An Unexpected Marriage.
Old Governor Saltonstull or Connecticut, who flourished about half a century ago. was a man or some humor
as well as perseverance iu effecting the ends desired.—
Among other anecdotes told or him by the New Loodon
people, the place where he resided, is the following:
Of the various sects that have flourished for a day aod
theu ceased to exist, was one known as the Rogerites,
called from their rounder, a Tom, or John, or some
other Rodgers.
The distinguished tenet or the sect was the denial or
the propriety or the form of the marriage tie. .Ibey believed it was not good for a man to be alono, and also
that one wife only should cleave to her husband, but
then this should be a matter of agreement merely, and
the couple should cotno together, live as man and wife,
dispens/tig with all forms of marriage covenant The
old Goveroor used ofteu to visit Rogers and talk the subject over with him, aud seek to convince him of the impropriety of living with Saroh as lie did. But ocitber
John nor Sarah wonld give np the argument
It was a matter of conscience with them ; tbey were
very happy as tbey were—of what use could a . mere
form be—suppose tbey! did thereby invite scandalwere they not bound to take up the cross and live according to the rules they professed ? The Governor's
logic was powerless to convince them.
"Now, John. "said the Governor, after a debate of
the point, •• why will yon not marry Sarah f Have you
not taken her to be your lawful wifo T'
•' Yes. certainly,' replied John ; " bnt my conscience
will not permit me to marry her in the forms of the
world's people."
•• Very well But you love her V
•• Yes."
•' And respect her f

the laws of God and of the Commonwealth of Connecticut, 1 pronounce you man and wife."
1
The rage of John and Sarah was uf uo avaiL The
knot was tied by the highest authority of the Slate.
The " T r y Company."
A gentleman who was riding iu the cars noticed a
bright little fellow, between five und six years of age,
engaged in the attempt to uulooee a knot in a string that
bound a small parcel. Tho knot had become well compacted, aud tho child's tiny fingers seemed to make no
impression thereon. The patient earnestness of the little fellow was contrasted with the apparent indiffereDco
of his parents, who mada no attempt to assist him. At
last the gentleman, wbtws sympathy with children was
warm, could bear the sight no longer ; so, partly to help
the child, und partly to rebuko the parents, he took out
his knife aud handing it to tbo boy, said :
" Here, my little fellow, try the virtue oT a sharp
blade. You can't untie the knot"
Something to his surprise the knife was not taken,
but instead the child answered with a smile,—
Please, sir, father don't allow mo to say I can't I
belong to the • try .company."
<• •• Iudeed,"said tho gcntlcmau drawing back his band.
I never heard of that company before.
" Oh 1 I've always belonged to it—haven't I, father ?"
'
And the child turned with an expression of loving
confidence in his face towards his father.
>
" Ho is a worthy member of that excellent association, air," said his rather, now speakifig to the gentleman, and smiling in a pleasant way.
" A h ! I understand you."
\
Light was breaking in nponhis mind.
'• This is a part or your discipline. You never pernit ^onr little boy to say • I can't' but instead • IU try,
" Excellent !"said the gentleman. " excellcot | That
is the way men are made. It is the everlasting i I can't.'
that is dwarfing tho energies of thousands upou thousands all over the land. A feeble effort is made to overthrow some difficulty, and then the arms will wearily tall
and the attempt is abandoned."
And .who is most to blame for this t" was inquirParcnts," was the unhesitating reply. " Parents
who foil to cultivate patience aud perseverance io their
children. Parenta who carry them when tlujy should
let them walk, even though their feet be weary. I 6ee

Thought EsaeaUat to Health.
If wo would hare our bodies healthy, our brains must
be used, and used iu orderly and vigorous ways, that tho
life-giving streams of force may flow down from them
into the expectaut organs, which con minister bot as
they are ministered unto.
We admire the vigorous animal life of tho Greeks ; and with justice we recdgniie,
and partly seek to imitate, the various gyumasUe and
other means which they employed to secure i t But
probably we should make a fatal error if we omitted
from our calculation the hearty and generous earnestness
with which the highest subjects of art, speculation and
politics were pursued by them. Surely, »n their cay,
the beautiful and energctic mental life was expressedj in
the athletic and graceful frame. And is it a mere extravagance to tok whether somo part of the lassitude and
weariness of life, of which we hear so much in our day,
may not bo duo to lack of mental occupation on worthy •
subjects, exciting aud repaying a generous enthusiasm,
as well as to an over-exercise on lower ones ; whether
an engrossment on matters which have not substance
enough to justify or satisfy the mental grasD, bo not at
the root of some part of ,flie maladies which affect onr
mcutal coovulescencf ? "Any who tries it soon finds out
how disproportionately exhausting is an over-doie or
light literature, compared with an equal quantity of time
spent on real work. Of this wo may be sure, that the
duo exercise of brain—of thought—is one of the .essential elements of human life. The perfect health of 9>an
is not the same as that or an ox or horse. The preponderating capacity or his nervous parts demands a corresponding life.
The Glory of These Times.
The greatest glory oT I hose times, lies not In the triumphs of battlefields ; not in the victories of physkal
force ; not in the splendid successes of military skill;
not even in the raving of a nation's life; but it lies in
the noble qualities of manhood that the time has called
forth ; in the capacities for firm endurance and uncomplaining suffering that are everywhere displayed ; in
the heroism, devotion and self-sacrifice with which so
many youth and men of noblest stamp have left all that
was attractive at home |o give themselves to their conntry ; in the besotifnl nubmissiveoea and heroic generosity of the homes that have opened tbeir doors and consented to be robbod of their dearest treasures that the
nation and humanity may bo enricbcd is tho helpful
sympathies and charities that have made eveiy community and almost every home among us holier ; in the extraordinary fortitude shown everywhere by the wounded
soldiers io the hospitals: and finally,, iq the triumjm
which, through all tbeir sublime qualities and deeds, is
being achieved for tho sacred principles l|jat are the tree
inspiration of the nation's life.
