As already stated, the shooting occurred

regarded as a clear case Of murder, but grad
pally it became known that for over year
past young Foster had exhibited signs Of in
sanity. and this tended to allay the excite

Uncle Charley DTays's serm on


On last Sunday evening" by request,
Uncle Charley Mays preached to large,
attentive and appreciative congregation
in the Methodist Church. While the
congregation were gathering several
hymns were sung by the colored choir,
in their peculiar and Jealous style. At
ter reading a chapter from Ezekiel, and
an earnest and touching prayer, Uncle
Charley announced his text: Then
they said one to another, we do not well:
this day is day of good tidings, and we
hold our place: if we tarry till the morn
ing light some mischief will come upon
us, now, therefore, come, that we may
go and tell the Kings household. -
Kings, 7ch., 9v.
| Uncle Charley combines, in a very I'M
common degree, the requisites necessary
to make the effective orator. Though
not what some would pronounce hand
some, he has that angular beauty of in
telligence which, in our view, is an am
pie compensation for faultless form and
symmetrical features. United to per-
SON imposing and striking, is just such a
voice as an orator ought to have-each
word to fill and pierce the ear like the
startling tones of the charge -sounding
trumpet, There is one charm about his
preaching, that is, it is earnest, feeling
and evangelical.
The pulpit is throne. It is not al
all times filed by monarch, but yet it
| =: = +b-o,,o Tts roIationc to civilization
are such as to interest us all. Individu-
ais in other pursuits are sometimes pow
| erfully felt in the control of human af-
fairs; but the pulpit ought to sway the
| widest and most resistless dominion over
human fortunes 1t is the duty of every
earnest Christian man, who can sway
human opinion, to advocate in public
the claims of Christianity. We are nc
/ ritualist. No man has the keeping OF
custody of the gospel; its bright waters
are free, without money and without
price, and the pulpit should be open to
men who persuade souls to come to the
Lord
These thoughts were suggested by the
earnest and respectful attention given
Uncle Charley, which demonstrates that
a poor uncuIturcd, unlettered, and as he
said, self-taught coIored man, can WELD
a powerful influence for good, even
more than Beecher, whose mind runs
over the whole domain of literature, poi
itics and metaphysics, in quest of topics
on which to entertain the vast crowds
who throng Plymouth Church every
Sabbath. Uncle Charley is a greater
Christian-he confines his excursions to
the subjects prescribed in the scriptures.
He is preacher, not mere lecturer.

The bondholders or their agents took
the wrong course in the first places but
one wrong does not justify another
The greater portion of the bonded in
debtedness is just and should be paid II
were able Our creditors scan not col
lect a cent by law, and we are thrown
upon our honor to say how much we can
and are willing to pay. That Is the
whole issue in a short sentence. The
bondholders seeing our financial en-
barrassment, and alarmed at n growing
spirit of Reputation, fastened to submit
proposition. Having agreed to take
sixty cents on the dollar, we presume
they would, for the sake of a settlement
and as finally, be willing to accept fif-
ty cents. This we would regard as
something like an equitable settlement.
The people can pay that much without
going above forty cents tax on the one
hundred dollars, and at the same time
provide a sinking fund with which to
call in the bonds from time to time at
the market price. The sooner this ques-
ton is settled the better But the Gov
ernOr would hardly be justified in call
ing an extra session unless he has reason
to believe that a compromise can be ac-
cOmplished. The bondholders on the
one hand, and the members of the Leg
islature on the other, should not hest
tate to communicate their views to the
Governor, that he may be able to act
advisedly and for the best interests Of

Masonic Tribute of Resnect

Masonic Tribute of Respect.
Your committee appointed to express
the sense of this Lodge concerning the
death of our beloved brother, j. b.
Leach, who was called from labor to re-
freshment on the goth ult., submit the
following:
Brethren-We have again. been forci-
bly, reminded of the uncertainty of life,
and the mutability of our present. How
true that "man cometh forth as flower
and is cut down: he flecth also as a sha-
dow and continueth not" To-day we
put forth the tender leaves of hope; to-
morrow we bloom and bear our blush
ing honors thick upon us; the next day
comes a frost which nips the shoots, and
when we think our greatness is still as
piring, we fall like autumnal leaves TO
enrich our mother earth"
Thus we, brethren, shall be cut down
by the all devouring scythe Of time and
gathered into the land where our fathers
have gone before US. The Setting Maul,
the Spade and the Coffin must be the des-
tiny of us all Yet, thank God, over all
and beyond all these, blooms the ever
green Acacia, an emblem Of the immor-
tally of the soul, assuring us that we
have within us an immortal part that
must survive the grave, and may live for
ever in the Supreme Grand Lodge where
the Great Architect Of the universe pre-
sides
Our departed brother has leftus in his
lie and death rich legacy. Though
his seal is vacant and we shall mourn his
absence from our regular conmunica
tons, and miss him in all the relations
Of our mystic brotherhood; yet he Is our
brother still, and has only passed on be-
fore those of US who prove faithful to
receive the salutation of well done,
good and faithful servant . Let US ever
initiate his virtues and keep his memory
green in our hearts until we shall see
him again.
Your committee submit the following
resolutions:
First-That in the death of brother
Leach this Lodge has lost one of its best
and most worthy members.
Second-That we bow in humble sub
mission to the behesis OF. the AII-W Use
Providence that has bereft U.S. feeling
that our loss is gain to our departed bro
Their
Third-That we tender our heartfelt
sympathies to the widow and orphans of
the deceased, with sthe assurance that
they win not be forgotten s. b
Fourth-That we will wear the usual
badge of mourning for thirty days
Fifth-That the Secretary spread a

utes of the Lodge
