ouR MINISTER'S SERMON.

The minister said last night, says he,
"Don't be afraid of givin';
If your life ain't worth nothin' to other
folks, - .
Why, what's the use of livin'f"
And that's what say to my wife, says J.,
There's Brown, the misTable sinner,
He'd sooner beggar would starve than
A cent towards buyin' dinner.
tell yOu our minister is prime, he is,
But couldn't quite determine,
When l heard him givin' it right and
left,
just who was hit by his sermon.
Of course there couldn't be no mistake
When he talked of long winded prayin',
For Peters and johnson, they sot aud
scowled
At every word he was sayin'.
And the minister, he went on to say,
There's various kinds of cheatin',
And religions as good for every day
As it is to bring to meetin'.
/ don't think much of the man that gives
The loud anens Mt my preachin',
And spends his time the followin' week
In cheatin' and overreachin."
/ guess that dose was bitter enough
For "a man like Jones to swallow;
But | noticed he didn't open his mouth,
Not once; after that, to boiler;
Hurrah, says |, for the minister
OF course | said it quiet
Give us some more of this open talk,
It's very refresin' diet.
The minister hit 'em every time,
And when he spoke OF fashion,
And riggin's out in bows and things,
As woman's rulin' passion,
And comm to church to see the styles,
| couldn't help a-winkin'
And a.nudgin' my wife, and says ],
"Thafs you,"
And guess it sot her thinkn'.
Says l to myself, that sermons pat
But man is queer creation,
And Pm much afraid that most of the
folks
Won't take the application.
Now, if he had said IA word about
My personal mode of sinnin',
I'd have gone to work to right myself,
And not set there a-grinnin.
Just then the minister says, says he,
"And now I've come to the fellers
Who've lost this shower by usin' their
friends
As a sort O moral umbrellas
Go home" says he, land find your faults,
Instead of huntin' your brothers
Go home" says he, ''and wear the coats
You tried to fit for Others"
My wife, she nudged, and Brown, he
winked
And there was lots O smilm',
And lots O. lookin' at our pew,
1t sot my blood abilin'.
Says to myself, our minister
Is gettin' little bitter,
I'll tell him when the meetin's ont, that
Amt at all that kind of a critter.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Dedication of the Washington Mon
ument, Etc.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23, 1885.
The Washington Monument has
been turned over was the startling
announcement on the street yester-
day at II o'clock. This did not
mean that it had been overturned,
but that it had been turned over
transferred from the monument
committee, who have had it in
charge for 3G years, to the people Of
the United States. The ceremonial
programme has now been completed,
and the monument stands alone in
its peerless grandeur, "divinely tall
and most 'divinely fair" the nOblest
tribute to the noblest man.
The six thousand who composed
the civic and military procession,
and who were out from 10 A. NJ nm
til , 7. Nj, standing for most of the
time massed in square about the
monument, had a foretaste of the
horrors OF war. 1t was bitter wealth
er and many, chilled to the bone,
were prostrated with cold.
The procession from the monu-
ment to the Capitol was we'll ordered
and imposing. have seen many
professions move along Pennsylvania
avenue, but yer before have l seen
the police succeed in keeping the
streets clear; their, success on this
occasion argues well for the much
larger procession which will
move along the same route
next week, on the 4Sh. OF
March. The side walks on Pennsyl-
vania avenue are very wide but
the spectators have been disposed to
eneroach upon the street, to crowd
the column in procession, and
break the view from all but the front
line. BY successful disposition oi
mounted policemen, the avenue was
kept perfectly clear, and all were en-.
abled to enjoy the spectacle. Major
Dye, the chief of police, received a
letter of thanks from the Preside nj
for his success in managing the
crowd.
First came General Sheridan in
full uniform, mounted on black
horse. He was followed by -four
aids and large body of mounted
men. Next in order came the U. S.
infantry and artillery, and then the
volunteer military and civil organi.
zations. These were followed by a
long line of carriages, decorated
with the stars and stripes, in which
were members OF Congress and JUS

little to adj in reply To Your letter-
of March 26, 27 AMI 2S. Your let.
t"rs brcathed true spirit of frank
ness they have already given myself
and your mother great pleasure.
Yon must study TO he frank with
the world frankness is the child o.
honesty and courage Say what ven
mean to do on every occasion. an
take it Tor granted YOU near to ia
tlght. II friend asks a favor YOU
should grant it If it is reasonable !; il
not. tell bin plainly why you cannot +;
you will wrong him and yourself b,
equivocation of any kind. Never
do a wrong thing to make a friend
or keep one; the man who requires
you to do so is dearly purchased al
Il sacrifice. Deal kindly but firmly
with all your classmates YOU wild
find it the policy which wears best.
Above all, do not appear to Others
what you are not. Ii you have airy
fault To find of any one, tell him, not
others, of what you complain there
is no more dangerous experiment
than that of undertaking To be one
thing before mans face, and an
other behind his back. We should
live, act and say nothing To the iDj U,
ry of any one. 1t is not only best
as matter of principle, but it is
the path to peace and honor.
I'm regard to the duty, let me in
conclusion to this hasty letter, in
form you that nearly a hundred
years ago there was a day of re-
markable gloom and darkness-still
known as the dark day-a day when
the light of the sun was slow Y ex
tinguished as if by eclipse. The
Legislature of Connecticut was in scs-
sion, and as the members saw the
unexpected and unaccountable dark
ness coming on, they shared in the
general dread and terror. 1t was sup
posed by many that the last day
the day of judgement--had come
honr moved an adjournment. Then
there arose an ola Puritan legislator,
Davenport, of Stanford, who said il
the day had come he desired to be at
his place doing his duty, and there
fore moved that candles he brought
in so that the house could proceed
with it's duty. There was quietness
in that mans mind--the quietness
of heavenly wisdom--an infexihle
willingness to obey present duty.
Duty, then, is the sublimest word in
our language. You cannot do more !;
you should never wish to do less.
Never let me and your mother wear
one gray hair for any lack of dut,
on your part.
Your sffectionate father,
r. L. LEE
