FRIDAY, February g. 1872.
Our Mistake about the Senator
ship.

Bristol spoke on Friday last in
very contradictory manner on the
subject of opposition to Mr. i. W.
Earnest. The Netos announced that
Il knew of 10 movement looking to
convention or to any opposition to
that gentleman. But behold the
Courier Immediately faced that state
ment by an array of names importu-
ming the gentleman who edits it, to
reconsider and consent, and vOwing
he would ne'er consent, the editor
consented and called for a convention
to meet at Johnson City on the 10th
inst. The quiet manper in which the
movement was conducted need not
imply more than thatit was matter
which the Ne,oS was not watchful
enough to catch upon the tip of its
editorial ear, but for our plain and
emphatic announcement 10 the con
trary. 1t may have to others the ap-
pearance that it was not intended
that we should know of it because of
some apprehended hostility on our
part. Really we would like to see
Mr.. Slack 20 to the Senate. Bristol
should by no means be cut off and
and we viii not by any means avert
from our town any such advantage.
The Questions of new counties and
removal of court>houses will doubt
less be brought into the canvass as
usual and we assure the parties we
shall be glad to see Bristol win any
advantage which is to be had in the
contest.

A Journalistic Mistake.

Mr.. A. B. Venable Of the Farm
willie Commonwealth has just gone
home from trip through Southwest
Va. When he had reached Salem on
his return he was guilty q of the in
accuracy of stating that the onlyman
he had seen in Southwest Va, who
sustained the sctiou Of the Legisla.
ture of Va, on the Funding Bill was
from Prince Edward. Now as Mr..
Vensble was in our Office and actual
Iy Joined issue with US in converse
tion on the aforesaid F. B., he sus-
tanning that measure and We con-
demning it, of course we are the SOL
itary exception he speaks of. Then
we beg leave to assure Mr.. Venable
that he is in error at TO our being
from Prince Edward. And he will
find in the good old County of Wash
ington vast multitude which Prince
Edward editor would find it difficult
TO number, who are the same way OF
thinking on the F. B., with the editor
Of this Journal.
Surely the Editor Of the Common
wealth must have experienced the
usual failure Of getting the people OF
S. w. Va, to insure against fire in
his Company, and he has concluded
that they are equally wrong on the
L. B. Barring the Prince Edward
feature the compliment he pays us is
more than we deserve and decidedly
more than he can afford to confer.

a PRAYER MEETING REcIPE.-

A PRAYER MEETING RECIPE A
correspondent alludes to the wretched,
monotonous dreariness of many pray
er meetings, the long-winded ezercis-
es, the prayers that cover the whole
dictionary of subjects, the exhorta-
tions that are stereotyped sermons,
and thus suggests. by way of prescrip-
ton:
When one prays in public, let it be
a thoughtful, genuine prayer, and a
short one; let the petition be varied ;
omit telling God about the attributes
which he possesses.
Keep your long prayers for your
closet.
Re cautious about the number OF
times in which you proclaim publicly
how vile YOU are. Keep that for your
closet. And when you speak in meet
iny have some fresh thoughts on Scrip
turc. or some old thoughts redressed.
or some new instances of Gods love
and converting power, or some person
81 experience, teFsely told, that may
profit hearers, or some joyous thing to
awaken aad make happy those who
attend the meeting.

sUGG GEsTIoK BY READING THE FIRST cHAPTEF
OF GENESIS.
God, the great Architect of all,
Gave birth to time;
Nature, obedient to his call,
Stood in her prime,
Earth was dark and vacant name,
A shapeless gloom?
Breath from the Holy One there came,
And all was bloom.
The Maker spake--' Let there be light
The day was seeni
The sOmbre gloom lie called night
Day, morn and cen.
He epake again--the vaulted sky
Deck'd the expansO!
High in their clouds the waters fly;
Beneath they dance
The earth he bade to yield her fill
OF verdant green;
The herbage and the wooded hill
Adorn'd the scene.
The sun, the moon, the starry spheres
A sparkling train
He gave for times, and days, and years,
Signs to remain.
TIE ocean bed He made to move
With " living thing;''
The feathered songsters of the grove
Rose on the wing.
Earth, through her wise extent, was rife
With moving form;
Cattle and beast of every life,
And:crawling worm.
Man, the great mssterpriece of all,
In form erect
Stood breathing, st his Makers call,
In glory deck'd.
To him, as the supernal one,
OF noble mien,
There came dominion, and the throne
Of this terTene.
Fair Eden's bounty to enjoy,
With bsSuteous Eve,
His happiness--till SINS alloy
Came there to grieve,
Thus the creation, meath the scan
or the All-Wise,
Rose, mature and wondrous plan
A paradise T.R.J.
