Lessons From the Jewish Scriptures ;
or Christ in The Old Testament.
MORE oF rHE EIGHTH DAY.

Circumcision was always on the
eighth day, a symbol or figure of
the old nature cut off from before
God and the new creation brought
in by the way of the cross-death.
Death and resurrection with and in
Jesus the Christ-the risen man.
Dead with Him and risen in Him.
Reckon therefore yourselves dead
indeed unto sln"-the old Adam ma
ture-"but alive unto God in Christ"
the new sinless man. This new
creation is figured to us in the Old
Testament Scriptures as coming in
on the eighth day-the new begin
ming following the seven days Gin fig
ure the completion of the old dis
pensatiOn.
1t is also the end of the Sabbath
dav. There is no Sabbath day in
christianity. The seven days of the
Jewish dispensation ended with the
Sabbath that Jesus the Christ laid in
the tomb. He arose from the dead
on the eighth day, the beginning
dav of Gods new creation in Christ
Jesus; the resurrection day; the first
day of the new week of christianity (;
the new creation day; the Lords
day; the day of grace from God to
man; the day of rejoicing ,thanksgiv-
ing and praise to God
The Sabbath was originally the
day OF Gods rest, after the six days
of creation when he had declared
everything to be perfect Then
there was nothing more for him to
do, because everything was already
perfectly done, completed, finished
Then He hallOwed the seventh day.
But sin coming in in Adam broke
Gods rest and no Sabbath has been
kept from that day on until now and
none ever will be kept until Gods
perfected work by the Lord Jesus
Christ is completed in the new hea-
vens and the new earth wherein
daCeIleth righteousness. "My Father
worketh hitherto, says Jesus, ""and
/ work" this he said too in answer to
the charge of the Jews that He had
broken the Sabbath day. There
had been no real Sabbath day kept
since the fall and this the Lord knew
WE'LL spite of the cavil of the Jews,
and more than this, He knew that
there could be none until His work
was completed in the new creation
of God, of which He was Himself
the beginning.
Keeping the Sabbath day then
was, and still is failure, not only of
the Jew, but also of the seotarianism
of this day.
For many ages after the fall there
was no pretense even on the part of
man to keep the Sabbath day. In
giving the law to Israel the COM
mand was given to keep the seventh
day as a Sabbath unto God. Phis
like all the other sections of the dec
alogue was given to prove man, to
prove himself to himself, that he was
not fit for God and could not fit him
self to meet Gods measure Of right
eousness. 1t was given to prove
man a sinner and to show him his
need Of a Saviour. 1t was man s
schoolmaster (until Christ came) to
teach him his need of Saviour.
The Lords day-the eighth day
Or the first day of the week is
sometimes called the christian Sab

Crying Stop Thief.

After having practiced vote buy
ing and all kinds of political RASCAL
ity in this State for more than thirty
wears, in order to hold themselves in
power, the Democrats are now rails
ing a great howl, declaring that the
Republicans are going to use cor
ruption money at the approaching
election. We are opposed to the
whole business of vote buying and
do not commend it, but cannot see
why it is worse for one party to in
dulge in this practice, than the other.
The fact is that the Republicans not
only defeated but bankrupted the
Democratic party in this State two
wears ago, and that is why the shoe
pinches. They have not been able
to pay off their bills of two years
ago, and cannot raise money to buy
the election this year, and so their
press and leaders are raising the
CRY against political corruption and
vote buying. They now realize that
there is going to be real Republi.
can cyclone this fall, and that it will
reach Delaware--sweeping from their
grasp the hold they have had for SO
many years; therefore, they must
have something to write and talk
about, and for want of something
else, they are raising the cry of po
litical debauchery,i in order to divert
the attention of their adherents.--

500 Reward, 500.

The readers OF this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure IN
all its stages and that is Catarrh. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls CHtarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces OF the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, aud giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its work. The pro-
prietors have so much faith in its curative
powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars
for any case that it fails to cure. Send for

The Divorce Question.

It is hardly probable that the
coming Constitutional Convention
will take the same view of divorce
as Bishop Coleman does. 1t would
cause too much suffering and woe.
Absolute refusal of divorce would
be almost as bad as complete laXity
of the divorce laws. Still, the di-
vorce laws of the State should be re-
formed. The bishop was right in
calling the attention of the clergy
to the fact that they need not marry
divorce persons. A considerable
portion of the misery of married life
is caused through hasty and ill-timed
matches, in which the clergy plays
too eager a part.
Divorce and marriage are securing
serious attention from other denom-
nations of the State. We recently
noticed a long discussion of divorce
in the Conference Herald. Many
of the prominent ministers Of the
Methodist Conference took part, but
we failed to see any condemnation
of preachers who perform, for the
consideration of a small fee, MARI
ages which too often terminate in
divorce. Morning Nelos.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON. June g, So.

w fA4lAAfN@ Wv SAAN ~ AbJe'
The centre of political news is for the
time transferred from Washington to St
Louis, and even the knowledge that it will
shortly return is not sufficient to keep
Washington from being little bit envi-
GUS. Its generally predicted that the Con
venton will not finish up its work before
the close of the week, Notwithstanding the
avoidance of ANYTHING like real contest
over she nomination of the head of the
ticket Very few prominent Republicans
will get the news of the Convention in
Washington Those Senators and Repre-
sentatives who have not gone to the Con-
venHon have gone to their homes Among
the latter are Speaker Reed and Senator
Allison.
Senator Harris Subcommittee began the
bond investigation ordered by Senate reso-
luton, to-day. with the examination of Sec
rotary Carlisle, but 1t isn't conducted behind
locked doors as Mr.. Harris at first pro
posed.
There is no doubt about the ''hard luck
of the present administration. The turning
down of Carlisle and Hoke Smith and the
certainty that the Chicago Convention
will be for silver emphasizes it,and it seems
that the "hard luck" is to extend to the in
dividual aspirations of other members Of
the administration. Sometime ago Post
master General Wilson, the gentleman
whose name was given to the tariff bill
which was repudiated by the German
Brice combine in the Senate and replaced
by one only slightly better, announced that
he would try to get back to the House from
the second West Virginia district. This
didn't worry the Republicans even little

The British ship Grenada that ar
rived In port yesterday from Departure
Bay with cargo OF coal, came too late
by twelve hours TO save her charter,
contracted for when vessels were de-
naming and receiving 26 shilllngs and 3
pence per ton for wheat to England,
Now she will have to take her chances
In securing load with the big fleet
the bay, and at price that today was
quoted shillings lower than that stip-
ulated in the contract her delay had
broken The vessel was at Puget
Sound when G. w. McNear chartered
her to load wheat for Europe on condi-
tlon that she should be in this port
by November lst She had nearly a
month in which 10 make the voyage
from the Sound but her agents figured
on using her for that time to he ad-
vantage of her owners She was tow
ed to Departure Bay under contract to
bring cargo OF coal to San Fran
CISCO expecting that she would have
no difficulty in making the voyage in
time to save her charter. Instead, there
was long delay in loading her Then,
after she shook out her sails, she met
with strong southeast gales that held
her back and she did not make the port
until her charter had expired. In the
meantime many vessels had been maxi
ing the port seeking cargoes, and in
the scramble for loads prices kept 60
