Creeds.

The peace and prosperity of the
religious world has been impaired
by criminous controversy among
partisans about the merits of their
respective creeds. The great aim
of each party has consisted in an eff
fort to show that their creed was
nearest like the Bible. Men fire.
quently congratulate themselves be-
cause of the near approach to the
Bible. When speaking Of the mer-
its Of their creed they say cit is
founded upon the Bible" We in
vltesthe attention of all who admire
the display of wisdom found in hu.
man creeds to the following:
/. Any creed containing more
than the Bible. is Objectionable, be-
cause it does contain more than is
in the Bible.
2. Any creed containing less than
the Bible, is Objectionable, because
it does contain less than the Bible.
8. Any creed differing from the
Bible, is Objectionable, because it
differs from the Bible.
4. Any creed precisely like the
Bible is useless, because we have
the Bible.

An Eloquent Passage.

The following was from the
pen of George D. Prentice: ut
can not be that earth is mans
abiding place. 1t can not be
that our life is a mere bubble
cast up by eternity to float a
moment on It's waves and then
sink into nothingness. Else
why is it that the GLORIOUS as
pirations which leap like angels
from the temple of ones heart
are forever wandering unsatls-
fed? Why is it that the stars
that hold their festival around
the midnight throne are set
above the grasp of our limited
faculties, forever hooking us
with their unapproachable glo
ry? And, finally, why is i
that bright forms of human
beauty presented to our view
are taken from us, leaving TIN
thousand streams of affection
to flow back in Alpine torrent
upon our hearts There is
realm where the rainbow neV
er fades; where the stars vii
be spread out before us like tn
islands that slumber in tn
ocean; and where the beautiful
being which pass before us Xix
shadows will stay in our pres
ence forever"

And center there, are better than gold"
The home Of childhood ever re-
mains fresh in memory, whether that
home was one Of Christianity and
virtue, or one Of wickedness and
misery. 1t had great influence in
moulding our characters, in prepar-
ing US for the duties of life, and
what we are may be attributed to
the teachings and influence of home.
And yet there are many who have
had good Christian mothers and
homes who became wicked, intern
perate, and dissipated. The mo-
ments that should have been spent
a. home obtaining knowledge and
wisdom. were trifed away and was {.
ed with evil associates, IN idle con-
versation, and at places Of wicked.
ness, while some who have had bad
homes, through the influence of
Christian people, at school and else
where, have become good and great.
But woe to those who live in squalid
wretchedness. who never receive in.
struction in virtue and truth, and
who know nothing Of religion. There
are many snoh all over our land ;
and of what benefit will they be to
the nation? they will only help fill
our penitentiaries, prisons and aims
houses.
Then let us strive to make the
homes Of our land what they should
be, the most attractive, pleasant
and beautiful places on earth. May
they be foretaste of the heavenly
home.-Florence d. Thompson.

What a City

Most of our ideas of heavenly
glory come to US, not By comparison,
but by contrast. The things we
here feel, and fear, and suffer, and
lament, will be unknown there. We
suffer pain; - There shall be no
more pain" We feel hunger and
thirst; = They shall hunger no
more, neither shall they thirst any
more" Here men die, but There
shall be no more death in that new
earth, when "the former things are
passed away"
Abraham was pilgrim. He had
no settled home. Now he was in
Mesopotamia, then he dwelt in Char
ran; now he is in Canaan, moving
hither and thfther; again we find
him in Egypt. or in Philistia; ever
on the move, packing and uDpack-
ing, making new aequaintances, and
meeting new dangers; never owning
a foot of land till he bought a place
to bury his wife, and meyer finding q
permanent resting place until he
found it in Machpelah's cave. Now
through all this pilgrimage how
natural it was for him TO look for
ward to a resting-place, home,
city which hath foundations, whose
builder and maker is God.
He was a stranger here, but ht
was going home! His pilgrimage
would soon be over. He saw The
promises afar off and hailed them
and confessed himself a stranger anC
pilgrim on the earth.
As his children are like him, "pll
grims'' and strangers on the EARTH
I the came city is ever before them a
their harbor and their home. The.
that say such things declare plainl.
that they seek a country; wherefor
God is not ASHAMED to be calle'
their God. for he hath prepared 70
them a city" How often hav
Godss homesick children sung of,
Jerusalem the golden,"s
and again of
" Jerusalem my happy home;
Name ever dear to me-"
and how many dim eyes have bright
ened, and how many sad hearts hav
leaped for joy, while thinking AM

eternal home,
What a city! In the language o
DIR. Guthrie
IA city not built with hands, no
hoary with the years of time; cit,
whose inhabitants no census ha
numbered; a city through who's
streets rushes no tide of business, no
nodding hearse creeping slowly witt
its burden to the tomb city with
out griefs or graves, without sins o
sorrows, without births or burials
without marriages or MORNINGS;
city which glories in having Jesu
for its king, angels for its guards
saints for citizens; whose walls art
salvation, and whose gates ar
praise. FIX.

A creed must contain more than
the Bible, less than the Bible, differ
from it, or be precisely like it. Ii a
creed cannot be defended upon one
or more of these propositions, of
what use is it? The Bible contains
all that ought to be believed and
obeyed in order to the salvation Of
men. There is, then. no necessity
for anything additional. Being per-
feet, it thoroughly furnishes US unto
all good works. The Apostolic
Church for the FIRST three hundred
yearsof its existence had no law for
the regulation of its affairs but the
Bible. Human creeds have ever
served to create and perpetuate di-
vision.
At best, they are but the reason
ings of uninspired men on the scrip
lures, and are wholly without divine
authority. Their history shows that
their tendency has been to create
and perpetuate division among the
people Of God. If men would aban-
don human creeds. and acknowledge
no rule Of life but the Bible. all the
partyism in the religious world
would perish, and the Lords people
would flourish in the strength OF
their unity. Such an order of af-
fairs is certainly desirable. Every
! Christian should labor for the de
struction of partyism. We should
| ever remember that our Lord pray
ed for the union of His people,
Evangelist at Work.

Peace.

The believers peace is like
a river for continuance. Look
at it, rising as little brook
among the MOSES of a lone
green hill; by and by it leaps
as a rugged cataract; anon it
flows along that fair valley
where the red deer wanders
and the child loves to play
with hum of pleasant music
the brook turns the village
mill. Hearken to its change
full hum as it ripples DER its
pebbly bed, or leaps adown the
wheel or sports in eddies where
the trees bend down their
branches to kiss the current.
Anon the streamlet has become
a river, and bears upon its
food fun many a craft. Then
its bosom swells, bridges with
noble arches span it, and,
grown vaster still, it becomes
q stream broad enough to be
an arm of old father ocean,
pouring its water-foOds into
the mighty main. The river
abides the lapse of ages; it is
no evanescent, moving cloud,
or transient rain food, but in
all its stages it is permanent.
MEN may come, and men may go,
But flow on forever"
Evermore, throughout all
generations, the river speedeth
to its destined place. Such IS
the peace Of the Christian. He
has always reason for comfort.
He has not a consolation like
swollen torrent, which is
dried up under the hot sun of
adversely; but peace is his
rightful possession at all times.
Ever is the river in its place.
And even thus, come night,
come day, come sickness, come
health, come what will, the
peace of God which passeth all
understanding will keep the
Christians heart and mind,
t through Jesus Christ Sturgeon.

The Christian as well as the
sinner may ask, "Men and
brethren, what shall we do?"
Brother, if you have clearer
apprehensions of the truth, you
have larger responsibilities.
Resting in apostolic faith will
not procure salvation at last.
Up! up! and be doing! Upon
your knees, cry to God and ask,
What must I-even l, do to
be saved ?"-Ex.
The Morristown gazette. [volume] (Morristown, Tenn.) 1867-1920, 1880-11-03

Christians, do not sigh for
rest, it awaits you in the grave;
nor for wealth, it awaits you
beyond the grave; nor for
friends, they have gone on be
fore; nor for anything; for
"ALL ARE YOURS; and ye are
Ghrist's; and Christ is Gods"

sharp and ringing epigram, these seem to us the features which tend to become too infre- quent in Punch, and which are not replaced altogether by parody, however good, or jest, however humorous. Weseem to want, though we were of those who found fund of laugh ter in Happy Thoughts and ''Mokanna," little more herrold and little less Bur- nand MT. Taylor did not contribute this needed flavor, partly, perhaps, because he was so good-natured, which Jerrold, with all defer ence to his biographers, was not, phil anthrophy not being, as they fancy, identical Punch well on it's feet, still in the forefront, though moving even more strictly than ever along the old lines; and that was considera- ble thing to do. He had thorough appre- citation of good work, too, though it was the tendency of his mind to prefer good work of an accustomed kind, and possessed in himself fund of genial and sometimes sly humor, which he hardly cultivated sufficiently. What was lacking to make him a great humorist was probably touch of the insanity or aban- donment often visible in such men. There was deep stratum of solid common-sense in MT. Taylor. He regulated the political tone of Punch very wisely, for example, keeping 1t liberal, as most Englishmen are, resisting sore pressure to be Jingo when Jingoism was rampant, but allowing fair play to individual tendencies, so that sometimes it was hard to say which party Punch in his heart consider ed the ridiculous one of the two, and so that, though both parties were often momentarily incensed, neither deserted the paper. He was himself steady liberal being outside his work a thorough humanitarian, who hated to see human beings suffer, and believed m rights, though not necessarily equal rights, for all men, and had in him a fund of benev- olence which sometimes disturbed his judicial impartiality The thousand friends he pos sessed, and who knew him better than we did,
 must, we think, regret that he did not get the best out of himself in some one department {; but he did an immensity of work of very diff ferent kinds very much better than most people could do it, and was, when it was done, thoroughly sincere and humble mind ed man. He will be missed, and justly.

HIaking Nitro GlycerIne.
rFrom the orlean Times.l


 The apitator is lead reservoir three feet deep and three feet in circumference, capable of holding one thousand and five hundred pounds of acid and one hundred and eighty seven and one-haIf pounds of sweet lycerine. In the interior of the agitator a lead pipe coils around the edge several times and through this the water is kept running con stantly while the mixing process is being car ried on. Another lead pipe leads from the top to the bottom of the agitator, and at the top of this pipe is placed large tub contain ing the sweet glycerine. The faucet on the tub is so arranged that stream about the size of 8 straw is kept constantly running A large paddle wheel, revolved by steam, is placed in the center of the agitator and the acid placed in the reservoir.
 Now commences the danger. The paddle wheel is set in motion, the acid begins to re- volve around at rapid rate and the sweet glycerine begins to run in and mix with the acid. Should the sweet glycerine run in too fast a fire ensues and the oil has to be cut of, the engine run faster and the fire is subdued.- After the one hundred and eighty seven and one-half pounds of sweet glycerine has been thoroughly mixed with the acid it is drawn of into what is known as the drowning tank, which is simply twenty eight barrel tank containing water, with one inlet and two out lets. As the compound comes from the agi- tator the glycerine sinks to the bottom of the receptacle while the refuse acid comes to the surface and runs through lead pipe and of on the ground. The ro-glycerine amount ing tpabout three hundred and seventy-five pounds is then drawn off in buckets and placed in a small wooden receptacle known as the wash tank This tank is surmounted by @ barrel into which water and steam are introduced; from this barrel the water runs down into the tank and thoroughly purifes the compound This operation continues about two hours, when the water is with drawn and the compound treated to an alkai bath, which lasts about two hours. It is then drawn out in pai1s, filtered and canned, when it is ready for market.
 When the sweet glycerine goes into the acid it is about the consistency of syrup and at the close it much resembles lard oil. After the explosive is canned it is carried to the magazine, in which large iron safe, capable of holding three thousand pounds of the compound is located, there to remain until purchaser arrives, which is usually not very long. The market value of o-glycerine at present is seventy-fve cents pound at the factory or eighty cents delivered. It is a fact, probaly not generally known, that the glycerine thieves which infest the country are the most expert cracksmen ann the most persistent in their efforts to rob maA0 lines. It is found necessary to use the most prov ed combination locks to prevent thefS and then reckless fellow will get into them, not withstanding he stands in the very presence of death
