MORAL n RELIGIOUS.
Eff ECTS OF SCIENCE ON REVELA-
TION.

AS long as science shall continue to influence
development Of intellect, the beauty and ma
iesry of the sacred writings may be at every pc
rusaI, more appreciated. Since the telescope
has changed the sparkling diamonds of'nght in
to rolling spheres, where perhaps intelligent
beings like ourselves send up their anthems of
alteration TO the Father of the Creation, how
much aster, how much grander is that express
sion. ebay unto day uttereth speech; and night
unto night sheweth kno wledge.' We no Ion
ger gaze on the stars as hut mere ornament
on the wide arch that walls in the world. We
see them as globes composes sys TENS on systems
having centres around which they fell in abys
ses where no eye but Gods alone has glanced
r-nnd those centres, in their turn, moving.
around suns that are controlled by other suns,
whose attendant worlds only then sparkling in
the suburbs of creation Take this thought in
connection with the passage. sAs the heavens
are higher than the earth; so are my thoughts
higher than thy thoughts, and how glorious
how over powering to the rejecting mind are
the words of the sacred writer.
Since geology has opened to the gaze the
shin ing CRYSTALS, the carverned torrents, the. d-
almond paved recesses and the submarine volca-
noes OF the wo rd-how much more forcible are
rnany passages of the holy writ And chem
istry, too, standing up in the great labratory OF
nature, flashes light on many sacred line.
Eloquence can do much-butgscience holds
the brightest torch over the 'Wo'lF OF the Al
mighty. When she suspends her lamp over
creation, we see ara immense stage on which
God has been acting, and performing his wond-
ers for ages not to be computed by the tine most
powerful OF angelic intelligence stage whose
aera is nfinitude, whose acts occupy eternity.

ADDRESS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
Fellow Citizens:-At timo like the present,
when our country is literally flooded with nostrums
brought from foreign climes, you may perhaps
think it an act of temeriy in us TO offer as can
didate for your favoor and patrnage Medicine
which is strictly AMERICAN. Common sense,
however, teaches US, that those heib which spring
SPONTANEOUSLY from our native soil, must be better
adapted to oar constitutions than foreign medicines
however useful the latter may have been in the
countries to which they belong The climate OF the
United States stands unrivalled for the production
of medicinal plants, and very little investigation
will suffice to convince the most skeptical that our
oaon country is able 10 supply all our wants, indie
pendent of foreign assistance.
Deeply impressed with the Importance of the n
bove mentioned facts sure to recommend the
INDIAN PURGATIVE to the patronage of our
fellow citizens in every section of the Union, a
natural remedy, applicable to constitutions and
competent to cure every durable disease.
In bringing medicine before the public for the
first time, it is generally thought necessary to inn
press tho people with an idea of the difficulties en-
countered in its discovery, the antiquity of Its
origin thus one tells us that his medicine is I" a

T1E PATRIOT's DEATH.

Piuua Ohio July 18th, 1889. During MS slct
90 he expressed wish to live ill the anniversar
American Independence. His prayer wasshear'
d while the procession was passing his nous
asked that the flag of the nation might
,uyht in. II was carried to him--and, while
nLracod 1t, he expired
The soldier on his couch,
With quick and faltering breath,
Was quiverng meath the icy touch
OF the hero's conqueror, Death.
Hank! To the listening ear,
The whispering prayer is borne,
"God grdht my spirit linge1 here,
Till my couutry's natal morn.
The warrior lives. A scene as bright
Has met his lusrous eye again,
AS shone when for freeman's right
flo battled to the trumpet's strain.
Amid the dying and the slain,
And thunderng steels, and sabres stroke,
And furious columns charging shock,
On Monmouth's crimsonedplain.
lie hears the martial notes
That reused his fiery zeal
The lannon's roar from distance floats,
And the bugle's echoing peal.
A thousand voices sang
The song Of the brave and free;
columbia hail! through the welkin rang,
"Sweet land of liberty!
Nearer the joyous people moved,
And nearer sounds the loud huzza;
He sees Columbia flag above,
Now proudly float, as when afar.
Ho watched Its folds sweep like the star
OF victory He heard the battle cry,
GOD save our country onward fly,
In many field of war.
Tue soldier raised his fanting head,
Reminding fire grew on his breast;
He spalxe, like spirit from the dead,
His blessing and his last request.
Here bring your banner! let my eye
One leol< upon those stars again;
Ny lips once press, yet ere die,
A nations emblem free from STAIN
Twas done; upon his dying bed,
The soldier clasped that standard sheet;
Wreathed with its stripes, his spirit fed
The only foe it could not meet.
His DEATH an enviable hour;
His fife an age OF just renown;
HIS boyhood felt tyrants power;
His sinewy manhood struck IT down.
He lived freeman-patriot died;
And freedoms shrine shall be his grave:
Statemen shall humble their pride,
Beauty give tears, a sigh to the brave.
From the BeJlo,os Fails Gazette.
GOOD BYE.
That little word good by
How thrilling is the sound,
How oft it will call the frequent sigh
How cause the heart to bound;
How often bid the tear to flow,
The smile will change to bitter woe,
And Ger the sky all clear and bright
Will spread tho gloomy shades of night.
How often 100, how oft
1t is an idle word,
1t passes from the lip so soft
But family it is heard;
1t fingers only while It's said
IT'S with the object parted fled
1t holds no claim upon the heart,
And only says, two meet--we part

From the Providence Journal.
TIvERToN, August IL, 1899.


Dear Sr-I wri,o TO inform you that Mes
srs Pearce aud Atwell have been here TO
make arrangements for our Congressional
election. They left with the intention OF
paying us another visit next week. Now ]
want to say TO you through the colnmns OF
the journal, that il the Wings don't wake up,
the Locolocos will beat them. In this quar-
ter Of the State the locos are ns busy as
|" the ID in a gale Of wind" Every thing
depends upon our getting out full vote
We cant, To be sure, do much in this town,
but hope you will make up the lee way in
Providence. Remember that the election
can be carried for the Wings only by exer-
tloDs. Yours, &c. III. i. X.
The letter from Tiverton in our columns,
shows that our Locofoco opponents are busy
in that town ut least, and not only there, but
in every section Of the State. The gain OF
ono or two members Of Congress in Indiana
and Tennessee has inspired them with re-
newed confidence, and our friends may rest
assured that if money and cxertlons can
carry the day, it will certainly be theirs
We exhort the Wings to be up and doing
But short time remains for action, and
every moment should be diligently improved.
The questions at issue are quite too important
to justify the apathy which generally prevails.
Will our friends take the hint?

T0 the AboIitiOuisls.

A friend has furnished us with the fol
lowing Extract Of letter, received by
him from one OF his relatives living in
this State.
81 am concerned to know why il is.
that Thurston and Dorr have not been
requested, as all the Congressional can
didates were two years ago, 10 lay be-
fore the public their sentiments relative
to Slavery, and the Abolition of Slavery
in the District Of Columbia The can
didates in 1897, Messrs. Cranston and
Tillinghast, and Pcarce and Howard,
published their views on that subject, ,and
l know that the abolitionists were salts
fled with the sentiments then avowed and
published by Clanston and Tillinghast
1t seems passing strange to me that any
reaccting abolitionist can think OF voting
for either Thurston or Dorr. Because
i believe there can be no doubt that
Gen.Thurston is opposed to The aboll-
tionists, for he absolutely refused in April,
1898, when. he was the Administration
candidate for Lieut.. Governor, to an
swer the questions touching that subject,
which the Secretary Of our Society ad-
dressed to him, as well al to Governor
Spraguo and Lieut.. Gov. Childs, and
which Cows. ,,Sprague and Childs
promptly and satisfactorily answered.
Besides, it is we'll known, that Prcs't.
Van Buren, is the Northern man with
Southern sentiments, that previous to his
election, he published to the world, that
in case he should be elected President,
he mould reto any law Congress might
pass which should in any manner relate
TO tho abolition Of slavery in the Dis
trict, or which should in any way affect
the subject of slavery as it now exists IN
the Country. How then can il be safe
for conscientious abol.tionist, to vote
for Dorr and Thurston' Those gentle
men do not, and ] presume dare not no,c
publish TO the lreemen of the State THEN
present views on this subject, and frank
lv avOw the course they would pursue in
Congress, if elected, and The sub ject ol
slavery should come up for action
They dare not do this because their
leader, the head Of tae party to which
they now belong, Pres't. Van Burtn, j:
decidedly opposed to the abolition cause
and to aboltionists as such, and SD Is the
great majority Of the administration
party.
