JOHN RANDoLPHs RELIGIOUS SERVICES
Two Novel Scenes in Church.

Mr.. Randolph was great bible reader and
was deeply concerned with religious subjects.
lie employed an excellent and eloquent man,
Mr.. Abner ClOptOn, to preach every Sunday
to his negroes in the large chapel he had
erected on his plantation. When at home he
invariably attended these services. On many
occasions while kneellng beside the preacher,
who was prone to be carried away by the
fervor of prayer, Randolph would slap HIM
on the back and call out loudly, "Clopton,
that won't do; that's not sound doctrine.
Clopton, take that back" and if Clopton re-
monstrated, Randolph, though kneellng him
self on his knees, was ready at once for an ar
gnment TO maintain his point. No one but
Mr.. ClOpon, who knew the eccentricity and
honest motives Of the man, could have borne
with these lrreverent interruptions while in
the midst Of prayer: but Mr. CloptOn, when
he found Randolph determined to argue the
point, either gracefully yielded or proposed
to note the point and argue it at the dwelling
house. TO visitors at the chapel, and they
were many, these scenes were exceedingly
curious and sometimes absurdly ludicrous.
Bat that was Mr.. Randolph's way,
| 1t is said that on one cold Sunday, in this
chapel on Mr.. Randolphs plantation, while
giving out the hymn in the good old-tashion
ed way, two lines at time, and 1t was being
Justify sung by the negroes, Mr.. Clopton, the
preacher, observed negro man put his foot
upon which was new brogan, on the hot
stove Turning towards him, he said in his
measured voice, You rascal you, you'll burn
your shoe" as this was rhyme of the exact
metre of the hymn, the negroes all sung in
their loudest tones Smiling at the error, the
preacher attempted mildly TO explain by say
ing: My colored friends, indeed you are
wrong; | didn't intend that for the song;"
but there it was again, another rhyme in good
measure, so the negroes sung that too with
plous fervor. Turning to his congregation,
the preacher said somewhat sharply, 81 hope
you will not sing again, until | have had
time TO explain" but this only aroused the
negroes, who sang the last word with increas-
ed vigor. Mr. Clopton, feeling that his
tongue seemed to be tuned to rhyme, aban-
doned all efforts at explanation, and went on
with his services -brom the C0.0pcrdtIo@

The poor old man was dead. With the
cOnsummation of his hearts wish, his quiet
unpretendng, unoffendng life had passed
out into the new existence.
There were large growis in the music-lOv-
ing world, but nothing ever came of them,
for Richard Clavering removed their singing

flight, and now she sings only to him and to
her brood of young Claverings.

LOSS AND GAIN.
81 ADELAIDE 4. PROCTOR.

Thou hast done well to knecl and say:
since ne who gave can take away
And bid me suffer- obey.
And also well to tell thy heart
mat good lies in the bittcrcs part,
ana thou wilt profit by her smart.
But bitter hours come to ali:
hen even truths like these will pail,
olck hearts for humble comfort call.
Then | would have thee strive to see
That good ana evil come 10 thee
AS one of great family.
And as material life is planned,
mat even the loneliest one must stand,
Dependent on his brothers hand.
So links more subtle and more fine
BIND every other soul to thine
In one great brotherhood divine.
Nor with thy share Of work be veXed;
Though incomplete and cen perpleXed,
1t fits exactly to the next.
What seems so dark TO thy dim sight
May be q shadow, seen Alright,
Making some brightness doubly bright.
The flash that struck thy tree-no mora
10 shelter thre-lets Heavens blue floor
Shine where it never shone before.
Thy life, that has been dropped aside
into Times stream, may stir the tide
In rippled circles spreading wide.
Ihy cry wrung from thy spirits pain,
May echo on some far of plain
And guide wandcrcr home again.
Fail-yet rejoice. Because no less
The failure that makes thy distress
May teach another full success.
1t may be that in some great need
Thy llfes poor fragments are decreed
To help build Up lofty deed,
Thy heart might throb in vast content,
Thus knowing that 1t was but meant
AS chord TO one great instrument.
That even the discord in thy soul
May make COmpleter music roll
From out the great harmonious whole.
1t may be, that when all is light,
Deep set within that deep delight
viii be to know 1chy all was right;
To hear LIES perfect music rise,
And while it floods the happy skies,
Thy feeble voice to recognize.
Then strive more gladly to fulfll
Thy little part This darkness still
Is light to every loving will.
And trust-as if already plain
How just thy share OF loss and pain
Is for another fuller gain.
