WHY posT THou WATrp


Poor trembling Lamb Oh, who outside the fold,
Has bid thee stand all weary thou artj
Dangers around thee, and the bitter cold
Creeping and growing to thine inmost hearty
Who bids thee wait till some mysterious feeling,
Thou knOwest not what, perchahoe may never know
Shall find thee when in darkness thou art kneeling,
And gil thee with a rich and wond rous glow
OflOve and faith and change to warmth and light
The chill and darkness Of thy spirits nightl
For miracles like this, who bids thee wait?
Behold, "the Spirit and the Bride say come"
The tender Shepherd opens wide the gate,
And in His love would gently lead thee home.
Why shouldst thou wait7 Long centuries ago.
Thou timid lamb the Shepherd paid for thee;
Thou art His own; woud'st thou His beauty know,
Go trust the love which yet thou ean'st not see.
Thou hast not learned this lesson to receive,
More blessed are they, who see not, yet believe.
Still dost thou wait for feelingl dost thou say,
''Fain would love and trust, but hope is dead;
have no faith, and without faith, who may
Rest in the blessing which is only shed
Upon the faithful must stand and wait.''
Not so. The Shepherd does not ask of thee
Faith in thy faith, but only faith in Him,
And this He meant in saying, "Come to Mer'
In light or darkness seek to do His will,
And leave the work Of faith to Jesus still

OlniO's IRON Ore.

"Profpssor Briggs, in his geological
report of 1868, asserts that the guam
tity of ore is so great that the three
counties of Jackson, Lawrence and
SciOtO are capable of yielding 10000
tons annually for 1900 years"
We find the above in one of our ex-
changes. Some years ago, Professor
Mather assured US that there were
enough coal and ore in Jackson cOun-
ty to run one furnace on each section
of land for two hundred years. And
We believe he was COrrect.-L jackson

An eminent divine, remarkable for
the devoted piety and spOtless purity
of his character, was heard to say
that he never read or heard of crime
in his life, no matter how heinOus,
without feeling an inward conscious
ness that under certain conditions of
education, he might have committed
the same crime himself. The same
feeling must have been experienced,
more or less, by all rejecting enIight-
ened men; and yet-and yet-how
little charity there is in the world.

dowment.
Our railroad system IS unsurpassed.
Railroads are harbingers of peace
and civilization. Already there are
about 900 miles completed in our
State, and the work of construction Is
going forward with greater rapidity
than ever before. A hundred thou
sand people are now enjoying happy
homes in Kansas, that, a year ago,
were homeless adventures.
Millions of acres of rich lands yet
lie basking in the rays Of a genial sun,
only to feed a salubrious air with fra
GRANGE, as it revels in fowery sweets;
inviting the homeless to come and en-
joy what God has so abundantly given,
and turn to their own account this Law
ish waste Of earths fruitful efforts.

DR.. Lyman Beecher once said: ga
great many prOfessed Christians have no
other idea of religion than that it is the
means of getting to heaven when they die.
AS to doing anything for God while they
live, it does not enter into their plans. I
tell you, my brethren, I do not believe
there is one in five hundred of such pro-
fessors that will reach Heaven, for there is a
magnanimity in true religion that is above
all such contemplate meanness."
