MISCELLANEOUS.
PATIENCE.

Patiently climb up the hillside OF iife;
Patiently meet with its turmoil ana strife;
Carry its burdens and cares IS they're due.
Patiently, hopefully. all tho way through.
Patiently strive; whom the hopes arc do
layct.
And thy aims for the right are By OWL be-
trayod.
Let thy heart not grow weary and faint not
nor fail.
Strive patiently. earnestly, truth must pro-
vail.
Patiently wait, when the cold breath Of
blame
Unkindly, unjustiy would tarnsh thy name.
Fear not but. thy light will break forth ~ the
day"
Faithfully. steadily. keep the right way.
Patiently boar with tho proud glance OF
scorn.
And the harsh word which enters the soul
like thorn;
OH lot not their poison envcnom thy heart,
Tho arm OF the Mighty's thy shield from their
dart.
Patiently bow, when sorrows dark cloud
May break on thy sky and Its brightness On
shroud;
when thy hopes are all faded thy joys are
all crushed,
And thy soul in its anguish Is bowed to the
dust.
Yet fret not nor murmur. though deep is thy
gloom,
And tho slight of their eyes hath boon
Quenched in the Tomb,
For the calm voice OF Patience will soothe
thee 20 rest,
As Il whispers Thy will must DO donc"-it 10

Then patiently. humbiy and hopefully 70
Up the highway OF life through its turmoil
and WOO,
Till the voice OF tho Master shall sound the
well-done.
Through faith and through patience thou
hast overcome.

MADE BLIND THAT HE MIGHT
PREACH.
Excitement Over a Boy Who Says That He
is Divinely Inspired,


RALEIGH, n. c., Jan. 15.-Romulous
Sturdevant, a well-known man who lives
in st. Mary's Township, about six miles
from this city, has a son, John, sixteen
years old, The boy told his father on
Thursday of last week that he had %rccciv.
ed a divine injunction that he must
preach the gospel to all nations Of the
earth, and that in order to inspire the
people with confidence in his call he
would be made blind for two DAYS and n
night. In accordance with this prophecy
the boy was stricken blind on "Wednesday
night. lie says that he will be restored
to sight tonight. If the people do not
believe in him he says that God will send
another test. The case has created so
much excitement here that Yesterday \.
b. Broughton and John +. Raw. two
prominent men of this place, went out
and made an examination of the boy.
They found him blind and heard him
preach last night. While he breaches he
lies on his right side and appears to be in
a trance. His sermon was to 200 people
and was taken down by Ray and Brough-
ton and will be published in full to.mor-
row. 1t is said to be a remarkable pro.
duction. Great anxiety is expressed TO
know il John receives his sight tonight.

THE SUCCESSION BILL PASSED.
Pushed Through the House without
Amendment

tIhtIlNitis nv.
WAsnINGToN, Jan. 15.-The House to.
day by n vote of 1873 to =, passed, with
out amendment, the Senate bill t o proyilc
for the Presidential succession. The
general debate continued for several
hours and speeches in favor of the bill
were delivered by Mcssrs. Dibblc, Of
South Carolina, and Baker, of New York
who are members of the committee. Mr..
Ryan, Of Kansas, also spoke, criticising
some features of the bill and advocating
a constitutional amendment on the sub
ject. 1t is a noteworthy fact that not a
man who spoken in the entire debate ,
Democrat or Republican, gave his nm
qualified support to the bill; all admitted
it to be imperfect in important respects,
and yet with three or four exceptions the
Democrats voted solidly against every
amendment proposed by Republicans,
and no Democrat had the courage to Of
fer an amendment himself. McKinlcy's
substitute, which provided that there
shall always be a President pro tenn. of
the Senate and a Speaker Of the House
was defeated by Il vote Of 1OS to 151. \
like fate overlook Mr.. Ryan's motion to
recommit the bill with Instructions to the
committee to bring in q joint resolution
proposing an amendment to the Constitu-
ton to provide for the filing of n vacan.
cy in the Presidential office.
The Democratic determination I'm ruch
the measure through without amendment
or an opportunity for full discussion was
evident from the Beginning. There was
no necessity of such haste, and the rcfus-
al to remedy admitted defects in the
measure WAS wholly unjustifiable under
the circumstances But the Democratic
leaders thought they had discovered Il
party advantage TO be gained by the pass
age of an imperfect bill and they were
not slow to seize the opportunity.
On the final vote thirty.scven Republi-
cans were recorded in the affirmative as
follows: Allen Massachusetts,, Atkinson,
Baker, Brown Cndiana), Buck, Butter
worth, C%utcheon, Ely, Gallinger, Hay
den, Herman, Iliestand, Hiscock, Hill,

An Unprotected Treasury.

An Unprotected Treasury.
The Assistant Treasurer Of the United
States at New York is required, pursuant
TO law, to give bonds in the sum Of $500
coo for the faithful discharge Of the du-
ties Of his important Office.
II must be assumed that security in this
amount is deemed essential to the adc.
quate protection of the interests of the
Government, Otherwise the sum required
would not be so large,
The Treasurer of the United States ut
Washington gives bonds in the sum of
$3.50, 600 only.
This officer, asserting an authority
which is disputed by able counsel, both
Of whom have held the Office of United
States Attorney in that district, has taken
possession of the Assistant Treasurcr's
office there and is exercising the functions
OF the Assistant Treasurer.
Even if his course in this respect is
lawful, it is n matter of very serious
doubt whether the sureties on his official
bond would be liable Tor any loss or de
fault in the office there, and it is certain
that the security which the people now
have for the safckccping and proper dis
bursement Of the public moneys in the
New York Assistant Trea.urer's office is
less than usual by several hundreds Of
thousands of dollars.
The responsibility for this state OF
things seems to rest wholly upon the
President. If he had nominated Il man
for Assistant Treasurer who was willing
to accept the place, and the Senate he'd
delayed action upon his name, the prcsi-
dent would have done all he could, aud
there would be no cause for criticism.
But why should millions OF the pnh!ic
funds be left in the hands of Il custodian
whose title to hold them is by no means
clear, and who certainly has not given
anything like the security that other men
just as honest and irreproachahle. have
been obliged to furnish?

THE admission of the will Of the late
William II. Vanderbilt to probate with
out any controversy ought to serve as an
example in this age, when to break the
last testament of a deceased person seems
to be the especial enjoyment Of his or her
relatives and heirs. To those who re-
member the effort to set aside Commo-
dorc Nanderbilt's will i must be 4 crate
full relief to know that there is to be no
repetition of the scandals aired a few
years ago in the court room. The later
generation Of Nanderbilts have given no
stronger proof of sturdy common sense
and of respect for public opinion than
their refusal to permit any unseemly
wranglc over the disposal of the princely
fortune left them by their father.
