TIE MORAL ASPECT OF RICHES,

A few days ago the APPEAL Published an
extract from one of Mr.. Beecher's sermons,
in which he pleaded eloquently for kind at
tentioh given to just claims on behalf of the
striking workmen. While Justly urging that
there is no virtue in being poor, and show
ing that there was no sin in being rich, he
favored all that humanity and kindly feel
ing requires from the rich to the poor. Mr..
Beecher is usually above the shallow phil
Osophy that is too often betrayed in our pull
pits, but we doubt whether he has ever
fathoned the relations of riches and poverty,
or We think he would have weighter argu-
nnents to urge than We have ever yet found
in his remarks, and they have been frequent,
upon this very important social question.
The Bible position is very clear on the point,
and its utterance is summed up in the emf
nent good sense of the sentiment expressed
In Proverbs: "Give me neither poverty nor
Iiches." With this sentiment the New Tes-
lament we'll accords all the way through, in
both gospels and epistles. Jesus viewed
riches as a danger TO mans moral welfare,
danger mis- followers to-day have
very generally lost sight OF. With Jesus
riches did not constitute a sin, but
danger, danger so great that He warns His
followers more frequently against it than
against any one special sin. Reading His
sayings, we zee how constant are His cautions
upon this point, and the same cautions are in
tensihed at times, especially in the Epistles,
10 denunciations. While the possession OF
riches, therefore, is not sin, there ia seme-
thing about wealth that induces a tendency
10 moral derelictiou. We need urge nothing
in proof of this fact; every observer has seen
proofs without number. While the mere
possession of wealth is not as a rule immoral,
it may become so under certain circum-
stances. II a small class of individuals OBJ
tain and keep possession of so large an
amount OF the wealth of community that,
when the rest of it is distributed, quite con-
siderable portion of the people are left with
barely the necessities of life, so that in case |
of sickness or misfortune they and their iami- |
lies are reduced TO restitution, then it is evi.
dent that riches have been grssped to an ex-
cess that violates the moral law and consti- |
tutes an evil that ought to be resisted and |
rectiied. Happily our country is not in |
that condition; but the causes that lead to |

preparations made by the present Congress,
and in praise OF the Republican majority in
passing general legislation bill handed

Mormon, anti-Chinese, tariff commission and

Mr.. Black burn Ky.] briefly replied, and

this late day passed the general appropria-
ton bills provided for the support OF the
government.
Mr.. Wills KY criticised the bill for its
omission to make any appropriation for the

Senate.-The Senate, after an Intellectual
effort by Cameron via. in behalf OF the
Ben Halliday bill, took up the river and

Senator Mcmillan, chairman OF the Com

367,515. The Senate committee had added
81 $685. 900, making a total OF Sl9, 463, 915.
He enumerated the principal items for this
increase; 1877 900 had been added to the
appropriation for the improvement of the
Mississippi river under the direction
OF the River Commission, to be APP
piled from the head Of the passes
to Cairo, making the amount for
that portion OF the river S5OOO,OOO. For
the Improvement of the Missouri from It's
mouth to Sioux City $1,000 additional has
been voted, and for survey from the mouth
OF the river to Fort Benton 100000 for
harbors on the shores OF Lake Michigan,
items increase the amount to $4,000. The
committee had inserted a provision author
izing the secretary OF war to lay out and
construct canal from point on the Hi
noIs river at or near the town of Hennepin
to the Mississippi river at or about Rock
Island, and had appropriated 100000 for
the work. The bill was then read and the
amendments of the committee cuncurred in

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.

Once more 'the glorious Fourth" has come
and gone, but if We may judge by what has
met our own eye, and by accounts given in
various newspapers, the reception OF that
ustional anniversary was not, this year, a
very warm one. Was the want of enthusi-
asm due to a decrease of patriotism, or TO our
national inability TO sustain a holiday with
success? There is a cynicism in the age
which scorns sentiment and treats old men,
liberty, of patriotism, of devotion to our
country, are regarded as ssrt OF pharisaical
cant. This does not speak well for us.
There is something good and noble in the
honest heartiness with which our sires re-
called on the national anniversary the AFRO
gance of England, the slowly kindling spirit
of resistance of the colonists, the huctua-
lions of hope and fear during the revolu-
tionary war, the efforts OF Washington and
of the devoted men who bore the brunt Of
the strife. 1t was well OF them to
recall all the sacred story OF our
country's birth to freedom, to recount
and celebrate them on "the glorious Fourth"
anu 30 10 manu- the glow OF ardOr
down 10 their sons that from age to age
our land might give one day in the year to
noble and holy memories. We certainly
ought not to let the order OF our devotion to
our country's institutions smolder like a
dying fame at this day. Our Union has
been, in our time, tried by the fire, and GER
tainly our love for it should not grow cold
We see our land take rank among the first
powers of the earth and honored in every
country under heaven, and we see the grand
principles our fathers proclaimed and fought
for every year spreading under their eleva-
ting and benefcient influence. Had we ever
stronger motives for patriotism, greater rea-
sons to teach our children to be proud of
their country, than we have to-day?

thati condition care in operation, and we
accordingly see that, as the country becomes
older, the number of very rich people in
cresses, and the number of very poor people
increases in the same degree. To urge atter-
ton to the claims of labor on the ground OF
mere feeling and sentiment Is time and effort
thrown away; it should be shown that the
nature of things, the welfare and safety of
the rich themselves, require that legislation
should favor the distribution OF wealth
among the many, not its accumulation IN
the hands of the few. The means of ac-
accomplishing this change are simple and
easy, and when they are put intelligently
and justly into operation great stumbling
block to religion, danger to good morals,
an obstacle TO progress, and the greatest ex-
listing disturber OF the peace of human COM
munities will be reduced to comparative i'm
potence. This question OF property is be-
coming more important every generation,
add will, before very long, become the lead
ing one in all civilized and intelligent coun-
tries. As men become educated and able TO
trace effects to their causes, they will ener-
getlcally protest against that portion Of The
community that creates all the marketable
wealth that exists having too little of it, and
those who create none OF it from having too
much of it for the welfare of either. When
that period arrives legislation will perform
its salutsry work, and without the property
of any man being impaired, or the rights
of any citizen injured; without socialism,
communism or nihilism the present mis-
arrangements, which tend to make the
rich richer and the poor poorer, will be rec
tilted, and step be made toward that better
state of society when the majority of the
people will be in that improved condition
that will result from being delivered from

On my leaves till each proud petal

But when morning with its sunbeams
Softly shOne,
In the mirror where she braided
Her brown hair, saw how jaded,
Old and colorless and faded

"Not drop of dew was on me,
Never one;
From my leaves no odor started,
All my perfume had departed,
