SEPTEMBER 18TH. 1879

SEPTEMBER 10TH, 1879.
Mr.. EDIroR With your permission,
will give a few reflections on the Death of
Christ. The circumstances attending this
great event are so we'll known that need
not here describe them. This subject is
most important to the christian His death
was the most critical and most pregnant of
important events of any era in the history
of the human race. 1t was the hour in
which Christ was glorifed through suffer
ing. Through the cloud over-hanging his
humiliation, his native lustre often broke
forth but never did it shine so brightly as
now. TWAS, indeed, the hour of his d4ep
anguish. Distress when meeIlly borne emo
bles every christian and his distress was to
glorify the Son of God lie died to teach
mankind how to bear suffering and how to
die. See the magnanimity exhibited in
all his words and actions. No upbraiding,
no complaining expression escaped his lips
No symptoms of impatience or weakness
were displayed. With greatness of mind
without example he spent his last moments
in prayer for those who conspired in his
death. This was the hour lie atonc,l for
the sins of all men and effected our redemp-
ton. 1t was the hour when the great sacri-
flee was offered up, the eficicacy of which
reaches back to the first transgression of
man and in the future to the end of time
The hour when from the Cross rs from
high altar blood was shed which washed
away the guilt of all nations of people. In
this hour the series of prophecies, visions,
types and figures was accomplishment
centre at which they all met.
You behold the law and the prophets
standing at the foot of the Cross. You be-
hold Moses and Aaron bearing the ark of the
covenant; Daniel and Elijah presenting an
oracle of testimony; the priests with their
rites and ordinances and types and symbols
to witness the contamination. This was the
hour of the abolition of the law and the in
PRODUCTION of the gospel. The hour ending
the old and beginning the new dispensation.
'Itis finished" When He uttered these
words he changed the moral state of the
Universe. This was the ever memorable
point of time which separated the old from
the new. On one side you behold the law
with Its priests and ceremonies, on the
other side the gospel with Its simple institu-
| tons Now the veil of the temple was rent
in twain from top to bottom for the glory
then departed from between the cherubim.
The legal High Preist was no more. The
altar on which the fire blazcd for ages was
to smoke no more. The death of Christ
threw down the dividing wall between jew
and Gentle and united all nations and kin
dred of people. He triumphed over the
power OF darkness, led captivity captive and
gave gifts unto men, Now it was that the
foundation of every Pagan temple shook,
the statute of the tabled Gods tottered and
the heather oracles became dumb.
Re, pectiully, j. VI. MACON.

a few days ago Major Birney, of the
United States Coast and River Survey,
reached Bolivar. His feet is twenty miles
below Memphis. He comes to Bolivar in
structed to survey Hatchie river from Boil
var to Its mouth and report to the Govern
ment what it will cost to remove all OBJ
sturctions to the free and safe navigation Of
the river. He had constructed roomy and
convenient fiat boat at Miller's mill and en-
gaging the services of two of our sturdy and
reliable town boys, Rufe Tilson and Boiling
Macon, he started his expedition down the
river on Tuesday morning. The boat was
equipped with tent and other camp arrange
ments, provisions, etc, for two weeks
journey. His party will send the Bulletin
a letter from Brownsville, giving a sketch of
the trip. This is Il very important move
ment. Opening the river must rebound to
the permanent benefit of the entire section
drained by Hatchie. When Major
/ Birney makes his report of the estimated
cost of the work in hand, then Congress
will make a suitable appropriation to have
| it executed. At the meeting of Congress in
December, legislation will be had and by
February, it is said, the river will be made
navigable. 1t may be that ligh draft boats
will be put upon the the river at an earlier
day. The public will watch this enterprise
with great interest. Success to the exPedi-
/ tionists.

CLOTHING.

In this line we will drive all competition from
the field.
\ few good reasons why we sell Clothing
cheaper than any house who deals exclusively in
Clothing In the first place, buy for three houses
that deal largely in clothing, and consequently bay
in larger quantities than any one house can buy
them and get them cheaper. In tile Serond place,
sell clothing in the house with other goods
and statesmen do not have to remain Idle at least
half Of the time waiting for customers, is always
the case in a clothing house. Ny statesmen sell in
all departments Of the house, and work nearly all
the time, which enables to handle clothing for
less profit than any exclusive dealer who also has
to pay extra house rent. bought my fine clothing
in Cincinnati, from houses that have reputation
for making clothing of the best quality, style and
finish Don't fail 10 and see my clothing, aud
