MethOdists and the WOlr-bOunty.

A Methodist minister is responsible
for the following story, which we find
in the Richmond Christian Advocate !:
Judge Moore, of Kentucky, was
present in this legislature when the
member from Big Sandy-an unletter-
ed delegate-made speech on the re-
latiOns of rations to religion. The
question was, whether the premium
paid for killing wolves and foxes
should be abolished? The member
nodded to the chair aud said Mr..
Speaker, is this House going toutake
away the consolation of religion from
Big Sandy? Sir, no Episcopal parson
breaches there, for nobody has read
enough to scotch for him. The Pres
byterians, the properest preachers in
the world won't come, because we can't
always hold in and behave ourselves.
The Bapists have tried ali the streams
about there with a pole, and none of
the creeks are deep enough, and they
are skittish about taking 'em into Big
Sandy for that amt place to tussle
in If you can swim. They we're afraid
to undertake Big Sandy, so they quit.
The Methedists are cur only chance.
If Kentucky don't keep on paying
people for killing wild varmiDts, the
foxes and wolves will catch all the
chickens, and then you may say fare

didn't take away the consultations of
religion from Big Sandy, but paid for

THE proprietor of the Jackson
Courier Herald says in future his pa
per will be called and known as the
Jackson Sun, and uses the following
sensible language in reference to pat
ent outsides :"
1--WE will in the future print our
paper entirely at home. Before We
assumed control of the Courier-Her-
aid it had been published under the
cooperative plan, and we have contln-
ued it to the present time. The name
has been published in the list of CO.
operative papers. and this is sufficient
reason for changing the name. The
cooperative agencies have so much
reduced the usual rates of advertising
as to utterly demoralize the business
abroad, and almost entirely exclude
the patent outside" papers from the
benefits of foreign advertising. Ad-
vertisers are furnished with the lists
of the cooperative papers throughout
the country, when advertising is
solicited for them, the solicitor
is politely informed that they can
advertise on the outside of his paper
far one-fourth or one-tenth the usual
rate. The reading matter furnished
on the cooperative plan is excellent,
but the man who publishes paper
with patent outside" can never be
anything more than laborer for a
small share OF the profits with all the
responsibility to carry. Judging from
our own experience, there are few
publishers who use the cooperative or
patent sheet from choice, and we sin
cerely hope that the present plan of
running publishers through their own
columns will be displaced by some
method which will give them a voice
in the control of the advertising on
both sides of their papers. 1t Is use
less for publisher to think about in
dependence of success in journalism
while rich monopoly inserts adver-
tising on one side of his paper at starv-
ing rates, aud publishes them at his
expense"

NoTE.-The king is intended to rep
resent God. The daughters, true mem
bers ofas many christian denomina-
tions. The gardens are the bounds
beyond which christians should not
go. The groves and plaius beyond are
the outside world, with its sins and
dangers. The Instructions given are
the Bible. The fruits and flowers are
the good deeds of christians, or the
treasures they lay up for themselves
in Heaven. And the crown and the
valuable presents are their reward
when they reach that happy home.
As none are perfect, the king did not
find in single one of the baskets pre-
cisely what he had directed them to
gather.

that pure happiness must ever be the
portion of the dutiful and faithful

Kind reader, the foregoing humble
tale is intended to convey with it a
moral. You must acknowledge that
the noble king acted Justly and gener-
ously with his beloved and beautiful
daughters, and unless you have a heart
of stone you must know that no noble
and generous father will condemn to
endless punishment and woe the be-
loved children of his bosom who have
without hypocrisy or deceit, tried to
obey his will and whose little errors,
though many, have been of the head
and not of the heart.
Then when you know this, why will
you continue to insist that man is more
magnanimous than God? Why will
you continue to predict for your broth
er and sister endless woe in the great
hereafter, because they do not construe
the meaning of the instructions given
them as you do? Did it never occur
to your mind that possibly they might
be right and you wrong? Why will
you continue to profess to be judge
of what is right and what is wrong,
when you know that you have judge
who claims that entire privilege, and
one who knows the law better than
you?
Would it not be best for you to act
the part of the generous sisters and
concede to your brother the same
privilege of construction, in regard to
the meaning of the holy word of God
as you expect for yourself, especially
when you know that brother to be, as
well educated and as intelligent and
with as much opportunity for learning
and studying it as you have.
In conclusion, gentle reader, permit
me to ask you one more question, which /
you may answer to yourself in silence
and l will leave you to your own
Would it not be best, when you see
an earnest and true hearted brother or
sister of a different denomination from
yourself striving to gather in what they
sincerely believe to be the most ac-
,eptable fruits and flowers, for you to
aid and encourage them in every way
that you can, in kind and gentle man
1er, ever hoping that others, as well as |
yours will be acceptable to the Faith
,r? A Father whose mercy and love
S extensive enough to embrace the
entire earth, apd every living thing
.hereeu, and then brightly illuminate
With its pure and radiant light every |
liver, sea or lake, every hill and every
lale. every city and every plain, of
yreat and boundless Heaven.
In doing so, you will certainly not
letract from, but may add much to
he beauty and flavor of your own.

Judge Hall,

MEMORIAL DIsooURsE BY REV. L MARKS
At Hanover church, yesterday morning, the
services were of memorial character and de-
voted to a review of the life of the late Judge
Hail. The discourse WAS preached by Rev. L.
Marks pastor Of the church, who in general
manner spoke Of the public life of the deceased,
noting each prominent act in the long career of
usefulness spent among this people. Begin
ming with his settlement at Dover, he traced the
successive steps in the rise of Judge Hall in the
esteem of his fellow men, and passed from these
to a contemplation of his life protesting
Christian.
At the age of AZ, Judge Hall connected him.
self with the Church, and at once became an
ardent, Jealous laborer in the vineyard of his
Master. Among the prominent acts of this
portion Of his life, Mr.. Marks spoke
Of a pamphlet addressed by Judge Hall to the
bar of the United States, wherein he exhorted
the members to a deeper interest in personal
salvation, applying his own experiences to their
needs. Prior to this time the Judge said, in
general in his pamphlet, that he had devoted
too much to the study of his profession aud
too little to the salvation of his own soul.
He also counseled the abandonment altogether
of the study of law cases oil the Sabbath. AS
church member, Mr.. Marks proclaimed Judge
Hall prompt, faithful, Jealous in good works, and
finally commended his example to the young
especially.
The church was we'll filled, there being large
turnout from other congregations.

fence, in the bottom OF which he placed boxes
OF strong lime-water, and another has machine
which will sweep them up and crush them at
the rate Of ten bushels per acre. private letter
from lady on the border Of Kansas, to the
COMMERCIAL throws some light on the subject
OF the insect pests. She speaks OF damage
done by the grasshoppers, and says: "This
winter we were overrun with the poor grasshop-
per folks from down in Kansas, starved out
and hunting work. We just had to
give, and give, and give. Had one man and
his wife and child with us week, and folks

have starved to death, here, during the winter.
Last Fall, the locusts came, in this section just
in time to eat our late cabbage, but the mean
things laid their eggs, and now they are hatch
ing out by the million. Every green place is
black with them. They have eaten up our oats,
every shoot, and spinach, onions, radishes, to.

Of using disrespectful language to the Court on
Friday, and WAS 10 have been arraigned for it this
morning, but he insists that the supposed OBJ
jectonable language was directed at Mr.. Mann,
and not at the Judge. In this statement the
members Of the bar generally concur, and they
express their sympathy with Mr.. Heverin, as
against Judge Briggs, whose action throughout
the trial has been severely criticised
The Judge declines to state in advance of the
trial Of the case the particular remark to which
he takes offense. Several members of the bar,
among them Benjamin Harris Brewster Lewis

to defend Mr.. Heverin, and Mr.. Cassidy has
been retained as principal counsel. The pun
