RELIGIOUS FRENZY.
Terrible Halls>cination of Three Alabami
 Negroes.

Torrible Hails<cinattOn Of Three Alabama
 Negroes.
 BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Aug. 14.-Three young negro men driven to religious frenzy the other day by the exhorta- tions of an old negro named Tobias Jackson, who claims to be Daniel the Prophet, were persuaded to believe that they were representatives of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, the three Israelites who entered the fiery furnace of Ncbuchadnezzar, of old.
 Under the influence of their new prophet the negroes, Dan Williams, Peter Burttamp and Bill Verdier, de- Nberately entered the gate of the cupola of the Schloss furnace and rushed into the white heat of the melt ing iron. When they failed to come out, Jackson, the prophet, proclaimed that he saw them rising in the air with the smoke of the furnace, attended by angels. and said they would revisit tho earth again next Sunday.
 The negroes propose to meet at church next Sunday and will continue in prayer all day, Tobias Jackson leading, and will await the descent of the three children of Israel.

THE OLD MAN.

Old man, favored one thou art, For which is due 0 grateful heart; Few arc the strong, or r.ch, or sage, That share with thee the gift of age. No broken shaft thy monument How many fall their day half speEt!- Thy symbol, not of tears and grief, Of joy instead, Q ripered shcaf. "Tis thine high and full survey, From first to last of life's long way, And thro' it all, most clear to sec, Cod loving hand e'er leading thce. Iris thine to have seen each darkest cloud, That seemed both scnse and faith to shrou6 Illumei with Heavens reflected light, And changed to day thy troubled night. 'Tis thino to have served both God and man Throughout lfe's full allotted span, And lay up priceless treasures here, And store them for tho upper sphere. ITS thine to have seen, as seen by few, The marvels that our God can do, The mustard-seed of truth and right Grow to hugo trees of wondrous height. 'Tis thine to have seen, not seen by all, Gods work go on, tho workmen fall; Go on unhindercd thro' the age
 While fell tho good, the strong, the sage. Iris thine, at length awhile to wait Serene beside the pcarly gate
 The gate, whose portals soon shall ope, And crown with bliss thy lifelong hope. Rev. James Upham, D. D., in Watchman
