Our Natal Day.


Our Natal Day.
One hundred aud three years have
passed away since our patriotic fore
fathers gave to the world nation of
free men. Though there are none
living now who took part in those
times that tried mems souls, we are
reminded of them bv every recurring
Fourth of July, which has become
Americas natal day of independence.
Though the revolution lasted five years
after the declaration Of independence,
and the centennial Of some of the
hardest fought battles of that period
have not yet been celebrated, the dec!a
ration of Independence by the American
Congress in the old State House in
Philadelphia, is rightly looked upon as
the greatest event that contributed to
the establishing Of this great Republic.
One hundred years ago to-day New
Haven, Connecticut, was ravaged by
British soldiers, and it was not until
1881, two years hence ye', sine. Corn
wallis evacuated Richmond, but no
event of these eight years of terror and
bloo1shed, 50 excites the average Amer
ican as the Anniversary of 1nde-
penlence. One hundred aud three
Anniversaries have already been cele-
bratel, and unlike every other ami
versary the observance of this one
only seems to increase as the nation
grows older.
Tn. centennial of our revolutionary
term is not near over yet, but We are
slowly passing through it. The great
contest, though the armies employed
were but pigmes compared with those
employed during the late rebellion, ri
vailed in time and importance many
other modern wars and was productive
OF the results which ushered in a new
era Of popular government. The ma
tions of th- world have for the las,
hundred Years been watching America,
and as they watched it, the more have
they been pr-possessed in favor of our
IF and Eropou
the chaos and confusion of kingdoms
and empires has a. last placed herself
sid. by side with America in the trial
of Republican form of Government.
We have lived Ion, enough 20 know
that Republicans have their trials. The
swell of st)rm OF four years bloody
rebellion has not yet died away-its
mutterings ara still to be heard. The
worst of .ur distresses and dangers arr
over, Tut the perfect, calm, repose and
rosperity for which We long in the
futme, and the days separating us from
them are made shorter and brighter by
recalling the obstace e5 which had to BE-
met one hundred years ago, before all
the ends of that great trial were won
and peace came with free iom, and lib
erty clus with law and order. 1t is
right and proper then that on every
recurring Fourth of July the citizens
Of this great Republic should show
their appre ;iaton Of it in a rational
manner which cannot fail to increase
the love of liberty, which made our
forefather O fer up their lives to obtain
it, and which made even the present
generation turn the nation into an
armed camp to defend those same liber-
ties.

THE PHILADELPHIA North Ameri
eau" says the lease of the Philadel-
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1879-02-24

When religion comes to a man it does
not say, Repent in order to get to
heaven" or "Obey Gods command be-
cause they are right" but it says, "Ye
are dead in trespasses and sins; ye must
be born again" 1t don't discourage
men. 1t says to mankind, "You must
have reorganization of yourselves you
can't march and keep step with Gods
host except you undergo a reorganiza-
ton that shall be radical and thorough.
Centralize the great principle of love
and organize your whole character
around it, and you are Christ's men T"
That is the New Testament doctrine.
But what is the popular demand of re-
ligion There is technical conversion !;
men should become Christians to save
their souls from damnation. This is a
tremendous motive, but it is not a dis
closure of what the Gospel says. "Re-
pent and be converted, ~ is the cry. "You
must he horn again" Inward recon
struction is what the New Testament
says to every creature. We used to be
taught that conviction of sin was neces-
sary. This was claimed to be indispen-
sable. Into this state every man had
to be plunged as in a bath. Then in
communities where there are many
churches, general morality and joining
the church are considered sufficient.
The church is, indeed, net cast into
she sea, and it gathers all sorts of fishes
good, bad and Indifferent. Men may
be moral and yet not have dreamed Of
what religion really is. Then to a great.
err extent men have religion presented to
them in its dynastic aspects. Men may
be decorous and prayerful and obedient
to much law, but no matter what ht
complies with, listen: Though I speal
with the tongues of men and of angels
if men are not animated by an un
feigned and organic love, they are 6;
sounding brass and tinkling cymbal.
That man is Christian preacher thu
breath of whose life pOurs love and in
spires love. We must undergo a chang
which shall make benevolence the cen
trail element of our lives. The chang
is greater in some than In others. AL
are not sinners alike. Conversion il
not slight thing, but radical thing
In some men the change required is rev

THE NAME JESUS.


Bernard has delightfully."- compared the
name of Jesus to honey in the mouth,
melody in the air, and joy in the heart.
Nothing hears such delicious perfume as
the name of Jesus. 1t is the beginning
of hope and end of despair. The name
of Jesus was divinely ordered, expound-
ed, and conferred 1t was the angel of
the Lord who first breathed that name
to Joseph, and it was rendered sweet
by the words with which it was accom-.
panied-"He shall save his people from
their SINS" AS the name was Gods
own choosing we may rest assured it
was the best name the Saviour could
bear. 1t was name which must be
true, because he who gave it cannot err.
The name signifies Jehovah Saviour, for
he is a Saviour in sense that no one
else is or can be. In addition to ex-
pounding the name, the Eternal Father
has been pleased to give us a synonym
for it. Jesus may be changed to I'm
manuel, for he bridged the gulf between
God and man. Both Jesus and Imman-
uel are full of heart-cheer. Although
the name was chosen by God, it is chosen
by men. How applicable that name is
to him men we'll know. for those who
do not know Jesus as their Saviour do
not know him at all. Jesus was pub
licly named in the temple, and those
who know the Saviour should publicly
confess him. If he was Jesus in the
cradle how grandly does the title beft
him now that he has made atonement
for our sins, and entered heaven to in
tercede on our behalf. The name had
been typically worn by others, but is
now reserved for him alone, and has
honceforth identified Christ with his
people There could have been no Saw
Jour unless people required to be saved.
His connection with his people lies in
the way of their SINS The connecting
link between Christ and ourselves is not
our riches, but our need. The name Of
Jesus is one which indicates his main
wOrk-saving his people from their sins

SELECTING BREEDING TURKEYS
While all breeders like to have and
breed "heavy weights" and customers
buying turkey all call for large birds.
it is fact that for market purposes,
moderate-sized and even small turkeys,
commend a more ready sale than do
large ones. We have watched the mark.
ct for few days past, and know this to
be fact. However. we do not wish to
discourage breeders from running up the
weights, even if they attain the much
devoted weight of fifty pound gobbler
at three or four years old, for as long as
there is lively demand among breeders
for heavy birds, let there be birds to
supply that demand. To secure the
best results in that directions, select an
early Matched, strong and vigorous COB
bier of this years hatch. and which is
of fine proportion, long in the body and
properly marked, and mate him to as
many two-year-old hens as you intend to
keep-from two to five hens, if properly
handled, will produce fine crop of
birds each season, and you cannot help
but be absolutely satisfied with the re-
sults.-Pouitry Journal.
