CONDUCTED BY
REV, ROBERT LATHAM.
JESUS CHRIST IS TRULY GOD.

This great truth is abundantly taught in
many passages of Scripture. will mention
only few. Christ says (Matt. II: 27,) Call
things are delivered to me of my Father"
And again, (John g. 35) "The Father loveth
the Son and hath given all things into his
hands," Matt. %: II, Gail power is given
unto me in heaven and earth" In Eph. l {:
%. it is written that "the Father Of glory hath
set Him-Christ Jesus-at his right hand in
the heavenly places, far above all principally
and power and might, and dominion, and
every name that is named, not only in this
world, but in that which is to come; and hath
put all things under his feet, and gave him
to be the Head over all things to the Church"
And in Phil. 2: 8, "Wherefore, God also hath
highly exalted him, and given him a name
which is above every name, that at the name
of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in
heaven, and things in earth, and things under
the earth, and that every tongue should con-
fess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory Of
God the Father"
quote these passages of Scripture to show
that, according to the Scriptures, Christ is at
the head of the universe, controlling and gov
erning all things by his own power. AS this
is certainly true, Jesus Christ must be truly
God. To sway sceptre over an universal
empire must require an infinite mind. He
who superintends the vast and complex ma
chinery of nature the worlds of light, the
starry and planetary systems, myriads upon
myriads of worlds who upholds them in be-
ing preserves them from decay, a collision
and disorder; guides each one in its destined
orbit, and causes them all to revolve around
common centre must be truly God. He
who preserves in life the countless myriads of
irrational beings which animate the universe i;
who protects them from evil and dangers,
and supplies all their wants from day to day,
must be divine. He, who in the midst of
such multiplicity and almost infinite variety
ofobjccts, carries forward one vast and unvary-
ing plan, and causes all things, even the most
minute, to promote one grand and glorious
object and who does all this, year after year
and century after century, without WEAKNESS,
without perplexity or confusion, must possess
infinite perfections, must be the true and liv-
ing God. And these are the facts of Scrip
ture concerning Jesus Christ.
According to the Scriptures, He presides in
infinite majesty over all worlds and all created
beings, upholding, controlling and guiding
all things, even the least, in its appropriate
sphere and to its destined end. Jesus Christ,
then, is truly Coda. II. IN Christian Ob-

THE WAY TO KEEP A PAsToR.-Pray for
him; love him; attend his ministry-the
Su 1day school; pay him his salary promptly
defend him when assailed by the enemies of
the church and the truth; visit him when in
afliction, and esteem him highly in love for
his works sake. If you want to get rid of
PASTOR do not attend church complain of
everything done at church meeting; be sure
to complain when the expenses of the church
are to be met refuse to pay him; treat him
roughly, coolly magnify his faults depreci-
ate his virtues form party to oppose him,
and if he be an independent man he will soon
leave the place. This plan generally works
well.-Bapttst Record

Columbia, S. c., August, 1872.

a@ If every man had such treasure of a
wife as q Boston paper tells about, there
would not be so many difficult figures to mas
ter in the problem Of living on q moderate
income. This woman's husband was comfort
ably we'll off, and gave her a moderate allow
ance of spending money. Quite number of
years after their marriage she said one day,
"Husband, why don't you buy house? 1t
is so much nicer than to rent" "Ah," said
the husband, II can't afford it." "But," said
the wife, "wouldnt you take one if any body
would give you one" Certainly" says he,
thinking that it would never come to pass:
The wife then presented him with sheet of
paper which proved to be nothing less than
a deed of nice house in the city, costing
nearly $1,000, which amount she had saved
out of the money her husband had given her
to spend. s". ..

HOPE IN DEATH.-Mr. Owen visited AL
exander Campbell, at Bethany, to make ar
rangements for their discussion on the evil
dences of Christianity. In one of their ex-
cursions about the farm, they came to Mr..
CampbelPs family burying ground, when Mr..
Owen stopped, and addressing himself to Mr..
Campbell, said:
"There is one advantage I have over the
Christian; I am not afraid to die. Most
Christians have fear in death; but if some
few items of my business were settled, 1 should
be perfectly willing to die at any moment"
"Well," answered Mr.. Campbell, "you say
you have no fear in death have you any
hope in death?"
After solemn pause, "No," said Mr.. Owen.
"Then," rejoined Mr.. Campbell, pointing
to an OK standing near, you are on a level
with that brute. lie has fed until he is sat-
is6sd, and stands in the shade, whisking off
the flies, and has neither hope nor fear in
DEATH"

Jim Flsk's First Com position.
From McAlpnes Life and Times of James Fisk,

From McAlpmes Life and Times of James Fisk, Jr
One of his copy-books, used when he was
about twelve years of age, is still preserved
by his step-mother at her home in Brattleboro,
and to say that it is a literary curiosity is to
do meager justice to one of the most original
of all the written results of schoolboy labor
ever examined by the critic. Hardly page
but shows the antipathy of the boy to every
thing like set forms, and hardly line but
bears evidence of his natural contempt for
uniformity. The little book contains three or
four compositions, one of which, entitled,
"a Piece about the Dog" is as unique as
anything ever penned by Artemus Ward The
young writer says in his " Piece " (Which had
originally been written "Peace'D:
"a Dog is an animal with fore legs be-
cause he is a quadrooped. like large dogs
because they can run further and fight better
than little dogs and they can also cetch rabits
A big dog amt worth much without he's got
good breed into him. Then had drather
hev little one. They can also drag sleds
some has been learned to carry sticks and
baskets and seterer. The bulldog is the best
fighting dog because most likely lie was made
for that purpus. A terrier goes mostly for
rats, but they can also fight. l think the new
foundland is the noblest dog he saves children
from drowning, and they are sagasious. This
is all for the present" r p

The President and Mrs. Grant.
French WOman's Opinion of the
White House and it's Residents.

[Countess de Paula in the London Cosmopolitan
The White House is shabby residence.
The President, however, is so much loved
that one soon forgets the discomfort Like
all great men, he is simplicity itself. I had
heard great deal of the gallant soldier but
never felt more impressed, and, as French
woman, wished we had had such man drl-
ring the war-at all events at Metz.
The President talks little-if possible re-
ceives every one who has business with him.
Many of his subjects only desire the honor
OF shaking hands. found this great, simple
man affable, just in his remarks, courteous
In his demeanor; and the mode in which he
shakes hands tells you at once he is honest.
saw Theirs likeness in his cabinet, and
compared Grant-the great man, the yictori-
ous-to that small, eg0tistical individual, so
difficult OF approach. The President simply
told me Mr. Washburne had sentthe likeness,
adding that he never was abroad. While
was there letters arrived, the President put
ting them into his pocket with the gallantry
of Talleyrand and the manner of soldier,
which he is every inch. None of his por-
traits do him justice. His head is larger than
any of the portraits represent. His beard is
fair, and there Is a peculiar seftness in the
eye. AS am gifted with double sight and
can enter on the domains of " crainland,'
was sure of welcome. The fact is, ladies
here are the first in all--first received. 1t is
only pity that American bellies do not use
their mighty power for something else than
coquetry. AS proof of the welcome and
interest President Grant felt in your sister
editor, was requested to give him another
call, and in the few sentences with which
now and then he favored me,SI saw robust
common sense. / was pleased-in truth,
delighted-and l admired the chief of the
Great Republic. l left the Executive man
sion convinced that the United States had an
honest man at its head soldier with an
iron will and God knows how soon his skill

home or abroad. I ......... .r. ..... ...
The receptions of Mrs. Grant are closed
for the Lent; but she receives calls-rests
awhile from the hard duties of the reception
season, and now enjoys the family circle and
the company of few friends. Her manner
is perfectly in accordance with her position
OF PresadeRte. Great in her simplicity she
represents the true woman-the fond COM
panior; the star of the Union, the inspirer of
her husband and children and Ionly won

gance. -.-... .-.- y., d. .....5. F..-

Great Loss of Cattle i'm Texas

Both the late cold weather and the drouth
have occasioned an immense loss of cattle in
many portions of Texas. Indeed, the stock
interest has not received for many years such
severe blow. According to the Texas pa
pers, it is estimated that 200, 600 head of Cat
tie have died during the past few weeks in
western Texas. The loss has been fearful
between the Guadalupe and Nueces rivers
In Goliad alone, 10000 animals have been
skinned, about an equal number in San Pat
rico and Karnes counties. The Herald says
that in space of one mile, opposite Helene,
LOCO or more animals have been skinned.
Within space of three miles, near Kennedy's
ferry, on the Neuces, 5000 more died, and
many OF the carcasses have heen stripped of
the hides. AT last accounts the cattle were
dying in Texas at fearful rate, from starva-
tion. After the cold weather came fearful
drouth, and there was literally no grass for
for them to subsist upon. So the loss of
stock in the counties above named, in Victoria,
Dewitt, Gonzales, and other neighboring
portions, this winter and spring, may be esti-
mated at about one half. We rejoice to learn
that abundant rains have recently fallen over
ali the State.-N o. Pscavune. March 21st.

A GREAT JOUHNAL.

The Missouri Democratic is conceded to be one
of the ablest and most influential Republican
journals in the West. Recently it underwent
polical change of proprietorship, the prop
erty passing into the hands of the senior of
the old firm, Mr.. Geo. w. Fishback, for the
sum of $456, 900. The Democrat now comes
to us enlarged to ten column sheet, printed
on a new six-cylindcr Hoe press, and much
improved in appearance. When the pending
change was in prospect the Chicago Tribune
took occasion to predict that it would be fol-
lowed by a change in the political attitude of
the Democrat. This is the Democrats answer
to the Vaccinations of the false prophet:
''And now a word as to the Democrat of
the future. Believing that the nearest ap-
proach to political perfection which men as
beings can make. is attainable through the
success of the Republican party, we shall
adhere to and support the principles, politics
and properly nominated candidates of that
party. Believing General Grant to be the
wisest choice of the Republican party; hay-
ing Endorsement for his past and confidence
in his future career as civil ruler, we shall
continue the advocacy of his nomination
until the Philadelphia Convention shall have
crystalized the party win in an accredited
nominee, who-be he General Grant or some
other worthy man-will receive our earnest
support in the great struggle between dis
guised Democracy and avowed Republican
ism, which Is certain to be the complexion of
the Presidential contest" -... -

The following are the provisions of the
California Civil Code, recently enacted, re-
lating to water rights
SEC 1,41O The right to the use of run
ming water flowing in a river or stream or
down a canyon or rayine may be acquired by
appropriation.
Sec. 1,411. The appropriation must be for
some useful or beneficial purpose, and when
the appropriation or his successor in interest
| ceases to use 1t for such purpose the right
| ceases.
Sec. 1,412. The person entitled to the use
may change the place of diversion if others
are not injured by such change, and may ex-
| tend the ditch, flume, pipe or aqueduct by
which the diversion is made to places beyond
| that where the first use was made
SEQ. Alb. The water appropriated may
be turned into the channel of another stream
and mingled with its water and then re-
claimed, but in reclaiming it the water al
ready appropriated by another must not be
diminished. ...'.
Sec. 1,414 AS between appropriations, the
one first in time is the first in right.
Sec. 1,415. A person desiring to appro-
pirate water must post notice, in writing,
in conspicuous place at the point of in
tended diversion, stating therein: /. That
he claims the water there flowing to the ex-
tent of (giving the number) inches, measured
under four inch pressure; 2. The purposes
for which he claims it, and the place of in
tended use; 8. The means by which he in
tends to divert it, and the size of the fume,
ditch, pipe or aqueduct in which he intends
to divert it. A copy of the notice must,
within ten days after it is posted, be recorded
in the office of the Recorder of the county
in which it is posted.
Sec. 1,416. Within. sixty days after the
notice is posted the claimant must commence

terruptedly to completion, unless temporarily
interrupted by snow or rain.
SEC. 1.417. BY completion" is meant
conducting the waters to the place of intended
use.
Sec. 1,418. BY compliance with the

was posted. ,,. .-. .,.
SEC. 1,419. A failure to comply with such
rules deprives the claimants of the right to

constructed works in which to divert it, and
who have not diverted or applied it to some
useTul purpose, must, after this title takes

ceases.
SEC. 1,421 The Recorder of each county
must keep book, in which he must record
the notices provided for in this title.
Sec. 1, ,422. The rights of riparian pro-
prietors are not affected by the provisions of

The Davis Party.

Judge Davis non-committal, halfway ac-
ceptance of the Labor Reform Presidential
nomination reminds the Berkshire (Massa-
chusetts) people of similar instance IN the
political history of Mr.. Henry Shaw, of
Lanesboro, the father of "Josh Billings" d"
MIR. Shaw was one day nominated by the old
Native American party for Governor of Mas
sachusetts, and accepted the nomination.
But it soon came out that he was the author,
under the signature of "Greylock," of a
series of newspaper articles which denounced
the party and its principles with all the logic
and pungency for which he was distinguished.
Of course this was bombshell in the camp,
and committee was dispatched to interview
the standard bearer. The candidate received
them with his Characteristic urbanity, but at
once acknowledged the paternity of the
" "Greylock" letters, and cut short their per-
picked remonstrances by saying, "Yes. gen.
tlemen, am, as you say, the candidate of
your party; I have accepted their nomina-
tion, but not their principles. That is your
affair, you must look out for that"

THERE are number Of words in the En-
glish language each of which contains all the
five regular vowels, but itwould puzzle almost
any one to think of more than one or two at
short notice. The following may be given
as examples: Education, Reputation, Regu-
lation, Emulation, Perturbation, Mensura-
tion, Reputation. Besides these there are
several words each containing all the VOW
els, including the ''y."' OF these we may
mention Revolutionary, Evolutionary and
Unquestionaby. The word ''indivisibility'
may be noted as peculiar word, for it con-
tains the letter 'ti'' six times. Mississippi
and Tennessee are each spelled with only
four different letters of the alphabet, although
one contains eleven letters and the other
nine. Schnapps, a word of one syllable and
eight letter, contains but one vowel There
than eight syllables, and of those Containing
that number we may mention ''incompre-
hensibility."
