Feedinr In Cruu,bs.

From The GALVESTON Christian Advocated
Lazarus fed on crumbs because he
was too sick TO work for bread-too
poor 10 buy whole loaves. Whatever
we may think of the rich man giving
him nothing better, Lazarus can not
be blamed; he did the best he could
perhaps all he could, We have seen
IN exhibition OF spiritual pauperlsm
for which 80 satisfactory an apology
could not be- framed We have seen u
formal, nonaggresslve church lacking
zeal lacking love, and lacking will Ia
work, and IL may be, lacking charity
for those who did labor for souls; yet,
when the labor produced large and
glorious results, Were willing enough
To take the position Of spiritual pau
pers, and feed upon any crumbs which
fell from the tables Of those who had
been rich toward God In faith and
good works.
That sort OF pauperlsm which Is too
idle to work, and yet meanly greedy
enough to wish to appropriate and pos
sess the fruits Of an0thers toll, cannot
be condemned In terms too severe.
But have we not all seen this In those
idle churches sitting IN stately idle
ness and spiritual ease, while Others
were working for the Master and toll
ing hard for souls? Yes, we have; but
we have seen them, like the spiritual
paupers they are, reaching out with
immodest greed to avail themseles Of
other churches labors. Verify, the,
feed on the crumbs which fall from
other peoples tables. Alas for human
pride.

VesBers.

A South American correspondent
writes: "ro the traveller in Spanish
America the striking of the vesper
bells exercises potent charm. AS the
usage requires every one to halt, no
matter where he may be, at the first
stroke Of the bell, to Interrupt his con
versation, however important, and
listen without stirring until the con-
clusion of the chime, the singularity of
whole population surprised in mo-
ment as ii comes and goes, held in n
state of petriiication, and paralyzed as
If by an encounter, may be imagined.
On every side you see gestures inter-
rupted, mouths half opened for the ar
rested remark, smiles lingering or pass
ing into an expression of prayer.
"You would fancy them a nation of
statues. A town in South America, at
the tinkle of the Angelus, embles
the city in the Arabian Nights, whose
inhabitants were turned into stone.
The magician here is the bell-ringer
But hardly has the vibration ceased
when universal murmur arises from
these thousands of oppressed lungs.
Hand meets hand, question seeks an
swer conversations resumetheir course;
horses feel the loosened bride and paw
the ground; dogs bark, babies cry, the
fathers sing, the mothers chatter"

A Havana letter says Frederick
Dockery, n United States district attic
ney at Key West, about the cluG.lest
individual TO have been sent ON any
mission requiring II deal Of tact, has
come to grief owing TO his stupidity In
supposing he had the right to go about
as he pleased. II Is said he came here
on Il mission from General Quesada,
trying to arrange matters with Ces-
pedes in the interior, and fix things so
that Quesada could land with an expe-
dition. On the 9th instant, all tattered
and torn, Dockery presented himself
ut the Office of the United States con-
sui or agent in Neuvites, telling him he
had just come from the instruction
and was DESTROYS of surrendering to
the Spanish authorities, undoubtedly
thinking he would at once receive II
passport to go back to Key West. The
consul went with him TO the military
governor of the place, and he referred
the subject to General Partillo, who or
dered that Dockery and the consul be
placed in solitary confinement. Concha
ordered the release of the consul, but
appointed court martial to try Dock
cry as II spy the Thursday following.
The court martial sentenced him to
death, and the case was submitted to
General Concha, who, it is rumored, in
tends to spare his life as matter of
courtesy to the United States.

A YOUNG lady of Alabama, visiting
In Memphis, was lately walking along
the streets with young gentleman,
when he jolSingly proposed to step into
n church hard by and get married; the
young lady assented and started'tow
the church. When the young man
saw that she was disposed to humor his
joke, he backed down and acknowl-
edged himself beat. Proceeding a lit
tie further they met mutual acquain-
lance, u bachelor business man, and
the lady's companion told business
how she had backed him out on the
matrimonial proposition, whereupon
business remarked to her, "You can't
back me out" She answered, ayes, |
can" The parties laughed and chatted
little, when they started off to get
the license, each supposing the other
would give it up; but the document was
duly procured and the matter began to
look serious. The next thing was to
tie the knot; at length q preacher was
found; by this time both parties began
to draw long breaths, but neither
would give up to the other. They en-
tered the church and the preacher pro-
nOunccd the words that made them
husband and wife, and there was no
flinching from the vows; neither would
take a "dare," and the result was a
marriage.

The latest snake story comes from
Connecticut, Some workmen building
n mill among the rocks on Weslfeld
river killed II rattlesnake, and after
seyoring the head from the trunk ana
cutting the rattes or the till for a Keep
sake, Kicked the head away into tho
sand and threw the trunk into the sun.
A booted boy came along and could
not resist the temptation to worry the
dead snake. He trod on It's tail and the
headless trunk Of the reptile turned and
struck the boot as II TO bite. The fright
ened youth soon had an audience
around him, aud the experiment Of
treadlng on the snakes tail was repeat
eddy tried with the same result. But
another startling thing was observed,
Az often IA the carcass coiled and
struck the offending boot, so often, and
at the self-same instant, the grim re-
pulsive head lying discovered In the
dust opened It's jaws, the deadly iangs
protruding, and closed them with Il
snap. There was no scientist there TO
see, but these simple mill builders
want TO know the philosophy of this
sort Of post-mortem snake life. The
experiment may be tried until the
snakes run out.

The negro officials of South Carolina
are fast developing the prevailing weak
ness of the race. The telegraph informs
us of the imprisonment of the treasur-
er of Orangeburg county for stealing
thirty thousond dollars of the public
funds, while the negro who held the
same Office in Fairfield was also in Jail
for large defalcation. This is only
the beginning. We doubt if there are
five honest negro officials in the state,
and we hope to hear of the rest of the
thieves being brought to justice. But
what's the chance where the juries are
negroes and only white mems money
has been stolen ?-[ Atlanta Herald.
