The Union Meetings.

We take the following from an ex-
tended article In the Monmouth Herald
on the union services being held in this
city, After speaking Of the belief Of o
member Of the church which the paper
represents, the writer says: Here are
six clergymen who have not obeyed that
positive command and hence our brother
does not believe that they have been
baptized In Jesus Christ, that they are
not members Of the Church OF Christ. in
shor. that they are not christians at all,
any yet he can work tremendously
with them. and thus give his influence
to the teaching and practicing of their
unscriptural and injurious Influence"
According to the above our Methodist,
Presbyterian, Evangelical and Congre-
gatienal friends stand no chance of be-
ing saved whiie they continue their
present course ofdoing their own inter
preting of the teachings of the Bible,
and when we think of the number who
have Gied in those faiths, our hesr ri is
wracked, and we can not find words to
express our sympathy for their descend.
ents, who are continuing in the same
course.

The growing power Of Chile is attracting
attention. The financial credit of Chile is
exceptionally good her foreign trade which
was barely $62,00O,00O in value in 1878. has
more than doubled SINCE and in 1882 exceeded
$l25,OOO,OOO the balance Of trade in her favor
being S2O,OOO,OO0. Her population, it should
be recolected, is only 100000, and our for
eign trade in 1880, when we had IS, 900 900 in
habitants, was much less in value. II must be
admitted that Chile is the controlling power ON
the vest coast Of South America. She could at
this moment command the Pacific coast Of the
United States. Any one OF her three iron
clads could sink every wooden vessel in our
wretched navy, and any OF our seaboard cities
could be laid under contribution by one OF
those formidable iron clads which after re-
ceiying the contribution, or destroying tho
city by bombardment, could quietly steam
away without danger. In the event Of any
complication between the United States and
Chile as to the control Of the Panama canal
Chile could give US serious trouble, especially
as she would probably be backed by England,
France and every other South American coun-
try

of living to be eighty. He has no chill

only family that remains to him. He
may marry, but should he not, it will
be a very interesting question as to what
he will do with all his wealth, when he
dies. Perhaps the question will puzzle
Mr.. Huntington more than any one else.
MIR. Huntington spends a good deal OF
time in Washington, and always stops at
Wizards. His habits are simple and
he makes no display. When he wants
to see q man he generally sends for him,
His agent here is Mr.. Sheriff., who

As the train slowed up at station

nodded his head at this very happy IL
lustration, and everybody thought the
conversation was ended, when a lone
some-looking individual on the opposite
side of the car remarked:
at doesn't take very smart man to
sell suspenders to dog"
Even the sleepy passengers. were
aroused at this startling remark by the
lonesome-looking individual, and the
commercial man asked in some surprise:
"Why notP"
"Because it doesn't"
