A Child's Story.

With rosy cheeks, and golden hair, And joyous smile, just turn d of three, He came and said that he must tell A tale to me. ‘‘ Three little people,” so he spoke, ‘‘ Went out to seek for God-above, And two of them were Faith and Hope, The other Love, They wonder’d near, they wander'd far, But never found the God they sought, And Faith and Hope were lost and gone And came to nought.” { asked of Love, and where was he, ‘Oh, mother, he is strong to bear ; Ele struggled on to God at last - He now is there.

And I must go, and I must play. He danecd away with laughing eyes, Blue as the glacier’s sapphire depths, Or summer skies. But in my brain the baby tale, Reiterated o’er and oer, As if it were the last true word Of this sad hour. Oh, hope deferr'd ! oh, faltering faith ! Weak forces doom’d to drop and die. Not yours to find man’s mystic God, " Now or eternally.

In Love, as yet but faintly known, Lies all the future of oar kine, Cling to him, that on some far shore, Faith, Hope, ye find.' —Maemillan’s Magaziiu

The Crown Prince of Germany’s son, Prince Frederick William Albert Vic- tor, is likely, dit-on, to pay a six months’ visit to the United States to confirm the friendly relations between the two coun- tries, and “ especially to put a damper on Socialism.”’

The Empress Eugenie, on her recent visit to Oxford, visited the rooms of many of the under-graduates. The scion of a noble house, whose deu was thus invaded had the walls hung round with Republican pictures, which drew forth a jocular en. quiry from her Majesty if such was his tendencies. “Yes mademe” was the simple and candid reply.

Mr. Henry Van Wart, who died in New York on the 4th instant, aged seventy- one years, was a newphew of Washington Irwin. His father, Henry Van Wart, of Westchester, a descendant of one of the captors of Major Andre, married Ivring’s youngest sister, Sarah, and settled in business at Birmingham, England. Ir- ving frequently visited his relatives there, and the gentleman who has just died ac- companied him on a visit to Paris im- med ately after the revolution of July,1830, which raised Louis Phillippe to the throne.

Mr. Beecher will probably start for California, where he is to lecture this season, on Monday next. Last Sunday morniog he announced the closing of Ply- mouth church thus :—‘ I am not a smoker, but I have observed the gentlemen who smoke meerschaum pipes delight to see them colouring, I have something of this feeling toward the church. [| like to see it getting colour from use ; it pleases me to see the carpets wearing out and the pews getting reasonably soiled. Such is now the condition of this building, and after the service of next Sunday morning it will be closed for repairs. When it is reopened everything in it, I, trust, will be new——except the congregation.”

The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.

There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has been caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

Dr. MELVIN’S CapsicuM Porous PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. Al) other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.

Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as a medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tage in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convinced of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for

yR. MELVrN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate person to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will sell hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for DR. MELVIx’s CAPSI- cUM Porous PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or

$2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, to

any address in the United States or Canadas. MANUFACTURED BY THE
