An Able Discourse

Rev. DR.. Pendleton, President of Betha-
nv College, and successor to the late Alex
ander Campbell, preached at the Christian
Church Friday evening. He read the lat
ter part of the llth chapter Of Hebrews,
and the first two verses of the 18th chap
ter. upon which he based his discourse.
The portions of Holy Writ referred to en-
brace a wide range and scope of thought
and investigation of theology and the fun
damental principles of the Christian reli-
cion. The learned divine, in his remarks,
took retrospective view of the creation
far back through the primitive ages. As
syria, Egypt, Israel and the partriarchial
times we're referred to. The classes OF
men and mans comparative inability to
classify men, was dwelt upon at some
length. and the truth forcibly demonstrated
that in the Bible alone and through the
crvstalized truths of the New Testament,
mankind will find alone the true standard
of personal and relative duty. The dis
course was listened to with profound at
tention, and the truths advanced were
forcibly impressed upon the minds of the
congregation.
DR.. n. will preach again at the Christian

Killed.

We learn from a conductor on the train
Of the Nashville and Northwestern
road, that a butcher in the employ
Of Mr.. Eagan, near Johnsonville, was SO
severely hurt by passing train a few days
since that he died in a short time after
ward. While great care should be taken
in the running of trains to prevent the loss
Of life, persons should also be cautious
not to put themselves in danger. Many
lives and limbs are lost on railroads by the
careI essness of the parties themselves.

THE RETIRING M. p,..


S'SOSt We: have Dome the state Some
Service, and They Know It.''
As we put off the old, and put on the
new, the old that had served US connects
with it some Vecolleetions that we cannot
forget. The assertion holds good with
reference to our Metropolitan Police Force.
We know the regret occasioned at the
time by the Police Force Of 1866, being
superseded by the ''M P's" We wrote
of it at the time individualiZing the SER
vices of the old force. As the Metropoli-
tans have in their turn been superseded,
they deserve mention, and we are glad to
say that it is not dishonorable mention
either.
The officers and patrolmen of the Metro
politan Police have, as a general thing,
during their two years service, in so far as
our observation has extended, performed
their duty faithfully and well, and In the
main deported themselves as gentlemen,
both in official and private capacities. They
leave their positions knowing at least that
they were more popular as an official or
ganization, and more esteemed in private
circles at the close of their terms, than they
were at the commencement. This ltseli
speaks much in their favor. The following
is list of the retiring force:
