EUROPEAN LETTER.
Sacred Dance in the Great
Cathedral of SeYill.
Special to THE HERALD.

Seville, Spain, July Is, 1886
Some one has said that dancing
is to Spain what music
is to Italy. Young and old,
fat and thin, they all, dance
whenever occasion presents it
self. On days of fiesta, the
clicking of castanets aud the
pa.tering Of feet are heard
everywhere. Children who can
hardly walk dance by instinct.
The gypsy dances are justly
noted for their grace and aban-
don, and the popular cafes
chsntants might be more ap
propriately named cafes dan
SAINTS. But not only is it the
general from Of amusement; the
Spaniards have followed the
example of the ancient Greeks
and Jews, introducing it in
their religious ceremonies. I'VE
were fortunate enough to with
ness one Of these celebrations
in the cathedral at Seville. Of
the cathedral itself, an Italian
writer of note says at was so
grand that | never speak of it
without unconsciously assum-
ing the tone and manner of
Salvini in Samson" l am sorry
to say we could not share his
enthusiasm. An earthquake
some years ago SO injured it
that the interior is disfigured
with scaffolding; and those who
ses it now remember less the
lofty arches and the dark beau
ty of Murillo's cherubs, than
the rough beams and ladders
that break every vista. As the
scene Of the religions dance
however, it was something never
to be forgotten.
The church was dark-it was
twilight, and only one chapel
was illuminated. A crowd Of
kneeling women filled the ais
les. A few priests stood around
the altar, and before it were
two rows of boys, aboutssten Oh
twelve years of age, dressed il
medieval costume, with tight:
and plumcd hats. Violin music
broke the profound silence, ani
the rows of boys began to ad
vance and retreat, to mingl'
and bow, in pleasing evolutions
Presently, without pausing il
their slow, graceful movements
they sang a low, harmonicu
chant. The sound of The it'll,
voices in the great vault, tn
sight Of the little creatures be
fore the great altar, the seriou
stateliness of their motion, th
quaint costume, the kneelinj
tbrong, the surrounding gloom
produced an impression as re
verential as that of a prayer.
The story is told that one G
: the former Archbishops of Sc
ville,who should evidently hav
: been born a Puritan, objecte
to the dance as profane an
ordered that it be discontinued
This aroused such opposition
not only from the cathedrs
authorities but among the il
habitants of Seville, that tn
matter was referred to the Pope
= The latter expressed his inabi

Home r1em0ries.

No word in the English
language is so sweet and full
of meaning as the little word
"home." We all know its
significance. We can never
escape its influence, nor sell.
dom do we desire to forget it's
hallowed associations.
Home is the common birth
place of humanity and the
nursery of society. The
thought of the immortal bard
of Home, Sweet Home" is
the general sentiment of all
mankind: "There is no place
like home"
A place to which one is at.
tached by so many tender and
yet strong cords can not soon
be forgotten. The aged man
of four score years of life, re.
members yet his childhood
days; the young man, who
leaves his home and mingles
with the world, however gay
and attractive apparently his
life may be, can not forget
the teaching Of home. Oh!
who can measure the intlu.
ence of the home altar, at
which parents and children
together bowed from day to
day in worship unto God!
Parents, you are home
builders. You are building
not only for time, but for
eternity; and if you will put
in your home good books and
good papers, your children
will rise up and call you
blessed when you are dead.
r. X. BLOCK.
The Forrest City herald., 1896-03-07

do the work that is before us.
Rev. Block suggested that we
begin the publication of a pa
per in Forrest City. After
thinking of it a day or SO, we
agreed.
We as a race should have
some encouragement to strive
on for virtue, education, and
wealth. Our people, as a
rule, are not satisfied unless
their preachers run over their
sermons as a race horse, 80 as
to create an excitement. If
their minds were fed daily
with bett,r thoughts, they
would soon have a better
taste. Hence a paper devoted
to religious and literary work,
placed in every home is our
ideal reformer.
Now let every man, those
with a family especially, take
this little paper in your home
to keep company with you,
your wife and children. No.
thing but such thoughts
adapted to build up, cherish,
and energise the struggling
man, shall be found within
her columns. We expect to
put it in every colored mans
home in this and the adjoin-
ing counties before we stop
Will you help us!
We also ask our white
friends to take it, that they
may see our effort for peace
and love to reign in our land.
The Forrest City herald., 1896-03-07
What the Race Wants Is COnfi-
dence in Each Other.

A man without confidence
in himself is like a boat with
out a hull, and q people with.
out confidence in each other
are like an engine without
the steam. What the negroes
want to do, if they ever ex.
pect to amount to anything,
is to unite their means and
join in with the business
world and open avenues by
which the young boys and
girls who are emerging from
our schools may have some
thing to do. They must have
an employment and we must
employ them, and If we fail,
our hope for the future is
lost.
Brethren, think and let us
think fast, for the war is on
us. Throw your little mites
together. Let us own cotton
gins, saw mills, corn mills,
broom factories, farms, gro
cery stores, dry goods stores,
drug stores, book stores, shoe
shops, wood shops, and hotels.
If we will do this all over the
South, in a few years you
would see a great change.
Now, friends, if we allow
ourselves to be content with
the present condition of
things, we will always be
hewers of wood and drawers
of water. w. s. SHERRILL.

Religious Reading.
THEsINvITATION.

Do we half appreciate the
valve of a definite, earnest,
personal invitation to become
a Christian! The question
is awakened by reading a lit
tie incident in a private let
ter just received, showing
how the word of truth may
lie dormant in a human soul
for years and at length bios
som and fructify into right
eous living. About twenty
years ago, a pastor, when on
exchange duty, noticed a boy
in the Sunday school class
which he taught that day
whom he thought ought to
be a Christian. Not satisfied
however, with a general pre-.
sentation of Christ's claims
in the class, the minister
took pains, the following day,
to walk a long distance to
the boys house, but did not
find him. Nevertheless, he
talked with the mother, a
poor widow, and left a ten.
der, earnest message for the
son, asking him to write the
stranger preacher, who left a
card and address, whenever
he surrendered himself to the
Saviour. The man moved to
another parish, and the seed
sown by the wayside was
nearly forgotten. After the
long lapse of years a letter in
an unfamiliar hand, as of a
working man, was forwarded
from the minister's former
place of residence, telling the
glad news of the mans con.
version last summer, and his
union with the church.
