GENTLE WORDS AND KINDLY DEEIS.
BY ROSA PEARLE.

ii one could know how gentle words
And little deeds Of Kindness live,
They wou'd not, n they journey on,
SO grudsingiy and rarely give.
IL Is not much To speak " those.
Whose hearts are burtheued with their woe,
And show by sympathetic speech,
heart within the bosom CLOVIS
And vet, how oft We turn aside,
With careless glance and hurried tread;
As ii III griei's uncanny tolls,
We saw a hideou, thing 10 dread.
We cannot know how soon perhaps,
Such sorrows may be ours to bear;
MOI how our human needs will crave,
Some plying breast with us to share.
For life, as well as days Of gold.
Must have its dreary time Of rain;
Must have its bitter with its sweet,
Its toll and trouble, and its pain.
Its seasons when the light and JOY,
That marked the mornings dawn are fed
The frsgrautness aud perfect bloom
Which hedged the royal rose is dead.
And SO 'twere best the deed and word.
That speaks of sympathy with those
Who suffer much should not he kept:
We, too, may have to bear-God knows.

WEEKLY BAZOO.
THE CANDID VIEW.

Since the foundation of the christ
an religion it has had to battle with
bitter and unrelenting foes.
The Divine Author was Himself
the victim of terrific onslaughts and
finally closed His life by an ignomni-
ious death. His disciples, whom He
had chosen to be the immediate pro-
INDICATORS of His doctrines, met with
violent opposition and cruel deaths.
As the centuries rolled by the form
of opposition and manner Of battle
changed. From personal persecution
it became one of dOctrinal
differences and bold denial
of the truth of the claim that it was
an inspired religion.
Science brought its batteries to
beat out the statements of the script
ures. With learning, zeal and ire
pressible hate the scholars of the mid
die ages, end from thence until now.
who have refused to accept the mar
velous teachings of the worlds great
est Teacher, assailed every pregnable-
point of the inspired word, and cry
ing out now and then, Eureka,
Eureka !"
To-day the assailants use new
weapons and assault from new po-
sitions. They now denounce the
church as an organization of hypocrits,
of long faced pharisees and practical
disbelievers in the doctrines they pro
fess.
This charge is false. absurdly so.
Religion, and We mean thereby the
christian religion, does not make a
man hypocrite. Its whole tenden-
cy is to develop the noblest qualities of
his being.
The certain work of the gospel of
Jesus Christ, is to make the world
better. Its history proves that, and
he is a fool who denies it. But there |
are hypocrites in the church, thousands
of them, and the fact is that these
miserable incubi are found in societies
The Masonic order is just as much
cursed with this class of members as
is the church. So too are the Odd
Fellows. the Knights of Pythias and
all the rest of the secret societies.
But this does not prove that these
associations are venal, corrupt and un-
worthy of respect $r membership.
They are composed of fallible men,
liable to be imposed upon and having
no way of searching the motives of
applicants to their orders.
We once witnessed funeral con-
Quoted by the Masons. The man who
carried the bible was an avowed inf
del, who- had often been heard to
denounce that book, God and
Christ in the foulest and most bitter
terms. Did his venal deceit prove
aught against Masonry?
Let honesty, frankness and a spirit
of Justice mark our judgment In this
matter. 1t does not take brains to
pick flaws or to be hypocritical. The
best man or woman who ever lived
was not perfect. Motives can be i'm
pugned and actions impeached, when
they may have been pure and right.
The church is the purest organiza-
ton on earth. 1t does more good,
blesses more souls, comforts more
hearts. bestows more charity, than
all other societies combined. With.
out it anarchy would reign, civilization
would be unknown, the reign of
heather superstition cover the whole
earth with its blighting curse.
He who would destroy the church,
would blot out the noblest institution
which ever gave an upward glance to
human hopes or threw a bright ray
across the dark valley of the. shadow
of death.

Currency has begun to move into

chants have been bearing heavily upon
their city correspondents, drawing
freely and expanding trade in antici
patton Of the good time in a near
future, and while some relief to the
ruling clOseness in financial affairs
may be anticipated, by merchants, later
on, it is expected hal our banks
will have all they can do and be
closely pressed for the next ninety
days. A large volume of money is
necessary to move cotton, while the
demands of merchants for their coun-
try friends is not likely to diminish
for a month or six weeks more. Local
rates Of discount are, therefore quoted
stiff at 8 per cent. The unsettled
financial condition of the New York
money market, noted yesterday, has
changed to one of comparative ease

fact that the Secretary Of the Nation
