DAVIS, Manager K. McNALLY y150 "It is an nccident," said ‘Mr. Huotbard. ‘‘*Some queer cranks do come you know." But Mrs. Hubbard was in a troubled state 0f mind, as was but natural. Aud the loaf was put aside, for even Mr. Hubbard did not dare éat any of it. "look there and see !" she said. "It is a warning. Well I am going to be taken away from then: all." And he looked, and he saw a death‘s head and crossâ€"boues, as plainly engraved as they possibly could be. "‘The stories about the haunted house were true," said she, "«nd the spirits have morked the loal. I am afraid it is a warn Mrs. Hubbard pointed to the botton of the loaf lying upwards in her lap. *A bothering child, to give us so much trouble!" she said, as she crawled under the table to get it. *"Ahltâ€"oh .â€"ah!â€"dear sister!Iâ€"oh !â€"oh !â€"" And there on the floor sat Mrs. Hubbard, screaming, wringing her hands and chakâ€" ing her head. The children screamed in concert. Mr. Hubbard rushed in from where he was at work. Mrs. Hnbbard flew to the rescue, and picked up the loaves. _ All were dusted and put in the tray again but one. That lay, bottom upwards under the table. Tommy was four, and when at that age we are prone to believe that anything will bear our weight. Tor:my, therefore anxâ€" ious to inspect the new made bread, swung himself off his teet by elutching the edge of the tray, and over it came, luoaves, Tommy and all. So into the oven t e bread went, and out it came at the proper time, even and brown, and beautifal as loaves could be. Mrs. Hubbard turned them out on their sides as she diew them forth, and they stood in the long breadâ€"tray,glorious proots of her skill and excellence of the oven, when Towmmy Huabbard bounded in. "For I cant get up an appetite for stuff that no body knows who had the making of," said Mrs, Hubbard, and pafly and flnmy besides. As not a ghost appeared fora week, she made up her mind that there was no such inbabitants. _ She even began not to mind the tombstones. So the house got to rights at last, and baking day came about. In the press of business they had a great deal of baker‘s bread, and they were now tired of it. â€" Mrs. Hubbard never enjoyed setting a batch of bread to rise as she did that which was to be eaten for the first time in her new house. ‘ Having ouce . expostnlated and spoken out her mind as to the house, Mrs. Hubâ€" bard gave up the point. She serubbed and and scoured, tacked down carpets and put up eurtains,} and owned that the place was pretty. So the house was bought, and in it the Hubbard family went. â€" There was searcely a chanee of a ghost to show its face in such a good family of boys and girls, Mr. and Mrs. Hrbbard counted ten â€"of â€" themâ€" all noisy ones. "Mrs. Hubbard," he said, whea his wife shook her head over tue purchase, "I got it cheap, and it is a good one. â€" Youâ€"will like t when you get there. ~If you don‘t then talk." , It was in the days of ‘our grandmothers, when there were brick ovens in the land, ;tlmt Mr. Hubbard bought his house, and bought it very much against his wife‘s will. It was a lonely house, and reported to be haunted. It was next to a graveyard, which, though unused, was not cheerful, and which likewise had the reputation of a ghost. However, Mr. Hubbard did not believe in gliosts, and was â€"too cheerful to be depressed by warniogs, and mever in« tended to be lonley, ‘ ""Whets‘s the matter, mother?2" Thy will be done!

BX SYLVICOLA, POETRY. j ; She lay in bed biddivg goodâ€"bye to her , family and her friends, her strongth going | fist. She read her bible, and strived not to grieve too much. ‘The doetor shook his head. Thle clergyman prayed with her. No body doubted but that her end was at ; hand, for people were superstitious in those | days. Indeed she came ‘down the next day, and when the oven had been re.constructâ€" ed, the first thing she did was to give m vitations to a large teaâ€"drimking party, on which oceasion the loaves cume out all And the tone assured the assemblege of anxions friends that Mre. Hubbard was not guing to die just yet. "William," she said to her busband, "‘the first thing that you do is to get a new bottotmm on that oven." "Parding," said he breathlessly. "I heard that Mrs. Hubbard was dying, and she had warnings on her bakings. I came over to explain. You see I was sexton of the church here a few years ago, and know all about it, You need not die for fear just yet, Mrs. Hubbard, for it‘s neither spirits nor demons about, nor yet warnin‘s. What marks the loaves is old Mrs. Finkle‘s tombstone. [ took it for an oven botiom seeing there were no survivors and bricks were dear. The last folks before you did not get them printed off on their loaves because they used tins, and we .got used | to the marks ourselves. Crossâ€"bones und‘ akiuils we put up with, and never thonght of caring tor the resurgam. So you see how it is, and I‘m sorty you have been‘ No body said a word. The munister shut the book. ‘The doctor went to the window.~‘There was a dead silence. Mrs. Hubbard sat up in bed. * They had been up all night with Mrs Hubbard, and dawn was breaking, and with it <she was sure she mast go, when clattering over the road and â€"up to the house came a man who alighted. There was no stopping him. Up the steps he went, and boited in. Every one stared at him as he took off his hat. The children screamed ; the cat mewed ; the dog barked. The loaf was examined. Yes, there was Mrs Hubard‘s warningâ€" her call to qut the world. And Mrs. Hubbard fainted away in the arms of the most terrified of men and Insbands. Mrs. Hubbard‘s hand trembled, but she drew it forth. She laid it on the tray. She turned it]sottly about. At last she exâ€" posed the lower surface. On it were letters printed backyard, plain eneugh to read this time, audâ€"arranged thus: PIED APRIL 2ND, LAMENTED BY HER LARGE FAMILY, "It is me !" cried Mrs. Hubbard. "I‘m to go to morrow. This is the first. I do feel faint â€"yes I do,. It‘s awfulâ€"and so sudâ€" ‘ den." j The tuird buking day was one of gloom. Bolemnly as s funeral, the family assemblâ€" ed to nssist in the drawing. Five loaves came out markless ; but one remained. Aud though Mr. Hubbard laughed, he also began to be troubled. "I have a presentimenut," she said, over and over again, "that the third baking would decide who the: warning belouged to. I beiieve it is meaut for me, and time will show. Don‘t you see how thin I aim growing." 7 And now that the: second loaf was before her eyes, marked evem .more awfully than the first, Mrs. Hubbard grew pale and thin,and lost her cheerfulness. | ~â€" Mre. Hubbard shook her head. it is even solemmer,"> said the li‘t‘e womun, who was not so ’o.d a linguist as a breadmaker. $ "I feel confident, Willizam, that I will soon be resurgained, wnd ~what will the dear children do then ?2" "Well yes," said â€" Mr.:~Hubbard, â€" being obliged to admit it. "But it was not so bad as the crossâ€"bones andâ€"ekull." "Its what they put on tombs, isn‘t it? asked poor Mrs. Hubbard,faintly. backward. "By George!" sard he, "Thats curious â€"râ€"0â€"sâ€"uâ€"râ€"gâ€"aâ€"m, resurgam; that is what is on the loafâ€"resurgam." ~ The loaves baked ms> befere.>They eame out brown and orusty ; and as Mrs. Hubbard turned each inâ€"her hand, there were no crossâ€"bopes visible, bus on the last were sundry characters and <letters. What, no one could tell, till there dropped in for a chat a certain priuter of the neighâ€" ’uny.andto get possession of the house again all to themselves. The latter supposition inspired Mrs. Hubbard with courage. Finally, being a brave woman, she adopted the belief,* and when another baking day came round, put her loaves into the Oven ~omce ~more, prepared forvcrossâ€"bones and not to be frightened by them. | sptrits wanted to ‘frightem the Hubbards a yeo T Psn TTE 0d every day. . . , . relighed of His own Spirit, T14 c3 00# â€"_.. icbict T%. x) 4 . _ our;" others, "a gracious Saviourâ€"a ready Saviourâ€"a justifying Saviourâ€"the everâ€" | bless>d Saviourâ€"a sanctifying Saviourâ€" | a Saviour that is God and manâ€"a holy Savicurâ€"a righteous Saviourâ€"the Saviour ? of all that gome unto God by himâ€"an inâ€" "‘dulgenat Saviourâ€"a meck Saviourâ€"a dyâ€" | ing Saviourâ€"a risen.Saviourâ€"a blesseu , Baviour=â€"a pleading Saviourâ€"an allâ€"sufhiâ€" [ cient Saviomâ€"a prayer hearing and anâ€" | swering Saviourâ€"a fuithfal Saviout." They .hud nearly exhansted their theme, when a {little boy . exclaimed, with much gravity, | "He is the cliiefest among ten thousand ; he is altogether lovely !" _ Thusended these testimonials from the lips of childhood to the allâ€"sufficiency of the blessed Redeemer. "Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings thou bas perfected praise." us,(John x, 28â€"80) is indeed consolation; aud it is peculiarly realized by the Church 8. Christ, anall providing and sustainâ€" ing Saviour.â€"It is a precious thought to the Children of God, that the Captain of their salvation does not leave them without provisions in their enemies‘s land, whilst they are engaged in fighting the good fight of faith ; for it is written, "Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies". (Pealms xxiii 5). _ Even there their King is in the midst of them and sitâ€" teth at their table. The Omuipotence and Almightivness of God become unutterably precions, when he is known as the "God of Love." . To be embraced within, that all. powerful hand from wiuch none can pluck "Through his grace, by faith and prayer." "But suprosing you were to go once or twice without obtaining your request, how would you act ?" "I would go again and again; I would go forever, but I would have it." This was said with so much earnestness of look and countenancs, that it was evident she must bave felt it. Perâ€" ceiving the attention of the children all fixâ€" ed npon him, through this little creature, he said, "You then think that the Savione will save you at lust ?" â€" "Yes, sir." "Now then every one of you tell me," said he, in turp, what think you of him ?" Theardor of all their little minds was at once perâ€" ceivable : the first said, "I think, sir, he is an able Saviour," the next, "a willing Kaviâ€" 2. Christ, an all sufficient Saviour. This is well brought out by an excellent minister in a few questions proposed by him to children in a Kabbath School, founded on Matt. 11:28, "Come unto ine all ye that libour and are heu?t?"Yaden, and 1 will give you rest." ‘The attention of the cluldren being directed to the person who uttered the text, different boys said he was "the eternal Son of God," "the Redeemer," "‘the everlasting Father," "the Prince of Peace." Mr. Kilpin asked how persons are to come to Christ. The children said, we must "come as poor sinuers," "helpless kinners," "not as righteous but as needy sinners." _ A little girl was addressed thus, ‘"Who do you think is the person who spenks in the text ?" _ "Christ, sir." "Is it important that we go to him ?" "We shall perish if we do not." "Do you go to him." "I hope I do." "How?" sinners, & Priest is for offenders and tresâ€" passers, a Prophet is for the simple and igâ€" norant, a King is to viudicate from serviâ€" | tude all that are a bondage, a Physician is | lor the sick. ‘This speaks for you, sinnere. Why did He empty Himself, and come into the world? For.sinners. Why was He a fitted sacrifice to die? . For His sheep ; for His friends; for His enemies. Hear Him, as He thus speaks to you in the eweet acâ€" cents of loveâ€""I am come that they might have life, and that they might, have it more abundantly." Again Christ thus speaks to youâ€""Greater love hath no man | than this, that a man lay down his life for h s friends." The disciples of Jesus utter the sentiments of their Master when they thus reason on the subjectâ€"*"For if, when we when enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be sayed by h s lif." "W are accordingly not to so think of Christ as if He were a jewel looked np in a cabinet in beaven, to be touched and made use of by none; but we are to regard Him as a jewel to be appropriated by all who believe in Him. Let no man therefore, thus reason with himselfâ€""Oh, I am asinner, I am a wretched captive ; what have I then to do with so precious a Lord as Christ?" But we pray you,whereâ€" tore is Christ a Savicur? is it not for sinâ€" ners ? â€" Wherefore is He a Physmcian and a Redeemer? Ts it that he should he beâ€" side God useless?

Signs of this were alâ€" ready apparent, and in the British Empire generaily those recorded results, he thought might stimulate local Parliaments to mainâ€" tain low tariff, to the undoubted material benefit of every industrial worker throughâ€" out the Empire, Mr. Baden Powell supâ€" ported his summary of results by a long arâ€" ray of statisties, _ Mr. W. Bothly maintainâ€" ed thar protection was quite fatal to those interests on behalf of which it was adoptâ€" ed. â€" Mr. Westgarth, Mr. Whitehouse (New York) and other gentlemen joined in a brief discussion which was generally favor» able to the views of Mr. Powell. The Chairman intimated that the following day a paper opening np the whole question of free trade versus protection would be read. â€"N. Y. World. _ _2ud. In regard to the provision of reâ€" venue (the main ‘argument), New South Wales provided a far larger general revenue per head of population, and the special reâ€" venue from custom duties had inereased with a low tariff, but had barely maintainâ€" ed its level under the high tariff, The low tariff provided an equal amount of revenue to the high tariff, 8rd. In regard to general prosperity, inâ€" dustrial prosperity, social prosperity, the growth of trade, of the carrying trade, of the general wealth, and, above all, of popuâ€" Intion, New South Wales had advauced with far greater raprdity thiun Victoria. 1st. The development of manufactures as opposed to the production of *eolonial produce," (of food and raw material) had been on the whole about equal, if we lookâ€" ed to eimnployment of population and eapiâ€" tal, If protection hLad introduced some manufactures, free (trade had introduced others. asâ€" "unique." _ It was a test case, the firs! ’ which history had given us, of the actuai ; recorded results of lJow and high tariffs in two limifllrly constituted communities ; specially interesting because they were young communities, where, if anywhere, protection was allowed theoretically.
