ANevv Haven Pastor.

The Springfield Republican says: Rev. T. s. Samson, of New Haven, preached at the State street Baptist church Sunday morning, taking as his text, "A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways" The truth which the preacher wished to impress was, that de. cision of character is the essential of success in religion as well as in the business of life
 By decisi on of character in religion is meant intelligent, loving submission to Gods power. The disco urse was divided into three heads. First, decision of character is indispensable to faith. Trials are a test of character, and indecision under trial begets unbelief Sec ond, decision of character opens up the avenues of knowledge which lead to faith. Third, decision of character inspires action.

4 rEssox IN DEBT PAY1xe.

d .
A pretty good thing on debt paying
was got of by q minstrel company in
this city. One dollar is made to pay .
debt of SO, by the following manner !;
End man No. owes the middle man 81,
but says he can pay him but. 81, and
crossing tho stage hands him . dollar.
The middle man owes end inan No. 2
50, but as the dollar he has just received
from end rnan No. I is all that he has,
he hands that to him. End man No. q
owes end man No. 1 q, and hands the
dollar he hrs Just received to him and
pays the half he owes. Three dollars
in debts have been paid, and end man
No. / has his dollar back. Then, as he
owes the dollar to the middle man, he
passes II over, and the middle man in
turn pays his dues to end man No. 2,who
in turn squares himself by passing IL
back to end man No. l. Thus debt
aggregating SO is paid off by 81, and
the first man has hismoney back. There
is good lesson in this. Cratgfordsvilie
