God mend his heart who cannot Teel 
The impulse of a holy zeal; 
And 3 ees not with his sordid eyes, 
The beauty of self-sacrifice! 
Though in the sacred place he stands, 
Uplifting consecrated hands, 
Unworthy are his lips to tell 
Of Jesus’ martyr miracle. 
Not to the swift nor to the sltoDg, 
The battles of the right belong! 
For he who stri fees for freedom, wears 
The armor of the captive's prayers; 
And nature proffers to his cause 
The strength of her eternal laws; 
While he whose arm essays to bind, 
And herd with common brntes his kind, 
Strives evermore at fearful odds 
With nature and the jealous gods, 
And dares the dread recoil which, late 
Or soon, their right shall vindicate.

Two years have passed since Minnie’s bri¬ 
dal. She and Anna were quietly conversing 
of the past, when Anna playfully asked “Is 
Ambition a remedy for love ?** 
And notwithstanding Anna’s roguish smile, 
Minnie replied, very candidly, “No, but it 
will keep those who love from a life of worth¬ 
lessness, unquiet and sorrow. Had it not been 
for God's blessing on my untiring efforts, aud 
ambition, I shudder to think what a poor, bar¬ 
ren life I should have led. God has been teach¬ 
ing and leading me through all, and He has 
rewarded me richly for every sorrow. Had I 
never been brought to Walter, or known of 
his love, my days would soon have passed, and 
then I should have gone to my last reward, to 
dwell forever with Him who doeth all things 
well.” 
Her husband entering the room one after¬ 
noon, in time to hear the word “ Ambition,” 
asked Minnie “ if she did not regret she had so 
much ?” 
“ No, since it has taught me a valuable lesson, 
aud given me the means of gratifying a noble 
man's taste for music. She led the way to the 
piano, and after playing a touching prelude, 
their voices blended in unison, while singing a 
sweet, tuneful melody: 
“ When sorrow’s billows o’er me rise, 
And dark its surges swell ; 
To Him I'll lift my tearful eyes 
Who doeth all things well."

Minnie, without waiting for any explana¬ 
tion, followed her footsteps to the spot, where, 
pale and apparently lifeless, she beheld Wal¬ 
ter Wallice. One startled, eager look she 
gave him, and exejaimed, “My God, is it pos¬ 
sible?” Then, with surprising presence of 
mind, she raised and supported his drooping 
head, and busied herself in trying to restore 
him to life. A physician was instantly sum¬ 
moned, who arrived just as the feeble breath 
returned. § He seemed much agitated, and in¬ 
quired how it happened, and was informed that ( 
Mr. Wallice, feeling much better than usual, 
dismissed his attendant for a few hours, and, 
under some sudden impulse, had arisen and at¬ 
tempted to cross the room to the open window. 
The effort was too great lor him, and he sank 
unconscious to the floor. The matron, passing 
his room, heard the fall, listened a moment. 
A Scotch minister was once busy catechising 
his young parishioners before the congregation, 
when lie put the usual first question to a stout 
girl, whose father kept a public house. “ What 
is your name ?” No reply. The question hav¬ 
ing been repeated, the girl replied;—“ Nane o’ 
yer fun Mr. Minister, ye ken my name weel 
enough. D’ye no say when you come to our 
house on anight, • Bet, bring me a drink o’ ale 1 ’ ” 
The congregation, forgetting the sacrednoss of 
the place, put on a broad grin, and the parson 
lookc-d daggers. 
to violent periodical aDneks of catarrh, marked by a 
highly inflamed condition or the lining membrane of the 
cavities of t he head, producing a most distressing species 
of headache for days at a time, wholly Incapacitating 
me from burincss, and during the parolysms confining 
me to the bed. In some instances the Inflammation has 
extended lo the teeth, occasioning toothache; to the 
throat, producing hoarseness and partial loss of voice; 
and twice It has so affected the left eye as to confine me 
for a month or more to a darkened room. These attacks 
have been accompanied by strong ffcbrilo symptoms: by 
stoppages of the head, and in the first stages by watery 
discharges from the nose, and subsequently becoming 
acrid and yellow, and towards the close of tho attack 
becoming bloody and purulent. I have tried medicines 
of almost every kind; external applications to the head, 
such as camphor, ginger, hot vinegar, snuffs of some half 
dozen kinds, and other catarrhal preparations, together 
with Internal remedies such as alternatives, cathartics 
and emetics. The <r have produced no change in the oc¬ 
currence or character of tbe disease, and in most cases, 
with little or uo temporary relief. 1 lmd come at length 
to believe the disease to bo practically beyond cither 
cure or material alleviation. 
Under these circumstances •' was led, some live mouths 
ago, to make a trial of Dr. LlghthUTs treatment. His 
method at once approved itself to myjudgiueuf, as sim¬ 
ple, philosophical and likely to lie effective. Notwith¬ 
standing the disadvantages under which he labored, In 
dealing with a disease of such long standing, aggravated 
by nervous dehtllty and dyspepsia, and constantly in¬ 
duced by the accidents of professional labor. I found the 
treatment reaching the disease as It had never been 
reached before, and producing Mich a modification and 
alleviation of its character as 1 had supposed impossi¬ 
ble- 1 chronicle the result thus. Although t have bees 
situated several limes so that i should formerly bave be¬ 
lieved a sever attack of my catarrh Inevitable, 1 have 
escaped thus far; the symptoms pf threatened attack 
have been very light, aud have yielded to the remedies 
employed by Dr. Ughthill, without the need of recourse 
to the old hot fermentations or emetics; and the dis¬ 
charges from tho head have resumed tho original and 
natural condition. I count upon a complete cure. That 
I bave been able, however, to obtain so material a relief 
Is to me a cause of grit It tilde. In that alone, 1 am re¬ 
paid for wbatever the treatment may have cost me. 
I make this statement unsolicited, as a means or ac¬ 
knowledging my obligation to Dr. LighibiU’s method of 
treating catarrh, and w ith, ii^gw to aid any who may 
have suilered from that disease, In forming u Just opin¬
