THE directors Of the Union Railway Com
pany and some holders of property in the vi
cinity of the present depot are still very far
apart in their views of the value of land, and
until there shall be an adjustment 1t is un-
warranted to say that the location of the new
depot is definitely decided For many reasons
it will A thousand pities if the new depot
should be located at any great distance from
the present one, and yet it is within the posi-
bilities that fancy prices for property will
force the directors to go elsewhere. The
location between Pennsylvania and Delaware
streets, with the main building fronting on
Maryland street has much to commend it,
both to the railway managers and to the peo-
pie, and if change is rendered inevitable by
the inability of the company to acquire land
at fair rates in the locality Of the present
structure, the site mentioned would be pref
cradle to any other that has been made.
That would bring the depot within block of
Washington street, and put it in the very
heart of business. The real estate committee
of the company will meet here on Thursday,
when the whole matter will be carefully gone
over again and, it is to be hoped some con-
clusion reached, to the end that work can be
begun promptly on the building

AT every turn in the situation Mr.. Powder
ly confirms the good opinion in which he is
held. In an interview in New York on Sun
day, he said: ~ find that it is almost an in
variable rule that when two men of average
intelligence are brought together, and are
both actuated by sincere desire to settle any
trouble, the desired end can be reached. "
These words should be framed and given a
place on the walls of every assembly-room in
the United States It is a reasonable rule
that neither employees nor employed want to
see a strike ordered. 1t means loss to all con-
cerned, and to the country at large Alittle
| forbearance will nearly always be sufficient to
enable the parties in dispute to come together
in some amicable arrangement. Speaking
of the troubles, but now about to be ad-
| justed after so much expense to all involved,
| he says: ri have no doubt that had Mr..
| Gould been home at the time the
| trouble broke out. and if I could have
| seen him, the strike would not have
lasted week, and all this loss of money and
property could have been avoided These
are the words of man Of sense, intent on the
best interests of the workingmen. There has
| not been moment that he has not shown the
best common sense in all the complications
that have so vexed the country. He is liv-
ing lesson to all the people. 1t is evident
that he may be followed in such disputes be-
tween labor and employers The Knights Of
Labor owe very much to his sagacity and wise
leadership, and the country is under obliga-
ton to him for saving greater troubles that
would have worked vast harm to all.

stSAM' JONES, the evangelist, has at last
concluded to give up the use Of tobacco, his
reason being that the habit was ga stumbling
block to Christians in the North" Now, if
he would only .forswear slang and adopt a
more genteel manner Of speech, he would be
even more effective as an evangelist than he
has yet been. If he has been correctly re-
ported, he recently declared chat the worst
enemies God has gotto-day are in the pulpits Of
this world" Had he referred to such monte
banks as the professional evangelists, who have
brought reproach upon the church, he would
have been right; but he did not refer to this
class of questionable opponents of Christian
ity, and went on to say: ri believe as many
preachers go to hell, in proportion to their
numbers, as any class in God Almighty's
world This is the bummer's estimate of the
best class of men in the world. It is the Ian
guage and sentiment Of the bar-room, and it
is probable that this gentleman got this low
estimate there. Such ribaldry, such insin-
cerity-for it cannot be accepted as the hon
est opinion Of careful, conscientious man
does incalculable harm to the cause of the
church and of morals. A glib talker, and for
years saturated with the language and opin-
ions of the bar-room, this man is unable to
forsake his old beliefs, but to the shame of
Christianity drags them into the pulpit and
parades them before mixed crowds that APP
plaud such preposterous expressions, in the be-
lief that until "Sam" Jones was raised up the
cause of Christianity never had sincere de-
fender. He is essentially egotistic, and has
done nearly or quite as much harm as good,
If, indeed, he has not done more harm than
good. Time will tell; but meanwhile the
Christian ministry should cease stultifying
itself by giving him place in the pulpit that
he degrades. It is blasphemous libel upon
Christianity to assert that as large per cent.
of its preachers are lost as any other class.
1t would be an insult to the intelligence Of the
people to make any defense of the pulpit
against the ISLANDERS of this man.

England's Drink. Bill.

The detailed statement of England's
annual drink-bill, recently published by
the London Times, while showing re-
duction from that of the previous year,
does not afford any marked encourage
ment to the friends of temperance re-
form. The report is signed by Rev.
Dawson Burns, ID, member of the
statistical society, who remarks that
the reduction of the drink-bill from
S631 10000 to 100000, 900 is probably
due more to the continued, and in
some quarters increasing, depression in
trade, than to the growth of thrift and
temperance in the country" Mr.. Burns
further says: " With the removal of
this depression we should most prob
ably find the drink-bill become heavier
and its social consequences become
darker" That this is not mere mat
ter of opinion but is reasonable infer
ence from the statistics of former years,
Mr.. Burns conclusively shows by CIV
ing the statistics from 1860 to 1885
inclusive, which prove that the state of
trade in England reflects itself in the
drink-bill of that country Mr.. Burns
says, in commenting on the statistics he
presents: The years of commercial
prosperity brought with them vastly
augmented expenditure upon strong
drink, and even when that prosperity
began to decline, the special impetus
that had been given to drinking habits
resisted for a time and yielded but
slowly to the stress of diminishing re-
source" In times of commercial and
industrial depression the people have
begun by economizing in other direc-
tons, but have only cut down their
drink expenditure when they were COM
PEELED to do so, The increase between
1860 and 1885 from 1926, 100000 to
$616, 100000 is of course partly ac-
counted for by growth in population,
but Mr. Burns takes the gloomy view,
which is probably only too well founded,
that the increase indicates decline, in
stead of progress, in temperance.

Sympathy.

As out into the night we stepped,
And turned our faces toward the town,
The stars chat hitherto had slept
Unseen) looked gaiy down.
And the pale moon threw off the cloud
within whose folds her light was lost,
Awakened by the whisperings loud
That thrilled the starry host.
For they their sister She her child
Beheld in thee, o radiant maid
Than whom fairer star ne'er smiled
In heaven, then earthward strayed
But when mark the deep unrest
That turks within thy lustrous eyes,
question If that choice was best
which led thee from the shes
For there thy steadfast sisters dwell,
Forever bright and strong and free,
Unmoved, though tempests rise and swell,
Calm as eternity;
Whilst thou-who chose another part,
And all that glittering state resigned
To wear on earth woman's heart
And sympathetic mind
Must suffer not those ills alone
That even selfish natures bear
Thou mak'st the widows loss thy own,
And dost her sorrow share
Thy neighbours grief is thine no less
Than hers; the sufferer turns to thee,
And solace in his deep distress
Draws from thy sympathy.
Thus others burdens lighter grow
Whilst thine are doubled. Ay, but he
Who set the stars in heaven doth know
What thy reward shall be

We find it more difficult to give
advise in the matter of wheat sowing
than on almost any other crop.
Wheat is such a doubtful crop, not
making over half crop in many in
stances, and under that amount the
largest half Of the time, that we
hardly know what to recommend. A
great many claim that it is throwing
away time to try to raise this crop,
while others think the failure is in q
lack Of proper care and attention to
the crop. We have no doubt but
that if wheat land could be properly
plowed, narrowed and we'll cultivat-
ed, and fertilized somewhat, it would
make vast difference in the out
come of this crop. We observe that
many of our most successful farmers
never fail to SOW wheat and this is a
pretty good argument In favor Of the
crop.

Thus far, and No Farther.

The Little Rock Gazette in ex-
planning how the negro gets into the
Wheel, says: "The committee on
constitution, appointed by the Grand
Agricultural State Wheel reported
in favor OF striking the word "white'
out Of the constitution. After a
lengthy debate the constitution was
SO changed as to permit colored PEG
pie to join the Wheel by organizing
separate and distinct subordinate
lodges, whose delegates would be adj
mitted to the National Wheel only
not the State Wheel. The debate
developed a decided opposition to
the color and smell of the negro, but
the elements so anxious TO prostitute
the Wheel TO partisan political pur-
poses, and get possession Of the col
ored men as voting machines, resist
ed, with the result above mentioned.
The colored brother is permitted the
run of the kitchen, but excluded
from the parIor. His vote is want
ed, but he cannot SIT down at the
same table with the white people.
