hat ; our idea exactly.

Every paper IN Arkansas will
publish the following and pass IT
OFF as original.-ltems are scarce
In a dingy room sat an old man
with a Roman nose and Il tall hat.
Not lar from him, q broken backed
chair supported his daughter with
rickety legs, and cracked rings.
In the same room was an old wo-
man blowing the fire with lean
cat under an old stove, being the
wife OF the old man writing with a
Roman nose. Ia 3 corner might
be seen hungry boy eating onions
with bow legs and red hair from Il
table which he swallowed without
chewing. The whole scene was
overlooked 10y an old clock orna'
mented with Pocahontas saving
John Smith, three legs covered
with cobwcbs and wound up every
eight days by Il man with brass
key. Ever and anon the door was
ratified by cold dog without any
hinges on the knob. Through the
broken window might be seen 4
woman cutting cabbage with baby
on her arm through the shattered
panes Of which daylight teebly
shone. Another window looked
out upon the street where stood a
little man wiping the sweat from
his face with Il hand organ carry
ing monkey on top, by grinding
which he had thought, in vain to
get Il few cepts from the old man
writing with tall hat, Such were
the lodgings of the misor, being the
old man writing with q Roman
nose so squalid ana miserly that It
looked as if no thrifty broom had
ever entered ther.

PRAYERS and the Mississippi
River.

\ week ago it was seriously pro
posed, We understand 10 advise the
people to meet in their churches,
and, by united prayer appeal to
Heaven to avert the threatened
overflow of the Mississippi river.
We are gratiticd to know that
our people did not engage in such
an absurdity. 1t would be interest
ing to watch the result in a contest
between prayers and the MlssIssip-
pi river. We have an idea that
there would be neither more nor
less water on account ofprayers or
the failure to pray on this specific
matter. When God Almighty ere.
atcd the Mississippi river, He start
ed it TO the wild ocean, and there
/ ii has been travelling ever since,
and thence 1t will trave! through
all time, never needing the war.
whoop Of the Indian or the prayers
of the christian. We are of those
who believe il would be sacrileg-
Ious to address the Almighty and
implGre reversal Of any natural
laws for the ben.fit Of any partisa-
lar locality, class or population in
formal trial of the efficacy Of
| prayer. 5. $. Prcntiss, in ridicul-
/ ing the !ovce system said when
God Almighty created the world,
lie turned the Mississippi river
loose and said let her rip, and she
would rip tore2er just as she pleas
( ed without regard to levces.' The
eloquent orator might have added
that her r1pPing cou.d not be bin
dered by prayers, however devcut.
The Mississippi river IS governed
'by Interchangeable natural laws, and
no amonnt OF suppllcauons Will re
verse these natural laws. No re
strains, however, are put on man :
Ingenuity to proven; the lncopvcn-
fences OF these natural laws, and we
are inclined to think that a dozen
able-bodied men, with spades in
| their hands, at work on levees, will
do more toward preventing an
overflow than oil the prayers
of unitcd christendom. In such
crisis scientific work l. worth
more than specific prayers. To
show the absurdity Of prayers on
such occasions, Se have only to re-
ter to the fact that while the people
Of the Missippl bott IN were propo-
sing to pray for cessation Of the
ram, the people OF the hills, only Il
few miles back, are ready TO offer
up Thanksgiving on account OF the
abundance of ram. The laws OF
nature are lmmutable, intleXible
and incxora bic, and they cannot be
changed by petitions to Him who,
! in HIS wisdom, Inado tuom. If they
can be capricIously changed, accor-
ding to peculiar notions or conhic-
ting interests, there would be moth
/ ing but Earring and dlscord instead
OF order aud harmony. Laws to
! be ban monIuus must be unCeaslng
and universal. II our city is ray
aged by yellow fever, and the cause
is traced to the want OF proper san
itary order, the remedy is sought
through the board Of health; II our
homes aud temples are consumed
by the flames OF a.single night, we
stand over the ashes and gravely
attribute the cause to deiectlve {
| huo, and when the mighty Mlssls.
sippi river overtlows, instead Of
proposing to stay the rising tide by
/ ridiculous prayers, we should re-
solve to build levees for the pro
lection OF the wch lands which Il
bountlful Providence has vouch'
stated unto his creatures Mem
phis Appeal.
That's our idea exactly.
