was not in any manner intended as an
act Of piracy; that they we're pursued

Of life and death under the circum,

Il may DO said that such a life as this, a
life OF constant effort in the name and

you have seer msny q light 90 out from

even more widely extended sphere Of
action-lights in whose serene and steady
flame men thought they saw the symbol
of abiding grace. They cast their rays
into the darkest recesses Of human lie,
aud gave warmth and cheer to hearts
grown cold with sorrow or neglect. But
while you gazed, their splendor f.ded
into glare, their itful beams fell nearer
to themselves, q shadow swept across the
space where for a time they stood, aud
all was gloom again. . .
What the world needs now is the statue
Of a symetrical manhood set up some.

SERVICES AT ST. MARY's CATHEDRAL.
Rev. DR.. George c. Harris sermon to
the Bluff City Grays was a mastery
effort, aud one that gave un~exceptional
satisfaction. The sermon was replete
with noble sentiment, and delivered in q
clear, graceful manner. Indeed it is not
often that the pulpit Of Memphis com.
mands a better and more appropriate
sermon than that By DR.. Harris yester-
day, to the Bluff City Grays, whose pres.
ence had the effect to gather more people
than the capacity Of the church could
accommodate. DR.. Harris ser.
NOR was received with marked
attention, and will be treasured
not only by the Grays, but by
all those who we're so fortunate as to be
present. A noticeable feature of the
occasion was the really excellent choir
OF boys trained to sing the service in a
manner remarkably artistic. This was
the first time the boys appeared in sur.
plices, bat it will not be the last, Cor it
is generally remarked that the members
Of the choir are by far the best trained
and most adept for their age ever seen
in Memphis. This choir was trained By
Mr.. C%urrier, tho organist at St. Mary's,
whose taste is equalled only by his mas.
terly execution.
