Mr.. Meggeit, " the peoples candidate
for Congress- spoke to large audience
in Capt. Saunders Hall. one evening
last week. He is a powerful speaker
and has happy talent for relating an
scdOtes. He defined bis position b, a
story and happy illustration and appli
cation of the same. 1t ran thus:-A
negro preacher once delivered discourse
upon "the two ways"-the straight and
the narrow, aud at las: brought up in
conclusion with few questions rs cl nch
ers. Said the preacher:--" My brelh-
rem, which am de way you choose?--
The straight and narrow way which
leads down 10 destruction? Or the
broad way which leads to hell and dam
nationa Dat am de question" An old
suspicious negro arose and said: "Mr.
Preacher, if dat be de case dis child takes
60 de woods" and suiting his action to
the word. he sloped. Thus with Mr..
Meggett, the present ways of the
two great political parties were plain
the republican way TO destruction, and the
democratic way to that less desirable
place mentioned BY the nsgro preacher;
and With the atfrighted negro ..ihe PEG,
PIES candidate ' took 10 the woods.

Stubhorness is sometimes mistaken for
virtue, and sometimes for maguanimity.
This depends upon the conceit of the in
dividul. We seldom-Perhaps never
see ourselves as others see us, hence it is
quite impossible for any one person to
Judge correctly, either OF himself or of
his neighbor. We see through = thick
glass darkly. and it is the darkness which
we cannot comprehend. How then shall
we decide what may be our duty under
many circumstances Why, thus.-If
va are acting with party or body pc.
iitic, abide the decision of the majority.
The natural instructive common sense
of the masses, though sometimes wrong
is a safer guide than the opinion of a
statesman. philanthropist or critic. It
may be true that,
A man convinced against his will
Is OF the same opin ion still"
Nevertheless is it not better to adopt
the rule of submissioni Unless we do
this. harmony Of action and unity of feel
ing can never be secured in society.
