we cannot vouch for, as the list

pained to reject. This advice

There is a growing feeling in this

for the reason that there is a correspond

hanging as punishment savors too

MOODY'S ADVICE.
A Word about Work, Addressed
to Unemployed Men.

Mr.. Moody, In the progress of a dis
course at Chicago, few evenings ago,
delivered the following advice to un-
employed men ~ p ~ ...| ~
And now word about work. Earn
the bread you eat. l would rather
earn five cents than some one give me
five dollars. There is no hope of a
mans reformation who does not go to
work. Laziness belongs to the old
creation, | don't know what to do.
and don't see what God can do with
lazy man. If you can get only
twenty-five cents day, go to work
for that. Some one once tried to abuse
Senator by saying that he used to
black boots. Didn't / black them
well ?n he answered. Work il honor
able. Any honest work is better than
Idleness. Black boots, or carry a hod .
or carry in coal, and If you can only
earn five cents day, live on five
cents day. Don't go in debt.
"Some of you think IL Is hard that
there is no work to be fonnd that
people are 80 suspicious of you. Well,
they have reason for il f.; you are only
Just out of the rum shop; you are just
getting up to the first round of the
ladder but il they find that you are
really true man, then there will be
people to trust you and give you en-
plOyment. 1t is because there are so
many hypocrits In the world that peo
pie are afraid to put confidence in you.
and predict that you will not hold out
Don't think you are STOPPING because
you have TO work for less than you
got before. Do your poor rough work
well, and you will find better work to
do.
Another thing, Some of you are
in the habit of lying. / have heard OF
one who professed to be a reformed
man who has been lying : and what a
disgrace that Is to good cause. Now
let me say TO you, be truthful. If you
have to tell the worst about yourself,
don't lie Own up to the truth. for II
Ia better and safer that the worst
should be known. Here Is man just
out of the penitentiaTy who gets q
place Of trust, and one OF his old pals
comes Ia and threatens to blow on him
unless he puts up $25 But IL he can
answer, My master knows all about
me, he is a free man in spite Of his
pact disgrace.
81 want you TO take this advice
kindly: | give II from my heart. II
you don't get on as we'll Rs you wish
don't go back into sin. One Of the

Our Northern Allies

We regret to notice want Of conf
dence expressed by some of our Com
servative contemporaries in our North.
ern allies If it indeed be true that
we caunot rely upon the Democrats of
the North and West, then we must
either discard them and unite with
their opponents and our unrelenting
enemies, the Republicans, or else, as n
sectional party largely in the miuOri-
ty, we must as sectiOnalists remain
under the ban as helpless to protect
ourselves against the united North as
We were ut the conclusion of the great
struggle In '65. But why should we
distrust the Northern Democracy Z?
Have they not been our friends, SYM
pathizing with us in all of our troubles
since the close of the war, opposing
every amendment to the Constitution,
and all legislation in the dark hours of
reconstruction that was harsh and un.
generous Have they not AS party
made themselves odious in their own
section because of the pertinacity and
fidelity with which they have fought
our battles and maintained our cause =?
We may, aud do, differ with the poll
cy advocated by some Of the leaders Of
the Democracy in some respects, but
we do not distrust their loyalty to the
Constitution or their disposition to adj
VOcate such measures as are just and
generous alike to all sections. Nor
can we find in the past history Of the
Republican party aught that would
inspire the hope that 1t would be safe
to look to them for that friendship in
the future that they have withheld
from us in the past. No; as the friends
of"hOme rule" the Northern Democ-
racy are our friends, and so long as
they remain true to themselves, true
to constitutional liberty. to State
rights, which has ever been the corner
stone upon which the party has, if not
impregnably, at least consistently
stood we shall continue as an ally
faithfully to espouse its cause, which
is ours, and the cause of truth justice
and civil liberty Richmond Wing.
