cannot disbelisve them when they
say that Hancock treated the men

THE impudence Of the democratic
press-the contempt which it mani
tests for public intelligence-chal-
lenges our admiration. Ia report
ing the results of so-called elections
recently held in the south, which
everybody knows were simply
frauds on gigantic scale, the press
has the audacity to speak of them
as democratic victories. We accept
the report. The party is fraud,

n.ent to the hopes and expectations

Bu, it would be pnerile to accept
the resalt as cause for dependency
There has been falling off in the
Republican vote, but it is by no
means certain that the Democrats
and Gleeubsckers have carried the
state. The contest is very close, SO
lose that, until the returns Of the
remote interior towns are received,
the result can hardly be declared,
and the Democratic gains reported
are such ~ few country towns
might easily counterbalsnce. While
that sweeping decisive victory
which every Republican hoped for
has not iseen gained. there is yet nc
Eouud dor rushing to the conclusion
that &c have suffered . total defeat
The complete returns may show the
loss Of Maine, but even the loss oil
the State election in Msine cannot
Of itself bring defeat 10 the National

The Sabbath.

In tho comDission, recorded by
Matthew, Jes&s commanded the
apostles to teach those who were
made disciplsA "oU MinQs" thst he
had commanded them--to teach.
Aud to enable them 70 do this, he
promised, aud At the proper time
sent. the Holy Spirit to bring all his
teaching to their remembrance, and
to lead them into "oNtruth.' One
Of two ohings must certainly be true:
LIST. The apostles did teach the call
things" commanded; or. I'd. They
did not. 1.-THE Grst proposition be
true, whatever the apostles did not
teach, Jesus did not wish them to
tesch; il the second. they were
either false to their Master, OF the
Holy Spirit failed to bring his teach
ing to their remembrance, as Jesus
promised. 1t will be generally con-
ceded that the apostles did not be-
tray their trust, snd that the Holy
Spirit did briug oil the teachings Of
their Master to their remembrance.
I now proceed to inquire: lst. Did
the apostles ever tesch any man to
keep the Sabbath I'd. Did they
during their entire ministry, ever
warn any one sgaiust breaking the
Sabbath? Sd. Did they ever charge
any one with breaking the Sabbath!
4. Die they ever in any way or
manne either by teaching or ex-
ample, admit the possibility OF break.
ing the Sabbath To all Of these
questions there can be but one
answer. The apostles never did
teach any one to keep the Sabbath,
never warned any one against break
ing it, never charged any one with
breaking 1t, a.d never in any man
ner, taught, or admitted it to be
possible to break it. Thea the
keeping OF the Sabbath was not q
psrt Of the "all things that Jesus
required the apostles to teach, for
they never did teach it. Sabbath
keepers tell us that during the min
istry OF the apostles it was 80 well
understood that the Sabbath was TO
be kept that there was no need to
mention ii! No danger that any
| one would break it during the
apostolic age or for all time to come
And yet under the law, when the
sabbath Was in force, Che Jews to
vhom alone it Was given, were re-
pessedly warned agains. Sabbath

AMBER SUGAR CANE.

As the time is approaching for planting
cane seed, We desire to call the attention Of
farmers to this valuable variety Of cane. We
believe its value is but little known, and not
fully appreciated when known, because It's
value for animal food is not understood.
While the cane will make superior article
of syrup, is value is not limited 10 this use.
The grower Of the cane may not only harvest
his syrup and sugar crop, but at the same
time harvest at least twenty bushels Of seed
ger acre, which is as rich and nutritious for
feeding cattle and horses, ss common field
corn, and equal to any grain for fatening
hogs. Besides i,s value for these purposes, ii
has the merit of growing and producing
crop in drouthy seasons, as well a. Egyptian
corn, which lie a variety of the cane specier.
We suggest to our farmers the importance Of
considering the value Of this product with
view to its culture, not only for its saccharine
qualities, but value for animal food.-Kansas
