want to say word to you, dear sis
tiers, whose hearts glow with love for the
missionary cause, you who gladly deny
yourselves little luxuries and ornaments,
that you may send the bread of life to
perishing souls and teach them Of that
spotless robe without which they cannot
enter to the marriage supper of the Lamb,
you whose patient fingers are never weary
of the stitches they take in your mission
airy sewing, and who hoard your pennies
for this cause with misers eagerness,
and spend them with lavish prodigality
when by any means they will flow into
that treasury. Gods blessing be with
you. You are Laying up treasure in
heaven, you are sowing good seed; God
grant it may spring up and bear fruit an
hundred fold.
But there is one little neglected corner
of the field that want to speak to you
about. Did you ever think of the heather
who move around you day by day min
istering to your wants, serving you? AS
you have dealt to them their daily por-
tions with bountiful hand, have you fed
their souls too? 1t has surprised me to
find how ignorant they are sometimes OF
the simplest truths Of our gospel, these
negroes who are in our midst, who have
grown up in sight Of our homes, perhaps.
It has been but two or three months since
| asked our dining-room servant, a boy Of
fifteen or more, who Jesus Christ was.
" dunno ma am, he replied. Yet this
boy had spent all his days within the
sound of church bells, and had served in
more than one Christian household
Dear friends how shall we meet these
souls at the bar of God What shall we
say when He requires them at our hands2
Can we answer in the words of the first
murderer, Am / my brothers keeper 2'
Do you know how easy it is to SOW this
heavenly seed ? Have you realized what
golden opportunities for service, for doing
work for eternity, are going by? One
little text each evening, taught and ex-
planned to your cook, after her busy tolls
of the day are over, and her unframed
mind has repose and leisure to take it in ;
simple lesson to the needless boy, in
the intervals of his tasks, an oft repeated
lesson it may be; gospel chapter, a

simple hymn, in the quiet Sabbath alter
noon; all these we can give SO easily,
yet who can tell what sheaves may not
fill our arms for the heavenly garner,
from this sowing, if only our earnest
prayers go with our labors, as they must
in all work which God accepts and blesses.
And by that uniailing law of Gods APP
polntment, He that watereth, shall be
watered also himself, you will find the
lessons you teach them, throwing a new
light into your own souls. You will see
new beauty and power in the texts.
And this bond of Christ-like love for their
souls, will give you a new patience with
their many faults and imperfections, aye,
and new watchfulness over your own.

Jesus, Still Lead On.

Jesus, still lead on,
Till our rest be won
And although the way be cherries,
We will follow, calm and fearless.
Guide us by thy hand
To our Fatherland.
If the way be drear,
If the foe be near,
let not faithless fears o'ertake us.
Let not faith and hope forsake us:
For, through many foe,
To our home we go
When we seek relief
From long felt grief
When oppressed by new tie nptations,
Lord, increase and perfect patience.
Show us that bright shore
Where we weep no more
Jesus, still lead on,
Till our rest be won
Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, console, protect US.
Till we safely stand
In our Fatherland!

Now or Hereafter-Which d?

The subject of this article is salvation
by Jesus Christ.
There are three questions for every
professor in this Saviour to ask himself
questions very important for every such
one to answer truthfully to himself. "He
that saith, know Him, and keepeth not
his commandments, is a liar, and the
truth is not in him
First. Am a sinner? 1t seems hard
thing for some men to know that they
are sinners before God; but it ought to
be an easy thing for one who processes to
serve the greatest living Being to know
this fact. If one has not found this out,
then one has not taken the first step to-
wards salvation. Scripture says, There
is none righteous, no, not one; there is
none that Understandable, there is none
that seeketh after God They are all
gone out of the way, they are together
become Improbable; there is none that
doeth good, no, not one" If the Bible
speaks truth, you are sinner, con-
demned sinner; there is no getting around
it. Il you are able to save yourself, you
are all right; otherwise, you must look
to another source for salvation, or be for
ever lost.
Second. Is Jesus Christ the sinners
friend? Undoubtedly. "For there is
none other name under heaven given
among men whereby we must be saved. :"
He was manifested for this very purpose.
All mankind were dead in trespasses and
sins when with Almighty power he APP
peared among men and gave his very
life's blood ransom for them. He came,
not to call the righteous but sinners. His
was free-will offering, and the man who
despises it, tramples it under foot, will
forever receive the curse and be banished
amid eternal depths of gloom, never more
to see the light of celestial glory, or taste
the Joys of the heavenly mansions. To
despise this Jesus, the beloved Son of the
Father, is to make ones own bed in hell
His mission was one of love; His life on
earth life of sorrow, ending with igno
minious death all on behalf of sinners.
Only divine friend could have suffered
this for mans salvation. His tender
words, "Come unto me, all ye that labor
and are heavy laden, and / will give you
rest, will continue to bring forth fruits
of righteousness and draw reluctant
hearts to him.
Third, Have I received salvation
This question does not mean, Have l
Joined the church? Do / sit regularly
with God people and on stated occasions
commemorate His dying love? But it
means, Am I saved? not, am I going to
be saved ? or may expect to be saved? or
hope to be saved2 but the question for
every one is, Am l saved Saved now.
Salvation is a gift; it cannot be pur-
chased for any price that man can pay.
" For by grace are ye saved through faith,
and that not of yourselves; it is the gift
of Cod" "But the gift Of God is eternal
life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Now can any one so dishonor God as to
think that He would take back that
which He has given away? To think
that He, "Who hath saved us, and called
us with holy calling, not according to

TELEGRAPHIC
The Electric storm.

Chicago, lin an interview the night
manager Of the Western Union Tele-
graph Company stated that the electrical
storm throughout the country still con-
tlnued and regular business was carried
on under great difficulties. The disturb
Rnce is unlike any heretofore experienced,
ss 1t appears to act upon the wires in
strong waves, causing the constant chang
ing OF the polarity current. Reports
from OnlshG state that the aurora is very
brilliant at that point, the illumination
being almost as bright as day. st.
Paul reports the heavens have a blood red
color, the display being grand and fearful.
4he great storm extends es far west as
Salt Lake. Cheyenne reports the ilu-
mlnatlon at that point IS bright sc day.
Inc telegraph company deyis-d a new
tflck to best the aurora. When, on ac-
count OF The great induction, it was im-
possible Win one wire, they discovered
that by taking two wires from the ground
between any two given points, ana join
Ing their ends together, instead OF the
same being grounded. q current was
formed that could be successfully
worked. In this way eight wires were
made to do the service Of four between
Onlcago ana Buffalo. All long wires are
broken up into short circuits, by which
means New York and far western points
are reached.
New York, 1S.--Tho electric storm,
yesterday, extended from Boston as far
vest "a Ogden, and taiS morning its in
fuence is still felt in certain
localities, so that tslOgraphic communi-
cation ia considerably interrupted. Vsri-
Gus experiments were tried by telegraph
ers during the prevalence of the storm to
work the wires, and dispose Of the great
accumulation Of business, bat with little
success, until it was discovered that by
taking two wires from the ground be-
tween two given pointA, and joining
their ends, circuit was formed that
could be opeaed.

The U. P's New Bonds.

New York, 1.-THE Tribune has this:
The Onion Pacific Railroad Company
has had under consideration for some
weeks plan of making a second issue
of collateral trust bonds. The new mort
gage which was prepared, differed from
the former trust bond mainly in the fact
that it WAS MADE continuous. Securi-

The new bonds we're to bear 5 per

make sinking fund. sidney Dillon
said yesterday: The Iumors regarding
the negotiation Of the new bonds are
correct. We have signed a contract with
Blake Bros. s. Co. by which they will
take the bonds as fast as We want the
money. can tell nothing more about
the matter because the firm asked that 1

arrangement, What I hava told you is
all that need 10 be said. We have made
the contract, and whenever we n ed the

curities and take our pay for the new

The Pending Election.

1t is essential to our success hereafter
in State elections that We should carry
the approaching Congressional elections
Defeat at this time would revive the
hopes and animate the hearts of the
opposition in all future contests. The
organization of the foes to Democracy
would at once spring into life. Republi-
canism would at once stand up on its
feet. That element, the triumph OF
which no true Mississippian can con
template without the gravest appreh en-
sion for the safety of our institutions,
would assert itself and no man can tell
with what result. Should it succeed
we close our eyes to woes which would
follow. The Democracy would then
unite. We would then have no discord
in our own ranks. The tragic scenes
of other days, which We had hoped the
State would never again witness, would
be re-enaeted The old contest would
have to be made anew. The fruit of
yearsof patient toll would be lost, Anar-
chy would prevail. Ignorance and vice
and folly, corruption in high places,
wasteful expenditure of public monies,
a proud people trodden under foot
all this We should see; all this the fall
elections involve. In other States it
may be different. In this State for some
time to come, there is but one issue.
All know what it is. We trust, there
fore, that We shall have no holding
back; that all will unite in presenting
to the common enemy an unbroken
front.
The administration is watching with
greedy eyes the contest in this State.
Driven back at the North, it looks here
to recuperate its strength. IF the man
ayers to whom this State has been
farmed out make their declarations
good this year, the hard earnings
wrung from the widow and the orphan
by Hubbell circulars, (which will not
be objected to in any official quarter)
viii be placed at their disposal for the
of their forces in future.
Let US see to il that the managers do not
deliver the goods, and do not receive
the reward.
