The Sabbath.
Number Trio.

/
am often surprised and panied to note
the fact that some of the editors of our relig-
ious papers have so much to say about the
continental Sabbath" The impression
which they seek to make is that cur foreign
born citizens are thrusting upon US day of
recreation and leyitY-a mere holiday, in
stead of holy day. Now, am ready to
admit that many OF the foreigners in our
midst are noted for their disregard and des-
ecration of Gods holy day. But we should
be utterly ashamed, as / think, to stress this
fact so carefully and prominently while we
are SO shamefully guilty of the same desc
| Grafton aad sin which we condemn in others.
Ii our own people had been of such notion
as it was our duty to be, the foreigners could
| never have come over here and have pur-
sued many courses which they now do to
their ruin and disgrace, and to ours as well,
and of this they would have been fully in
formed before they came into our midst, so
that they would either have come to conform
to our laws and to be goods citizens or they
would have remained away and would never
have set foot on our shores.
But the truth is that the ''greater SIM is
with ourselves and always has been, because
we have sinned against light and trampled
knowledge under foot, which they never had.
Look at the course which is pursued by
many of our prominent men and leading
newspapers of our land. What do they care
for the Lords holy day? just nothing at all.
They are so blinded by the Great Adversary
Of all that is pure and good that they have no
conscience on the subject. They say, who
Is lord over us? With them 1t is small
matter to ignore and to attempt to set at de-
fiance the Lord of Lords and King of Kings"
But time of arrest and day of reckoning
will come fo- all Sabbath decorators and
they will be surprised to see how blind and
how utterly debased in spirit and how wick
ed they have been. When public sentiment
in any community is what it ought to be,
men who are constituencies about the holy
and blessed Sabbath have to conceal their
wickedness. No young gentleman or lady
who is pure and elevated in thought, and
who has proper respect for themselves, can
openly and shamelessly disregard the time
that God has made holy.
And no man is worthy to be trusted with |
important business on Monday who has |
grossly and voluntarily disregarded the holy |
day preceding. l.. PULLIAM.

Ed. Register-As have been reader OF
your valuable paper for quite a number oil
years 1 will attempt for the first time to give
YOU few items.
The Normal Institute closed last Friday,
owing to the fact that the attendance was
too small to justify its continuance. We are
glad, however, that there are few teachers
in the county who feel the necessity of pre-
pairing themselves for the duties of the
schooroom.
Rev. Showers, pastor of the Baptist church
at this place, preached an excellent sermon
last Sunday. Mr.. Showers is an earnest
Christian gentleman, and one who is not
afraid to preach the truth.
Mr.. Jesse Harral, of lmboden, was visiting
bis son, Mr.. Jno. Harral, last Saturday and
Sunday.
Mr.. Editor, as I expect to remain in this
beautiful valley for few months 1 will try
and give you an item once in awhile, if
this, my first article, should not fall victim
to the waste-basket.
Died, at Belleview, June 18th, 1888, Jesse
Webb, aged two months aud IS days. Jesse
was the only child of Mr.. and Mrs. james
Webb. To the bereaved parents and friends
we tender our entire sympathies.
