The Revised New Testament

An American edition of this long
looked for work is announced by the
enterprising and reliable house Of Hub
bard Brothers, of Cincinnati. 1t is to
be an exact reproduction of the Eng
lish edition, and from the we'll known
character of the house, accuracy and a
really excellent book may confidently
be expected. A special attraction of
this edition we learn is that it will con-
tain complete history Of the whole
revision movement, the reasons for it,
the errors of the old version, the plan
of the work, with sketches of the dis
tinguished men engaged in it, etc. AS
the price of this edition, containing
both the Testament and history, is
placed extremely low, it seems certain
to become decidedly the most popular,
because the most desirable, edition is
sued, at a positively low price,

splinter which pierced his hand some

Mr.. Kuykendall was regarded by
his large circle of friends as one of the
most consecrated ministers, and one of
the best men of his church, nor was
this enviable character confined alone
to his own church, but was largely
shared by those of other demon.
nations who we're acquainted with
him. He has for some years past
preached at McMinnville and to other
congregations of his church in this apd
adjoining counties with great acceptance
and usefulness and his death is felt as
an irreparable loss among those whom
he has served so faithfully. He wa
buried at Spencer on last SUNDAY

Jackson stood with heads uncocer-

while their band played memoir
ial overture the Knights in COM
mand moved forward and placed
at the base of the monument a
wreath of evsrgreens and flowers.
This tribute from the New En-
CHAMBERS to the great Confederate
General, occurring as it did on Me
mortal day, moved some of the
spectators to tears. A leading
Virginian remarked: This will
do more TO restore complete fra
ternity among the people North
and South than all the platforms
that politicians will frame during
the present year.

The Good Old Times We
Read About.
(From WashingtOn Star.

In noting the difference in the
style in which senator's and repre-
sentatives now live in Washington
as compared with that thirty years
ago, an old resident tells an anec-
dote of interest. He says that at
that time it was not uncommon for
very worthy members Of either
house of Congress to occupy rooms
over stores. A very swell gentle
man was elected to Congress whom
we will call Baker, and he set up
grand establishment here. He was
greatly shocked to find that his init
mate friend Cooper, although a very
rich man, lived over a grocery store,
and one day in addressing a note to
him wrote: Hon. Mr.. Cooper over
Smiths grocery store" But Coop
er was not to be put down thus, so,
remembering the situation of Bakers
grand house, he addressed his
letter: "Hon. George Augustus
Baker, opposite Foy's livery stable"

With that he handled a mani
fold soiled scrap on which l could
at first see nothing. At length
deciphered in rude disjointed let
terslhe two words, DEAR PAPA. )"
He had discovered it in the play
house of his little daughter, who
died only few days ago. Some
time when, in the midst Of play,
her little heart had turned toward
him she had scrawled these two
words-and then having borne
testimony Of her love, threw the
paper away.
