Prayers in the Inn,

"'Whilo!passing d night, some time
since, at q large hotel in ono of the
Eastern cities, my mind was 80 favor
ably impressed by the announcement
that the hour for tho usual evening
services had arrived, that can mover
think Of it, but with the desire that in
every hotel, as well as in every private
family, the same announcement might
be mado, thus giving to tboso used to
gather around family alter, a homes
like feeling, sense, while among
strangers we are one in Christ. More
particularly did feel it's influence
might be for good upon those unused
to such service, which was commcn
ced by singing familiar hymn, to
which one of the young ladies Of tho
family joined II piano accompaniment,
followed by reading portion Of
Scripture and prayer.
May itnot DO thus in every family,
public or private? How sweet the re.
membrance TO those who may mover
meet again this sido Hcavcn-that
precious gathering. While everything
is being done for our comfort as stran>
gers and travellers, may not this ono
crowning privilege of all bo granted
th9n? Surely, nothing else can make
a public stopping place SO like ones
own home. DO any of us appreciate
the privileges Of family altar? How
many can look back to such gather
ings at their fathers fircsidc as the
place where frat religious Impressions
were formed, never to be forgotton.-

Too Much Cotton.

Bishop Pierce, Of Georgia, in a
letter from Texas to the Southern
Christian Advocate, gives. s,me ran
tional advice to our Southern plant,
ers. It'sis still much needed, ,soalas'
though in substance often urged upon
them before. The Bishops treat
ment of the subject is, however, both
novel and entertaining. 1t is, fore
ible presentation Of the Thought ,pf
Adam Smith, referred to by--us-
few days ago, that "l.pmhR food
seems to bo the only produce ofland
which, always and necessarially af
fords some rent to the landlord"
Verify, king cotton, Ike other
kings isSsonsmning the gpbstglee2ef
the people. Pros Gritty in this article
ofapfeduction, it seems, "tende,h'tb
poverty" A very heavy crop has
been made, and yet the people are
ON the tsragged edge" Of Insolvency
The moro we. make, the poorer we
grow. ssAndsyet the, desperate bet is
laid on@ another crop, in the face of
ten years unbroken uniformity of
results. The heatben adage, "Whom
the gods mean to destroy they fret
make mad," is being actualzed No
soil, no fertilizer, no seasons will save
the country on tile line of its present
agricultural policy. The result is
just as disastrous on the virgin sell
OF Texas as on the wasted lands Of
Georgia. Tho man who loses money
ia making ten bags of cotton will
lose yet more in the production of a
hundred. This is fact in experience,
in spite of theory and figuring. Forc
give this episode, for I am really disa
tressed at the prospects of the country
financially. Bad government may
destroy US and our property, but no
legislation can lift us out of the pres.
ent slough OF dospond,' without
home supplies. Bread and meat must
be made, not bought. The great
burden ofexpense lies right there
The stomach costs more than the
back. Make bread, raise meat, live
athome, be selfsupporting. Nchher
initiation, nor contraction, nor the
financial plank in the coming plat
form, willsave us. Help must come
out of tue ground, in breadstuffs.-
You may go to Texas-all cotton
Will swamp you; you may stay in
Georgia and grow fat and rich on
peas, potatoes, wheat aad corn. Let
us ill cur gamers with all manner of
store; then our oxen will be strong
to labor, our sheep will bring forth
thousands; thon there will "be no
breaking in nor going out" in quest
OF tood-plenty and peace viii hush
complaining in our Streets" and we
shall be a happier and botter, people.

The New Steel Making Process.

The result of the test of tho new
process for making steel, which was
tried at Harrisburg, Pa, short time,
was such as give indications of it's ere.
ating an important revolution in the
manufacture of stool. At the test al
ludcd to, 5000 pounds of steel were
made in two furnaces. Nino heats
wore run, in tour Of which were placed
800 pounds of cinder pig and n like
amount Of Mccormick pig iron. AS
soon as this became liquid, chemicals
were thrown in to scperato the sui
phur and phosphorus, and after tins
another package, which converted the
iron into steel in five minutes from the
time Of tho introduction Of the chcmi
calls. The Harrisburg Telegraph says:
The cost of chemicals is Ga cents per
ton OF steel, while the saving in iron
is from Al to per cent, while the
loss in iron by the Bcsscmcr process
Of converting iron into stool is very
nearly 30 per cent. Such results may
wei attract the attention of the trade
in steel rails, and it would certainly
socm to put quictus on the folly of
buying any moro iron rails fer our
railways. AS one steel rail will last
rs long as five to seven iron rails, it
only remains to prove that tho meth,
cd Of DR.. Fields produces steel as
reliable for wear as the Bcssomcr rails
to settlo tho question of superiority to
even that process. We trust whatev>
er isyct needed in tho way ofn test
will be carefully applied to this discov-
cry, and so give tho cheapest and tho
best rails that scionco can produce.

A KANSAS JOKE.-SenatOr Martindale, one of
the Kansas delegates to Cincinnati, is credited
with ajoke. During the preliminary skirmish-
ing prior to the assembling of the Convention,
the Kansas delegation was waited upon by a
party of gentlemen from Kentucky, who were
anxious to secure the support of our delegates
for Bristow. Said Martindale: "Will you give
us some reasons why Bristow would be a strong
er candidate than Blaine, any of the others ~
The spokesman proceeded to give his reasons,
and among other things said, that if Bristow
was nominated, he believed that he would car
ry Kentucky. "That's enough" interrupted
Martindale; "Fll he d-d if / ever vote for any
man that can carry Kentucky" The Bristow-
ties left in disgust.
