THE VISIT OF GEN. GRANT.-This afternoon
the committee Of the City Council will leave
tor Boston for the purpose of inviting Ger.
Grant to make a stop in Por tland ON his way
to Bangor or on his return therefrom after the
celebration. Il is expected that the President
will reach Boston this afternoon by special
train from Albany, and after a formal Iecep-
ton by the Mayor and City Council will go to
the St James Hotel, where he will pass Sun
day. On Monday he will participate in the
ceremonies of laying the corner stone of the
new Post Office in Boston. On Tuesday morn
ing the President and his suite will leave Bos
ton in special train over the Eastern Rail-
road at o'clock, arriving here about noon,
after making a short stop at Saco and other
points on the line. 1t intended that the
| train will reach Bangor at about 1 2 o'clock.
THEATRE. There was lamentably small
house at the Theatre last night; too small, far
too small, for the object of the entertainment

money and their wardrobes by the Ire, reduc-

hood. AS a class they should not be forgotten

broadly and deeply for the sufferers without
regard 10 caste or standing.
|
THE RAILRoADs.-The Portland and Roch-
ester, the Portland and Ogdensbnrg and the
| Portland, Saco and Portsmouth were the only
roads which passed the storm without serious
damage. On the Portland and Keonebec road
trains came in from Augusta at the regular
time yesterday The Grand Trunk, from Mon
treal, due Thursday afternoon, arrived at about
half-past five, inst in time to connect with the
Boston express train at six. The road had been
badly washed, and large number OF men had
been employed to repair damages.
| On the Mare Central no train came thropgb
yesterday. There is large break between
DanVlie JUNCTION and Lewiston, and others
farther above. The Androscoggip road ia had
ly torn up at Little River in Llsboo, Crowley
Station in Lewiston and at Sabattis. 1t is diff.
fcut to say whether trains over this road will
be able to get through to-day.
Much of the road on the Maine Central ex.
tension in Cumberland and Yarmouth has
been submerged by the recent storm; but it is
believed that the washouts can be easily over
come.
Owing to the storm, the steamer Lewiston
from Machias, due yesterday morning, did no
arrive until o'clock last evening. She will
leave again day at noon.
The steamer New England, from Eastport
due Friday morning, did not arrive until after
| noon.

The Situation

The New York Times, (Radicai,
tells the Montgomery Advertiser and
the so.called prudent class Of Demo
cratic papers to which it belongs, that
they are no better than the wickcdcst
Of the ~"rebcls," and that they are
trying to fool the Republicans Of the
North, but cannot come it, The gal
liant editor Of the Mobile Register says
that the Advertiser is thus "warned in
advance that the dodge won't work,
and the veil it has hung over the fiery
issues between the patriots and the tyr,
ants of the land is rs transparent as
gossancT. Thus our friend will see
tina: while re make nothing in the
World by the soit.sawder plan, because
the Radicals will not submit their tail
feathers to the fresh-salt process, we
yet lose all the glowing and inspiriting
advantages of standing boldly on our
own true and catholic principles, and
thus throwing the fruitful elements Of
courage, clear conscience and conf
dencc into the conflict"

which says that "wheneverihe General

GODS COVENANT WITH DAVID.

As there are so many intelligent and
respectable people in the woyld who do
not believe that The Lord God shall give
unto Jesus the throne of his father Da-
yid."-as the angel Gabriel assured. the
virgin Mary-we will examine a little
more evidence on this point.
In the 18th chapter of I'd Samuel we find
the Covenant that God made with David
through Nathan the prophet. In this Gov
enant God promised him a son. who should
not only be "chastened with the stripes
OF the children Of men, but who should
also reign upon the throne of Israel FOR
EVER before him. David was to be an eye-
uttntSs of His reign; and he had sense
enough to know that this promise was
equivalent to an assurance of his recrea-
ton. or resurrection to life with an imper-
lshable body. This part of the covenant
has not yet been fulfilled. for Peter de-
ciared on the day Of Pentccost. that "DA-
yID Is NOr A~sCESDED INTO THE HEAVENS"
but "hc r both dead and buried, and his
sepulchre is with NJ unto this day - The
promise Of God necessarily carried with
it the assurance Of the resurrection. or re-
creation. Of both Christ and David; for
both were mortal and as one was to see
the other reigning upon the throne of Is
rael for 20 long a period, both must needs
be recreated aud possess bodies that would
never die.
Daniel terms the Kingdom over which
Christ will reign an everlasting kingdom"
but the apostle John tells US in the book of
Revelation that the kingdom will last "a
thousand years. 30 that We must conclude
that the terms everlasting" and "fOr-
ever" in connection Nth the subject of the
mean a thousand Years.
But let us return to the covenant. Da-
yid styled it an EVERLASTING COVENANT"
ard Jehovah declares:
my covenant will I not break. nor alter
the thing that is gone out of my lips.
Once AVE ! srorn By my holiness that I will
not lie unto David. His seed shall endure
and his throne as the sun before me.
