NEGROES IN THE FIELD.

fever and are forming corporations for
buying and selling real estate among the
industrious of their class. One charter
was granted yesterday in the County Cir
cult Court to company in the vicinity OF
Churchland and one was granted in Nor
folk last week. Portsmouth has had q
real estate company for colored people in
successful operation for several years and
has greatly assisted tho colored people in
securing property.

Hate Evil.

The popular religious sentiment
of the present day, says the National
Presbyterian, requires the liberation
of every form of error. 1t requires
us to look with kindness and indulg-
ence not only upon heretics of every
grade, but also upon heresay of every
form. Practically it insists that in
our attitude toward religiOnists we
must make ne distinction between
truth and error,-that we must re-
gard all as alike entitled to respectful
and considerate treatment. The
demand of the age is that we shall
exercise charity that will cover all
sins of this character, But in this
regard the spirit of the age is in di-
rect conflict with the spirit of the
gospel. The Scriptures require of us
an attitude of uncompromising hos
tility toward every form of essential
error. Opposition to error is an
essential characteristic of the gospel.
The love of what is good in this di-
rection involves the hatred of what
is evil. The degree of our hatred of
error is the real measure of our love
of the truth. This hatred is an es-
sential characteristic of the spirit of
Christ. Ofthe heretical doctrine of
the Nicolaitans our Lord himself
says. (which thing l hate" He
hated it because it involved rebellion
against God, and because it was
adapted to destroy the souls Of sin
ners. And just in proportion as we
have in us the mind that was in
Christ Jesus, we shall be like him in
this regard. We shall occupy posi-
ton of uncompromising hostility to
error in all its essential forms. A
disposition to look with complacency
upon error indicates, not a large
measure of the charity of the gospel,
hut an inexcusable Indifference to the

Murmuring.

No blessing comes to the murmur-
ing, complaining, disconnected heart.
When once this evil of discomfort
has entered into the soul nothing is
right. Even the "angels" food was
not good enough for the murmuring
Israelites, and "the corn of heaven"
could not satisfy those whose souls
were filled with the discomfort of
earth But when once the heart has
found rest in God, and all its mur~
murings are hushed in sweet submits.
sion to his WILL there is peace in
believing, and joy in the Holy Ghost,
and hallowed confidence in the
kind Providence of Him who hath
done all things well. "Let your
conduct be without covetousnesS,
and be content with such things as
We have; for He hath said l will nev-
er leave thee, nor forsake thee. So
that we may boldly say, The Lord is
my helper, and / will not fear what
man can do unto me-"

Your Children's Books.

Let the baby have books even be-
fore he can talk. Ifhe cares for them
at first only for the pictures, he will
in time learn to lave them for what
they can tell him. Children should
be encouraged to keep their books
neatly on little shelves of their own.
Very neat hanging sets containing
from one to two shelves can be found
at the shops for an extremely mod
crate sum, and will be found a source
of much pleasure to the child who is
certain to glory in the proprietorship,
and to take pleasure in arranging his
small library. 1t will also teach him
to take good care of his books, which
is a lesson he cannot learn too fast.

truth and to the honor of Christ and
the salvation Of lost men, as we'll.
Charity "rejoiceth not in iniquity,
but rejoiceth in the truth" This
temper is set forth by the Apostles
in unmistakable language. Paul
says, "Abhor that which is evil;
cleave to that which is good;" and
Jude exhorts the faithful that they
"should earnestly contend for the
faith" And just in proportion as
we are animated by the temper of
our Divine Master we shall be in
sympathy with the Apostles and
with his people of every age in their
opposition to error, and we shall
unite with them in earnestly con.
tending for the faith.-[Southern

Christian Experience.

A pious frame of mind is the most
precious acquisition that can be OBJ
tanned in this world; it is as much
superior to the general religion that is
current as the health of a sound con-
stitution is to the bitter days and
feelings of a man in decline, or the
regular order of a sonnd intellect to
the lucid moments of the deranged.
But this happy state of mind is not
generally attained at all without
much pievious spiritual exercise and
praying without ceasing; nor is it re-
tanned when possessed without much
watchfulness, prayer, and constant
strivings against the corruptions of
the heart, the Influence of circum-
stances and the various temptations
of life. But whatever may be the
privations and difficulties attending
its possession, they are infinitely
overbalanced by the fruits of joy and
permanent consolation it produces.
In this state of mind only it is that
person is prepared to meet the va
rious storms and trials of life, and
can look forward with well ground
ed composure to the close of the pres
ent state. 1t is walking in the light
the person is more acquainted with
divine things, with a moderate capac-
ity, than Others with large intellect.
He is at home in the deeper subject
of experimental religion, the various
workings of the corruption of the hui
man heart, the weak yet genuine ac-
tings of divine grace upon revealed
Saviour, the suitableness oftheprom-
ises to convey the blessings of saliva
ton to perishing sinners, the adapt
edness Of Christ in what he is, and
what he has done to supply all the
wants of sinners enlightened in the
knowledge of themselves, and seek
ing salvation in his name. He
knows, in some measure, the mex
pressible beauty of the moral charac.
ter of Christ, of God in him, and has
tasted the pleasure that flows from
thus beholding the beauty Of the
Lord. This gives strength and vigol
to every grace, and in the strength OF
grace he is sensible of the being OF
grace, and raised above the misery
OF living ever in a doubling state

each moment, and long ere Pietro
could reach the more sheltered val
ley would the storm break. AL
though rugged lad, he staggered be-
meath his burden, and was forced to
rest now and then in spite of his
haste to reach shelter. Twice he
stumbled over some unseen obstruc-
ton, and, with one foot famed in
consequence of the last misstep he
found it hard to keep on his way.
At last the wind began to blow; then
came rain, which soon changed to
binding sleet, and this beat against
his face, into eyes, mouth, and ears.
The poor sheep bleated mournfully,
as if it comprehended the situation.
With smartlng eyes and cheeks
and with weary limbs the brave boy
struggled on through the storm.
When he reached the more sheltered
valley, he paused to take breath,
then, readjusting his burden, resum-
ed his fight with the elements. Once
again he stumbled, and with difficult
ty recovered his toothold on the now
slippery path. He lifted his heart in
prayer, for new fear lest he should
lose his way in the increasing storm
and darkness assailed him.
80 God, please guide me safely
home! Give me the sight Of my
mothers dear face once more"
On and on struggled Pietro, bend
ing beneath his heavy load. At last,
when he was almost discouraged, he
heard joyous bark, and in mo-
ment Sachs was leaping upon him.
Behind the dog came PietrO's father,
who had grown uneasy at his sons
prolonged absence. A few words
sufficed to explain the situation.
"Thou hast done well, my Pietro.
Now let me help with the poor Great
ure, and together we will carry it to
Neighbor Hauser."
When that ill.conditioned man
saw the two approaching, he was too
mnch surprised TO give them a well
come; and when, with simple courte-
sy they explained the state of affairs,
he embraced both father and son
Swiss fashion, kissing each upon
both cheeks:
"Thou hast taught me a lesson
never to be forgotten, Pietro, and
may the good God forget me in the
day of my distress If l yield not my
claim to the land, so that it may al
last be thine when we older ones
shall have laid our heads beneath the
soil of the churchyard yonder."
Hauser kept his word, and from
being bitter enemy became a firm
and generous friend.
But the sweetest reward of all t.
Petrio was his mothers loving kiss
81 am proud of my dear son this
day. May the good God bless thee
for thou art one of his children il
that thou hast at great cost to thysel
tried to do his holy will"
Very weary, but very happy, wa.
Pietro as he lay down that night be-
meath the sloping roof of his father
! chalet.
1t is a blessed thing to sacrifice oul
own selfish, ungenerous feelings tC
the will of God, and he ever reward
such sacrifice with His dear blessing
