mo. TAKES WATER"-The members of
Mississippi No. 9 subscribe to that sentl-
ment. but not in the sense that No. 9 offers
it. The war between these fire companies
has fairly broken out, and as we do not care
particularly to take sides we ask our readers
to carefully peruse the several cards pnb-
lished and Judge for themselves as to who
"takes water" All fremen are anxious to
see No. come forward and work against
the record of No. 2, beat it or take water, .
and thus close the controversy. Little good
can come from more newspaper cards,
and the quickest. surest way to settle
the question is for No. to- take
her engine and see what she can do on
a public trial with one hundred feet OF
hose, using river water; that is, take the
same advantages as No. 2 had when she
made her big throw. The proposition is so
plain that all the cards both companies can
issue will not drown the main point. When
a settlement is satisfactorily adjusted there
is another company, says rumor, that
wishes to take hand at good square
squirt for all the honors and as much money
as her hackers can gather in from oppo-
nents. Too much talk leaves little room
for hard work.

CHURCH PEWS.

The theory that modification of the
body is essential to piety is pretty
much exploded On the othor hand, it
is we'll settled that bodily ease and CON-
fort conduce to that spiritual abstraction
so difficult to attain and yet SO essential
to the freedom of the mental processes
and to the full play of the sentiments.
Yet it is singular anomaly that while
we have superseded the old straight
benches of the school-houses with curved
backed chairs; while we deem cushioned
settees, with patent arms to each seat,
essential to the enjoyment of the lively
and engrossing drama; and while in our
own houses we use arm chairs and rock
ers at pleasure-ne in church,
where it is incidentally difficult to sustain
the attention of the congregation, we still
content ourselves with the old-fashioned
pew, cushioned to be sure, but still offer
ing support to only one of the four sides
of the body. To say nothing of the alb
surd angle at which the back of the pew
is sometimes pitched, the fact that it has
no arms is sufficient explanation Of the
drawn countenances that stare up in a
vacant way at the preacher long before
he has finished his discourse, and also of
the stereotyped complaint of nervous
headache after service, on the part of
the ladies' To aggravate the matter, a
vicious custom gives the seat next to the
aisle, the only one with an arm, to the
man. If a certain portion of the floors
of our churches were left vacant, there
would be many who would prefer to pro-
vide their own seats, or, if that should
render the appearance of the church too
motley, uniform chair might be adopt
ed in place of the presentpew. Of course,
the pastors would not object, as no one
would disturb the easy sofa in the pull
pit. Churches that have pews will keep
them, we suppose, but those who are
building might consider this, among 9TH
