DR.. John Hall says he has no sympathy
for the consciously funny preacher. He cam
not tolerate tho man who turns buffoon
in the Lords pulpit and cracks deliberate
jokes to raise laughter in the congregation !;
the sensational minister who prefers to raise
any sxoitensent bait thatlof soligion.
He had himself often been called upon to
be present at surgical operations in hospitals
upon the issue of which depended human
lives ; and as he had watched the surgeons
probe wound for hours, close upon the vital
parts, when half inch slip either way would
be instant death to the patient, his admiration
for tho profession had grown into awe. If
the surgeon, however, at so serious moment,
engaged In SO solemn business, had chaffed
and joked he thought he could have hated
him. In like solemn business is the minister
engaged, in probing the hearts of the people
to bring them to life and heal their wounds
in the balm Of the Holy Spirit he who can
chaff when engaged in so awful duty is in
deed scoffer. A clown in the pulpit has
mistaken his aeld for operations.

Soon after the dinner hour specimen
tramp appeared at the door of house on
John R. street, Detroit, and before he could
be ordered off the steps he began
" Sir, am tramp"

i" How ?"

This was agreed to. He sat down on the
steps, removed his hat, lighted the stub of
cigar and was reading circular when the
four fellows slouched up and entered the
yard.

/ SAD STORY ora WREoKRD LIFE.

The most thrilling and sadly suggestive
temperance lecture is the sight of once no-
BILE, talented man, left in ruins by intoxicat-
ing drink. A Washington paper tells of a
ragged beggar we'll known in the streets of
that city, who once had an important COM
mand in the army, having been promoted for
personal bravery, from cavalry lieutenant
to nearly the highest rank in the military ser
vice. Ono night recently, when he had been
too successful in begging liquor to stop his
craving, and while lying helplessy drunk in
the rear part of Third street saloon, some
men thought to play joke on him by steal
ing his shirt, and proceeded to strip him.
Underneath his shirt, and suspended by a
string from his neck was a small canvas bag,
which the men opened and found it contained
his commission as brevet maior-general,
two congratulatory letters-one from Presi-
dent Lincoln--a photograph of little girl,
and curl of hair--a g chestnut shadow :"
that doubtless one day crept over the brow of
some loved one.
When those things were discovered, even
the half drunken men who found them felt q
respect for his former gentleness and pity
for his now almost completely fallen
condition, and quietly turned the bag and its
contents to where they found them, and re-
placed the sleeper's clothes upon him.
When a reporter tried to interview tho man
and endeavored to learn something of his life
in the past few years, he declined to commu-
nicate anything.
He cried like child when told how his
right name and former position were ascer-
tanned, and with tears trickling down his
cheeks said
For Gods sake, sir, don't publish my de-
generation, or my name, at least, if you are
determined to say anything about it. 1t is
enough that know myself how low have
become. viii you promise me that much p
1t will do no good, but win do my friends a
great deal of harm, as fortunately they think
died in South America, where went at the
close of the war;"
Intemperance and the gambling table, he
said, had wrought his ruin.

Gen. Garfield is good campaigner, and a
year or two ago assisted in campaign in
New Hampshire. At Nashua be had the
good fortune to have a large number of SOL
diers in his audience, whom he brought to
their feet for an outburst of enthusiastic
cheers by saying :" If any soldier is in doubt
how to vote, let him 60 from this place to his
Preside let him take down the trusty rifle
that he carried in the thickest of the fight,
place 1t to his shoulder, aud with steady eye
and fixed purpose, seriously inquire, how do
you vote, old friend ," 1t is to the credit Of
General Garfield that he always voted as he
fought.

POETRY.
The BORDER LAND.


In feshy weakness as ahed lie,
And through the easement catch the gentle swing
OF emerald boughs against the sapphire sky,
And list the sweet wild birds their yespers sing.
Ihave no wish but my tired soul to lay
Upon the bosom of the Good and Great
To told my hands In meek content and say,
We'll ifthou bid'st to come, we'll ITO wait"
One word, Forgive" embraces all past years,
With praise Tor present gifts my heart runs DER,
While through the mist ofsilent, tranquil tears
Cleans the fair vision OF a golden door
To greet me there my lost angels nett
Am SO soon to share their pure delight
Harki soft voice responsive saith, Not yet.
" Go back once more simple child to school
The worlds wide battle school of toll and heat;
Follow no law but Christ's most loving rule,
And bring each day new trophies 10 His feet.
Some selfish aim subdued, dark passion slain,
Some sweet forgiveness of a bitter wrong,
Some tender solhce of brothers. pain,
Some sorrow brayely borne In duty strong.
And aye the more yos, wrestle on to know,
And, Knowing We the pa.h the Master trod,
Your all of hope in lowliest homage throw
Upon the mercy Of perfect Gou."
All yesi When sickness unto death goes by,
The border land should be holy place
glorious mount OF pause, ,twixt earth and sky,
Whose finer airs give souls deeper grace.
SO be II mine henceforth In chastened mood
To wear my heightened years forgetting never
The Pisgah height where this night have Stood
And glimpsed affair the home beyond the river,

THE NEW PORK SUN ON THE DEM
OCRATTO NOMINATION.

xHH Nv Il w A OAn 81 " O4t A LII D114H~
OCRA1TO NOMINATION..
AS the New York San is the leading Dem
ocratic paper of the country, its utterances in
regard to the Democratic nomination for
President are worthy of attention.
At the opening of the Cincinnati Conven-
tion, it remarked:
"Said the astute and venerable Thurlow
Weed to Telegram reporter yesterday
tEitter the Democrats must gsoe up the fraud,
or they must nominate TILDEN.'
This is the simple truth of the situation.
IL Mr. Tilden is nominated, a wronged and
insulted party, containing great majority of
the voters of the United States. is afforded an
opportunity to vindicate the cause of popular
government. If the fraud by which Hayes
was placed in power be not rebuked by the
denomination and reelection of Tilden, then
the fact is established that the Democratic
party is too vacillating and uncertain to be de-
pended upon for the defence and preservation
of the rights of the people.
g 1t would be as great mistake to abandon
Tilden now as it would have been to abandon
Washington in the time of the American
Revolution"
Again, ON the second day of the Convention
it quoted Thurlow Weeds remark and said
Either the Democrats must give up the
fraud issue or nominate Tilden.
And if the Democrats do not nominate Mr..
Tilden they do relinqush the fraud issue
the strength of their canvass.
Tilden, Principle and Victory, or somebody
else, no issue and defeat
Which?

The religion of to- day needs more than
anything else strong infusion of the divine
and Biblical element. 1t has become weak,
faccid prattling. Il says too many sweet.
soft, pretty things to tickle the ear and catch

and spirit Of Elijah to say strong, deep, pow

In Germany If a boy is caught smoking he

anxious about the effects of tobacco upon

and in order to rectify in some measure the

punished by fine and imprisonment.
