each in his own sphere, to look up the
wayward wandering ones and bring
them IN. And this must be done
through al appliances. Oftentimes tho
Gospel could more effectuaIly be preach
ed through a new hat or pair of shoes
than through the New Testament.
The commission is to al "Go ye into
all the world and preach the Gospel"
Who is willing to-day to accept the
commission?
Rev. 7. C. Wilson continuing the
dis eussion said, the first need was zeal
IN the heart-a loving heart and earn
est purpose were necessary TO the work.
Members of the Church were not so
much needed in the Sabbath service
as in S. School work outside; one at
tendance on 5. service accompanied by
this personal service was far better for
the spiritual development of christian
character than attendance on these SER
vices merely.
a second need was the hearty union
of the different denominations. Little
differences should be set aside in this
work.
Another was knowledge, talent and
ability in the teachers. Still another
order and system in the conduct Of the
S. S. also carefulness and punctuslity
in attendance.
The best hour should be given, the
hour when nothing would be likely to
interfere with the exercise of school.
Everyone not member of the Sab
bath School should severely ask the
question why am | not Be he advan-
ced in life ne should be there to give
it character, if in his prime to show
his sympathy. All have need to know
more than they do Of the Word of
God.

IF I were called to point out the
most alarming sins to-day those
which are most deceitful in their inHu-
ence, and most soul destroying in their
ultimate effects-I would not mention
drunkenness with all its fearful havoc,
nor gambling with its crazed victims,
nor harlotry with its hellish orgies
but the love cf money OH the part Of
men, and the love Of display on the
part Of women. While open vice
sends It's thousands, these fashionable
and favored indulgences send their ten
thousands to perdition. They scar
the conscience. incrust the soul with
an inpenetrable shell of worldliness
debauch the affections from every
high and heavenly object; and make
man or woman the worshipper Of self
While doing all this, the poor victim
is allowed by public opinion to thlDk
himself or herself Christian; whsfa
the drunkard, the gambler or the pros
titute, is not deceived by such
thought for a moinent.-Dr. Holear0

so wisely and persistently advocated the
Brazilian steamship line, take the pro-
posed plan into consideration. It is very
difficult to find Western capitalists who
will, or indeed, can. put money into
ocean steam lines, but the enterprising
officers who represent the railroads can do
so by simply indorsing purchase or con-
struction bonds of the steamship COM
panies. It is practically adding SO much
to the length Of each Of their own roads.
Our st. Louis friends must remember
that a very few hundred thousands Of
dollars invested in ocean steamships from
New Orleans to the tropics will give them
a trade hundred fold more valuable than
that which they have obtained from India
with the expenditure of more than one
hundred millions Of dollars. If, then,
they will call the cities and companies in
die ated in this article into council, posi-
bly, a harmonious action may be secured.
Chicago and St. Louis will always quarrel
over corn and bacon, but they may agree
to drink cup of coffee together, and each
may stake sugar in theirn'' in the most
amicable manner.

MISPLACED TALENT.

Doubtless number Of very excellent
iurists were lost to the human race when
some of Judge Woods critics turned their
talents to Bohemianism, and thus spoiled
good judges to make Indifferent news
paper men. The qualities usually re-
quired to make good judge are learning,
patience, integrity and impartiality. Now
there is no objection to the present occu-
pant of the bench of the United States
Circuit Court in respect to any of the
above qualifications, except the last NAM
ed, impartiaIty. He is admitted to be a
man of great learning, sound judgment,
and answering integrity. But he is most
deici ent in the characteristic that our
Bohe mans are so rich in-impartiality.
Why, if one of these unbiased gentlemen
had been in Judge Woods place on re-
cent occasion, they would have sat so up
right that they would lean out Of court. In
order that there might be no doubtaboutit,
they would have sent Beckwith, Deklyne,
the ury and witnesses down for contempt
Of court, and discharged the prisoners
with an apology for having given them
any trouble. This would have been the
kind Of justice these impartial minds de-
mand in cases where the accused are their
political friends, leaving the business Of
balan cling the account till such time as
Ii u IL. .zp
was forced to forage for food for his starry
ing children came up for trial.
Impartiality is a very strong point with
our Bobemians. We know this to be a
fact, for they tell US SO themselves nearly
every day in the year. Down with our
Duke Aranzas and Judge Woods, and let
jacques and Dogberry rule in the high
places where "justice is dispensed with. !"

LET Us CHEER Up.

While many Of our citizens are wasting
their valuable time in idle gossip about
the arrest Of Berth, the Grant parish
trial and the difficulties of the kind
hearted Bernau, the telegraph brings Us
the welcome intelligence that the Senate
Com mittee will consider the canal bill
to- morrow morning with good prospect
of ia vorable action by it and the Senate.
Surely this is an event that calls for larger
hea dimes than the transactions of crimi-
nails Or local benevolent societies. While
some OF the people of this State persist in
sullenly standing in their own light, refus-
ing to lift a hand or stir a foot, lest the
exertlon result in benefit to somebody
else, our friends in Washington are
bravely struggling with commercial foes
for great and substantial advantage.
1t does not seem to be generally known,
at least the fact does not attract so much
attention as would an ordinary hen roost
robbery, that two distinguished engineers
are now in Washington trying to prevail
upon the government to take charge of
our levees. But the mission of Generals
Lon gstreet and Thompson are forgotten
in the wild excitement of letter from
Stellartin, purporting to be written from
"white mans standpoint" or the
squabbles of downtown club, which is
just now undergoing the process Of being
Matched out
If McCrary's bill, which provides for
expanding $4,000, 900 at the mouth of the
river, can be supplemented by another to
dish urse 100000 on the upper levees,
we may look for lively times in this city.
Real estate will rise rapidly in value, and
stay after it has once got up. The i'm
provement which would follow two such
events would be, moreover, per-
manent, as the work contemplated is to
be enduring. Let US try to deserve some
such success, and turn our attention to re.
joicing. We have been funereal rather
too long already. The exhibition of a
little backbone or manliness would be a
pleasant change from our present fearful
practices.
