From the Decatur Ill., Magnet.
Barbarism in Illinois.

A committee was lately appointed by the
Shelby county supervisors to examine and in
quire into the condition Of the poor farm The
committee was accompanied by the editor Of the
Commercial who draws a ghas II and revolt
ing picture Of the howid sights Witnessed in
that Institution 1t has been an abode Of woe,
famine, and torture, the unfortunate inmates
found huddled together like beasts in filthy
shed, freezing and starving During the exam
ination, half idiot boy was found with black
and frozen feet (mortifcation had set in), ow-
ing to the insuficiency of clothing and sbalter i
the snow and sleet best upen bis Red-the 'blan
Aats were too short and thin to cover his feet,
and they were frozen
The following fearful summing up of charges
we transfer to our columns, in the hope that the
pious and benevolent people of central Illinois
will perceive that missionary work is of more
urgent need here in our own midst than among
cannibals or Hottentots. 4

Pardon for Omissions.

DR.. Samuel johnson, in writing TO bis moth
er, says:
'You have been the best mother, and | be-
lieve the best woman in this world. | thank
you for your indulgence to me, and l beg for
giveness of all | have done i'll, and all | have
omitted to do acelL"
So in the prayer he composed at the same
time" Forgive me whatever | have done un-
kindly to my mother, and ,oAaterer I hare
omitted to do kindly" 3.
There is a deep meaning in this. Our of
fences against God and our fellow men are far
greater in the omission of duties than in the
commission of sins. Let any one think it over
faithfully, and see if the Eeight of condemna-
tion does not rest there
And how much point in the expression
omitted to do kindly" We might-often at
least-almost as well not speak the truth at all
as to speak it not sin love;'' so it may often
happen that an act in itself eminently proper
has dreadful omission about it simply because
it is not done kindly What is charity, how
ever bountifully bestowed, if ympathy be
wanting? 1t is often positive insult.

Love is Endurinp

IF the trial comes direct from God, it is
enough. 1t is correction. 1t is his heavenly
Fathers Hand, and with Luther, the disciple

tian brethren, till it be seven-fold seventy times
repeated, love to Jesus demands forgivene IS. =
If it come from worldly men, it is the occasion
for that magnanimity which recompenses evil
for following the Saviour whom sufferings made
perfect. That Saviour never loved the Father
more intensely than when the Fathers face,
was hid, and the bitter cup. proclaimed his ius-
tce and his truth severe. One denied him and
for Peter, while Peter was cursing and his
love followed the rest, even when they were
running away. Jerusalem killed him; but in
foresight of the guilty deed it was over Jeru-
salem that Jesus wept; and when the deed was
done, in publishing pardon and the peace of
God, it was at Jerusalem that the eyaneelists
were directed to begin.

This holy respite to the breast. ~

But where the waves the gentiest glide.

The spire reflected on the tide
Invites thee to the Skies .r.a
To teach the soul its noblest worth.

Go snatch the brief reprieve from earth,
And press-a guest to Heaven. tl
They tell thee, in their dreaming school
OF power from old dominion hurled
When rich and poor, with juster rule.
Shall share the altered world.
Alas since time itself began.
That fable hath but fooled the hour:
Each age that ripens power in man.
but subjects man to power. IN
Yet every day in seven, ut least.

The PRESBYTERIAN UNION PosTPoNED.-
The Old and New School Presbyterians will not
unite this year. The New School Assembly a.
dopted the resolution proposed as basis Of
union, but the Old School Assembly desired
some additional explanations. Hence although
the report recommending the union was adopt
ed there was added by the Old School Assem-
by recommendation that the portion of the
basis which referred to the confession. being
received in its historical or reformed sense,
should be omitted also that which gave free
dom IN stating, explaining, and illustrating the
doctrines of the confession according to the Re-
formed or Calvanistio system. The Old School
proposed to strike out very material clauses
bearing upon the question of freedom of in
tel probation Of the confession. The action of
the Old School Assembly did not meet with the
favor In the New School Assembly, which was
necessary to insure the adoption of the amend
ment. The proposed amendments required one
hundred and sixty one votes In order to be car
ried in that body They only received one
hundred and seventeen yeas A committee
was appointed to which the subject was referr-
ed but 1t reported it was too late to take action
upon the matters under consideration. The
New School Assembly was therefore dissolved
without any definite settlement of the questions
in interest. The committee of the New School
Presbyterian being continued to act with Old
School brethren. there will be further negotia-
ton so that when the Assemblies are again
convened in 1869 there may be some plan OF
union adopted which will be satisfactory to both
parties, or the positions taken by the elder
branch this year may be abandoned.

Up on the hills at Staunton!
Halt, boys; lets take res,
And vieW this lovely valley
in It's shmtner mantle dres't,
View those lordly mountains,
Old Staunton's antique towers,
Yon winding placid river.
This Eden-land of flowers.
How k,sas,,teoQs look the cottages
That speck The emerald plain,
And, dancing in the sunlight,
Those waving fields of grain!
'Twere pity if war the waste.,
With its VanGsi iron hand,
Should eyer despoiI the beauties
OF this paradise-like land.
But. oh it may be soon, boys,
That those fields will be running red
With the blood of friend and foeman,
And strewn with CHASTITY dead;
And yon old towers of Staunton
No more their spires rise high,
AS if in gladstone greeting
To the sunny blue-arched sky.
Yet I hope for thee, bright, sunny land,
There fairer fate in store,
That the future will be rs bright to thee
As the halcyor DAYS Of YOre.' - ''''

Poetry.
BY CHIPS.

..
Resting beneath the waving grass
Out on the silent lea
Many a gallant boy we pass
Waiting the reveille.
Where, murm' ring SOFT the brook rolls on
Over the golden sand,
There's station'd many gallant one,
Who died for his native land.
Under the shadow of the elm,
Deep in the miry clay,
With broken sword and cloven helm,
Grim sentinels are they!
High up the mountain slope they sleep,
Deep in the rocky pass fsweep
Where damp dews fall, where cold winds
Over the meadow grass.
On every yhillock-everyttone,
Their epitaph will glow
Their requiem the wild winds moan
Their pail. the drifted snow
Waiting the reveille-all still.
The grim battalion sleeps,
The while our eagle, SCI canning shr;n
Over their lone bed sweeps.

Worth Remembering.

The Rev. Mr.: McCheyne, in writing to
youthful parishioner, used the followine lan-
guage: You read your Bible regularly. of
courses but do try and understand it, and still
more, to feel it. Read more parts than one AZ
a time. For example, ifyou are reading Cen
esis read Psalm also Tuyn the Bile into
prayer. Thus if you are reading the first
Psalm, spread the Bible on the chair before
you, and kneel and pray, % Lord, give me the
blessedness of the man that walketh not in the
counsel Of the ungodly. Let me not stand in
the way of sinners Let me not sit in the seat
of the scornful. This is the best way of lear.
ing the meaning of the Bible, and ot learning
to pray Search the Scripture
