Pray IN YouR FAMILY.-says Rev
Norman Mcleod
Il shall never forget the impression
mode upon me, during the first year of my
ministry, by a mechanic whom l had
visited, and on whom urged the paramount
duty of family prayer. Ono day he ems
tered my study, bursting into tears, as
ho said, You remember that girl, sir
she was my only child. She died sud
denly, this morning; she has gone, |
hope, to God. But if SO, she can tell
Him what now breaks my heart, that she
never heard a prayer in hertathcr's house,
or from her fathers lips Oh. that she
were with me but for one day again ?"

LET US BE HAPPY.

Let MS be happy while we may,
Danish gloom and sadness,
Grief may come another day,
Now wen welcome g~ladness;
Songs shall float upon the air.
Music cheer our duty.
Smiles shall make each face more fail
With transcendept beauty.
oh be happy while you may,
DO not yield to sorrow,
Darkest night will pass away
Bright will be the morrow;
Though the blue sky be o'ercast,
There's silver lining
To the standardization tbs past
The bright sun will be shining.

a shadow robed in vopor, with a far-of
sunlight shining through. The present
is around us passing away, passing away.
And we? D, fearful il deed, is this
carth'S pilgrimage, when the soul has
learned that all its sounds are echoes, all
its sights are shadows! But lol the
clouds open, and face serene and hopeful
looks forth and thus says, BE thou as
"a little child, aud thus shalt thou become
~ Scraph. The shadows which lerplex
thce are all realities, the echoes are all
from the eternal voice, which gave to
light its being, And the changes around
thee are but images Of the infinite and
the true, seen in the mirror of time, as
thoy pass by, each on heavenly mission"

GREAT MIsTAKEs.-It is u great mis-.
take to set up our own standard of right
and wrong, and judge people accordingly.
IT is great mistake to measure the enjoy
mcnt of others by our own to expect uni
fornlity of opinion in this world to
look fer judgment and experience in
youth to endeavor to mould all dispo,
sitions alike not to yield in immaterial
tlifcs to look for perfection in our own
action; to worry ourselves and other
with what cannot be remedied not tc
alleviate all that needs alienation, as lar
rs lies in our power; to consider every.
thing impossible which we cannot perform ;
to believe only what our finite minds can
grasp to expect to be able to understand
everything. The greatest OF all mistakes
is to live only for time, whom any mo,
mcnt may launch us into eternity.

the grave, even weeps with us, and best of

WHA- A RECOLLECTION MARY
Anna was a poor little orphan child,
about se7en years old. Her mother had
been dead nearly two years. Soon after
her death Mary learned to pray, and
often sought the blessing of the gentle
Saviour, who loves the little ones 50
much.
One time as Miss L., a Christian friend,
was talking with hOr, she asked heri she
could remember anything about her
mother.
Yes" said the little girl, Il remember
she never told me about tho Saviour"
What d sad remembrance is this for a
child,
Mother, if you should die to,duy, and
leave your little ones, could they say this
Of you? If 50, see to it, that they could not
say it Tomorrow. In the morning SOW
the seed, and trust the Lord to give the
increase.

s.SALE OF THE COMPTROLLER's
OFFICE

Prom the Memphis Appeal, Aug. 10.
We publish to-day letter from ex-Co.hp-
troler Hobbs, fully verifying and sustaining
tho statements made by Comptroller Burch
in bis letter published by us on Sunday last.
With this the charge of bargain and sale
falls to the ground. Both parties to the al

same effect. They deny IN toto anything
in the direction Of purchase, and since the,

not 10 he d6cried by merely idle and NAL
icious gossip, we think they are TO be re-
lisved before anything short of positive,
point-blank testimony, which so far has not
been forthcoming. 1t is at the best
but dirty business, this thing of
charging corruption without ample proof,
and argues on the part Of these who in
dHlge 10 it a want of ability to cope with
political opponents. 1t is easier to pull
down than to build up, and there is no
style Of writing so easy IS the malicious, for
the same reason that virago can say what

But there are some men who are never
easy unless engaged In this sort of dirty
business. They are of the jacks1 kind,
who 60 smelling about and nos!ng into pri.
vste affairs. They can't help it, perhaps,
for SIT is their nature to-" but they are none
the less to be avoided, just as people would
avoid plague. But we have this consola-
tion-their's, in the long run, is losing
game. 1t has SO far proven so n the case

MADISON COUNTY-TROUBE
BREWING

From the jackson Wing and Tribune, Aug 16.
For the last ten days or two weeks fire.
quent collisions have occurred between
whites and blacks. Several gel ious affrsys
are reported by the police. Intense exas.
perstion exists and ihe feeling of bitterness
IS spreading among both eolors. Fights
have occurred both day and night, and the
Pohce Court has been crowded several
hours every day in trying the belligerents.
we fear that serious trouble is brewing,
and hence would warn the authorities to be
their guard
On Monday at noon, q party Of nine SOL
diers from Humboldt barracks, commanded
by Lieut.. NOles, and accompanied by Can't.
Atlee, Of Memphis, and a Mr.. McDougal,
of Huntingdon, arrived in this city. Their
presence excited considerable conjecture,
but nothing of their destination or objacS
could be cleaned from their conversation
About three or four o'clock in the evening
they left on horses, going In the direction
OF Lexington. Laterly we learned that
they were after party of Ku Klux, ESQ.,
called) who murdered some negroes in De-
catur county weeks ago, and some other
persons Who resisted arrest at the hands of
Deputy Marshal Morgan of Decatur. Also
to>t they will attend to few revenue cases
in Henderson and Decatur counties before
returning. They passed through Lexing-
ton on Monday night, but further informa-
ti5n of their movements has not reached
US.
The trial of Ambros9 and Mack Reid,
two well known and highly connected
young men of this county, as accessories
before the fact in the killing of John Ram
alton West by negroes several weeks ago,
came to close on Thursday, After day
and half consumed in examining witness
es and in speeches, the court bound the
young men over to the Circuit Court in a
bond of one thousand dollars each, No
case for years has excited more interest, but
the trial had has materially sofJened public
opinion with regard 10 the young Reds.
