If he bought Con. Virginia. it was

credit for his shrewdness. He has
only himself to blame that he was
not shrswd. When ordinary men
are drawn into a stock specula' ion

pity. 1t can hardly he said that
Russell Sage is one Of that class, SO
long - he is party to the water
ing of Western Uaion, four shares
for one. On " hi III he compels The
public to pay heavy dividends. and
at the same time refuses to pay the
employees anything more than
mere living. One telegraph opera.
tor testified. three days ago, that
not one operator in one hundred
could lay up one cent. There are
not ninety-nine out of every clio
hundred telegraph operators who
are spendtnrifts. hence the fact that
tho wages paid are begg.rly, is
plain.
We Judge from the tone of Sage's
words that he is good deal dis
turbed over the possibility of
iacksy's joining with Roberts in
the postal telegraph business.

"Smart Minister'S"

People have different ideas as to what
constitutes smartness in a minister. A
boy was once telling me how smart his
minister was. He said that one day he
saw him coming across the fields, and
that when he came to stone wall che
jumped right over it," Another regarded
his minister smart because of his physical
energy having "smashed pulpit and
several Bibles in a short space Of time.
Some are smart because they possess the
faculty of making the worse appear the
better reason, and some because Of their
ability to preach great sermon from a
small text, as But" and some because
they have voice to make the "old meet
ing.house ring" like thunder. AS some
were once praising the sermon of min
lister of this class, to whom they had just
listened, DR.. Todd remarked ITO some
the Lord has given lungs, and to some
brains" AS for ourselves, we do not fan.
cy the term "smart" as applied to minis
tiers. We should regard it as inappropri-
ate as applied to some of. the best minis
ters, living and dead, that have blessed
the world. Such ministers were Paul,
ard Edwards, and Whitfield, and Griffiu,
duu dySOu, ANU buCu mlulblcIS arc ODuT'
peon, and r. S. Storrs, and John Hall.
We prefer to have ministers of this class
characterized as cable Minister'S" or
"godly," or "useful," or "sound and
faithful" When we hear minister
characterized as "smart," we sometimes
think that were the devil to be trans
formed into an angel of light, as we are
told that he sometimes is, and to occupy
pulpit, he would be regarded as the
smartest of all M my that should listen
to him would go away enthusiastic over
his smartness. He seems thus to have
usurped some pulpits. And his smart
ness appears in his success in prevailing
upon his hearers 10 adopt false doctrine,
and in running souls. The more ability a
minister has the better. But his ability
should be sanctified and consecrated. He
should lay all his talents at the feet of
the great Head of the church, and employ
them in building up his kingdom, and in
saving the souls for whom he died. We
have known of some ministers of ordina-
ry talents, who have been much more use
full than some who were eminent for their
smsrtness. Such ministers we're DR.. Al
yah Hyde, and both the Hallocks, Moses
and Jeremiah. The Lord raise up many
other such.-New Y0rk Observer.

Don't Let Worry Kill You.

As go and come between these two
vast cities linked together by the bridge
who're grandeur grows on one the oftener
he crosses it, am more and more struck
with the expression of anxiety that most
faces wear. Dickens said, slanderously,
perhaps, that it was the habitual and dis
tinctive mark of the American people.
Well, now--wby do we worry? Our so
licitude is generally over things that
never in fact disturb us. We fancy we
are coming to want, when in truth we are
in comfortable circumstances; or that our
business may 60 down, when it is all the
time increasing; or that somebody is not
thinking 30 we'll of US as he ought, when
positively it does not matter an iota what
he thinks; or that the child NAV get sick
and die when it has a slight cold or that
we shall fail in our plans because of i'm
perfect strength, forgetting that our only
right way is to do what in us lies, and
leave the rest to Higher Power. Aud
all these thing eat up our vitality, render
ing US fretful, prematurely old and miser
able. The Earl of Derby used to say,
at is not work that kills, but the worry
lest we shall not be able to get through
it." Sometimes l think it would be we'll
for us to initiate the example of Goethe's
clear-headed and cheerful mother, /" who
always begged her family and friends to
hide from her every coming appearance
of misfortune, and only to mention that
which was past and had to be inevitably
supported" She could endure actual
hardship better than the suspense and
anxiety of dreading its coming and her
son, the foremost poet of Germany, was
like her. Prophets of evil were the hid
eous company which he studiously
avoided. He thought it was time enough
to worry when he got into straits or, as
Abraham Lincoln admirably expressed A:
It's no US to attempt to cross bridge
till we come to it," Thousands are cross
ing imag mary bridges, and dreaming of
its going down with crash while they
are on it, with the horrid abyss beneath.
Do the duty and live up to the privilege
of the present hour, and above all do not
worry-indeed, as the Master said, "take
no thought for the morrow."-The Talker,
tn Christian at Work.

The Day OF Judgment.

There Is no set time, no appointed
place. His handwriting is on every wall.
His day OF judgment dawns with each
sunrise; sometimes we see it, sometimes
We are blind. For every man, his day of
of judgment comes when his vision is
cleared to behold himself in the divine
light. As we are social beings, to society
must come also at some period his vindi-
cation or his inculpation. Never has the
divine method of administering justice
been more siguallv illustrated than in the
story of Thomas Carlyle. He began life
and closed it with a remarkable absorp-
ton in himself. So powerful wa. his
self love that it embraced his family and
conferred dignity and worth upon all who
were OF his blood while most persons not
akin to himself he despised and rejected.
Hebelieved his opinions 80 important as not
only to warrant but demand for their pro.
mitigation a sacrifice of the amenities and
oblig ations of life outside of his family
circle. He fought long and bitter fight,
and he conquered. The world at first ig-
nored him, then ridiculed him. finally
yielded aud took him at his own valuation.
Long before his death he was the Usage
OF Chelsea" and prophet without honor
in his own country. But God is the only
public opinion. The day of judgment
came; came to Carlyle before he had gone
from the world; came to the world while
yet his name was at ito brightest. There
was no court, no arena, no array of Grim.
inal or scenic display before men and an

himself, without sound of trumpet or
scratch of pen or intent of heart, his his
tory was writing itself, his condemnation
was silently keeping pace with his sin.
BY his side moved always slight figure,
the figure If woman whom he loved,
despised, tramped upon, lamented with
unavailing tears; woman who loved
him, revered him, inundated herself to
him, recorded him. Nothing was further
from her thought than to judge him but
through her he is judged. The heart that
held him highest brought him lowest.
Many have sought to break his fall-in
vain. We may quarrel with Froude, but
the question Is not now Froude's day of
judgment; it is Carlyle's. 1t is not a
mere literary judgment that is to be
passed. Carlyle is a prophet of life,
He was teacher of men. He believed
himself divinely commissioned. He pro-
claimed the gospel of common things

Words Well Spoken.

Mr.. Spurgeon, with characteristic plain
ness and vigor, said in recent sermon,
"When a man gets to cutting down sin,
pairing down depravity and making little
of future punishment, let him no longer
preach to you. Some modern divines
white away the gospel to the small end
of nothing. They make our divine Lord
to be- sort OF blessed nobody they bring
down salvation to mere Suitability, make
certainties into probabilities, aud treat
veIities as mere opinions. When you see
preacher making the gospel small by
degrees and miserably less, till there is
not enough of il left to make soup for
sick grasshopper, get you gone. AS for
me, believe in the colossal (; q need deep
as hell and grace as high as heaven. |
believe in pit that is bottomless and
heaven that Is topless. believe in an in.
finite God and an infinite atonement, in
finite love and mercy: an everlasting
covenant ordered in all things and sure,
of which the substance and the reality ia
an infinite Christ.

blame for the selfshness of their hus-

The patents granted to the Ladd are
for most valuable improvements, where
by stout, heavy centre rim gives perfect
protection to the movement, and thick

A Bad Sign.

There are few more certain evidences
of the deterioration of mans moral ma
ture than the increasing tolerance with
which he views low standards of conduct,
as held by others in that sphere of society
in which his lot is cast. Honesty natur.
ally revolts from dishonesty, purity from
impurity, virtue from vice, and although
goodness and mercy are tolerant of the
sinner as person, they are never tolerant
of the sin. That world-wesr which brings
a man to look contentedly, or even with
pleasure, upon forms of evil in others
which before would at once have reused
within him the feeling of indignation at
the wrong and of pity for the offender, is
very far from being thing to be proud
of; for it reveals a wrongful acceptance of
things as they are, and Il growing disbe.
lief in man and in the redeeming power of
Him who has made man. There are many
hateful things in the conventionalisms
which rule in human society; but there is
none which is more hateful than that
which accepts evil as necessary evil, and
Is willing to make the best Cor the worst)
of it as it is. What can be said of the
moral worth OF community in which it
can still be matter OF question whether
Writ or honesty is possibility Aud,
above all, what can be said of Christian
who repeats approvingly the cynical ques.
ton of the profigate P? To be so tolerant
of evil that contact with it evokes no
feeling OF antagonism, is sure evidence
of moral and spiritual danger; to be so
tolerant of it as to believe that little but
evil exists, or is to be looked for, is q Ger.
tain sign of accomplished moral degrade
tion.--SuSday School Times.
