We take the following passage from
q recent sermon by Rev. Sam Jones
at jackson, Miss:
"Sin not only makes rascal OF a

Homage to Kossuth.

From thet London Standard. M
Eight hundred Hungarians made
pilgrimage TO Turin to do homage
to Kossuth on July Z. They had o
grand banquet at which Kossuth,
now aged 81, made speech an hour
and quarter long, ranking with tho
same great rhetorical powers that
distinguished him OF old. He still
mourns the dual government OF the
Austrian Empire and the rule Of the
Hapsburgs, and declared that he
could not return to his native country
30 long as nsit formed part Of the
government OF Austria. He is writ
ing his memoirs, though he is SO apt
to drop into reverios on past timea
that the work goes on very slowly. Il

ADAPTATION to Wants.

Much has been said about the adapta'
tions in nature to the wants of mankind
Another point of view shows the same
facts as evidence that man has adapted
himself to varying conditions of life.
An exception to what is looked upon
as general law is found in the distribu
ton of fish. 1t is observed that in the
warm waters of the Nile, for instance,
fish of many kinds abound, but they are
all of poor quality. The Same could be
said of the fish in all warm waters
Very few varieties are lit for the table.
Now it happens to be the case that in
hot climates the lighter articles Of foot
are most in request. The system doei
not need in the tropics the meats which
are SO largely consumed in the colder
region. Tho sending Of fish from Nor.
way to the countries about the Mediter-
rapean is ono of the Oldest branches OF
trade in the history Of commerce.
Where the fish was Of good quality
the population was scanty, and, on the
other hand, where the population was
numerous the fish was poor. Is it not n
reasonable inference that both man and
fish have sought the portions of the globe
where the conditions of life were most
favorable to them respectively Youths

SAYS the Rookdnle Mes.enger;

That the present constitution OF
the state OF Texas needs revision is
amply attested by the many amend
ments which from time to time have
been submitted to a vote OF the peo-
pie; and, several needed amendments
have been defeated for want OF pro-
per understanding Of them by the
people. About the only sensible way
Of mending the present defective
constitution is having n constitution

Ministers, as a rule, are as fond OF
good joke as other people, no matter
whether they are the joker or the victim.
Ono evening when Mrs. Van Cott was
holding revival meetings in st. Paul, a
party of ministers, including Rev. DR..
Dewart. of the Bates avenue church,
were present, and, in response to re-
quest by Mrs. Van Colt, gave experience
talks" Tho Bates avenue minister was
the only one who failed to respond, and
was made the subject Of remarks from
the pulpit, the lady not knowing that
DR.. Dewart was also minister. Finally
she came down from the pulpit and,
standing directly over him, said: young
man, unless you repent Of your sins and
walk in the narrow path, your soul will
be forever lost" Seeing that she was
laboring under misapprehension, the
reverend gentleman good naturedly lis
tened to the exhortations, while his min
isterial brethren were almost forced TO
laugh outright. Noticing the broad
smiles, Mrs. Van Colt suspected the
truth and returned to the pulpit. After
the services n good laugh was INDUCED

A writer in Tho Christian World sends
up this little rocket to shed light upon
the confusion existing in the minds Of
many very well educated people in re-
gard to the use Of the two words "sit''
and .'set"-a confusion similar TO that
which seems to attend upon the choice
OF saying Twill" or ''shall:"
"A man. or woman either, can set q
hen, although they cannot sit her; neither
can they set on her, although tho old
hen might sit on them by the hour II
they would allow. A man cannot set on
the wash bench. but he could set the
basin on II. and neither the basin nor the
grammarians would object. He could
sit on the dogs tail IL the dog were will
ing. or he might set his foot on 1t. But
II he should set on the aforesaid tail, or
sit his foot there, the grammsrians as
well as the dog would howl And yet.
strange as il may seem. the man might
set the tail aside and then sit down. and
neither be assaiIcd by the dog nor the
grammarians.

turies too late in asking that ques-
tion. Women always have proposed
and always will propose. Words are
very weak things compared TO wo-

most splendid thing on earth is q
good woman, and when, with oil her
attractiveness, she makes up her
mind that il would be well TO become
the wife Of some good man, and that
it would be equally well for him, she
captures him as easily as regiment
captures one corporal. 1t does not
make any difference whether her
ionguo proposes or mol. her eyes pro-
pose, her smile proposes, Until a

A lady visited pleasant home
where there were two daughters, aged
sixteen and eighteen, respectively.
There was no servant in this house,
yet the mother had plenty of time to
chat with her guest; she did not rise
till breakfast was ready, and, in fact,
seemed seldom 10 visit the kitchen,
or trouble about the meals, while
everything came on to the table in
good style. Both Of the young Ia.
dies were educated, could play the
piano well, and were, as the term
goes, accomplished"
The guest, marveling q little at
the novel arrangement Of the house
hold, one day questioned tho hos
tess.
MY friend, said fhe latter, "if n
mother wishes to be n slave to her
children, and kill herself to save
them from work, they will think
nothing OF it, because NIL young peo-
pie are thoughtless. They would be
horrified il they knew that their moth
er was working herself into the grave
for them; they simply do not think.
But train them up to work, and they
will think nothing OF it; they will ac-
cept their share of the labor as mat
ter Of course. A mother who saves
herself for her children, is great
deal kinder to them than one who
kills herself for them. We can afford
to keep servant, but l think the
house is pleasanter without one. Be-

The discussion OF the proposed

the London Economist to reflect that
there must be n line drawn some
where with respect to the English
peoples obligations to make rich
men and women out Of the descen-
dants OF royalty merely us such. A
very little figuring confirms this view.
The Guelphs are prolific family.
but reckoning their increase only at
a geometrical ratio Of five for every
thirty years there will be more than
fiji cen thousand desc ndants OF Queen
Victoria to be provided for hundred
years hence. If each is to have o
little matter OF $4,000 year out OF
the public treasury some new method
OF taxation must be invented to
