PREACHNG CHRrsT.-Paurs minis
try was omincnhy successful, because he
preached Christ, and every minister who
shares in such success, must initiate his
example. An exchange says of DR..
Guthrie, the most popular minister Of
Edinburgh;
He breaches Christ. This is the Sc
cret Of his oratory- the glory of his
ministry. When pleading with broken
uuerances for the neglected and besotted
outcast, he sets forth Jesus as the Saw
ior of the poor, whom call the common
people heard gladly" When expound-
ing the visions Of Ezekiel, he detects in
many a prophetic line the trace of Jesus
coming footstep. When pouring the
thunder of his argument for Free Kirk
and free pulpit, he is on fire with holy
loyalty, for he is denying the claims Of
arrogant Caesar to rule the church, and
he is insisting that there is "another king,
one Jesus" It's to Jesus, the author and
fnisher OF faith, that the eyes of all the
breathless assembly are pointed none
other name is heard before that name of
Him who saves His people from their
sins

bar have warned vessels with troops for
Ft, Sumter not to enter the harbor.
lIe says special orders have been given not
to fre into vessels until shot across their
bows should warn them of prohibition.
Under such orders and circumstances
the Star Of the West was fired in.o, and
the act is perfectly justified by me. The
| Governor in response to Major An
derson's threat, sayshe Major Auderscn)
must be the judge of his own respor 81
bility, and says bis position in the har-
Dor was an act Of federation on the part
of South Carolina. He concludes by
saying that the act proposed by Major
Anderson cannot be reconciled with any
other purpose than that the government
is imposing on South Carolina the con-
diton of conquered province.
Major Anderson responds by acknowl-
edging the Governors reply, and says
he deems it proper TO refer the matter to
his government, ,deferring the course indi-
Gated in his former note until the receipt
Of instructions from Washington, and
asks the safe departure and return of
Lieut. Talbot to and from Washington.
The Governor Immediately granted
every facility to Lieut.. Talbot.

Marion has been purchased, and will be

The Brooklyn will be fired into. Fort
Sumter will open fire on the South Caro-

general, and the people are preparing
for it and for the worst The Brooklyn
cannot come into the harbor without a
great battle. Major Anderson's guns

GzT TGrief bynature is quiet. How still
and hushed is a house of mourning
Joy demands and seeks an audible tongue.
How loud is the house Of fsastiny and
gladness! Glainoss must sing, either au-
dibly or in the heart, and it sings the
sweetest when It's joy scars highest above
the earth. Reptiles, serpeats, worms,
and all things creeping on the earth, new
er sing. No animal walking the earth
below man possesses the gift Of song,
only the birds that fly heavenward.-
The lark carols sweetly on its upward
fight, until its song dies away far above
the clouds; but It's sweet notes are hush
ed the moment it falls back to earth.
Like the lark's is the song of the human
heart. Undue attachment 10 earth loos-
ems the harps-rings Of the heart, and
bushes the gladsome voice Of praise.
