ADAM" There is difference between
church and dispensation. There is also
very great difference between church and
promise of Saviour.
Second. see no authority for saying that
"in the time of Abraham the privileges of the
church were restricted to single individual

reasonably suppose, Job was the cotemporary
of Abraham, where were he and Elihu and
the Sons of God who came to present them.

righteous man, who vexed his righteous soul
from day to day with the unlawful deeds of
the Sodomites? These we're all left QUIT
Third. Paul does not sey that circumcision
was a "sign and SEAL" No doubt many be.
lieve that Paul has actually coupled "sign and
seal" together, just as they are here copied
from the Confession Of Faith. Paul says that
Abraham received the sign of circumcision,
seal of the righteousness of the faith which
he had, yet being uncircumcised." Where,
then, is the authority for saying that it was

It is clear, then, that in the meaning Of the

merse, in which meaning they are sustained
by every lexicon that is worth notice, and by
every pedobaptist commentary of note, inclu-
ding the very latest, Jesus was baptized by
John in Jordan; and that, because Johns

the country.
THE RIO GRANDE.
Disturbances along the Rio Grande in Tex
as, to which I have already referred, have
rendered necessary the constant employment
of a military force in that vicinity. A full
report of all recent military operations in that
quarter has been transmitted to the House of
Representatives, in answer to resolution of
that body and it will, therefore, not be neces-
sary to enter into details. / regret to say that
these lawless incursions into our territory, by
armed bands from the Mexican side of the
line, for the purpose of robbery. have been of
frequent occurrence, and, in spite Of the most
vigilant efforts of the commander Of our forces,
the marauders have generally succeeded in
escaping into Mexico with their plunder. In
May last, gave orders for the exercise of
the utmost vigilance on the part of our troops
for the suppression of these raids, and the
punishment of the guilty parties, as we'll as
the recapture Of the property stolen by them.
Gen. Ord, commanding in Texas, was direct
ed to invite the cooperation of the Mexican
authorities in efforts to this end, and to assure
them that was anxious to avoid giving the
least offence to Mexico At the same time,
he was directed to give notice of my determl-
nation to put an end to the invasion of our
territory, by lawless bands, intent upon the
plunder of our peaceful citizens, even if the
cffectual punishment of the outlaws should
make the crossing of the border, by our troops
in their pursuit, necessary. It is believed
that this policy has had the effect to check
somewhat these depredations, and that with
considerable increase of our force upon that
frontier, and the establishment of several ad-
ditional military posts along the Rio Grande,
so as more efectualy to guard that extensive
border, peace may be preserved, and the lives
and property of our citizens in Texas, be fully
protected.

Wide-Tired Wheels.

This is another point which we are
very apt to overlook, greatly to our dis
advantage We suffer ourselves to be
guided by wagon makers, and the wheel
wright knows very well that he lives by
his trade, and that wear and tear is the
life of trade. He serves himself when
we are suited with narrow wheels. A
set of wheels with 4-inch or 6-inch rims
and heavy tires, cost to make considera-
BILE more than set 2 inches side but
an extra price is always put upon them.
They are well worth it. A wagon or
cart with 6-inch tread will take heavy
loads over soft meadows and hardly leave
a track, where wheeled wagon
with similar load could not go at all.
On country roads such broad-tread We
hicles destroy ruts, and act like rollers,
making the roads agreeable for light
carriages, and keeping Them in much
better order throughout the year 1t
would be real blessing to every State
of the Union, to put so heavy tax on
narrow wheels upon heavy wagons and
carts that they would become quite OBJ
solete. Millions of dollars would be
saved to the people of each State, in re-
pairs of roads, in repairs of wagons, and
in horse-fesh. Ag1icuttor-

What Marshall Jewell Discovered in
Russia.

Marshall Jewell is typical Yankee,
"smart as chain-lightning, and cute as
they make EN-, even in Connecticut.
Gov. Jewell, according to report, came
it over the Russians while Minister to
that country. 1t is said as a matter of
fact that Gov. Jewell, while Minister in
Russia, found out the secret of the ia
nous Russia leather. The secret is the
result of the use of birch-bark tar, with
which the skins are dressed in place of
tallow and grease, the latter substances
being so largely used rs food among the
lower classes. This tar, which is care
fully saved as it exudes from the wood
when burned, was first used as substi-
tute for wheel grease in Russia, as it is
to this day, and then for the filling and
dressing of skins. BY a system of care
full inquiry, and literally following his
nose during his visits to some of the
great Russian tanneries and curriers'
shops, Mr.. Jewell found this compound
in great kettle ready for use, and thus
the mystery was solved. 1t is not ex-
pensive, costing about so barrel,
and he Immediately ordered ten barrels
and sent them to various leading leather
manufacturers in this country with in
structions, and the result is that genuine
Russia leather goods are now made in
America, and doubtless will soon be
sold at nearly 80 per cent. below former
prices. NJ ID Press.

A Woman Murder.

A sickening tragedy occurred recently
at country dance near Jasper, Pickens
county, Ora. Among the attendants were
Mr.. and Mrs. Suthard and Mrs. Cowart,
the latter a grass-widow of 26 and an
attractive person. During the evening
Mr.. Suthard asked Mrs. Cowart to dance
with him, and, she accepting, they took
their place on the floor. This procedure
angered Mrs. Suthard, who went to them
and demanded that Mrs. Cowart retire.
Mr.. Suthard tried to quiet his wife, but
would not release Mrs. Cowart from her
engagement. In passion the wife sprang
upon the woman she thought her rival,
and for n few moments the two fought in
true feminine fashion, tearing hair and
scratching, until they were separated.
Freeing herself from those who held her,
Mrs. Suthard again rushed at Mrs. Cow
art, at the same time drawing knife
from her person, with which she cut
Mrs. Cowart's throat, severing the iugu.

intent to demolish Gen. PleasoNfon and

A Good Mule Story.

Pleasant Riderhood sends the fol-
lowing "true mule story" to the ST.
Nicholas Magazine:
The rescue of mule in Bienville Par
ish, La, from well sixty feet deep,
caused so much surprise and interest
here lately that 1 send an account to
you.
1t is vouched for by some of the best
and assure You it is every word true.
This mule fell hind-feet backward into
an old dry well sixty feet deep; it is sup
posed that the edge of the well caved in
with him. All efforts to rescue him
were fruitless, as he was completely
wedged i'll. Finally, the owner of the
mule, supposing that the poor creature
was severely injured by the fall, decided
that it would be more merciful to have
him killed than To allow him to starve to
death. Not knowing any other way of
dispatching him, lac had a cart-load of
dirt thrown in upon him. But, instead
of allowing himself to be buried alive, his
muleship quietly shook.off the dirt and
pressed it down with his feet; thus rais-
ing himself several inches above his orig
inal position. Another load was thrown
in, with the same result; and then some
one said that if the mule would continue
trampling down the dirt it was possible
that he might be extricated; it would be
no harm to try, any way. Acting on this
suggestion, all the far1n-hands went to-
work filling the well, carefully pouring
the dirt in ON the sides, 80 as not to hurt
the mule. 1t was slow work filling that
deep well, but hearty interest was
awakened by the perseverance with
which the poor animal tramped down the
dirt, and all worked with willing hands
Slowly but surely, inch by inch, did
he ascend, until the great well was filed
within a few feet of the top; then, as
complacently as if nothing strange had
happened, his muleship stepped out safe
and sound
L think, If he could have then been
blessed with the gift of speech, he would
have said, CANS aceU that ends aOeU %

The North Pole.

Lets play North Pole !" and, as they
all said let's, they went to work at
once.
They didn't have any ships, but they
walked, for they decided to call the cor
ner where the pantry came out of the
back of the house the North Pole.
There was tremendous drift there, and
a good many drifts on the way, and, as
Maud had a broom and the boys had shov-
els, they had about as much trouble in
reaching the Pole as men have who go
by water. Then they made an Esquimau
hut, which was almost tremendous, for
the room inside was so high that they
could stand up straight and take two or
three steps without humping their heads
Like good travellers they came fully
prepared Maud had her tea-set, and
such things as Bridget would give her
for dinner, while Fred and Joe had in an
old black valise pieces of wood for shelves,
and plenty of shavings for fire.
But the smoke was dreadful, and drove
them out in hurry.
Just then a boy going along the street
called out :
"Great fellows you are why don't
you make n chimney"
So the boys climbed up on top and
made big hole, but still the company
nearly coughed their heads off with the
smoke.
BY and by Maud had ready the dinner,
which was served on chips, but they
hadn't got through the first course when
something very terrible happened to the
North Pole.
The roof tumbled in Out came
Bridget and 'the hired man, for Fred,
whose head luckily came through the
chimney, was shouting fire and every
thing else but the right thing; and
mamma took three large teacups of snow
from the inside of poor Maud's back,
while Fred and Joe went and looked up
their book on the North Pole, to see what
Capt. Kane did when lots of snow got
down his neck. York Tribune, Jr.
