The Two Homes. i, ' "i Two men on their way home, met at it street-croBsing, and then walked on together. They were neighbors nnd friends. This has been a very hard day," said Mr Freeman, in a gloomy voice. And as they walked homeward they discouraged each other, and made darker the c loads that ob scared their whole horizon. "dood evening." was at last said hurriedly, and the two men passed into their homes. Mr. Walcott entered the room where bis wife and children were gathered, and without speaking to any one, seated him' soli' in a chair; and leaning his head back, closed his eyes. His countenance wore a sad, weary, exhausted look, lie had been seated thus for only a few miuutes, whon his wife said in a Tearful voice: "More trouble again." "What is the matter now?" asked Mr. Walcott, almost starting. "Jhen has been sent home from school." "What?" Mr. Walcott partly rose from bis chair. "He has been suspended for Dacf conduct." "Oh, dear!" groaned Mr. Walcott, "where ia he?1' "Up in his room; I sent him op as soon as ha came bo-ue. You'll have to do something with him. Ile'll be ruined if he goss on in this way, I'm out of all heart with him." Mr. Walcott, excited as much by the man ner in which his wife conveyed unpleasant information as by the information itself, started np, under the blind impnlse of the moment, and going to the room where John had been sent on coming home from school, punished the boy severely, and tbis without lis tening to the explanations which the poor child tried to make him hear. "Father," said the boy, with forced calmness, after the croel stripes had ceased; "I wasn't to blame, and if you will go with me to the teacher, I can prove myself innocent." : lir. Walcott had never known bis son to tell an nntruth, and the word's fefl with a rebuke upon his heart. "Very well, we will lee "toot that," be answered with forced sternness; and leaving' the room ha went down stairs, feeling much more uncomfortable than when he went up. Again he seated himself in his large cbalr, and again leaned back his weary head and closed hia heavy eyelids. Sadder was bis (ace than before. , As be sat thus, the eldest daughter, in her sixteenth Tr, came and stood by himi"8he held a paper in her hand. . ' ' "Father;" he opened bis ayes; "here's ny quarter's bill. Can't 1 have the money to take to school with me in lb") morning?" ' I am afraid not," answered Mr. Walcott, half in despair. ';. "Nearly all the girls w iff brir.( in tbelr money to-morrow, and it mortifies ma to be behind tha otheri." Tbo daughter spoke fretfully. Mr. Walcott waved her aside with his hand and aha went ofTmutteringand pouting."It is mortifying," said Mra. Walcott, a little sharply; "and I don't wondor that Hel en feels annoyed about it. The bill has to he paid, and I don't U why it may not be done first as last." To this Mr. Waloott made no answer. The words added but another pressure to the heavy burden under which be was already stag gering. After a silence of some momenta. Mrs,,Waloott said! "The coals are all gone." "JtmptasihW1' Mr. WIooli caked hia head and looked incredulous. "I laid in sixteen tons." "I can't help It, if thore were sixty tons Instead of sixteen; they are all rona. The girls had hard work to-day toserane unannuirh to keep the Are in," "There's been a shamefuU waata soma. where," said Mr. Walcott with rather atmno- emphasis, starting np axd moving about tha room in a very disturbed manner. "SoyoualwAjaaay, whan aovthinv? rona out," answered Mrs. Walcott, rather tartly. The barrel of flour is rone also! but I sun- pose you have don your part, with the rest. in using it up." Mr. Walcott returned to his chair, and again seating himself, leaned back bis lead and closed his eyes, as at first How sad. mod weary, and hopeless he felt! The bur dens of the day had seemed almost too heavy for hnaj but he had borne up bravely. To gather strength for a renewed struMtle with adverse oireumptanfless, hfl M come home. Aiasitnat the process of eihaoshon shouM still go os-that where only strengtik could be looked for on earth, no strength was giv en. When tfte tea ball was Tunc Mr. Walcott made no moyemont to obey the summons. !!Come to supper," said his wife, coldly. Blit he did Dot stir. 1'Are you notoominetesuDnerl" she called tc him, as she was leaving the room. "I don't Wish for anythine this eveninc . My head aches very much," be answered. "In the dumps again." muttered Mrs. Walcott to herself. "Tt's as much as one's life is worth to ask for money, or to say anything Is wanted." And she kept on her way to the dining-room. When she returned her husband was still sitting where she had left him. "Shall I bring you a cup of tea?" she ask ed. "No, I don't wish for anything." "What's the matter. Mr. Walcott? What do you look so troubled about aa if you hadn't a friend in the world? What have I done to you?" There was no answer, for there was not a shade of real sympathy in the voice that made the queries, but rather of querulous dissatis faction. A few moments Mrs. Walcott stood behind her husband, but as he did not seem inclined to answer qaestionR.sKe turned away from him, and resumed the employment which had been interrupted by the ringing of the tea bell,. , , . , The whole eveninir.Dsod olf without the occurenco of a single incident that gave a healthful pulsation to tbe s clc heart of Mr. Walcott. No thoughtful kindness, was manifested by any momber of the family; but on the contrary, a narrow regard for self and a looking to him only that he might supply the means of self-gratification. No wonder, from, the pressure which was on him, that Mr. Walcott felt utterly discour age'd. .He retired early, and sought to find that relief from mental disquietude in sleep whjch he had vainly hoped for in the bosom of his family, But the whole night passed in broken' slumber and disturbed dreams. From the cheerless morning meal, at which he was reminded of tbe quarter's bill that must be. paid, of the coals and flour that were out.and of the necessity of supplying Mrs. Walcott's empty purse, be went.fourtti to meet the difficulties olf another day. faint at heart almost hopeless of success.,. A confident, spirit, sustained by home affections, would have carried, him through: but unsupported as he was, the burden was too heavy for him, and he sank under it. The day that opened so unpropitiously closed upon him a ruined manl Let us look out for a few moments upon Mr Freeman, a friend and neighbor of Walcott. He, also had come ..home weary, dispirited and almost sick. The trials of the day had been unusually severe, and when, he looked anxiously forward to scan I he fut ure, not even a gleam of light wu seen along the black hor. ixon. As he stepped across the threshold of bis dwelling, a pang shot through his heart, for the thought came: "How slight the present hold upon all those comforts." Not tor himself, but for hia wife and children was the pain. "Father's come!" cried a glad little voice en the stairs, tbe moment bis footfall sounded in tbe passage; then quick, pattering feet wart beard, and then tiny form was springing In-to his arms. Before reaching tba sitting-room above, Alice, the eldest daughter, was by bis side, her arm drawn fondly within hia, and her loving eyes lifted to bis face. "Are yoi not late, dear?' It wu the gentle voice of Mrs. Freeman. ' V - Mr. Freeman could not trust himself loan- war. Ha wu too deeply troubled in spirit to assume at the ttvment a cheerful tone, and be bad no wish to sadden tbe heart that loved him, by letting the depression from which he was sutferlnaj become tocV dearly apparent. But the eyes of Mrs. Freeman saw quickly below the surface. "Are you not well, Robert?" she Inqulr- od, tenderly, as she drew his large arm-chair toward tbe center of tbe room. "A little headache," be answered with a slight evasion. Scaroely was Mr. Freeman seated era a pair of handi wu busy with each foot, removing gaiter and shoes, and supplying their place with a soft slipper. There wu not one in the household who did not feel happier for bis return, nor on who did not seek to render him some kind office. It was impossible, under such a burst of heart sunsbint, for the spirit of Mr. freeman long to remain shrouded. Almaat impreeep- tibly to himself, gloomy thoughts gave place to mora cheerful ones, and by the time tea was ready, he bad half forgotten tbo fears which had so haunted him through the day. But they oould not be held back altogether, and their existence waa marked during the evening by an unusual silence and abstraction of mind. This was observed by Mra. Free, man, who more than half suspecting the cause, kept back from ber husband the kcowledga of certain matters about which she had intended to speak to bim, for she feared they would add to bis mental disquietude. During tho evening she gleaned from something be said tbe real cause of his changed aspect At once her thoughts commenced running in a new channel. By a few remarks, she drew her husband into conversation on tbe subject of home expenses and propriety of restriction in various points. Many things were mutually superfluous and easily to be dispensed witb, and before sleep fell soothingly on the heavy eyelids of Mr. Freeman that night, an entire change in their style of living had been determined upon a change that would reduce their expenses at least one-half. "I see light ahead," were the hopeful words of Mr. Freeman, u be resigned himself to slumber. With renewed strength of mind and body, and a confident spirit, ha want forth the next day a day that he had looked forward to with fear and trembling. And it was only through his renewed strength and confldont spirit that he was able to overcome the diffi culties that loomed up, mountain high, before bim. Weak despondency would have ruined all. Home had proved his tower of strength his walled city. Strengthened for the con flict, he had gone forth again into the world arid conquered in the atruggle. "I see a light ahead," gave plaoe to "the morning!" Orangt B!o$xmt. From the Ashtabula Sentinel. Judge Gholson. The Ohio Slatttman and the papers of that party, are very anxious to compel the Repub licans to take the "Rugged Issue," in this election. They insist upon it that swan wa not nominated because of his decision and solely because of it. The facts do not sus tain this. There were many ressons besides, he might not, and probably would not have been nominated. We are very willing, how ever to accept the "Rugged Issue." And if it will be of any satisfaction to the States man, we will assure it that whether the re fusal to discharge Bushnoll and Langston worked the defeat of Judge Swan before the Convention or not, it made his defeat certain boforo the people. Enough of Delegates were very free to say that he could not ho eleoted for that very reason . To come down to the understanding of the Statttimn it rendered him unavaiktQe; and tbe Convention chose lo nominate a nrhn who was available. That's the whole matter in a nutshell. Tbe Republicans the poople af Ohio believe the Fugitive Slave Act to be un jnst, and "abhorrent to tha moral sense of the civilized world." Their Constitution author. iaes them to elect their judges and they, like sensible people, prefer to elect judges who agree with them on this subject. They sure ly would not elect a man because he manifested an independence of their views and his ov n conviction of no-Aland the dictates of humanity; and would therefore probably act against them, Of course they would not re-elect Judge Swan. So far it ia true, his decision prevented his nomination. He probably uould not have been nominated because of other reasons, and he certainly couU not have been elected because of that. This will be the case of all who concur with him. A Decided Sell. , Some wags in California circulated a report, for the benefit of the Mexicans, to the effect that Horace Greely wu crossing the plains at the head of a band of fillibusters, for the purpose of invading and conquering Mexico. This report got to the ears of tha commander of Mazatian, who instantly issued a proelaima-tioo, of which the following ia a part: , "One, Horace Oreely, a moat diabolical, bloodthirsty and unmerciful man worse than the infamons Walker, or even the minions of Miramon--a man whose .very name struck dread to the hearts of thousands lu the Un )ed States, so many , were his erimes and so terrible wu bis conduct is now at the head of the most extensive band of fillibusters ever collected, and on his way to Mexico!'' John Rossner and bis wife Barbara Ross-nerwere arrested at Cincinnati for truelly whipping their child a lad about thirteen yoara tt age. Jt seems that he did not sell u many bunches of matches during the slay as they told him to, and when he returned home one held him' w bile the other flogged him with a leather tong. They took turn and turn about thus, until the cliild'a back pre- i seated a leaiful sfjht. ' The Great Irish Revival. The last steamer brings intelligence of the continual Increase and power of tbe remarkable religious revival in Ireland. . It is a prominent topio in tbe newspapers we receive from Great Brltaii'. One number of tho Bunntr of Vlttcr has four columns io small type, ef reports of the various meetings held, chiefly In Belfast, on the previous Stbbatb, and at the conclusion opologizea to its readers by say- "So wide-spread we might almost say gen. eral is the revival movement, tbat it is quite impossible for us to preiiont anything like a full detail of its progress and results, or satisfactory notices a any but tho most prominent esses." Tbo same paper says: "The movement, which m'ust shortly arrest national attention, progreasot io a manner which is a subject of astonishment to all who witness it. There aro now comparatively few who are skeptical u to the serious and solemn character cf tbt manifestations, even among thoae who at first were skeptical." Rev. MoNaughten, speaking of tbo work, says: . . "Many connected with the Arian Church had been brought under interesting impressions, and tbey immediately abandoned Ari-aniam and refused to have anything mora to do witb it. And a number of the Roman Catholios, like tbe converts of old in similar circumstances, brought their books of Popish devotion, and made a bonfire of them, learning the valua of tho one Book the Word ot God. Tho Banner of Hitter, speaking of what is called "The Pound District," one of the worst sections of Belfast, says: . "We have beard of one instance io which three persons in one bouse were thus brought under conviotion; and, after a christian gon-tleman bad offered prayer, four or five others Wore brought under saving influence. We learn that on the nights of Saturday and Sunday at least one-bait of the people o' the locality were praying and singing fur tho greater part of tbe timo in tbeir houses." Tho Belfast Ntwt Litter says: "Tbis extraordinary movement is extend ing itself in Belfast in tbe moat rapid manner. Prayer-meetings are hold almost every even ing , a nd are attended by immense crowds.many of whom are effected with external symptoms. There is an evident outpouring of the spirit o' God in answer to believing, faithful prayer. Tbo most skeptical, who will but attend one ofthe meetings,now held in any of the churches or othet plaoea In this town, will be compelled to admit that the hand of tbe Lord is visibly at work, and that his blessing attends tbe means used for bringing sinners to seek happiness in a Savior's love. All evangelical de nominations have Joined in this good work, and success, marvelous success, has hitherto attended tbeir efforts. There are no empty pews now no unoccupied seats. Every evening the streets are crowded with hundreds and thousands who are wending their way not to the place of amusement not to join in the giddy dance not to attend either theater or eoncert.but with their bibles, hymn-books and psalm-books in their hands, eagerly pressing onward to the bouse of God to endeavor to obtain admission in time, so that tbey may therein hear instruction as to bow tbey shall escape farm tho City of Destruction, and at length roach the Celestial Kingdom. At the services conduoted in the different churches many have beon lead to aeek pardon, and many profeis to have obtained it, and are now going on their way rejoicing." A correspondent ef another paper, spouting of Rasharkin, a neighboring district, writes: "At a meeting held on the Sabbath in one the Presbyterian churches, while the speaker was calling on God tbat tbe Uoly Spirit might descend as with flro, a flash of lightning which filled the building at the moment struck the congregation with awe, and trembling with terror they prostrated themselves on the floor. Tbe scene was one which th9 most powerful language would halt in describing; and when it was recited by the speaker an eye-witness those who heard bim seemed to feel that God wu dealing in a marvelous manner with his people. On that occasion, ootcf a congregation of Ave huudred( there were one hundred cues of decided conviction. , Still another writor says: . . ."There is one peculiarity attaches to all who have been "enlightened," that is, that they seem only happy in each other's society, and it is no uncommon thing to see ten or. a dozen of those who have found peace meeting together to visit 'a sister,' who baa been, like themselves, brought to conviction. We ourselves saw a knot of these young girls the girl whom we left so weak half aa hour pre viously, to leave her bed, among the others witb bibles in their hands, going down the street on a visit of this nature. They have all a reverence for God'i wort, and delight to meet In prayer; and as even the most degraded class In the community, those who ere denominated 'unfortunates,', hu furnished in Balymena a eon vert to a lift of purity and peace, we ean have no hesitation in saying that the revival, so far from being, as some would have It, the rosult of the influence cf the 'evil one,' ia.an agency wielded by a Po er which 'doeth all things well,' and which we hop will be extended, and have an abiding pliee in our eountry." , , " ' .The physical manifestations, says the Presbyterian newspaper, we will not now attempt to account for. The presence and power of God's spirit In a most rernarkahle manner, Is beyond a doubt. ' It is worthy of note that this work Is (n a region where there have been tbe greatest Incredulity and the strongest prejudice as to rwivals. Communications. Fur lb ItepuMiuan, Verity vo. The Al E. Church. Un, Emtob; In common with Verity anil your readers geuerally, I have taken a deep interest in the discussion now in .progress between Revs. Browster and Whiteman. But not deeming it creditable in any one to meddle with the peculiar pbosea of their controversy, I had no thought of writing a word until tbe appearance of Verity ia your last issue, , As tbe allegations in Mr. Brewster's sermon were publicly made in this locality, it was meet that Mr. W. should, through the columns of a "local papor"vindicste the honor of those he believed to be slandered; and there can be no question as to the propriety of an attempt at proof through the same medium upon the part of Mr. B. - But as advantage is taken of tbe iuterest which this discussion excites to call attention and give publicity to other slanderousf accuxatiuog against the M. E. Church, which Verity, their moutb-piece, acknowledges hare, no direct rstevaucy to the former controversy, but which teem the out- gushing of malignant bigotry, ami obviously 'otroduced witb a view to a bearing in favor of bis friend B,, I feci fully warranted in a violation of neutrality in so far as to pay my compliments to Verity. And first "touching Verity's motives." He in his first communication disclaims all intention to involve any of the matters in contro versy between Rev. B. and Rev. W. and yet assails Mr. W.'s church, giving' srlous quota tions the obvious intention of which was to involve the truthfulness of statement made by Mr. W.; but says nothing In opposition to Mr, B. or his Church. Why is Verity so solicitous to ascertain the connection of-the M. E. Church with blavery just at this time? , Has that church shown herself so extremely pro-slavery beyond all her sister churches as to demand Ihe light of his investigation? Why not inquire into the connection of, the Prot. Episcopal, Presbyte rian or the Prot. Methodist churches? Although numerically less, they are highly re spectable and have long been not less than the M. E. Church connected with Blavery. ' Why don't you, Verity, with your holy horror of emasculation, pitch into these and prove your impartiality? I submit to the public: do not all tha circumstances s'amp verity's disclaimer of intention to interfere with the controversy between Revs. B. & W. with falsity instead otvtrityt Verity's laudation of the M. E. C. is not unlike the Pope's love of Protestantism; all that is wanting to doom her is tbe pow-r.His card is a compound in somewhat near equal parts of nonsonse and sophistry. Though tho former some little predominates. As a writor, ha is such a bungler as to say in his auiiuJitnneM just the opposite of what ho in tended. Thus he says: "The Independent is devoted to ridding the church of some of her useless lumbor such as tho office of presiding elder and lay representation iu the councils of said Church." What he obviously intonded to state is that tho Independent is devoted to the advocacy of Uy delegation. Not to ridding the Church of it as useless lumber. In section 3d of bis card ho makes a silly attempt to bo- witty. Hear him. "Verity is Inclined from sympathy and a snse or duty to aid the weak; hence if any assistance is rendered in the present dispute, it must be given ta Mr. W. Now that in his attack upon the church he assails Mr. W. and seeks to assist Mr. B, is, in view of all the circum stances, nndenrable.
