The Taylor Missions Again.

A short time since | wrote short
letter concerning Bishop VIM. Tay-
lor and his work. 1t is the purpose
of this letter to relate few inter
esting items about the wonderful
missions he has been establishing
in Africa during the past four wears.
These are self-supporting, the church
at home giving officially nothing to
sustain them. Begun in 1885, these
new missions have received the mark
ed appreciation of Heaven. Meet
ing with kindness in nearly all
cases from the natives and the gov
eminent that CONTROLS the land, they
are fast charging their borders, and
it will not be long before the Congo
and Caralla rivers will be dotted far
into the interior with the most pros
porous mission stations already Sc
missions have been opened, and
they have either builded or purchased
a mission house at nearly all of
these, and they have done this with
out mourning a dollar of debt These
missions have been established in
populous countries and where are
good prospects of winning souls.
The king and chiefs sign contracts
for the founding of the missions,
and in some cases gladly promise to
give the land, burn the brush, and
furnish timber for the house if the
Bishops will surely supply the teach
ers. The land must then be cult
waited for the sustenance of the mis-
sionaries, and schools must be open
ed as fast as possible. School, farm,
mechanical and evangelistic work
are all united in these self-support-
ing missions. A new steamer is in
process of construction for use on
the upper Congo; this will be a
great aid in transporting supplies,
and will further the interests of the
work in many ways. All this in

A tomato catsup which possesses
great keeping qualities can be made
from this recipe: Boil the toma-
toes till soft enough to put through
a sieve to remove the skins and
seeds. Allow a pint of vinegar to
each gallon of pulp. Mix two table
spoonfuls of black pepper, two of
salt and three of mustard to a smooth

The Voice of the Dead.

A missionary describes a certain
road of $50 miles between two mis-
sion stations. which is lined on either
side with a continuous graveyard
cit is rough, narrow path, but it
is the caravan trail of the ages.
Hundreds of thousands of slaves, on
their way to be sold, for 200 years
trod this weary way mid tears and
blood-poor captives whose fathers
had been slain because they dared
to defend their homes, and their
aged kindred were burned up in the
destruction of their town.
Think of walking this $50 miles
with the heather dead on both sides.
"Many dark night, on that dreary
way" said he, 81 seemed to hear
the dead speaking to me, and say
ing, 20 messengers of God, why
came We not this way to speak words
of comfort to us before we died p"
The voice of the dead is coming
to us from the countless grave-yards
in India, China, and all lands where
those now passed away never had
the privilege of hearing the glad
news of salvation. The heather are
diving by the million each year. In
deed can we believe it, with every
setting sun, $4,000 heather fall into
their graves and they die aoithout
Christ. They never heard of Christ.
They never saw bible Their life
ended in despair, for hope of i'm
mortal life they never knew; their
dying eyes closed without a ray of
light from the throne, having never
seen the smile of their Redeemer.
But they are dead, and it is too late
to save them, and $4,000 more will
go to-day, reaching their hands in
vain for the help that comes not
we have the help they need; God
tells US to give it to them. The
voice of the dead unites with the
voice of the living in calling for the
Bread of Life for the heather before
they die. From the graves of the
lost will come curses upon US if we
heed not the call. r. j. C..

Glad Tid1ngs.

bring you glad tidings: There
is Being in whom every earthly
beauty, everything you have loved
or sighed for, every excellence, ev-
cry virtue, has its home and centre.
Every earthly good, compared to
His, is but as the mist that hangs
above the ocean, of the same make,
but in density, in vastness, in power.
how different And with all these
in Him, there dwells in everlasting
union, an almighty power, an al
mighty wisdom. There is One who
is wise and righteous and just, be-
cause these are the very essences of
itself. Can you not love Him? Is
love to such God altogether an
impossibility Would you not love
Him if you saw Him? This love
blends over you; into your sinful
life and mind would He come to-day
and because He is love, all sin, all
evil, all foolishness, He can forgive.
Did you never know this? Yes, you
know it, but you forget. But the
soul that has no love, would be at
odds with Him forever, would be
friendless, would be hopeless, in the
great home and centre of all friend
illness from all hope, would find for
its foot no resting place even in
Heaven. Don't you see it?
/ say again, love well. o! seek
to bind you with the golden chain,
the weak, the suffering, as well as
the strong and the brave. Love
well, and though your teaching may
cease, your knowledge vanish away,
and your tongue at last be silent,
love well-love is the path that leads
to the life beyond-and you will be
missed on earth and waited for in
Heaven.

Cucumber pickles are the ones
most frequently made for family
use, but it is surprising how many
persons never make really frst-class
cucumber pickles, and how few of
such pickles put away in autumn by
good housekeepers possess the keep
ing qualities they should. They be-
come soft and tasteless, and must
be thrown away, spoiled, before the
early spring time, when they are in
such demand and ought to be fresh,
firm and crisp as ever. The follow
ing is most excellent recipe, and
pickles put up after it will keep for
years:
Take enough small cucumbers to
fill a two-gallon jar. Cut off all
stems and wash thoroughly, drain
and wipe perfectly dry. Pack the
cucumbers closely in the jar, and
pour over them boiling brine made
by adding two cupfuls of salt to
water enough to fill the jar. Let
the cucumbers stand in the brine
overnight, then wash them in clear
cold water, wipe them, and pack
them in an empty jar. Place in a
layer of cucumbers, then over it put
horse-radish roots cut in fiat pieces,
mustard seed, whole pepper, and a
small bit of red pepper. Fill the
jar layer by layer, and then pour in
at one side, gently, so as not to
wash down the spices, hot vinegar
enough to cover. The cucumbers
will have shrunk so that they will
not fill the Jar more than three
fourths, but the vinegar should come
nearly to the top. When cold, seal
up with paper and paste, or place in
seif-sealing fruit-jars though this is
not necessary for safe keeping.
For pickles which are to be used
early 10 the winter, the cucumbers
can be put down in brine and made
into pickles as needed by soaking
them in fresh water and then placing
in a jar with vinegar and spice. The
brine should be made in proportion
of pint of salt to gallon of water.
A weight must be placed on the Gu
cumbers to keep them under the
brine.
A good spiced vinegar for pick
ling is made by adding half an ounce
each of cloves, mace, ginger, tur-
meric and celery seed, one ounce of
white mustard and half a pound of
sugar to each gallon of vinegar.
This does not make a very sweet
pickle, 1t is very good for ripe OF

homes? Not the Republicans of the
North, certainly.
There are things more important to the
colored people Than politics, and they
ought to be able to see that there are.
Their future is bound up with that of the
white people of the South, and it is to
their interest to have their good will and
to live IN peace with them. All the prog
ress they have made is due to the
white people among whom they live, and
TO these same people they must look TO-
help TO better their condition. They will
certainly get no help from the Northern
people, who have no liking for them, and
whose advice has brought them only trou

The next President Of the United Sta,es
will be elected on "a new apportlonment
based on ,he census to be taken in 1890.
Those. therefore, who estimate on the
present electoral cllege start with erro-
neous iuures, and their calculations are OF
no value whatever.
First Of all, it maybe taken COR granted
that Dakota and Washington, i not Mon
tana and New Mexico, vii participate in
the next Presidential election. The ID m
ocrats have never opposed the admission
Of the Territories, but simply the plim by
which the Republicans wanted to 1T Da-
kota moo the Union, a pllu aimed t. in
crease their strength IN the Senate and
House, and maintain their control OF Con
gress for years TO- come
Secondly, the electoral votes of the
States will be changed by the next cen
sue This will play most important
part in the next Presidential election ;
and this, therefore, becomes an important
political calculation.
We are surprised TO see Southern
papers suggesting that the South will
lose strength in the next electoral col
lege. relatively if not In the aggregate,
and that the principal gain will be made
in the Northwest. This preposterous idea
is always put forward by some Southern
papers in advance Of every census, only
to be knocked out when the returns come
in. We heard the same story in 1880,
vet when the apportionment was made it
was round tina, the South had larger
share of Congressman and electors than
ever before; in other words, was poiti-
cally stronger in 1880 than in 1870.
And so it will be in 1890. In no section
Of the country does the population in
crease more rapidly by natural causes
than in the Southern States and even
with but an infnite>imal proportion Of the
immigrants who come into this count y,
the South grows faster in people than the
section north of the Ohio.
Since 1880, various State censuses have
been taken. The New York World Al
manac published from the reports of the
Governors Of each of the States, either
from the census or from other documents,
the official figures Of their population on
Jan. /, 1888. These reports, except in
two instances, were very accurate. They
indicated the population Of the two sec
tions to be then as follows, the Northern
Territories soon to be made States, being
included
If the increase in population from 1880
