A Spoiled Sermon.

A Yarmouth Me- preacher, while H.
Illustrating the need and efficacy OF prayer,
drew an Illustration from his ownexpell-
ence. He was out ON a lake i'll boat,
when by mischance, he lost both oars,
The wind was rising, night was coming
on, and he was in imminent danger OF
being swamped and finding watery
grave. What could he do ? Evidently,
nothing of himself; so he knelt down
and prayed long and fervently for de-
lverance. He placed himself In the
hands of the Lord, and so was saved
So he passed from one thing to another,
and at last the sermon was finished. he
raised his hands to pronounce the bane,,
diction. The audience stood with bowed
heads, waiting for the gracious words
when old Captain Sweetser, of Nortli
Yarmouth, a rugged old sea-dog, crled
out: Say, Mr.. Preacher, | want you
to tell me how you got ashore ?" Inc
audience was still no more, but broke
into a roar. and it was fully five minutes
before the minister could explain that q
man saw him from the shore and pu'
out in another boat and took him on
But the effect for good of one sermon was
spoiled.

The Death Struggle Between Chill and
Peru-An Earthquake Intensifes
the Situation.

A letter from Valparaiso, November II,
says: The cause of the present strife is now
clearly defined 90 have originated In the reck-
tess abandonment and violent trampling upon
solemn treaties by Peru, affecting valuable
nitrate grounds situated on neutral terri
tory, claimed long since by both parties. and
peacefully compromised by the treaties IN
question. II Is needless to discuss the pros
and cons. now that all Is committed to the
arbitra ment OF the sword suffice 1t to remark
that to me, as foreigner, 1t appeared that
tho proverbial heat OF Castilian blood gained
an aseendancy over calm judgment, precipt-
Eating both sides into an ill-prepared, ILL
advised, and consequently, for long time,
m ill-direeted course OF violent reprlSals.
Since the capture OF the Huascar, however,
early Ia October, success has attended, almost
without break, the Chilian army and navy.
The contest has been bloody and terrible,
both sides having shown daring, courage and
obstinate, persistent resistance. Nor is this
to be wondered at when the race which Is
fighting and the issues OF the strife are con-
Sidered one or other must necessarily go
under, Ii not be blotted out from the roll OF
indep endent republics. The contest Is still
raging on mountain and In deserts, leaving
the tracks OF human blood and misery to
mark It's course.
