,A SOXG FGX XEV.-YEAR'S EVE.
The fire-light glows upon the hearth ;
Come, gather round, kind friends!
To night the New Year h:!S its birth,
To -night the Old Year ends ;
?.. fill your g' asses to the rim,
AiH let us say farewell to him ! ? -
The season knows no flower or leaf
To deck his aged brow ; f
His hour, alas ! is growing brief,
. lie needs must leave us now :
So let us fill our glasses high,
A nd bid the dear Old Year -Good by!"'
')!. Year, you have been with us long
The best of friends must part ;
(Mi. seems it weok if with our song
The tears unbidden start?
Ji'ark to the bell, his funeral knell,
Tiw bid the good Old Year " Farewell!"
I!e brought us generous gif's-of flowers,
" When spring tripp'd o'er the plain ;
lie brought us Summer's golden hours,
' id fields of waving grain ,
So h.'t us fill our glasses high,
A .Tl say to him once more GorI-1v !"'
Join hands, my friends ; he lives no more
." Whom we have loved so well
I 'is days with us at last are o'er, -
Now fails his funeral bell ;
Join hands around the warm hearth here,
And welcome in the glad New Year!

A Tliriiling Incident.
Afr. innnj,o I! ' pfixt ilix-iiftnary in JJurmali,
amontj the Buddhist I'rieis.
We were pleasantly entertained this
morning by Mrs. Ingalls.a missionary from
Bnrniah. who came to our uflice accompa
nied by President Sears, of Brown Uni
versify, and while here related many in
teresting experiences of her missionary
labors, and made frequent reference to Ihe
valuable aid afforded her by the Pain Kil
ler, which is. she says, frequently called by
the natives the '-God-Medicine," and some
times worshiped by them. One iiistinco
she relates as follows :
"One stormy day I was sent for to visit
one of the ( Jod-men, or hih priests, who
had been severely wounded, the messenger
saying that he was killed. I told him it was
no use then for me to go, as my medicine
could not raise the dead. - 15ut he persisted:
saying the (Jod medicine would not surely
fail to do him some jyood. My native preach
ers, who better understood the extravagance
of their language, urged me strongly to go,
fueling that God bud in this way opened a
door to the gospel, in answer to our mat y
prayers. Put I still, hesitated, fearing for
the reputation of my medicine, which had
become a powerful aid in giving me access
to the natives. At length I yielded, and tak
ing in tny hand a bottle of the Pain Killer,
the charm that had opened this door, I fol
lowed my guide through the monastery, into
the inner, or mostt sacred place, where lay
the wounded man upon the ground, a ghast
ly object, covered with blood, and apparently
dead.
"J knew something of the dangers that
surrounded me, and notwithstanding my
trust in llim who said, I will never leave
or forsake yon.' I could not wholly divest
myself of fear. Standing beside the dying
man, I said to the monks or priests who had
followed me in, or were there before me, that
my medicine could not raise the dead, nor
bring back the departed spirit; and, should
it fail to restore their 1'riend, they ought not
to condemn the medicine. ti!l, I would do
a!i in my power for the wounded man ; but,
to begin with. I must have some bandages.
They had none, and knew not where to get
anv. I pointed to the altar cm tain ; butthat
could not be touched, except bj the high
priest. It was the sacred yellow cloth. I
started to leave, saying it would be useless
for me to remain, as I could do nothing with
out means. Jjtit '.icy woiiid not let me go.
The Gud-tnan must be saved, and I might,
for tli s pur; o ;e. use the sacred cloth. I
speedily laid ' profane' hand on it, and con
verted it into b.indnges, with which, satura
ted in Pain Killer, 1 bound up the wounds of
the still insensible man.
I then asked for a cup in which to prepare
some Pain Killer, but the sacred cups of their
gods, used only in their religious rites, and
never touched by hands profane, were the
only ones to be had. To save the God-man,
I might use one of them, though no one of
those present dared take and give it to me.
1 took one, however, and prepared in it, and
gave to the unconscious sutlerer, a strong
dose of the Pain Killer. The man soon be
gan to show signs of returning conscious
ness, and eventually recovered."
Fion this time her influence with ;le
priests, as well as with the lower castes,
was almost unbounded, and for this she
felt herself greatly indebted to the "Pain
Killer.' She said that year by year she
learned to place more reliance upon it. as
a remedy for all diseases of the stomach
even cholera, so fatal there as well as for
all the billions flections so prevalent in
that climate ; and that it seldom failed to
realize all her expectations, and often sur
prised her by the promptness and efficien
cy of its action. Com.
A Great L;:us Medicine.
Speaking of Allen's Fung Balsam, flic
Providence, Rhode Lslatxl Adcertiscr, says:
There is one medicine which has been pre-
pared for the cure of affections f the lungs j

that it. has in many instances effectually

How to Get Km of Friends.
A good-natured fftLkny, who was near

the constant visits of his friPnrU. is
' ,
one day complaimng.biltetly , of his
numerous visitors, "bhure, and I II

A Sao Thing. One of the saddest
things about human nature is, that a
man may guide others in the path of
life without walking in it himself;
that he may be a pilot, and yet a
castaway.
