children that used to dance meriily in the

Alas the children were all banished by the

With hues the bsy>king wore.
While distant din Of commerce.

What skies above me bending
Shall lend to life its hue?
What aims shall urge inc onward
To strive, to dare, to do.
Oh, in the dcep>veiled morrow
Where hope and creeping Fear,

Like sunborn smile aud tear;

The good Bishop Pierce, of the
Methodist Church, has addressed the
following circular to portion of his
flock. We ought TO have Published il
earlier. 1t is worthy of circulation:
| To The Preachers aud People Of the DakSoHeqd
| District, " oTth Georgia Conference:

Methodist Episcopal Church, North, were
seeking TO divide and entice our people

senting the facts in the history of EACH
They invite you 70 come back to the
Mother Church" This is cant-humbug-
sheer nonsense. The Methodist Episcopal
Church. South, did not secede. We sepa-
rated legally, formally, by consent of part
les on plan. by the conditions of which
both sections. North and South. were
bound. True, the North, four years after
wards repudiated the agreement and re-
fused us our rights. But we were sustained
by decision of the Supreme Court of the
United States, and our church vindicated
before the world.
They tell you that the Northern Church
has proposed reunion. and that we have
refused. This is simply false. The state
ment has not she thadow of a foundation
SO far from the truth is it, that when we. in
lS47. offered them fraternal fellowship they
scornfully rejected the proposition. Since
rhe war. in their own church papers. they
nave avowed their purpose TO unite with us
but to divide and destroy-"to disintegrate
and and absorb US. These emissaries who
are providing about among you. with hate
in their hearts and deceit upon their tong
ues, are the paid instruments of their ungod-
lY project. They are wolves in sleeps

They tell you that the Southern church is
A rebel church - that we got up and car
rled on the war. They know that all this is
false. They insult you when, by saying il.
they assume that you are fools enough 70

specimens of radical rant. 1t is the venom
of the old serpent-the father of lies.

tons, candidly informs its patrons that it

We are glad to see that this old and

We learn from Maj. Minis, one of their
agents, that they desire to invest where
they can make it most profitable, thus adj
vancing the interest of their policy holders.
They propose to invest large amount of
their funds in the Southern States. This is
certainly move in the right direction, and
but the more entities this already popular

SHALLOW TnLAGE FOR SWEET PoTA-
ToEs.-The advocates of shallow plow-
ing have one handle to their argu-
ments, and that ia a sweet potatoe. 1t
is stated that when the land is plough
ed deep, the tubers grow downward.
and are long and slender, whereas, if
the mould in which they are grown is
mellow only to slight depth, this
downward tendency is checked, and
the potatoe grows short and thick, q
shape much preferred by market-men
and consumers.-Hearth Il Home.
