Rev. John Lanahan, of the Foundry Church,
preached TO large congregation yesterday morn
ing taking for his text a portion of the second
chapter OF Genesis, God formed man out of dust
in his own image and pronounced the work per
feet 1t was acknowledged, said Dr. Lsnahan that
the union OF the soul and body was mystery
which man could talk about but not fathom. And
principle belonging to this mystery was that the
soul regulated the body, which was mere physi-
cal machine. The body, in the course of time
would return to its original element, but the SOUL
after the dissolution. flew away from the physical
structure to another state of being The passage of
Scripture which he had quoted tended to establish
the Immortality of the soul as God intended, aud q
belief in this mystery by man would eventually
make the darkest day light. Every act OF
God demonstrated the perfection of his
ideas, from the smallest insect to the
hugeSt animal. Investigation invariably showed
this, and combined 10 prove that nothing
was III vain or out of place. Man was made for a
destiny, and filed place on earth for short time
tOprepare him for the eternity of which time was
only the vestibule. He had been made q little
lower than the angels and given control of every
thing on earth. but was taught to anticipate the
day when he should no longer see. as through a
glass darkly. He not made to be punished
to the future was evinced by his visiting fortune
tellers and spiritualists, through whom he en-
deavOred to tear aside the veil of futurity. Life
here was only the beginning OF the Journey and
men should act in harmony with Gods laws that
when death came it would have no terrors but
would find them ready and waiting TO put on i'm
mortality.

The citizens of Texas u~,,iveysou

The citizens of Texas universally
denounce the action of Governor
Roberts, in refusing to respond to
the request of Governor Foster, of
Ohio, calling for the appointment OF
a day Of thanksgiving and jubilee
for the recovery of President Gar
field. The following is Gov. Rob-
ert's reply to Gov, Foster, giving
his reasons for not complying:
MY failure to answer you favor
ably is not on account of auy want
of sympathy for the President, but
because / do not deem it as con-
sistene with my position as Cover
nor to issue a proclamation direct
ing religious services where Church
and State are. and ought 10 be,
kept separate in their functions. 1
doubt:not the people Of Texas have
as strongly wished and will as de-
voutly pray for the recovery of the
President as any people in the
United States"

an in favor of hanging such insane
people. on the same principle that
l would shoot a mad-dcg." We
would simply add, here, that DR..
Hammond is one of the most sue
cessful and experienced surgeons
in the United States, and any sug-
gestion from him is worthy of the
greatest consideration.

STILL ANOTHER COMET.

Prot. Swift, Director OF the War
ner Observatory, Rochester, N. Y,
has Just verified the discovery OF
another comet, in the Constellation
of Auriga, made July 14th, by Prof.
j. NJ. Schaberle, of Ann Arbor
Mich. This new comet is appar-
emily coming directly towards the
earth, and, for a telescope comet,
is very bright; indeed, it can readily
be seen with a good opera glass. 1t
is quite remarkable that it should
be in just the spot where the present
large comet was first seen by the
naked eye in this latitude, and it
shows that the two bodies must have
crossed each others paths. This
make the fourth comet discovered
within ten weeks, a circumstance
heretofore unknown in history.
Prof. Schaeberle has duly filed his
application for the Warner prize of
5000, and as yet he is the only
claimant.
