Charley Phelps.

Our warm-hearted, active, ardent
friend, full of cheerful mirth and joy
Gus humor, is gone from our sight, but
not from our memory. One of the
affective things connected with the
passage of our friends into the unseen
world has been sort of loss to us, of
their individual identity. In the
vague ideas of blessedness and glory
we lose the personality, and the dis
tinctive traits to which our souls
cling. There is a theology in the hu-
man soul-placed there by God Him.
self-that rises above the gloomy con-
ceptions of the divines of the present
age; which penetrates beyond the
grave and pictures brighter scenes
there, than our modern theologians
dare paint for our comfort. In
spite of all teaching to the contrary,
we will conceive our friends gone to
a "hOme" of rest and quiet, adapted
to their nature and progress-a home
with duties, with varied employment,
with social intercourse and friendship,
with opportunities for advance in all
knowledge, land with wide and WIDEN
ing sphere of active usefulness. All
nature teaches it, the Bible teaches it,
and the soul of man teachei it. If it
be not so, man was made mockery.
All men acknowledge Christ as great
teacher and the Christian world ac-
knowledges Him to be God. Look at
His life on earth, and see how He
united the most exalted divine COM
munion with human naturalness. He
is so warm, so human, so simple and
so comprehensive, that in every coun-
try each mortal being had only to
hear His story, to love Him with
grateful heart. See how He always
respected human individuality. Like
tender parent adapting Himself to it
in his disciples. He treated John
as poetic idealist. Peter as an inn
petuous, energetic man, and Thomas
as sincere skeptic. He reasoned
with Martha,a strong-minded woman,
but with the tender confiding Mary He
wept. In the management OF regula-
| tion of that world where our friends
have gone, and He is Lord, we must
expect to find individuality respected.
We are not to suppose all the facul-
| ties of this life are to be smothered in
vacuum or cease their play, but that
ample provision is made for their ap-
propriate exercise. Our friend is in
different circumstances, but that
sacred sphere of individuality by
which we know him from all others is
unbroken. We will know him again
when we meet him, and all innocent
| personalities intact.

A very interesting case was up be-
fore Justice Gray yesterday in which
Chinaman named "Sam" brought
action for assault and battery, against
Los Angeles street merchant. Sam
testified that he was the keeper of a
"sleepee store;" that while passing in
front of the defendants place of busi-
ness on Wednesday, he was set upon
by dog under the instigation of de-
fendant, and bitten; he was also
kicked The witnesses on the other
side told quite a different story, and
said that the merchant merely placed
his foot against the Chinaman and
pushed. That's what they called it. }
The defendant was acquitted.

There IL No Death.

There IL No Death.
There is no death; the stars 20 down,
To rise upon some fairer shore;
And bright in heavens jeweled crown
They shine forevermore.
There is no death! The dust we tread.
Shall change beneath the summer
showers,
To golden grain, or mellow fruit,
Or rainbow tinted flowers.
The granite rocks disorganizs
To feed the hungry moss they bear,
The forest trees drink daily life
From out the viewless air.
There is no deathl The leaves mny fall,
The flowers may fade and pass away;
Ti!ey only wait through wintry hours,
The coming OF the May.
There is no death! An angel form
Walks Ger the earth with silent
tread,
He bears our best loved things away,
And then We call them 'dead."
he leaves our hearts all desolate;
He plncks our fairest, sweetest
flowers s0s.f
Iransplanted into bliss they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
The bird-like voice whose joyous tones
Made glad these scenes Of toll and
atrife,
Sings now an everlasting song.
Amid the tree Of life.
And where he sees smile too bright,
Or heart too pure for taint and strife,
He bears it to that world of light,
To dwell in Paradise.

THE NEW BANKRUPT LAW.

The Bankruptcy law, to which important amend
ments were lately passed. Of present gives our
United States judges considerable labor IN the ad-
judication OF the different cases brought before
them. Judge Blatchford Yesterday rendered an
elaborate decision in the case OF Jacob Hymes,
already published in the HERALD. The opinion Is
an important one, In the fact that II embodies,

number OF creditors must Join In the pett-
ton, and such number must be determined
BY making computation according 70 she

nefourth OF the entire number OF creditors, and
must have pr0vable debts amounting 10 at least
one-third OF all the provable depts, with the fur
Their rule that In computing the number who must
