THE MULTITUDEs.

POPULAR ENTHUSIASM. The five thou
sand people who had been fed by JESUS IN
the wilderness as described in the last Les
aon were 40 strongly impret sed by what he
had seen and heard that he was the expecteo
Messiah. that it is said they were disposed 10
take him by force and make him their king
fJobn vi. 15). They had no higher idea OF
the Messianic kingdom than the outward
and political, and would hasten Its ADVENT
by forcing JESUS, if possible, to proclaim
himself king, and employ the divine powers
which he had so frequently manifested III
driving the hated Romans from their lana
and its rule. But JESUS had not proclaimed
the advent of such a kingdom. His Kingdom
was not a kingdom of the world, though to
be established in it. 1t was heavenly KING
dom. and therefore spiritual. 1t was reign
of truth and righteousness in the soul. 1he
ye;on of COP IL, his otUn soul sCos the perfect
realization of the only kingdom ne so's9ht 70
found IL, the souls of men at large ana u
had nothing in common ecith the uutgor pa
rade of an earthly royalty.
JESUS PRUDENCE.-What the excited
multitude proposed would surely preclpitafe
a disastrous conflict with the ruling authorl-
ties. and prematurely end his earthly career.
JESUS had withdrawn from Galilee to AVOID
this danger, and had sought the secluded re-
eion "beyond the lake F" to enjoy rest and
peace with his disciples. 1t was now EVIL
dent that neither rest nor peace could be
found even in "the DESERT" He prepares to
dispense the multitudes who had followed
him and to return again to Galilee, perhaps
to his home in Capernaum. He induces the
disciples to enter their boat and proceed
along the shore toward Bethsaida MARK vi.
As. See map), while he dismissed the
crowds, proposing, it may be, to join them
at that place.

JESUS PRAYS.

ON THE MOUNTAIN.-When the crowds
were dispersed it is said that JESUS went
alone in the mountain to pray, and remained
there in solitude till late in the evening, long
after night. 1t appears to have been his GUS
tom to pray regularly and frequently mark
i. So; Luke v. 16; XII u; and at times OF spe-
cial exigency in his life and ministry to en-
gage in special and protracted prayer. On
the occasion of the choosing of the Twelve it
ia reported that he remained in the noun
tain all night engaged in prayer (Luke vi.
12). The occasion for protracted prayer, in
the present instance, appears to have been
the strong popular desire to make him a king
John vi. 15). AS on former occasion,
when tempted in the wilderness (iv. 81
worldly dominion was offered him upon con-
dition of pursuing a worldly policy. His
earnest teaching during the day concerning
the Messianic reign luke tx. III had not
corrected the popular misapprehensions; he
could not bring the people to his views; he
must not conform to theirs. He would seek
the Fathers guidance and aid in prayer. He
turned away for a season from all inter-
course with the world to commune alone
with the Father whose will he came to ac-
complish in the earth.
"Cold mountains and the midnight air
Witnessed the fervor of his prayer"
OUR EXAMPLE.-JEsUsi is our example; if
he needed prayer for spiritual life and
strength, much more we. We need constant
communion with the Father; and there are
times when our needs are more pressing than
at others; when help can come to us only by
ascending the mountain heights of spiritual
experience, and lifting up our souls into the
atmosphere of heaven, and when nothing can
serve us but the harmony of our wills with
the Divine will. mot my will, but Thine"
is the burden and spirit of all true prayer.
Genuine prayer is all-powerful and ever
avaling. 1t is purely spiritual attainment
and exercise, opening the depths of the soul
to the full and filling influx of the mind and
heart and will of COP the Heavenly Father.

THE GREAT PHYSICIAN.

EVENT ABOUT DOING G00D."-When
the storm on the lake was over, the boat in
which JESUS and the disciples we're soon
landed on the shore in the valley of Gennes-
aret, at or near Capernaum, we may pre-
sumo from the record of John. During the
day which followed the eventful night JESUS
discourses in the synagogue at Capernaum
upon the Bread of Life, the theme having
been suggested by the crowds that followed
him because of the supper in the desert on
the previous day. His fame as mighty
healer caused to be brought to him the sick
from all quarter of the country, and those
who even touched his garments were said to
have besn effectually cured thoroughly
saved. The record of Mark describes a
journey of JESUS through Galilee when he
healed the sick in the market-places of the
towns and cities Mark vi. 54-56). This was
his last public ministry in Galilee.
DANGEROUS FAME. = The jealousy of
Herod, the hostility of the Pharisees, and
the fanaticism of the masses, manifested in
their disposition to precipitate conflict
with the ruling authorities, constrained him
to withdraw from the country, and we next
hear of him in Pr oenicia, in the neighbor-
hood of Tyre and Sidon, healing the daugh-
ter of Canaanitish woman. His compass
sion and tenderness were manifested wher-
ever be went. We ought to nurture in our
selues the same spirit, born Of consciousness
of COPS faithful love, and wrought into ab-
sorbing loue # HIS great family. TITS spi''-
itual, not physical, healing zoe most need. IL
is as a Saviour, the Physician Of souls, that
lUe should 90 to JESUS for his blessing.

JOSEPH P. TENNEY.

Joseph Parker Tenney was born in New
Ipswich, N. H., Aug. Ia, 1908. At the age of
eighteen, with bis parents, he removed to
brother and sister, removed to Oxford, o.
The next year he found home for many
years about fifteen miles south east of Rock
Island, Ill, being a pioneer in that region,
and his house an inn for travellers. In 1889
he married Almira r. Merryman, and to
them were born ten children. five of whom
are still living. The mother died in 1868. In
December, 1886, he, with son and two
daughters came to Southern California, with
Mr.. Timothy Merryman, his brother in law,
and made their home with him in the new
town of Florida, near San Jacin'o, San
Diego county. For the past two years Mr..
Tenney suffered greatly from cancer, and
went slowly down to death, often praying
that he might thus be released from his suf-
ferings. He was good man as husband,
father and friend, a generous neighbor, an
honored citizen, and kind to the poor and
needy. He was an earnest Universalist for
many years, and found great comfort and
cheer in his faith when the dark and trying
hours came. He selected his text and re-
quested Rev. J. j. Austin to preach the SER
mon at his funeral. The tender hands of
loving children and friends cared for him in
his last days and nights of pain. At last on
the first of December, 1887, his freed spirit
sprang away from the mortal agony, and en-
tered the house of many mansions, which the
Tether has prepared for his children. A
loving sister writes: "We feel that our brother
is at rest, in the perfect sense of the new
BIRTH" The funeral service occurred on
Dec. 2, st the residence of Mr.. Merryman,
in Florida, Cal. j. j. AUSTIN.

heart, and certainty that come what might
to Us or TO her, that heart would overflow
in prayer whenever she thought of us. We
went out quietly, but Gun sure with no less
light hearts, and who cen say to-day that we
are not all better women because of her low
ing prayers and our knowledge of them.
Yes, fellow teachers, let us never despair
of our scholars, however incorrigible they
may seem. Let Us keep on in the good
work with cheerful hearts and let us never
neglect to say the helpfal word to the dis
couraged. nor the warning word to the
needless. Above all let us not forget to
pray for our scholars and our schools.

JUDGE CRESHAM'S EXPERIENCE

and see things the morality of which

have little confidence in any man
who says he never did anything but
what was right. He is either liar

with criminals, when l was on the
district bench, taught me that there
was no man devoid of manhood.

The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1888-10-06

Even the plainest language may some-
times DO misinterprete1, and by those
whose views on matters in general are
properly considered reliable.
Yesterday afternoon an APPEAL re-
porter was accosted by Capt James ii.
Martin, who, through friendship, desired
TO keep THE APPEAL informed as to the
turn the cotton business was taking. Said
he:
81 am afraid you were about to make a
mistake this morning on the cotton bag
ing question. II you will study Dun's
mercantile agency reports, you will find
that an unusual number OF country mer-
! camille establishments are failing. This
alarming situation is due altogether to the
positive stand business men are taking
with regard to the bagging trust They
will not use jute bagging and some of
them, | am informed, are 80 violent in
their opposition that they threaten 10 burn
their crop before they will surrender. But
the effects are even more iar-reaChing than
the country merchants. was talking with
an Arkansas planter and mer-
returned from New York. He said that
the wholesale dealers there were becoming
greatly exercised, and feared that the tie
up OF cotton would drive them TO the wall.
A great many southern country merchants
buy goods direct from New York On the
strength OF these sales largely, and reason
able assurances that accounts would be
settled early in the fall. the New York
dealers have contracted debts 10 the
amount in several instances, of $3.50, 900.
| These debts were 10 bo removed in Sep
| tcmber aud October by collections from
southern customers, 81 900 here, 81, 900
there, and 30 on; but they are not making
the collections. In consequence, there is
a feeling Of nervousness about filling any
sout hern orders"
These views OF Capt. Martin, well in
tended and thankfully received, were con-
sdcrcd rs an argument In favor OF the
farmers accepting the situation ut present,
! and taking steps 10 down the trust when
| the country would be in no danger OF
| financial panic. An examination Of Tux
| APPEALS columns revealed but one cdito-
| rial allusion to the trust aud farmers, and
that in line with the idea OF the captains,
as follows
"Tho Augusta Chronicle advises lis
farmer friends TO send in their cotton 10
fast IN possible. The business strain Of
the season does not warrant experiments
or delays. Bad, II continues, as the bag
ging trust ", n money stringcncy is worsc.
In the present state Of affairs, with the
crop three weeks late, and the disaster re-
sulting from floods and fcvers, the farmers
and factors arc in no condition 10 fight the
bagping trust. Notes are due on money

chants. Guano cotton will soon bo called

rushed in ~ rapidly AZ possible This is
