SHARPS, FLATS AND NATURALS.

Essay read by Miss Harriet Mary Mckee, during
the Graduating Exercises of the Cairo High School
Friday evening. June ID, lc79
Since the morning stars sang together,
music has filled an all important part in
the economy of nature. Not only does il
represent all that is emotional, but it is
used with equal propriety, to describe the
relation Of natures various parts; and they
are proper or improper as they are in har-
mony or d'scord.
Harmony means perfection and e less.
Discord mpertection and unpleasant rela-
| tons.
We believe, that from the hands of the
Creator, na.cre came perfect and
harmonious whole; nothing discordant to
eye and car n all its broad expense. It's
music was all : cld anthems Of joy. It's
chords were ell common end is notes
ma. ,'"al.
There were no "Flats or She ps" in those
days. No no IS needed If 'Ty, none needed
lowering. Like az eat irs,tument, lately
tuned by a master mrsicia', Mare came
in pei c &c .ine from the hand Of God.
We do not propose to discuss the qucs-
ton of how it lost It's peri It la. nony, and
therefore, how Shsrps end Flats be anne
necessary. We do not believe they were
used in music whcngr I'd Old Father Jubr'
tuned his hr o. His simple her,t was
pleased with only the notes in the scale, 'f
there was scale, and there corld not be
many dircords made Of them.
But his children increasing in crrthly
wisdom, multiplied d'Gcords, as they mul.
tplied the notes of the scale, and the in
struments upon which they were produced
in all their various combinations and
"Sharps and Flats" came into use.
Probably at first they were only used to
patch up faulty passages, and make har-
mony. But they have grown in favor until
they IRE the essential elements In compost
ton. The same general facts prove true,
! In the lives Of men.

LINES.

RESPECTFULLY INSCRIBED TO KATE W., by I. A. NJ.
Look up, my friend, above the shades
OF dark tempestous night;
Look up and pierce the gloomy pail
That wells the brilliant light,
The gates of dawn are swinging back
To usher in the day
AZ countless starbeams fade from sight
Along the milky way.
Cast your burden of-dispel the gloom
OF sorrow doubt and dread!
The stars Of mercy, peace and hope
Shine calmly over head.
Take courage, plume thy inner power
For yet loftier fight.
And rest not till you nobly gain
PROFESSIONS topmost height.
Should clouds Of trouble thicken fast,
And drops of anguish fall,
Fear not, for heavens supernal love
Rests calmly over all
Resolve to face the darkest cloud,
And brave the roaring blast,
For right and truth shall guide you on
And lead you home at last.
LSt yuul eur away
Beyond the land Of gloom
Up to the upper realms OF light
Where flowers of beauty bloom
Still let thy prayers ascend on high;
Where knowledge, love and truth,
Dispense their bounties freely forth,
Alike to age and youth.
Pause at that shrine where Purity
Protects each soul from sin
Stay till the germs Of charity
Are planted safe within;
Then from the heights thou'st dared to mour
Bring back thy matchless dover,
And bless the hearts Of suffering ones
With sympathy, love and power.
Ask for the strength to bear the ills
That cluster round your way;
And to surmount the steepest path
That leads to perfect day
Plume your proud soul for nobler flights,
Tune your sweet voice for song,
Send forth the echoes Of your notes
Along the haunts of wrong.
Send forth the victories that you gain,
To brighten errors beaten road,
To bring some soul relief.
Cease not to strive, pause not while life
Shall lend its powers to thee
Sing as you 90 in sweetest strain
Gods anthem of the free.

BANDITTI.

BY .LISwooD.
In the shelter Of his cabin,
Lay the farmer fast asleep,
Dreaming Of the golden harvest
Which his strong arm soon would reap
From the overlooking heavens
Fell rich blessings In a bath, y.
Making here silver lattice
Making there winding path.
When from out the signing forest,
From lite quiet dark embrace,
There appeared three plump brown figures,
And each had woolly face.
They we're bears, these midnight robbers,
And with wicked thevish Joy,
Sprang they In the waving wheat.Aeld,
Sprang to frolic and destroy.
In the yellow grain they tumbled,
Bending 1t unto the ground,
jumping up and rolling over,
And them waltzing round and round,
Till chantlcleer gave the signal,
That the day was near at hand,
Then into the forest bounded
This venturesome young band.
From the cabin came the farmer,
Glad contcntment In his eyes,
Which on glancing toward his treasures,
Changed to looks Of dumb surprise.
Then throb of disappointment,
Flushed his cheek with angry red,
Had he caught woolly bandit
'Twould no doubt have lost its head.

AReeention io-nnteher.

We observe that Butcher, like Uncle
Jack Arnold, has had a reception from his
constituents. Butcher will go down TO
history US the young man from Parkers-
burgh, who came to Wheeling to practice
oratory at the expense of the people Of
West Virginia, lie was the last man
whose voice was heard in the hall OF the
House prior TO the final fall Of the Speak
er's gaYel. On his return home, his
admirng constituents, headed by
llOrner Of the Sentinel, and the color
cd band, proceeded to give him a
serenade. Pointing that memorable finger
at the imaginary Speaker, Butcher whaled
away at his Parkersburg audience in a
lively manner from the verandah OF Hills
hotel. The Sentinel says that he soon con-
vinced his audience that the arduous Ia.
bors hehad undergone "had not exhausted
the mine Of Knowledge and energy pent
up in his Apollo.like form" AT the con-
clusion OF the entertainment Charley
Caldwell was called on for few remarks.
He gave Butcher certificate Of character
as. a great statesman, and said that his
name would live in history long after
his hearers had mOul,lercd beneath the
clods of the valley. Meanwhile, before
they commenced to moulder, he was au.
thorized to invite them inside the hotel to
partake of liquid refreshments at BUTCH
er's expense. Upon this announcement
tho crowd stopped not for any formal ad-
journment, but with zone grand yell"
rushed in upon the bar Of the hotel and
partook heavily Of Butchers hospitality.
It is thought that this demonstration,
especially its finale, will secure Butchers
return to the Legislature in 1880 by a
largely increased majority.

II Is not only unreasonable, but 1t Il
even blasphemous to assert that Christ
has commanded mankind 10 hear His
Church under penalty Of being excluded
from the number OF Ills followers, and
being ranked with the unrcgenGrate
heath0n, and that still that church may

lead men into error and superstition
and damnable idolatry. But hear the
powers and prerogatives given by Christ
TO the church, sent forth by Him 10 teach
the nations in His own name and by His
authority. sg ~ &

commission given by Christ to His apostles.

It's meaning and showing, lst, q very special

ties in the discharge Of the commission

tions; I'd, the perpetuatiOn Of that special
divine presence and protection with the
teachers Of the nations until the end oithe
world; and, third, that the commission to
teach "all nations,H AL truth" for "all
time" with Christ'spresence with those
thus commissioned guaranteed as, the
pledge oftheir success, and with the cor
relative obligation imposed upon "all ma
tionsn during all time" 10 accept "all the
truth" taught by these commissioned min.
listers OF Christ and pastors Of His Church,
is in every respect equivalent to the Cath.
ole doctrine OF iniaIlibility in teaching,
attributed to the Church. But consider
ing this to be one OF the most important
features in the discussion of the existence
and ofticeo the True Church" the Bish-
op announced that he would continue its
examination on next Sunday afternoon.

Stables works, just above thetown, where
they rested until daylight, When Stables
men came to work they told them not to
go to work. The workmen were not will

The Deputy Sheriff departed for the

and tranquility reigns.
At least one hundred men are working

LONDON, March 16.-In the House of
Commons, OIL Friday night, Sir Stafford
NorthCote, replying TO an inquiry as 10
why troops had been sent to British Bur-
NAH, read the following telegram from
Lord Lytton, Niceroy OF India, dated
March sth:
The British garrison has been reinforced
on the urgent recommendation OF the
Chief Commissioner and the strong advice
OF Lieut.. Gov. 0lGn. The British residents
at Mandalay report that warlike prepara.
tiOns are making, and that the Burmese
are strengthening the river forts. There
are disturbances and dangers threatening
to foreigners. The warning comes from
well informed quarters that early mischief
is intended, and altogether the position OF
affairs is prccarious. The garrison in Bur-
nah was on a peace footing and too weak
for protection in the event OF q disturbance
on the frontier.
