uncOnseIous Pray er.

How many times DO people utter what is
a virtual prayer without being aware of il!
Thero Is q tract entitled The Swearcr' 5
Prayer, which shows that profane eaths
and curses involve prayer for the infection
OF Gods wrath on one $ self or on others.-
Bat the same is trne of those more bencyO-
len: situations which are so happily inter-
changed among friends and acquaintances.
"a happy New Year. We call il a wish.
But wish for that which we have no pow
er TO confer of course regard some one who
has the power Who of It's can assure our
dearest friend of happy year2 There is
only One who can. ne then express in
this form of words desire that our friends
may enjoy during the new year the favor of
God, This is virtual prayer, one indirectly
expressed. The same is true of such words
and phrases as Farewell, Good morn
ing" aud the ike. They are invocations of
the Blessing of good journey, or happy
day, etc.,-invocation which car be an
swered and made good to the objects of
them by the mercy of God alone
But if such wishes are expressed without
any thuught ofGod, what is their character?
Are they iuvocatons of chance or fortune?
Or arc they tossed about as general express
sions Of good will, formulas of friendship.
without any more definite Specification il
the minds ot those who use them.
The Quakers have objected to some of
these phrases on account of the insincerity
involved in their frequent use. But it seems
10 us, not that we should cease to use them,
but that We should use them rightly. The
ceilings they express are proper feelings -
We ought to desire the happiness and pros
perlty of others, and to show that we do
We ought TO feel that God only can make
them happy and prosperous, and our wish
Is to that effect should have the spirit of
true prayer. -ChriStiun lTdfchmdn.

what Makes Us Ng.serabIe.

Men are miserable when they try to be
happy; as happiness comes at its own time,
and not when We call for it.
We are miserable when q friend turns
against us.
v hen an enemy triumphs over us.
W hen our pet schemes have failed.
When love dies out and the loved one for
sakas Us.
" hen We are sick.
When the means of subsistence vanish
and many mouths ask for bread in vain.
When the hope of Immortality becomes
ono Of annihilution.
When the Creator takes back the loan of
child :
When there is no more prospect in life.
W hen there is none in Heaven.
When we wish for death in vain.
When we strive for life in vain.
" hen the man@who protected you turns
against you
When Providence aids that man.
hen life has been.a great strife for bread
and must end without it.
When the family you have brought up
proves worthless.
When you meet with fortune and then
lose it.
When you read tale that ends bad.
When you have counterfeit bill and
don't know Of whom you got it.
When you break your watch
When you have the headache.
But most.of all, when you have the heart
ache, and death the only remedy.
The happiest men are only happy at
times-the most miserable only miserable at
times.

seHyhip old Gray. Then!,,

There was farmer who had four-horse
team. The horses, with one exception,
were difficult to drive. He changed drivers
often, but to little purpose His last driver
was sent to draw log frem the clearing to
the saw mill, and on his return the horses
stopped in valley, and man Oh the hill
top, seeing the halt, cried out
What the matter2"
''Matter enoush!' was the ready re-
sponse. There's but one horse in the
team that'll pull"
'What horse is that2"
''Old Gray"
"Whip Old Gray, then; its no use to whir
the Others.
As in the team case, so in most churches.
There is some "Old Gray" who is willing
lido all the hard work, and does a great
- but the trouble is he cant draw the
Sple load and the balky horses too.
He would like to foot the preachers sal
nry, the sections bill, the wood, coal, candle
and oil bills, but his pocket isn't long e.
nough, nor strong enough. Yet there is al
ways some man willing enough, in every SO.

THINK it would we'll nigh dissolve a
Church, ordinarily, if the test were brought
home to allits members, as to whether the
evidence of their being children of Christ
depended in an unfounded faith in him,
which sprang from the fact of their loving
him. You know what faith is in a child
toward the father that it loves. The child
does not believe it to be possible for the pa
rent to do wrong. And in friends that trust
each other there is love that makes it
seem impossible to the one that the other
can do wrong. And if you love Christ and
are welded to him, and have distinct con-
ception of his beauty and loveliness. your
soul will cling to him, and you will have
faith in him that will abide always sure

LIKE the quivering needle, poised on a
point SO fine that no rude compulsion can
move or bind it, oil the more truly it obeys
the mysterious attraction of the pole, till
that by its tremulous pointings great freight
heavy &ps are guided safely so any simple
minded Christian or Church of such, poised
in perfect freedom, may all the more truly
obey the attractions of the Spirit, and ap-
prove themselves safe guides in the world,
holding forth the words of truth, and point
ing the paths of righteousness.
There is. there can be no unity of pure
and perfect love. No organization so elias
tic and frictionless as the consent or agree
ment of true Christians who walk together,
because all are led Of the Spirit BcecIer.

Ten SoNs IN THE UNITED STATES ARNY.-
Mrs. Eliza Aun Upright, wife of ex Sheriff
Upright. of the town Of Winnebago, in this
county, has furnished ten sons for the United
States army. At the opening of the war, she
had thirteen sors and number Of daughters
heirs of her former husband Mr. Allow Mer-
chant, late of this county, deceased. Early in
the war, eight of the Merchant brothers voun-
teered in the military service Of their country,
and subsequently two more Of the brothers,
becoming CID enough, entered the service also.
One of the Young Merchants was killed at
Island No. 10, another at The battle before
Atlanta. and third was brought from the
army, sick, and died here at home. Others
have been wounded. A number of mothers in
Winnebago county have furnished from three
to FIVE sons iu the cause of the Union; but we
have neither known nor heard Of any one here
or elsewhere, except Mrs. Upright, who has
sent tea brave boys to the battle field. Should
the war continue. the younger sons-now old
enough for the military service-wll probably
Join their brothers in the army. Mrs. u. the
mother, is one of the intelligent and patriotic
women OF our country. She is still in vigorous
and active life, and We hope may long live to
enjoy the blessings OF the g!orions Government

so much Such mother deserves handsome

SENATOR MCDoUGALL IN New Role
This aurlferous Senator has made his appear
ance in a new character-that Of q "butler.
He got into difficulty with another Califor-
man. at the bar of Willsrd's Hotel about the
relative merits Of Scotch and American whis-
kies, which eliminated in personal collision.
The affair was brief-terminaiing in a single
round-but spirited. The Senator launched
out with his nose, and caught ibe captain upon
the fist with such heayness that the rebound
extended him at tall length upon the floor. No
ran out of the Senator's nose Instead. Bets on
