TWELVE JIUNDItED THOUSAND DOLLAllS FROM ALL SUUKCE8 FOH MISSIONS

IN 1888.

Two-thirds of the infant children of tlie Sandwich Islands, before the advent of Missions, were strangled or burned alive.

The Pope characterizes the British and Foreign and American Bible Societies as “moral pests.” Yet there are more mur­ders in the district .of Which Naples iti the centre than in all England put together in any one year. But popes, cardinals and priests never learn anything from facts. They are bomb-proof, triple-plated with egotism, and riveted with Ignorance. .

; : Eleven years' ago Daniel Jfolife,■ a hea­then living In i^fatal, became converted. Two years after lie went to Fourteen Streams, where lie found the people with­out the Gospel. He began work among them, opening to them the Scriptures, teaching them to redd, and finally organ!z. ing a church and erecting a house of. wor­ship. For six years he labored in this way without receiving the help of a mis­sionary.

A violent thunder storm once preserved tlie town of Basle from the shells of the Russians and Hungarians, who were be­sieging tho place. Tlie pious people, in gratitude, founded a training school for Christian missionaries. This was the origin of the Basle Missionary Society, •which has sent out over five hundred de­voted men to tlie beatlien.

Tho date of the year is a continual re­proach to tho Christian Church. I t is a standing advertisement of its delay in car­rying the good news of salvation to a dy­ing world, according to the Master’s last command. Tliere comes the following striking story from Mr. William DunCan,

, missionary to the Metlakahtia Indians. H e says: “ I was teaching the Indians to write letters, and as a matter of course, be­gan with the name of the place at which the letter was supposed to be written. About that step tliere was nothing to call forth any remark from the Indians. Next came tho name of the month. That elicit­ed some 6miles, but no questions. W'hent however, I added 1800 for the year, then immediately the Indians inquired, * What do those figures mean ? Why was tlie year so named?’ For the moment I was Stun­ned at tho answer which the last question called lor. Never before bad I realized tlie startling meaning of those figures in connection with tho Gospel, and how se­verely they witnessed against the Chris­tian Church. The Indians at once seemed to seize witli awe the information I offer­ed on tho subject, iindt heir looks too plain- ly indicated both rbproach and astonish­ment that the message of God should have been withheld from them so long. I felt,3* adds Mr. Duncan, “ both ashamed aud hu- mlliated for my race, and wondered how so many generations of Christians since tho apostolic age could have dared, as they havo done* to so willfully and fatally ne­glect, or at tlie best but trille .witli, their Lord’s'com uilssiVm.—Baptist Magazine.

What a brief record was the life of H;\r* n e t Newell! At 17 she mourned over the pagou world; at 13 went forth as Newell's bride: at 19 she tiled a stranger lu a strauge land before sho found rest for the sole of her foot. Mr. Nott said of the effect of her death, a lmlf-century later, it was one

of the providential and gracious aids to. the establishment of the first Foreign Mission, and strengthening of the pur­poses of survivors. “ The alabaster box was not broken in vain.” Leonard Woods wrote her life. It has been widely circu* lated, und hits made many a missionary. Its simple story of heroic self-sacrifice drew tears from a million eyes, and inci­ted hundreds to a like devotion to Christ and soiils.

No long life ' could have blessed the Church as that early death. The effect may be traced in many ways. The me­moirs of Harriet Nowell fell into the hands of a woman in the towns.of Smyrna, N. Y. A revival began in her heart, then in her home, and then in that region. Two evangelical churches were the immediate, fruits, and men and women were born again who have become heralds of the cross. -

Dr. Bartlett*well suggests that tlie influ­ence of that lonely grave on the isle of France is greater than that of the world’s great captain at St. Helena. . Samson’s death brought more disaster to the foes of God than his life had effected. May It not be that her death was a greater blessing than her life would have been?

The -box of precious ointment was in­deed broken on Jesus’ feet, but the house was filled with the sacred odor arid the perfume is not yet lost. Her dying words were: 411 have no regret that 1 left my native land' for Christ; I t was. in my heart like David to do a work for God, arid my desire is accepted of the Lord.”—-Mission' ary Jlctietc of March.

11Y AUH1E MILLS.

The cold winter has seemed very short to me, and full of blessings. Only a. few days have been spent in my room, and it has been difficult in my constant goings to note much with my pen. After, more than two months absence I returned to Rockford, and began to arrange for work on the wonted lines, when a sudden call came from Wisconsin. This ‘hitherto un­visited spot is located eighteenMiles north of . Galena. Taking a train on the North­western road at 2 p . m . I was obliged to tarry somewhere • over night, and chose Freeport as my resting place, I found the Baptists were having revival meetings, and so I looked in upon them, was recog­nized, and invited to give an exhortation after tho pastor’s sermon.

Taking a hasty breakfast the next morn­ing, and hurrying- to the depot, I waited an hour for a belated train.- Nevertheless I arrived at Galena before noon, and could not leave until 5- p. m., so I began to explore that strange, odd city. The prin­cipal street runs along the base of a steep cliff, and is irregular and narrow.. Cross streets branch off here and there, und pro; ceed skyward, being supplied with numer­ous flights of stairs. Slowly ascending the prospect became more anti more pic­turesque, and extended until at length we stood on the top of the cliff and surveyed all the region roundabout. Here were delightful looking residences, amid pleas­ing surroundings. '

I found the Methodist parsonage mid­way, as if clinging to the rocks, or hid in the cleft of some ono of these. After a very pleasant'call, I set out to see some other members of the Lord’s family. De­scending- a flight of steps, we rang, the front door bell, and were admitted.to the hall, from' which we descended to the parlor, a story below. From the windows of this 1 looked down to the street far below, on the opposite side, of the house from that which I hud eutered. Amid ever varying scenes tlie time sped quickly and I returned to the depot, where I found a littlo freight train was, in read­iness to convey animate, arid' inanimate freight over into Wisconsin, The caboose was of the most primitive style, where a mother and* her three little .ones were already settled, if that word can be u>ed with regard to children,, who have learned the use of their hands and feet. Besides these there were several male passengers. A large mill was the only 'bulldiuir of note at the first stopping place. Two other stations marked on my time table I failed to discover, but. In good time we reached Cuba City, a pleasant village where meetings were being held in the Methodist church. ;

During my stay there, the kind-hearted people- endeared themselves.to me, -and I had the happiness of seeing some of them delivered from the power of darkness and translated into the kingdom of God's dear Sou. A Uiuw,. followed by a sudden change to snow. and cold, caused trouble to the little trains on that .branch railroad. On Saturday night the cars ran into a drift, and wero/not extricated until Mon'*

d.iyj though the Sabbath hours were spent by the employees in shoveling snow. After a.few days a cold rain loaded the trees heavily witli ice, but It grew warmer before the wind rose, so the' damage was much less than it otherwise would have been. , \> .■: ' - . ■ ■.1i '_

On.myhomeward journey, I stopped at Recatonica, only a few miles . west of Kockford, and spent a Sabbath-there j with a friend who was one of the. .Chicago Training Sclioolj pupils last Spring. >, She wiis home for a short time only, being en­gaged .in' Home Missionary .Work in Wis­consin..V Tliere being no evening service in the church she attended that Sabbath she arranged for me to give a Bible Head­ing at her home. I t was a season of bless­ing to some,: and on Monday morning I came on home, with a heart full of praise to Him who had guarded and guided my footsteps, and who now permits me to enjoy the quiet of my room again.

There is but little snow ou the ground here. The air is bracing and the sun very bright. The .good people' here are pre­paring for the coming Of an evangelist, who is to hold a Union meking among the churches on this side city,. Rockford^ March 7th, 1888.

Dr. Munhall in Buffalo.Buffalo has been characterized as one of

the “ Lost Cities.” Thero are some reasons for it. There are about 230,000 inhabitants here; about 40,000 of them are Homan Catholic; not more than 20.000 are mem bers of evangelical churches. Thero are upwards of 2,000 saloons in the city which are kept open seveh days every 'week The population has large foreign elements iu it—chlelly German, Hungarian and Italian. The newspapers are not favora­bly disposed toward religious work, with possibly one exception. Church-going is at a very low ebb—empty pews being the rule In most of tho Protestant churches. A few of our churches, individually, have had some special, evangelistic work done, with pretty good results, in the last twenty years. A general revival movement has not been made in this city within the mem­ory of the present generation. Indeed there is a,deep-seated opposition upon the part of many in the churches to such move­ments, strange as It may seem. This has caused a critical spirit.upon tlie part of those who have attended the present meet. Ings, which had to be overcome before much could be done.

Last November the pastors of the Central Presbyterian, Asbury Methodist, Hudson Street Baptist, arid First Congregational Churches decided to unite tiieir forces and undertake an aggressive campaign. • They tried to induce other churches to join them, but did uot succeed. Messrs. Munimll and Towner were invited to lead tiie movement. They accepted and the work' was beguu Sunday, Feb. 5 ,ISSS. Two meetings have been held each day, save Saturday, since the beglnniug—a Bible reading service at 3 i’. m . week days and evangelistic meeting at nigh*. The meetings have all been held in the Central Presbyterian Church, which is centrally located and has an actual sear­ing capacity of 1,7S-*>. (hough three hun­dred extra seats can be added. There has been an .average daily attendauce upon the Bible readings, from, the first, of about eight hundred. . In these meetings a half, hour is <pent each day iu prayer and song, and tiie rest of tlie time occupied by the leader in expounding the word of. Gcd, The old doctrines of the Bible baye been dwelt upon. These meetings have been of Incalculable benefit to Christians, and tlie good results must be abiding.

At night and on Sunday afternoons great audiences have been gathered, many of them larger than ever seen in the city as- sembled in the interest of any; Christian; enterprise by the oldest inhabitants. This is especially true of the four special meet- ,i rigs :• two for. young • people between the age of ’ twelve aud ■ twenty.five, one’ • for

women only, and one for youths and yoiing men only; There were fully :300 profes­sions in the two meetings for young peo­ple. . ' These meetings were wonderfully full of power and promise. How pastors and Sunday-school teachers, and parents too, rejoiced In seeing tlie blessed results of their patient, faithful labors in the con­version of these hundreds? Quite 2,.300 women were crowded into the church at the meeting for women only, and fully 1,000 others were unable to get in. There were upwards of one hundred cbnfessioris of Christ as Saviour, in this meeting..■ But, without doubt, the ; most; remarkn hie of n il. the meetings ' was tlie one. for youths iind young men only, between the ages of ^fourteen: arid thirty-live.. Fifty thousand tickets of ad mission were issued. These were .carried Into the shops, Stores, offices, saloons and- given out on the street corners nnd at the door-ways gf the theatres. All classes of young men were present in such numbers as to pack tlie house, and hundreds wero turned away, unable to get in. Fully 500. arose arid asked the prayers of Christian people, arid over 200 . openly confessed Christ and thushegan the Chris- tian life.. Prof. and Mrs. Towner were obliged to leave after after ten days, which somewhat disarranged; the singing. . But Mr. and Mrs. Willson.and daughter most opportunely happened along and were in­duced to remain and give the benefit .of their valuable services. Mrs.. Wilson is a sister of the late P. P. Bliss.

Four weeks was the limit placed upon the duration of the meetings, but, as the Interest Is now greater than • at any time, the pastors aud committee have decided to continue the work a week longer.

No sensational methods have been used. The careless have been warned, the world­lings have been reproved, and sin has been rebuked with great plainness, faithfulness, tenderness arid love. The preaching has beenjn the power of the Holy Ghost.

Fully eight hundred persons have made public profession of fuitli in Christ Up wards of six hundred of them have already handed in their names and declared their church preferences; representing seven different churches. And “ still; there's more to follow.”—Xew Vork Ob.icrccr.

in us this, new creature, who is patient and humble and jmselfish. And there is no other Way to get it. There Is no trick

[ about i t . . Oh, truth iies In that!—we love others, we love everybody, we love our

A Question of Cause and Effect.'We strive for love. We brace our wills

to get it. We make laws for ourselves. And we pray for it. These things will not bring love Into our nature. Love is an effect. It is a question of cause and effect; und if you fulfill the right condition, you must have the effect produced in you

Shall I tell you what the cause of love Is? If you turn, when you get home, to the Revised Version of the EpistJes- of John, you will find there these words:

We love because He first loved us.” “We love”—not, “ We love Him." That is the way the old version' has it, and It is wrong, 1‘ We love because He first loved us.” Look at the word “ because.” There is the cause of which I have spoken.. “ B e ­ca u se H e first loved us.” The effect fol­lows that we love Him—we love all men. Our heart is slowly changed. Because He loves us, we love.

Contemplate the love of Christ, and you will love Him. Stand before that, and you will be changed unto the same Image, from tenderness to tenderness. There is no other wav. You cannot love to order. You can only look at the lovely object, and 'fall in love with it. You canuot com- ,'mand yourself to do it. And so look at the great sacrifice of Chri>t, as He laid down His life all-through life, and at His death upon the Cross of Calvary ; arid you must love Himl Love begets love. It is a .process of induction., You put a piece of iron iu the mere presence of rtn electri- fied body, aud that piece of tyon;for a time becomes.electrified. It.becomes a tempo­rary magnet in the presence of a perma­nent maguet, and as long as you leave the two side.by side, they are both .magnets. Remain side by side-with Him who loved us, and gave Himself for us, and you, too, will become a permanent magnet--a per­manent attractive. forcer and like Him you will iu aw till men—be they white men Or black men-.-unto you. This is the inevitable effect of love. Any man who fulfills that cause must have that effect produced in him.

Edward Irving went to see a dying bov once, and when lie entered the room, he just put his hand ou; the sufferer’s head,' and said, “ My boy, God loves you,,v and went away. And the boy started from his bed, and lie called out to the people in the house,'*-God Joves me! .God loves me!" One woid; one word! I t changed that boy. The sense that God loved him had over­powered him; melted him down, and be- gun the.making of a new heart

Aud that.is how the love of God melts down the unlovelv heart lu us.* and begets

enemies, because He first loved \w.- B n tn u n o n d .

A Christian.'I he Punditu Kauiabai does not find it

easy to tell what denomination she belongs to. A reporter asked- the question,- and she answered:

“ I belong to the universal Church of Christ. I meet good Baptists, Methodists, Episcopalians and Presbyterians,. anti cuch one tells me something different about tlie Bible. So it seems to me better to go there myself and find the best I can. A ml there I find Christ the Saviour of the world, and to Him I give my heart, was baptized when I was in England and I commune with all Christian people who allow me to do so. I do not profess to be of any particular denomination, for would go back to India simply us a Chris- tian. • To my mind it appears that the New Testament, and especially the words of our Saviour, are a sufficiently elaborate creed. 1 believe as the Saviour has told us, and his message through John has has come to us, that God is a spirit, in light, and love; in liis threefold nature. lie creates, Illuminates, and pervades tlie; universe ; that Jesus, his Son and servant, the Apostle of 'our faith, was sent by Him to be otir Saviour; and leader of the chil­dren; that as many as believe on Him have the right to be the sons of God, and that the Holy Spirit Is our Guide and Comforter, the great gift of God through Christ; that there is but one Church, and that all who acknowledge Jesus as their Saviour are members of thiit Church. I believe that whatever is needed for my salvation will be given me, and I pray earnestly that God may grant me the grace to be a seeker and follower of truth and a doer of his will.' . . I am simply a Christian, and the New Testament teaches me my religion.” . '

Talk about “ reaching the masses,” I believe the way to do it is to go right at it and reach them. There is no doubt of. it, they are “ reachable.” I’ve tried it over and over again with the same glorious re­sults. '

While holding meetings at Wilkesbarro, Pa., where the Sheldon Axle Company have their works, employing some six or seven hundred men, at noon we went up for a twenty minutes service. The pulpit was a work bench, the congregation was men in overalls, of nil creeds and lio creeds. The attention was never better in a Fifth Avenue Church. The sermon was straight- out oosi'KL, and they liked It. Liked it much. The result—men going to church, conversions, a new idea of Christ and Christianity. Last week tlio superinten­dent of the-works,^-'Mr. O. C. Hall, a fine Christian man, called the converts together in his office, asked them If they would like to have a noonday meeetlng weekly, and with relish they began it% Now It goes on as well as did the church iu Ceasur’s household.

These rioon meetings were also held in the Lehigli Valley Hall road shops and the Hazard Wire Rope C'o's., all with the same results. .

Lel's go after them. I tell you weican reach the unreached if there is a mind and heart to do i t .

The Only Trus Conqueror,When Christ is in us, He enters into

combat with the evil spirits ‘who inhabit the. wilderness o f our souls.

The resurrection of Christ' establishes liis Kingship for the remaining ‘ages - of time and cycles of eternity—a King and Conqueror, over death and tlie grave. I low tenaciously the Apostles held to this glor­ious doctrine as they went forth preaching

Jesus and the resurrection,v is perceived in all. the “acts*1 and incidents- of .the per­iod following Pentecost. They announce' the" apparently incredible statement in every sermon, tinil repeat it wherever they find, art aud i.enc e i n Asi a Minor; Attica and the Roman .Empire, ‘-beginning at Jeru- salem,” that he who died, rose again.

Down the centuries the story has been rehearsed with a joy more solemn and pro­found than could be possible in connec­tion with any other event of time. I t was a cheering song the night the angels ap­peared over Bethlehem’s manger, when Christ was born, and well may the world keep up in festal commemoration the fact of his coming: but when he left the grave immortality bursts forth into full-orbed manifestation, 'the *. gloomy shadows of this valley of tears roll back before a rising and cloudless sun, and hu­manity at large is made the heir of eternal life, as His purchased,gift. • •

The Easter season is full of suggestive ness regarding the debt of stuful millions paid upon the cross, the claims ol a risen Saviour on universal love, trust and ador­ing praise, motive to accept and follow His triumphant standard to iinal consumma­tions of victory, and the courage which makes every votary of- the Cross iiivin. cible, and certain of salvation.

Ths 'Wilkes'carre Esvival,A local paper contains the following

sketch of the farewell meeting:*‘At the closing of Mr. Y at man's work

at Wilkesbarre, Pa., a. meeting of- the ■1,200 inquirers was1 held. The pastors who had assisted Mr. Yatman in his labors occupied the platform. Mr. Yatman then spoke for forty minutes on. the duties re­quired of convert-, and of the responsibil­ities they had undertaken. He carefully told them their obligations, instructed them in the ordinances of the Church, told them he .wished them , to choose their own church, but wanted them ns families to attend the same,church.

The converts:were then test ed as to their determination to run the rice to the end, first by a show of hands, then after.further instruction, by rising to their feet, then by all audibly saying I tciU, with the minis­ters present as witnesses.. Mr. Yatman, tilled with emotion, offered a brief, prayer asking God’s blessing up6n them. The eleven ministers then came down iu front of the altar rail and linked hands, Mr. Yatman in the centre.

Sunday. ,ltey. II. Belting, having been reutrried, was greeted l>y a large congrega­tion, who welcomed, him .as their pastor for another year. As appropriate to’ tiie' occiision, the following passage was an hounced as a - t e x t “ For we are: laborers, together wiilt GihV’t- I Cor.-3: ” Asso 'ciatetl Cliristiah Work• •.wiis the theme of discourse. . . ■ ,

The *•; Connthians had become divided itmong- thetnselves;, one said, “ I am of Paul,” atul * another, “ I- am of Apollos.” By this their interests beenitie divided, and the cause of God hindered. Tiie de-sign of church qrganiziition and tiie pastoral relation is, to do gooii to .oufselves-—the ed I fying of vthe; body of Christ and tiie conversion of souls.: This : cannot be ' ac­complished without mutual cooperation. Negligence, or imprudence on the part of the pastor may 'hinder it-, and the Svith- holdirig of mutual aid : and sympathy on the part of the people may. prevent suc-cess/x ' • • . :-?:l \ ■ -r: v ■ •

Christian work is a requirement of the GospeLv There is no more need to prove this than to prove that prayer is a phris- tian duty;; atid. yet how many there are who forget it. The Idea is too prevalent thut religion is the passive reception o l the grace and love of God. The Master re- quires work. Hoarded gold is of no prac­tical value. The grace, of God is of value as it works in us to will and to do of God’s good pleasure. “ Xo man lighteth a can­dle and putteth it under a bushel.” £uch a course would soon extinguish the light Our graces grow by using them. The works of faith, prayer, self-denial, cross- bearing, «5cc., ure personal duties, and must be discharged In order to please God. The. faithful discharge of these personal duties will -be a suitable preparation for doing good to others. “ No man liveth to himself.*’ Doing good .to others is regarded in the General Iiulesas an evidence of our desire of salvation for ourselves. The question is often asked, “ What good can I do?** We can attend the church services and thus encourage others by our presence. Y>*e can invite some one to come with us, to share in the blessings of divine worship. We can give a book,,or a paper, or a tract. We can speak an encouraging word to some one who may be despondent We may lead some child to Sunday-school, as Mother Stoner did with a little boy who was converted through her instrumentality and who afterwards*became Bishop Wiley, of the M. E. Church. “ If you want a field of labor you can find it anywhere."

The text says—“ we are workers togeth- er,” implying mutual interest. The Church does not belong to the pastor solehv Of course every wise paistor w ill seek to iden­tify himself intimately with everything-in the church, which be serves. The same should be true of the members, for it is a partnership w ork for receiving and doing good. This secures systematic and dis­tributed labor, whereby more is done and better results a te realized. We see how this works in the world of commerce, manufacture and education. If one man was compelled to make an entire watch the cost of manufacture would be greatly increased, and yet the work would not be so well done. So of all the others. There is a gain also in the inspiration resulting from the experience, counsel and successes of other laborers. A victory gained by one is an inspiration to all the rest' When Gen. Sherman was victorious it sent a thrill of patriotic joy through the whole army

We are also *• workers together ’ uith God." It is this that gives power and eili- ciency to our Avork. •• Xot by m ight uor by power; but by my Spirit sdith the Ij:»rtl.’V c»ur mistake too often is in mak­ing tiie human agent too prominent v too mtich dependence upon what we can do, or others can do. All our help must come from God., •* God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound ‘the things that are mighty : and base things of the world and things which are despised , hath God chosen, yea and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are; that no ilesh should glory in his presence.'’

•The important question arises. •• Hoxi* may we secure this divine help so »s to make our work effective V' Paul s a y s , .1 have planted. Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.'’ God gives the increase in the natural world when the conditions of growth are met on our part; such as the good seed, the proper season, soil, cultiva­tion, &c. So our work must be begun, continued and end in God; then it will not be in vain. •

If a church is not prosperous'the blame is generally laid at the door of the pastor. This may be proper in most, or at least in many esses, and yet we must not forget that it is written: *.*And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid, his hands oh a few sick folks and healed them. And he marveled because of their unlielief." -. ;Y :

The text not only conveys the idea that we are mutually interested; hilt may be likewise mutually responsible for failure; A general may lose a battle and suffer defeat through his own carelessness, but it is obvious he cannot fight the battle alone. His Strength is very largely in the effect­iveness of his army. To succeed we must be workers together, and so work that we liiay obtain help from God.

I ;re­call so vividly meeting the writer of that letter, one summer day. 1 w as wandering along the beach and saw her sitting in a pavilion, then standing at the foot of At; lantic avenue. Not soon shall I forget her wonderful searching eves. She seem­ed to look for something lost. I presum­ed not to intrude upon h^r, hut her man­ner was half inviting, her words reassur­ing, and we talked of life an»'. its myster­ies, of heaven and immortality. And np'v she has gone: found those long parted. She had breasted bravely many storms, as other voyagers of life have done, trusting in the anchor of human hope, “ I am the resurrection arid• the; 1 ife.’’ri The letter tp the husb'and may - not hav.e reached. him/ and yet'io some unworldly Avay, wt? trust the letters've do and must write (that may not be carried by postal arrangement) are taken by God. even through the gates of the “ heaven built walls.” We love them so, the lost, the unforgotten.

There is a whole mine of practica 1 pb.il- -osophy in the saying of Miss 3Iulock, w*ho makes a mother in one of her stories, who when asked what she did to make her children so good, replied, “ I did not make them goo(l, I made them happy.” So it seems to us that the objective point is so to present Christ and so endeavor to bring young converts into a close relation with Him, that the logical sequence will be that by the “ expulsive power of a new affec­tion,’* shall no longer desire the things they formerly affected. Concerning the other class-^drinking men—we have most emphatic object lessons in our own city. Men who for years were the veriest slaves to King Alcohol now entirely delivered becausethey have been, so thoroughly converted that they have no desire for the accursed stuff. As w e see these men not only personally saveti, but active workers, for Christ, we could not but wish that such men as Col. Ingersoll would have known them as we did in fprmer years—a curse to themselves and family and an incubus to society, now not only law-abiding citi­zens but earnest workers for God and hu- inanity, and see in their radically changed lives the be*t of all evidence to the authen- tieitv of Christianity that which has been aptly called •• the gospel in shoes.”

• Washington Lstter.Tbe Confederate soldier was the inno

cent cause of quite n breeze in the United States Senate on Tuesday. The “ bloody shirt ’’ was again introduced, and an exten­ded debate followed, all in consequence of Senator Blair's latest bill, just introduced, providing that in appointments civil ser­vice positions, ex-Confederate soldiers ajre to be prefered to other Confederates.

Senator Platt thought that the bill had a pretty unfortunate title-, it does not give the Confederate soldier the first prefer­ence; it does not put him ahead 6 f tlie honorablj* discharged Union soldier as might be understood from the title alone. It simply prefers the wounded and dis* abled Confederate to some other kind of Confederates.

In the discussion Senator Hale said it was apparent that the bill proposed to ap­ply to the Confederate soldier a preference which is now given to the loyal veterans of the Xorth. He could not countenance such legislation. Senator Platt further said that the bill recognized service in the Confederate Army as meritorious. He was unwilling to vote on any proposition avowedly favorable to a Confederate sol­dier as such. A number of Senators were led into the debate, among- them Hoar, Berry, Riddlebarger* Hampton, Daniels and George.

v whether it be so extremely constitutional or not, stated that he had introduced this bill on his own responsibility, believing it to be a simple measure of justice. He was satisfied that in making appointments of men who were disloyal, justice has not been done to the wounded veterans.

Congress has given no attention to the question of prohibition since last week when Senator Colquit, of Georgia, who has taken quite a prominent part in the prohi­bition movement in his Btate, introduced a local option bill in the Senate. It pro­vides for a local option election in the District of Columbia, whenever 10,000 in ­habitants of the District shall petition the Chief of Police to order such an election;;• A member of th e Senate District Com­mittee suggested that it would be more businesslike to obtain an expression of opinion through the police department.by o general canvass of the city. In this way the senti rnent of the people could be near­ly enough determined as for or against prohibition to afford Congress a safe guide for its future legislation without resorting to tho questionable machinery of popular election. It is understood that Senator Spooner* of. Wisconsin, favors a high li­cense system and that he is preparing a bill to that effect which he will introduce soon.

A Xew Hampshire Congressman has just given a surprise to Washington politi­cal circles by developing the title of “Rev- erand.” The Univerallst Church of Our Father, in this city, which is now without a pastor, is taking trial sermons from dif­ferent preachers. On last Sunday the ser­vice was conducted and the sermon deliv­ered morning and evening by Representa­tive McKinney. The Rev. Congressman

. made a very - favorable impression and from the comment passed by the leading church members it would not be surpris­ing if lie were called to the pastorate of this church.

In the nearly part of tliis week there was a great crowd in the United States Supreme Court room to hear the decision in favor of the Bell .Telephone Company. The Court held that there was nothing to show that anyone’ had invented an apparatus prior to that invented by Bell, although vibration by electricity had been transmit­ted by wire,p rio rto 1854.; It held that Bell discovered the principle and perfec­ted i t There is nothing requiring the

' openition of instruments before the patent issues. It is the practicability o! the pro-

; cess that is to be shown. :£;■ /' ■ ■; ■. ';V *: The AV. G. T. U. are holding a week of prayer in this city with daily services at different churches. Miss Francis Willard takes a prominent part in these meetings.

The women are nearly , all here and are nearly ready for their great International Council, which begins on Monday and lasts a week. To-morrOw they will give a

■ public reception at the Riggs Houee to let the people see “ what manner o r women we a r e th o s e were Miss Susan B. Antho­ny’s words.;1

The friends of Gen. Hancock, who have been active in their efforts to raise suffi­cient money to present his widow with a house in this city, have at last met with, success, and the presentation Will take

The time is coming when property own­ers, whether they rent or occupy their own houses, will begin to clean up and re place old carpets and matting by new ones. The question will naturally present itself, where can we buy carpets, crockery, niat- tings, glass ware; window shades, etc;, to best advantage and at lowest prices. By looking over the stock at the Ocean Palace of Henry Steinbach the}- will be able to secure all the above named at prices less than the same goods can be purchased in the city, beside saving a great deal of

• trouble and . anxiety. Don’t fall to look over the stock and get' prices, before pur­chasing the above named. ,

Commissioners, there are va^t amounts of money in the savings banks of the Eastern States, a large portion of which is.invested by these savings banks, in Western farm, mortgages.

Why not have 8 per cent, by investing J-our money in these securities yourself,-and double your rate of interest instead of entrusting it to the banks to invest for you, making from ii to 4 per cent, off your money. You can as well have 8 per cent, as the 4 or o you are now receiving. You can save from *40; to $50 a' yeaiv <>r £150 .to,'*200 in five years on ^1,000; invested.

F o r tho in form u tion of those n o t fa­m ilia r w ith th is in teresting place, a few facta m ay bo briefly s ta te d :

L O C A T IO N .

I t Is located six miles south of Long Branch, im­m ediately on tho shore o f tbe A tlantic Ocean. I t is bounded on th e north and south by bcautiftil fresh w ater lak es ; on the cast by tho ocean, and on the w e s t 'b y Hues nearly paralell w ith th e Railroad.

E X T E N T ,

I t comprises over ihreo hundred acres o f land,tw o-thirds o f w h.ch are groves, and th e rem ainder beach land. The wholo plot 1b now laid out In grand.avenues from eighty to three hundred feet wide.

S IZ E O F L O TS.

The average slzo oflo ts is 80xGQ feet, w hich Ms large enough for a small cottage, such as th o m a­jority prefer to bu ild . Thoso who wish to build larger buy two o r more. lots.

B U IL D IN G S .

On theseavenucs about e ight hundred .cottages a re now built, varying In cost from 8 3 0 0 t o 8 5 ,-0 0 0 . There are about forty additional buildings, consisting o f largo boarding houses, stores, and such o ther edifices as tho. business o f tho place demands. To theso buildings o thers aro being constantly added, so th a t tbo precise num ber given to*day w ill n o t answ er for th o num ber a week or a m onth hence. All o f tho cottages are comfortable—some o f them plain, and o thers pos­sessing a ll th e beauty and perfection o f m odern architecture'.

1 W A T E R ,

W ater o f the purest and best quality , and in in ­exhaustible quantities, Is obtained by m eans o f tube pumps, driven to a depth of 25 o r SO feet through the solid gravel, and six overflowing Ar­tesian wells, from a depth o f over 400 feet.

T E N T S .

In addition to cottages and boarding houses as places o f residence, ten ts arc used by m any people. Every, year, about six hundred of th ese are erect­ed, and although th e season m ay bo stormy—the wind sometimes blowing almost a gale—yet but few have ever been blown down, w hen properly put up. These ten ts are d ry and comfortable, even In w ei w eather. Many persons prefer ten ts to cottages, as they say, “ T en t life is a cbauge— wc live In houses o r cottages a t home.” Tents of good size, and in good condition, erected and ready for occupancy, can always be h ad on rea* sonuble term s by application to th e Secretary's office. .

G O V E R N M E N T .

The governm ent o f the place is strictly religious, being in charge of twenty-six m en—th irteen m in ­isters an d th irteen laym en—all of whom m ust be members o f the Methodist Episcopal Church; and ye t th is place is in no way sectarian—Its popula­tion being composed of all denom inations o f Chris­tians, w ho enjoy and take p a rt In its religious services. '

R E L IG IO U S S E R V IC E S .A camp-meeting for the promotion o f Christian

holiness is held each year, together w tth o ther re­ligious services, which a re held daily from th e be­ginning o f th e season to Its close, covering a per­iod o f about four m onth a. •

R A T H I N O A N D B O A T IN G ,

The bath ing at Ocean Grove is unsurpassed. The boating uj*on tho lakes is eujoyed by thousands pf m en, women and children , from early daw n to long after dark . Over six h undred boats aro now found upon these w ateis. .

R E S T R IC T IO N S .

The gates are closed on tho-Sabbath , and the quietness th a t becomes that/ holy day everyw here prevails. N either liquor n o r tobacco a re sold upon th e ground. ’• Holiness to th e Lord’* Is our motto.

• R E C R E A T I O N . V. The object o f th is place Is to provide a seaside resort for Christian people, free from th e vices and tem ptations usuallv found at fashionable watering places, and a t such rates ns sh a l come w ith in the reach, o f those o f m oderate m eans.

LO TS F O R S A L E .

. About twelve hundred lots have already been sold, There are m aiiy m ore ye t In tho m arket well located aud attractive. The proceeds from th e sale o flots, and from al\ other sources, go to improve th e place. The individual members of tho Association are not financially benefited. T he Charter prohibits it*
