cometh with ten thousand Of His saints. !"
Yes; although all unworthy of such
companionship We want to come with
Him on that day to see the last of the
old world, which was once our resi-
dence. Coming through the skies
myriads of chariots rolling on and
rolling down. By that time how
changed this world will be. It's des-
erts all flowers, it's rocks all messed and
lichened, its poor houses all palaces,
its sorrows all joys, its sins all virtues,
and in the same pasture field lion and
dove. Now the chariots of cloud strive
the earth, filling all the valleys. and
cokering all the mountain sides, and
hating in all the cemeteries and grave
yards and over the waters deep, where
the dead sleep in coral sarcophagus. A
loud blast of the resurrection trumpet is
given and the bodies of the dead rise
and join the spirits from which they
have long been separated. Then Christ,
our King, rising i'll the center chariot
of cloud, with His SCARED hands wavee
the signal, and the chariots wheel and
come into line for glorious ascent.
Drive on! Drive up! Chariots of cloud
ahead of the King. chariots of cloud on
either side or the King. chariots of cloud
following the King. Upward and apast

and across intinitudes. higher, higher,

clouds His chariot, and who through
condescending and uplifting grace in
vites us to mount and ride with Him!

The Stranger Was Tired.

A laboring man lounged into one of
the chairs of the parquet Of the Acad-
envy at Providence, r. L., just before
the performance and promptly went to
sleep. He wasn't comfortable, how
ever, and after few uneasy turns he
removed his coat and tossed the gar
ment into the aisle. He then resumed
his nap, but still missing the luxury OF
his lounge at home, he began to slowly
draw off his shoes. By that time the
audience had become interested, and a
couple of ushers assisted the tired
stranger to the street. -Pittsbayyh DIS.

Royal Relationships.

The most curious fact in connection
with the royal families of Europe, says
the San Francisco Chronicle, is the
manner in which they have allied them
selves to one another by marriage. So
closely interviewer are these ties that
the peace of Europe would be assured
if the words "son," daughter" SON
in-law," "daughter-in-law,:' uncle, :"
cousin" and the other terms that are
thought necessary to imply family af-
lection had any meaning whatever. But
they have none at all, OF very little, as
in the case OF Russia and England,
where the Gar is the brother-in-law of
the future sovereign of the British
island through his wife the Princess
Dagmar OF Denmark, and also of the
second son Of Queen Victoria, the Duke
of Edinburgh, through the marriage
of that prince with the Princess Alex
androvna.
The Prince of Wales is allied to
nearly half the crowned heads OF Europe.
He is uncle OF the Emperor of Ger

wife OF the Duke Of Edinburgh; of
Louis Nv. Of Hesse, widower of his SIS
ter Alice; of Christian of Schleswig-
Holstein, husband of his sister Helena
OF the Princess of Waldeck and Pyr-
mont, widow Of his deceased brother
the Duke of Albany; of Prince Henry,
OF Battenburg, husband Of the Princess
Beatrice; Of the Gar of Russia; OF
Frederick, heir to the throne OF Den
mark; of King George of Greece, and

The Prince Of Wales has seventeen

grain, but meat still sells well, and the
wheat crop last year was really very
good-nearly thirty-four bushels an
acre all over; rents, generally, have
fallen from fifteen per cent to twenty
five per cent; feeding stuffs, manures,
implements of all kinds and labor cost
less and rates are lower. Even what
might be called fixed fees, such as
school-masters' and doctors charges,
have been necessarily reduced to meet
the altered circumstances of the farmer.
Household expenses, again, have be-
come much lighter, not only because the
prices of food and dress have come
down, but also because at last the ten
ant-farmer is growing wise enough to
see that he, as we'll as other people,
must learn to make both ends meet.
"The truth of the matter is that, if
the present prospects of a good harvest
are fulfilled, the English farmer will be
in better position than he has been
since 1879. On our own family prop
erty, in Worcestershire, we have not
lost one tenant. The rents, that were
raised fifteen per cent during the Cri-
mean war, were lowered by the same
percentage four years ago. My cousin,
Sir William Dyke, who owns 1000
acres of heavy clay-land in Kent, and
who had 1000 acres thrown on his
hands in 1888, has relet them all but
two farms, though of course at re-
duced rent. Our neigbbors, the Duke
of Beaufort and Lord Fitzhardinge,
both of whom had many farms begging
for occupants, have none vacant

Cattle Prospects.

We believe that the long lane in low
values is near its turn and that there
can be no doubt as to a marked and
rapid advance in prices during the pres
ent and following seasons. There are
many and substantial reasons for maxi
ing this prophesy. The barely nominal
calf crop for the three years last past
in the region referred to as having suf-
fered so severely from winter losses;
the wholesale liquidation INDUCED in
by the ranchmen in the same localities
as result of their misfortune; the
great and unprecedented marketing of
immature cattle for the past eighteen
months, as a consequence of the fnan-
cial straits of hundreds of rangemen
and cattle companies, brought about by
going in debt for great quantities of
land and cattle at the high prices pre-
vailing few years since-consider
these, and the vast unsexing work of
the spaying knife in Kansas, Indian
Territory and Texas, together with the
forcing of the beef market by the
drouth-starved cattle of the summer of
1887, and we can readily understand
why the conditions are ripe for re-
action in cattle values. With the de-
mand constantly increasing, and the
sources of supply to some considerable
degree impaired, there is no other con-
clusion to be reached than that cattle
must materially advance. We feel safe
in predicting a marked improvement in
prices of beef cattle for the coming
fall, and for 1889 almost return to the
market values prevailing in 1882 and
'S3. We advise owners who can to
hold their beef cattle for the coming
advance, and to investors we believe no
such propitious time for range and
cattle investment will occur again for
many years.-Democrdt, Albuquerque,

A Little Thing May Decide.

A Cunarder put out from England for
New York. 1t was well equipped, but
in putting up a stove in the pilot-box a
nail was driven too near the compass,
put the ship two hundred miles off her
right course and suddenly the man on
the lookout cried, " Land ho!" and the
ship was halted within few yards of
her demolition on Nantucket shoals. A
sixpenny nail came near wrecking great
Cunarder. Small ropes hold mighty des
TIMES. A minister, seated in Boston
at his table, lacking word, puts his
hands behind his head and tits back his
chair to think and the ceiling falls and
brushes the table and would have
crushed him. A minister in Jamaica
at night by the light of an insect called
the candle-iy is kept from stepping
over precipice of hundred feet. F.
w. Robertson, the celebrated English
man, said that he entered the ministry
from train of circumstances started
by the barking of dog. Had the wind
blown one way on certain day the
Spanish Inquisition would have been
established in England, but it blew the
other way, and that dropped the ac-
cursed institution, with seventy-fve
thousand tons of shipping, to the bot
tom of the sea or flung the broken and
splintered logs on the rocks.-Er.

Afraid Of Being Laughed At.

There came Ito US as we were going
to press with this number young man
from down East with pathetic story
of the manner in which he had been
swindled by band of sharpers here in
New York. We Immediately proceeded
TO headquarters with the victim, where
the necessary assistance was guaranteed
him for recovering his money; but
finding that his name would go into the
papers, he decided to go home. 81 do
not want my friends to laugh at me-"
he said, as he left our office. The fear
of being ridiculed really is the secret of
the successful operation of so many
swindlers here in New York. If every
one who has been duped would imme-
diately come to this Office and make
known the facts, we guarantee that
within very short space of time we
should be able to rid the city of all the
various charlatans and impostors who
lie in wait for the unsuspecting and
unwary stranger visiting the metropolis.
The fact that one has been imposed on
by these sharpers is nothing to be
ashamed of. The ablest and most en-
inent men in the country are often en-
shared by them-as, for example,
Charles Francis Adams not long ago in
Boston. Do not hesitate for moment
to make known the facts to the au-
thorities when you have been trapped
by swindlers. Agriculturist.
