Meanwhile, let the wings keep sharp eye up
on the manoeuvres to which their desperation
is driving those who hold power"
We have for some time been expecting CO.
aition between the Northern Wings and the
Van Buren,es. The Van Buren, party by in
creasing the expenditures Of the government,
and making the most of the disbursements Of
the public money at the North, have contrlbu
ted more to their industry at the expense OF the
South, than the American System yielded. We
are not at all, thel eforc, astonished at the con

GEN. Scorr AND SIR JOHN HARvEY.--The
peace, prosperity and happiness Of the United
States and Great Britain now depends, and for
some time to come will depend, upon the les
pective proceedings of the above two generals.
When they meet. for it is probable that they
will shortly have personal interview, it will
not be for the first time If we mistake not, it
was upon the eve Of the over.to-be-remembered
4th Of July, 1914, that Gen. Scott was advan-
cling across beautiful plain about mile and
half above Chippewa, with choice body Of
American troops, whom he intended to drill be-
fore sun down; he had just reached bridge
which crosses the small stream that there runs
into the Niagara, when he met Gen. Porter's
light troops in confusion, and Gen. Brown who
was riding hard to put the reserve Of the army
in motion; the enemy was drawn up in full and
regular order Of battle, supported by heavy
battery, within point blank shot Of the bridge.
Gen. Scott passed the bridge under dread
lul fire, formed his line, drove back the British
and halted moment to take breath; just then
the smoke from the firing cleared away and
drummer was shot down by the side Of Gen.
Scott two of his men instantly seized the drum,
and began to fight for the possession Of it, and
respective claim to possession.
At this critical juncture, party of British
levelled their guns at the inter
esting trio and in few moments they would
all have lain lifeless upon the plain, had not a
gallant British officer, who saw the whole of
these movements, rode up in front of the rifle
men and beat up their guns with his sword
that officer was Gen. Sir John Harvey, and that
was his first meeting with Gen. Scott. In a
few moments afterwards, the firing increased,
the smoke thickened, and as the British were
soon seen flying in confusion across the plain
to their works behind the Chippewa, of course
Gen. Scott saw no more at that time of Gen
Harvey.
However, they will doubtless meet again in
a day or two, and as they have added the wis
dom and experience of twenty-five years 10
their undoubted bravery and honor, their meet
ing will be an interesting one. They know
each other well, as men of honor, bravery, and
sound sense, and therefore we cannot doubt of
the favorable result oftheir interyiew.-[N Y.

EASTERN Texas. Soda Lake, Port Caddo,
Tuscumba.
Though the parish Of Caddo and Eastern
Texas are divided by the political relations,
they are in all other respects one and the same.
The nature ofthe country, the quality of soil,
the staple products and means of communica-
ton are identical. The rapid settlement there
lore of our neighbors is viewed by our citizens
with great interest and qualification. 1t is not
generally known that Soda Lake is one of the
most extensive and beautiful sheets Of water on
the South. Its fertile and picturesque shores
are now clothed with many a log cabin, and ere
many months the primeval forest must give
way to the cultivated fields Port Caddo and
its vicinity continues to increase and improve
at rate, which in any other country would be
deemed wonderful. Tuscumbia is new town
Just laid off at the head of navigation on the
Cypress Bayou, and must become point of
some importance. The tide of Ango-Saxon

ged, the Rocky Mountains swallowed up and
the stream of life flow uninterruptedly from
the Atlantic to the Pacific. -Caddo Free Press.

Responsibility of Individual Christians.

responsibility or Individual Christians.
Christians, in general, do not sufficiently
feel their responsibility, in their private,
individual capacity. They arc too much
inclined to throw the responsibility, as we'll
as the labor, on their minister, or on the
church, as body, of which they are them
selves component parts.
This thought was suggested by the report
of brother, who recently spent day in
this town, going from house to house and
conversing with individuals in regard to the
interests and welfare of their souls. His
language was: 81 found more feeling, and
the people generally much more ready to
talk on the subject of religion, than had
expected"
believe it would be so generally. II
christians would go from house to house.
and from individual TO individual, believe
they would generally find people more ready
to be conversed with in regard to the grea,
salvation, than was expected. 1t is in &C.
cordance with the apostolic mode of labor
The Savior sent them out two and two.
If you would reach an individuals heart
and conscience, SO as to impart benefit, there
is nothing like going to the individual
making near approach, with tenderness
and yet with sufficient earnestness 10 con
vince of sincerity-and the reception will
be much more cordial than was anticipated
Try it, brethren and sisters, and see if tn,
