A German prince, travelling through
France, visited the arsenal of Toulon,
where the galleys are kept. The
commandant, as compliment to his
rank, said he was welcome to let any
one slave at liberty whom he should
select. The prince, willing to make
the best use of his privilege, spoke
to many of them in succession, in
quiring why they were condemned
to the galleys. Injustice. oppres-
sion, false accusation. were the only
causes they could assign. They
were all innocent aud illtreated. At
last he came TO one who. when asked
the same question, answered to this
effect:
ANY lord. have no reason to com
plain; | have been very wicked,
desperate wretch. | have often de-
served to be broken alive on the
wheel. ! account it great mercy
that | am here"
The prince fixed his eyes upon
him, gave him gentle blow upon
the head, and said
You wicked wretch. it is pity
you should be placed among SO many
honest men: by your own confession
You are bad enough to corrupt them
all; but you shall not stay with them
another day" Then turning TO the
officer. he said: This is the man,
sir, whom | wish to see released.
Such is the story; let me interpret
it. If still prisoner of Satan, apply
il T. yourself, take your place as
gull ', and get The blessing Of free
dom. These slaves Were all oHand-
ers, but only one knew and owned IT.
A deep lesson may be taught to our
souls by the way God deals with
sinners. He will have all the world
before him as guilty, and every
mouth stopped. If we take that
place now. we get free discharge,
for the blood of Jesus has paid our
ransom.
The time is quickly coming when
all who are now making excuses for
themselves, and looking innocent,
will, with shame, have to take their
place as guilty, and without hope
forevermore.-Bo Baptist Weekly.

From John +. Dillon, Judge Of u. s.
Circuit Court
Educated labor is always in demand.
Commercial Colleges well conducted
supply an obvious educational need.
The course of instruction is essentially
and pointedly practical. 1t Is not in lieu
of, but rather supplementary to, school
or academical education. 1t connects
these with the every day duties and
practical business of life Young men
contemplating LIFE OF BUSINESS can,
in my judgment, most probably pursue
q course of instruction in the Davenport
Business College.

"Bob" Toombs has been heard
from. The ''rehel velI' at New
Orleans aroused him from Rip Van
Wink!e sleep, and he commenced
talking at about the place where he
left off when he promised that he
would one day call the roll of his
slaves at the foot Of Bunker Hill
monument. The resuScitation took
place at Madison, Georgia. where, in
abiding to the mention Of his name
for Governor. he said:
"Some of his enthusiastic friends
had announced hat he would he a
candidate for Governor. Well. if
they could stand it, he could, and if
he ever was elected Governor, he
would be Governor. sure enough.
