Seek Riches.

Reader, i should like you to
be very rich; perhaps would
like it yourself. But the riches
you want are probably not the
riches that l mean; l should like
you to be rich in grace, rich in
faith and rich in heavenly treas
ure., Oh, seek these riches. /
am very sorry for those who have
nothing but gold, silver, bank
notes and land, and no grace,
They are not truly rich. [ feel
deeply those who have no
better portion than this world
can give them, and no place in
that Kingdom that cannot be re-
moved. In reality they are very
poor. Their treasures only last.
for a few years; they die and.car-
ny nothing with them beyond
the grave; they rise again in a
world where money is of no use,
and all who die without grace
will be paupers forever. Oh,
they are very poor! Take a
sensible view of this important
question this very day. Seek
durable riches, a treasure that
cannot be taken from you, a city
which hath lasting foundations;
give yourself to the Lord Jesus
Christ, and seek that incorrupt-
ible crownHe is,ready to bestow.
Take his yoke upon you and
learn of Him. Come away from
a world that can never really
satisfy You, and from sin that
will bite like a serpent ut last.
Come to the Lord Jesus as a
lowly sinner and He viii receive
you, pardon you, give you His
renewing spirit, fill you with
peace. Thissshall give you more
real comfort than the world has
ever done. There is a gulfin
your heart that nothing but
peace Of Christ can fill. Enter
IN and share the great privileges.
Reader, if you want riches, |
point you to the riches of Christ,
a free, full, immediate supply of
wealth. If you want cheap
goods, good sugar and coffee
and such other .necessaries of
life, as needed in this country, |
point youto the cheap cash store
of Z j. A. LuMPKIN.

War to the Knife, and the

our mammoth stock of Mems,
Boys and ChiIdren's hats from
the house of Wis, Murphy and

tractive place for close hard cash

s'When civic dudgeon first grew high,
And men fell out, they know not why;
When hard words, jealousies and fears
Set folks together by the ears"
Then some worse, others thought it very
funny 6As-e% PAS
When cheap goods were wanted they
~ bought them of Murray.

We have noticed that most of
our fishermen carry a bottle with
them on their piscatoiial excur-
sions; we have also noticed that
topers who don't go fishing carry
a bottle sometimes. Is it posi-
bic that a philosophical investi-
cation into the natural causes
thereof would disclose an affinity
between the cases.

Last Saturday evening about
g O'Clock the largest hail fell ev-
er seen in Fayetteville. The
storm came from the northwest
and died out in sight of Fayette-
vile. The whirling clouds and
roaring winds on their, approach
showed that the fiercest of the
storm was spent before reaching
us. Hail stones as large as her
and goose eggs were common:
a few measured 81 and 81 inches
in circumference. 6 Glass cover
ings of flower pits and hot hous-
es suffered, and four of the new
windows 1 in the Cumberland
church were cracked.

The Albany Erening Journal, whose pres
cnt editor, George Dawson, is known fan
and wide as an enthusiastic angler, has the
following pleasant article, appropos of the
opposition made by Senator Edmunls 10 an
appropriation to improve" some mountain
streams 10y dcploring the disturbance it would
bring 10 the harmless trout
II is to the honor Of the Vermont states
man that he is not forgetful of the harmless
trout" Indifference in this direction in the
past has resulted in greater mischief than can
he expressed by figures, Not only have
prolific trout streams been destroyed by i'm
provcments of doubtful utility, but our old
time salmon rivers have been depopulated by
the same processes. If the knowledge Of to-
day had been possessed by the statesmen of
sixty years ago and used as il should he to-
day, our own State would have been as rich
i'll her fisheries as she is in her other sources
of wealth
Those who are acquainted with Senator
EdmInds's tastes and habits are not surprlscd
that he takes co9nzance Of the effect these
proposed improvements VIII rave upon the
harmless trout" which have their haunts in
thrs,. threatened mountain streams. He is
one of the most ihvc,crate and cnlhusiis-
tic anglers in the country. lie has for many
years been regular visitor of the salmon
rivers of Quebec and New Brunswick; and
one reason for his seeming Indifference
whether he shall or shall not come in as the
dark horse" for the nomination is that the
obligations of the campaign might deprive
him of his usual Summer fascinating pass
time. As we said Of Vice President Wheeler
five years ago so We say of Senator Edmunds
to-day. we doubt whether lac would consent
10 accept the highest Office in the gift of the
people if by doing 50 he would be deprived
