monia, which developed into membrane.
ouB Group. DIR. Draper was called In for
! consultation, but the case was hopeless,
and the child died the day after. DR..
Oorkran issued certificate of death from
oroupua pneumonia, with diphthsretic
tendencies; adding the latter CLAUSE be-
cause it is difficult to distinguish be-
tween the symptoms OF complicated
m inbraneous Group aud diphtheris, and
not because ne believed that the child
diad OF diphtheria.
Undertaken j. A. Wilson had charge of
the burial and to avoid possible trouble
with the railroad companies, who would
have refused to take the child away
from the city, had II died of diphtheria,
suggested that the statement relative to
diphtheretio tendencies DO omitted He
did not believe from an examination of
ths body that the child died OF iiph-
tleria. Mr.. Thomas, the child's grand
father, then urged DIR. Oorkran TO change
tue certificate. This he refused TO do al
frat, but afterwards gave another certif-
cate OF death from lung trouble. On
this the body was shipped to Prospect,
Md, where it was publicly buried on
June 18th.
From June 23d TO July 9Th, Ave chill

health officer of Hartford county, Md,
made report on the matter, which im-
piled that they contracted the disease at
the funeral and the Philadelphia Inquirer
editorially charged DR.. Oorkran yesterday
with the responsibility of their death.
DIR. Oorkran says that the first person
who died at Prospect OF dphtheria, came
to this city, the day before the child's
death to nurse it, and was then suffering
with liberated sore throst. He was mol
asked to treat her, but believes that she
contracted diphtheria before leaving her
home in Maryland and gave the disease
10 the other children, and that the little
boy dad Of lung trouble, in which latter
opinion DR.. Draper comedies.

A Fight for Congress.

All the democrats in this Congress-
ional District who supported Norris
will vote for Johnstone to a man.
They know their duty and will per-
form it. They feel that they are bound
i'm morals and in law to do so and in
addition to these considerations they
must do so to defeat the dreadful pur-
pose of the independents who have
always been denounced by Wade
Hampton as "worse than Radi--
calls"
We do not give the rumors as author
ative but there is talk of danger to our
Democratic Congressional nominees.
1t is said that the unhOly coalition
means to leave out five of our Congress
men and give their places to pronoun-
ced Republicans. The scheme Is to
swap votes for these places aud for the
State ticket Of the boilers. En- this
way the control OF the State govern
ment will be wrested from the Demo-
cratic party and representation in
Washington will be turned over to
the party of plunder.

Selections from The Christian NeighbOr
The Supreme Power.

In the Coronation, Jesus Christ, the
Son of God was of right invested
with all power in heaven and in earth,
thereby being made King of kings
Lord of lords-the blessed and only
Potentate--the Prince of peace. Ac'
cording to the ceremony of coronation
as declared by the Father-"Sit thou
at my right hand until I make thine
enemies thy footstooW-the Son is to
remain in possession of that power
until first by mercy and last by judg'
ment, "he shall have put down all
rule, and all authority and power.
For he must reign, till he hath put all
enemies under his feet. The last ene-
my that shall be destroyed is death"
Between the coronation and the sub
jugation of all things unto the Son
will be the end of the reign of grace
the gospel dispensatlon-and the i'm.
mediate beginning of the reign OF
Judgment by which the Son will ac-
complish by power what the disobedi-
ent would permit him to do by grace.
During the reign of grace-the pro-
baton of the world-men will be per-
mitted, as moral agents, to do as they
elect; in the judgment those who, un-
der the reign of grace, "would not
have this man to reign over them" "
will be forced to bow their knees to
Jesus Christ and confess with their
tongues that he is Lord to the glory OF
God the Father.
All rules, authorities or powers
which men may adopt during their
probation will be subjected to test by
laws of the King, and whatever is con-
trary to the principles of the gospel OF
Christ will be destroyed and the au-
thors and abettors of such rules, au-
thorities and powers will be judged
aDd punished even as their works
shall deserve.
What will be done with war and its
abettors?

true to the principles of the great par
ty which has done 30 much for liberty

know that there is no chance for the

The negro vote is appealed 10. In every
conference of the dIsaffected III the par
w an overwhelming majority has op
posed the disruption of the Democrat

inp men, blinded by passion, thirstlng
for yengance and reckless of conse-
ouences have turned their backs on
their friends, scorned the counsels OF
the natriotic aud the wise and made
themselves enemies of good govern
ment, peace, progress and prosperity.

ed them and they have put in Jeopar-
DIV the credit of the State, the existence

From Josiah W. Leeds.
RocoUNCEY, Oct. 3rd, 1Se

RoCoUNCEY, Oct. 3rd, lo90.
S1DI H. BROWNIE:
My dear friend:
lam apprized that the time of your
Peace Society's anniversary is near at
hand. You have never gathered to-
gether in large numbers. The matter
to be considered is of the non-popular
sort, and the "big guns" are not there.
Perhaps it is better that it is so, as 1
have known those large pieces of ar
tillery to fire off some very unhappy
deliverances, and (it seems to me) to
deal death and destruction to the sa-
cred cause which it had been supposed
they came forward to defend. The
peace reform will invite disaster
through any effort to "popularize" it,,
that is, in the sense in which the
term is generally understood, as low
ering of the moral tone and of the
truth. I would therefore encourage
thee, dear friend, to press forward,
and to cheerily and with hope hold
aloft the ensign given thee, I do be-
lievc, by the Prince himself. The peo,
pie of South Carolina are said to be
chivalrous, and it may be that those
who are believers will yet flock to the
support of the forlorn hope" AS my
mind has at times recurred to we'll
known Revolutionary incident which
marked the defence of Charleston,
have thought that it were easier amio
the tumult and roar of contendine
forces, and the frenzied excitement &C
companying, to leap upon the exposed
ramparts and wave the shattered flag
cf ones country, than it would be III
the quiet-ways of life-exposed to
cross-fre of epithets and uncompli
mentary adjectives from foes anG
friends (the latter hitting the hardest.
-undauntedly to display the untar
nished white standard Of truth. So il
may harm thee not, as coming from
Quaker (who have been helped by ;
cheering word, but who has no love
for flattery), if I say that 1 like te
think of thee-with thy banner-tht
NEIGHBoR, bravely tlying-as the Ser
geant Jasper of the Peace cause in
South Carolina. May the few who art
openly with thee, not slacken in theil
zeal and faith, remembering that it is
q high charge to Gc entrusted aoiM q
Iving testimony, and that, having re-
gard to the rccsmpcnse of the reward,
it should not be lightly cast down or
laid aside.
Sincerely and aflectionately thy
friend. JOSIAH ". LEEDS.

The Daily Cross.
BY MRS. NJ. E. SANGSTER.

Who faiu would follow Jesus,
A daily cross must bear
With never -ceasing patience,
With watchfulness and prayer;
And, morning after morning,
Must tread the upward way,
That leads through pain and conflict
To loves eternal day.
Who fain would follow Jesus,
The Masters life must heed:
Must spend himself for others,
And hear when others plead;
Must lift the little children
In arms Of blessing up,
And oft 10 sorrows pallid lip
! Hold sweet compassion's cup.
Who flin would follow Jesus,
He cannot step aside
In scorn OF weakness tempted,
In loftiness of pride.
For who would follow Jesus
Must mingle in the throng,
And aid when hunger waileth,
And stoop 10 right the wrong.
Who fain would follow Jesus,
Through strife and shame and death
Will sit with him at length on high,
And this Messiah saith,
The daily CROSS, my brothers,
And then the crown and palm;
Here, loss and many trial;
There, heavens unending psalm.
Brooklyn, N. Y.
