Horace Greeley's journalistic code, de- scribed by Editor Charles A. Dana Al ways give hearing to your opponents. Never attack person and refuse to let him make answer in the same column. Be as considerate of the weak and friend less as of the powerful. Waste no strength advocating that which is intrin- sically impossible. Never compromise your opinions because of advertisers or subscribers. If they don't like your ideas, they can go to another shop.''

The new Brooklyn tabernacle is com plcted and dedicated. It occupies a lot 200XllS feet on the corner of Clinton and Greene avenue, is Romanesque in archi- lecture and built of COrsehil stone and rain-washed brick in red mortar. The roofs of the towers are to be covered with Spanish tiles and the main tower, yet un- finished, will be l60 feet in night. The seating capacity is 550O in an auditorium elliptic in shape and with two galleries the general plan of the first tabernacle having been followed closely in the sec ond. The shape was first suggested by Dr Talmage himself and was opposed earnestly by a number of people, who de- clared that he could not be heard. After full consideration and consultation with one of the professors in the Smithsonian Institution, who approved the plan heart fly, it was carried out; and the result proved the wisdom of the idea. The ceiling is domed and paneled, the mater ial being patent fireproof wood in cher ry color and richly decorated. The mag nificent organ, incased in ash, with col umns, rises behind the pulpit and above it is an arch highly ornamented in relief work. The windows are uniformly of frosted crystal tinted with yellow and give mellow light throughout the whole vast auditorium. The Sunday school room is so arranged that, by raising ser ies of blinds,i can be thrown open and add thousand more to the audience. Among the objects of special interest are the memorial stones brought by Dr Tal- mage from the East. These stones are set into the wall at the right of the or gan, and are incased in stereo relief work. The top block is from Mount Cal vary and bears the word "Sacrifice > the stone below is from Mount Sinai and is inscribed Claw" and the bottom stone, bearing the word Gospel, is from Mars hill.

Waiting.

The sun is sinking slowly
 To his crimson curtained bed, And l watch him going calmly, As though by angels led Then my thoughts come back from gropine In the distant far unknown; accept the beautiful vision
 As type of my nearing home. I've had my days of sunshine,
 My hours of Sorrows storms; Now wait in the gloaming
 To hear the blessed songs That will herald the tender summons Which calls me away to rest, Like the sum- safe led by angels,
 To my home in the glowing west. * t+

He invent ed the machine for cutting out leather gloves and introduced the one-seamed glove thumb.

Artemus Ward on Bachelors.

An old bachelor is poor critter. He may have hearn the skylark or (what's nearly the same thing) Miss KELLOGG and CARLOTTY PATTI sing he may have hearn OLE BULL fiddle, and all the DOD- WORTHs toOt, an yet he don't know nothing about music-the real, ginuine thing-the music of the laughter of hap py, well fed children! And you may ax the father of such children home to dinner, feelin' very sure there'll be no spoons missin' when he goes away Sich fathers never drop tin tive-cent pieces into the contribution box, nor palm shoe pegs off onto blind hosses for oats, nor skedaddle to British sile when there country is in danger-nor do any thing which is really mean. I don t mean to intimate that the old bachelor is up to little games of this sort-not at all-but I repeat, he's poor critter. He don't live here-only stays. He ought to 'pologize, on behalf his parients, for ben' here tall. The happy married man dies in good stile at home, sur rounded by his weeping wife and child ren. The old bachelor don't die at all he sort of rOts away, like pollywog's tail

An observing farmer asks some curious questions about corn. Where do the red ears and the speckled ears come from, when you only plant white or yellow corn? Why don't we find an ear with an odd number of rows on it? ICu can find four-leaved clover, but you never found on odd row on an ear of corn yet. It is always some even number and we should like to know what objection Nature has to odd numbers?

"Old Hayseed." "

It has become such fixed habit to call mouths the most awful English that, whenever the author refers to him, he is made to be both ignorant and uneducat ed. They do show a little wit sometimes, like the old Quaker who enquired for certain book. The clerk, like thousands of others, could not resist the temptation to hit 'Old Hayseed," said they had not the book he enquired for, but they had work on "How to Rear Calves" "Well," said the Quaker, ''thee had bet ter present that to thy mother" We re- member a NewtoWn farmers daughters reply to young medical student, who thought to have little fun over coun- try girl. "How are potatoes looking, up your way?" She replied, ''At present, they are looking much like you, decided ly green" We have heard men in other avocations than farming cut and tear the kings English so horribly that you could see the blood run. The farmer is accused of being "hard listed, "big headed" and ''so crazy to hoard money that he de- nics himself all luXuries and never a day off," The Ansonia Sentinel takes ire quent occasion to lecture him from the manufacturers, the moral and the busi- ness standpoint. '"There are so many farmers insane, because they are so greedy for money" Many farmers are obliged to work and save, to save the C., tIr l,<, f go and some are made insane. Farmers are accused of living on salt meats, etc. The fact is that farmers are as good liv- CTS as laboring men in any other indus try. The cities are continually drawing from the country their best blood and brain. The country newspapers are not 'struck of in the haymOW'' nOW-a-days We venture to say that farmers sons and daughters are as intelligent and better posted than the sons and daughters of la- boring men in cities. The cities are all amusements. A few years ago, a farm CTS daughter of NeWtOwn went to Phila- delphia awhile. Spelling contests were at full tide and the gentleman and lady where she boarded invited her to enter the list. Clergymen, doctors and lawyers were "in the ring" The big church was full. The NeWtown girl easily won the prize, "Thc Poets of America" if we re- member rightly. Then $lO was offered. The NeWtown girl was one of the two standing. She had won again, but the judges, on a mere bubble, gave the $lO to the gentleman. A few days after, they told her that she was right and eX- pressed regret that they had decided as they did. Her Scholarship in Latin was ahead of theirs. We hope to see the day when "Old Haysecd" will be addressed like gentleman and hope to read story or novel where he is not always char acter whom the writer labors to make ridiculous.-[G [G.

Mrs Bedle, wife of ex-Gov Bedle of New Jersey, deserves high rank among the pattern women of the land. Though beset with the cares incident to wealth and social leadership, she finds time for all sorts of small sweet human kindness es, so delicately done that their value is trebled. Some time ago, she bought a book the authoress of which was blind. After reading it, she sent to it's writer a letter of warm thanks for the pleasure it had given her and took the trouble to prick through every word of it, so that the blind woman might read it with her finoer-tips BaZar

The Moravian church having decided to establish a mission in East Central Africa, volunteers have offered and five pioneers are already on their way to Lake Nyassa. The position selected is just north of Lake Nyassa, at Rungwe in the Ukukwe country-a fine mountain peak, on whose fertile slopes there are several eligible sites for mission station. The Livingstonia mission of the Free Church of Scotland has stations quite near at the south and west, but among different tribes; and the Berlin evangelical society is planning work among other tribes. The African Lakes company also has sta- tions through the country and through them goods can be carried to within two or three days journey of the proposed station.

The natural sense of modesty pre- vents many from letting their condi- tion be known, preferring to suffer on year after year in silence, rather than let any one know how badly they feel, while others at once consult those whom they think should understand their ailments and ought to be able to cure them; but often how vain are their hopes, for, instead of improving as they are lead to believe they will, they go from bad to worse and at last give up all hopes of ever getting relief.

Contractor Toohey was in the city
yesterday from his grading camp on
the Santa Fe, Prescott and Phoenix
railroad. His force is working now
within six miles of the Aqua Fria. He
also has men working on the depot site
at Peoria. If favorable rates can be
secured from the Southern Pacific COM
pany, it is quite probable that track
laying will begin from this end of the
line. There is not much doubt that
the Bullock road will be bought. En-
gineer n. b. Gibson left on this morn
ing's train for Chicago, where he will
meet President Robinson, with whom
he expects to return in about ten days.
Arrangements will then be perfected
for the immediate completion of the
road from Prescott to Phoenix. One
line has already been run out Of Pres
colt, and engineers are at work rum
ming another. When this is complet-
ed the two will be compared and the
better one selected. The Bullock road
will probably be shortened in places
