What shall he the cn r these
Things!
When another life is added
To the heaving turbid mass:
When another breath of being
Stains Creation's tarnished glass;
When tho first cry weak and piteous
Heralds long-enduring pain.
And a soul from non-cxistenco
Springs that no'cr can dio again;
When tho mother's passionato welcome
Sorrow-like bursts forth in toars
And tho sire's self gratulation
Prophesies of futuro years
It is well we cannot sco
What tho end shall bo.
"When across the infant-features
Trembles tho faint dawn of mind :
When tho heart looks from the windows
Of tho eyes that wcro so blind ;
When then incoherent murmurs
Syllablo each swaddled thought.
To the fond car of affection
With a boundless promise fraught
Kindling great hopes for to-morrow
From that dull uncertain ray
As by glimmering of tho twilight
Is foreshown tho perfect day
It is well wo cannot sec
What tho end shall bo.
When the boy upon the threshold
Of his all-comprising home
Tarts aside the arm maternal
That unlocks him ere he roam ;
When tho cauvass of his vessel
Flutters to tho favoring gales
Years of solitary cxilo
Hid behind its sunny sails;
When his pulses beat with ardor
And his sinows stretch for toil
And a hundred bold emprises
Lure him to that eastern soil
It is well wc cannot seo
What the end shall be.
When the youth beside tho maiden
Looks into hercredulous eyes;
When the heart upon tho surface
Shines too happy to be wise:
He by speeches less than gestures
Hintcth what her hopes expound.
Laying out tho waste hereafter
Like the enchanted garden ground ;
He may palter so do many;
She must suffer so must all;
Both may yet world-disappointed
This lost hour of lovo recall
It is well wc cannot sec
What tho cud shall bo.
When the altar of Religion
Greets tho expectant bridal pair;
When the vow that lasts till dying
Vibrates on the sacred air;
When man's lavish protestations
Doubt of after-change defy.
Comforting tho frailer spirit
Bound his servitor for aye ;
When beneath Love's silver moonbeams
Many rocks in shadow sleep
Undiscovered till possession
Shows tho dangers of tho deep
It is well wo cannot seo
What tho end shall be.
Whatsoever is beginning
That is wrought by human skill.
Every daring emanation
Of the mind's ambitious will ;
Every first impulse of passion
Gush of love or twiagc of hate;
Every launch upon tho waters -
Wide horizoncd by our fato;
F.very venture in iho chances
Of life's end oft dtsperato game
Whatsoever bo our mofirc
Whatsoever bo oar aim
It is well wo cannot soo

Says a highly esteemed correspondent
whose praise is in all the churches "hi
training for the ministry we greatly need
the theological school with which we com
menced. I mean the circuit svstcm. In
that school our best preachers wcr reared.
Let usrclurn to it. Our young men and
s we of our oldrr brethren who perhaps
. cvr.ur no :u jor pastor? charge? need
ii.w Be this hh it mav. Wc doubt not
iL.i ... ... ..
m many wotua dc more usclul ns iliner-
I
-Wjaborere than settled pastors. Also we
wk a greater number would be supported
Wd wholly employed in the ministry of the
irerd. Operations could be extended over
a much larger territory. If so it would
certainly be well to return to it where it
hftjibeca departed from. The subject ccr-
Umly deserved the attention of the several-
Presbyterians. If the gospel is not car- j
ricd to portions of the great Valley of the
West in this way it is not likely that it
will in any other. Might it not be well
for the Assembly's Missionary Board to
have the matter under consideration with a
view to present to the whole church a gen-
eral and well arraigned svstcm of Home
Missionary operations combining in itself
the greatest amount of co-operation and
efficiency.
Wc would not be understood as under-
valuing the labors of the settled pastoral
charge. These in our view arc indispensa-
ble. There should be as many settled pas
tors as possible. These wc should have.
and not be without our missionaries. I he
true policy of our church embraces both
pastoral and missionary operations.
If our candidates arc neither trained in
the old circuit school nor otherwise what
will be the result? It neither requires n
prophet to tell nor a ynukee to guess. As
a Theological school the circuit or home
mission district is not without its advanta-
ges. It husbands time and pecuniary re-
sources. It enables the student to acquire
theological capital and circulate it at the
same time obtaining his support by his la
bors. It devclopos bodily vigor and nn en-
ergy of character not acquired otherwise.
Those who graduate in the circuit Scmina-
ry do not regard the winds and clouds nor
spring from summer's heat nor winter's
cold. The' can bear crosses; labor and
faint not. Thcv cliccrfull v. exercise sclf-
dcnial and forego worldly case and plea-
sure. They do not wait for the church to
take them by the hand hold thorn up. and
lead them along grumbling and fault find-
ing if she docs not do it. They consider
themselves the servants of the church and
regard it as their duty to take her by the
hand and lead her onward in the work of
the iord whether in adversity or prosper-
ity. As they wend thoir way on their er-
rand of mercy over hill and dale mountains-
and rivcrcs or thread tnc rugged forests
broad and pathless prairies or pass over
cultivated plains; the have consecrated
their souls bodies and time to their mas-
ters cause. As thcv go fourth in their self
denying labors their hearts enlisted therein
now and then the big tears burst from eyes ;
but in these they experience unearthly
bliss. In their toils they cheerfully sing :
"No foot of land do I possess
No cottage in this wilderness
A poor way-faring man ;
I lodge awhile in tents below.
Or gladly wander to and fro.
Till I my Canaan gain.
"Nothing on earth I call my own
A stranger to tho world unknown
I all their goods despise;
I trample on their wholo delight
And seek a city out of sight
A city in tho skies."
USEFUL HINTS TO PUBLIC SPEAK-
ERS. It is a curious tact in the history of sound
that the loudest noises always perish on
the spot where they arc produced where-
as musical notes will be heard at a great
distance. Thus if wc approach within a
mile or two of a town or village in which
a fair is held we may hear very faintly
the clamor of the multitude but more dis-
tinctly the sound of the organs and other
musical instruments which are played for
their amusement. If a Cremona violin a
real Amatibe played by the side of a modern
fiddle the latter will sound much louder
than the formor; but the sweet brilliant
tone thcA-i.'. will be heard at a dis-
tanc ' the other . .nnot reach. Dr.'Young
on the authorit) of Dr. Durham states
that at Gibralter the human voice is heard
at the distance of ten miles. j.Jt Is a well
known fact that the humrn voice may be
heard at a greater distance than that of any
her animal.
''n it- when the cottng- r in the woods
r on the open plain v. hes to call her
j.-battd. who is workir at a distance she
iocs not shout but ' ' ss her voice to a
smiMcd key which she hnows from habit
andb that means rr-.u cs his car; the
' lo-idm roar of the larf - lion could not
onotratc so far. "Ti i ropcrty of music
tlio human voice ' .-a the author "is
kinglv shown in tht thedrals abroad.
re the muss is entirely performed in mu-
tl sounds and become audible to everv
otee however placed in the remotest
t of the church; whcicas if the same
uul had been read the sounds would not
uc travelled beyond th precincts of the
.oir." Those orators w ho arc heard in
gc assemblies most distinctly and at the
-atcsl distance arc those who by modu-
ing the voice render it more musical.
md speakers arc seldom heard to advan-
Jtirke's voice is said to have been a sort
loftv cry which tended as much as the
rmaht3' of his discourse m the House of
ommons to send the members to their
dimirr. Chatham's lowc.it whisper was
distinctly heard; "his im Idle tones wcr
v.-eet and beautifully varied" says a wri-
ter ?n describing the or: tor; "when he
raised his voico to its highest pitch the
house ras completely filled with the vol-
ume of sound; and the effect wos awful
except when he wished to r-hcer or nnimato
and then he had spirit-stirring notes which
were perfectly irresistal 1 The terrible
Jiowever was his peculiar power. Then
the house sunk before him; still he was
dignified and wonderful as was his elo-
quence it r.s attended i th this important
effect that ;? -Cssi . very one with a
ct.nvu.Uou tl-r: -.litre v. c.i something in him
finer even than his words; tnat the man
was greater infinitely greater than the
orator. Lotrper.
It was a pretty saying of a little boy
who Peeing two nestling birds picking at
each other inquired of his elder brother
what they were doing. "They arc quar-
relling" was tho answer. "No." rrnlind
the child "that cannot be thcv arc brothers."
