| phclps, cX-ATinistcr to England, in an
cluuucnl speech lauded the Supreme
Court. amidst thick fumes of tobacco
ana the popping of champagne corks.
| Tie Void of Feb. 6, 1890, commented
u; follows: 'Those legal potentates
iiavc been magnifieently d;ned and
wiHed ........It was apparent that the
fame of the ailuring but potent Bar
Association punch had reached the
ears of the uppermost court.........N ow
| the United States Supreme Court Is

uu"nc".'
Belslazzar made great feast to a
| thousand of his lords. and drank wine
before the thousand in the same hour
the handwriting upon the wall of his
palace revealed his impending doom.
He had been "weighed in the balance
and found wanting" The Judgment
upon him Was speedily executed.
There is enough similarity between
these two hanuuct5 to cause an arrest
uf thought.
God still rcigns. and in his own way
keeps u record of the affairs of men
and nations, rs in ages past. \ record
of the centennial of the Supreme
Court was kept by other than human
hands. Though the handwriting may
not be clearly visible to the partici-
pants of this feast, there may be Dan
iels to-day who can interpret the di-
vine inscription. But our leaders in
the affairs of government do not seem
anxious for an aninterpretation of mes
sage from the God Of Heaven"
Should these evils go OH unrebuked ?
Must the church be silent lest her
peace be disturbed? All! She has
been silent and fearful too long. The
signs of the times indicate that the
church must wage moral contest
against intcmperance and its kindred
evils, or in future see our people ana
nation subjected to 4 worse than Ro-
man sword.
From Il gospel standpoint it is in the
province oi our Peace Department to
orr0se all carnal warfare, and to labor
earnestly for the "Fedaration of the
World." and yet to encourage holy
holdness in warning the people
against the evils that abound, wheth-
er by tongue or zen, whether in the
highest circles in life, or among the
most lowly. ANA if the martyrs fate he

A great crowd of negroes pressed around
the window Of the Registers office last Sale
Day. +. B. Gary, Esq, acted us Democratic
Supervisor. Mr.. r. Il. Tobert looked after
the interests Of the Republicans.
The registration law contains no provision
for the REGISTRATION Of persons who failed TO
register at the general registration in May,
1882 and no provision for the registration o!
persons who have come into The State sine"
that registration. The only provision Is for
the rcrstra tion of those who have become OF
age since tina: general registration.
Few Gf the applicants were able to state
definitely at what time they were born: Very
many thonsht their natal day was on the ~: h
of February. lS69-even one man whose gray
head would have led the Register to think
him an old man, gaid that he was born on
that flvorite day.
That our people may know what Is being
done. we append the notes Of the Democratic

4 letter from Mr.. kccne to his fami-
~ one morning threw them into great
distress. He had been away from
them all winter attending the State
Legislature, of which he was MEM
Ter. The letter announced that on the
evening of the next day he would be
home again and present to his children
a new mother. This was the first in
tmuti0n they had had Of any such in
tem;ion on his part. The long and full
letter he had written them in relation
to his impending marriage, with an
account and characterization OF their
new mother, had failed to reach them.
Ijut the children, though feeling keen
~ that their father had not prepared
them for this new departure, made ev-
cry preparation for receiving him and
iliS new wife with respect and hospi-
tality.
There were two grown daughters,
two or three grown sons, and some
Younger children. The eldest d daugh-
ter had been at the head of household
affairs since her mothers death, and to
her Judgment all the children deferred.
At the appointed time tlic father
came, bringing with him Il gracious,
kindly woman with her little daugh-
ter. She was evidently touched by the
gentle and respectful manmcr in which
She was received, and yet she could
not fail to detect the under-tone CT sad
ness in the children 1T seeing The place
Of their itloliZrd mother occupied by 4

Memory, like every other faculty, is
strengthened by Legitimate use. But
we have many tyres of memory, one
of obiccts-Individuality one OF
form; one of magnitude; one of col
ors one Of places; one of historic in
cidents.
When you read sentence, or impor-
tant statement, read il n second time
close the book and try to talk it, and
put it into your own words. When
Won have lived it in your brain in that
way, form it into phrases Of your own,
and it will be more readily recollected.
For the cultivation Of continuity, di-
vide your time between whatever du-
ties you have to perform, and stick to
each one until you get it finished.

More than forty years ago q book
was published containing this sto-
ry:
"Why are you forever preaching
against Bishops ," said a dissatisfied
nearer to a Presbyterian divine. BE

wavs find it in the text" "Well, |
will give you q text where you will
not find it-Genesis, first chapter,
first verse; Accordingly, the next
Sabbath the preacher began "The
book of Genesis, the first chapter, at
the first verse. In the beginning, God
created the heaven and earth'-but
not one word, my breihercn, of this
creating Bishops"
And now comes modern para
phrase Of the story in the following
form which tile writer no doubt re-
gardcd an improvement upon the
old
There was a Baptist minister who
was sure to get every sermon switch
ed off on the riverside track. The
thing became so noted that some
Young men in the congregation laid 4
wager that no text could he given him
but that he would get baptism out OF
it. Accordingly this was handed in,
with the request that he preach from
it: ain the beginning God created
the heaven and the earth" Imagine
their dismay when he Iail out his sub,
iect as follows; "My dear hearers,
geographers tell us that the earth il
composed of about one-third land and
two-thirtls water, and this leads lis to
the subject of baptism" And he pro-
ceeded to deliver an excellent sermon
on immersion.
