Marriage is the very foundation OF

to say that respect for it is dying out.
for that would be to admit a swiftly
coming ruin, but is undoubtedly often
treated with too much levity. There is
too little of law and form surrounding
it. No wonder, when it is so easy

THE SHIP AT SEA.

The ship has put to sea,
And the sailors merily
Meath the wind-blOWn sails are singing of
the fairy shores to be.
They are singing they are singing,
While the harbOr bells are ringing
Farewell unto the brave ship like a gull
the ocean winging.
They ask not where they steer
Meath the sunny skies and clear,
But their trust is in their Captain and the
pillows bring no fear.
Though thick the dangers throng
Yet the voyage is not long,
And the dark brings dreams Of morning in
the rosy realms OF song.
They dream in storm and star,
OF the shores where white ships are,
And dreaming, hear the music of the har
bor-bells affair
Fair shores, in peace impearlcd.
Where the sea-torn flags are furled,
Whose songs of welcome win them from
Gods highway DER the world.
And so, they sail, and dream
Or a lOyelier mornings beam,
With all their white sails bending, and all
their lights a CLEAN.
They fare through storm and night,
But no dangers can alright
For their trust is in their Captain and the
harUOr is in sight

THE ANGELS SONG.
The Subject of the Richest Offerings
of Genius.
Wilmington MesSenger.)

Love has been the song ofthe angels
and of the earthly poets. Genius has
laid upon the shrine its choicest gifts,
its richest offerings. Shakespeare Of
all poets has written most and best Of
human love. The eternal Scriptures
are full of Gods love. He is love.
Men must have the rich, true, I'M
bounding human love or be lonely
and sad. But man, above all else,
must have the almighty love of the
Father and the self sacrificing, abound
ing, deep love of the Son or be indeed
most miserable. What says the book?
"For His great love wherewith He
loved u.s." Twice is it said "God is,
love" "For God SO loved the world
that He gave HIS only begotten Son,
that whatsoever belleveth in Him
should not perish, but have everlasting
life. The word whatsoever" is for
YOU specially. |, embraces in all of
lis iniiness all who will "belleve in
Hin" But that is Gods side in re-
denpiion. Man too has a side, a
work, duty to perform. He must
love God with all his mind, soul, heart,
strength. ::But the fruit of the Spirit
is love-" "The love Of God con-
straineth me-" "Beloved, let US love
one another" ole that loveth not
knoweth not God" "Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as myself" ga new
commandment | give unto you, That
We love one another" Where there
is love to God in any soul there will
be love to man, and where love is the
ruling principles of life acts Of kind
ness and sympathy and benevolence
will follow as certain as night follows
the day. Faith without works is
dead.' Remember, cherish, mediate
upon these things and it will be we'll
with you.

THE FAR EAST.
A Great Fire at Manila, With Loss
Of 100000 and Another at
Hakodate-- Seven Hundred Deaths
from the Plague at Bombay.

San Francisco, March 13.-The
steamer China, which sailed from Hong
Kong on February 18th, and from Yo-
kchama on February 24th, arrived here
to-day, bringing the following Oriental
advices
The Korean Financier will hereaf-
ter be managed by Russian bankers
residing at Seoul. All the monetary
transa actions of the kingdom will
henceforth be conducted by the Rus
sian-Korean bank, which was opened
at Seoul on February 18th, with a cap
ital of five million dollars. On
the first day that the bank was opened
for business the Korean treasury de-
posted one hundred thousand dollars
with the Russian financiers.
The building of first class Japanese
cruiser is about to be begun at Yokusa,
for the Mikado's government. The
japan mail deprecates the idea Of any
disturbance Of Oriental peace relations
through the possible failure OF China
to pay the installment of the indemnity
due in May, amounting to seventeen
and one-half million taels.
Confirmation has been received of the
great fire at Manila, but the losses are
estimated at S3,000,000, with 100000
insurance.
Prices for both American and Rus
sian kerosene have dropped to the
lowest quotations and there is little
business even at these low quotations.
Owing to the unexpected and con-
tinuous demands from Hong Kong and
Shanghai for coal and naval require
ments. the price of Japanese coal has
risen enormously in prices since the
doption of gold Recommendation in ia
pan, on October /, 1897. Up to and in
GLIDING February IT, 1898, the amount
Of silver and notes exchanged for gold
has aggregated twenty million yen, OF
which one-seventh was silver.
A dastardly attempt at wrecking be-
tween ASH and Yokkaichis stations,
resulted in the derailment of the train
and the injury of five passengers. 1t
was found that the rails had been
tempered with, and the entire train
was wrecked None of the injured
were fatally hurt.
BY a fire at Hallodate, on February
-. 800 houses were destroyed and over

no one knows whittier it goeth.
He riseth up clothed in the chilly
garments of the night, and seeketh
the commandment paregoric where
with to soothe his infant posterity.
He cometh forth as horse or OK, and
draweth the chariot of his offspring.
He spendeth his shekels in the pur-
chase of fine linen to cover the bos-
ON of his family, yet himself is seen
in the gate Of the city with one sus-
pender.
Yea, he is altogether wretched,-
