Happy Skye Terrier.

A curious If not wholly pleasing spec
tacle for the typical American, especial
ly the typical American out of a job, is
the aristocratic occupant of a splendid
turnout to be seen on upper Broadway
every pleasant afternoon. An open
landau, drawn by two handsome dark
bay horses, elegantly caparisoned; an
athletic looking coachman in light drab,
with red trimmings, and occasionally a
young footman in the same livery. That
is the turnout, and it is quite as swagger
thing as is to be seen in that line about
New York The carriage is worth not
less than So, 500, and the horses and gold
mounted harness must be worth as much
more, while the coachman and his com
panion would have brought cool thou
sand apiece before the war, though they
are really white and very English, you
know.
The occupant of this swell establish
ment is D thin, consumptive looking in
dividual called by experts in his kind a
skye terrier. Silvered Ger with spily
hair of no particular color, his little
beady eyes glistening from the recesses
of his moppy weakened countenance, his
nose and every other portion of his
anatomical system being invisible, this
insignificant parsonage sits alone on the
back seat, if not grand, at least gloomy
and peculiar.
Within the physical possibilities not
remote from the butchers trade he
would probably be worth ten cents For
my own purposes [ would unhesitatingly
say ten cents a bunch would be an ex-
travagant price for such as he. Yet it
takes a five thousand dollar turnout and
an able bodied coachman and footman
to give this poor little ''critter'-the pet
pup of some royal American family-his
daily airing.-New York Herald

The Call Of AbrGna.
t night. upon the silent plain,

At night, upon the silent plain,
Knelt Abraham and watched the sky.
When the bright evening star arose
He lifted up joyful cry:
This is the Lord! This light shall shine
To mark the path for me and mine"
But suddenly the stars fair face
Sank down and left its darkened place
Then Abraham cried in sore dismay,
The Lord is not discovered yet;
l cannot worship gods which set"
Then rose the moon, full-orbed and clear,
And flooded all the plain with light,
And Abraham's heart again with joy
O'erhow9d at the transcendent sight.
This surely is the Lord" he cried;
s'rThat other light was pale beside
This glorious one" But, like the star,
The moon in the horizon far
Sank low and vanished. Then again
Said Abraham, This can not be
Ny Lord. l am but lost, astray,
Unless one changeless guideth me-"
Then came, unheralded, the dawn,
Rosy and swift from east to west;
High rode the great triumphant sun,
And Abraham cried, go last and best
And sovereign light! Now 1 believe
This Lord will change not, nor deceive"
Each moment robbed the days fair grace;
The reddening sun went down apace;
And Abraham, left in rayless night,
Cried, 80 my people, let US turn
And worship now the God who rules
These lesser lights land bids them burnt"

GOLDEN WORDS OF TRUTH.
We have our Pastors Assur-
ance of These Facts.
The Word of Ministers taken as
the Strongest Proof.
Persons BeIieUe the Pastor Before Any-
one Else an the World.

There are no words so strong as those spok-
en- by the true minister of the gospel. One
knows and feels instinctive1y that such words
come from the heart and are prompted only
by the earnest purpose of doing good to hui
manity.
We do not wonder, therefore, at the great
influence with the public of the strong and
ringing words of praise which the eminent
divine, Rev. G. ID. R. Meacham, gives that
most wonderful of medicines DR.. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy. When he
was run down in health, weak in nerves,
Frustrated in strength, and with his blood
badly impaired, he restored to sound and
vigorous health by this marvellous health re-
newer.
Here are the exact facts in his own words;
81 am very glad to say in regard to DR..
Greene's great remedy that when my blood
was.badly impoverished by an old scrofula hui
NOR, and my nervous system was greatly i'm
paired, DR.. Greenes medicine gave me Won
derfu1 relief.
cat the present time my health is as good
at any time in my life, and my confidence
in Dr. Greene's remedy is constantly increas-
ing.

REV. j. w. WALKER,
Presiding Elder Fort Do


We have published the testimonials of vast
numbers of people who were cured by the use
of the great discovery, DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy, but we take more
pleasure in giving to the world Rev. Mr..
Meacham's own words and those of Rev. Mr..
Walker in regard to the wo derful benefits
they received from this valuable remedy, we
realize that the earnest words of a minister
will have great weight with sufferers from
disease, and everybody who reads their con-
vincing words in regard to the sure and re-
markable curative powers of this medicine
will lose time in securing a bottle and
thus obtain cure.
Above all use this great remedy in the
Spring, for it is the best Spring medicine in
the world. Almost everybody needs to use a
Spring medicine to invigorate the blood,
strengthen the nerves and start up healthy
action of the liver, kidneys and bowels. Be
sure and use DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy 1t is purely vegetable and
perfectly harmless, and is kept by all drug
gists at $1.00.
Its discover is the we'll known Dr.. Greene
of 81 emple Place, Boston. Mass who gives
consultation and advice free to the sick per
sonally or by letter. The sick should use i'm
mediately DIR. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy, for it is not only the best rem
edey ever discovered, but those using it have
the privilege of consulting DR.. Greene per
sonally or by letter, concerning it's effects,
their health, etc. This fact alone guarantees
the assurance of cure. If you need a medi-
cine do not fail to take this best of all rene
dies.

THE MANUAL TRAINING SCHOOL.
The Board of Education has done the
best 1t could about "hiring hall" for the
district meeting, and the best 1t could do
was to hire the Grand Opera House for
next Friday afternoon. Of course this will
not suit those representatives. of "organ-
lied labor" who would like things ar
ranged SO that they could be sure to con-
troll the meeting. But 1t is as fair to them
and their followers as it is to the greater
body of ''unorgan!zsd labor" whose rights
they are attacking. There will probably
be large meeting. even If 1t will be incon-
venient for both union and non-union
workmen to be there.
We are told that the move that has been
made against the Manual Training School
is not generally approved among Union
workingmen in this town, and that those
who are claiming to represent Union labor
in this matter do not really represent 1t.
If this is 10 it is nothing new. Bluff and
gall have formed large part of the stock
in trade of most of the labor leaders who
have appeared and played more or less
brief parts in this region. One thing wss
made plain at the meeting of the Board of
Education last evening, and that is that it
would greatly benefit the new'walking del
egate to take some lessons in the proper
manner of dealing with public matters.
All citizens interested who can go to the
meeting next Friday should go. The
Grand Opera House will hold 1850, and it
should be filed.

lace. A perfect fluff of the same is about
the neck and down the front of the jacket.
The latter is made of rose silk all pow
dered with all colored tiny dots. Pale
green, pale lavender, pale blue and pale
yellow appear, and the jacket is lined with
a rainbow silk that with exquisite softness
carries out all these shades on ground of
ever recurring pink. All the frills of lace
are set on double, so the jacket could be
worn either side out, and no womon would

POLITICS IN BUSINESS.

| POLITICS IN BUSINESS.
The Boston Merchants association is
much dissatisfied with the way the con-
| sular service has been handled by the Hon.
Josiah Quincy of Massachusetts,. 1t thinks
! there should be more business and less pol
itics in this service. 1t appears that of
| the 317 Offices at the command of the as
sistant secretary of state, who has been
Josiah Quincy, III had been affected by
| new appointments up to July last and
1859 up to October 1. Jonathan A. Lane,
who heads the associations committee ap-
pointed to look into the matter, says re-
movals have been too numerous and of too
plainly political character to justify Mr..
Quincy's claim that the end had been sim
ply to "even up things" as between the
two parties-even were that sufficient ex-
cuse for making any changes. Not only
has there been no step forward in this de-
partment toward the reform the country
demands and Mr.. Cleveland was pledged
to, but there has been distinct retreat,
Mr.. Lane claims. He says: Our disap-
pointment is great, and there is, thus far,
but one report for us to make, which is,
that the cause We have sought to advance
has, by the present administration, more
than any other, been set backward; and
we must take up the work again, with the
addedburden which this desertion from
our reform ranks creates.
The association recommends that an ef-
fort be made to enlist the state depart
ment in the scheme of a perfect digest of
every consulate, to the end that it may be
fortified against unfit applicants, and 1t
also recommends that some plan for the
legal recognition Of merit in the consular
service, to be established by law, may be
devised and brought before the commit
tees of the senate and house during the
present session of congress, and invites
the co operation in this effort of the Bos-
ton and New York chambers of COM
meroe.
The idol worshippers are evidently get
ting discouraged. With the cases of Hon.
Jimmie Van Allen, the Hon. James R.

fore them they have reason to bs.
