Music Is the blossom of christianity. II
we can get child to sing the gospel that
child will be brought into the right way.
All over Scotland they are now singing the
gospel, and with powerful effect. The
child that sings the beautiful hymns in the
Sunday School will sing them at home, in
the house, in the garden, and by this melo-
dy the parents will be attracted, and the
families will be gathered through the sweet
influences of song. Let us put all of the
spirit of song into the Sabbath School.
DRA. A. J. BENEDICT
of Cornwall, said
He had seen children singing Sabbath
School songs which had brought irreligious
men to tears, and had exerted an influence
over them which in short time had re-
suited in then conversion.
MIR. 5. Il. NJ. cowLEs
of New llaven, said A father has heard
his daughter singing at his home "Jesus
loves me, this ! know The father
listened and thought where did my daugh'
Ter learn this song she has never been
taught to sing it at home. To-day by the
sweet influence of that music that father is
a Sabbath school man.

Its generally understood that negotia

the Kellogg party and certain gentlemen
prominent in the Conservative party. for
an adjustment of the political difficulties
IN this State. 1t is also known that these
negotiations are conducted under the an
spices OF the gentlemen of the COMPRESSION

posed ON one side or the other. what
fundamental conditions are required by
Conservatives or Radicals, what consid.

to which the public are not informed

gentlemen who represent the Conserya-

The case of the State as. Speaker
Shadd and Mrs. Crawford, as will be seen
. by referring to our Circuit Court report,
was ended Thursday, by virdict ac-
quitting the defendants. The suit, as
Mr.. Shadd claims, scas pat up for The er-
press purpose of ijuring him politically.
If this be true, the prosecutors might
have been in better business.
Shadd's lawyers were all Democrats,
and we don't think they will endorse
this statement. The prosecuting Attor-
ney was Republican. The jury that
found true bill was largely Republi-
can. The principal witnesses for the
prosecution were colored and of the
HOUSEHOLD of the parties implicated; their
testimony is on record and can be repro
duced to disprove the statement that it
was ''put up job "to injure the accused
politically.

Earache in Children.

When a child's ear becomes painful,
as it SO often does, everything should be
done to soothe it, and all strong irritating
applications should be avoided. Pieces
Oh not onion or fis should not be put in I;
but warm fannels should be applied,
with poppy fermentation, if the pain does
not soon subside. How much children
suffer from their ears-unpitied because
unknown-it would probably wiring the
hearts of those who love them, suddenly
to discover. 1t is often very hard, even
for medical men, to ascertain that the
cause of young child S distress is seated
in the ear, and frequently sudden dis
charge from it, with cessation of pain,
first reveals the secret of mysterious
attack which has really been an infam-
nation of the drum. The watchfulness
of parent, however, would probably
suffice to detect the cause of suffering, if
directed to this point, as well as to
others. If children cry habitually when
their ears are washed, that should not be
neglected; there is, most likely, some
cause for pain. Many membranes are
destroyed from discharges which take
place during "teething." Whenever
there is discharge of matter from the
ear, it would be right to pour in tepid
water night and morning, and so at least
to try and keep it clean.
