memorate this day. Many of them
doubtless, were lain in spots that have
never yet been discovered by those who
would gladly erect some fitting testimon-
ial to their memory.< We delight to say
"a Merry Christmas" but sad Christ
mas is often the case.
We may all do something to make each
succeeding Christmas merry one; we
may all do something to drive away the
clouds from doubling or sorrowing
hearts; we may do something to teach
the downcast that He whose birth we
celebrate to-day, has left with us some
little CLEANS of the light and love. that
made his own life glorious. Christ was
kind, generous, self-sacrifcing; the sor-
rows and sufferings of others caused him
to suffer with them; he was only too glad
to lift up the fallen, strengthen the weak,
encourage the faltering. Let US all strive
to make our lives more like his-to learn,
and to teach, the lessons of peace, and
love, and joy, in the earth; to scatter sun
shine about our pathway, and to live so
that every Christmas may be, largely
through our efforts ga Merry Christ

Bro. Wilson, of the Ironton Regis
ter, has made tour of the Ironton
churches and writes at some length
regarding church choirs, and we take
it that he sighs for the good, old
fashioned, whole-souled, big-mouthed,
congregational singing. And SO do
we. But we like that kind Of sing
ing under the leadership of good
choir. There is as warm spirit of
devotion in the singing Of the hymn
as in the listening to the sermon, and
we are not certain but the difference,
If any. is in favor Of the hymn, in
that one never goes to sleep during
this part of the service. With good
choir, and good old-fashioned air,
the singing is grand feature Of the
devotional exercises. 1t lifts the
soul up to grander nights Of spirit
ual enjoyment-and sometimes lets 1t
fall again, too. We have seen, be-
fore now, some good old brother ad-
lust his spectaeles with look OF su-
preme satisfaction as the hymn was

Der, clear his throat spasmodically,
and get ready for business. At the
first peal of the organ he would look,
with some surprise over his spectacles.
At the next outburst look Of incred-
ulity would spread over his face, and
when the choir finally began to sing,
a look of utter despair. if not horror,
would drive all other traces from his
countenance. He felt that the organ
ist had suddenly become insane, and
the rest of the choir were trying to
amuse the organist by making "a more
hideous din than the instrument was
capable of. Such experiences as this
are not confined to any particular
church or town. Yet we are, and
should be, thankful for the grand
singing that we are permitted to hear
from time to time. A large congre-
cation, with good choir leading,
and all singing such good old hymns
as Coronation Nearer My God To
Thee and SO on, is an enjoyable, as
well as effective, part of public wor-
ship.

Evangelist Moody has been in Gin

be sort of deadness, as it were, on
the part Of churches everywhere, just
at this time. lie the members Of the
different church organizations desire
to start off in the New Year with a
prospect of successful work for the
Master, they must begin active and
earnest work at once. A church will
not run itself. There is no success
without untiring work.

Christmas Thoughts.

Twenty years ago this Christmas night,
we have very vivid recollection of
where, and how, we spent Christmas.
After long, wearying tramp on the pike
between Nashville and Pulaski, Tennes-
see, on Christmas day, we camped in. the
rain and mud, in our -pup-tents." We
were pursuing a company of Southern
brethren under the leadership of distin-
guished gentleman named Hood. What
strange scenes were those for Christmas
time! Along the route layzdead and dy-
ing men, and along the route large bodies
of men were flying, and other large bod
les of men pursuing for the purpose. of
capturing or destroying their fellow men.
1t was a scene strangely out of harmony
with the festive scenes usually exper-
fenced at Christmas time !! On the day
which commemorated the advent of
the prince of Peace, men were seeking
each others lives, with all the destructive
implements of modern warfare ! Let us
hope that this great country of ours has
seen the last of such scenes that it will
ever be called upon to witness.
On that drear night of which we speak,
there were doubtless thousands of moth
ers in the North, as well as in the South
who sat by lonely fresides and thought
of the stockings that had, in the long
years that had passed, annually appeared
by the chimney-side, but whose wearers
were now on far off fields, marching.
camping, fighting, for the protection of
their homes and the maintenance of their
Government. And to many this absence
should never be replaced by the joyful
coming again of the loved ones. That
Christmas, that day which called up
thoughts of the blessed child Jesus, also
called up in the heart of many mother
the dreadful realization that her own dear
son had gone out from earth forever, a
realization which burned into her very
soul, and caused the Christmas bells to
CRATE upon the ear with jarring, mock
ing sound. We have helped to lay them
away-these brave boys who had seen
their last Christmas upon earth, and
gone, we hope, to serve in the guard of
honor to Him whose coming we COM

KILLED HIS DOG!

Theodore Grose threatens to bring a
damage suit against the Democratic par
ty, unless he can get satisfaction out OF
them in some other way. He AYERS that
he owned a hound worth one hundred
dollars or less at this time of year-and
that on the night of the Democratic Ju-
bllee in this place, that hound stepped out
into the front yard to look at the process
sion. That after taking one look, and
hearing one crash of the noise, the hound,
as aforesaid, dived under the house with
such force as to break his back, causing
him to die of lock-jaw. He thinks that
he ought to have pay for his dog, as well
as for his lacerated feelings.

1t may even at this late day be a
surprise to many people that large
body of the southern people were op-
posed to the1Rebellion, and many
went into it under protest, and many
were forced into it at the point Of the
bayonet. That is the reason that
Jefferson Davis threatened the people
Of North Carolina that:if they dared
go back on the Confederacy, he would
''fill the State with battle and blood"
All men-of any age, as long as they
were not incapacitated by physical
infirmity from loading a gun-were
taken from their homes and thrust
into the Rebel ranks, and when these
people began to realize the superior
means for carrying on gigantic war,
possessed by the Yankees" +" when the
sound of battle was heard in their
own door yards, and their families
were compelled to sleep in caves in
the ground to avoid death from
Yankee" artillery, and these people
were becoming tired Of this state of
things, and dissatisfied, Davis threat
ened to shoot them into support of
himself and his associates as the most
horrible, bloody and murderous con-
spirators the world has ever seen.
That JEFF. Davis and his fellow-lead-
ers were permitted to live one hour
beyond time for trial, will ever be a
blot upon the history Of this country.
And now, taking courage from the
election Of Cleveland-which every
Democrat knows was accomplished
through scoundrelism and murder in
the South-this murderous old traitor
comes to the front with an attack up
on General Sherman.

Sheriff Boden, of Athens County,
called upon Governor Hoadly, few
days ago for troops for the Hooking
Valley. The Governor replied that
he did not believe the powers Of the
civil authorities had been exhausted,
and he could not, therefore, interfere.
This reminds us of the action of a Cigar
Makers Union, which few days ago
passed resolution that the only way
to have peace in the Valley at an
early day. was for the Governor to
withdraw the troops. The resolution
was forwarded to the Governor who
astounded the enthusiastic Cigar
Makers with the information that
there had been no State troops in the
Valley since early in October
