Gen. Grant Pays Off.

At the Press Club dinner at st. Mich
olas Hotel, n. Y, last week, Gen. Grant
paid the newspaper men off handsome
ly for some old scores, in responding to
the following toast: ''The Republics
Honored ex-President."
| have been somewhat of a reader of
the newspapers for upwards of 40 years.
| could read very well when | was eight
Yeas of age, and it has given me 40
years of observation of the press, and
there is one popularity that have Oh
served, and that is in all the walks of
life outside of the press people have
entirely mistaken their profession, their
occupation. (Laughter.) | never knew
a mayor of a city or even a councilman
of any city-any public officer, and gov
ernnent official never knew a mem
Der of Congress, senator or president of
the United States who could not be en-
lightened in his duties by the youngest
member of the press. Uaughter.) l
never knew general to command a
brigade, division, corps, an army,
who could begin to do it as we'll as the
men far away in their sanctums, and |
often wondered. | was very glad to
hear that the newspaper fraternity were
ready to take with perfect confidence
auy office that might be rendered to
them, from president to mayor, and
have often been aStoniShed that the cit
liens have not done so, because they
know all these offices would have been
well and properly filled. Laughter)

Tom. Hughes on the Blacks.

| am coming to the conclusion that
wherever work is to be had, in Tennes
see, at any tate, there will the negro be
found. He seems to gather to the con-
tractor like the bnzzards, which one
sees over the tree tops, to carrion.
And unless the white natives take to
putting in all their time,n whatever
work is going will not remain long with
them. The niger will loaf and shirI
as often as not when he gets the chance,
but he has not the same craving for
knocking off altogether us soon as he
has a couple of dollars in his pocket;
has no strong hunting instinct, and has
not acquired the art of letting his pick
drop listlessly into the ground with its
own weight, and stopping to admire the
scenery after every half dozen strokes.
The negro is much more obedient, more
over, and manageable, -Ohedient to a
fault, if one can believe the many stO-
ries one hears of his readiness to COM
nit small misdemeanOrs and crimes,
and not always small ones, at the bid
ding of his employers. There is one
thing, however, which an equally unan-
imOus testimony agrees III declaring
that he will not do, and that is to sell
his vote, or be dragooned into giving
it for any one but his own choice; he
may, indeed, be scared from voting,
but he cannot be squared" singular
testimony, surely, of his prospective
value as a citizen. Equally strong is
the evidence of his resOute determina-
ton to get his children educated. In
some southern states the children are, |
believe. kept apart, but in the only
school | have had the chance of seeing,
black and white children were together.
And everywhere, | hear, the blacks are
forcing the running, with respect to ed
ucation, and great numbers of them are
showing a thrift and energy which are
likely to make them formidable com
petitors i'll the struggle for existence in
all states south of Kentucky at any
rate.-TeRReSsee Letter to the London

surging tide of intempeTance !" and 1t
is to he answered on one side by tho
practical voice of society, and on the
other by the edicts of our Legislatures.
We should act with an even mind on a
grave subject, and see to it that every
step we take is solidly founded on right
reason. We should urge before our
Legislatures plans that are tree from
the faint of crude prejudice, and in
stinct with practical wisdom, and when
we do this. we shall be surprised to see
how many whom we took to be enemies
there are who are ready to join us in
the work and establish foundations of
order and peace in the land, that shall
save us from moral slough.
Let me, III conclusion, distinctly say
that do not oppose the principle of to-
tai abstinence from all that intoxicates
for the individual. Every man is at
liberty to abstain, if he will, and it is
his duty to abstain if his own conscience
command it. That against which |
contend, and which | hold up as the
hindrance to true reform and the pro-
moter of the drunkard's cause is the
total abstinence crusade or propaganda
the forcing total abstinence upon the
community as the duty of all-the put
ting under the ban every one who does
not follow that standard-the insisting
upon total abstinence as the only safety
against drunkenness. 1t is this head
long movement which virtually cries
"the Koran or the sword and tramples
alike on reason and scripture in its
blind rush,-it is this and not private
total abstinence against which | in
weigh. And let me also repeat that |
am attacking a system and not persons.
| have no war with men, but with err
ror. | can honorthe men who uphold
a pernicious system, for | can believe
in their pnrity of motive and singleness
of aim. And for this reason the more
earnestly and hopefully urge them to
consider their ways and abandon a
course which is only confirming the
dreadful curse we all abhor and desire
to remove.

The Temperance Question.

CONCLUSION OF CHANCELLOR CROSBYs
BOSTON LECTURE.
No man is more keenly alive to the
frightful ravages of drunkenness than !
am, and it is because the prevailing
system of a total abstinence crusade is
hindering the cure of the evil by keep
ing Just methods from the field and by
disgusting mems minds with the very
name Oftemperance, so cruelty bemired,
that denOunce it, and ask good men
to rally around truer and purer stand
ard. The right system must be one
that recognizes practically the differ
ence between excess and moderation,
and the difference between injurious
and harmless drinks, and they will APP
peal to the common sense of reasonable
and thinking men. 1t must be a sys-
TEN that deals honestly with history,
science and scripture, and does not in
vent theories and then support them by
gaIbled quotations and imaginary facts.
1t must he manly system that has no
cant or foolery of orders and ribbons,
degrading matter of high principle to
the hocus pocus of a child's play. Such
a system would be found in the exclu-
sion of distilled liquor from common
use as beverage both by public Opin-
lou and by law, and the wise regulation
in society and i'll the state of the use of
vinous and malt liquors. Society
should put away all the drinking usages
that lead to excess, such as furnishing
many wines at an entertainment, or
treating" others, or putting branded
wines upon the table, aud the state
should limit the number of licensed
sellers to at most the proportion of one
to a thousand inhabitants of each town,
and these sellers should be under heavy
bonds not to sell to minors or drunk
ards, and not to allow disreputable
characters to gather at their places.
The law should also make the collec
ton of evidence against licensed SELL
er easy, and the penalty for breaking
the law should be imprisonment as well
as fine. On a basis like this, that does
not sweepingly condemn every drink
that has alcohol in it, the great MAORI
ty of the people could work according
~, and therefore effectively. The wild
radicalism of the teetOtalers is just what
the rumsellers and their advocates en-
JOY. They know that this absurd eX
travagance disintegrates the army of
order and renders it powerless; that so
long as temperance is made to mean
total abstinence from everything that
can intoxicate," the great multitude of
order-loving men will shrink from join
ing any temperance movement, and
hence these Wholesale destroyers of the
race can go on in their nefarious work
with impunity.
Now what is needed is the union of
all good men who desire to stop the
fearful drunkenness of the land with
its attendant crimes and misery. That
union never can be effected on the
principles of the total abstinence prop
uganda. But it can he effected on the
principles of truth and common sense,
and they who prevent this union by
their tenacious adherance to false and
fanatical system are responsible before
God and man for the spreading curse.
There is no more important question
before the American people to-day
than this, Glow shall we stay this

Show Respect for Women.

There is nothing in which young men
are so thoroughly mistaken as in the
low estimation they form of the integ-
rity of women. Not of their own
mothers and sisters, but of others, who,
they forget, are somebody else's moth
ers and sisters. As rule, no person
who surrenders to this debasng habit
is to be entrusted with an enterprise re-
quiring integrity of character. Plain
words should he spoken on the subject,
for the evil is general one. If young
men are sometimes thrown into the
company of the thOughtless and de-
PRAYED women, they have no right to
measure all women by what they see of
these, than they have to estimate the
character of honest respectable people
by the development of crime in our pO-
lice courts. Let our young men re-
member that their chief happiness in
life depends on their utter faith in wO-
men. No worldly wisdom, no nissan
thrOpic philosophy, no generalization,
can weaken this truth; it stands like
the record of itself-fOr it is nothing less
than this-and should put an everlast-
ing seal upon lips that are wont to
speak lightly of w0men.-LynR Trans.

Taking Comfort in Life.

Sooner OF later, friends, the time for
folded hands will come for US all.
Whether or not we cease from hurry
and worry now, we shall one day shut
our ewes upon it, and lie still untroub-
led by the stir and fret of things around
us. Why not take comfort as we go
on? You, proud mother of a beautiful,
active boy, of what use will it be to
you to remember how eXqnisitely fine
was his raiment, how daintily spread
his bed, ani how costly and profuse his
toysl What the child needs is moth
ering, brOOding, tender resting en- your
heart, and he needs 1t every step of the
way from babyhoOd to manhood. Take
the comfort of your opportunities. New
er mind though the dress be coarse, and
the food plain, aud the playthings few,
but answer the questions, tell the stO
ries, spare the half hour at bedtime,
and be merry and gay, confidential and
sympathetic with your boy. And YOU,
whose graceful young daughter is just
blushing out into the bloom and fresh
ness of a wOndrously fair wOmanliness,
do not be so occupied with your ambi-
ton for her, and her advancement in
life, that you let her ways and your
own fall apart. Why are her friends,
her interests, and her engagements so
wholly distinct from yours Why
does she visit here and there, and re-
ceive visits from this and that home,
and you scarcely know the people by
sight You are losing precious hours,
and the comfort you ought to take is
flying fast away on those wings of time
that are never Overtaken.-GOiden Cen

And I in Him.

BY REV. GEORGE BOWEN, BOMBAY, IND.
"Aud in him" The promise here
follows swift upon the command,
"Abide in me.n If we satisfy ourselves
with Jesus, He will be the satisfaction
of our souls. No language can express
all that is cOmprehended in these three
words, IL in Him." Saints that have
been for thousands of years before the
throne do not fully fathom it. There
is but One that knOweth Christ, and
but one that can estimate the wealth of
that inheritance here made over to the
believer. In Christ are all the treas
ures of wisdom and knowledge; the
Spirit without measure; all the fullness
of the Godhead life ineXhaustible ;
love unfathomable; glory, homer, do
minioD, blessing; and thus marvellous
" freighted, Christ offers to dwell in
the believer; aud as the believer does
not occasionally visit Christ, but habit
ually abides in Him, so we are warrant
ed to conclude that Christ proposes not
to give the believer au occasional reve-
lation of His grace, not to sadden him
with intermingled periods of desertion,
but as the vine abideth with the branch,
so will He abide with, in, and for, the
believer.

College Expenses.

The Independent well says with re-
gard to the increase in college expenses
during the last twenty years -
a part of this increase (that for board)
is legitimate. Food costs more than it
did. But this is the smallest part of
the increase. The ertrGs are what en-
nance the cost. Tuition has not much
increased. In some colleges, as Har-
ward, the room rent, it is true, has be-
come very burdensome item, and in
nearly all the larger colleges it has
been raised materially; but this is
chiefly for rooms in special locations,
and does not affect the body of the
students seriously. The extra bills are
incurred for other and less legitimate
objects: for class expenses, for athletic
clubs, for intercollegiate matches, for
social or literary societies, for photo
graphs, music, and expenses of class
days and graduation, not by the college
but by the students themselves, and
tue payment Of which is demanded by

Waiting.

Christ never asks of such busy labor
As leaves no time for resting at his feet;
The waiting attitude Of expectation
He ofttimes counts a service most complete.
He sometimes wants our eAr-Our rapt attention
That he some sweetest secret may impart;
It's always in the time Of deepest silence
That heart finds deepest fellowship with heart
We sometimes wonder why our Lord doth place US
Within a sphere narrow. so obscure,
That nothing we call work can find an entrance;
There's only to suffer-to endure
Well God loves patience! Souls that dwell in still
ness
Doing the little things or resting quite,
May just as perfectly fulfil their mission,
Be Just useful in the Fathers sight,
A they who grapple with some giant evil,
Clearing path that every eye may see
Our Savior cares for cheerful acquiesence,
Rather than for a busy ministry.
Then seek TO please him, whatsoever he bids thee
Whether to dO-to suffer-tO lie still
Twill matter little by what path he led us,
If in it all We sought To do his will.

An Indian Attack on an Emigrant
Camp.

One warm day in August, upon the
bank of the muddy Colorado, we chill
dren were lazily sitting about on the
ground. One sister was stringiHg beads
taken from an old moccasin, and most
of the men were asleep under the wag
Ons through the heat of the afternoon.
There was a great stiffness upon every
thing, save for the children's chatter,
and a heat rose from the ground that
smote the eyes. Suddenly there was a
dreadful scream, echoed, re-echoed,
multiplied then another, and another,
as when one strikes the hand upon the
mouth, till in one second of time the
air seemed rent and torn with yells.
In Just that second the close chapparal
had become black with Indians, who
had crawled, serpent-like, on hands
and knees, till, right upon us, in con-
cert they could leap into sight. They
wore clothes upon their loins, and some
had feathers wound in their hair, with
hideous paint glowing on face and
breast. | gazed in dumb amazement,
benumbed with surprise, and then l
think | awoke to the excitement of the
occasion. The women and children,
through an air thick with flying arrows,
were marshaled into one covered wag-
on, and there my mother wrapped us
all round with featheT-beds, blankets
and comforters. | do not think | was
frightened, not because of any precoci-
ty of courage, bat because of a wild
excitement that filled me. half lean
ed upon the knee of my sister. She
said she was conscious of no pain, she
felt no sudden pang, but something
warm seemed running down her side,
and, looking down, she saw an arrow
which had pierced her flesh and pro-

truded its flinty head from the wound.
"Mother," she exclaimed, II am shot,"
and tainted. My mother, the woman
whose spirit never failed her in this or
the dreadful trials which succeeded this
disastrous fight, put forth her hand and
drew the arrow backward through the
wound. 1t was while thus supporting
the head of the girl she supposed dy
ing, it somehow became known to her
that her husband was lying quite dead
and filled with arrows under the great
cottonwood tree around which the
camp was made. 1t was but a few
moments more till one of the men
spoke from the front of the wagon.
Said he: "0ur ammunition is giving
out, and we do not know but it may
come to q hand-to-hand fight. Get
out the knives you have in the bed of
the wagon" Through the backward
march which followed it was ever the
women who rose superior to suffering
and to danger. The men lost courage,
hope and spirit, but the women never.
A few moments after the demand for
had seized my fathers rifle, aimed at
the chief with a dinner-bell depending
from his belt, and saw him fall. In
| five minutes not an Indian was to be
seen, the living dragging with them the
dead as they went. In the mean time,
under cover of the fight, our great herd
of cattle had been made to swim the
river, and were safely cOrraled in the
Mojave villages Kate Heath in Jan

the public sentiment of the institution.
Add to this a growing luxuriousness of
the students in furniture, dress, cigars,
drives, etc., and we see where the mon
ey goes to. That this increase of ex-
pense is extremely unfortunate is very
clear. 1t bears hard on many parents,
who deny themselves even the COM

ed that Mr.. Beebe, while at work in the
field, can send the dog to the house at
ter any light tool he may want, and the
dog never makes Il mistake but gets
what he is sent after. He will get the
cows without any trouble. Mr.. Beebe
has quite stock of cattle which are
kept in different stables, and he will
open Il stable door when the cattle are
all in the yard, and say to the dog, LEO
drive them in,' the dog will pick out
such cattle as belong in that stable and
drive them in without any mistake.
Leo is great on devotional exercises.
When told that it is prayer time he
takes his position in a corner of the
room with his nose on stair, and will
remain although they may call him
and offer him his dinuer) until he hears
the final amen. The past summer Mr..
Beebe left his vest in the cornfield
where it remained a number of days !;

go and get it :" the dog went directly
to the field and soon returned with the
