and statesman, was born in MARYLAND in

ers. He was member of the Convention
of Maryland which ratified the Federal

ish treaty. The State of Maryland also

sional labors. In 1906 he was sent as en-
voy extraordinary to London, and in 1903
received the authority of minister plenipo-
tertiary. He returned TO the United States

Where death has no pow'r and affiiction no sway.

But the God whom thou trusted forbade thee tc

filthy Saviour smiled on thee the worldly might

Thou soughtst not excitement, nor sophistry vain

Thou vert Jealous and firm, as befiteth the cause
For God hast thou labor'd, not worldly applause.
Thou hast fearlessly hied where the pestence dwel
At the bed of the dying at midnight hast knelt!
With the symbols of Christ dssipated the gloom,
And smooth'd the rough pathway that leads to the

With the bliss thy rapt soul is partaking of there9
True disciple of Him who the wine press hath trod

Ye that lov'd him, behold! he is worshiping now
Where halo of glory encircleth his brow!
Near the "Holy OF Holes' he's gaind the glad

And the angels of Heaven respond to the song!

And grief for our Pastor each countenance cloud;
Tho the bonds of affection be sundered in twain,

PAYING THE PARsoN.-A minister in a
ncighboring city, says the Salem Gazette,
who is celebrated for the number of connu-
bal knots he ties, sometimes receiving five
or six hundred dollars year for his servi-
ces in that way, was called upon one eve
ming by couple who wished to be united
for this life for better or for worse. The
ceremony was duly performed, and at the
close of it, the man stated that he had but
seventy-fve cents, and inquired if that would
be sufficient remuneration. Being told that
it would answer, the new married couple
were about departing, when the lady think
ing it would be little more romantic and
sentimental to faint on the occasion, indulg-
ed in that little bit Of finale. The cam
phor bottle was brought, and during the
process of resuscitating, it got broke, and
finally the minister had to hire and pay for
a hack to carry the happy pair home. The
minister said, after it was all over, that he
had made about eleven cents clear profit by
the whole operation.

Gentlemen-I was afflicted with sore leg-the
fame of Judkins' Ointment induced me to get jug
of it. | used it according to the directions; but it
kept getting worse. Mr.. Herstons travelling to the
west stopped at my house; looking, at the ointment
he Immediately pronounced it not Of his make On
opening it was sensible of the difference although
it looked like it. | then applied the ointment he
gave me to my leg; it became in state of amend
ment on using the first plaster, and SO continued
until it got quite we'll. This ointment is certainly
valuable; it would be pity that it should be lost
by a COUNTERFEIT article.

MIR LYONS, PROJECT.

The Virginia press are discussing Mr. Lyons
Education project. The Wheeling Times differs
from the Lynrhburg Virginian, in requiring The
system 10 be compulsory, instead Of voluntary
We submit the Times comments:
awe learn from the Richmond Enquirer, that
Mr. LYONS, the delegate 10 the Assembly from
Richmond, will, at the coming session, renew The
project submitted by him 10 The Senate in 1872,
for lbe establishment OF uniform and healthy
system of schools throughout the Stale or rather
a system of free schools. We have merely
glanced over the project, which We consider al
this time of sufficient importance 10 publish, and
We are strongly Of the opinion that IL requires
some radical amendment before il will succeed,
or even be more or better than dead letter.
The first OF these amendments is, the counties
must be compelled 10 adopt the system, not au-
,horized at their option so 10 do. The second is,
the State must be The great guardian OF The sys-
TEN; appointing superintendent and giving him
the general direction OF The whole system, and
The Visitors from each county must be selected
from The best educated and most suitable men in
The county. BY adopting this mode OF carrying
on The plan, The Slate will lind lis intellectual
health much improved in short time"
