Representative Speer OF Georgia, has formally
declared his Independence Of the democratic party

he will never enter another democratic caucus, but
he champions the independent movement, and adj

GOD kSOWETH BEST.

Sometimes, when all Hfe's lessons have been
learned,
And sun and stars foreyermore have set,
The things which our weak judgments here have
spurned-
The things Ger which We grieyed with lashes
wet
viii flash before US out of life's dark night
As stars shine most in deeper tints of blue,
And we shall see how all Gods plans were right
And how what seemed reDroof was love most
true
And we shall see how, when we frown and sigh
Gods plans go on as best for you as NE;
How, when we called he needed not our cry,
Because his wisdom to the end could see.
And even as prudent parents dlsalIOT
Too much Of sweet to craving babyhOod,
So God perhaps, Is keeping from US now
Life's sweetest things because it seemeth good.
And it, sometimes comminged with life's wine
We find the wormwood and rebel and shrink
Be sure a wiser hand than yours or mine
Pours out this portion for our lips to drink.
And if some friend we love Is lying low,
Where human kisses cannot reach his face,
Oh, do not blame the loving Father so,
But bear your sorrow with obedient grace
And you shall shortly know that heightened
breath
Is not the sweetest gift God sends his friend.
And that, sometimes the sable pail of death
Conceas the fairest boon His love can send.
If we could push ajar the gates of life,
And stand within and all Gods workings see.
We could interpret all this doubt and strife,
And for each mystery could find key
But not to-day. Then be content, poor heart,
Gods plans like lilies, pure and white untold.
We must not tear the close-shut leaves apart;
Time will reveal the calyXes Of gold.
And it, through patient toll we reach the land
bnp cd faafr ri 10 ro,t
When we shall clearly know and understand
think that we will say, God knew the best1

Charity VS.. BeneyOIence.

Charity gives, and as often unwisely
as wisely. Benevolence helps, teaches,
suggests-puts people in the way of
helping themselves. We have enough,
if not too much, Of the first; we have
too little of the latter. Waste of aims
is one ofour sins, one, too, which daily
brings its retribution in crowds of wilful
idlers, miserable paupers, mendacious
beggars and pilferers. If only the over
flowing kindness of humanity, which
now expends itself in ill-advised and
promiscuous alms-giving, was utilized
in efforts to teach the poor how to man
age and make the most of what they
earn, and in finding work for them to
do, it would be better for the interest
Of all. Those who have enough of this
worlds goods to feel any obligation
resting upon them to ameliorate
wretched conditions are generally salts
fed with alms-giving. 1t is the easiest
way, and the common thought is psy-
chologized with the power.

The Kind of men Journalists Are.


Having late in life entered into the
journalistic profession, we are natur-
ally anxious to understand what is
the true ethics of the editorial posi-
ton. One of the important questions
To determine is what we may do, and
what we may not do, for money. The
running of newspaper is the only
thing in the world, the single pur-
suit, that has connected with 1t no
mercenary motive, and the editor is
the only human being who at all
times, and on all occasions, rises su-
peFior TO any personal or selfish con-
sideiation. There was a time when
the apostles and early fathers went
out into the world 10 preach the gos-
pei without money and without price.
The time was when, in ancient Rome,
The lawyer served his clients gra;uit-
ously. In the old patriarehial time
there were no salaries attached to the
patriarchial position. Heroes and
warriors serve their country for pa
triotism. Now. in these degenera
days, alas all the preachers of the
gosI el, from the vicar of God, install

and deacons, down. down, all the way

Blassine Without Drills.

An Austrian engineer has discov-
cred new method OF disentegraling
rocks. The chief feature of this sys-
tenn is 10 employ hollow cylinder
like a gaspipe and to place dyna-
mite cartridge. not rs hitherto in n
hole bored into the rock to be blast
ed. but IN the cylinder in question.
The cartridges only touch the surface
OF the rock which il is desired
to shatter. The explosion ofthe dyn-
amite is effected by mHans of electric
ity. and the effect i said to be greater
than than he usual cartridge in a hole
bored in the rock. The rock il shat
tered into fragments SO small that a
fair stream is able 10 wash them away
without help, whereas in the case OF
gun powder the rock is only split mp
in blocks, more or less troublesome
TO remove. The system is calculated
TO effect n saving of fully 10 per cent.
as compared with the old system.
