s. James, the son of Zebedee, is called also
8, James the Greater, to distinguish him from
the other James, whom be may have exceeded
in age, or perhaps only in respect Of come pc
culiar honors and favors confefred upon him
by our Lord. He, along with Peter and
John, was selected to attend the Saviour in
some Of the more intimate transactions Of His
life, from which the rest we're excluded. And
he was honored to be the first of all tho Apos-
tolic band to suffer actual martyrdom for
Christ. Herod "killed James, the brother of
John, with the sword, " when he stretched
forth his hand to vex certain of the Church, !"
which seems to indicate this Apostle as being
very prominent in the Church, since Persecu
ton, like Death, ever Stoves shining mark !"
Thus James "drank indeed of that cup"
which his Master had drunk of, as be long
time before, with John, had said, I'VE are
able" The retribution for this crime fell
speedily. upon Herod Agrippa, whom the
Angel of the Lord smote, and his death was
one of horrible and disgusting tortures. s..
Luke ACTS xiii gives brief account the
Jewish historian Josephus furnishes fuller
details Of Herod's fearful end.

The Frenchtown Independent says that
the old pump, on Harrison street, below
Fourth, in front OF the residence of DIR. w. G.
Williams, that for many years had furnished
water to both man and beast, in that section
of the town, was removed on Tuesday.
The pump which was an old fashioned log
pump, formerly did service in the yard at the
County House, at Pennington, and was re-
moved from that place to Frenchtown, by the
late S. B. Hudnit, while he was the owner Of
the hotel property, some twenty-five years
ago.

We understand that an effort is being
made to have the Grand Army Encampment
held in Pennington this Summer, and that a
committee was in town last Saturday to in
quire into the facilities to be afforded and see
whether the Fair Grounds could be obtained
for the purpose. There is one thing about
this Army Encampment The town that
once has the experience always avoids it the
second time. If Pennington is right smart
it will not encourage the project. The place
for the big yearly beer drink and pandemo-
mum is in ten acre field twenty miles from
anywhere.
We learn as we go to press that the Com
mittee above referred to decided not to hold
the encampment here, no suitable grounds
being accessible .-Hunterdon Democrat.

CLOSING OF THE MUTUAL BUrDINs
AND LOAN AssocIATIoN.--This week num-
bers Of First Warders have been made
been made particularly happy from the fact
that on Saturday evening last at the regular
monthly meeting of the above named associa-
ton it was announced that that was the last
payment expected from the stockholders and
that the association was ready to settle and
cancel all mortgages, and pay over
the ready cash to all who were entitled to it.
This announcement is great relief to many
who for the past long eleven and a quarter
years have been striving and toiling hard to
save. Parties have been paying from 80 to
$34 per month to save and clear their homes
and properties from debt. To this class it is
certainly great relief. The very air they
breathe will seem purer and they will expert
ence that elevation that man should feel
when he can say to himself II own my home
and am clear Of all debts to my fellow man."
There is another class of stockholders who
looked upon the Association as a saving in
stitution. In this class there are parties that
draw sums varying from $500 to $1,000 a.
piece. We hear Of one particularly jolly,
good natured fellow mot married) who was SO
elated with the quantity of clear cash due him
that he drew the whole amount due him-$600
in gold. He pocketed it and has been priding
himself in displaying it around to his many
friends by the hand full, only to make their
eyes water, and to wish and yearn that it was
only theirs or that they had invested in the
Mutual Building 8 Loan Association in its
early days.

Low wArER.-Ths water ID the Delaware
at the present time is quite low, owing to the
dry weather. To-day "Wednesday the canal
company propose to erect temporary dams at
Wells Falls across the river channel, to back
the water sufficiently for ferrying, as the
water is too low for loaded boats crossing the
river. Tomorrow the company expect to
put in temporary dams at Bulls Island, to in
crease the quantity Of water in tho canal
feeder, as the mills on the water power in
this city are feeling the effects of low water.

PRINCETON s LIQUOR WAR.--The prosecu-
tions for illegal liquor selling In Princeton
have not come to an end quite yet, and pro-
badly win not SO long as offenders can be
caught. Fl. d. Besenbury, druggist, was
one of the offenders and escaped from pro-
tracted sojourn in the County Jail through
ha6eas corpus and q defective commitment.
He was again arrested on Monday and was to
have been tried at seven o'clock on the same
evening by the Mayor, but was allowed to
visit Trenton to consult with his attorney.
The consultation was much longer than was
expected, Mr. Bosenbury bad not returned for
trial yesterday forenoon, and the opinion pre-
that he has gone to more congenial cline.

A WATCH WITH HIsToRy.-M essrs
Bailey, Banks & Biddle. the jewellers, of
Philadelphia, in the course of their business,
lately came across an old watch which was
purchased of their predecessors, the former
firm of Bailey & Co., by Henry Clay. Mr..
Clay presented it to Hon. James G. Jones, of
Tennessee, who twice defeated James K. Polk
for the Governorship of that State, aud was
afterwards U. s. Senator. One morning in
the Senate Chamber lady friend of Senator
Jones, who knew the history of the watch,
jestingly asked him for it, when he with old
time gallantry Immediately handing it to her
saw no more of it till ak months afterwards
he received it at his home in Memphis by ex-'
press, ID having meanwhile been elegantly re-
cased by Bailey & Co. Governor Jones died
in 1869 and the watch is now in Possession of
his son-in-law, residing in Washington, D.
c., who states that it is still perfect time
keeper.

OUR RELIGIOUS COLUMN.
OLD CHURCH CALENDAR.

July H. Fifth Sunday after Trinity.
July "a. Sixth Sunday after Trinity.
July %. S. James the Apostle.
1t is commonly said that Ireland's great
missionary, s. Patrick, made use of the three
leaved Shamrock, Wood SorreD to prove the
doctrine of tile Trinity. But proof 1t could
not DO, nor an explanation, of that which does
not admit of explanation, and has no proof
beside the declaration of the Divine Word. 1t
is in some sort AN illustration of the theolog-
ical truth, Ihree-ta- One. Perhaps we might
still better call it reminder of the truth, like
many another symbol in Nature and in Art.
Such, for instance, is the equilateral triangle I;
or the architectural trefoil, carved in stone; or
that more elaborate design, often put in
Church windows and painted on Church walls
"a triangle of equal sides, with small circle
enclosing each angle, and fourth in the
middle of the triangle the central circle
contains the great name, GoD those at the
angles are inscribed, respectively FATHER,
Son, Holy SPIRIT: A narrow band running
from each of these to the central circle has
written on il, is and each side fthe triangle
is Marked similarly, is NOT. There is thus
formed very expressive and complete
Trinity Legend that addresses the mind
through the eye, and very strikingly sets
forth the Oneness of God, and the equality,
yet distinctness of the Divine Persons. 1t is
read thus The Father is God the Son is
God the Holy Spirit is God. The Father is
not the Son I; the Son is not the Holy Spirit !;
the Holy Spirit is not the Father.
Such sensible helps are useful to make ideas
more definite and fasten them in the memory.
There is need of caro- in their use, however,
lest our theology become mechanical or ma
terial In it's tone. 1t is in part due to this
fault, that some thinking men have been
pushed to an opposite extreme, of denying
the three-fold Personality Of God, and holding
the error called Unitatiansm. "God is
spirit" We must not admit into our minds
any notion contradictory Of this Hear, o
Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord and
thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy
heart, and all thy mind, and all thy soul, and
all thy strength" This, said our Saviour,
is the first of all the Commandments. And
If we keep 1t, Heartily, intelligently, sincerely,
earnestly,--the truth and beauty and glory
and comfort of the Doctrine of the Holy
Trinity will more and more take hold of us.
In our experience, 10 our consciousness, He,
the One only God, will yet be to us Maker,
Saviour. Sapctifer--

Thine adorable, true and only Son;
