PREACHING A PRACTICAL SERMoN.-A
number of years ago, Parson B. preached
in town in the interior of this state. A
sound theologian was Parson B., as pub
lished volume of his sermons evinces; but
ike many clergymen of the past genera
ton, he was too much given to preaching
'doctrinal sermons, to the exclusion of
practical themes; at least, SO thought one
of his parishioners, Mr.. G. Mr.. b. said
he one day to the clergyman, we know all
about the doctrine by this time. Why
don't you preach real practical discourses?'
ooh! very well. If you wish it, will do
so. Next Sunday, l will preach practi-
cal sermon Sunday morning came, and
an unusually large audience, attracted by
the report of the promised novelty, We're
in attendance. The preliminary services
We're performed, and the parson announced
his text; opening his subject he said he
should make a practical application to his
hearers. He then commenced at the head
of the aisle, calling each member of the
congregation by name, and pointing out
his special faults. One was little in
clined to indulge in creature comforts; an
other was terrible man at bargain and
so on. While in mid-volley, the door of
the church opened, and DR.. S. entered
There, went on the parson, there is DR..
S. coming in, in the middle of services,
Just as usual, and disturbing the whole
congregation. He does it just to make
people believe that he can't get time to
come to church in season; but it isn't So
he has not been called to visit patient on
Sundry morning for three MONTHS Thus
went on the worthy clergymy. AT last he
came to Mr.. c., who had requested prac-
teal sermon. And now,' there is Mr.. c.;
hes northumberland does he dor Why
he stays at home on Sunday afternoon to
write business letters. Ii he gets a lot of
goods up from New York on Saturday
night, he goes to the store and marks them
on Sunday, so to have them ready for
sale on Monday morning. That's how he
keeps the Sabbath; and he isn't satisfied
with doctrinal sermons; he wants practi-
cal ones AT the conclusion Of the servi-
ces, the parson walked up to Mr.. c., and
asked him how he liked the practical SER
mon. Mr.. b., was the reply, preach
what you please, after this. I'll never at
tempt to direct you STANDARDIZATION In

AN INTERESTING REVENUE DECISION
ne OF the most interesting questions that
ave yet arisen IN reference to the income
AK has just been decided by Commission
7 Lewis, in correspondence with the as
SSssor OF the fifteenth district of New York.
'lsae gist of the decision is that different

CHICAGO p. M., July %.
EDITOR HAwK-EYE This market has ruled
dull and extremely quiet during the week. Re-
ceipts of grain do not keep pace with shipments,
consequently tho amount in store begins to fall
off.
Same samples of new winter wheat have been
offered from Southern Illinois, quality very
good. Prices have declined about three cents
per bushel i'll all the week, closing very dull to-
day, at re for Rejected Spring, 90c for No 2, and
81 0O@l02 for No. l; scarcely anything doing in
Winter Wheat, sales at 81 90 for No. g old; vii l
sales OF new by sample of choice lots at 81 05.-
These rates can hardly be maintained; as COM
pared with New York prices to-day, they would
pay loss to the shipper offrom 5 toS cents per
bushel.
Corn receipts hold out well, and prices do not
seem to give way, with an active business, at
about 47A@4Sl4 for mixed in store.
Oats are without material change; in fair de-
mand at 4Sb5Oc for Rejected and IS for No. L.
The Flour trade is almost lfeless, but little do
ing beyond the retail City trade and filling few
orders occasionally for low grades to go to Cana
da. Choice white wheat flour in retail way at
IS 50 per bbl.; good Spring extra 81 25s4 50; SUI
perfine 81 90; low grades IS O093 so. The unfa-
vorable reports from New York have very de-
pressing affect. The amount of Flour now held
store in that market, is over 100000 bbls,, a
great deal of which is out of condition.
Hides, green sailed S149S34c; dry flint 161zSl7.

TERRIBLE LOCOMOTIVE BOILER EXPLo-
sIoN-FoUR PERSONS KILLED.--Ouraccoun
ofthe Locomotive Boiler Explosion was in
the main correct. 1t occurred Saturday,
near Monmouth. It. was the Locomotive

J Of the best Engineers upon the road, safe
ind CAREFUL which was exploded, killing
al on board except Mr.. S. Mr.. John Court
wright, Conductor of the gravel trains,
spencer Goodwill and Charles Oliver were
riding on the bumper and were all instant
" killed. Mr.. Scott, fireman and Mr.. Slo-
cum were in their places, and were blown
rom the Locomotive in opposite directions.
Scott was badly burned and scalded, and
lived only half an hour. Mr.. Slocum was
injured but very little. All Of them were
Employees Of the Road, one living at
Princeton, one at Kewanee, and one at
Galesbrrg. We are told by well informed
persons that no blame properly attaches to
the Engineer-that the explosion was one

BURL1NGroN. FRIDAY. PM

BURLINGTON, FRIDAY, P N.
Rains have fallen in our immediate vicinity
and over considerable portions of Iowa and IIli-
nois since our last issue, in sufficient quantities
to revive vegetation to some extent. But the
showers have not been copious enough or gene
raj, and the country is suffering greatly by the
drouth. Although heavy rain fell north of us
yesterday within a few miles, the earth still re-
mains dry in Burlington. The market gardens
are burned up vegetables commanding very
high prices, and butter grown very scarce and
high.
We give below the most reliable quotations
we can get. Every thing is unsettled. The OPEN
ing of the Mississippi River, the fall in the price
OF gold and the waning fortunes of the rebellion
have unsettled things.

Of this village, died at the hospital at Mem

ed in the head at the terrible charge Of the
22d of May at Vicksburg, which had mainly
healed, but brain fever set in, and proved
fatal. He was "a years of age, and leaves
a wife and three children. Mr.. Sherwin
was in great many battles, and was FORE
most and heroic in them all, never ninching
from his duty. He was an intelligent man,
and felt deep interest il the result of the
war, and made many observations while in
the service. His letters TO his father have
always been of much interest, several of
which have been published in the TINES,
as our readers will doubtless remember.
But he has gone to his reward. He was a
brave man, a true patriot, and has given his
life as sacrifice for our country. God
comfort and bless his afflicted family
