an unholy pc ace; He spoke out of the startled
heavens as with the voice Of mailed ami
plumed captain, and said, g Keep honor, and
conscience, and the souls life, my children; and
if you are minded to sacrifice property nnd the
body's life, follow to the battle."~
And then, moreover, as just at midnight begins
the morning, and the deep sunk sun takes his
first steps in the long path of flame that leads
him TO the throne Of noon, so to-day, o friends,
let us rejoice that nfter what dark disaster aud
defeat we needed for our discipline, the light Of
a splendid success is breaking on our bannered
hosts, and the great rebellion verify seems to be
beginning its backward way into submission and
loyalty. Let us thank God-for victory-and
pray God for speedy peace,
For that peace through victory, is what God
means, do verify think. Aud then something
further STILL power through that conquered
peace, and that conquering victory. AS long as
we did not know truly whether we were one or
many; as long as we lay, in mems estimation, n
mere collection of iron fragments, altogether
disunited, or tied together only by twine, or
green withes that would not bear tho weight of
even one Of the separate pieces, what purpose
could we serve in the plans of Providence 1t
was necessary that we should be confessedly and
Enthusiastically, OREl
Do you know how in great iron foundries they
do when many separate pieces are to be Joined
Do YOU think they lie them with twine or green
witles or even iron bands Oh, they kindle a
great fire, and cast in the pieces. and when they
are red hot they beat them with mighty ham-
mers till they are 80 Joined that they are one ;
one anchor; one sword, or what not.
SO we were lying,-thirty-four distinct and
different fragments in some mems thought. And
so we were worthless Aud God built this fire,
and he is haumering with mighty strokes to-day;
and at last we shall come out-the anchor of the
worlds hope-a weapon for the welding O!
Jehovah's own right hand.
Hope and prophecy, and praise, my brethren,
out of our glad hearts, even at midnight By
no means that despair, and the sour and aullen
unthanktulness to which some would counsel us

Some Of the reasons wAy Birnie sell so many
Shoes:
In the first place, ne secures large and com
modious establishment at low figure and fits
it up in good order buys his stock in largo
quantities, thereby getting II at the lowest mar
ket prices; he has his Shoes made 80 that the
most fastidous cannot find fault with themi his
expenses being comparatively small, he puts his
shoes down to the lowest living rates, and then
he advertises literally and rs consequence he
sells his shoes off rapidly aud gets the cash with
which to 20 in quest of more bargains to be again
laid before his customers now at this time of the
year, when everybody is buying shoes for the
fall and winter. We would advise them to give
