Explanatory Notes by Rev. John Hall,
d. d. LID, of New York-From The
Sunday School Worid-subiect: "Jesus
Comforting His Disciples"
Few passages of Gods word have been
more loved than the words of our lesson.
Life has been called avale Of tears Young
eyes looking ON life cannot see this, but there
comes q time when illness, poverty, bereave-
ment and expected death fill the heart with
trouble. Then the best and dearest help is
tho Son Of God saying, @Let not your heart
be troubled" The teacher viii naturally
recall the scene: the supper instituted, his
death realized, Judas gone out, Peter warned,
all the company subdued and sorrowftil, and
Jesus passing over his own coming sifferings
thinking of the sorrow Of his friends. This
consolation given by Jesus to the disciples in
view OF the shock it would be to them to have
him quit them is made doubly valuable by
the questions Of Thomas and Philip and the
answers to them They speak for us, as it
were, and the replies they get make the truth
more clear and precise 10 us.
First we look at the direct comfort " L
Their hearts might well be troubled. aWhat

NaturaIGasi I'm Ohio.

Professor Ed. Orton, State geologist,
has given much attention TO the subject
of natural gas in Ohio, and anything
from such high scientific authority will
no doubt be read with interest. The
Professor has examined the many gas
wells In the State, among them the re-
markable one lately drilled a mile or
two north of Bairdstown, Wood county.
In referring to this well, Professor 0rten
who made the measurements last week,
says
"Thirty miles due south of Toledo, on
lonesome farm in Bloom township,
surrounded on all sides by the original
forests, and more than half mile from
any occupied dwelling, the greatest vol
ume of gas ever sent out Of any well in
the State is now blazing. The Karg we'll
of Findlay, has thus far held undisput-
ed precedence in the new gas field, but
it must henceforth be content with sec
ond place. The daily yield of the Karg
well has been found by repeated
measurements to be 12,080,000 cubic
feet.
Measured on the same plan and by
the same instruments, the new we'll is
found to yield II, 421 1888 cubic feet each
day. The excess above the Karg we'll
would of itself be counted large sup
ply in many fields, viz, 34l 1868 cubic
feet per day. Reduced to other terms
of value the daily yield of the new we'll
is equal in heating power to 400 tons of
Pittsburg coal, or to the coal contained
in train of twenty loaded ears. This
is the theoretical value. Practically,
the gas has a great advantage, and
would be equal to much larger guam
tity of coal.
"In geological condition, the new well
duplicates very closely the Findlay
field. Like the Karg well it is situated
on the edge ofa steep and heavy descent
of the strata, though not of the surface,
In mile to the westward the rocks are
found to dip 120 feet or more. The slope
is somewhat greater at Findlay, but itil
related to the gas wells in the same way.
The Trenton limestone in the new well
lies but l ,041 feet below the surface, or
300 feet below the sea, which is the shall
lowest depth at which it has been found
at any point in the new productive ter
ritory. The confinement or utilization
of this new flood of power is impera.

A Dark Mystery.

Some of the colored citizens of Dallas,
Texas, are very much disturbed about
the possible approach of smallpox. The
following conversation between two of
them was overheard on Elm street:
II has about made up my mind to
hab myself vaccinated agin. Has you
eber had yourself vaccinated second
time before?"
"Yes, sah; Use been vaccinated the
second time free or four times before,
and hit tuck cherry time ceptin' de fust
timer"
AS the object of the colored conver-
sationalists is not to obtain informa-
tion, but to merely hear themselves
talk, they parted perfectly satisfied with
the interview. But what the party of
the second part actually intended to say
is dark and cloudy mystery. Tegas

the United States lover and above
assets available for it's reduction) has
been reduced from $2,756, 49,, 571 to
$l,37S,176, $50. The actual reduc.
ton is even greater than these figures
show lowing to certain changes made
IN the methods Of bookkeeping, and
amounts to 81, 522,31O,ll6, orabout
seventy-tw0 and half million dollars
per annum. The weight of debt per
capita and the interest charge per
capita have been very greatly reduced
ia these twenty years. In 1865 the
debt was $78.25 per capita, last year
it is only SCALA. In 1866 the inter
est charge was $4.29 PEI annum per
capita, last year it was only s3 cents.
There were not few in 1865, how
ever, who thought that this country
would never recover from the strain
