something almost awe Inspiring
in the music Of the Christmas

Christmas "wants" who sung,
who were they ? Unseen and I'M
known, we almost deemed them
beings of a fairer world sent
down to make Christmas delight

DAYS that these men who broke
the silence of the starry night
to tell us what "the herald angels

smoking of tobacco and the
drinking of porter, all our

ended there and then. AS we

Mrs. COrtland's Lecture.

Mrs. Cortland, the State Presi~
dent OF the w. c. 7. u, gave a
Bible reading, in the Methodist
church on Thursday afternoon,
December 18TH. The audience
was not large but thoroughly
appreciative. She spoke from
Proverbs, 3Ist chapter. Her
talk was to mothers and their
blessed privileges and RESPONSE
bilities; and how drink prevents
ed the mind and caused those to
perish who indulge themselves.
How we should keep the CON
hdence Of our children from their
youth up. by giving them our
confidence and be willing listen
ers always to their little trials
How a husband reposes conf )
dence i'll such a woman aud all
who know her love her, for her
price is above rubies. Also how
we should bring our daughters
up to improve themselves in
every way, and not to think SO
much of dress and worldly lives.
The mother must never be idle.
In olden times she had to spin
and weave, make candles and
help with the support Of the
family in many ways, and now
that times are changed and we
have none Of these things to do,
how much more time we have
fol- cultivation physically, men,
tally and in our homes.
She also spoke especially of
mothers keeping themselves up
III their education SO as to help
their children III school; and to
be always neat SO as not to
make them ashamed of them, or
III other words, to be progress
sive.
Her language was good, her
style pleasant, her delivery ex-
cellent, and>we are 'sorry there

Governor johnson, of Ala>
bama, in his recent inaugural
address, made the following
statement which should be care
fllly read by our tillers of the
soil:
\ careful study of the cons
dition Of the farmers of Alabama
convinces me that they owe less
money now than they have for
many years, and are freer and
more independent than all Of
their brethren in the United
States. A few years since corn
was brought into Alabama from
the West by the tralnload, and
nine tenths Of the meat cOnsume
ed was from Western hogs.
For the past few years we have
sent out of Alabama as much
corn as,we have brought Ill, and
the i'm Dortation of meat from
West has declined fully 90 Ter
cent. The farmers are raising
their own corn and meat and are
becoming more and more indie
pendent Of the West and the
merchants.
