An Account of the Conversion
of the Late President.

The Rev. Isaac Errett, D. D., in a flu
neral Sermon ON the late President
published in the Christian at Work.
related the following incident as illus
trative of Mr. Garfield's character:
"When James A. Garfield was mere
lad, in this country a series OF religious
meetings were held in one OF the towns
of CuyahOga county, by a minister by
no means attractive as an orator, pos
sessing none of the graces of an orator,
and marked only by entire sincerity, by
good reasoning powers, and by earnest
ness in seeking to win his souls from sin
to righteousness. The lad Garfield at
tended these meetings for many nights,
and after listening to the sermons night
after night, he went one day to the min
lister and said to him: "Sir, | have been
listening to your preaching night after
night, and | am fully persuaded that il
these things you Say are true it is the
duty and highest interest of every man
of responsibility, and especially of ev-
cry young man, to accept that religion
and seek to be man. But, really, |
or not. can't say that | disbelieve it,
estly believe it. If | were sure that it
was true would most gladly give it
my heart and my life" So, after a
long talk, the minister preached that
night on the text, "What is truth ?" and
proceeded to show that, notwith-
standing all the various and conflicting
theories and opinions in the ethical sci
ence, and notwithstanding all the vari-
GUS and conflicting opinions in the
world, there was one assured and eter-
nal alliance for every human soul in
Jesus Christ; that every soul was safe
| with Jesus Christ; that He would never
mislead; that any young man giving
Him his hand and heart and walking in
His pathway would not go astray, and
| that, whatever might be the solution of
| 10000 insoluble histories, at the end of
all things the man who loved Jesus
Christ and walked after the footsteps
of Jesus, and realized in spirit and life
the pure morals and the sweet piety,
was safe, if safety there were in the
universe of God: safe, whatever else
were safe; safe, whatever else might
prove unworthy and perish forever
And he seized upon it after due retlec-
ton, and came forward and gave his
hand to the minister in pledge of his
acceptance of the guidance of Christ
for his life, and turned his back upon
the sins Of the world forever. The boy
is father to the man, and that pure hon
esty and integrity, and that fearless
spirit to inquire, and that brave surren-
der of all the charms of sin to convic-
tons of duty and right, went with him
from that boyhood thoughtought his
life, and crowned him with the honors
| that were so cheerfuliy awarded to him
from all over the land.

The wonderful contrast between the
fund for the relief of the Michigan suf-
ferers and the Garfield fund, is poor
commentary on the sincerity OF human
charity. Mrs. Garfield and children
have enough to make them more than
comfortable. The Presidents life was
insured for no insignificant sum, and he
left considerable property Of his own.
Without this sentiment fund of the no
toriety seekers, the Garfield family
would never know the want OF a dollar.
Yet over three hundred thousand dol
lars will be given them with which to
heal their breaking hearts. In the
burnt districts of Michigan, thousands
of our people, men, women and chill
dren, are naked and houseless, and lift
their hands in vain for the aid that will
not come. The paltry sum of hun
dred thousand, more or less, has been
doled slowly out to salve the wounds
a million could not cure. Such is char
ity. Such is tender sympathy. Such is
the nations care for its afflicted. From
all three, "Good Lord, deliver us."-LSa-
lem Argus.

We are firm believer in the truth OF
the axiom that the "world is, governed
too much.n We are opposed to over
legislation and to hasty legislation. In
our opinion, a few good laws, faithfully
and honestly executed, are worth more,
practically, to the public, than a great
library Of dead letter" statutes. With
Bacon, we believe that "Time is the
best refo1mer," and we are opposed,
-emphatically opposed, to any extra leg
islation, at present. :.
1T seems to us that the line of policy
adopted by many who favor reform
tends more to aggravate than TO aiiesl-
ate the imperfections and disadVan-
fages Of our system Of State, govern,
ment. Louisiana is already burdened
with too much ill-digested and useless
legislation, and we do not care to be in
flicted with any more of the same kind.
We, fail to see wherein an extra session
of our General Assembly would benefit
our Commonwealth or people. The
State can we'll afford to wait awhile-as
it surely Wilt Bossier Banner.

Judging from the quantity of freight
received as well as cotton and country
produce shipped, the number OF build
ings going up and the unusual demand
for lumber, Opelousas certainly presents
the most solid business front that 1t
has for several years past. The fact too,
that none of our merchants have be-
come bankrupt or failed and that
several new stores have been put IN
operation during the last year, and
Others are being built, argues strongly
for brighter prospects.

A new Justification of a dime has
come to light. The ingenious counter
feiter split dime piece in two, scraped
out as much of the silver as he dared,
and then joined the front and reverse OF
the coin together, the result being. very
much like but much thinner and lighter
than the original dime. An hour at
least must have been spent at this dis
honest work, and as skilled mechanics
time is worth about forty cents an hour
the counterfeiter was, to say the least
of it, out thirty cents on the job. and
ran the risk of the penitentiary, to boot
