"DEFosILHED PIECE of dema-
goguery" is the chaste and decent
epithet which the Point Pleasant
Monitor Republican, applies to our
fellow-townsman who is spoken of

are many men of thirty who would
be better off if they had his energy
and vitality. T. ~

FROM THE way in which the CAM
paign has been started throughout
the country this warm weather, it is
pretty evident that politics will be
lively during the summer.

THE DEMOCRATS are charging
Garfield with crookedness in pave
ment contracts and the Credit Mo-
belier. And the Republicans are
raking up the Surratt business on
Hancock. No man could be nomi-
mated for the presidency who would
not be assailed in some way.

The Old Methodist's Tetimony.


The Old Methodist Tetimony.
BY PHI. J. BULL.
with you still,
Though standin' like an old Lighthouse upon a west
side hill;
The music has gone out you know; the timbers have
decayed;
But sunshine on 'em's just as warm as when they
first was laid.
Almost hundred years have passed since was
born, and then
,Twas only fifteen further on, and was born again
I've seen the forest melt away; nice houses have
been reared;
The world has quite outstripped the church. I'm
very much afeard.
They used to tell a Methodist as far as eye could
Scan-
No gewgaws on woman then. no dicky on man
But now our congregations are SO much by fashion
led,
They just look like rainbow wrecked upon posy-
bed.
The circuitridefs ofthem days weer not SO fine and
grand;
Thew took degrees haulin' logs and clearn up the
land:
But when one OF EN- rlz to preach, tell you we
could smell
The fragrant flowers Of heaven, and the Sitting
smoke Of hell
We had an ''amen corncr,' too, beside the pulpit
stairs,
And while he raised his sermon-ends, we lifted
with our prayers;
We threw in many a loud ''Thank GodH' and
weren't obliged to 60,
To give the Lord the glory, to classroom down
below.
The grand old quarterly-meetins were to all the
brethren dear,
Just like four green GASES in the desert of the year
The people focked from miles around; my wife
would take score,
And after supper they would pray, and sleep upon
the floor.
know the worlds a-movin' on, as Calico said
For now I rent cushioned pew to hear an essay
read;
But when through stained-glass windows the sun
throws blue and gold,
cannot help a-thnkn' how the glory shone of old .
They call me an "old FOSSIL" and "a relic of the
past
'fogy" and "croaker' too, but this won'talways
last;
tread trenholm isthmus where two seas of glory
rol
And soon the past and future bliss will swallow up
my soul.
And when reach fair Canaan, the Lord will doubt
less see
That mansions in the city will not do for such as
me;
So he will let go among the oldfashioned saints
think,
rivers brink.
