Mr.. A. {. LaBarre, Lafayette college, Pa.
On the world wide stage Of action many
dramas are performed, and few recognize
the hidden hand Of the Almighty shifting
the scenes. making them serve his own
purpose. In earlier times might, not right,
was the acknowledged law. Great minds,
like those Of Alexander, Cesar and Napo-
leon, trampled on the rights Of millions, to
feed their own mad ambition. Our Bis
marck vainly tries to become another such,
but the scales have fallen from
the eyes OF men, and they re-
cognize the fact that resistance
to tyranny is duty to God. Force is fast
losing its dreaded sceptre, and right and
love are becoming enthroned in tho hearts

fever infested the South. No marble shaft
is needed to record those grand pulsations
their memory will be ever green in the
hearts of ali true lovers Of mankind. A
ticnd incarnate strikes down the nations
head, and at once the ilOod-Sates of SYM
pathy are opened. And when the nobls
life was rendered up the world mourned
an irreparable loss. The heart beat of Our
brethren across the sea was then heard as
distinctly as the English drum beat fol
lows the rising sun. The time has come
Tor martial strains to give place to
the songs Of peace. Down in. the
lowest plane of society the heart beats
tie same as in the halls of palaces. Ours
is an cventful age, and any observing stu
dent can predict the greatness about to be.
There is no place for him who would block
the wheels of progress. The drum. beat
calls the soldier to his duty, and the earth
wceps crimson blood the heart summons
TO the Offices Of love and silds the world
with peace. The drum-beat grows fainter
while the heart beat wakes stronger and
the day is not far distant when all man
Kind will be gathered together in one
grand brotherhood Of peace and love- The
speaker displayed fine orstorical ability.
and the applause that followed his effort
Was we'll deserved.
