The ARABS P RooF.--Someye,rs ago,

countrymen, had won a high iank
among men Of science, yet deni, d the
God who Is the author of all S, .ience,
was crossing the Great Sahara in com
pany with an Arab guide. lie noticed
with sneer that at certain times his
guide, whatever obstacles might arise,
put them all aside, and kneeling on the
burning sand, called on his God.
Day after day passed, and the Arab
never iailed tin at last, one ev, .ning,
the philosopher, when he arose from
his knees, asked him, with a cont empt-
nous smile; "How do you know there
Is God|' The guide fixed his bu rnine
eye on the scoffer for moment in won.
der' and then said solemnly; "H ow dc
know there is God? How lid |
know that man and a camel I assed
my hut last night in the darkness? Was
II not by the print Of his foot in the
sand? Even so," and he pointed t, the
sun, whose last rays were fading over
the lonely desert, "that footprint not
that Of man."

Ihe President sent message to the Senate
yesterday, which will come before that BODY
to-day, relative to the bill for the security. ol
equal rights in the District of Columbia,
which was pass ed before the holiday adiourn-

gress adjourned before the expiration of the

the measure, and that thereby the bill failed
TO become law He says the adjournment
In December did not cause the failure OF the
bill because there was no. such an adjourn
ment as is contemplated By the Constitution.
In the clause witch hae citedit must follow
that such was the nature of the adjournments
during the past year, on the Both of March
last until the first Wednesday of July. and
and from the 2otli OF July to the 2ist of No.
