of Washington, in a lecture at Cincinnati re-
Gently gave his audience few instances of the
amiabe disposition of young ladies of secession
persuasion. In Alexandria, gallant young
artillery officer was spit upon by two young
ladies, a few days before the battle Of Bull Run.
He Immediately inquired their names and as
certained their residences, and on that same
evening, with number of his comrades sere-
naded them for three hours, singing the most
sentimental songs in praise of the loveneSs
and gentleness oe the sex.
The second Illustration" given by DR.. But
Ter was as follows: ln Baltimore young lady
dropped her handkerchief one day. A Federal
officer was sufficiently overcharged with eti-
quette to pick it up and hand it to her. The
dear creature-type Of the graces that she was
gave him side glance, and in dulcet tones
inquired, "Do you think that would accept
of anything from an Abolition hireling ?"

TO this gentleman he presented the alternative

DEAD LETTERS The number of dead letters
tor the last fiscal year, according to the teport
of the Postmaster General, was 2,550000.
Speaking of these letters the Postmaster Gen
eral says:
The result of successful investigation in
1898 eases confirm the past experience of the
Department. that the failure o, a letter to
reach its destination IS, in the vast majority of
instances the fault alone of the writer or send
er. Out of tue above 1903 valuable dead
letters, 3.095 were directed to the wrong Office,
467 were imperfectly addressed 6i2 were di-
rected to transient persons; 257 to parties who
had changed their residences. S2l were ad
dressed to fictitious persons or firms SO were
uncalled for; 10 without any directions 2136
were not mailed for want of postage stamps
- were misseut and for the failure of Post
masters to deliver 1873, no satisfactory reason
was assigned. The Department therefore can
justly be held responsible for nondeivery of
bat 2l2 of these letters. Ont OF 76.7G9 letters
originating in the loyal States, and addressed
to residents of disloyal States. 10000 could
not be returned, either because the signature
Of the writer was Incomplete, or because the
letter contained no clue to his residence The
experience of the Department shows that a
large proportion Of domestic letters. written by
educated persons. particularly women are de-
hclent in one or both Of these respects.

Shall be clustered, as of old, in Union firm and

Jacobs sons and families had not been
sustained in the years of famine, as
they were in Egypt, how could the COW,
enants Of God with Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob, have been coasummated?
Were we to calculate arithmetically
all the mems Of these Proyidences, and
compute the Contingencies involved in
them severally, we should find scores
of links, on the failure Of any one of.
which, the Children of Israel might
never have reached the Promised Eand.
But we hasten on with the history.
and find that about the; time that fEey
four hundred years which they were to-
serve in 'land not their own were:
fulfilled, We see that Providence IS at
work to bring them out; and, notwith.
standing the mighty efforts of Pharoak
and his hosts to keep them, out they came,
while Pharoah and his mig ghty army, q
chariot and charrioteer, sink to pre-
mature grave, beneath the waves of the
Red Sea. And so we follow on with the
history of forty years journey in the
wilderness, and its various incidents of
Providence, until the turbulent waters
of the Jordan are rendered, as it were,
but shadow, and the blest of Israel
were thus enabled to cross and enter
upon the inheritance youchsafed ts

Let us ponder well upon these INCL
dents, and consider the various judg-

ent; and, above all, the certainty of the
fulfllment of the promises and prophe-
cies of God, and in our next will en-
deavor to bring out something relating
