small quantities may as well be tax
cd as large Hut finance is not a matter
of justico so much as of convenience or of
necessity, and it can at least afford to spare
whatever it pleases. The Americans must
^ gjvo up their pleasing dream, or rather
their fantastic fiction, of perlect financial
equality. They cannot tax everybody
and everytliing-equally. if they will sub
mit to tax what they can by rougher rules
than those of abstract justice, they will
find themselves more just in the end.

A Winter Funeral.
I To Bury a frieivd in winter is a kind of
trial that connect* strange inward emo
| tious of feelings which it is dificult to mas
j ter. YVe have cleared away the snow, and
hewn a passage down through the solid pave
: meut of the frost, and thou in that inhos
' pitablc place we come to bury our depar
i ted; he it child, or wife, or mother, or much
loved friend, our Jicart shudders in con
vulsive chill at the forlorn last offices we
j are come to perform. While our feeling
is protesting, thesolemnity, so-called, goes
on, and before we have gotten our own
! consent the “tribute of respect is ended.
| The frored chips of earth, loosened again
j by blows, are piled on the loved one's
■ rest, and we turn to go- ‘‘Wilt it storm
to night? The wind, alas! is howling even
; now in the trees, and the sleeting has al
ready begun O God, it shall not be!
YY'e were going to be fools, we sec, hut
i now the spell is broken. Y ur departed
j is not in that gravo and scorn to say our
! farewell over it. I,ct the snows fall heavy
I if they will, and the winds rage pitiless
J and wild above, ours it shall be to thank
i thee, Father, Lord of the warmer clime,
j that our dead-one lives with thee. Prac
I tically, almost nothing will more surely
i compel a faith in immortality, even if one
! chances to be unrelieved, than to bury a
j friend in winter. And, as a matter of
fact, it is not in the fresh, unbursting

STAR SHUTTLE
SEWING MACHINES!
for durability, simplicity and beauty,
stands without a rival. The stitch is alike
on both sides of the fabric sewed, and will
m>t rip or ravel. The following facts hav
ing been demonstrated', are given as reasons 1
why the STAR MACULNE shftutd be prefer-j
red to any other:
1. Their great simplicity.
‘J. It is impossible for them to get out ol
adjustment during proper usage.
8. They are of great capacity, and will
stitch, hem. fell, braid, bind, cord and gather
without basting.
4. They have an adjustable press or foot
to hold the work; and they sew equally well
tlie lightest and heaviest fabrics.
5. They w 11 sew over the heaviest seams 1
without changing the tension or breaking the ;
finest thread.
0. They use a straight noodle—curved ones I
are liable to break.
7. The needle has a perpendicular motion.
This is absolutely necessary for heavy work. !
8. They run easily, and are almost noise- '
less.
THE STAR SHUTTLE is emphatically a
first class Machine in every respect, and,
what is most of all, it is offered at h lower !
price than any other good tnachiuc in the j
market, further particulars furnished on
