THE CHRISTIANS DEATH.

Hush tits holy place.
The spirits passing hour
A mortal one hath run his race,
A Christian claims bis dover.
BE still nor let an earthly thought
Mar the deep calmacss Of his lot.
Hath he not done with earth,
It's glory aud It's pridei
It's passing scenes of woe aud mirth.
Its pleasures scerned though tried 7
Hath he not conquered death and sin,
Aud joy'd eternal life u winY
And toll and str 70 are DER
And earthly cares are past,
And he hath gained yon blessed shore,
Hath won the palm at last.
o, who would cling to mortal WOO,
When heaven such glory can bestow?
In yon bright land above.
How rich the deep Fcpose
No cloud, by blasting sorrows wove,
It's blighting shadow throws.
No care obstructs the radiant light,
Where day ne'er shrinks from hasteniui
night.
Then follow we his track,
Through Him who death o'ercRme;
Since death restores not loved ones back,
be ours such bliss 10 claim.
Be ours to gain the glorious prize,
Life, life eternal in the skies.

RAILROAD STATION NpIoAroB.-One Of these
handy and interesting machines was shown to
Us yesterday by General W. 8. Walker, the
agent and part proprietor. It is dook OF
fine quality, the hour hand Of which points
out the hour Of arrival at the different stations
on the line of railroad upon which it is used.
By it the traveller sees the time OF day, the
last station passed, and the time when the
train ia due at the next station. 1t will be put
in use at once on the South Carolina Railroad
and the Northeastern Railroad, and as it will
be constantly before the eyes Of all the persons
in the trains, the advertising space around the
dial, which is for sale, should be very valuable.
The indicator was invented by MIR. E. B. Mar
shall, Of Atlanta. and is owned exclusively by
Southern men.

The Ut. Louis movement to reach the sea-
board By the way Of the Mississippi River aas
already produced one good result. We have
heard Of various efforts at Chicago for reduc-
ang che exorbitant charges on handling ana
forwarding grain and now comes me an q,

the union among the elevators there, and a
great reduction Of rates.
Charleston may find an explanation of the
