But none of the Jews washed
Etheir hands, neither did Herod
h.or any of his judges, and when
Ethey would have washed them,
IPilate rcEs up: and thereupon
lHerod the king bids that the Lord
lshould be taken off, saying to

EPilxte andof the Lord and knowing
That they arc going to cruelty Him
became to- Plate and begged the
body Of the Lord for burial. And
PLATE sent to Herdo and
|Aaked for His boy; and
EHerod said, Brother Plate even
|i no one had asked for Him,
Eas should have had TO bury Him
Ifor already the Sabbath draws on !:
|pr it is written the law that the
Mns must not go dswn upon a
Anrd dered person, on the day be-
Ef6rs their feast, the feast of un-

EaSd taken the Lord were pushing
Him along at . run, and saying
htu hale the Son of God, now
That we have Him in our power ;
Eakd they clad Him with purple,
and theo seated Him on seat Of
Judgment, saying Judge righteously

..sv4l, " nas evil mas He :done7 and
[the jews being provoked at him
commanded that his legs should
not be broken, in order that he
might die in torment. And it twas
now midday, and darkness
covered al the land of Judea, and
theywere troubled and in anxiety
lest: the sun should be setting, since
Hewas yet alive; for it is written
forthem that the sun should not
set{upon murdered man. And
one of them said, Let us give Him
to drink gall mingled with vinegar,
and when they had mingled it
they gave Him to drink; and thus
they brought all thing to 4 fulfil
ment, and filled up the measure Of
their sins upon their own head.
And many went about with
lanterns, thinking it was night, -.
and they fell down. And the
Lord cried out, saying, My Power,
my Power, hast thou forsaken me?
And when He had said. this He
was taken up. the And same hour
the veil Of the temple OF Jerusalem
was rent in twain; and then they
drew out the nails from the hands
Of the Lord and laid him on the
earth and the earth was wholly
shaken and great fear came upon
them. Then the sun shone out,and it
was found to be the ninth hour. But
the Jews rejoiced greatly, and gave
the body to Joseph to bury, for he
had been an observer of all the
good deeds which Jesns did. And
he took the Lord and washed Him
and wrapped him in a linen cloth,
and brought Him into his own
tomb, which was called Joseph's
Garden. Then the Jews and the
elders and the priests, when they
saw what an evil deed they had
done to themselves, began to beat
their breasts and to say, Woe to
our sins, for the judgment and the
end of Jerusalem is at hand.
And I with my companions was
grieving, and being wounded in
heart, we hid ourselves, for We
were sought for by them rs male
factors and as men who wished
to burn the temple. And we were
fasting over all these things and
sitting down, grieving and weeping
night and day, until the Sabbath.
And the scribes and Phariaees
and elders were gathered together
for they had heard that all the peo-
were murmuring and beating their
breasts and saying, If such
mighty signs are wroughtat His
death, consider how righteous a
man He isl The elders were afraid
and came to Plate, ,beseeching him

and saying. "Give us soldiers, that
we may guard His tomb for three
days, lest His diciples come and
steal Him away" and people sup
pose that He is risen from the
dead, and do us ill. And Plate
delivered to them Petronius the
centurion with soldiers to guard
the sepulcher; and with them
there came elders and scribes: to
the sepulcher; and they Wild the
centurion and the soldiers who
were there all together rolled a
great stone and laid it at the door
of the tomb, and they plastered
seven seals, and pitched a tent
there and mounted guard.
And early in the morning, as
the Sabbath was drawing on, there
came a crowd from Jerusalem and
from the surrounding country to
see the tomb which had been sea-
led.
And in the night when the Lords
day was drawing on, as the soldiers
were on guard, two and two in
each watch, there was great voice
in heaven, and they saw the heav-
ems opened, and two men descend
thence with great radiance, and
they stood over the tomb. But
that stone which had been cast
at:the door rolled away of. itself
and withdrew.to one side, and the
tomb was opened, and both the
young men entered.
When those soldiers saw this
they aroused the centurion and
the elders for they also were present
Oh guard); and as they were
relating what they had seen, again
they behold three men coming out
of the tomb, and two of them
were supporting the third, and a
cross was following them; and the
heads of the Two men reached to
the heaven, but the head of Him
who was being led along by them
was higher than the heavens. And
they heard voice from heaven
which said, Hast thou preached to

AS a piece of temperance legisla-
tion the Dispensary law is NOT
satisfactory. A years time is re.
spectfully asked for before attempt
ing to answer the question whether
it will lessen the use of into1icants.
1t is not necessary to charge the
faults of the. law to the. General
Assembly. They asked for an e1-
preston of the peoples will 1.-THE
August primary. Had a majority
voted for prohibition our law
makers would hardly have had the
hsrdhood to defy the expressed
will of the people, at the risk Of
their political heads. I prefer to
believe that they would have obey.
ed it gladly.
Presumlng that a majority Of
our white voters favor prohibition,
it is to be hoped that they will
have another opportunity to say 50
at tho ballot box, and that it will
not again be- neglected.
With the fact before them that
only about one-tourth of the voters
asked for prohibition, our law
makers turned their attention to
the revenue value of the liquor
traffic, as three-fourths of their
constituents seemed to require
them to do, and any one has in
vented a plan arger promise to
distil revenue for the State, he
ought to have patent and a PEN
sion.
Morally, the Dispensary law is
no worse than license and that is,
perhaps, the best that can be said
of il. License makes the State a
partner in the liquor traffic, and the
profits are shared. Now the other
partner can turn his talent to other
pursuits, and the State will sweep
all the shekels into it's own till.
Nor is it morally any better than
license, and that is, perhaps the
worst that can he said about it.
At any rate, "it is as well to be
hanged for an old sheep as for q
lamb" and if South Carolina is to
rest under the reproach of this
awful traffic, I see lo good reason
for sharing the spoil with any one
who may be willing to swap one
dollar for twenty or fifty or one
hundred.
