P.ease tell us what good sense tier
Is in the present manner Of expendine
the pititul sum now appropriated for
the support Of pubic FREQ schools.
We believe mere liberal and reason
able construction Of tho law would
bring better results to the children to

Of the manner Of applying tic small
fund at hand each year has convinced
us that ii IS radically wrong, and a
serious detriment to the progress of
education. We must either have a
public fund sufficiently large to keep
up free schools in the towns aud
thickly settled nelgllborhoods owe,
half the year, or apply the present
small fund to supporting schools es-
tablished by private enterprise.

Ohio, Virginia and Pennsylvania,

not the same, but the idea conveyed
is the Same, and it is one upon which
Il united democracy can stand. That

ONE MASTER ONE SERVICE.
REv. MR.. STEWARDS DISCOURSE AT CHRIST
CHURCH, WEST WASHINGTON.

sEv. MR.. STEWARDS DISCOURSE AT CHRIST
CHURCH, WEST WASHINGTON.
A most instructive and entertaining sermon
was preached at Christ church, Georgetown,
yesterday forenoon by Rev. Mr.. Stewart, the
words, "No man can serve two masters, for
either he will hate the ono and love the
other, or else he will hold to the one and de-
pise the other. Ye cannot servo God and
mammon." Matthew +vi,24lt
In discussing this text the reverend gentle
man said: simple and majestic is the word
and manner of Jesus when he calls
men to trust and hope in him.
To forsake all other reliance re-
nounce all confidence i'll the flesh and them
selves and absolutely confide in Him. His
voice is the voice of tho master, the voice of
the life giver penetrating the innermost being
and calling out the man himself into spiritual
health and existence. Observe with what
simplicity of language, and yet with such
faith compelling power He claims us for Him
self. In tho simple automatic statement thGt
no man can serve two masters He declares
what He feels and knows also that there
should be no devotion divided between Him
self and the creature. In Him we are find
that life which is more than meat. A
life giving sympathy and intercourse with
the inner man. To know Christ and be found
in Him,we must part with everything. The
| true religion is the having of Christ to reign
| over us and in us. 1t consists of having JOY
in Him. AS in our word the true religion is
the enthronization and defcation of Jesus
Christ, so the false religion, the pharisaic re
ligion the gentle and the heather religions
are the enthronization and deification of self
Have we no reason to beware of that doubly
refined selfishness which follows Christ fo
the loaves and the fishes, which in a spiritua
sense it may seem, but still in a self-seekinl
sense is now and ever asking with the younl
Pharisee, what shall do to inherit eterna
life p With Peter himself what shall W
have who have left all for Thee?' and witt
all the apostles, who shall be first? VIII
shall be greatost2 who shall have most il
Thy kingdom? We must die to self that W
may live for God. We must die to the worl
that we may really possess the world and no
be poisoned by it, in the power of Christ
victory over it. Do all things through Chris
which strengtheneth you"

The morning sermon at Waugh VI. e. church
yesterday was preached by Roy. W. IL. Black,
Of the Ohio conference, and followed by holy
communion. Mr.. Black, who is an eloquent
and descriptive speaker, took as tho topic of
his discourse, "The Lords supper" and ar

plicant would you administer the Lords
Supper to dying soldier who had not been

we do not want you in the army" answered
Mr.. Black.
The discourse was interspersed with similar

A Card TO tho Public.

Thatcher, Primrose & West, in reply to

but Commended the poisoned chalice to the
lips of those who mixed the ingredients,
Less than a month ago, when the young and
clever Armstrong minstrels oame to Wash
ington, the Barlow Wilson party followed
them up and billed pointedly against them.
They did largely at Ford's, and did not "cry
out" Now, being compelled to face the same
music and to take their own medicine, we
have a wall of despair from Barlow, Wilson
& Co.. and the public is asked to support an
occasional resident rather than talent. Com
parison would be cruel, but at all times ICON
sistency is jewel" Thatcher, Primrose &
West simply ask the public to sustain bost
those who serve it best, and keep in mind
that the great minstrel company will not be
in Washington before Monday, Sept. 10.
