creation they were placed in Eden's
gladstone bowers, ssNo wave of trou-
bic shall roll across their peaceful
breasts" Did the cares of life hard
press and cause them to drag out in
sorrow their pilgrimage on earth,
there Christ shall ease of every care,
and with tender hand will wipe
away their tears. In his bosom
shall they repose, and in the sun
light of his eountenance be free
from every harm. Even the pun
ishment of wicked friends will in
their view but magnify the justice
of Him who sitteth on the throne,
and cause them to rejoice the more
that by grace divine they have es-
capped the tortures of the internal
world. As the walls of damned
spirits ascend, with the smoke of
their torment, they viii send no
pang OF sorrow to their hearts, but,
with fresh-toned Tyres, they win
sound anew the praise of him who
died that even those, now stepped in
woe, might gain the glories of the
heavenly city.
Oh! is there a land of such pure
delight. haven of eternal repose,
"a house not made with hands, eter-
nal in the heavens?' Yes; and,
Christian, that land is yours, yours
eternally. If you hold out faithful
there are in store for you joys
which human thought has never
conceived, and glories which human
eye has never looked upon. Then
why despond "when cares like q
wild deluge come, and storms OF
sorrow fallY' Can you not endure
sorrow for awhile, in the glorious
thought that amid the gloIies Of that
better land no sorrow is ever known
Rather in the place of means and
sighs let peans of praise ascend to
heaven that you have In prospect
such a home and such a rest from
all your tolls. Soon the messenger
will come TO bid you to the Father
and then cares shall roll from your
burdened soul. and tears fall nc

The spirit of venality you mention
is the most deadly and alarming en-
emy America has to oppose. 1t is
as rapacious and insatiate as the
grave. This predominant avarice
will ruin America if she is ever
ruined. If God Almighty does not
interfere by his grace to control this
universal idolatry to the mammon OF
unrighteousness, we shall be given
up to the chastisement of his judge.

ASrWe SAID on q former occasion,
the session of the Legislature will
be the eliminating point in the
credit of the State. This convic-
ton should take fast hold on the
minds of the people and impress
them with the absolute necessity
for electing members, honest and
able enough to meet the issue, and
fearless enough to take the respon-
sibility likely to be incurred by q
faithful discharge of their duty. But
it may be asked, where are such men
TO be found, and how elected?
They are TO be found both in town
and county, and as the time has
come when every sensible man, anx-
ious to maintain the credit of the
State and promote its honor and
prosperity, should rise above pre-
judice, it is contemplate to be con-
trolled by mere locality, in the
choice of competent representatives.
Such can be elected by discarding
personal and local prejudices, and
by union of factions, kept apart
more by sheer love of opposition
than by any difference of opinion
upon subjects material to the gen
eral welfare of the State. These
differences, usually trivial and al.
ways mischievous, can easily be har-
monized by sober reflection and an
honest desire to cultivate unity as
the one great essential to success.
If any differences have arisen out
of past issues that are settled, can
there be any good results from keep
ing alive those differences when the
causes have ceased to operated
The unity among the people may
be measured by the harmony in the
legislature. and the intelligence n
the people may be accurately deter
mined by the competency of theil
representatives. No two men think
alike on all subjects, and the test o
their patriotism is the sacrifice o
minor opinions each is willing tt
make to secure the success of i'm
portant measures.
The burden resting upon the tax
payers ought, of itself, to induce
concert of action in the selection
of suitable representatives, especial
ly when they remember that, willis
they are wrangling about what par
of the county he is TO be choseI
from, the non-tax paying, floating
population, led by some selfish dem
agogue, elect some incompeten
man and they who are most to blamr
are the first to rail out against tn,

hinterest of the people. Even thu

--latest From Crooks Camp.
FORT LARAMIE, July 81
. A courier who left Goose Greek ON
the evening of the 18th, arrived at Fet-
terman tonight. His delay was caused
by his having met at Powder river, a
body of two hundred Indians, from
whom he escaped by hiding himself in
the timber for t~wenty-four hours. One
Indian followed his trail nine miles.
He says they were evidently waiting
for him, and fears that the couriers
sent from Fetterman on the 10th inst.
with dispatches for Crook have been
intercepted, as he saw their trail this
side of the river, but not beyond. His
delay ran him out of rations, compel
ling him to fast two days. He left all
quiet in camp. The hostile Sioux are
believed to be north of Goose Creek
forty miles and not far from the scene
of the late massacre, OF the Little Big
Horn. They have not fired into camp
lately, o attempted to burn 1t out, al
though the parched condition of the
grass renders this somewhat easy-at
least the animals may be robbed of sus-
tenance.
The wagon-train gives a supply until
October. The command moved seven
miles north on the day of the courier's
departure, to another branch of the
Tongue River, near the foot of the Big
Horn mountains. Crook will camp
thereon until the 9TH Cavalry, which
will leave Fort Laramie Monday,
reaches him, about the 9th of August.
General Crook will not make any ag-
gressive movement until this event, and
when, if the couriers whom he has des-
patched to Terry, advising him to join
him succeed in reaching that command,
he will have made a junction with
Terry, and the next action will prove a
decisive one.
Another Opinion From Sherman.
Washington, July 22.-General Sher-
man says all available troops in the
north and west have been ordered to
the Indian country, and that the num-
Der will be amply sufficient to defeat
the hostile tribes. He does not believe,
however, that the Indian question can
be settled until the government enters
on the policy of d~epriving the Indians
of their ponies and compelling them to
go on foot. When this is done the In
dams will be comparatively powerless;
those on their reservations will never
venture to leave them to go upon the
war-path. In regard to the reported
death of Sitting Bull, General Sherman
says it will make but little difference
whether it is true or not, as the Indians
have fully twenty as capable warriors
as he to command them in case of a
hattie

Chicago, July 22.-Much trouble has
been experienced of late by the general
freight agents of the trunk lines leading
west from this city in regard 10 the
transportation of bonded freight be-
tween eastern cities and California.
One Of the chief difficulties met with
has been the refusal Of the Union Pa
cifc railroad authorities at Omaha TO
pass large numbers of these cars over
their line, ON account of their being un-
derloaded. The ears being locked and
sealed with the government seal, it has
been impossible to open them and put
on a full cargo, and consequently great
inconvenience and delay have resulted.
To remedy this and other evils, a cir
eular was sent out yesterday to connect
ing roads by the general freight agents
of the Northwestern, Chicago, Rock Is
land d Pacific and Burlington q Quincy
lines, respectively, containing, among
others, the following directions :
Cars loaded with less than $4,000
pounds of freight will not be received.
Full car loads of 20, 200 pounds should
be made up as nearly as practicable.
When necessary, freight not bonded
should be put into the same a to COM
plete the load. All freight in each car
must be consigned to the same city.
Freight for Sacramento and San Fran
cisco should not be loaded together.
Adjustable gauge IN will not be taken,
as they are unsafe uponthe sharp curves
met in crossing the mountain ranges"

in Furnishing them when they leave

Defeat Of the Turks.

Belgrade, July 22.-The Turks are
everywhere assuming the offensive. 1t
is officially announced that the Turks
entrenched at Beljine attacked Gen.
Olimpies on Thursday, with ten battal-
ions, chiefly irregulars. They attempted
to drive the Servians across the Drena.
After six hours fighting they were re-
pulsed and pursued to Beljine with
heavy loss. The ground was covered with
Turkish dead. A rain storm stopped
the pursuit, but the Servian artillery
made great havoc in the Turkish ranks.
The Turks attacked Col. Mirkonie on
Wednesday, at Granada, east of Alex
antic. They were ten hours fighting.
The Turks were reinforced and resum-
ed the attack on Thursday, but were
repulsed. The repulse is the most i'm
portant strategic advantage the Servians
have yet gained. Granada commands
the road from Niche to Saitschar, and
bars access to the heart of Servia.
