SECOND DIVISION.

To crown our Jesus king.
SECOND DIVISION.
At the same feIicitous moment that
the head of the heavenly column was
slowly moving up Beale street, the peO-
pie Of the Second Division were mar
shaling their forces further up Second
street. The head of this division rested
on Monroe street. The Division Mar
shall, Mlr. B. f. Ball, however, had his
command in very neat order and ready,
in military phraseolOgy, to execute any
order that might be issued, in the quick
/ est possible time. AT the head of this
division the children of the
CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
formed the leading battalion, with
their pretty banner, inscribed, "Peace
on earth to men of good WILL This
was very appropriate to be carried in
front of an army division, whose
objects are peace and b~eneficence.
Those little matters have their effect.
The men of hard-fisted toll, and the
money-grabbers, the proverbially hard
of heart and the unfeeling of human
kind felt their metallic eyes gradually
soften into tears as these heavenly SEN
timents were read by them, One
after another, and because they felt
that the little innocent hearts which
put them forth were earnest and without
quite. The Congregational Church Sun
day-schoOl numbers about eighty pupil.

and numbered over one hundred pupils.

corner of Beale and Main streets, q lively
urchin at the corner exclaimed "Wheu
Here comes a buster" The irreverent
little wretch was acting as free reader
and generalSir Oracle for a small crowd
of wicked urehins that he apparently
had under his reprobate tuition, and he
enlightened them freely on the general
plan of the campaign. The exclamation
was forced out of him as the superb
blue silk banner of the
CUMBERLAND PRESBYTERIAN
Church came to view, in the front of
which was inscribed in large gold letters
Cumberland Presbyterian Sabbath
as that he who ran might read,
and on the other that solid scriptural
and p~oetical piece of advice:
awe must keep our armour bright,
And always watch and pray"
