BOB. INGEnSOLL.

Old Bob Ingersoll has come out of the
West,
In all the wide border his tongue Is the
best.
SO sharp and sarcastic, auducious and
droll.
There'o no such talkcr as Bob lngersolll
He cares not for heaven and stops not for
he'll;
He swims the Styx river In spite Of its
smell.
Pats Cerebus' head. gives Pluto his hand.
And lights his cigar in the underground
land.
You wouldn't believe that so heavy a
weight
So lightly could scale the high question of
Or n person so beefy and gross could have
TO tackle the subject Of human free will,
But Bob Is the chap for It all who but he
AS lightly a. birds Hit about in II tree,
He jumps from defending the national
Fraud
To snccring at Christians and flOuting
their God.
With an audible snap OF his finger and
thumb,
He %disposes at once of the kingdom to
come,
And beliefs in which millions so hope
hlly rest
Are twirlcd in the air Oh the point Of a
jest.
It Is easy enough for the lovers of sin to
Believe IN no heaven they rann0tg get into;
And natural. too, tor the wicked to doubt
A hell which they tear they cannot keep
But honest mankind, who desire to do
right,
Had much better keep the old landmarks
in sight;
And it always Is safe to distrust and to
fear
The logic that's made up Of froth and II
snccr.
SO Bob Ingcrsoll should 90 back to the
West.
Far out on the prairics, and pull down his
vest.
And let him take with him his cheating
friend Hayes,
And in silence and shame let them both
mend their ways.

Teaching Sunday School Children
to Honor Forgery, Perjury
and Fraud.
From the New York Sum-.


There is published in Philadelphia a
weekly journal called the Sunday
School Times. 1t is intended especial
ly for the Sunday schools OF orthodox
churches, and it thus may be presumed
to address, directly aud indirectly,
about one million Of children whose
parents belong to the Trinltarian Prot
cs,ant body and believe in the solemn
and positive doctrines held by that
branch OF the Christian world; and
ye. this religious journal deliberately
aud insidiously inculcates upon the
minds within the sphere OF Its Influence,
and especially upon the minds Of chill
drcn, the opinion and the sentiment
that fraud, forgery, perjury, and the
appropriation Of that which belongs to
others, are not only vcnial offences.
but must entirely be overlooked and
forgotten when they are successfully
rrac'ised by men occupying elevated
stations!
The Sunday School Times takes
pains to publish conspicuouslv aranl-
ing letter from Rutherford b. Hayes.
whom it calls the President of the
United States, and whom il thus holds
up TO its readers as. a person whose
character and acts are worthy OF praise
aud imitation. Nevertheless, it is motto
rious to all men that Hayes is only
President Of the United States ny fact
and not by right that lie obtain d the
office through crimes OF the most
wicked and aulacious kind aud tina,
forgery and perjury were freely EN-
pl,yeh in his behalf to defraud the
American people Of their right to
choose their own President and to put
this man Hav"s-all with hi, own
knowledge and jealous co-"peration-
into the -,fice OF President in place "i
the man whom the people had rraiI,
and truly elected.
WHAT hope is there for religion o,
for morality in the rising generation
when an orthodox religious Journal not
merely condunrs and ignores suct
crimes, tut actual, puts and PRAISES
the guilt est among the climin Is?
