come; they pointed to Christ and his
dispensation, and were fulfilled and put
aside by him. He blotted out the hand
writing of ordinances which were
against us, and took them out of the
way, mailing them to the cross. None
of these symbols are we bound to per-
form, yet if men will live under the
Jewish rather than the gospel dispen-
%sation, they should be consistent and
fulfill the whole law. If they will con-
tend so %zealously for the outward Sab
bath of Moses. instead CT the spiritual
rest of the gospel, to which the out
ward Sabbath pointed, they should
manifest the same zeal in enforcing the
command to labor six days, and prac-
tice it themselves.
We have now answered friend "R."
and given him u opinion to the best
of our knowledge and ability. We don't
claim for them orthodox-if he is en-
l~ightered, We will be glad of it, and if
not satisfied, we refer him to Bro. Her.
man, of his place, for a more extended
and learned sermon on the text. As we
said at the start, it is out of our line,
and we are a little rusty anyhow on
biblical questions.-[ED. Dem.

ing agency firm of S. NJ. Pettengill &
Co., New York, entitled "%Pettengill's
Newspaper Directory and Advertis-
ers' Handbook for 1877" The pre-

ing been sought from every city, town
and village where ever the smallest
newspaper is published. The lead
ing facts are given respecting S,574
separate publications, designating po-
litical or other distinctive character,
the frequency of issue, the names of
publishers, ETC., and showing how
many of each daily, weekly, month
ly, etc., II published in each State
and Territory in the United States
and Province in British America.
The book is elegantly printed from
new type, and, beside its mine of in
formation, it contains portraits of
leading New York journalists, and IL
Illustrations of the extensive offices
where the publishers transact their
business in New York, Philadelphia,

We hardly think our old Democratic
friend should have undertaken to puz-
zle us with a question so entirely QUITO
our line. Matters of this kind belong
to the clergy who make them their
study, and we don't like to harrow a
cross their burrows or provoke their dis
pleasure by Running counter with their
ideas oftheologic things, although we
have lever thought the religious belief
or opinion of any man would harm an
other. We have heard a great many
ministers preach from the text: "Six
days shalt thou labor and do all thy
work. but the seventh day is the Sab
bath of the Lord thy God; on it thou
shalt not do any work." and in every
instance after repeating the text, they
made a clean leap over the six working
days, and spent all their eloquonce on
the holy Sabbath, laboring to enforce
the duty of attending church and sup
porting Sunday worship, as thoughtful
was the only obligation enjoined in the
text. Now, we believe it was quite as
much command to labor six days, as
it was to rest on the seventh day, but
we never heard a minister preach on
that part of the text. 1t would not suit
them; because ~siX-sevenths of their
time they do nothing scarcely but loll
on soft cushions, make calls on the sis
tiers, and fritter away the week without
even putting their hands to any manly
employment-and herein is where they
fail to practice the text; for it is IN
doubtedly quite as much of a sin for
ministers and others to loaf around
and waste six days in idleneSs, as it
is for the ungodly to spend the sew
enth or Sabbath day in work. Paul
could labor with his own hands at tent
making through the week, and preach
as the spirit gave him utterance on the
Sabbath, without money or price; but
the gentlemen of this age, 1--WE except
the Dunkards and Quakers) who pro-
fess to stand in Paul's place, would
think it a deep stain on their clerical
dignity to soil their hands with labor

We saw a mosquito work about ten

The Murphy movement has not

that the fact of none of our county Of
