II WAS the worst work that Satan and sin undertook
world and they that suffered in it were not mart!
a good cause, but convcts in bad one. Who sh
fort them that sit by dishonored graves?'
Sermon of Henry Hard Beeci,el'
Vile, brutal man! and darest thou
In Gods anOinted place to preach,
With impiOus tongue and braZen brow,
The lessons Hell would blush to teach?
The cruel taunt thy lips hath Kissed
Beneath Religions holy screen
Is fase-as false as Iscariot's kiss
Is false-as thou art vile and mean.
Are these the lessons which He taught?
And was His mission here in vain?
Peace and good Will seem words of naught-
Hell rules the earth with hate again
And thou, its chosen instrument,
Hycna like, with hGartless tread,
Hast dared invade with bloodhound scent,
The sacred precincts of the dead.
Not such from those, dear, brave old South,
Who met thee in thine hour of might!
But from the coarse, polluted mouth
OF coward ours who feared to fight.
Dear, loved old South cOntemn the curse
That those who hate shall heap on You;
You've wept behind Wars bloody hearse
That bore away your brave and true!
Their precious blood, though vainly shed,
Long as thy shore old Ocean laves,
Well bow with reverence DER our dead,
And bless the turf that wraps their graves.
From Mexico to Maryland
Those graves are strewn like autumn leaves
What though no mothers tender hand
Upon their tomb chaplet weayes.
Nor wives, nor sisters bend above
The Honored Soldiers unmarked mound
They are objects of eternal love
In consecrateG Southern ground
Ii recks not where their bodies lie
By bloody hillside, plain or river
Their names are bright on Fame's proud sky,
Their deeds Of valor live forever.
The song-birls of the South shall sing
From forests grand and towery stem,
And gentlest waters murmurlng,
Unite to hymn their requiem.
and Spring will deck their hallOwed bed
With types of reSurrectiOns day;
And silent tears the Night hath shed,
The Morning beam will kiss away.
Those heroes rest in solemn fame
On every field where Freedom bled
And shall we let the touch of shame
Fall like blight upon our dead?
NO-Wretch! ScOrn thy hatred now,
And hiss thy shame from pole to pole,
The brutes are better, far, than thou,
And He'll would blush to own thy soul.
''Dishonored graves - take back the lie
That's breathed by more than human hate,
Lest, Ananias-like, you die,
Not less deserving of his fate.
Our Spartan women bow in dust,
Around their cOuntry's broken shrine;
True-as their souls nOble-just,
Pure--as their deeds have been divine.
Their Angel hands-the wounded cheered-
Did all that woman ever dares-
When wealth and homes had disappeared;
They gave us tears, and smiles, and prayers
They proudly gave their jewels up
For all they loved as worthless toys;
Drank to the dregs Wants bitter cup
To feed sick and starving boys.
Their glorious flag on high no more
Is borne by that uncOnguered band;
'Tis fnrled upon the 'silent shore
Its heroes still around it stand.
No more beneath its folds shall meet
The armies of immortal LEE
The rolling of their drums last beat
Is echOing in eternity.

SUGGESTIONS TO TEACHERS.

ARRANGEMENT OF THE LESSON.
The beginning should arrest attention, the
middle inform the mind, and the end or ap-
plication affect the heart
In teaching-.frst get the words and the
meaning of the words and the understanding
of the lesson clearly in the mind; second. draw
instruction from it all.
Never teach child useless truth.
Be sure each scholar gains something in
every lesson. In order to draw out the lesson
but two things are necessary: J. A know
ledge of the facts 2. An accurate percep-
ton whether these be good or evil. The
practical lesson is but an echo of the fact
If evil, avoid; if good, then follow.
We should no longer endure the mode Of
teaching which hangs like leaden weight
upon all the energies of the children, and
drags them bli,dfold and una fected through
all the glorious truths and prospects Of the
gospel.
SOME OF THE QUALIFICATIONS OF GOOD SUNDAY
SCHOOL TEACHERS.
l. A teachable spirit, aptness to teach,
simplicity of style, and praying spirit
2. Good motives.
8. Love TO God, and love to children.
4. Deep conviction Of the Sunday School
work and power.
5. Faith in Christ, faith in His work, and
faith in childhood.
8. Industry, earnestness, gentleness p
denial.
A heart wholly consscrated to Christ il
the great source Of power for Christian work.
