for years now wept like children. One
young man, who had resisted with
scorn the pleadings of a loving mother
aud the eutreaties of friends, to strive
to lead Il better life, tn desist from a
course that was wasting his fortune
and running his health, now approach
ed the little child, and taking both her
little hands in his while tears streamed
down his pale cheeks, exclaimed with
emotion:
God bless you, my little angel! you
have saved me from ruin and disgrace,
from poverty and a drunkard's grave.
If there were ever angels on earth you
are one God bless you God bless
you and putting bill in the hand of
the mother, said, Please accept this
trifie as a token of my regard aud es-
TEEN, for your little girl has done me a
kindness no wealth can ever repair.
And remember when you arein want,
you will find me a true friend" at the
same time giving her his name and
address.
Taking her child by the hand she
turned to go, but pausing at the door,
said:
"God bless you gentlemen! Ac-
cept the heartfelt thanks of n poor
| friendless woman, for the kindness
and courtesy you have shown her."
Before any one could reply she was
| gone.
\ silence of several minutes en-
sued, which was at last broken by the
/ proprietor, who exclaimed
/ Gentlemen, that lady is right, and
l have sold my last glass of whisky ;
| If any of you want more, you will
/ have to go elsewhere"

1t was the evening train from Moscow 10
Warsaw. My friend and myself con-
graduated ourselves that We were TO have
exclusive use of the car for the night, and
could enjoy our cigars uninterruptea.
Alas the guard had not been seen,
and the result of this lack OF forethought
was that ere the train started TWO ladies
were TO be put in with us.
THAT settles the cigar question said |
One was young-say %; the other was
old-say GO; but both were ladies, as shown
by their dress, manners and faces, and still
further by the fact that they wero in the
hrst-class carriage.

peared the one single method Of softening
the asperities of a night ride where there
were no sleepers." So my friend and |

The members of Holston Lodge, No.
SO, l. o. Good Templars, who were
present at their regular session Monday
evening, had a most enjoyable time,
it being the anniversary of the insti-
tuition of the Lodge. There was a
large attendance, every seat in the spa
cious Hall being occupied. After the
initiatory ceremony, (Which was con-
ferred on some applicants), the neces-
sary business of the Lodge was tram
sacted, and under the "Good of the
Order" communication was read
from Bro. l.. G.. Shepard, who was
unavoidably absent, briefly tracing the
history of the Lodge from the date of
its organization to the present time,
showing the struggles of the few noble
hearts during the dark hours of the
Order in our midst.
On call, Bros. Lee and +. w. Adj
kins, two of the original charter mem
bers of the Lodge, made pertinent re-
marks relative to its rapid growth.
Bro. Morgan, d. G.. G. r., gave brief
resume of the work accomplished here
and throughout East Tennessee, also
the hopes and plans for its further
prosecution. Bro. Moses White being
called on, made a most eloquent speech
of ten minutes, replere with words
breathing a steadfast devotion to the
cause of temperance, and earnestly en-
couraging his co-laborers to continue
in their great work.
| Remarks were also made 10y Broth
er Hodge, beautifully complimentary
to the lady members Of the Order.
Rev. Brother Emory encouraged the
/ Lodge with statement of his obser-
vations relative to the good accom-
piished by the Order IN other places
Rev. Brother Russell in a few string
remarks admonished the members tC
continue the fight until the downfall
of King Alcohol was proclaimed to an
emancipated world.
w. G. Templar Ramsey addressed &
few remarks to the Lodge, also Lodg,
Deputy, Rogan, and Bro. Cooley

beers dispensing, feeling it was good t

From the Franklin Ky PARROT

Some years ago, while Mr.. Hamilton
was fishing near the lower rapids Of the
Mississippi, just above the Keokuk, he
observed below him man bailinga canoe,
preparatory to taking himself, wife. and
baby across the river. At the same time
Mr.. II. saw that hi, Newfoundland dog
was watching the proceeding Of the party.
Seeming to comprehend their intention, the
dog uttered a peculiar howl and passing
rapidly up the river for some distance,
plunged into the water and swan
diagoually down and landed on Il large
rock standing ont Of the water about MIDI
way the stream. After shaking the water
from his shaggy coat. he again watched
the party, who. in the meantime, had EN-
barked in the canoe. just a. the little
boat passed the rock. it was caught in the
rapidly descending current and instantly
capsized. The woman. in falling into the
water. loOscd her hold on the child, which
fiOatcd down the stream. The man caught
his wife and waded with her 10 the rock
The instant the child fell into the water
the dog leaped in. and in short time wa
seen in the still water below swimming
with the child in his mouth, which he car
ricd in safety to the shore.

4 political sermon i'm these days is some
thing OF a novelty in Boston-at least, in
the pulpits of our more eminent and re-
spected preachers. James Freeman
Clarke preached one last Sunday, sug-
gested by the nearness of the birthday Of
Washington. He took for his text 1.-The
memory Of the Just is blessed He said
in tie beginning: The four greatest
men this country has produced are,
think. Washington, Franklin, Jefferson,
and Abraham Lincoln. OF these, Jetfer-
son was the greatest genius, Franklin the
greatest intellect, Lincoln the most mark
ed product of American institutions, and
Washington the greatest character And
he closed with the following impressive
paragraph:
In the great storm which drove the YES
sci containing the Apostle Paul on the
shore of Malta, we are told that the ma
riners least four anchors out OF the
stern. and wished for day" our four
anchors, holding us fast from behind, are
the examples and teachings of Washing
ton, Franklin, jefferson, and Abraham
Lincoln. The first represents virtue in
politics; the second, good sense in poll
tics the third, democracy i'm politics
the fourth. humanity in politics. Let us
/ reverence these great examples, holding
Us firm to a noble past, and 50 saving us
/ for a better future. With four such Illus
trious lives as these to reverence, TO study
and 10 follow, we may feel that in the
most stormy hours, and the darkest nights
we may hold safe BY these anchors, land
