METHODIsM.
TColumbus Enquirer /

Nothing better illustrates the properties
of heaven than Nlothodism. Nothing is
better to show tho possibilities of small
beginnings and humble men. God, in the
workings of his providence, ignores the
plans and means that human wisdom would
adopt. In his ruling little things often
become great and what men consider fool
ishncss is wisdom is his eyes. A century
and half ago Wesley aud few humble
adhcrouts iu England, becoming weary of
the pomp and circumstance of form, louged
for what they considered deeper spiritual
manifestations aud determined to set up
for themselves outside of tho mother
church. Tho hand of God was in their
work and q revolution commenced in church
matters which has gono on spreading till
tho whole world seems likely to become
pcrmeatcd with the leavcn of Wesleyan
Methodism. From the few humble and
obscure societies which were scattered here
and there in Britain, tho denomination hns
grown into millions and has foothold in
every civilized and heather country on the
globe. It's influence is universally ac-
knowedgcd and respected. 1t does not
claim 10 be the only true church nor in
the limo Of apostoical accession, but only
branch OF that grand, true church which is
destined to subdue kingdoms and cooquer
the whole eurth. Its simplicity aud earn
estness oommends it to the wants of the
masses, and forces tho respect aud conf
deuco Of even those who differ from its
polity and tonets. 1t used to be designated
as "relison 10 eurncst,' and its fiual suc-
cess as an instrument OF. God will depend
upon fidelity to first principles. 1t ia well
calculated for tho grand mission of pros
claiming the gospel to every creature. Its
ono hundred thousand itncraut preachers
scattered throughout the habitablc globe,
are indeed great moral force which must
be respected and admired. No good men,
however widely differing in their notions
as to forms and methods, can afford to
despisc an instrument which God approves
No spirit of rivalry should subvcrt the
need Of praise from an instrumcntality so
grand and effective. Differences as to tho
letter arc admissible, but unity of spirit is
highly desirable. N1cthodism comedies the
virtues of all evangelical crceds, and
good men are found in oil of thcm
1t acts upon that grand catholioity Of spirit
cnunciatcd by St. Peter when he said
"Now perceive that God is no respcctcr
OF persons, but in every nation he that
fcarcth God and workcth righteousness is
accepted of Him."

The Source of the Mississippi.

Tho new found source of the Mississippi

above and beyond Lake Itaska. 1t nestles
amoug the pines of an unfrcqucntcd and
wild region of Minnesota, many miles
on the dividing ridge which forms the
great water shed of North America. With
in fow miles of it can be found lakes
and streams whose waters arc tributary to
the Red River or the North and the Yel-
lowstonc, thus reaching tho sea thousands
of miles from the mouth of the mighty
Mississippi, which flows in trickling
brook from Lake Glazicr. This lake, dis

be nearly round in shape but for single

outline the shape of heart. Tho waters
Of tho Lake arc exceedingly clear aud pure,
coming from springs, some being at the bot.
miles back in low, wet land and
flow into tho lake in little rills. On the
very point Of the promontory is spring
whose waters ore as cold as ice and OF
which Capt, Glaciers weary party slakod

the new lake. So lonely is the region
around the lake that for fourteen days not

rise up and put stop to such practices and
punish oil dealers who sell poisonous articles

statements were needed ono has only to
read the facts recently brought to light in
Chicago, where it is impossible to find pure
sugar and where not ten per cent. of tho

without exception, is poisonous; the teas
were never imported, but arc made of
leaves "faccd' with Prussian blue aud

Mischief Makers.

O, could tbcre in tho world be found
Some little spot of happy ground
Where village pleasures might abound,
Without the village tottIiug;
How doubly blest that placo would be,
Where all might dwell in liberty,
Free from oil the bitter misery
Of gossips, endless prattliug.
If such plaoo was really known
Dame peace might claim it as her own,
And in it she might fix her throne
Forever and forever.
There, like queen, might reign and live
While every ono would soon forgive
The little Sights they might receive,
Aud bo offended mover.
'Tis mischief makers that remove
Far FROM our hearts that warmth of love,
And lead us oil to disapprove
What gives another pleasure
Thes seem to take our part, but when
They've heard our oares, unkindly then
They soon recall them all again,
Mixed with their poisonous measure!
Oh! that the mischief making crew
Were all reduced to one or two,
And they we're painted red aud blue,
That every one might know them;
Then would our villagers forget
10 rage and quarrel, to foam aud fret,
And fall into an angry pet
For things so much below them.
For It's sad degrading part,
10 make another's bcso" smart
And plant dagger in the heart
We ought to love and cherish.
In quictncss, with ull around,
While friendship, JOY and peace abound,
Let mo in happiness be found,
And angry feeling perish.
