The spirit OF Radicalism is awake; too
long has the fell spirit OF slavery, fgno-

of the American people; but there is a
better day before us.

of the principles which should rule the

The Rev. T. T. Hunt, the temper
ance lecturer, tells the following story:
A small temperance society had
been started In = community very
much under the control OF a rich dis
tiler, commonly called "Bill Meyers"
This man had several sons who had
become drunkards on the facilities az
f6rtied by their education at home.
The whole family was arrayed against
the movement, and threatened Ia
break up any meeting called 90 pro-
mote the object Learning this, Mr..
Hunt went to neighboring district
for temperance volunteers for that par
ticular occasion. He then gave out
word for n meeting, and at the same
time found his friends and enemies
about equal in number. This fact pre-
vented any outbreak, but could not
prevent noise
Mr.. Hunt mounted his platform, and
by few sharp anecdotes and witty
sayings, soon silenced all noise except
the sturdy chilly Meyers" the old
Dutchman crying out, "Mishter Hunt,
money makes the mare CO." Every
shot which seemed ready TO demolish
him; the old fellow presented the one
shield, "Mister Hunt, money makes
the marc CO."
At last Mr.. Hunt stopped and ad-
dressed the imperturbable German:
Look here, Bill Meyers, you say that
money makes the mare 90, do you"
"Yes, dat ish just what say, Mish-
ter Hunt"
"Well, bill Meyers, You own and
work n distillcry, don't you:" inquired
Mr.. Hunt.
"Dat ish mono OF your business,
Mishter Hunt. But den, Ish not
ashamed OF IL. has got a still, and
work IL, too"
"And you say. Money makes the
mare go;' DO you mean that have
come here to get the money of these
people?"
ayes, Mishter Hunt, dat ish just
what mean"
Every well; you work a distillery To
make money, and 1 lecture on temper
ance to make money, and you say,
Money makes the mare co. Bill Mey-
crs, bring out your mare, and I'll bring
out mine, and we'll show them to-
gether."
BY this time the whole assembly
was I'm litter of delight; and even
Meyers followers could not rcpress
their merriment at tho evident cmbar-
Of their oracle. In the mean
time, We must premise that Mr.. Hunt
knew large number Of the drunk
ards present, and among them the SON
of Meyers himself.
"Bill Meyers, who Is that holding
up by that trce?' inquired Mr..
Hunt, pointing to young man 30
drunk that he could not stand alone.
The old man started, rs II stung by
an adder, but was obliged TO reply:
dat ish my son; but what Of dat,

"Good deal Of that, Bill Meyers; for
guess that sou has been riding your
mare aud got Hro,rn, tool"
Here there was perfect roar from
all parts of the assembly, and rs soon
IA order was restored, Mr.. Hunt pro-
cccdcd, and he pointed to another son:
"Bill Meyers, who Is that stagger-
ing about as IL his legs were as weak
as potato vines after frost.
"wcll, suppose dat ish my ~or,

"He has been riding your mare, too,

both hands I'm a most imploring man.

This announcement was received
with roars OF laughter, and from that
moment Mr.. Hunt had all the ground

THE INSTINCT OF IMMoRTALITH.-
The understanding cannot show that
we shall ''live again." All the Phe-
nomena of death are against it, Ma
tural analogy cannot prove 1t. The
same flower that died does notTise next
year, but a different one. The butterfly
that comes out of the chrYsaliS was al
ready contained in it, and this second
birth is not properly change from
visible TO invisible life There was a
time when one was not; why may nota
time come when he shall cease 70 BET
This failure of the understanding is
compensated by a natural instinct, tes-
tifyinp clearly wherever its light has
not~been smothered by the queries OF
logic, or the vices or cares Of the life.
The belief, such as it is, rests on this:
on no miraculous evidence, on no force
of demonstration. We are speaking
now of an immortals life which means
progress, which, points beyond death to
new help for the weak, new discfplines
for the erring, new light on the dark
places of experience, new knowledge
of the riches of God Thoughtful per-
sons say It Is proved by the tmpeEfeo-
ton we see insthis life, and the mani
fest infelicities and inequalities OF hu-
man condition. here; they infer 1t alike
from the large capacity and the small
attainment of the soul; alike from the
incompleteness of what we are and.the
boundlessness of what we hope for.
But what are these inferences when
closely observed, but expressions Of the
natural necessity that is upon US to ex-
pressions of the natural necessity that
Is upon us to explain these strange
phenomena of our life? From hight
and depth, from center and circumfer-
ence, comes the mighty need. IL Is the
cry of our nature, and its answeris inn
