The U. s. courts are to be held in
Denver in July, but there will not be
much of q court, even with the pres
ence of great judges, because the de-
partment of justice is out of funds, and
cannot pay jurors or witnesses. There
will, therefore, be no juries. Only
chancery or bankruptcy cases can be
tried at the July term, and these car
not occupy the court long.-The new
appointment of United States Marshal
for Colorado has not been solicited by
the people, does not meet with their
approval, and should never have been
made. 1t reflects no credit upon Mr..
Hayes administration, and none upon
the high officials who recommended it.

dorse the appointment. Denver Times.

The conclusion / draw from these words IL. that
the Lords Service should be conducted in the Lords
house-juSt as every other business has lie own
proper place where IL Is conducted. Merchants
have their officers, bankers their Banks, shop-keep-
ers their stores-and the Lord commands us 10
make him a Sanctuary where his spirit may
dwell amongst his human creatures, and the Lords
business-religion-be ftly conducted. Surely, places
where sin is freely committed ON week days, such
as public houses, smoking saloons, brothels, and even
places Of questionable amusements, where bias
phemy. obscene language, drunken ribaldry, impure
desires, and often open impiety unfortunately are
too common with the frequenters, II not the per-
turner's, too,-oan hardly be deemed q fitting
" Sanctuary for the Spirit Of God TO dwell amongst
his creatures especially on the Lords Day ! There
Is a fitting place for all things there is a bridal
couch and a death bed-there are places Of amuse-
ment sinful or not, and there are 8anotuaries ~ the
Lord. To invoke the Spirit Of the Lord 10 Agell
in haunts Of sinners and blasphemers appears q
misunderstanding Of His command to make Him
a Sanctuary, a permanent dwelling where alone
His spirit shall hold especial communion with
