From q pyramid in the deservs sand
A mummy was brought to Denmark's land
The hieroglyphic inscriptions told
That the body embalmed was three thousand
years old.
It was the corpse Of mighty queen,
Examining 1t, they found between
Her closed fingers q corn of wheat:
So well preserved was this little seed
That, being sown, it put forth its bladc
Its delicate stem, Of light green shade
The ear got filed with ripening corn.
Full grown through sunshine and i1ght Oh INC
morn.
The wonderful power in corn 80 small
1t is lesson to each and all.
Three thousand years did not quench its germ,
1t teaches our faith to be strong and him.
When such O life is laid in corn,
When out Of that husk new plant could be
born,
To ripen In sunshine and dew from the sky.
Then human soul, thou spark from on hlgn,
Thou art immortal as thy great sire
Whose praise is sung by the angel choirl
The musk, the body is buried deep,
And friends will go TO the tomb to weep,
But thou shalt move on, on wings SO free
For thine is the life OF eternity.
The wonderful power of so small seed
The miracle seen in that corn OF wheat,
It puzzled the mind; but still 1T is done

TIE St. Louis Globe is throwing ink
eight and lett at the follies of the age.
Its latest is a discourse on "the cost Of
church going," which makes it one Of
the luxuries OF the rich. 1t figures up
this cost, in pew rent alone, almost
equal to the rental Of d habitation. The
Globe very innocently observes that
''salvation ought to be cheaper than
that" Still, it protests against being
considered an advocate of the primitiv e
simplicity Of Apostolic times, or as ap.
plying to the social system Of to-day the
impossible conditions of society which
has passed away. Churches are
now confined to s'people OF our
set," and every "sew must either
have its own church or 60 without re.
ligious culture, unless they obtain it at
home and in their daily walk and con.
versation. 1t all looks ugly to us. 1t
is exclusive and aristocratio. 1t separ-
ates from. the mass of the people those
who ehould instruct, lead and elevate
them. No wonder our "truly good men'
zre politically enslaved to the hoodlums
snd bummers of politics. They deserve
It. II they are SO exclusive in the

NO respect to persons, what are they in

TOMORROW is the Centennial Of the
Declaration of Independence by the col
any of North Carolina at Mecklenburg.
1t was done deliberately and thoroughly
ON the goth Of May, 1775. There is a
question as to the precise date-some
uontendIng for the 31st of May; but as
there are just eleven days Of difference,
the supposition is that the confusion
that prevailed for some time after the
change from Old Style to New Style &C.
eounts for it. At all events, the cele.
bration is to take place at Mecklenburg
on the Goth, and preparations have been
made for grand time.
