Two Death.Bed Scenes.

If you want your children saved, lead
the way, and then they will follow you.
I never speak to parents on this subject
but I think of two men whom | know.
One of them is wealthy man, and says
he would give all the wealth he has got
if he had his boy back here again. He
lived to be seventeen years old, when he
was brought home in a dying condition.
An accident overlook him, and the fami-
" physician was brought for him, and
they entreated the doctor to bring the
4boy to consciousness before he died. And
4 at last he recovered little, and looking
around, saw his father, who said: "a
'My son, do you know that you are
dying?"
l."No. Is this death that feel?" :,
eyes, my boy, it is DEATH" .g.
"Well, father, won't you pray Tor my
lost soul?" !.
And the father wept and said he could
not pray. Seventeen long years God had
given him that boy, and he had never
breathed his name in prayer once. Then
he said to his mother: lugst uni
MOGilGT, yOu pray lOl ilO ..tI ....
But she couldn't pray. And soon after
he became unconscious again and died.
The father says thatif he could go to the
grave and bring the boy back again long
enough to bring him to Christ, he would
give all his wealth. But it was too late.
He had gone! !. !,0lt.r r,lui .
The other man-and what contrast
between the two! d
The other man was an elder in New
York church. He came home one day.
His child had been sick; but he didn't
consider him dangerously i'll. His wife
was weeping. Said he: IT.
"What's the trouble 2"
"Why, there's been great change in
our child since morning, and am afraid
he is dying. I wish you would go in and
tell me if you think he is"
The father went in and placed his
hand on his forehead, and he felt the
cold damp of death stealing over him.
And he said /: ~
"My son, do you know you are dying?"
"No. Am II" ha. 4,57.s.T
eyes"
"Will die to-day, father ~
eyes. You cannot live until night
And smile crossed the boys face, and
he said: syn Is a,4. a i1F
"Well, then, I will be with the sa-
viour." = ri lfa .r.
And the father turned his head to hide
the tears. But the boy saw them, and he
said ..s. !. il
Father, don't you weep forme When
1 get to heaven will 60 right straight
to Jesus, and 1 will tell him that ever
since I can remember, you have tried to
lead me to him Prom Moody.

the reason Of his not paying a just debt,

The Man Who Grew.

One day last week Detroit mechanic
who was going down Michigan avenue,
became favorably impressed with pair
pants hanging in front of a cheap CLOTH
ing store. The. price was low, the goods
seemed all right. and he made up his,
mind to purchase.
"I Civ you de word of Andrew Shack
SON dot dose pants are shust like iron"
said the dealer. 'I warrants dem efery
dime."
After three or four days wear the pur-
chaser found the bottom of the pants
crawling toward the knees. It was bad
case of shrinkage, and he got mad and
went back to the store and said:
'"You swindled me out of these pants !!
See how they have shrunk p
The dealer looked him all over, felt of
his head, pulled on the pants and finally.
said: - i'3 Il
"I shall give you one thousand dollars
month if you will travel with me-"
"How-what?"
"You are shust growing right up at the
rate of two inches a day, and takes you
around the country on exhibition: Dose
pants are shust as long as efer, but you
haf grown out of dem."
"I don't believe it." shouted the man !;
"I am forty years old, and quit growing
long agow
"f give you de word of Andrew Shack
son dot you yos growing"
"I don't care whose word you give! l
say the pants have shrunk nearly O
footp' ..se7...... -.
:eaHas de top of dose pants shrunk down
any?" softly asked the dealer.
"Why, no"
"Shouldn't de Wristbands shrink down
shust as quick as dose bottoms should
shrink like de odder, eh? When lsold
you dot elegant pair of pants for three
dollar, I don't suppose you was growing
SO fast, or I shall haf put yum straps on
de bottoms"
ssWell, / don't like this way OF doing
business" said the purchaser.
"Shust like me-. If I sell such elegant
pants as dozle to man, and he grows out
Of dem, it damages my trade. You have
damaged me five hoonered dollars, but
haf low rent pays cash for mein goods,
and can: make you dis fifty cents tie tor
FIVE, cents"
The man walked out to the curbstone
and turning around, shook his fist and
said: .- . ,,,,
"You are liar and cheat and I'll
dare you out here" -,
asuch dings sinks deep into my heart"
sighed the dealer as he took down bis
pipe, II dinks I sells out dis peesness
and peddle some vases aroundt. Den
when I sells to somebody it makes nc
difference how much dey grow."-Detro''

CHARLESAUN, D. W., Jan. oU, LOW.
My Dear Woodruff: What you have
done so far is highly approved. A mem.
orandum of your account as it then stood
was sent on yesterday. AS you collect
money due us pay yourself in full first,
and remit balance if any.
We count on you to push the State
printing (Acts.) The best we can do is
this: If we get 10 cents a line, which
would be about S24 per column, we can
allow the paymaster 20 per cent. and
yourself 10 per cent, which would only
leave us very moderate profit. If we
can get 123 cents line, which is $50 q
column, or more, we can allow you ~
per cent. instead of 10.
Now you have the whole programme,
and may blaze away at will. We are
willing to give helping hand to any up
country project, railroad or otherwise,
and free. Keep lis informed. Yours,
F. W. DAWSON.

COLUMBIA, S. c., June 8, 1877.
TO the Hon. r. g. Bo,oen, Chairman Of
Senate Committee:
S1R-The sub'oined telegram reached
me yesterday evening:
COLUMBIA, S. c., June 7.
10 F. ". Daocson, Ns,. lesion, S. c.:
Letters from you to Woodruff, of No
yember %, 1868, and January 80, 1869,
have been put before the Committee of
Investigation. If you wish to explain,
you can do so tomorrow morning at 10
o'clock. We are about to close.
R. E. BOWEN Chairman.
In response To this telegram I came
before your Committee this morning, and,
after examining the letters to Woodruff
referred to, asked that they be stricken
from the record of your. proceedings, on
the ground that, as there is nothing in the
letters that is, directly or by implication,
dishonest, corrupt or immoral, they are
not properly before your Committee or
within The scope of your investigation.
Your Committee having determined that
the letters shall be submitted with the tes-
tinony taken by your Committee, | now,
by your permission, submit the following
statement: -
When the letter of November "a was
written to Woodruff that person, to the
best of my recollection, was a salaried
Reporter for the Charleston News. No
charges had beer made against him, the
excessive appropriations for public print
ing had not been proposed, and he bore a
fair average character. The letter was
written, presume, in reply to a request
by Woodruff that I would define the atti-
tude of the Charleston News towards the
