Stephens: "Come and see my canary bird that has Just died." "No," said Governor Stephens, "I cannot look at a dead bird with any composure; it makes me cry." Surely, if God declares his deep interest in the birds, we need not be ashamed of having a feeling of regard for them. How I sympathize with them, especially in the autumn, when they have to move. In many a tree top they, day after day, hold their semi-annual convention, moving and passing resolutions on the subject of migration; some proposing to go to-morrow, some moving to go today; some moving to go to Brazil, some to Florida, some to tbe table lands of Mexico, bat all unanimous in the fact that they must go soon; for they have marching orders from the Lord, written in the pictorial volume of the changing leaves. There is not a belted kingfisher, or a chaffinch, or a fire crested wren, or a plover, or a red legged partridge but expects to spend every winter at the south; for apartments are ordered for them in South America or Africa, and after thousands of miles of flight they stop in the same tree where they spent the previous January. In every autumn let them strew the continent with music. And whether from northern fields or Carolinian rice swamps or Brazilian groves, mem see their wings or bear their voices, may they bethink themselves of what Jeremiah said: "The stork in the heavens knoweth her appointed times; and tbe turtle,' and the crane, and the swallow observe the time of their ooming; but my people know not the judgment of tbe Lord." John the Baptist had excited sack interest In tbe minds of devout Jews, who hoped for a Messiah speedily, that soon after his death some of them came to Jesus and asked questions, showing that they believed or trusted that he was John returned to lite again. Josus retired for a while to a "dsssrt plans" on the north side of the Sea of Tibsrlaa. There he performed the miracle of "feeding the multitude," which is the subject of the second lesson of ths quarter. His remark* to the disciples teach the great lssson of compassion—that Christians must do all within their power to relieve physical suffering, as well as moral. How deeply this doctrine was implanted in the new system la shewn by one glorious and significant fact: Among the earliest acts of the Christians, after they obtained toleration, was the taauguratioa of hospitals, and of all the grand charitable institutions of the world today, not one In a hundred is under other than Christian dirsotion. The modern hospital system is the child of Christianity. Heathenism could point to its temples and altars, and InfldsMty boasts of some orators and public halls; but neither of them is capable of such sacrifices as are shown by the devoted women who walk in danger and pestilence to relieve the sick, and neither ever founded such Instltntions as moke glorious and immortal the names of so many benevolent Christians.
