Springs are little things, but they
are sometimes sources of large
streams; helm is u LIT e thing, but
1t governs the course of large ship;
"a word, look, Il frown, are all little
things, but powerful for good or evil.
Think of this, and mind the little
things; keep your word sacredly; keep
it to the children; they will mark it
sooner than any one else, aud the
effect may be as lasting as life

Vice President Green, of the West
ern Union Telegraph Company said
to a reporter this afternoon, relative
to the rumored consolidation of the
Western Union with the Atlantic and
Pacific, that he was not authorized to
say anything definite rs to consoli-

say whether the contract was accepta-

o, how many part with Christ at a

to buy 1t at so dear rate.

Many think by cruelty to fulfill the

"No," said Mr.. Fuller, ~ can take

The man was stung, but recovered

DIES IRaE.
FROM THE LATIN.

Day of wrath, that day of burning,
All shall melt, to ashes turning,
All foretold by seer discerning.
oh, what fear 1t will engender
When the Judge shall come in splendor,
Strict to mark and just to render
umpet->cattered sound OF wounder,
Rendine Sc ,ulchreI asunder,
Shall resls,less summOr thunder
ALI aghast then Death shall shiver,
And great Natures frame shaiI quiver
When the great graves their dead del yer.
Righteous Judge of retribution,
Grant me perfect absolution
Ere thai day of execution!
Culprit like, l-heart all broken,
On my cheek suame's crimson token
Plead the pardoning word be spoken.
When the aecu sed away are driven,
TO eternal burnings given,
Call ME with the blest to Heaven!
| beseech thee, prostrate lying,
Heart as ashes, c'ntrite, signing,
Care for me when am dying.
On that awful day of wailing
When man rising, stands before Thee,
Spare the culprit, God of glory!

The fathers of the Christian Church
taught that every human being, from
the hour of his birth to that of his
death, is accompanied by an angel
appointed to watch over him. The
Mohammedans give to each of us
good and an evil angel; but the early
Christians supposed us to be attended
each by good angel only, who un-
dertake that office, not merely from
duty to God, and out Of obedience and
great humility, but as Inspired by
exceeding charity and love towards
his human charge. 1t would require
the tongues of angels themselves to
recite all that We owe 10 these benign
and vigilant guarhians.........C Constant
to us in death, they contend against
the powers of darkness the eman-
cipated spirit.-lfrs. czon.

voting against the resolution to postpone
His positions were we'll taken, and were
strong, because they were filled with that
sound common sense which perVades the
mass Of the people,
The larger part Of the afternoon was
taken up in u sound argument by Mr.,
BlakemOre, Of PendletOn county, in
which he took the gentleman from Wet
eel to task for his charges against the
Investigating Committee. Even II we
had time and space, we could not make
an extended notice Of his reply to that
gentleman for fear there may be an
agent Of the philanthropist Bergh about
somewhere. As for the views Of the
gentleman from Wetzel on political NOR
ality, he utterly rcpudiated and secuted
them as base beyond expression.
After Mr., Blakemore concluded his
argument, Messrs, Williams, West, Corn
we'll and Hall made a few remarks. As
Dr., Hall said, "the lesser lights are shin
ing now just before the great blaze breaks
forth upon the closing scene in the
House."
We wait in silence.

this the estimate Is made that II Is more
profitable for the farmer TO sell unshelled

wheat at 81 25 in December Is equal 10
