pOTIpHAR'S WIFE,

Rev. William NJ. Kincaid preached
last night to large congregation in
the First Baptist Church, on Eddy
street, between Jones and Lcavcn-
worth, He took for the subject of
his discourse, "Joscph in Potiphar's
house," as portrayed in the thirty
ninth chapter of Genesis. He de-
scribed Joscph's departure from his
home us a slave in caravan, bound
for Pharaohs Capital; his subse-
qucnt arrival in the city; his pur-
chase by Potiphar; Captain in
Pharaoh's guard, and his installation
in his house as ovcrseer of all his
goods and chattcls. Concluding the
story, he told how Potiphar's wife
endeavored to scducc the young
Hebrew and how he resisted her
solicitations and fled from her house,
leaving his garment in the mfaithful
wifc's hands.
Commenting on the manner in
which JosoOh became beloved by his
aid said;
Joseph was q prosperous man.
When / say prosperous | do not
mean rich in worldly wealth, but he
valued integrity and principal above
gold and silver. In order to be
prosperous in the true, grand sense
of the term, one must be happy and
must possess nobility of soul, coupled
with a high respect for man and
divine approval. Chance did not
figure in his case. Nor does it at
any time. Chance did not rise Hugh
Miller from n lahorer in mine to be
great geologist and scientist.
Chance did not raise the common
day laborcr Cook to the great explorer
Cook.
1t was no chance that raised
Abraham Lincoln from a farm hand
to become the head of great nation.
Nor is it genius that accomphshes all
these things. We work out our own
lines. We carve our own histories.
The highest round on the ladder of
success is where we can clio the most
good to our fellow man"
Speaking of the attempt of Poti-
phar's wife to corrupt Joseph and
inveigle him from the paths of recti-
tude, he said:
"Joseph,s Victory was a moral
victory over his sensual appetite.
The secrecy that surrounded him
and the woman when she made her
enticing offer: the RIGHTEOUSNESS of
the period and the vuluptiuousness
of the times all conspired together to
render detection impossible. Joseph
risked nothing in yielding to her
desires. On the other hand he rislled
everything in refusing to accede to
her wishes. Her influence could de-
throne him from the high station to
which he had been raised by Potipher,
as overseer over a great place. Yet
above all he remembered his duty to
to God. Only ~ years of age, he
resisted this woman's advances. A
grandcr exhibition of true manliness
and greatness never was conceived. "

GLADSTONE IN THE LUMBER
BUSINESS,

l cannot help thinking there is
something just trife ridiculous in
the idea of the Prime Minister of
England distributing to his enthu-
siastic Supporters trees which he has
cut down with his own hands, or
rather, his own axe. An enterprising
working chairmaker of Lambeth has
been fortunate enough to receive, in
answer to his request, substantial
memento of nv. Gladstone, in the
shape of n beech tree Is feet long,
and weighing Il ton and Il half. The
chairmaler wishes, it seems, to make
two arm-chars and two tables, which
can be handed down to posterty.
This is all very touching, but it is
quite possible that some near descen-
dant of the chairmaker may dispose
Of the chairs and tables by public
auction. which would be sad. Another
working man has been inspired by
the idea to write the following letter
to Mr.. Gladstonc:--

merry on the Y S. ship Wyoming.-
The ship left its moorinrs. under
Lieut.. Comdr. Elmer, at O'clock. and
steamed out of the Severn into the
Chesapeake Ii was intended to sail
out, but there being no wind, the
cadets We're limited to showing their
knowledge of seamanship by running
up the royal yards. They then took
charge of the steam department of
the Wyoming, acting as engineers
and coalheavers. The middle of the
Chesapeake being reached, the gat-
ling gun was run out and fired TO
ascertain the range of the target,
which was found to be LOO Yards.
Firing with an eight-inch rifle gun
began, the distance being gradually
lessened until 900 yards was reach,
at 4O0 yards, the target was struck,
which brought round of applause
from the Board of Visitors and the
ladies who were on the Wyoming as
spectators. At 1920 the steamer

WantOn Destruction.

Our attention has been called of
late to the partial destruction by some
miscreant, of the lower portion of the
brick wall enclosing the mansion of
the lete Commodore Voorhees, in this
city. Such wanton acts of vandalism
are intolerable, and the guilty par
ticipants should be, if discovered,
severely punished. This is one of
the results that follow idleness, and
brings to mind very forcibly the old
adage an idle head is the devils
workship." There is city ordinance
we believe, prohibiting the 6efacing
or destruction of property, and our
police should see to its enforcement.

New Burial Ground.

The colored population of our city
are waking up to the necessity of
procuring better burial facilities for
their dead. The Mt. Moriah Church
has purchased four acres of ground
from Julian Brewer, agent, adjoining
the National Cemetry, at $l75 an
acre, and Asbury N. T Church, two
acres of w. H. Butler at 5000 an
acre-the latter donating $50 toward
the purchase. This shoI Ia be an in
ceative to stir up our city officials in
this much important matter.
