"NOne Other. Nanle."-By Rev
Newman Hall.

knew OF case of merchant in
London who was deeply impressed
with his sinfulness and his need of sal
walton, and he was laboring earnestly
to be saved. He altered his outward
conduct; he began to read religious
service, and regularly went to his
church; but he could not find peace.
lie tried to put himself through GER
tain mental and spiritual exercises;
still it was all in vain. The burden on
his conscience seemed to become heav-
ier, his sorrow and grief deeper and yet
more deep. While he was in this state
of distress he was walking one day
along one of the thoroughfares of the
c:ty of London, which l know very
well, across a bridge over canal, at
the end of which, in "a spot where traf-
fic could rot be interrupted, blind
MN was accustomed to sit and read
fom sraised Bible-that wonderful
invention by which the blind can read.
lie was sitting there reading out loud,
receiving pence from the passengers
who chose 'to help the poor blind
man." AS this gentleman passed he
saw a crowd; he went up to the edge OF
the crowd to see what was going on,
nd as he stood upon that spot the
blind man was reading this verse /:
J fsNeither is there salvation in any 9TH
e.: for there is. none other name" He
cime to the bottom of the page, and as
he-was turning over he repeated, (as
one does when he can not lind the
place. "None other name-none other
namev' This gentleman walked on
Jout his business, but he could not
fJ-get the words that he had heard /:
: s.None other name-none other name!'
On he went, and still the words. were
sounding ia his mind: None other
natne--none other namen' Through
the hustle OF the day the still small
voice kept repeating: "None other
) raiue-,ffonc. other namen He went
10 his home at night, and as he went
the words were still in his mind !:
"None other name" He reached his
home, and still the words were ringing
like evening chimes Nth plaintive
voice, s.None other name! none other
name! none other !" And now
like matin-bells rejoicing from some
village spire: "NOne other name
none other name!" "Oh!" thought he,

simplicity of faith, as little child he
sought Jesus and cast himself on Him
alone, and then reJoiced with joy un-.
speakable and full of glory.

A FALSE STEP.
by MRS. X. B. BROWNING

o1 1nNSs Es b. BhOHNlN0.
Sweet, thou hast trod on heart
Pass there's world full of men,
And women AZ fair as thou art,
Must do such thing now and then.
Thou hast only stepped unaware,
Malice not one can impute;
And why should heart have been there,
In the way ofa fair woman's foot?
1t was not stone that could trip,
Nor was it thorn that could rend;
Put up thy proud under-lip!
Twas merely the heart of friend.
And yet, peradventure, one day,
When sitting alone at the grass,
Remarking the bloom gone away,
Where the smile in itsdimplement was,
And seeking around thee In vain
From hundreds who fiuttered before,
Such o word as "Oh, not in the main
Do hold thee less precious, but morer'
Thou'lt sigh, very like, on thy past:
"Of all have known or can know,
Iwish had only that heart
trOd up0n ages apOl"

and 50 simple that ali can understand them
and be governed hy them. not so many and
so complicated that they produce mystifica-
tiOn and confusion and bring on the very
trouble they were intended TO avoid. The
truth Is, much of the old parliamentary law
is unreasonable, and as useless as the old
John Doe and Richard Roe in an action Of
ejectment. It is really amusing to read
over the Congressional records and observe
the learned jargon by the Speaker aud 9TH
ers about ''exhausting the previous ques-
ton" on this or on that, and then again re-
meningitis life after it has been ''exhausted, .
or Iesurrecting it from the grave. There
really seems no end to anything under the
rules, and when vote is taken it
looks like it was an accident or
by the will of the Speaker. The
effect of an amendment and an
amendment to an amendment, and a substi-
tute for the amendment, or both amend
ments, and the application of the previous
question to all these, and the control which
different stages and positions of all these
questions gives to a member, and shifting
of this control of bill from one member
to another, and the effect of committals and
recommittals of bills, and the instructions
given, which amount to nothing in the end,
and the calling Of the yeas and nays, and
the motions to adjourn. aud test votes, So
called, which none understand and many
call for an explanation of, and finally vote
differently from what they Intended to do
and want to change their votes and can't
all these things make confusion and up
roar worthy of pandemonium. To us, the
practice of getting the floor and then par
ceiling out the time by five and ten min
utes, to the holders friends, the honorable
Tom, Dick and Harry, who, for aught we
know, sometimes pay for it, appears very
reprehcnsible, and so, too, the general
agreements in opposition to the rules, which
are generally broken or amount to nothing.
We believe parliamentary law needs thor
ough reformation. AS it is carried out in
the United States Congress, il is a decided
bore and a great hindrance to business. We
have no respect for rules that hinder in
stead of facilitating business, and which
are frequently rcsorted to to prevent the
real voice of the body from being heard.
Why should rules be invented and estab-
lished under the effect of which member
is compelled to vote differently from what
he desires, or behind which he may hide to
do something he wants to do but does not
wish ms constituents to know it? The
whole system is wrong, judging from the
way it works, and should he reformed thor
oughly. Who will have the boldness to
start it? Why should so much time be
spent in doing nothing and preventing any
ching from being done2

Friday morning we had the pleasure of a
visit from our esteemed friend, Hon w. H.
Swift, Senator elect from the Second Dis
trict. We are glad to state that he is in
excellent health, and wears the same
genial face that we have already learned
to recognize so well in our midst. Scna-
tor Swift is about to enter on his third term
as State Senator. He was a member of the
Senate OF the Twelfth, and again of the
Thirteenth Legislature. His home is
Nacogloches county, where he has lived for
a number Of years. and built upa confidence
in the midst Of lis neighbors which has in
duced them to cling to him in their hours Of
trial. lie is a Democrat Of the South Car
olina school, and combines within himself
prudence and determination.
VIC also acknowledge a visit from Hon.
William GcIlatly. member elect OF the House
from the Second Senatorial District, whom
VIC have had the pleasure Of meeting for the
first time lie is a social and pleasant gen
tleman, and We hope to know him much
better in the future

TO cali into existence the old, the only
points worth knowing We understand he
stated that he had referred the whole mat
ter 10 the authorities at Washington, and
would be governed by their determinations,
as if they really had something to do with
the matter more than the man IN the moon.
After that, we can hardly see how the edi-
tor Of the Gasette, with his professed no
tions Of State rights, can indulge in much
''hoper that his old friend will ultimately
do right As to ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Of the
Governor, that he was fairly beaten, every
body knew that, including Grant and his
telegraphic Attorney General, who is not
likely, after all, to become another ''Buchu
Judge" The Governor could not see the
''easy solution" profTered by his friend
Elliott, for there was the telegraph in the
way. We think it is full time to quit ex-
pressing any confidence in Governor Dayis
orany 'hope' of his doing any thing right
and patriotic. lie has been at the bottom
Of all our troubles, and is the cunning insti-
gator of every wicked movement, and han
dies Jack Hamilton and the enmined scala
wags and carpet-baggers as so many pup
pets. We have nothing to hope or expect
from Governor Davis. He will go just as
FAR as he darcs SO and the Federal govern
ment will back. lie hates the people OF
Texas, whom he knows he has injured and
offended past all thought Of pardon, and he
will do the worst he can-mark our words
Tie may talk softly and sugary 10 his friend,
Col. Elliott, at his own house and in the
presence of one of our worthiest citizens,
but there is not the slightest dependence to
be placed in him, for he has talked that way
before and acted otherwise. Did he not
promise to give up his Office in january, if
Inc was not reelected? VIII he dare deny
this. No, within the last three weeks he
has confessed it. Does he not now aeknowl-
edge that he was fairly beaten" Why
then not get out of the way? Can he recon
cilc :hese things with a proper regard for
truth and honesty? Let HIM try, if he can.

GOVERNOR DAVIS TO THE FRONT.

The State J0,pWal in an article addressed
to 'patriotic Democrats, " calling on them
for aid in their desperate attempt to hold
on to the government of the State after they
have been so overwhelmingly repudiated by
the people, continues to assert that the
present difficulty is solely of Democratic
origin" 1t will have it that the election
law is solely the work of the Democrats.
1t knows this position is false. Why does
it leave out Governor Davis! The election
law is no more the work of the Democratic
Legislature than it is the work of Governor
Davis, the head and chief of the Radical
party in Texas It was submitted to him.
1t underwent his revision. Itwas altered
to please him and meet his views. 1t was
then deliberately approved and signed by
him without which it could never have be-
come Il law How then can the journal have
the audacity to denounce the law as the
work of the Democracy alonel Why does
it wilfully falsify the record? Because it has
no regard for truth when it stands in the
way of its partisan interests. Yet with
this falsehood on its lips it dares hypocriti-
cally to talk of moderation, to deprecate
violence and military interference, and to
call on patriotic Democrats" to aid the
Radicals in carrying out their plotted work
of villainy. We tell the Journal that this
attempt to misrepresent the situation and
cover up the base conspiracy of its party
will be futile. 1t cannot ignore Governor
Davis in this matter. 1t was his election
law, and if he does not stand up to it he will
act the part of perjured knave. He was
sworn to observe the Constitution He can
not plead ignorance Of its provisions. 1t
was of his own making, and he knew what
he meant by it when he signed and APP
proved the election law. He cannot hide
behind corrupt court, appointed by him
self and ready to do his bidding. He will
be dragged to the front and, if the matter
is ever brought before the Congress of the
United States, he will be stripped, exposed
in his naked deformity, and be stamped
with infamy, brand so burned into his
character that he will carry it with him to
his dying day. He had better ponder over
this before he takes the final step.

THERE has been street talk OF fearful tel
egraphic dispatches from Attorney General
Williams to the Radical officials here, which
we presume Is all stuff, made ont Of little
or nothing. The Attorney General has
lately received from the United States Sen
ate a rcbaff and general raking down
from the press Of both parties, which will
not dispose him to be trying doubtful expc-
riments. His standing, just at present, is
by no means eenviqblt. Wc have no idea
that he will give orders to diaperse with
bayonets the legal Legislature Of Texas. It
would be rather a serious matter.
