THE DEACOya TOW,
The sword, of a terrible suspense was
quivering over the household of Deacon
Cameron and his wife, la the small,
white-curtained chamber over the sit
. ting-room their only daughter, Agnes,
lay between life and death. The doc
- tors gave them little reason to hope that
the feeble spark which was flickering,
and nearly ready to expire, could "be
again rekindled. Tor days and weeks

. . '" .
The physician had told the father that
there was little probability that Agnes
could recover, and that the issue would
ere long be- decided. With pale face
and haggard eyes, he left the house,
and wanucred on past his ample barns,
through the great apple orchard and
the vinoyard, aud over the wide mead
ows, that were his pride. The man's
soul wii3 desolate. He felt as though
a hurricane had gone over him, sweep
ing him bare of what the good years
had given. The cry of his heart was:
"Lord, take the rest! Take all, but
leave me my Agnes!" For the first
time in his experience his wealth was a
matter of utter indifference to him.
He walked on, lookiug strangely older I
than ever belore, nnd the bowed head,
shrunken stature and tottering feet were
curiously unlike the self-assertive, arro
gant man, whose very gait was usually
the unconscious expression of a will that
would have its way, encounter what
opposition it might.
There -was a great spreading oak
which stood on the edge of his land,
shadowing equally his farm and that of
his nearest neighbor, Harmon Murray.
The Murrays were the opposite of tho
Camerons. Gay, light-hearted, spend
ing money lnvjshly, sending the boys
oil to college and the girls to city
schools, buying books, music and pict
ures, filling the house with guests at
midsummer and in the holidays. Deacon
Cameron could not help having private
doubts as to the Christianity of tho
Murrays. Though Harmon Murray was
a liberal subscriber to every good eauso
and a regular nttendant on the services
of the church, he was, in the Deacon's
prejudiced eyes, a heathen man nnd a
publican. It had been an aggravation
of his jrrief that the jrloom in his homo
was shared in ins neighbor s,
:hbor's. Espcciallv
had ho chafed and strujreled azainst
the knowledge that one member of the
family so antagonistic to his own cared
for Agnes with a love deeper than that
of kindred. The Deacon, though a
strong man, was selfish. He would
have looked with aversion on any man
who might have desired to win the
affection of his child; for he meant to
keep her as his own particular treasure,
if he could. But that Edgar Murray
should nspirc to her hand, and that,
even timidly and afar off, Agnes should
venture to "regard him as her future
lord, had awakened in him a resistance
as violent as it was stubborn. 'Till now
Tie had been fiercely angry when threo
or four times a day'the young man had
presented himself to inquire for Agnes
or to bring her fruit anil flowers. Ho
had been indignant at his wife, because
she had acscpted Mrs. Murray's help in
earing for the sick one; nor conltl he
forgive her for ignoring his displeasure
and sending to the Murrays for aid in
this emergency.
But now he was in extremity. Ho
staggered to a seat beneath the oak,
the very scat where Edgar and Agnes
had been accustomed to rest after tneir
occasional sauuterings together by tho
creek or along the embowered lanes,
and his -gray head went down upon his
hands. Hi? whole heart was concen
trated in a vehement, wordless prayer,
which was fain to beat ajrainst the Al
mighty's throne. No feeling of God's
paternity entered his mind at that in
tense moment. No remembrance of
Christ as the great, High Priest who
pleads for the children of men with a
brother's comprehension of their wants.
No thought of the Holy Spirit, with
His sacred influences, came to him, as
shaken, tempest-tossed, and -almost
heartbroken, he cried to God, the Strong
One, who could hear him, if he would.
The God of the Deacon's imagination
wasla despot, but a despot who could be
gracious. He prayed as a Saxon might
have, prayed to Thor, as a Roman to
Jupiter, "or a Hindu to -Vishnu, that his
child might be spared. Sinking to liis
knees, in the agony of his still unvoieed
supplication, thB cry of his soul broke
forth into speech:
"Xiord! give me back: my Agnes, my
darling, the one precious thing of my
life! Let her not die. I beseech Thee!
Lord! .listen. Thou hast ten thousand
times ten thousand in Thy Heaven.
Why dost Thou, waut mv 'little ewe
lamb? Oh, let herjivet et hec live,
and I -will give Thee "whatsoever Thou
shalt require. My money, if Thou ask
est it, to the uttermost "farthing. Aly
will if it be counter to Thine, I will
surrender it wholly. Yea, Lord, let
Ao-ties liye, though she sit at the fire
side of another and break bread in the
housethat I hate. Take' not tke sun
shine ont of the world. Lord, though it
hine'noton me. Hearjnypraver, for
Thy dear Son's sake."
"Amen!" said a lopr. voice, and, look
ing up, tke Deacon saw that his prayer
had had another than a divine listener.
Edgar Murray, walking homeward on
!he other side of the boundary-line, had
heard the "flow of the Deacon's peti
tion; -and as he stood there, bare
headed, the Amen had welled up from
his heart almost before he was aware
of it.
"Can a man go nowhere to be
alone?" exclaimed the Deacon "Must
he be followed -and -spied upon under
his own trees andoa his own grooidr'
The instinctive animosity waslloat
inant in a moment, though the prayer,
had scarcely-, died kpon his lips.

andhe is therefore not comfortable.
Perhaps, dear, wc have not prayed for

Xhe plain fact was that the Deacon
was exceedingly uncomfortable in his
m,n(L, Hehatl offered a genuine prayer
and nleded nn honest vnw. fnllv mcin.
and pledged an honest vow, fnlly mean
ing to keep his word, while in his heart
had been a vague idea of propitiation
as he knelt beneath the oak. When
Agnes had first begun to grow stronger.
ins resolution nail been linn to mlull
i his word; but as she had crept onward
to health it had loosened its hold upon
him. Could a rajracle have been per
formed, and the maiden have arisen
from her couch at one triumphant
bound from death to life, he would
have been awed and overwhelmed and
in haste to make good his word to the
Almighty. The comparative slowness
of her restoration had given time to his
nature to assert itself, and bo was real
ly more ill-tempered, cross-grained and
churlish than he had been before. Even
to Agnes he was sometimes harsh; the
more so that, under her soft exterior
and winsome ways, the slender girl had
an undcrbing subsoil of granite, not
unlike his own character, and far
tougher and firmer than the fabric of
which her gentle mother was made.
Affnes loved her father, but she loved
her friend, too. If Edgar were pro
hibited from visiting her at her own
hearth, she was not ashamed to meet
him openly under the sky; to walk with
him to the choir rehearsals; and to go
riding with his sister, while he held the
reins and his swift horses, the admira
tion of the county, trotted smoothly up
hill and down dale and over the hard,
beautiful, floor-like roads which swept
around mountain-sides, skirted limpid
streams, and intersected tho thriving
villages which dotted that portion of
the Suite. Had any other member of
his family thus dared his displeasure,
the Deacon would have met them with
prohibition Mid threatening; but it was
too late to begin this course with Agnes,
who he did not wish to drive into en
tire estrangement. So the year wore
on, darkling and sorrowful in the
Cameron household, though outwardly
all things prospered nnd whatever the
Deacon touohod turned to gold.
His main trouble was with his Bible.
Turn where he would, the verses fa
miliar from his childhood mocked him.
The word vow seemed to stare at him
from every page. It was David who
said: "Shall l offer to the Lord
sacrifices of that which cost mo noth
ing?" And David had alwa3s been his
favorite character. But they all paid
their vows.
Even Jcphthah, whose rash and
sweeping pledge to the Deity had In
volved tho offering of his only daughter
in a dark and mysterious doom, had
not shrunk from the terrible exaction.
Saul, in a moment of haste, had con
demned a possible offender to death;
and lo! it proved to be Jonathan who
must meet the bolt of fate, nnd only the
majestic protest -of the united nation
had availed to save him. The Bible
was an armory which bristled with
weapons turned" constantlv against the
Deacon's conscience. And while he sat
at the head of his table, silent, con
strained and gloomy, imposing an un
wholesome and irritating repression on
wife and children, a liery battle was
raging within him. He grew to dread
Agnes' sweet, composed face, where
the patience which could' wait indefi
nitely, and hold its own to the last, was
already stamping a Madonna-like dig
nity. "Often, as ne saw Edgar Murray
in church, he felt that he was unrea
sonable in opposing his suit. There
could be no valid objection to a pure,
steady, well-educated and honorable
young man, who loved his daughter
and whose love she returned. Tho ob
stinate antagonism of his dislike had no
foundation which cotdd be sustained by
arguments.
Days wore on. Months and seasons
waned. The apple trees blossomed,
ripened and were shorn of their fruit.
Successive harvests were reaped. And
then, the tide of good fortune turned,
and the Deacon had a new
experience. He lost money. Ap
parentlv stable investments collapsed.
His eldest son went to a dis
tant State. A horse of which he was
proud was carelessly tied, and lamed in
consequence. A "favorite Alderney
sickened and died. The barn took fire
and was consumed. None of the losses,
,sofar, were crushing; but the aggre
gate bore heavily on the Deacon and
made him very sad. As he sat in his
arm-chair or followed the plow, he felt
that the warfare 4jf the Almighty had
assumed a tangible form, and that His
arrows were being aimed for his de
struction. .
One sorrowful day there came a
greater loss. The hand of paralysis
was laid upon the meek and ever-submissive
wife, and she lay for hours in
that death-in-life which is sonorrible
and so inscrutable. Now, was the cup
of calamity full and running over.
Never a demonstrative- nor a very lov
ing husband, the Deacon had felt a
true respect and a complacent proprie-.
tary affection for the -woman who had
given him herself in the radiant bloom
of her girlhood, when she had chosen
him from many suitors. Always kad.
she been a faithful wife, diligent, fru
.gaL and obedient to his wishes. When
she passed softly away, amid the sobs
of her children, he shed no tear; but
God's lightning had, nevertheless,

The death of the Comic Alfred do
Chateauvillars has deprived France of
one of her most extraordinary eocial
types. The late Count lived for the
last few years of his life as a recluse,
and, although a memlHu of the two
most select clubs in Paris 1' Union and
will that his funeral should be merely a
thiril.elM one. and that his rumalna
should be accompanied to their last I
resting-place by only three of lm most 1
devoted friends and fifty persons '
chosen out of the mass of the many pau- I
pers whose needs he had so generously J
met. It was distinctly toruiuuen to is-
sue anv other invitations to attend his
funeral, and the result was that the cof- j
lm was followed, oy real mourners.
The following is another odd fact not
generally known about Chateauvillars,
whose whims and caprices have Ions
been a general topic of conversation in
Paris. After having lived separately
from his wife for man years, ho one
day took it into his head' that he would
liko to sue how Dido was prospering;
stealing down secretly int the country
to the chateau in which she was resid
ing, he came upon her unawares, and
found her so charminjr and eantivatinj:
that he eloped with her! 1 am sorry to ,
have to chronicle that this odd raccom
modement did not last long, and that
before many months had elapsed mad
ame again returned to rural solitudes.
M. de Chateauvillars' splendid and
well-known hotel. No. CO Hue St.
Lazare, he shortlv afterward rented to
the famous Due J'Ossuna, whose boast
it was that he could, travel from Tnris
to Madrid in his own carriage, nnd only
stop to sleep in oue of his own chr
tcaux! As the Spanish grandee had
about eight houses in France and six
castles in Spain, he could afford to
break his journey wherever he so
pleased. WhitdiaU Review.
The Human Eace Euanlng te Brain.
If there is to be so much head work,
what will become of us all? If both
men and women aro to develop more
and more their brains, we shall soon be
not far from the realization of the
words of Diderot, who said: Wc walk
so little, wc work so little and we think
so much, that I do not despair of man
ending by being nothing but a head."
Figure to j'ounelf civilized man 100 or
200 years hence, when manual labor
6hall have been entirely replaced by ma
chinery, and when the dreams of Social
ists shall have been realized, and man,
even in the lowest grade of society,
shall be able to gain Ids livelihood by
workmg say three or four hours out of
the twentv-four. The teudencv. vou
will observe, is constantlv to reduce tho
hours of labor. In many parts of Enjr-
land, for instance, the hours of labor
are little more than half what they wero
fifty years ago. Imagine, then, the
movement spoken of oy Diderot con
stantly progressing, and man walking
less and less, owing to the increased fa
cilities of communication and locomo-
tion, and working less and less, owing
to the constantlv lnereasinjr use and per
fection of machinery, and thinking more
and more out of pure distraction nnd
out of the ennui of civilization! Imag
ine woman, thanks to the realization of
the projects of Mr. Camille See, and to
the establishment of Girton Colleges all
over the world, imagine woman walk
ing even less than she does now, work
ing less, and thinking more and more!
"W hat shall we come to, great Darwin?
Does not the theory of evolution point
to the inevitable realization of Diderot's
words?
Will not our lejrs wither awav
and return to the rudimentary stage like
our tails? Will not our arms and bodies
diminish, and muscles for which there
is no- longer any use dry up, and their
elements be absorbed by the brain and
head, which will acquire the phenom
enal proportions of a caricature?
Tarisian.
SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.
A conversation has been carried on
by telephone between Dublin and Holy
head. .Recently- a distance of two thou
sand miles was "thus covered by the in
strument, and now Prof. Beft states
that he has conversed with his instru
ment through resistance wires repre
senting ten thousand miles.
Measurements of trees, taken in
Scotland in the summer seasons of 1878
and 1879, show a growth from ten to
forty-one per cent. less during the lat
ter year than in the former. The mean
temperature of the summer of 1878 was
fully, five per cent, higher than the
corresponding period of 1879.
.Indianapolis dealers in hard wood
say that the supply of black walnut in
Indiana has decreased to 'such an ex
tent that it can no longer be handled
profitably. So better investment caa
be made" in the tree Ime than to plant a
few acres to tho black walnut, the most
useful tree of modern times. India

the present force of laborers. Vet tak- ,
ing tho country through the census re-
ports show that during thirty years the
size of farms has greatly decreased, and f
tnis, despite tho fact that within thirty
years the new States have been occu
pied with railroads which have massed i
largo tracts in few hands. The figures
from 1850 to 1870 are as follows:

It is probable that tho census next
dsus next
tendency
summer will show that this
continues, as is natural where land is
cheap, as it is in this country, and every
man who chooses can secure a home of
his own with a fewycars' labor. There
aro no difficulties interred in any
State to discourajrc cr prevent the sub
division of farms as in England and Ire-.
hind, and the evils which the Irish pco-,
pic are sulTenng from landlordism are
iu little danger of appearing in this
country. Even in the newer States
where large, unoccupied areas tempt
capitalists to buy and hold immense
tracts, tho tendency is tho hame. In
lexas, lor example, the average size of
I farms in 1850 was 912 acres. In I860
it had decreased to 591 acres, and in
1870 to 801 acres. No other State has
so large farms as Texas. Nevada in
18C0 had farms of 617 acres; but in 1870
! they had decreased
to 201 acres. In
Iowa, in 1870 the
' Illinois, Indiana and
average size of farms was 128, 112 and
134 acres respectively. These are much
smaller farms than we of the East im
agine to be the average in thoe States.
Probably, however, this average is
largelv reduced by the increased num
bers of holders of real estate for market
j gardening purposes near cities and vil-
laires. However induced, the reduc
tion in sizes of farms shows a liettcr
state of cultivation and improvement of
those commonwealths ,in the character
oi tncir opuiation. juts country is as
yet far removed from some of the most
dimcult problems which
tiemand tho
attention of political economists and
statesmen in the overcrowded popula
tion of tho old world. Cor,. Country

He Won (he Ret.
Soon after two o'clock yesterday the
sash in a fourth-storv window "of a
business house on Woodward avenue
was raised and a man's head and shoul
ders appeared in sight. Next he thrust
out an arm, and pedestrians saw a small
rope in his hand. Twenty luen halted
in less than a minute. A plank was
lying at the curb, tind the general line
of reasoning was that the plank was to
be drawn up through the window.
"You'll break Uie glass if you try
itl" shouted one of the fast-growing
group.
"That cord Isn't stout enoughl"
yelled a third.
""Why don't they carry it up by way
of the stairs?" demanded a man, as he
flourished his gold-headed cane around
and seemed much put out.
The cord came part way down and
stopped. Some ten different persons
volunteered the information of more
yet," and presently it was lowered so
that one of the crowd could grasp it.
He pulled down and the man above
pulled up, and four or five men seized'
the plank and brought it to the rope.
"Lower away!" yelled the maa at
the rope.
" Fall down on it!" cried a dozen
voices.
The man above let out more rope aad
waved his hand.
"He wants it over that hitohiag
postl" screamed a boy, and it was car
ried there.
"No; he wants it fast to the Iaaip
postr' shouted a man. and it was car
ried there.
"Let that rope aloneP came
from the laaa above.
Sixaaea had hold of tke plank. Teadv

of the rope.
