Tho Pastnr,s Wife.

Let your pastors wife alone. De
not make her the subject of criticism.
Find no fault if she does not work in
the Sunday school, or does not spend
all her afternoons in visiting the fami-
lies of the parish. Do not forget that
she has household cares that are as i'm
portant to her as yours are to you :;
that the interests of her family de
mand her presence at home, and that
if these home intesest prevent her
from doing work as a Sunday school
teacher, it is very unjust as well as
unkind TO sit in judgment against her
AS to her visiting, she is not your
pastor, but your pastors help and
companion. His interests, and the
family interests, and the wife's person
al interests are to govern the use of
time, and not the exhorbitant demands
of the parish. Her duties are respon-
sible and arduous. Visit her TO cheer
and comfort her, not to criticise her.
And when she visits you treat her with
such confidence and kindness as will
secure for yourselves a place il her
heart Of hearts, and will bring down
blessings upon your own souls.-N

As Might Have Been Expected.

At the reception of Governor Allen
at the Soldiers Orphans Home, Tues
day, whiskey and wine were spread on
the parlor table and the guests so dis
posed psrtook. Card playing WAS al
so indulged in until one o'clock in the
morning. In the midst of SO MANY
children, the example thus set cannot
but be productive of harm, and this
being the first time such things have

= We have been shown by j. NJ.
Milburn, Esq, certificate of the off :
GERS of the board of water works of
the city of Cincinnati, showing a trial
made by them of the jackson county
coal, as compared with other of the
best coal of Ohio and Pennsylvania
The result in favor Of the Jackson
county coal is simply astounding,
showing 1888 per cent. over the
Youghiogheny, which has heretofore
been considered the best coal in the
country. Fifty tons a day are used by
the water works of Cincinnati, and
with such a showing as was made in
favor Of the Jackson coal on the trail,
it will place it beyond competition in
the Cincinnati market. The officers of
the board have ordered forty car loads
more of the coal, and it is expected
that it will supercede all other coal at
the water works soon. We have a
certificate from the engineer of the
water works showing in full the result
of the recent trial, which we will pub
lish next week. [Xenia ,Torchligh,

"A meeting of the London Ladies'
League was held in our Presbyterian
church, last Monday night addressed
by Mother Stewart, Mrs. 3. j. Gus
ter, Revs. Finley and Monroe and Mr..
John T, Locke, the question being
''What shall we do to Save our Child

Such a question, as it certainly
should, elected much interest, and in
our belief was a profitable one.

be heard by every father as well as
mother in our community London

Rasping a hoof until it will spring
under your finger, is teo dangerous
plan for making things look we'll. This
rasping takes the strong surface off
the hoof, and nature trying to make
up for the evil done by injudicious
hands, forms hard glossy surface to
protect the foot. This glossy surface
takes the place of the previous tough
horn, and at the next shoeing the foot
will probably spit little at the nails,
and not uafrequently the nail punches
a piece out before it.

Dead Issues.

Democracy charges the Republican
party with trying to revive the ''dead
issues" Of the past. When these dead
issues come to US in the shape Of mur-
dered Republicans, whose only crime
was the color Of their skin, or loyal
ty to the Government that gave them
freedom and citizenship, we have a
right to deal with them, and to insist
that freedom of opinion, protection Of
life, liberty and property, the restora-
ration Of law, order, and security
throughout the land-though dead is
sues in the sight of Demo ocracy-shall
not be lost sight of as among the live
issues before the American people to-
day. When these issues are met and
settled forever; when an enlightened
public sentiment and rigid enforce
ment Of the law shall make life, prop
erty and freedom of opinion as secure
in the Southern States as they are to-
day in the North when the shadow Of
Democratic Reputation shall pass
away and all sections shall be eager
to maintain the credit Of the nation as
one of the sacred trusts of the past :;
wien danger 10 longer threatens the
peace and prosperity of the country,
and honesty and, loyalty become the
basis of party organizations, it will
then be in order for Democrats to claim
that the mission of the Republican
party is ended. Until this happy time
arrives the people must cling to the
Republican party as to tn rock OF ma
tional safety Republic.
