FACETIous OLD GENrLEMAN,-There is an
odd fellow named Ralph Farnham, down in
New Hampshire, who is one hundred and one
years old strong effort was made to induce
him to be present at the recent Bunker Hill
celebration, in Boston, he having taken a part
in the battle. He declined going, on account
OF the distance, and when his son, a lad of sixty
or seventy years, proposed to accompany him,
replied. IT he went he didn't want to be
bothered with the care Of children 20 He says
he doesn't remember of ever being sick, but
"believes he had a fever or something, eighty
or ninety years of ago!'

LIaHTYNG.-Last wednesday evening three
farm laborers were going home from haylng,
near Utica, with their ptchforks on their
shoulders. Two of them threw aside their
forks, fearing the Lightning which was playing
in the heavens. Folt was in the centre, and
persisted in retaining his fork, and walking
with the points in the air. A flash of light
ming killed him, while his companions were
prostrated for moment. In Richmond, Va,
the same day negro girl, sixteen years of age,
who was cleaning knives in n shed in yard,
was struck dead by bolt, and her knives scat
tered. AT Fountain Prairie, Ohio, July l3,
tbe weather beiag sultry, and a thunder storm
prevailing, MIR. Nathaniel Kenyon took some
bed clothes, spread them on the floor and lay
down. Mrs. Kenyon was also lying on the
settec in the same room, when a flash of light
ming struck the building, Mrs. Kenyon saw
the electric fluid around her husbands head
and thinking that his hair had caught FIRE, she
went to him and found him dead.

No VIZ y,rtp ON conorps 2--Do We always

Do WE YIELD OR CONQUER 2--Do we always
resist and conquer sin, when we are tempted
to it, or do we consent and yield to it Whetl-
er we are in the way ot salvation or not, de-
pends on how we can answer this question. 1T
is not occasional resolutions to amend, it Is not
correct faith, it is not strong feelings in reli-
gious matters, which can he right test OF this I;
it is simply whether we yield to sin, no matter
what sin it is, to any known sin whatever, or
whether we resist and conquer it. Christianity
is not mere profession /; no, nor is it merely,
as some say, that cur sins are forgiven us for
Christ's sake, and that we are accounted
righteous far his sake in the sight of God. This
is part but it is notthe whole. Christian grace
is reality; it is something actually sent into
our hearts it is u real living power given to
us, which we have not naturally, the power to
conquer sin, and to do good works which are
acceptable in Gods sight. The Christian can
do good, he can avoid sin, because Almighty
God, in making him Christian, gave him the
yOwer to do so and il he goes on SHINING,
whether he sins obstinately, without wishing to
be otherwise, or weakly, against his resolutions,
in either ease he has proof to himself which
he cannot mistake, that he has lost, or is in a
fair way soon to lose, that which makes him u
Christian, and which is the only thing that can
save him. l. we are conscious OF being in
such a state, let us take heed what we do. II
we are wavering and yielding to sin, and con-
stantY slipping back into what we know to be
wrong, no matter what the sin is, we are in Il
very dangerous state. Desires, resolutions,
wishes, hopes, feelings, will not do; the only
thing that will do must he positive, downright
actions; strong, unyielding stern resistance to
every sin that besets us determination, by
Gods help, to conquer; and not only sach 9
determination, but the actual conquest. We
can do it, if we will, and the reason why we
| can do il is because we are Christians. To be
Christian, means TO be able to conquer sin
because our blessed Saviour sends his Holy
Spirit into the hearts of all Chrstans and the
Holy Spirit is himself God Almighty, and
therefore can do all things.-Rev. !, G. Pr1ch-
