song, warbled to and fro among the top
most boughs of the heart, and filing the
whole air with such joy and gladness as
the song Of birds do when the summer
morning comes out of darkness, and the
day Is born on the mountains. We have
all our possessions In the future, which
we call Sometimes. Beautiful flowers
and singing birds are there, only our
hands seldom grasp the one or ears hear
the other. But oh. reader, be of good
cheer, for all these there is golden

THE LORDS PRAYER.
BY HENRY WARD BEECHEs.

All the things that you need for your
self, or for your children, traced back,
are found, in their initial forms. in this
Lords Prayer. I his is a nirthright :
er belonging to every man. A gate it is
through which every living soul may
| pass. Each petition is separate gate.
And beyond is an infinite variety of bless
ed things. These gates open, as it were,
into garden where are growing fruits
and flowers in wonderful profuslon. End
less.diversities of things are there; and
all Of them are appropriate to the utter
ance of this prayer.
Who may pay it? Every one.
May the pirate pray it on his bloody
deck? If he can, he may. May the
murderer pray it while the moose is yet
swinging and waiting for his neck? If
be desires to, he may. May the reeling
debauchee, returning from it's night ex-
cess, and wearied and jaded and depress
ed, pray it? Ifhe has heart to, he
may. May the man who has been over
come again and again and again by the
temptation Of the world, who still is
standing In the presence of his conqueror
and who is ashamed that he is so often
carried away-may he, with full conci,
business of his wickedness and insincerity
and broken promises, and worthless life
4
he may. May man before he is con-
verted call God, Fother? There is only
one condition that stands between you
and your calling God, Father, and that
IS this, that, being sinner, you have
not real desire to be released from your
sins. If you love sin, if you love wick
edness, and you use the Lord Prayer to
parry judgement with, then [ forewarn
you. Let it alone. Touch it not But
does not disqualify one from praying to
God. Is not the sacrifice of the wicked
an abomination to God? Yes. If a man
trieseto garnish his wickedness by sacri-
flee, and he thinks sacrifice is an atone
ment for that wickedness, and that after
sacrifice he may go on with plenary IT,
duIgence again, then it is an abomination
to God. But to interpret it so, that
man may not pray until he is converted
Is to shut out the universe. IF God made
provision for wicked men, who are they
that cannot find succor and help by pray
to him ?

ABORTION.
How the Catholic Church Views the
Terrible Sin.

"St Peter" Roman Catholic Jour
nal has a very plain talk this week on a
repe!ling theme; but as the talk is claim
eA to be the teaching of the church, we
quote: Abortion at any stage of the ex-
iStence of unborn offspring is perfect
act Of murder The plain reason is. the
human being, the man, the homo, is in
existence the same instance it is conceiv-
ed; that is, the instant a man is in eXis
tence, a being created by the Creator in
the image and likeness Of Himself. 9th
erwise how could the conceived grow
from the Instant it is conceived? ltwouid
be impossible Where there Is human
growth tn ere is, necessarily, human life;
and where there is human life there Is,
necessarily, human soul. Growth with
out life is an impossibility, and life and
soul are Identical This is the doctrine
of the Catholic church. inspired in all
its teachings of the Holy Ghost; and the
science oftrue physiology establishes 1t
Physiology has not actually lain its fnge r
on the soul in newly conceived man;
but 1t has lain its finger Oh the fact that
true human growth and human concept
ion are things that occur together; and
this proves for the church that growth
proves life.
The guilt of abortion at any stage is,
therefore, the same as the guilt OF ordy
nary murder. In ordinary murder ever
one that takes real part is hanged
That is to say, the physicians, his atten
dants. his employers, and the wretchec
mother should, every man and woman
of them, be hanged-and hanged igno
miniously by the neck until dead. Tha
the remedy.

insurance companies by the Chicago tire foot up

The agents Of the Andes company. of Cincin-
natl the Allemania of Cleveland, the Enter

been doing business in Chicago only few
months, and that the ruling rates were wholly

Mr. Nj. Parker of Lancaster, civil engineer of

also familiar with the location of the roads and the
proposed locations for station in this city Taking
all the circumstances into consideration he had no
doubt the one nearest Green street the best; it
choosing the least of two evils. Its principal advan-
tage is that il avoids the reversing of the through
north and south trains which is objectionable both
on account of expense aud danger. The expense
might be the interest of from SS00000 TO 100000

Aid for the Destitute in Chicago,
Meeting of Citizens in Mechanics Hall
speeches and Generous Gifts of Money,

The meeting last evening, held in Mechanics
hall, for the purposed of organizing movement
for raising in this city fund for the relief of the
suffering ones made destitute by the Chicago
fire, was not large, owing to the severe rain,
but the ball was set in motion in an enthusias-
tic manner that looks encouraging indeed, and
warrants the belief that the liberal hearts and
purses will not cease in the good work until a
fund of $4,000 or over has been rolled up for our
afflicted neighbors in the western city so nearly
reduced TO ashes within few DAYS. From
about a thousand at the meeting we have to re-
port sum of nearly $4,000 aheady raised, and

the rest The treasurer, Mr.. Chas. b. Whiting,
of the firm of Rice, Whiting & Bullock, has au-
thority to receive the sums as they are brought
in now, and they will be duly credited to the
givers, and forwarded Immediately to those for
whom our sympathies and money are called to
aid. The organization of the meeting was pub
