AUTUMN FLOWERS.
Written for the Tri-Wkkkly Astorian.
Wo love the bright, brave Autumn flowers
That cheer these sobre days.
They struggle out with all their powers,
To speak their Maker's praise;
They come without tho gcntlo shower,
Or coaxing Summer sun;
And still smile on, 'though Heavens lower,
before their course they've run.
Though the chilling winds sweep o'er their
home,
In many a fitful gust,
They crown each stem with a flow'ry domo,
Ne'er trail them in tho dust,
But look more perfect, lovely and pure,
After each biting blast,
And socm to say: All thing? I endure.
To make my brightness last-
Th esc tender flowers teach lessons brave,
To many a thoughtful mind;
"When cares and trials our pathway pave,
And naught seems true or kind;
"When cv'ry duty becomes a Cross
"Which wo are forced to bear.
And all our lives aro filled with dross
Of discontent, and care;
Then should we, with pationco untiring
Gather our burdens up.
Still on our Redeemer relying,
Drink of the bitter cup.
"Wo then shall taste of poaco onduring,
Coniuering all our fears;
In the joy of His love rejoicing,
E'en smiling through our tears.
. Seljlh.
SUXD.1Y READING
The first nautical person alluded to
in the Scriptures is said to be Eve,
because she was first mate.
A man can do without his own ap
probation in much society, but he
make great evcrtions to gain it when
lie lives alone.
The real wants of nature are the
measure of enjoyment, as the foot is
-the measure of the shoii. We can
call only the want of what is neces
sary, poverty.
The Baptists have no less than ten
churches in Atlantic, Ga., three of
which are colored churches. One of
the colored churches numbers 1,000
communicants.
There are more Jews. in New York I
than in Jerusalem, and more than in
any other city in the world, and there
are more Catholics there than in the
city of Home.
A man sought to annoy a boy whom lie
found at work by the roiuUideand finally
asked him who his lather and mother
were, to which the boy replied, "they are
the parents of a bon who knows how to
practice the wie precepts of King Solo
mon, by answering a fool according to his
lolly."
"What a conglomeration of religious
bodies a great city is, is clearly illus
trated by the latest statistics of Paris,
which, it seems, contains l,732,52y
Catholics, 30,421 Israelites, 17,251
Calvinists, 14,940 Lutherans, !),S42
Anglican, Methodists and Quakers,
422 Mohammedans, Buddhists and
Brahmins, 2,500 persons who declar
ed that they belonged to no religious
ect, and two only who were Free
thinkers. Laughter is one of the gifts which
distinguish men from animals.
Mirth, so far from being one of the
lower attributes of huinan nature, is
one of the higher. It reigns in an
innocent nature, and tends to perfect
and brighten the mind wherever al
lowed. It may be said of this emo
tion as quaint Andrew Fuller said of
anger, l- He would it hath a maimed
mind."
A crumpled little package was re
cently received at the Mayor's office
in Memphis which contained five
dollars and five cents, nearly all in
one, two, three and five cent pieces.
On the inner wrap;ing was written
11 Little Lilly's money, to go to a poor
child;" on the outer paper in a differ
ent hand were the words, " From lit
tle Lilly, for the M emphis sufferers
a dying bequest."
A newspaper correspondent has
discovered a new solution of Mormon
difficulties. He says that the waters
of Salt Lake have been rising for
years, and are now twenty feet high
er than they used to be. They are
moreover inclosed" by a ridge far
above the doomed city of the plain,
and sooner or later the imprisoned
waters will break out and engulf the
modern Sodom and settle the Mor
mon question forever.
A Tennessee preacher announced
to his congregation on a recent Sun
day, that a prayer meeting would be
held in the church in behalf of the
Memphis sufferers, and exhorted his
congregation to put on sack-cloth
and ashes for the solemn occasion.
One sister accordingly procured a lot
of old coffee sacks, worked them into
a well-fitting dress, sprinkled said
unique dress profusely with ashes,
and when the day of prayer arrived
put it on and started for the house of
God. She was stopped bv her mis
tress, who had considerable difficulty
in explaining to ner cue rem mean
ing of the minister.
