When the tax bill now before the Legis-
lature, shall have been passed both Houses
and been approved By the Governor. what
would be thought of our Legislature if the
bill contained proyiso to the effect: That
it should not be enforced until it should be
submitted to vote OF the people at the
next election, and if approved by three
fifths of the votes cast at the election, that
then it should become the law Of the State ?
Ii is not believed that there is a member
of either House who would sustain such a
bill, or stake his reputation as legislator
upon such measure. And yet, a bill has
passed through both Houses which pro-
vides upon its face for the imposition of
tax upon the people of Augusta, which is
to Become the law of that county or not ss
the voters therein shall decide.
So long as The Legislature is the sole re-
pository of the law-making power, the
people should, and WILL hold its delegates
responsible for the exercise Of that power
out if the sort of legislation under con
sideration be sanctioned, it destroys this re-
sponsibility and dwarfs the Legislature
down to mere committee, whose func.
ton is to draft bills and submit them to
the people for their approval or rejection,
determination of the constitution viii
satisfy the most ,incrcdulous, that no
county or State tax can be imposed, ex-
cept by the representatives. Of The people.
The Legislature alone can lay tax upon
the people of the whole State, and the
board of Supervisors, OF county, alone
has the power Of laying county leyies.

Spurgeon says We must come back to our
point, which is, not to urge all of you to give
yourselves up to mission work, but to serve
God more and more in connection with your
daily calling. | heard that woman who hai
mission makes poor wife and bad mother
this is very possible and at the same time very
lamentable but the mission | would urge il
not Of this sort. Dirty rooms, slatternly gowns
and children with unwashed faces are swift
witnesses against the sincerity Of those who
keep other vineyards aud neglect their own
have no faith in that woman who talks o
grace and glory abroad and uses no soap ant
water at home. Let the buttons be on the shirts
let the children's socks be mended, let the
roast mutton be done to turn, let the house
be as neat as new pin, and the home as hap
py as home can be. Serve God by doinl
common actionsn heavenly spirit, and then
if your daily calling only leaves you cracks
and creyices of time, I'll these up with holy
service.

We are waiting for the clouds 10 break.
We are watching for the dawn
lor the first faint flush Of the rosy light,
For tho first soft food u the sunbcams bright
FOR The sweet long-tarrylng morn.
There are shadows now on heath and hill.
And the drifting clouds look grey
And the stars still linger, and still the CLEAN
OF the moonlight silyers the me adow stream
As II glidcs along its way
There will soon be slender lines of gold
In the dim, darn eastern skyt
And above the mountain crimson streak
And purple tint on each piuc-crowncd peak
That will bid the night-gloom Ny.
Then the moons fair rays will all grow pale,
And the star-geams fade away
And the cold, calm heavens he blue and bright.
And the clouds be crested and iringod with light
With The tender light Of day.
And the stream will shine among the reeds.
And the lille by the lake
VIII unfold their buds, while the Wood-h sing
llll the copse, and forest, and valley ring,
And The mouutain-cch0os wake,
There is nothing half go fair on earth
As the first bright blush ol dawn,
When the shadows die in a food Of light
And The clouds and darkness are put 10 light
By the sunDcam-hosts Of morn.
Ba, the glory soon grows mint and dim
And the crimson lushcs iade
And We turn away from the east, and sigh
For perfect dawn that will never die,
For day that hath no shade.

The evening Of every mans life is coming
on apace, The day of life will soon be spent.
The sun, though it may be up in mid-heaven,
will pass swiftly down the western sky, and
disappear. What shall light up mans path
when the sun of light has gone DOWN. lie
must travel on to the next world what shall
illuminate his footsteps after the nightfall Of
death, amid the darkness of his journey
What question more important, more practical,
more solemn, for each reader to ask himself
