Amid the birds and roses

Life on Mars.

hhhe va th
Prof. Lockyer is of the opinion til; t
human life on the planet Mars might
be very much like human life on the
earth-the light cannot be so bright,
but the organs of sight may be so much
more susceptible as to make the vision
quite as good; the heat is probably less,
as the polar SHOWS certainly extend fur
Their, but by no means less in proper
tion to the lessened power of the solar
rays. He agrees with others, that sew
eral very remarkable seas-including
inland seas, some of them connected and
some not connected by straits with still
larger seas-are now de6ns BILE in the
southern hemisphere, in which. as is
the case also with the earth, water
seems to be much more widely spread
than in the NORTHERN hemisphere.
There is, for example, Il southern sea,
exceedingly like the Baltic in shape;
aud there is another and still more re-
m wkable sea, now definedby the obser-
vations of many astrononers-one neal
the equator, u long struggling arm,
twisting almost in the shape Of an s
laid on its back from Fast to west,
which is at least a thousand miles in
length and a hundred in breadth.

SHALL WE INITIATE.

Strange are the vagaries of men
who forget the simylc doctrines of
honesty and resort to artificial expe-
dients for relief from debt. From
Washington it is reported that Our
Senators, returning from the South
and West, bearers of the discomfort
in their sections, witnesses of fast
occurring failures of the merchants,
have come back more eager than ever
to repeal the resumption act. These
gentlemen would probably resent any
alliance with our Northern Green
bacd Labor-Union party. But their
doctrines of finance do not seem to be
dissimilar. Al meeting of the Green
back-Labor consolidation party in
Harrisburg on the 29th of December
Mr.. f. w. Hughes, the principal
speaker, declared that as gold and
silver were irredeemabIe money be-
cause they were made legal tenders,
so green backs could be made money
by making them irredeemable legal
tenders. To that doctrine our anti
resumptionists appear to be converts
This theory, of course, misses the
very simple point that gold is stan
dard of values, not by coinage or
law, but by actual cost and the con
sensus of the whole worid.-Press.

national debt due January and July is
now being paid out. An aggregate of
twenty-five millions of dollars will be
paid out to National Banks and bond
holders this month in gold, not the com
specified in the bond, but gold advanced
to premium of ten cents, by the demon
etizing of silver. This vast amount has
been drained from the grain fields, by
ways, cross roads and alleys of the coun-
try, TO fill up the ducnltes already bloated.
And the echo comes back-plenty of
money, the avenues are full.
The machinery goes on; the tax gath
erer Is constantly knocking; the sherif's
hammer descends with unceasing regu-
larity-a heavy thud upon the hopes and
enterprise of the0land worker, and the
proceeds enter In the steady current to
ill up the avenues.
The avenues are full, but the streets
cross roads, lanes and alleys are empty, {,
and the tramp, tramp over the hard road
to the poor house looms up dismal in the
foreground to hundreds and thousands
Of once thrifty, industrious and enter
prising citizens.
And this is the result of VIII at? OF e.
nancial management at Washington, that
prates Of honesty to the boDdholder;
that exempts this twenty-five millions
of capital from the taxation, and makes
the laboriDg man pay it-that robs labor
of the pound of flesh to pave the ave-
nues with gold. This is what does it.

ATTRIBUTES of Christ Is a rare jewel,
but men know not His value; a sun
which ever shines, but men perceive not
its Brightness, nor walk in His light. He
is garden full of sweets, a hive full of
honey, a sun without spot, a star ever
bright,a fountain ever full,a brook which
ever flows, a rose which ever blooms. a
which never yields, a guide
who never errs, friend who never for
sakes. No mind can fully grasp dis
glory. His beauty, His worth, His i'm
portance, no tongue can fully declare. -
He is the source of all good, the fountain
of every excellence, the mirror Of per-
fection, the light Of Heaven, the wonder
of the earth, times masterpiece and
eternity's glory the sun Of bliss. the
way of life, and life's fair way. "He is
altogether lovely" says the saint ; a
morning without cloud, day without
night, rose without thorn. His lips
drop like the honeycomb, His eyes beam
tenderness, His heart gushes love. The
Christian is fed by his hand, carried In
His heart, supported by His arm, nursed
in His bosom, guided by His eye, In
structed by His lips, warmed by His love.
His wounds are his life, His smile the
light of his faith, the health OF his soul,
his rest and Heaven below.-Batern.

Silver SOphistries

In an article copied from the True
Citizen, published in the GAzETTE of
December q, find the following:
"When the 5-20s, which constituted the
bulk of our national indebtedness, were
issued, the "lnterest" was payable in coin
gold and silver, but the "principar' was
payable, at our option. either in green
backs, gold or silver"
The writer, l think, has fallen into a
fatal error. The contract on the face Of
the Government Bond reads thus:
"This bond y is redeemabie at the
pleasure of the United States after the
first day of September, A. D., 1891, In
coin of the standard value of the coin of
the United States, on said July IA, 1870."
The "pleasure" or option of the Gov
ernment, has reference to me of re-
demption only. ANY time after The first
of September. If not convenient the op-
ton gives the right to continue without
protest. But the kind of payment is i'm
perative; it must be paid IN coin of a
specified standard not an optional coin
or optional standard. There is no men,
ton of gold, greenbacks, silver or cop
per, and consequently their can be no op-
ton as to either. Greenbanks and cop
per are out of the question, gold and
silver remain and the standard value in
1870 was 25.S grains gold, 4l2t grams
silver; both metals are involved In the
argument and both must be considered
in the payment. To pay the bonds in coin
of less weight would be to rob the bond
holder, to pay them in a greater weight
would he to rob the tax payers.
The agreement is fair one, and the
bond holder has no excuse to whine over
the idea of a bad bargain. If 1 agree to
sell him thousand bushels of wheat at
dollar per bushel, and it should double
in price before the day OF delivery, he
will not pay me the difference. Why
should be- ask difference If coin should
change in value. FARMER.

WHY ADAM DIED.

The theology OF the fall of Adam
its consequences and the penalty re-
sultiug therefrom were discussed yes
terday before the Baptist Ministers
Conference in Oliver Street Church
by Mr.. A. P, Capwell, Brooklyn
lawyer. In the clerical comments
that followed the brethren conceded
the analytical ability of Mr.. Cap well
in the subtle q uestions presented and
they agreed with him in the main.
At the outset he made clear distinc-
tion between the consequences which
dow from crime and the punishment
attached to it. It's asserted that if
Adam had not sinned be would not
have died a natural death. Mr.. Cap
well contended that the language of
Scripture must mean that Adam was
mortal and liable to death before he
sinned. In mercy to him and To
his race God then drove him out of
the Garden of Eden, lest he should
eat of the tree of life and ..liYe forever
in this state of condemnation. The
subject was further discussed by Drs.
Fulton, Hopt, Lawson, Macarthur,
Hughes and others. IN. Y. Herald.

TAX ON SPIRITS AND ToBACCo.-A
Washington dispatch to the New York
Bulletin says Representative Tucker, OF
Virginia, has returned TO that city fully
determined to vote for a reduction of the
tobacco tax. Messrs. Burchard and him.
self, the sub commit ON taxation, have
had a conference and agreed to reduce
the tax on distilled spirits and tobacco
one-third, and levy an income tax
equivalent to the deficiency thus created.
The rate of the income tax will be de-
cided upon estimates hereafter to be
worked out. This would fix the spirit
tax at so cents, and the tobacco tax at
16 cents per pound. Mr.. Tucker takes
ground that the farmers want reduced
