MISCELLANY.

THE SECOND CoMMANDMENT.-Thes second
commandment is no longer ours in the letter,
for the sculptures and paintings which we
see at every turn are what the second COM
mandment in its letter forbade, and what the
Jews, therefore, never made. Every statue,
every picture, not only in every church, but
in every street or room, is breach OF the let
ter of the second commandment. No Jews
would have ventured under the Mosaic dis
pepsation to have them. When Solomon
made the golden lions and oxen in the Tom
pie, it was regarded as unlawful. The Mo-
hammedan world still observes the second
commandment literally. The Christian world
has certainly set it aside. But in spirit it is
still most important. 1t teaches US that we
must not make God after our likeness or after
any likeness short of the most absolute moral
perfection. Any fancies, any doctrines, any
practices which lead us to think that God is
capricious or unjust or untruthful, or that
he cares for any outward thing compared
with holiness, mercy and goodness-that is
the breach of the Second Commandment in
spirit. Every attempt to purify and exalt
our ideas of God is the keeping of the Second
Commandment in spirit, even although we
live amid pictures and statues and sculptures
of things in heaven and things on earth and
things under the earth. For the spirit is
greater than the letter--the letter killeth, and
the spirit giveth life.-Deam Stanley, in Good
Works

Twenty years ago the steamer Arabian
sank in the Missouri river with six hundred
barrels of whiskey on board. The current of
the river went on changing, and now the
place where the steamer sank is dry land and
the forgotten wreck is buried forty feet deep
in the sand. The other day the man who
owns the place put down a pump, and the
first liquid he found was whiskey in one of

struck, land in the vicinity was held at $475, :

bered about the old wreck and the price fell.

In the wood box and then says the men folks

vantage of confding nature, and make life
harder for the poor tramps.
