Washington had th s hahit of praying to God for help nnd prosperity. A cer tain day Washington spent by himself alone in his chamber, and when be came out he looked unusually pallid. Then he related aa follows: “As I sat this afternoon writing and m y mind was deeply weighed down with trouble, I discovered opposite me a most beautiful female form. I was much surprised, for I had given most peremptory orders n o t to be disturbed by any ono. I cou]d not, on tbe mo ment, find words to inquire of tbis un looked for visitor. Three or lour times I inquired without receiving an answer. She only elevated her eyes a little. I now felt a most extraordinary sensation throughout my wholo body. I would havo risen up, b u t the staring of my mysterious visitor made me dis pleased with her. I attempted again to address h e r b u t my tongue was tied. A certain unknown, mysterious, irre sistible power overpowered me. I was unable to do anything moro than to store at tho apparition. By degrees the room became filled with a remark able lig h t ; tbe imago herself became suddenly luminous and b right I now had tha feeling of a dying person. I could not thina, reflect, or move. I am only conscious of this fact, tlmt I looked sternly on tho vision. “Hero I heard tho voieo baying, -Son of tho Republic, look and learn,' nt the same time the figure stretched out h er arm and pointed with hor fingor east ward. Transparent clouds arose in the distance ; and theso lifting themselves, there was formed a most astonishing figure. Before mo thoro spread all the countries of Europe, Asia, Africa and America. Before E urope and America I saw tremendous waves brandishing; and also between America and Asia. Again tho voice repeated, ‘Son of tho Republic, look and learn.’ Instantly I beheld a darksomo image, as of an angel, poising between Europe and America. He dipped water with both bands, and with his right hand he poured it on America, and with his left Land h e poured i t ou Europe. Iu a moment black clouds arose from both countries, which met half way upon the Atlantic. Here they tarried awhile, and then moved westward, nnd then covered the terra firma of America. Livid lightnings flashed through tho dark clouds. I heard tho deep gronn- ings of the American people. “Again tho angel dipped and sprink led water ns before, then the dark clouds recoded and sauk into tho ocoan. Now for the third time I heard the voice, ‘Son of the Republic, look and learn.’ I looked up and saw in America populous towns and cities, and improvements spreading from the borders of tho Atlantic to tho coast of the Pacific. Upon tbis tho dark augel turuod toward tho South; ond I saw a horrid grizzly spectre approaching from Africa to our town and lands 1 The population now part one against the other. As I contemplated this scene, I discovered an angel of light, and on his bend he had a glorious crown with tho word ‘Union’ inscribed. In his band be bore the American ban ner and cried out, ‘Remember you are brethren.’ Immediately the armed hosts throw down their weapons, be came friends, nnd marshaled under tho Star Spangled Banner. “Again I heard the mysterious sound, ‘Son of the Republic, look and learn.’ The second danger has passed over. A id now I saw cities and towns and fields increasing in numbers till the wholo land was thickly covered, from the Atlantic to the Pacific ; and the people' were as tho stars of tho firmament and the sands of the'soff innumerable. “Again I hoard ’Son of the Republic, the ond of ono century is approaching, look up aud lonrn.’ Upon this tho dark angol sot a trumpet to his mouth and blasted thrico, nnd dipped water with his hands and poured it on Asia, Europe and Africa. Now my eyes be held a most terrible scone. From oach of theso countries arose black and heavy clouds which united in one groat m ass; through thoso Bproad lurid light ning, and I beheld immonse legions of armed multitudes, marching nnd sail ing towards America, which soon wore enveloped in tho black clouds. And now I beheld how theso immonse armies wasted nnd burned om- towns and cities. And now I heard the thun der of cannon, the furious clash of tho swords, and tho war shouts of millions encountered in deadly strife. “I again heard the mysterious sound, ‘Son of tho Republic, look and learn.” After this tbo dark angol gave anothor loud, long and fearful b last Now sud denly broke forth and dispersed the black clouds from over tho American country. After this I saw the angol with tho glorious crown inscribed, •Union,’ descending from heaven ac companied by legions of glorified spirits, having in one hand a sword and in the othor tho Star Spangled Banner. “Now again, amid tho din of battle, I hoard the voice, ‘Son of the Repub lic, look up and learn.’ After tbe re port of his voice, the dark angel for tho last timo, dipped water and sprinkled it on the American Continent, when tho'dark clouds with thoir armies rolled back instantly, leaving tho glorious victory to tho Americans. Then I saw villages, towns and cities nnd improve ments arise liko magic, whil# the angel of light planted tho Star Spangled Ban ner amid the vast multitudes of people atd cried, ‘As long as tho stars of heaven endure and the dew falls upon tho earth, so long shall this Republic endure.’ And while ho took and sot it upon the Star Spangled Banner, tho vast multitudes bending under it, unitedly cried out, ‘Amen.’ ‘Now by dogrees the vision vanish ed, leaving nothing but the mysterious nnd very beautiful female figure, who once more said, ‘Son of tho Republic, what thou hast seen is thus to he ex pounded :—Three great and danger ous calamities will come over this Re public ; tho second is the greatest. ■\Vhcn this event shall come, then the whole world cannot conquer it. Now let every citizen o f this Bopublic learn to servo God, his fatherland nnd tho blessed Union.’ With these words tbe imago disappeared. I oroso from my chair with tho full conviction that this was a revelation to mo of tho birth of this Republic, its progress and its varied destinies.” Ml this history, says Mr. Sherman, I myself heard from the mouth of Gen. Washington. AN ACCOMPLISHED LEADER. n v OEOHOE W. 1‘ECK. Tlioodoro Thomas acts ot all times ns if ho was about to ask a girl to dance with him, and didn’t want hor to think lie was very anxious about being re fused. When his players havo all got on the stage, aiul wiped their meustaohes, and hrushod tho sausage skins off their vests, and picked the cheeBO out of tlieir teeth with a broom splintor, he looks at them iu a pitiful sort of a way, raises his choir-round in his right hand, and lots it wove gently, when an isola ted fiddlor begins to peunk on the E string, lie is soon joined by anotho one, who echoes back his sentiments, when another chips in a remark dero gatory to the character of tho first fiddler, all the other fiddlers immedi ately call him nnother, tho hassviols throw off thoir coats and go in to seo what is the rumpus, a horn or two has something to say, and in about a min ute-tho row is so unanimous that you want to get behind, a barrel, when sud denly you notice Mr, Thomas, with his magic wand ; tho riot coasos, gradually, until tliore are only two fiddles and a flute engaged, u 1 finally they die in the harness, a.. 1 ill is quiet aud peace ful, aud you i • k around instinctively for the killed and wounded. Thomas sooms to have his musiciansriglit where ho wants them, and they oboy every move as though lie had a red hot wire wound around their ears. Ho has a whole flock of Ole Halle in one corner, ■and you would naturally think they would try to ii- .il each other in noise, and that thoro would bo jealousy, b u t Thomas handles them as gently as though everyone had a ring in h is nose. Ho don’t allow any shirking in hia orchestra. At times you will see a few fellows who are not playing, whilo the rest are whooping it up for all tbat is out, and you wonder if they nro not playing it ou the old man, but pres ently, wlion you think he isn’t looking, ho will wiggle his little finger in the direction of the fellows who have a soft thing, and they will grab their instru ments and begin to saw right where thoy loft off, and they will catch up with the procession, too. There is one thing about Thomas, and that is that he makes his orchestra stop when they got through. That is something that nn orchostra ought to learn tlio first thing, to stop all in a heap. Often we have thought the beauty of a piece of musio has been marred by tho orches tra gotting through iu reliefs, and stop ping one at a lim ■, tho fiddler, for in stance, playing lo the ond and laying down his fiddle, while the trombone player is still jamming condensed wind with an expression ns though saying, “Pray for mo that I may hold out faithful to tho end,\ while tho wood sawyer who plays tho bass viol thinks ho will get through in timo to com mence the next piece. To a cultivated audience such a scono is paiuful, nnd it is a pleasure to seo that Mr. Thomas’ crowd of playors have learned to stop whon they g et through, as though thoy had heen shot On Tuesday ovening the orchestra played “The Damnation of Faust,” and it was grand. Wo couldn't oxactly got the run of the thing, b u t concluded that Faust was probably a Democrat who had shook tho party and gone in with tho Grecnbackors, and that the Stato Central Committee had got together to damn him. I t was a suc cess anyway. Tho complaining wit ness, tho first fiddler, seemed to tell what ho knew of the cause, being con stantly iulem iptod by friends of Mr. Faust. Tho investigation proceeded for a fow minutes when all of tho in struments took a hand at denouncing Faust ns a traitor, uutil finally tho com mittee decided thnt ho should be branded with a red hot iroD, and the instruments proceeded to make it hot for him. Ho struggled somo, but it was no use, and in the end he got his deserts, the orchestra played soft and low, to soothe the pain of the branding, and it was over. 1VHAT MADE THE MINISTER FORGET. Van Schaick is a most accommo dating man, and tho good p astor of his church wanted to borrow his horse and buggy to go o u t on the Wliitofish Bay road to look up a location for a Sunday school picnic, and Van said that was all right, he could have the horse nnd wel come. I t should bo remarked that Van’s family horse, Richwood, has a record of 2:28, though to soo him come joggiug down tho streot hauling his owner to business, nobody would think he was fast. The good preacher took Richwood and jogged along up Pros pect avenue and out to the toll gate. The minister was looking at tho boau- tiful groves along tlio road, selecting trees to p u t up swings, and tlion seeing better trees ahead, until finally he g o t up to Ferny Brro, when Richwood turned his loft ear backward and b e gan to chow the bit. The minister, who used to handle horses beforo ho bogan to handle sinners, felt a nervous shock as though a black bass had struck his minnow. Just then he look ed around, and a man was coming up behind driving a p air of red pacers to a yellow wagon. The pacers were go ing pretty well, and the driver, In a voice louder than the minister had over heard outBido a revival, shoutod “ga lang.” Richwood evidently felt that a challengo h ad been issued to him, and lie jumped into the air about six feot and came down on a square trot, and went up the road as though ho never had a Sunday school picnic on his mind. At the first jump the horee made tho minister oome near going over backwards, and ae it was, lie only hung on b y the calves of his legs aa* the lines, b u t he righted himself, save* his hat and pulled hard and yelled \whoa.” There had been an under standing between Van and Richwood tbat when he said “whoa\ the hone should go for all that waa oat, and he did.' The gentlemen with the paoen, who d id not know that he wan racing with a minister, k ept yelling, nnd peo ple up the road got oat the way, The minister could not have been more surprised if all the brothers-in-law ia his church had come forward to th* anxious seat, and he was aoBMWhlt annoyed whon he eaw several aeqnnia- tances witnessing the race. Alter p i n ing the woods they slacked up Md turned around, and all three of tho horses walked while they took abreaih- ing spell. The driver of the poeor* who had on a jockey cap, and who had a swift appearance generally, drove up alongside the minister, and it was somo stranger who had eoroe to town on the sly to take in the hoys on a horse race, winked at the poor creature and said: “Boas, that if • pretty sudden horee you got there. Wlioro’d you pick him up?\ The poor man felt as though he would sink, and asked the pacing man if there was ao way of getting back to town without going down that awfnl road. He w m told h e could turn off to the right and go over by Ludeman’* on the river, and keep out of sight, and that was the last seon of him. When he drove up to Van’s born, i t is said he remarked to Van, “ Brother Van Sohaick, you have a very fleet animal,\ and Van said, “Good gracious elder, you haven’t boen speeding him, have you ?” While they were unhitching the hone the eldor told tho story, and said he was afraid ho had been ruined by the h o n e, hut Van told him that was aU noneenae, as he had been driving the horee for years and ho had never been ruined. “B u t how about tho picnic grounds?” asked Van. “I swan, I forgot all about picking out a place for the picnic.”— Peck's Sun.
