SUNDAY READINd.-The sanctity
OF the Sabbath is not disputed by
those who believe Ia the truth Of the
Christian religion.
But there are those who profess
Christiauity-who pray loudly 10 pub
lie, and make their professions open
ly-that have about as much Chris
tianiiy in their hearts as the Devil
possessed when he conducted the Sa-
viour to the top of high mountain,
and. showing him all the kingdoms OF
the earth, very kindly offered to make
him a deed to the fee simple of all
the real estate within the entire
prospect, If the Christ would
PROSTATE himself at the feet of Bel
zebub, and render to that king HON
age and worship. To be sure his Sa-
tanie majesty did not own a foot OF
the large domain he so generously

prescribe in their business, when they
are outside of the Holy Sanctuary.

According to Biblical chronology
Methuselah was the oldest man thai
ever lived. He survived somethiua
like nine hundred aud sixty-nine
years. BY tho same chronology, we
learn that about eighteen hundred
and seventy years have elapsed since
the advent of tho son of Mary In the
manger where he received the wor-

thirty-three years he suffered cruel

Love and the performance of myriad:
Of good deeds for the benefit of man
kind. As the man is still living
who is mean enough to stab hi
spear inthe side of dying Saviour, anC
there was never but one man known
who perpetrated such crime, it nat
urally follows that the fellow is still
alive, living in Evansville, and bC
beats Methuseah in point of age
about thousand years.

But his christian charity is of thai
character that induces him to stop his
newspaper when he happens to read
an article 10 it that he don't like, and
then prompts him to go to church and
