| Sundays Proceedings of the District
Convention.
! In last Palladium, the proceedings
of the convention were somewhat mix
| ed. From Mrs. Austin's report we
copied the resolutions adopted Sun
day night of last week, and our fore
man mingled synopsis Of minutes OF
Monday nights meeting with it. Be-
low we separate them-the publication
of the resolutions again, is only re-
peating that which tends to good
Ed. Pail
j. J. Mills, of Indianapolis, chair
man of the committee on resolutions
submitted the following, which we're
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, First-Thatitis the sense
of this Convention that we can reach
! the masses most effectively by carry
ing the gospel into their homes, hence
we recommend Cottage Prayer Meet
ings as one of the most efficient meas
ures to the advancement of the Mas
ter's Kingdom and the Advancement
of the Association.
Second-That the idea that Young
Mems Christian Associations can not
be profitably sustained in smaller
towns is mistake, as proven by the
experience Of Associations in such
towns represented in this Convention.
Third-That the work and influence
of Associations in smaller towns is
made most successful by the hearty
CO operation Of all the churches, espe-
cially of pastors and leading citizens.
Fourth-That to bring the better
class of irreligious young men under
the Outstanding power of our Asso-
citation, it is necessary that our rooms
be made convenient of access, com.
Portable and attractive in their ar
rangement and furniture, and that
such social influences be thrown
around them as shall counteract the
attractions of sinful places, and of
men whose business it is to lead young
men astray.
Fifth-That to this end Christian
people should contribute to the 6nan
cial as we'll as the moral support of
the Association.
Sixth-That we believe that Asso-
citation Bible Glasses may be made a
great power for good in better fitting
our members for Christian work in
bringing sinners into the glorious
light of the gospel of Christ.
Seventh-That the CO operation of
the Christian women Of our land is of
inestlmable value in the accomplish
ment of our work

THE DRUNKARD'S DREAM.


WY, Edward, you look so healthy now
And your dress so neat and clean,
have not seen you drunk about,
Pray tell me where you've been.
Your wife and children, are they well?
You once did use them strange,
Or have you kinder TO them grow?
How came this happy change?
lt was dream, q warning voice
Which Heaven sent tome,
10 snatch Inc from u drunkards curse,
Grim want and misery.
My wages were all spent IN drink,
Oh! what wretched view
/ almost broke my Mary's heart,
And starved my children, too,
My children, they have oit' swoke-
"Oh father DEAR" they SAID,
"Poor mother his been weeping so
Because we have no bread"
My Mary's form did waste away,
saw her. sunken eyes,
On straw my babes not silent were,

laughed and sung in drunken joy,
Whilst Mary's tears did stream.
And, like wretch, fell asleep
And had this warning dream.
| thonght l once more staggered home;
There seemed solemn gloom,
missed my wife, where could she be?
And strangers In the room.
| heard them say,"Poor thing, she's dead
She led a wretched lite;
Grict and want have broken her heart
Who'd be a drunkard's wite!"
My children, they stood cllnging round
Aud scarcely DIRE ~ their breath.
They k..elt and kissed her liieless form
Forever stilled in death,
"Oh.papa, come and wake her up,
The people say she's dead!
Oh! make her speak and smile once more
And we'll ne'er cry for bread.r
'She is not dCad!" | frantic cried.
And rushed 10 where she Law.
| madly kissed her once warm lips,
For ever cold AS clay.
"Oh! Mary. speak once more to me,

III never gri, We your loving heart,
Nor ever drink again.
"Oh! Mary speak! It's Edwards call,r
"Nhy. SO | know" she cried.
When awoke, my Mary dear

Whilst joyous tears Gid stream,
And ever since, I've heaven blest
For sending me that dream.

Swearing.

One Of the saddest Of sounds is that Of
human being swearing. What is the
meaning of such nonsense as well as wick.
edness? What good ever came of it
and how much it has caused the world to
suffer. If | ever wish had no ears, it
is when | hear "a boy swearing. Who
made you? Who keeps you alive
Who gave you tongue? Who clothe,
aud feeds you? Who put soul in your
body? Who sent His Son to be your
Friend aud Saviour? VINO opens heaven
to you? Whose earth do you live on
Whose sky is over your head? Whose
sun shines upon you? Whose Sabbath
do you rest on? All the answers will be,
God Is he not great and good !?
Should you not love him, and mind him
and enjoy him? Yet what does the
swearer dop He takes Gods name in
vain. He uses it upon thougtleSs and
wicked tongue. Did God foresee there
would be swearers? and did be make any
laws against swearers? Yes: "Thou
shalt not take the name of the Lord thy
God in vain; for the Lord will hold
him gulltless that taketh his name in
vain;" that is, God will hold him guilty
who takes bis name in vain. Whose fault
is it? All, my child, if the Sabbath
shool is not making you better boy or a
better girl, there is a terrible fault some
where. God gives you precious opportu
mites for learning bis will and walking ii
his way, and if you lose these opportuni'
ties you will 6nd out BY and by it is .
heavy loss.

LOTS WIFE.
An Old Mans Renaissance

Not long since l was visiting at a
neighbOrs, and as we we're seating our,
selves at the dinner table, | asked the
hostess where the other lady was. "What
do you mean," Says she, There is no one
else here" No" said l, "but / miss
her, "miss wbo," she enquired, looking
very much surprised "Why Lots
wife," said |. She sprang to her feet
With little more red in her face than
usual. then seeing the Joke, she burst into
a hearty laugh, putting the salt on the
table.
Now | would say TO all good cooks
remember Lots wife and do not fail to
give her a conspicuous place at your dim
ner tables, for she is a very necessary
accompaniment to the good cheer found
there upon, ard she makes dead hog
very paletable to the taste, and the her,
rings she gives delicious and appetizing
flavor. IT'S true she must have her fin,
ger in every chicken pie, and not roast
can be had, but she must have the first
taste of it, she is the only lady that a
jealous wife will trust at all times with
her husband you say she is old, but
assure you she is fresh and fair despite
her age. She is also said to be good
surgeon. and when either men or ANIMALS
are bleeding ever SO copiously from fresh
cuts or wounds, she will effect stoppage
of the hemorago in f Q minutes, and also
assist Nature in her curative process. -
Her presence at the meals Of favorite
COW, will increase the flow of milk, and
put more flesh upon her bones. She will
kill more bugs than so chickens. Even
cutters and mechanics often get her as.
sistance and 1t is an indisputed fact that
no Yankee can make a good 6le either
by hand Or machinery, without her
help.
Then too, she is the most quiet and
well>behaved lady l know of. She sits
at every table, but never finds fault with
the cookery, asks impuden, questions, OF
tells tales o. what is said tbereat. And il
guest happens to go the whole hog, aud
get too much grease upon his stomach, a
cup of warm water and the assistance OF
Lots wife will relieve him at once.
Aud now search the world over and
you will not find lady in more univer-
sal demand, or one who has purer,
whittier or more spotless reputation than
this same Lots wife.

tate the advancement of ciyiliza tion.-
They are the men, too, who are the most
active in the promotion of Gods cause on
the earth. In nature there is nothing
idle, all is ceaseless activity: From the
honey bee that robs nature of her floral
sweets, and never returns unladen to its
waxen city, to the pondrous elephant in
his Eastern wilds, industry prevails. In
the inanimate universe, from slow chemi-
cal operations, to the revolution of planets
round their central surs, the principle Of
action and motion is the inviolable law.
Man alone has ignored the idea of labor.
He is Of all Gods works, the noblest, the
most privileged, and the least worthy.
He has not only condemned his makers
works, but he has denied his makers ex.
istence. Oh. wretched being little do
you merit the goodness and mercy of heav.
en-. Your soul is stamped with base in.
gratituded, the darkest crime that. ever
disgraced humanity. How can you look
into the face of nature, without having
depicted on your stoney cOuntenance ex-
pressions of utermost shame and confu-
SION? Labor and progress go hand IN
hand along the highway of the world,
performing their colossal tasks and
achieving herculeon conquests, man has
labored, and time attes.s how nobly he
has triumphed. If this spirit were uni
versal among men, how soon would our
jails, penitentiaries, lazaretos be emptied
of their inmates, crime diminished, and
ignorance driven from the land. Then
might We have men, who Cincinnatus
like, could leave the plough handle or
workshop, and preside with dignity over
a nations veal. Society would flourish
like green bay>tree, and all would con-
cede tba. there is dignity in honest labor.
Labor is honor, Gods spirit hath spo-
ken.
This is the song that his universe sings
Through the vast hills of creation unbro
ken,
Loudly and clearly, the glad echo
rings.
Then from the hills and the green valley
stealing,
Seeking the light of the bright sky
above.
Rises the song to the blue heavens pea
ling.
Labor is honor, and labor is love.'

The Dignity of Labor.

o. all the DEGREES emanating from Lu>
man society, that which establishes an
iDexpreSsible antagonism between honest
labor ard responsibility is most unwisa
and unjust. Such principle is subver-
sive in its tendency of the entire social
fabric, and most runicus in its practical
operation. "In the sweet of thy face
shalt thou eat bread" declared the AL
mighty, and from this declaration there IS
no appeal. In his wisdom God foresaw
the necessity Of labor to the fallen con-
dition Of humanity, and provided this
universal law to meet tie world imper>
ious demand. Consequently, labor con-
stitutes the granite ba sis, on which is
erected the whole superstructure of society

BRIDGE IN DANGER.
Mail Expected from Bristol To-Day.


From the Knoxville Chronicle Saturday Feb 27.
The county bridge was crowded at an
earley hour yesterday with citizens, TO
behold the work of the raging tide, aud
the sight almost beggfrs description.
The river had continued to rise the eutire
night, and by morning it only lacked some
inches over two feet from being as high
as in 1867. The houses at the river
bank, just above the county bridge were
almost entirely covered with water, and
one of them was floating around, being,
however, held to the place by ropes.
Workmen were still busy at
ATKINS LUMBER YARD
Trying to save as much as possible,
though quite a quantity was carried along
with the tide notwithstanding their efforts.
Mr. Atkin himself was present working
as though many years of u Busy life had
not sivered his hair, and at all times he
could be seen in the most dangerous
places. Sometime before Doon the tide
proved too much fer
ATKINS STORE HOUSE,
At the corner Of Crozier and Front streets,
and it was soon seen moving down the
river, followed by at Last $4,000 feet Of
fine lumber, which had been brought
around in front Of the builiing for protec
ton. Several men followed it in yawls
and made strenuous effort to land it..
but their work was fruitless, and on it
sped, passing the county bridge without
any trouble Reaching the Knoxville
and Charleston railroad bridge, it passed
under, Just to the right of the highest
span. when the brick Aue was taken of by
the bridge. and the building passed Oh
down the stream.
IN THE RIVER.
During the morning as before stated
crowds Of citizens gathered at the river
and often il seemed their curiosity would d
&c: the better of their judgment, aud
they would risk their lives in order to set
everything. Quite a crowd gathered on
the porch, or rather loose platform Of the
Riverside Church. looking out on the
river, when suddenly splash was heard
and one man fJuAd himself decided,
