 'I do not think the charge that barely de- frayed the expenses of the church will be considered as anything against my character by any reasonable person"
 The minister then proceeded to the pulpit his text Isaiahs s26th chapter Sd and 4th verses: Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace. whose mind is stayed on thee, because he trusteth in thee.'
 "Trust ye in the Lord forever, for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength"
 In his opening remarks the preacher said his whole course of life, under all circum- stances, had been of conciliatory nature. His duty as 8 minister of the gospel he con- sidered to be @ minister of peace His de- sire was that the followers of Christ who are travelling to the beautiful city beyond should be peaceful The wilderness of itself is not bowling one, but it is the beasts within it |; through the wilderness, but there is rest beyond. The enemy goes about as 8 roaring lion seeking whom he may devour; but the Christian looking upward sees the breaking clouds and moves for ward. The Christian needs 8 re- study the holy scriptures we find that there is just God who rules all things and who will certainly work out the purposes of his will We do not view God as a terror but as a bountiful benefactor to whom we can go in every hour of peril. Where can we have true enjoyment except from our bountiful God? Proper views of God are essential to right feeling toward him. They that trust God must have confidence in him and conf- dently believe in his word and trust him in everything and then 1t can be said with Job, ''I know that my redeemer nveth."
 Though troubles come upon us God will sustain us through them all, if our minds are stayed upon him. We must submit all our ways to God. They may be very hard at times, but we must submit. There may be others who set themselves against us, but if we are right we should stay there. If man is at peace with God there none is of this get ting mad and showing disposition to tear each other to pieces. If man has this Christian peace he can say,

True source OF the Mississippi.
Buffalo Timcs1


IL has now been discovered hat Lake
Itasca Is not veritas caput; and Lake
Glazier, discovered in July, 1881, by Capt
Willard Glazier, must be regarded by all
future generations as the true source Of the
Mississippi Lake Glazier lies above and be-
You'd Lake Itasca, and its waters have an
elevation Of probably three feet above that
lake, being connected Herewith by u swift,
small stream. Lake ltasca Is composed Of
three arms, extending In the form Of a
t%refoil, having a length Of five miles and an
average width OF a mile and a half. The
upper or southern end OF It's middle arm APP
parently terminates In u swamp, which
might easily have deceived anyone not
familiar with the country. But Cheno-
wagesic, Capt. Glaciers Indian guide, who
had for years used the region of these lakes
for his hunting grounds, readily made his
way through the reeds and rushes at the
mouth Of the connecting stream. Lake
GlAzier at its outlet presents another barri-
cade OF reeds, through which the party made
their way in their canoes.
Lake Glazier is about n mile and a half in
length, by a milo in breadth Its shores, in
stead OF being low and manhy, us those Of
many Of the neighboring lakes, present finely
wooded slopes and surround tho lake In what
would have been the shape Of a perfect oval
had not a bold, rocky promonotory indented
It's southern end and given to it the outline
Of a heart Lake GlAzier is supplied by three
feeders. Elk, Excelsior and Eagle creeks, now
named in order Of their Importance; and as
uniting these waters in one common reser-
voir, this lake is undoubtedly entitled TO be
regarded as the veritas caput the true head
