AMENDING her PRAYER.
ON The Boston Transcript.

From The Boston Transcript.
| am prompted to send you the following anec-
dote about u half past two midget who Is quartercd
I'm our dOmice she Is accustomed at bed time, after
having had hilarious frolic dlshabille TO repeat
the words
Jesus gentle shepherd, hear me,
Guard thy little lamb to night.
Through the darkness be thou near me-
Watch my sleep till morning light
These lines she has faithfully repeated. word for
word, with the remarkable and inlmdtabc pronun-
citation common to all children mt her ago. but last
night she astonished us by saying:
:. Guard thy little lamb night,
Through the-tlat not darkness. that gas light !"
And surely enough new-lamp post had been
erected during the day on corner and the little
lamb" longer needed protection through the dark
ness, but through the gas light. She thought, sup
pose, that she must be literal az die.

investment in other ways, and the rate OF
hire which other capital can command will
be increased the increase coming out OF the
profits of the borrower. nation cannot
eat its cake and have it, too, any more than
a schoolboy can. 1t cannot spend millions
of dollars in ships and cannons and powder
and provisions and retain the wealth which
would flow from the employment of those
articles or the labor they cost in the pursuits
of peaceful industry.
All this nv readers will take notice, is a
presentation of the purely economic aspect
of the subject and is by no manner or means
a conclusive argument against war we
life is moro than meat and the body than
raiment. Riches are worthless except as
means to the promotion of human welfare,
and human welfare sometimes demands war
as imperatively as it usually requires peace.
Duel Sometimes Necessary.
The good and pious DR.. Samuel johnson
used to maintain that a man might, under
certain circumstances, lawfully accept,
though he might not send, challenge TO
fight duel, because, as the sage remarked,
he might have to fight to retain the esteem
of his fellow-men, and would therefore fight
in self-defense. So a nation may, IN the
present contingency, be forced to wage war
upon Chile for the better protection OF its
citizens. 1t may be that not only chile put
other nations need to be taught by forc1Dle
means that they cannot with impunity as
sault and kill American citizens, and thus,
indirectly, the cost of the war may be profit
ably expended by US. This, however, is
only humble contributor TO a newspaper
and not its editor, will not, like Lord Dun
dreary's dog, attempt to direct the course OF
the animal from my end OF it.
