A Minneapolis telegram says: A re-
marka BILE rise in the Mississippi has oc-
CURED, owing to the long continued
and unusual heavy rains. A boom
above the falls broke yesterday morn
ing, and one and half million feet of
logs ran over the falls, sweeping off the
light flush boards of the temporary
s'horse DAM" which holds the volume
of the Mississippi back from the works.
The dam proper is uninjured. The Min
nesota river, emptying into the Missis-
sippi below here, is reported as up eight
feet. Ten thousand tons Of hay are
swamped out. The rain storm has
continued for four days, and has done
great damage. In st. Criox county
alone it is estimated at S15O,000.

THE MINERS SONG.

We have only space for the following, which
uriously adapted to the use of the congregations
ome plrts of Colorado and Nevada. It's by Ma
,esius. a pupil of Luther, from book entitled IT
hristian Singers OF Germany
o Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Thou God, dost fix the miners post,
Thy Word hath made the wondrous store
OF rock, and earth, and precious ore.
Good metal is gift from Thee,
'Tis ours to use it honestly
For God and country, as tits fit,
Not give it our hearts and worship il.
Who sees God in the precious stone,
Works truly, prays to Him alone,
Believes in Christ with all his heart,
He doth the Christian miners part.
God, who createdst quartz and sand,
Change them to ore in this our land
Thy blessing guide US where to find,
Thy Spirit give the wise clear mind.
Who hath Thee, knows Thy word and love
Better than much fine gold shall prove;
Thy meanest gift is goods and gold,
Christ is the mine of wealth untold.
At AtZarephath a smelter's wife
Maintained of old the prophets life,
Believed his word. had peace and rest,
And Gods dear blessing with her guest.
SO we commend, Lord, to Thy grace
Thy little Church within this place;
1t hath received and keeps Thy Word,
Repay it With true prophets, Lord.
The Richmond palladium. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1855-1875, 1869-09-21

tant and instructive inference from this
is, that if man were as obedient, and his
will as entirely given up to conform to
the Divine will and teachings, as the
fowls of the air. and the beasts of the
ield,' there can be no question that he
would be guided and cared for with at
least equal certainty and security. The
attentive, humble, dependent and faith
full soul will always be shown the ma
ture of any thing proposed or presented
to it, either outwardly or inwardly,
whether in doctrines, by the imagina>
tion, or the cogitations Of the thought.
If it is suitable and proper to nourish
and strengthen the spiritual nature, the
Good Being, always present. in His love
and mercy, will instantly make this
manifest, telling it, in the language of
impression, spartake Of this, it will
nourish thee;' whereas, if it is Ii lurtful,
He will say with equal clearness, Iet it
alone, it will be injurious to thee
GLOW Thy servants blessed, Lord I.
How sure is their defence!
Eternal Wisdom is their Guide,
Their help, Omnipotence p
If God is so Immediately present, dis
recting the growths Of the plants of the
fields, and most wonderfully and boun-
tifully providing for and protecting the
insects, birds and beasts, and every
sentient being of the lower race Of ami
mails, how much more will he be pres
ent with, guide, protect, bless and sus-
tain, in life and iE death, His humble,
devoted, dependent and obedient chill
dren the world over! Of this, for my
self, entertain no fear whatever, if on
ly can maintain the requisite hnmb!e
obedient condition. Then, as with nil
gratory birds, it is my full belief that
"He who rom zone to
Guides through the painless skies their certain fight,
In the long journey must tread alone,
Will guide my steps aright."

THE New PARTY-The Democrrtic
papers, nearly all endorse the organiza-
ton of the Pronibitation party at Chica-
go. The Republican papers, more
solidly, oppose it. And the reason is
plain: OF those who will unite with the
new party. ninety-nine Of every hundred
have belonged to the Republican party.
Whatever weakens the latter, DEM ocr ats
endorse. OF course. They can never
beat the Republicans solid, so they
help all they can to divide It. That is
the nature of tho brute.-GHoward Tri.

Mr. McKELvEY: Dear Sir-Your Life Com
pound is working wonders in this section, and
have every reason to be thankful for what it
has accomplished in my own case and that OF
my wife. Ny complaint, as you may remem>
ber, was Liver Disease in its worst form. had
not taken your medicine more than three weeks
when felt so much encouraged as to order a
box for my wife also. who was suffering from
what the physicians termed disease Of the kid>
neys. This was in November last. We have
now taken two packages each, and am happy
to inform you that we have good reason to con-
cl ude we are both permantly restored to health
and that, by your Life Compound. Encouraged
by its good effects in our cases, several of our
afflicted neighbors sent to you for the medicine
and am informed by three of them, with whom
am intimately acquainted, that they, too, be-
lieve themselves entirely cdred by it.
You may make such use ST this statement as
you may deem proper.
With gratitude,
REV. B. r. GORMLY.

In Dyspepsia it is certain cure.
In Consumption it is excellent.
In Liver Complaint nothing can be

In Kidney disease it is specific.
IN Rhuematism it is an important

In Stomach Affections it is unsurpas-
In Female Complaints it is of great

And in nearly all kinds of chronic disease
facts like . charm, effecting speedy cures in
the most stubborn cases.
The afflicted everywhere should not fail to
give it trial, if they desire to purchase health
with but trihing expense. 1t is not "patent
medicine" nor is it kept for sale by any drug
gist. It is discovery of {. physician during
five years sojourn in South America, and he
nas impaired the secret of its composition to
hundreds Of intelligent physicians, who have
all used it in their practice with the most won>
derful results.
In consideration of its many virtues, have
thought it my duty to engage in the manufac
ture of it on q large scale, and advertise it ex>
tensivey throughout the world. The method
for preparing it for use is somewhat complex
requiriug . numerous collection of chemical
tools paraphernalia not usually possessed by
druggists, and for this reason few drug stores
could furnish it properly prepared. if they had
the formula. Therefore, have purchased the
necessary articles and with the assistance of q
good practical chemist am engaged in its man
ufacture and sale.
The "Life Compound" is purely vegetable its
principal ingredient being obtained from the
root of plant which grows abundantly in some
parts of South America. It is perfectly harm
less in its effects even if taken in triple the
ordinary dose. willis its invigorating influence

The medicine was so successful in my case, that
cannot refrain from adding my testimony in
its favor.
