miles rolls the Cedar River From the
college the eye takes in a range of from
fifteen to twenty miles Of as charming
scenery as ever surrounded an American
institution. Bayard Taylor remarked.
For quiet beauty it surpasscs anything

who have attempted to establish them
selves in such business here, have felt
the need of Il sentiment in their favor as
much as temporal &c men have found

reform. The want of such sentiment and
support has caused . hasty retreat.

is its college. Bishop Haven said: From

BEWARE.

They are we'll guided whom God guides.
With great propriety, and with absolute truth,
we may all say, "by the grace Of God l am
what I am" Were it not for the power of
Gods convicting and converting grace, none
of the human family would ever forsake their
sins and turn unto the Lord. Were it not
for the sustaining grace of God, all the con-
victed and converted would return to their
evil ways as the washed SOW returns to wal
lowing in the mire. Were it not for the res
training grace of God, all men would be, so
far as they could, sinners in the sight of God.
The reason that some men are truthful and
others not-that some men are honest and
others dishonest, is that some men are res
trained by Gods grace, and others are not
When we hear of some one committing a
crime which consgns him to hopeless infamy
and shame, we should reflect that the only
reason that we are not in similar condition
is, God has restrained US. We should re-
member that it is wholly of grace that we are
out of the region of hopeless woe. We should
beware of the dangerous delusion of depend
ing on our own strength

Yesterday afternoon an old man appeared
before the Detroit and Lansing Railroad tick

"What you charge for ticket to Lam

"Two-sixty," replied the agent, wetting his

"Two dollars und zixty cints!" exclaimed

said the stranger.
"No; can't do it,
"Vell, den 1 sthays NIT Detroit till I dies, ="
growled the old man, and he went away and
walked around the depot. He expected to be
called back ashe left the window, as a man is
often called back to "take it along" when he
has been chatting with clothing dealer Such
an event did not occur, and, after few min
ntes, the old man returned and called out
"Vell, I gef you two dollars and ten cents" ,"
"No, cant do it," replied the agent.
"Vell, den / don't 60, so help me grashus !

bay bolice tax, sewer tax, und want to grow

He walked ofagain, looking back to see if
the agent would not call him, and, after a
stroll around he returned to the window, threw
down some money, and said:
"Vell, dake two dollar und twenty cints
and gif men dickette."
"My dear sir, can't you understand that we
have schedule of prices here, and that must

"Vell, den, 1 sthays NIT Detroit Won dous-

than ever. II bays bolice taxes und sewer

He walked off again, and as he saw the To-
comotive backing up to couple on the train, he
went back to the window and said:
"Gf men dicket for two dollar and thirty
cints and rides on de platform !'
"Can't do it," said the agent.
"Vell, den, py golly, spikes to you what l

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 we'll 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 unrcmittingly devoted to the management
of the ENQUIRER, fully convinces 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 ncwspa-
per is to place before the public facts they exist
unbiased by partisan feeling or sinister motives,
and the propricty of this course is fully attestcd,
not only by the success Of the ENQUIRER,
which can truthiully claim the largest circulation
of any country paper in the South, but also by
many other of the most popular and wdely-crcu-
lated papers Of the day. The course thus indica-

REPENT.

No man can enter heaven unless he repent
This is personal change. 1t admits of moth
ing that has the semblance of proxy. Parents
cannot repent for their children ; neither can
children repent for their parents. Every one
must repent for himself. 1t is to be feared
that large number of the human family have
very incorrect ideas respecting that important
subject No doubt, many think they have
repented, because they have connected them
selves with the church. Connecting ourselves
with the church is one thing, and repenting
is another. Under ordinary circumstances,
all who repent connect themselves with some
branch of the church, but many make even
creditable profession of religion who are
strangers to the saving work of repentance
There is difference between the meaning
of the words repentance and repenting, which
should be carefully noticed. Repentance is
the gift of God. Christ was exalted by the
right of God to be Prince and Saviour to
give repentance Acts, v:31. Repenting is
the work of sinner. God gives the sinner
the ability to turn from his sins. This is re-
pentance. When the sinner exercises the
power given him, that is repenting The ca.
pability to repent is included in that work Of
Gods grace which is usually called regenera-
ton. 1t is clear that none except those who
are regenerated by Gods holy spirit, can, in
the strict scriptural sense of the word, repent.
Repenting is the act of forsaking sin. We
are not, however, to conclude that it is simply
a negative state of mind. 1t is ceasing to
sin, and learning to do we'll. Repenting does
not consist in single act, but in series of
acts, continued as long as we live As long
as we live we will have some sin-some trans
gression of Gods law for which we must at
heart be sorry, and from the practice of which
we must cease.

A BAFFLED BOOK AGENT.

a very prepossessing young lady, canvass
ing for popular book, stepped into the office
of prominent real estate broker, the other
morning, and finding no one in but the broker,
and he apparently at leisure, asked him to look
at her book. The gentleman politely inform
ed her that it would only be waste Of time,
as he could not purchase it. 90! never mind
that" calculated the vivacious young woman !;
"it won't cost any thing to look at it, even if
you don't buy. should like to have you
read some portions of it and see what it is. :"
The accommodating broker took the volume,
and, glancing at the title page, commenced a
perusal of the introduction. This finished, he
began at the first chapter and read carefully
and lesiurely along.
1t was about nine o'clock when he COM
menced, and an hour passed silently away.
Then the book agent began to exhibit signs of
nervousness, which were apparently unnoted
by the broker, for he never raised his eyes
from the volume, but read steadily on. Elev-
en- o'clock came, and the lady began to walk
rather smartly about the room, glancing oc-
casionaly out of the windows. At noon the
broker was still reading, and the agent wore
a decidedly troubled countenance. A few
minutes before one o'clock the broker laid
the book down, leisurely donned his overcoat
and hat, and remarked, "That is very good
book. 1 am sorry that cannot read more of
it. but am obliged to 60 to dinner. If you
will call in this afternoon 1 will read some
more Of it," The expression on the lady,
face as she put that book into her satchel and
departed is indescribable, and it is needless
to add that she did not appear in the afternoon,
and the broker can't tell for the life of him
how the story turned out.
SEEING THE KGNG.-A gentleman at Wash
ington was requested by friend to join him on
visit to the depot to witness the arrival of
the King of Sandwiches.
"No, sir not much" growled the gentleman.
"Have you ever seen king in your trav-
els?" inquired the friend, marvelling somewhat
at his short answer.
eyes, SIR" replied the gentleman. 81 was
once guilty of seeing three kings" Then af-
ter moments pause went on to say, "And
they cost me one hundred and fifty dollars,
sir. Those were war times, however"
His friend suggested he must have been IN
bad company.
"Well, l don't know" says the gentleman
81 thought was in pretty good company at
the time. I called to see those three kings in
company with three queens, another king and
an ace spot, and have never had any desire
to see one of the royal family SINCE"
His friend saw the point, said he passed
and shuf1ed off:
WHAT He COULD Do.-A youth who at
tended revival meeting for the fun of the
thing, inquired of the minister, "Mhether he
could work a miracle or not?" The young
mans curiosity was satisfied by the minister
