RAT1oNs AND REL1G1oN.-The Rev. ]. j..
Lafferty, in late number of his paper-the
Richmond Christian Advocate-wrlting on
"the relations of rations to religion" gets off
this one:
Judge Moore, of Kentucky, when Confed-
crate congressman, told the writer of a rare
example of the power of the commissary on
christianity. The judge was present in the
legislature when the member from Big Sandy,
an unlettered delegate, made speech on the
relation of rations to religion. The question
was whether the premium paid for killing
wolves and foxes should be abolished? The
member nodded to the chair, and said: "Mr.
Speaker, is this house going to take away the
consultations of religion from Big Sandy? Sir,
no Episcopal parson breaches there, tor no.
body has read enough to scotch for him.
The Presbyterians, the properest preachers
in the world, won't come, because we can't
always hold in and behave ourselves. The
Baptists have tried all the streams there
with pole and none of the creeks are big
enough, and they are skittish about taken 'em
into Big Sandy, for that amt a place to tus.
sci in if you can't swim. They were afraid
to undertake Big Sandy, so they quit: The
Methodists are our only chance. Now, If
Kentucky don't keep on paying people, for
killing wild varmints, the foxes and wolves
will catch all the chickens, and then you may
say farewell to the circuit riders" The house
didn't take away the "consolations Of reli-
gion" from Big Sandy, but paid tor killing
the "varmints."

ATTRACTIVE ORIGINAL STORIES.
PREMIUMS FOR CLUBS.

WITH the new year, the ENQUIRER will
w enter upon its TWENTY FIRST VOL
UME and in making our regular annual an
nouncement, we can promise greater attractions,
owing to increased facilities in every department,
than we have heretofore been enabled to present.
AS a non-partsan independent family news
paper, the future editorial conduct of the EN-
QUIRER can be as well Judged by the past, as by
any promise which we might now feel disposed
to make. An experience of thirty-four years in
the newspaper business, seventeen of which have
been unremittingly devoted to the management
of the ENQUIRER, fully convnces the proprie-
tor that the plan he adopted on assuming control
of the paper is the correct mode of journalism in
the present day. The true mission of a newspa-
per is to place before the public facts they exist,
unbiased by partisan feeling or sinister motives,
and the pr0priety of this course is fully attesed,
not only by the success Of the ENQUIRER,
which can truthfully claim the largest circulation
of any country paper in the South, but also by
many other of the mostpopular and wldely-circu-
lated papers of the day. The course thus indica-
ted we shall continue to pursue, aiming to pub
lish LITERARY AND FAMILY NEWSPA-
PER- which shall be welcome visitor to the
Home Circle, and acceptable alike to all classes
of readers. Hence, the news department of the
ENQUIRER, whether of matters at home or
abroad-political or otherwise-will be guarded
with the utmost care, and only facts as they may
seem to exist, will be presented, free from per-
l.,
