SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPR SENTATIVES-

J. 8ynopla of Proceeding * In the Henata andJ-Uqum mf Iteoretetxtallce-

t.Sksate. . In tho bonato on tho 5th a-

message from tho president was received-vetoing tho bill grouting a pension to-

Mary Ann Doherty. Tho president-shows the bad character of the woman ,

aud that the husband , ou account of-whoso death n pension was desired , is-

alive and is himself drawing n pension-.lie

.

says ho would yield to no man in a-

desire to see those who had defended tho-government liberally treated , but tho-pension list should bo a roll of honor-and not a matter of indiscriminate alms-giving.

¬

. The conference report on the-agricultural appropriation bill was pre-sented

¬

and explained in detail by Mr-.Plumb.

.. The conference report was con-

curred¬

in and a further conference was-

asked , on sorghum. A conference was-ordored on tho postoflico appropriation-bill , and Senators Plumb , Allison and-Beck appointed.-

IIorsE..

. In tho house on tho 5th sev-

eral¬

unimportant bills wcro reported-and referred and tho house then went-

into committee of the whole on the bill-

for the settlement of tho claims of tho-statu of Florida for expenses incurred-in suppressing Indian hostilities. The-morning hour having expired tho bill-went over without action , and Mr. IIol-inati

-called up tho senate land grant for-

feiture¬

bill with amendments niudo by-

tho house committee after substitute-amendments had been offered. Tho-iir- t proposition in order was Mr. Store'samendment to make tho forfeiture com-plete

¬

as to all lands where tho terms of-

the grant had not been complied with-.The

.

aif endment was rejected ; yeas GO ,

nnys 101. The question was then put-on Mr. Payson's minority amendment ,

winch was similar to the senate bill-.The

.amendment was rejected ; yeas 71 ,

nays 12.) Tho committee's substitute-was then adopted , and , tho question re-curring

¬

on the passage of tho bill as-

amended , tho voto resulted 141 yeas ,

unj's 121 no quorum-.Senate.

.

. In the senate on the 2d the-

river and harbor bill Avas considered.-Tho

.

demand for a separate vote on tho-Hennepin canal amendment was with-

drawn¬

by Vest , on the suggestion that-tho question might bo left to tho confer-euco

-

committee , but subsequently a mo-tion

¬

to reconsider was mado b}' Sher-man.

¬

. As to the amendment abolishing-th Missouri river commission , Vest-offered to withdraw it at the request of-

Piddock , but Plumb insisted upon a-

voto being taken and made an argument-against the further continuance of tho-commission. . At the close of a long dis-

cus-

> ion tho amendment abolishing tho-Missouri river commission was disagreedt-o. . Tho bill was then passed. It ap-propriates

¬

S0247f.7S3 , having been in-

creased¬

by tho senato §912000. On mo-tion

¬

of Hoar tho fishery treaty and Mor-gan's

¬

resolution thereupon were post-poned

¬

till Tuesday next.-

IfocsE..

. In the house on tho 1st-

among bills introduced and referred was-

.one. by Anderson , of Iowa , providing-for the control and regulation of rail-

roads¬

acquired by the IJnited States un-

der¬

judicial foreclosure or forfeiture.-This

.

is tho bill introduced by Anderson-in April last. It is a very long measure ,and Anderson demanded its reading in-

full in order to consume time and pre-prevent

-. as long as possible the offering-of the motion for tho passage of tho Un-iou

-

Pacific funding bill under a suspen-sion

¬

of the rules. For au hour and a-

half the reading clerk was uninterrupted-in his monotonous reading of the bill ,

but at 12:30 the proceedings were diver-sifiett

, which was , however , declared out-of order pending the reading , and again-the wearjclerk resumed his task-Finally the reading was concluded , but-Anderson , of Iowa , was on his feet and-Immediately introduced a bill to estab-lish

Display that the State of Oregon is to-

Jii7. -i? on the Fourth-.Portland

.

fUrs.) dispatch : Oregon is-

going to have an illumination on the-

Fourth of July which will no doubt at-

tract¬

attention around the world. Last-year a imrty of five adventurous and-sturdy young men ascended Mount-Hood nearly to the summit , which is12,300 feet high , each carrying twenty-pound -* of red lire , and at 11:30 p. m-

.set.

tire to it. The illumination was-

seen in this city, fifty-two miles distant-as the crow llies , by more than forty-thousand people , who were watching-for it, and persons living in southeast-ern

¬

Oregon , 110 miles from tho "snowy-sentinel , " saw the blaze plainly.-

This.

year a chain of snowcovered-peaks , stretching from northern Cali-fornia

¬

nearly to the British Columbia-line, a distance of 700 miles , will be il-

Iitniiimted-

with red fire. Tho commit-tee

¬

in charge of the coming celebration-iu this city smrtedthe ball rolling b}* a-

liberal appropriation for illuminatingMounts Hood. St. Helen's and Adams ,all three within sixty miles of Portland.-The

.

matter has been placed in tho-bunds of William G. Steel , secretary of-the Oregon Alpine c'ub , who will super-intend

¬

personally the work on Mount-Hood. . lie has already organized a-

party of eight, and will leave here June30. Other Portland parties will attend-to Adams and St Helen's.-

A.

iwrty from Eugene will illuminate-the Three Sisters , near the head of the-Williaraette valley , about 120 miles south-of here , and a party from Ashland will-illuminate Mount "Pitt , a peak forty-miles north of the California. Arrange-ments

¬

have been perfected by the citi-zens

¬

of Sissons , Cal. , to burn red fire on-the summit of Shasta. Ihey will have-to undergo little hardship , as the grand-est

¬

of Pacific coast snow peaks is only-sixteen miles distant. The citizens ofSeattleV . T. , will iiluminato MountIfcunwr, and the Port Townsend peopleare expected to take care of MountBaker-

.Should.

tho night prove cloudless , r.person on any of the hills back of Port-land will be able to see thy fire burning-t n five mountains , namely , Eainer , St-.Helta's

., Adams. Hood and the Three-

Sinters. . Each illuminating partjwill be-Wo to see the work of at least one of

tke others. K&iuier will be able to see-Hood , Hood to see tho Three Sisters ,aad so on down to Shasta. The only-problem i> the weather. Ascents of the-mountains have been made innumerablet-iM s and it "was demonstrated last year-that one man if he be strong and willing-eaa pack a load of twenty pounds.-Those

.who touch off the red fire mus-

trmmu on the summit until daylight , and-this requires what Bobert Collyer , the-Scoth. . blacksmith , calls "clear grit ;" bnt-

n enough have been found to do it-

Opening or Ihe Cincinnati Exposition-.Tho

.gates of tho Cincinnati exposition-

woro thrown open at 9 o'clock on tho-morning of tho 4 th. At 11 o'clock the-formal opening exercises began at Mu-sic

¬

hall. Tho stago was filled with tho-May festival chorus and Cincinnati or-

chestra.¬

. Tho entranco of Governor-Foraker , Governor Thayer of Nebraska ,Governor Gray of Iudiana , Governor-Beaver of Pennsylvania , with their bril-liant

¬

staffs , and Hon. John Sherman-and Hon. Benjamin Butterworth , was a-

signal for hearty applause An elo-

quent¬

pra3or was offered by Bov-.Georgo

.

P. Thaj'or. Governor Foraker-made tho welcoming address. Ho be-gan

¬

by naming the governors and others-who wero present upon tho platform.-"When

.ho named tho Inst on the list,

"that illustrious son of Ohio , Senator-Sherman , " there was a tempest of ap-plauso

-

Avhich bid fair to interrupt thoproceedings.-

Governor.

Foraker made tho point that-this exposition was national in its char-acter

¬

, intended to bo illustrative and-commemorative of the progress of Ohio-and the central states in the past centu-ry.

¬

. It was but a foAV minutes of 12-

o'clock and President Allison announced-that thoy would Avnit for the signal from-Mrs. . Polk to start tho machinery. Sud-denly

¬

a gong in tho hall sounded. A-

ripplo of applause ansAvered tho signal ,and Governor Foraker explained to tho-audience that the gong had been sound-ed

¬

by electricity touched l >3r tho finger-of Mrs. Polk at her home in Nashville.-Then

.tho little ten-year-old daughter of-

President James Allison , stopped to the-side of tho stage , and , pressing an elec-tric

¬

button , gaAro tAvelve signals on the-gong , and put in motion the ponderous-machinery of tho exposition. President-Allison then formally declared tho expo-sition

¬

open. After this brief addresses-Avcro made by tho gentlemen named ,Governors Thayer , Gray and Beaver ,Lieuteimut Governor Bryan , Hon. Ben-jamin

¬

Buttterworth and Hon. John-Sherman , and tho ceremonies were-ended. . Tho great parade started-promtly at 2:30 and moved without seri-ous

¬

delay over a six milo route. It re-quired

¬

two hours to pass a given point-and was Avitnessed throughout by de-lighted

¬

crowds.-

THE

.

PARNELLITES VS. THE D0NNELLITES-

.From

.

Whom tho London "Times" is & irj > -jyoseit to Have Got Its liifurniation-

.London.

, July ( J. The Parueliitea ae-

nounco O'Donnell for tha course he pursued-in his nction against the Times. They-

Buspect that Ryan , the man known as "No.1. " is tho person from whom the Times got-

its information concerning tho league. In-

the lobbies of the h use of commons torlay-the members of the Iri ih party denied that-ParnelLevcr paid liyruo 100 Ihey said-the 100 given by him was in the shape of-

checks signed by Justice McCarthy aud-represented league subscriptions.-

Oa.

the assembling of tho commons to-

day¬

Parnell rose to make an explanation-concerning tho statements mado in connec-tion

¬

with the O'Donnell-Times trial. Ho-

said the upshot of the trial prevented his-

testimony on oath , and therefore ho would-tender a statement to the house. He took-up each of the etters and statements al-

leged¬

against him on the trial , and denied-them seriatem. Tho letters ho mo-

tioned¬

by date separately and characterized-each as forgery. He added : "If they are-credited it makes out that I deliberately-put myself in tho power of a murderer ; that-I Avas an accessory to the Phoenix park-before anu after the fact , and that I entered-Kiluiainham jail desiring to assassinate Mr-.Forester.

.. Tlio absurdity of the Avhole se-

ries¬

of letters , Avith few exceptions , shows-thom to be forgeries. "

Justin McCarthy , it was announced ,would also make a personal explaaation to-

tho bouse later in the day. The costs in-

curred¬

by the Times in defending the suit-brought by O'Donnell amount to 12,000-.It

.

will try to make O'Donnell liable for tho-amount. .

Not Much'to Expect from Congress-

."Washington.

special : Interest in con-gress

¬

is diverted toAvnrd politics. There-is now no hope for any general legisla-tion

¬

ofgreat importance at this session-.The

.

work of the committees is done ,

and the result is upon the calendars of-

the two 'houses. The senate is far-ahead of the house in clearing up its-

work. . Tho senate calendar has but six-

toen-

pages , Avhile that of the house has-considerably above one hundred. They-have introduced already about fourteen-thousand bills in this session. r&There-has been action b3' committees on about-onethird this number, and the tAA-ohouses Avill take action upon one-half or-onethird of those acted upon by tho-committees so that 8 or 10 per cent of-

tho measures proposed will become laws-.More

.

than half of these probably two-thirds

-

ai-e pension bills for individuals-.There

.

is no prospect for any general-pension legislation in this congress.-

Only.

about one-half of the congress-ional

¬

districts throughout tho countryhave made nominations , and probably-onethird or one-fourth of them will not-nominate until about the time congress-adjourns , which is now beligA'ed to be-about the second week in August. This-causes great anxiety among many mem-bers

¬

in the house , and they AA'ill bend-every effort to get aAvay as soon as possi-ble.

¬

. If it were not for the pending tariff-bill there would be absolutely no inter-est

¬

taken in the proceedings of the house-or the senate beyond private bills , and-there are not many members Avho have-measures of local interest now. The dis-cussion

¬

on the tariff bill , Qf course ,keeps up interest to a considerable ex-tent

¬

, inasmuch as almost daily articles-in the bill are reached which have a local-bearing to almost every member. If the-tariff bill should be disposed of as antic-ipated

¬

by Mr. Mills , within two or three-weeks the interest in tho house will go-out like the bottom from a tub.-

A

.

Great Sensaiion in St Louis.-

St..

. Louis , Mo. , July 7. The most-startling social sensation that has occurred-here for years was revealed to the public-

this afternoon , when it was announced that-Heury W. Moore , manager of tho Post Dis-

jhttchj-

and tho wiic of John W. Norton ,

manager of tho Graud opera house aud-Olympic theatre , left tho city together la-

night.t

. It appears the couple have-been unduly intimate for o\"er a-

year. . On Thursday evening Morton met-Moore and Mrs. Norton at the corner ol-

Lucas aud Jefferson avenuesaud, attempted-to shoot Mooie , but avus disarmed by a-

friend. . Mrs.Norton yesterday removed-her money and other valuables from the-safe deposit compauy , amounting to about-S20.00U , and at 10 o'clock last night she-and Mooro left the city in a carriage.-Moore

.has a most estimable Avife, Avho is-

now at Manitou Springs.-

.

dispatch : The weekly-crop Aveather bulletin says : The weather-for tho past week has been favorable for-all growing crops in the wheat , corn-and tobacco regions in the Ohio , upper-Mississippi and Missouri valleys , andTennessee. Heavy rains doubtless inter-fered

¬

with harvesting from Missouri-eastward to Virginia. Beports from the-interior of the middle states indicate-that rains have been very beneficial to-the growing crops.

Drowned in Lake Johanna.-

St..

. Paul (Minn. ) dispatch : One of-

the saddest cases of drowningthat has-boon recorded in this locality for a num-ber

¬

of years occurred at Lake Johanna-this afternoon. This lake is situated-about six miles from St. Paul and is-

often visited by numerous pleasure par-

ties¬

avIio desire to spend a quiet day and-enjoy tho fishing and rowing. Harry-C. . Tucker, clerk of tho Byan hotel , ac-

companied¬

by his Avife , his sister and-

father, AAont out to tho lako after dinner-to spend tho afternoon and evening.-Mr.

.. Tucker's father , and his 6ister , Mrs-

.Deisinger.

, are residents of Amsterdam ,

N. Y. , and came to St. Paul only a short-time ago on a visit to their relatiA'es-here. . After the party had arrived at-

tho hotel it Avas decided to go for a boat-ride, and Mrs. Tucker being rather tim-id

¬

, preferred to remain on the bank and-AAatch the party. Mr. Tucker took the-oars , and accompanied only by his fa-

ther¬

and sister started out OA'er the lake-.Thoy

.

had reached a point about a quar-ter

.

York special : Dr. McGlynn was-

in a jovial humor last night , and with-

many a wink and grimace unfolded to-

the anti-poverty society , in the great-hall of Cooper union , a plan for bring-ing

¬

the landlords down to the plane up-

on¬

which the anti-poverty society de-

sires¬

to meet them. This was a combi-nation

¬

to refuse to pay rent. "Sup-pose

¬

, " said the doctor , "that five , ten ,

fifteen or twenty thousand tenants-should , on a given day , say to the land-lords

¬

, 'Wo will pay you no more ground-rent , bnt only a fair house-hire for your-hire , 'don't you think it Avould be a-

good while before the landlords could-evict them ? At first there must be a no-tice

¬

, then a trial in the district courts-before tenants could be turned out-.The

.district courts are limited in num-

ber.¬

. I think there are only about eight-of them. It might take a good many-months to expedite those processes. In-the meantime those tenants would bo-living in these houses rent free. The-victory would almost be won. " In this-strain the priest of the new crusade-talked nearly three quarters of an hour.-He

.said the scheme was legal and prac-

ticable.¬

. It might be well to try it on-some tenement house block and mildly-boycott the premises.-

Crop Outlook in Kansas-

.The.

Kansas Farmer presents reports-from special correspondents in seventy-counties of the state , sho\A'ing a verygoodcondition of things generally-among the farmers. Wheat is tho best-had since 1881. It is about all harvested-and saved. Heavy yields are reported-in many cases. The average will be-

fully equal to that of the best year-twentytwo bushels to the acre-

.The.

corn acreage is the largest ever-reported in any one year in the history-of Kansas , and the stand and condition-are reported good in every part of the-state. . With favorable weather there-will be 200,000,000 bushels to show for-the work of 1888. In new counties farm-ers

¬

are in a happy mood. Corn , millet-and grasses of nil kinds are growing vig-orously

¬

, and garden vegetables are inluxuriant groAvth. Alfalfa , sorghum ,rice corn nnd kaffir are in the best pos-sible

¬

condition. Bye is good every-where.

¬

. A few localities suffered fromdry weather and chinch bugs in earlyJune , and an occasional field of cornhas been attacked along the edges bybugs , but these exceptions are really-very few. The truth is , that Kansas , as-a whole, is in excellent condition , with-encouraging prospects all along the line.There is plenty of time yet to make upfor all shortages in the earlier part ofthe season.-

subjected to all sorts of annoyances-and mortifications by tho drunken-habits of one of its members. This in-

dividual was a parent , a man , avIio-

Avas old enough to command respect-if he had ever been founi} sober. His-children tried all sorts of plans to re-

form¬

him. His Avritten pledges to be-

temperate would make a thick vol-

ume¬

, and if the recording angel isn'l-tired of marking crosses against this-inebriate father's name for breaches-of verbal promises it is because angels-never get wearj *.

But a happy thought struck one ol-

the children a year or so ago. The-old man had ljeen born in Iceland and-some of his family still resided there.-The

.children held a council and re-

solved¬

to send the old man back to his-

native heaths. They raised enough-money to ond bjm home , and very-easily persuaded him To g

They.

didn't buy him a return ticket.-His

In Missouri , Kansas and Minnesota.-The

.Doctor had an enormous auditory. Ills-

subject was 'Sour Experiences , " and lib-text : "When Jesus therefore had received-the vinegar. " John xlx. 30. The sermon-Aras as follows :

The brigands of Jerusalem had done their-work. . It was almost sundown , and Jesus-was dying. Persons In crucifixion often-lingered on from day to day crylujr , beg-ging

¬

, cursing : hut Christ had been exhaust-ed

¬

by years of maltreatment. Flllowlcss ,poorly fed , flogced as beut over and tied to-

a low post. Ills hare back was Inflamed with-the scourges interstlced with pieces of-

lead and bones and now for whole hours,the Avelght of His body hung on delicate-tendons , aud according to custom , a violent-stroke under the armpits had becu given by-

the executioner. Dizzy , swooning , nauseated ,

feverish a world of agony Is compressed In-

the two Avords : "I thirst !" O skies ot-

Judca , let n dropot rain strike on Ills hum-luir

-tongue. O world , with rolling rivers ,

and Bparklliiir lakes, and ppraylug fountains ,giA'c Jesus something to drink. If there he-

any pity in earth , or heaven , or hell , let It-

no it be demonstrated In behalf of this royal-sufferer. . The wealthy women of Jerusalem-used to have a fund ot money with which-they provided wine for those people-avIio died In cruclllxlon a powerful-ophite to deaden the pain , hut Christ-would not take it. He wanted to die-eober , and so He refused the wine. But af-terwnrd

-they go to a cup of vinegar and soak-

a sponge In It and put It ou a stick of hyssop ,and then press It against the hot Ilps of-Christ. . You say that the wine was an an-aesthetic

¬

, and Intended to relieve or deaden-the pain. But lhe vinegar was an Insult. I-

am disposed to adopt the theory of the old-English commentators , who believed that in-

stead¬

of Its bt'ing-an opiate to soothe , It was-vinegar to insult. Malaga and Burgundy for-graud dukes and duchesses , and costly-wines from royal vals for bloated Imperials ;but stinging acids for a dj lug Christ. He-took the vinegar.-

In.

some lives the saccharine seems to pre-dominate.

¬

. Life is sunshine on a bank of-ilowers. . A thousand hands to clap approval.-In

.December or In January , looking across-

their table , they see all their family present.-Health

.rubicund. Skies llamboyant. Days-

resilient But in a great many cases there-are not so many smrars as acids. The an-no

¬

} auces , aud the vexations , and the disap-pointments

¬

of life overpower the successes.-There

.is agraA'el In almost every shoe. An-

Arabian legeud say that there was a worm-in Solomon's staff , gnawing Its strength-away ; aud there Is a weak spot Iu every-earthly supi ort that a man leans on. KingGeorge of Englaud torgot all the grandeurs-of ins throne because , one day in an inter-view

¬

, Beau Brmnmcll called him by his lirst-name, and addressed him as a servant , cry-ing

¬

: "George , ring the belli" Miss Langdou ,honored all the world over for her poetle-genius , Is so worried over the evil reports set-alio it regaidmg her, that she is found dead ,At 1th an emptybottle of prussic acid iu her-hand. . Goldsmith said that his life was a-

wretched being, and that all that-want and contempt could bring to-it had becu brought , and cries-out : "What , then , is there formidable In a-

jaiW" Corrcgglo's tine painting Is hung up-for a tavern sign. Hogarth cannot sell his-best painting except through a rallle. An-drew

¬

Delsart makes the great fresco In the-Church of the Aunuuciata , at Florence , and-gets for pay a sacc! of corn ; and there are-annoyances and vexations in high places as-

well as iu low places , showing that in a great-man }' lives the sours are greater than , the-sweets.. "When Jesus therefore had receiv-ed

tlie vinegar. "It is absurd to think a man who has always-

been Avell can sympathize Avith those who-are sick or that one who has always been-honored can appreciate the sorrow of those-who are despised ; or tlfat oue who has been-born to a great fortuue can understand the-distress and the straits of those who are desti-tute.

. The fact that Christ Himself took the-vinegar makes Him able to sympathize today-and for ever Avith all those whose cup Is fill-

ed¬

with.sharp acids of this life. lie took vin-egarlIu

Iu the first place , there is the sourness of-betrayal. . The treachery of Judas hurt-Christ's feeling's more than all the friend-ship

¬

of His disciples did Him good. You have-had many friends ; but there was one friend-upon whom you put especial stress. You-feasted him and loaned him money. You be-

friended¬

him in the dark passes of life, when-he especially needed a friend. Afterward ,

he turned upon you , and he took advantage-of your former Intimacies. He wrote against-you. . He talked against you. He micro-scopized

-your faults. He flung contempt at-

you when you ought to have received noth-ing

¬

but gratitude. At first, you could not-sleep at nights. Then you went about with-a sense of having been 6tung. That diffi-culty

¬

avIU never be healed , for-though mutual friends may arbitrate in-

the matter until you shall"shake hands ,the old cordially will never come again. Now-I commend to all such the sympathy of a be-

trayed¬

Christ. Why , they sold Him for less-than our twenty dollars ! They all forsook-Him , and fled. They cut Him to the quick.-He

.drank that cup of betrayal to the dregs.-

He.

took the vinegar.-There is also the sournes3 of pain. There-

are some of 3-011 Avho have not seen a well-day for many years. Ej ICSepfiig out ofdraughts , and bv carefully studying dietetics ,you continue to this time ; but O , the head-aches

¬

, and the sideaches , and the backaches-and the heartaches which have been your-accompaniment all the way through ! Youhave struggled under a heavy mortgage of-physical disabilities ; and Instead of the pla-cidity

¬

that once characterized you , it is now-only Avith great effort that you keep awayfrom irritability and short retort. Difhcultics-of respiration , of digestion, of locomotionmake up the great obstacle Jn your life , and-you tug and sweat along the pathway, and-wonder when the exhaustion will end. Myfriends , the brightest crowns in heaven will-not be given to those who. In stirrups , dashed-to the cavalry charge , while the general ap-plauded

¬

, and the sound of clashing sabres-rang through the land ; but the brightest-crowns In heaven , I believe , will be given to-those Avho trudged on and amid chronic ail-ments

¬

which unnerved their strength , yet all-the time maintaining their faith in Go'd. It-Is comparatively easy to fight in a regiment-of a thousand men , charging up the parapets-to the sound of martial music ; but it is not-so easy to endure when no one but the nurse-and the doctor are the witnesses of the-Christian fortitude. Besides that you never-had any pain3 worse than Christ's. The sharp-ness

¬

that stung through His braic , through-His hands , through His feet , through His-heart , were as great as yours certainly. He-was as sick and as weary. Not a nerve , or a-

muscle , cr ligament escaped. All the pangs-of all the nations of all the ages compressed-into one sour cup. He took the vinegar !

There is also thesournes3 of poverty. Your-income doe3 not meet your outgoings , and-that always glyes an honest man anxiety.There Is no sign ol destitution about you-pleasant appearance , and a cheerful home for-von ; but God only knows what a time you-have had to manage your private finances-.Just

.as the bills run up, the wage3 fceera to-

run down. But you are not the only one'Avho-has not been paid for hard work. The great"-Wilkie sold his celebrated piece , "The Blind-Fiddler , " for fifty guineas , although after-wards

¬

it brought its thousands. The world-hangs in admiratiou over the sketch of-Gainsborough , yet that verssketch hung for-years in the shop windowbecause there was-not any purchaser. Oliver Goldsmith sold his-"Vicar of Wakefield" for a few pounds, In-

order to keep the bailiff out of the door ; and-the vast majorily of men in all occupations-and professions are not paid for their work.-You

.may say nothing , but life to a-ou Is a-

hard push ; and when you sit down with your-wife and talk over the expenses, you both-rise up discouraged. You abridge here, and-you abridge there , and you get things snugfor smooth sailings, and fo ! suddenly there Is-a large doctor's bill to pay , or you have lost-vour pocketbook , or some creditor has failed ,and you are thrown a-beam end. Well ,brother, you are in glorious company. Christ-owned not the house in Avhich he stopped , or-the colt ou which He rode , or the boat in-which he sailed. * ne lived In a borrowed-house ; He was burled in a borrowed-grave.. Exposed to all kinds-ot weather , yet He had only-one suit of clothes. He breakfasted in the-morning, and no one could possibly tell where-He could get anvthlng to eat before night.He would have been pronounced a financial-lallure. . He had to perform a miracle to get

Whatever else avo may escape, that Bjacid sponge will be pressed to our lips. I Is-ometimes have a curiosity to know how I-

will behave when I come to die. Whether I H-will be calm or excited whether I will be-

filled with reminiscence or with anticipation. H-Icannotsar. . But come to tho point, I mint B-and you must. Iu the six thousand years-that have passed , onlv two persons have got-Into the eternal world without death , and I-

do not suppose that God Is going to send a Hc-arriage for us with horses of flame , to draw H-us up the steeps of heaven ; but I suppose BJwe will have to go like the preceding gener-ations.

It is so chilly aud so damp to go down M-

There was a vessel that had been tossed on Ht-he seas for a great many weeks , and been BBBjdisabled , and the supply of water gave out , mBI-and the crew were dying ot thirst.

So I hail you to-day, mmmI-after a long and perilous vorage , thirsting as ]

you are for pardon , and thirsting for comfort , K-and thirsting for eternal life ; and I ask you-what Is the use of your going in that death-struck

- _state , while all around you is the deep _

clear, wide , sparkling flood of God's sympaBTmmIthetlc mercy. O , dip your buckets , and _drink , and live for ever. "Whosoever will , BBBBJlet him come and take of the water of life

BBBBJYet, my utterance Is almost choked at the Ht-

Nana Sahib, after he had lost his last battle H-in India , fell back into the jungles of I her: BBBBJjungles so full of malaria that no BBB-mortal can live there. He carried BBBB-with him also a ruby of great lustre and BBBB-of great value. He died in those jungles ; his BmBB-body was never found , aud the ruby has never BBBB-yet been recovered.
