FERRIS or THE PENDLETON ESCORT
Pending the really earnest and seri-
Gus s wo P5l 81 dah'p period aveS common
and generally very amusing. The ZEN
.dleton escort, who came to New York
with big words and much assumption
| of influence, and who met a fatal dis
appointments, i the butt of innumcrable
Iiokes. According 10 the Cincinnati
Times the members of the escort arrv-
ed home there in avery dilapidated con-
dition. 1t says:
"Thcy started from New York with
clean linen busters, bran new hats, sill
yer badges, and bright little flags with
greenbacks onto them, and who enter
ed the Empire city in solid phalanX,
with music and much banners. They
have oeen dropping in by twoS and
threes for Il week or more. Badges and
= flags had disappeared they had eX-
changed their hats or bought others
one man had his colored-and the linen
busters needed washing badly. They
are all home now, with the exception of
three or four. AS they are known to
have pawned their railroad tickets and
so be out OF money, il is supposed that
they are endeavoring to make their way
home again on foot. Owing to the heat
of the weather, and their eniecbled con-
dition from want of food, they are not
able to make over five or six miles day.
With the cooler weather of autumn they
will probably make better time, and
reach home by the time that winter sets
in. They are reported as wearing linen
busters, worn away as far up as the mid
die of the back, and the rims of their
Pendlcton hats are entirely gone. Their
shoes are worn out and their feet bound
up in rags. Some relief should he sent
to them at once.'
One of of the sufferers has written n
letter to a sympathizer in Cincinnati, in
which he says: 1--WE are moving slow
y ~ but steadily on Cincinnati" where
1--WE expect to arrive before the holidays,
hut cannot tell" He continues:
We would get along faster if it WASH t
for the tunnels. We are afraid to walk
through them-afraid some laundering
train would knock us to thunder-so we
have to climb the mountain. The
brambles have worn our coat tails all
away.
This morning we John and u took a
vote to see how we stood on the pOliti-
teal question. The vote stood as fol.
lows:
In favor OF Blemour md Sair,
In favor of drink,
In favor of square meal,
In favor of reaching Cincinnati as
soon as possible, Z
The letter concludes in the following
melancholy strain:
1--WE are nearly in despair. John
thinks we are destined to perish here
and is driving stake into the grount
the only stake he has been able to raise
with his "Escort" hat on top Of it, by
which he hopes our remains will be
identified by any party sent out il
search of them. Here we shall rest un
til morning, when, if.able, we shall con
tinue our journey. Our shoes are gone
md we would have gone after then
had we not been so far gone. we are
coming, George Ii. Pendleton,' bu
duced slow. 'Kah for nominee! Yours

And step by step gladly take,
A child in Him confding. .s
Just as God leads 1 am content,

That which lie has decreed and sent
That which His will for me commands,
would that He should all fulfill,
That / should do His gracious will
In living or In dying.
Just as God leads, all resign;
I trust me to my Fathers will,
When reasons rays deceptive shine,
His counsel would yet fulfill;
That which His love ordained as rlght'
Before lie brought me to the light,
My all to HIM resignIng.

The dying Jesus looks on me.

A nail in the holy flesh!
I've woven thorns. I've pierced my Lord,
Cruclfied Christ afresh.
Mournfully, longlngly, down from the tree
Dying eyes are following me.
Driven a nail, a cruel nail,
Piercing the Lamb of God:
have joined the shout on Golgotha,
With Pharisees have stood, s
And midst my deeds OF cruelty,
Those pleading eyes were fixed on me.
But did it, drove the dreadful nail,
My hand is crimson red.
Oh, how can'st thou rest, my soul tonight?
n hard and dreamless bed
Is thine, this bitter night to be,
With those dying glances fixed on thee.
Dying tonight on Calvary
His blood is on my head, ..-
And am dying tonight alone,
Dying of fear and dread
Of the terrible hour that awateth me,
When the Judgment seat of Christ l see.
"Father, forgivei my blood is sned
To eanse from every spot.
Forgive them now for what they do,
o God, they know it not -
Dying in agony on the tree,
Jesus, my saviour, prays for me.
And have pierced tn very side
That longs to shelter me:
Not as the Jews, but knowingly
I've stained with blood the tree.

have slain the Savionr who died for me-
l slew the Christ. but, vengeance sweet
He lives anew for me tonight:
Dying in sin, His dying smile
Hath brought me life and light:
Despite His love stained the tree,
Despite my guilt He saveth me.
HIS blood on head and heart and hand,
The holy blood that floweth free,
Cleansing. purging with every touch,
Every stain as snow shall be.
Over my body the tide hath spread,
And am cleansed With the blood shed.

Answer to Intercessory Prayer.

A deacon Of sister congregation

was devoid of all interest in religion.
By the space of SeU'n gears he pr yed
for her conversion, without an an
swer. Greatly disheartered ly the
long delay, he one day said to me, he
would gladly give all he had in the
world if his wife would become a
Christian. In the language Of anoth,
er, my reply was:
"Christians should never be dismayed,
Nor sink in groundess fear
For when they least expect His aid,
The Saviour will APPEAR
DeVoutly and reverently, we agreed
to "prove" God. We prayed and
agon zed togeth r. To our unspeakabIe
joy, the Lord d rected the steps of the
ly to my church-and, within ten days
after my interview with the husband,
she was rejoicing in the assurance Of
acceptance with Christ, and was sing
ing,
Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away"
The Joy of the husband on finding
his intercessions fer the partner of his
years, at leng' h, answered, can be
better imagined. than described I, ke
Zachariah and Elizabeth, they are now
walking blameless'y in the ordinances
of the Lord. God grant that they may
