lby his first marriage, one daugh-
ter, Mrs. Isaac ID. Stamp, Of
New Orleans and two sons by
his latter marriage. He was
frequently a member of the
State Legislature previous to
the late war, In 1861, though

THE HOG AND BEEF SUPPLY.

The agricultural department
at Washington reports the
shortage of hogs in the greatest
hog producing States as follows:
In Kentucky the shortage as
compared with last year is %
per cent; Ohio, 30; Indiana, %;
Illinois, "a; Iowa, 20; Missouri,
30; Kansas, 5; also a small de
crease in the Southern and Mid
die States. AS the supply of
hog product will have a great
influence ON the future price of
beef, tho reported scarcity of
hogs would indicate high prices
for all kinds of meats for the
next twelve months. Unfortu-
nately for Texas her beef sup
ply for 1883 will be even short
er than the present shortage of
hogs in the great pork State,
Ohio, and, if other grass States
are much better off they have
their cattle hidden, so that buy
ers have mot been able to find
them. AS to how soon the
present shortness in our meat
supply can be overcome de-
pends on too many contingen-
cies to venture guess, bnt we
will have to increase our meat
products very rapidly to keep
pace with the growing popula-
ton, and at the present rate of
increase of population in the
United States we will have to
double our meat supply by 1890
in order to allow to each inhabi-
tant their present allowance

May boast y jewel rare,

Mr.. Sankey believes that the
singing in churches should be led
,by a choir. That the choir should
be at the same end Of the church
whore the minister is, either behind
u beside him. The choir and min
ister are not independent perform
ers the one to preach and the 9th
sr to sing They unite in leading
the worshipof the congregation,
and oughtto be in harmony with
each other, And in order to have
harmony, the singers ought 70 be
Christians. How can q man praise
God acceptabiy when there is no
love for God il his heart9 a great
deal ofths proyerblal trouble with
church choirs grows out Of the
fact that the singess are not Chris
tians. Mr.. Sankey does not object
to quartet choirs, but he wOnld
have . large chorus choir around
Ahs qusrte TO Join il certain parts.
He likes solos and special pieces by
trained singers, yet he would have
only one Of tWosush pieces durins

He says that the minister sheuld

had nothing to DO With Praising
Hcd hsministershould nos only

The Ripley advertiser. [volume] (Ripley, Miss.) 1843-1897, 1883-05-19

Choirs ought to behave like ladies
and gentlemen. They have no
business to be whispering, or firt-
ing, or reading newspapers while
the minister IS preaching They
ought to sing distinctly, so that the
congregation can understand the
words. The churchis DOT an ope-
ra, to crafty taste for artistic n;u-
sic. H. should furnish the must
that will please and edify the ma
jority of the worshipers, and not
merely a fastidious few The chll-
dren should be brought to the
church and accustomed t0take part
in the singing. In Mr.. SpuFgeOn's
church all sit together and great
pains are taken to train them in
singing. Ministers ought to pray
Tor a special blessing on the sing
ing. 1t is a means Of grace as we'll
as the Scripture reading and the
sermon. And finally. the hymns
and the sermon ought to be in har-
mony.

OLD LOVE.

I met her, she was thin and old;
She stopped, and trod with tot
tering feet;
The hair was gray that once was
gold,
The voice was harsh that once
was sweet;
Her hands were wrinkled, and her
eyes,
Robbed of the glrlish light otjOy,
We're dim; ! felt sad snprise
That | loved her when a boy.
But yet something in her air
Restored me TO the vanished
time;
My heart grew strong and seemed
to wear
The brightness Of my youthful
w prime.

Its touch recalled ghost Of JOY,
| kissed it with a reverent sigh;
For / had loved her when boy.
