BE ALIVE.

Death is out of place in the ser
vice of the Lord of life. The living
God does not choose dead servants.
Idleness, laziness, stupor and death
in church and associations of Chris
tians are enough to astonish devils
and make angels sad. The world
calls us with ten thousand calls of
pain and want and woe and sin, and
the voice of Him who has all power
in heaven and earth sends us ''into
all the world" and bids US bear to
every creatures the glad message of
his love and grace. And with such
urgent calls and such high commands
sounding in our ears, shall we play,
and trife, and sleep, and die? Such
a course is abhorrent to our nature,
even in worldly things. In the lam
guage of Arnot s'We like leaping
river better than a stagnant pool. 1t
is far better to be worn somewhat by
work than corroded by the rust of
idleness. If there are denominations
in the earth Christian does not ex-
haust his duty by 'sighing and cry
ing over them. up guards and at
them ? is very good motto for our
warfare: and in one phrase of Scrip
ture we shall find both our strategy
and our misunderstanding the
truth in love- This is not a good
world for resting in, but it is a good
world for working in; and if we are
fellow workers with God our labor
will not be loss. Tile Christian
The religious aspect in France is
at present full of the deepest interest
to every thoughtful Christian. M.
Gambetta, now practically at the
head of affairs, is an avowed atheist
and has openly declared that the first
duty of the Republic is to free it's
citizens from the s'trammels of SUI
perstition,' by which is meant any
religious belief whatever. At an
Atheistic Congress recently held in
Paris, the advocates of free thought
passed resolution that parents
ought to be prohibited by law from
speaking of religion at home, even to
their children. To their honor be it
said, two Protestant ministers had
the courage to attend and lift up
their voices against some of the BIAS
phemy, though their protest caused a
great commotion. The Congress
closed with a banquet, at which a
toast to "God-hating'' was drunk.
A committee, under the presidency
of r. w. McAll, is preparing for the
visit of Messrs. Moody and Sankey.

Tstatement of MIR. Washington Monroe. Of Catskil,

For sailing beef, the following is
recommended: The best pieces are
the plates, ribs and brisket. Pack
the pieces in casks, giving a very
slight sprinkling of salt between
each piece. Then cover the meat
with pickle, by boiling together, in
4 gallons of water, 8 pounds of salt,
3 pounds brown sugar, l ounce pearl
ash, for 100 pounds of meat. Keep
a heavy fiat stone on the meat, that
it may be well immersed in the pick
lie. 1t is said that beef packed in
this way will keep year, and will
rather improve than grow worse.

1t is the capital mistake of not
few ministers, especially in the liber-
al division of the church, that Hwhat
the world needs is thoroughly re-
constructed, scientific and aesthetic
religion; or as DIR. Bellows puts it,
"a more perfect adjustment to the
marvellous new age of science and
discovery" But the world these
gentlemen have in their eye is very
small world, and therefore at vast
remove from the actual world. Take
a cosmopolitan city like New York as
a sample of the world, and what have
we? A population nine-tenths of
whom know little and care less for
your science and culture and high
art. They are not going to know
much about these things in this world.
Plain moral distinctions, decency, du-
ty, and the uplifting force of NIGH
ty persuasion of the reality of anoth-
er and better world, are what they
most need. In other terms, the ac-
tual world yet needs faithful, truth
full, loving application of the old and
simple Gospel of Jesus Christ

pounds to the bushel. The same
hogs next fed fourteen days on corn
meal and water mixed, consumed
80 1-2 bushels of corn and gained
731 pounds, or 13 1-2 pounds of pork
to the bushel. He then fed them
fourteen days on corn meal cooked,
and after consuming forty-five bush
els of the cooked meal the hogs gain
ed 100 pounds, or very nearly fifteen
pounds of pork to the bushel of meal.
The weak point in New England
agriculture it seems to us is one of
two things either we do not do quite
so we'll as we know, or we don t
know quite as much as we should.
Just look at the thousands of acres
of good land all over New England
that is hardly cultivated at all some
of it is little rocky, some of it is too
wet, but it only needs labor well di-
rected to make it as productive as
any land need be. A prudent, intel
ligent and Industrious farmer, if he
loves his business, will be a success
full farmer wherever you may fine
him, and we can find a great many
such in all parts of New England
and they are happy farmers, too.

RELIGION IMPERIsHABLE.- Religion
is reproached with not being progress
sive; it makes amends by being i'm
perishable. The enduring element
in our humanity is not in the doc
trines which we consciously elaborate,
but in the faiths, which unconscious
ly dispose of us, and never slumber
but to wake again. What treatise on
sin, what philosophy of retribution is
as fresh as the fifty-frst Psalm ?
What scientific theory has lasted like
the Lords Prayer? 1t is an evidence
of movement that in a library no
books become sooner obsolete than
books of science. It is no less a
mark of stability that poetry and re-
ligious literature survive, and even
ultimate PHILOSOPHERS seldom die but
to rise again. These, and with them
the kindred services of devotion, are
the expression of aspirations and
faiths which forever cry out for inter-
prefers and guides. And in proper
ton as you carry your appeal to those
deepest seats of our nature you not
only reach the frmest ground, but
touch accordant notes in every heart,
so that the response turns out har-
mony.-Dr. Mdrtineau.

DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET.
FOR SHERIFF,
PURNAL j. LYNCH.
The Republican Convention.

The Higgins wing of the Republican
party, through their organ in this city, are
making desperate efforts to show that the
delegate election ON Saturday afternoon re-
suited in their favor.
Starting out in this brilliant calculation
the morning organ accepts the figures for
New Castle county, as carefully compiled
In Yesterdays GAZETTE, which show that
the State Central Committee secured 81
delegates, to a. for the opposition. This is
as near correct as can be determined at
present, although among the delegates ac
credited to the opposition are few 'unin-
''structed" ones, who may be found in the
stalwart camp when the fight becomes
hot.
Going down to Kent county, the home OF
the Stalwart ring" the morning organ
makes the astonishing discovery that of the
forty delegates elected, Is are in favor of
County rights (meaning Fooks for Gcv-
ernor) while only % are unqualifedly in
favor of the Stalwart State Central Commit
tee. How this computation was arrived at is
not stated, but 1t is not verified by the returns,
which show that ip only one hundred (South
Murderkill) did the voters make any show
OF independence, and then they simply
instructed the delegates to vote for the
choice of Sussex county for Governor.
Admitting that the five delegates from this
hundred will go with the opposition, and
the summary will show the Stalwarts to be
in the majority by a,Vote of 35 to 5.
In Sussex county, where, according to
the GAzETTR's carefully collected and COM
piled returns, the delegation is tie-21 to
21-the morning organ figures out "A for the
opposition to Is for the State Central Com
mittee. And in making a final summary, it
rearranges its first estimate for New Castle
county by cutting down the Stalwart vote
to "a and running the opposition
strength to "a, without giving any explana-
ton for such strange manipulation. By
this mathematical hocus- pocus it makes tn,
State Convention stand 90 for the opposition
to 81 for the State Central Committee, ant
thus insures triumph for the d" Half
Breeds at Dover on Thursday.
We can imagine how Messrs Fisher, Har
rington, Mills & Co., will smile at this mic
little disposition of the contending forces i
the coming convention. "Figures," it
said, twill not lie," but the startlin
manner in which the morning organ
figures will be transposed when the CONVEX
ton meets will prove that while figures ma
not lie of themselves they can be made
lie, and that manipulated figures will n
nominate candidates or control convention
Thursday afternoon will tell the tale.
