i Thank the CnllQren OF IOu nave more
right to laugh than any other people,
and to clap their hands as loudly.
There is not single Joy denied them
that is given to any other people. Chris
tianity does not clip the wings of the
soul. Religion does not frost the flow
ers. What is Christianity? l take it
to be simply proclamation from the
Throne of God of emancipation for all
the enslaved; and if man accepts the
terms of that proclamation and becomes
free, has he not right to be merry?
Suppose a father has an elegant man
sion and large grounds. To whom will
he give the first privilege of these
grounds? Will he say: my children,
you must not walk through these
paths, or sit down under these
trees, or pluck this fruit These
are for outsiders They may walk
in them" No father would say
any thing like that He would say:
1.-The first privileges in all the grounds,
and all of my house, shall be for my own
children" And yet men try to make US
believe that Gods children are on the
limits, and the chief refreshments and
enioyments of life are for outsiders, and
not for His own children. 1t is stark
atheism. There is no innocent bever-
age too rich for Gods child to drink;
there /. no robe too costly for him to
wear; there is no hilarity too great for
him to indulge in. and no house too
splendid for Him to live in. He has
right to the joys of earth; he shall have
a right to the joys Of Heaven. Though
tribulation, and trial, and hardship may
come unto him, let him rejoice. "Re-
joice in the Lord. ye righteous. and
again I say, rejoice"

The readers OF the INTRLLidrxcEI will
be pleased to learn that there is at leas,
one dreaded disease that science has
been able TO cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure nov known to the
medical fraternity. Ca.arrh being a con.
stitutional disease, requires constitu.
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces OF the
system, thereby destroying the founda.
ton OF the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list OF tes.

Good to I;end In Summer,

The mean temperature Of January at
Tchelyaba is II degrees centigradc, Gays
the the RuSSiSche Re,ut; between Omsk
and Lake Biikal. from 10 TO 90 degrees
on the Trunsbaikal line, from 25 to 81
degrees; on the Ussuri line, from q
degrees at its northern end 10 II degrees
at Vladivostok. Along the entire route
the cold sometimes exceeds 10 degree,
the freezing point Of mercury, anu over
considerable part OF it the temperature
not infrequently remains below 90
degrees for several days at time. II
fro9,s OF 90 degrees interrupt traffic
in European iussia, causing steel
wheels, axles, and sometimes rails to
break, would not the conditions on the
Siberian lines occasion still greater diff.
culties and even affect the security CT
the iron bridges2 These questions
ought to be decided by experimental
tests, which could best DO made at the
university town of Tomsk, lying on the
line OF the proposed railroad. Low TEN.
peratures have different effects, not only
on the human organism, but on railroads,
according as they are accompanied by a
still atmosphere, or by more or less VOL.
ent winds. When the wind blows at a
rapid rate, the interior of iron objects
grow cold quickly. On the plains of
Western Siberia, west Of Oh, the line is
exposed to heavy winds and frequent
snow storms. In the mountainous re-
gions Of Central Siberia, the strength Of
the wind diminishes. In the Trans.
baikal, at the coolest period OF the year
there is the least wind. From Viadi.
vostock to the Ussuli district, severe
north and northeast storms occur in au.
tumn, winter and spring; however, there
is generally No snow, and therefore no
danger OF stoppage OF traffic. Beyond
the mountains the winds are not strong,
but there are often heavy falls OF snow,
which will make it advisable 10 preserve
forests and plant trees along the line Of
the railroad.

The following from the Philadelphia
Record illustrates to what depths thu
Democratic press is willing to stoop ii
the effort to manufacture public senti
ment against Republicans OF higl
character:
Judge Wilson, the able Representa-.
tive in Congress OF the Second West Viz.
ginla district, has honoubly earned the
enmity Of monopolists and thimb!e.rig,
ginS politicians OF the modern Republi.
can school; and so Stephen i. Elkins has
announced that he will be candidate
lor Congress in the district, with the un.
derstauding that he ia 10 be elected ere.
sGrdless OF cost" There was time
when such declaration would have
aroused a storm OF public indignation
throughout the Republic; but these ara
the days OF Doodle, and statesmen must
step to the rear"
For downright bold rascality the above
lie excels anything we have seen recent.
ly. Mr.. Elkins has never ANNOUNCED
that he will be a candidate for Congress
IN the Second District with the under.
standing that he is to be elected regard.
less OF cost" On the contrary Mr.,
Elkins has done just the reverse and
has stated emphatically that he is no. a
candidate for Congress, and does not de.
sire to become one. He has made no
declaration" whatever, that would
warrant the Records reference to pub.
lie indignation" and Doodle" and no
one has made any such declaration"
for him.
1t is true that there is strong aenti.
ment in favor Of rendering Mr.. Elkins
tho nomination in the Second district,
but it is not known that he can be pre-.
vailed upon to accept the honor, and
the chances are that he cannot be.
Such falsehoods rs tho above from the
Record are going the rounds Of the Dem
ocratic press, doubtless furnished by the
Democratic managers in West Virginia,
who are nervous over the bare possibili.
ty that Mr.. Eikins will consent to run
