Applications for Licenses for inns
and TaVeFnR,

Some Of the parties applying 10 the Courts for
licenses have horror OF appearing IN tho public
prints and have sought in every way possible TO
evade the true intent aud meaning of the law,
which evidently Is that the inn tavern shall be
sanctioned by the tacit assent of the neighbors or
those living in the vicinity school district where
the house Is located, well as by the Court, and
hence the notice with the names of freehOlders
required 10 be secured to the application, and
published. Ii will therefore not answer that a
hotel keeper in Brandywine hundred publish his
notice in ST. Georges hundred, nor will it be like
ly to answer the intent oil the law il published in
q foreign Language. As well might the Sheriff at
tempt to publish the sales in a foreign language
In this State the English language alone Is recog-
nized rs the legal medium through which to con-
vey such intelligence to the people. II publishing
in German will ans Wer, why not publish in French
or Greek or Latin. We fancy that the TIslble fac
ulties OF the Chief Justice would scarcely be CON
trolled If be were presented with printed copy OF
tie notice of an application for license in Greek.

Judge Houston especially is more fond of looking
after the living than the dead languages, but we
fancy that even the young gentlemen on the
Bench will have to apply their glasses more ire
quently than they like when asked to determine
whether signatures to these applications are cor

"A PdsititIsl," who, ihAte Il lGvAry IedsSn 10

Modern TH'nker the following predictions, which,
10 say the least, were curious:
3 predict that within the coming two years
tins country will experience the worst financial
panic known to its history. 1t will be more wide
spread and disastrous than even that OF 1887. All
the debts created by our paper money era will be
wiped out or compromised. LaDd will tsmpoIFf-
iiy fall TO one half its present valUfe.
This panic will be precpitated IN all prOba
bility, by III failure of the Northern Pacific Rails
road, and perhaps OF the bankers who manage II.

of fraud ia connection with our railroads, as to

The Democratic oretors

Are doing good work on the stump in New
York and Maryland, where the people will meet
the paid hosts OF Radicalism at the hustings, Oh
'cuesday. In Baltimore. on friday night, an i'm
mense meeting of our Democratic friends was
held, aud many excellent sentiments uttered 10y
the speakers. We make the following extract
from the report in the Ga-ette, Of the speech OF
JAMES A. l. MCCLURE, ESQ:

Teaching Birds to Sing Tunes.

This is done in the town of
Fulda, where they keep regular
educational institutions for bull
finches. They place the young
birds into classes of six to ten
each, and keep them in the
dark, turning a little hand-or-
gan for them whey then are fed.
Finally, the birds commence to
associate the music with the
feeding, and when hungry they
commence to sing a few notes
of the tunes they hear daily.
Those who do this are at once
placed in a more cheerful room,
when some light is admitted.
This encourages them and
makes them more lively. Then
they like to sing, and are soon
taught more. The most difficult
part is the first starting of the
birds, some of which have to be
kept a long time in the dark,
and on starvation rations, be-
fore their Obstinacy is overcome.
In order to teach them several
tunes, they receive (after being
thus first taught in classes)
private instruction from the lit
tie boys of Fulda, each of
whom has a few private pupils
of this sort. Their education
lasts nine months, when it is
completed, and the birds sent
into the world as accomplished
performers.

Record Only the Bright Hours.
TO BE CONTINUED.

On a Spanish sun-dial is writ
ten, 81 mark only the bright
hours" This is wise. There
is more sunshine than shade,
more bright than dark hours to
be remembered. The trials and
sorrows of life are not sent to
shroud us In mourning, but for
our instruction, and spiritual
growth, and usefulness. The
temper and dispositions of the
heart, as we'll as the expansion
and capacity of the faculties,
depend much upon the trials
and disappointments of life.
These are forces developing the
race. Hence the Christian
should not murmur and repine
at his lot, but with confident
trust in Gods goodness and
wisdom, regard every trial, how
ever severe, as a stepping stone
to usefulness here and brighter
joys above. The Christian war
fare must be uniformly main
tanned and waged according to
Gods Word to be successful.
The skillful general plans his
battles according to the impul-
ses, feelings and whims of the
moment. So the consistent SOL
dier of the cross, to insure sue
cess, must study the Word of
life diligently and prayerfully,
until his soul triumphs in a liv-
ing faith and trust in Jesus.
Difficulties will then seem light,
and fade into vapor as we jour
ney homeward.

From the Peoria Review.
Black-and-Tan Dog Tackles a
Turtle.

If anybody has seen a black
and-tan dog answering to the
name of "Judge," going down
street in company with a hard
she'll turtle, that won't answer
to anything, and certainly
won't answer to tackle, as the
dog can tell you if you can get
him to stop long enough, please
halt the clipping pair, as they
are the property of the editor of
this paper. We are fondly at
tached to the dog on account of
his vagabondish, Bohemianish
habits. He knows. every dog
in Peoria by name, and is on
speaking terms with nine
tenths of the granger dogs that
come in under the wagons, and
he knows more of the inhabi-
tants Of this city than the tax
collector does. The turtle is a
more recent acquisition. 1t was
placed in the backyard yester-
day, and the dog spent an hour
and a half trying to entice it to
come out of it's shell and be So
ciable. The old iron-clad main
tanned his reserve, however,
until the dog crammed his nose
against the forward part and
began to sniff. The pair SEEM
ed to come to some sort of un-
derstanding at once, for the dog
made an impetuous remark on
a very high key, and they both
started on trip after Donald
sons balloon. When the dog
jumped over Fishers barn, we
thought he had struck the east
ern current and would get
right through, but we learn
since that he landed and was
seen sauntering along like a
whirlwind, the turtle staying
right by him. We should be
very sorry to lose the dog now,
as he has acquired another i'm
portant and valuable quality.
He knows more about turtles
than any other dog in the
country, and it's mighty hard
to find a real good turtle dog.

Loss and Gain.

How much shall | lose if |
become a Christian +? Sin is
my misery, but if l go to Christ,
| shall lose that. Christ in
vites me to come to Him on
condition that, as a bound and
fettered one, chained and cap
tive in Satan's dungeon, I give
up my letters, prison and dark
ness, and my captivity, and
shall | count these things a
loss Can a poor captive think
that he loses anything by leav-
ing his prison and shaking off
his letters? Sin is my sick
ness, my soul S consumption.
My whole head is sick, my
whole heart is faint. It is even
worse than this, for sin is a
plague in my heart. There is
no soundness in me my mala-
dy is a mortal one. But these
dreadful diseases | shall lose if
| come to Christ, the great
Physician. When the prodigal
came to his father, he came to
himself. Having learned that
sin is my souls sickness,
plague, poison, and deformity,
shall / still. prefer keeping all
this, and stay away from the
Lamb of God, who taketh away
the sin of the world Gospel
Trumpet.

Besetting Sins.

The good man daily acquires
a delicacy of PERCEPTION and
feeling,before whose penetrating
gaze his inmost imperfections
are laid bare. His outward
blemishes, his grosser faults,
may be amended. But the sins
which cling closest, which wind
themselves subtly through the
fibers Of his nature-his pride,
vanity, self-conceit, self-indul-
gence, and, above all, the dis
loyalty of his self-will to the
will of the All-Good - these
grow only more apparent. He
finds that to purify the fountain
head of emotion in the soul, to
cleanse its depths from all that
defiles it, to drive out lurking
i'll from its recesses, and to un-
twine the serpent coils of sell
fishness from his purposes and
plans, his aims and interests,
is a vastly harder work than
building fair walls of outer de-
corum. Some powerful excite
ment, some unwonted trial, will
rouse into action lawless impul-
ses, over whose subjection he
had sung songs of triumph.
Long, dormant evils, awakened
by adverse temptations, by a
rush of prosperity, or a shock
of adversely, by flattery or by
persecution and peril, will burst
forth from their hiding places
with such violence as almost to
make him doubt the reality Of
his religious life. AT such try
ing seasons, a secret ejacula-
ton, cry of the soul for Gods
grace, brings home to the good
man his instant dependence.
With what grounds of joy does
he then hold fast to the assur-
ance that he is never alone,
for the Father is with him; !; that
the Living Source of all good
is near 70 him as his own life,
and ready to renew him with
light and strength from heaven.

Home on the Farm.

The farm preserves the family
in it's integrity. Home centers
in that charming word, and
that still more charming thing,
the freside-arOund which pa
rents and children gather, and
where the bright and cheerful
blaze upon the hearth is but a
true type of the flame of love
that glows in every heart. The
parents have been drawn to-
gether, not by the sordid mo-
tives of wealth, or by the am
bilious desire of social display,
but for the personal qualities
seen in each other. The glory
of that fireside to the husband
is that the wife is there, and to
the wife that he is there. Here
they gather at morning, and at
noon, and at evening. Their
board is almost always sur
rounded with the same circle.
Here they spend the long win
ter evenings together, enliven-
ed with the school-books of
children, the newspapers and
journals, and works of history
and science. A constant hom-
ogeneous influence goes forth
from this circle to the young
hearts that are moulding there.
Paternal vigilance guards the
young against wicked compan-
ions. If these comprehensive
religious influences are right in
that home, they all grow up to
be good citizens, to be the pill
lars of society, wherever their
lot may be cast. The sons fol-
low the business of their father
as soon as their labors are
available. They are with him
in the field, and by the way,
and at home. They form in
dustrious habits, and are pre-
pared for the responsibilities
of life.

Progress Of Reform.


The County Court of Clay
county, Missouri, amid the ac-
clamation of a large concourse
of citizens, unanimously made
an order refusing to grant dram
shop license to any person
within the limits of that county.
The names of the Justices of
the Clay County Court who
made that order should be
known in every part of that
great State, and they are
William H. Lane, Thomas M.
Wilson, and John Broadhurst.
These gentlemen have indeed
done a noble thing. They
should be congratulated from
one end of the country to the
other, and we most heartily ex-
tend to them our commenda-
ton. The County Court no
doubt reflects the will of the
people of that county. Recent
events show that the people up
there know how to do the right
thing at tho right time. Dur
ing the past year their liberal
ity has been conspicuous
ticularly in the matter of the
College--and they now take
the front rank in social reform.

Is He Rich ?

Many a sigh is heaved, many
a heart is broken, many a life
is rendered miserable by the
terrible infatuation which per-
sons often manifest in choosing
a life companion for their
daughters. How is it possible
for happiness to result from
two principles as diametrically
opposed to each other in every
point, as virtue to vice ? And
yet how often is wealth consld-
cred a better consideration for
young men than virtue ? How
often is the first question
which is asked respecting the
suitor of a daughter, this: els
he rich ?" Yes, his clothing is
purple and fine linen, and he
fares sumptuously every day I;
but can you tell from this that
he is virtuous 4? els he rich ?"
Yes, he has thousands floating.
on every ocean, but do not rich
es take to themselves wings
and fly away? And will you
consent that your daughter
shall marry a man who has
nothing to recommend but his
wealth ? All! beware The
gilded bait sometimes covers a
bearded hook Ask not, then,
"Is he rich ?" Ask, "Is he vir-'
tuous ?" Ask not, then, if he
has wealth, but has he honor!
and do not sacrifice your daugh-
ters peace for money.
