Eita Kere of Carthage has reâ€" after a vistt to friends in Toâ€" MORNINGTON. | Along the Atlantic seaboard when the darkness of night spread a black lmantle over sea and earth, a terrible storm arose. Colder and fiercer came ‘ each blast of the morthetn gale. Mrs. Darling unhappily accompanied _ her l,husband on this trip. All were lost! ‘ Those living far inland cannot reâ€" ‘alize the dread and wild terror of a 'great storm at sea. The shock of the waters beating against the quivering, tossing, heaving bark, the shricking noises of the fearful wind as it tears by masts, sails and rigging. The noise and commotfon without is met by terror, uncertainty and despair | within. Amid all you can see the | manly form of the veteran sea capâ€" | tain, calm and firm, sailing from the stormy sea on carth to the infinite sea of the hereafterâ€"going to his God with the clear ringing words of duty heard by the perishing men in ‘| the wild â€"and fearful roar of the | storm. Storms At Sea.â€"While the readers of these columns were bying snug in their warm beds, out upon the broad Atlantic adjacent to the Bay of Funâ€" dy a terrible storm prevailed. Waves now rolling. mountains high, now yawning to mreasureless depths, sent hopeless terror and wild despair into the hearts of bold and hardy seaâ€" man. Vessels were storm tossed and driven shoreward towards the f:til and death destroying reefs. Such was the fate of Captain Darâ€" ling and crew wrecked off Delaware Capes. What To Read.â€"Now that the long winter nights at an earlier hour fling a datk covering over the frozen earth improve the intellectual powers by the opportunity is given to all to improve the intellectual powers: by reading and study. The taste â€"for good literature increases with adâ€" vancing years, and supplies additionâ€" al sources of pleasure with each long winter season. What books are most desirable? They must be classed according to the age and capacity of the reader. Every public school should contain a choice library of books that would be attractive to the minds of. childâ€" ren. The educaiiona!l department now clfers admirable facilitics for obtainâ€" ing on most generous terms suth libâ€" raries for the use of children. 3 Every rural village should put forâ€" ward a special effort to establish a good public library. The inspiraticn imparted by ‘the prerusal of good books often produces a lasting imâ€" pression for good on the mind of the reader, just in the same manner as associating with a good and wise companion gives an ‘uplift to the whole tenor of a life. The perusal of good books imparts a_ loftier tone to the mind of the reader, . implants beautiful thoughts and higher ideals that make life nobâ€" ler and more desirable. . Poctry and biography, science and history, art and theology, all unâ€" fold their pages to the cager student. Tennyson <and Carlyle, Huxley and MacAulay, Ruskina and Farrar, | all open their glorious and immortal thoughts to the seeker after knowâ€" ‘edge and light. The following is a copy of the renâ€" dering by Wyclifie in 1380 of Mark, 1st chapter, verses 1 to 6. The spellâ€" ing of English words was not yet fixed in a permanent form: ‘"‘The 'bigynn_vng(- of tiie gospel of ihesus crist the sone of god, as it is writun in Isaic the profete: lo 1 sende myn anngel befor thi face: that shal make redi thi weye befor thee. The vois of a crict in desert: make ye redi the weye of the Lord: make ye hise pathis rigt. 6 And al the cuntri of ijudee wenten out to hym: and al men of icrusalem, and thei weren pabtised of hym in the flum iordan and knowâ€"lechiden bei synnes. And ijon was clothed with becris of camels and a girdil of skyn was about his lendis; and he ete honysoukis and wilde hony." The reader will notice the use . of the word "Alum" for riverâ€"from latâ€" in "Aumen," a river. The letter "J" was not yet intro@uced, and "i" was used instead of J. The etymological study of old Engâ€" lish shows that at this period : the language was undergoing a rapid transition. HMere is a specimen from the translation of 1380 as a literary curiosity, showing the condition of the .orthography of that day. _ Norâ€" man French, which had long been the language of the courts, had not yet been wholly superseded by the generâ€" al and increasing use of "middle Engâ€" lish."
