The Church and the Congregation

In the minds of many Christians, con
gregation begins with a capital G and
church with a small c. Nothing is need
ed so much just at present as to teach
them the reverse of this distinction.
The church is the greater thing and the
congregation many times the lesser.
The one is the whole of which the other
is but part, and part should never
seem greater than the whole. -Luth-
eran.

Trust Him for way when there is
no way, for light when there is no light,
for all things when you have nothing,
for joy when there is only sorrow, for
life when you are in the midst of death.
Thus you will find at last that faith is
not only righteousness, but life and joy
and peace. It T. Munger, D. D.

Mr.. Girard Earle, son of the late
Elias Earle, died st his home on Mon
day morning, the 2Sth inst, after a
confinement of two weeks with dysen-
terry. He enlisted some months ago in
the 1st s. G. v, and while at Chicka-
mauga he was stricken with typhoid
fever, which left his constitution in a
shattered condition, rendering him
unable to battle with the weakening
disease that followed. Last Friday
was his birthday, and he was, there
fore, three days over A years old.
Knowing him as we have from boy
hood, as school-mate, as a friend, all
through life, we feel that it is our duty
to speak a word to his memory. In all
the relations of life he was honest and
upright, kind-hearted and true; unas-
suming in his nature and quiet III his
disposition, his true worth was only
known by his intimate friends. A few
years ago he gave his heart to his Sa
yiour and united with Roberts Church,
and to the day of his death exelnpliiied
his profession by It godly walk. Only
. few hours before he died he express
ed himself as perfectly resigned to the
divine will. This family have been
sorely stricken. Sixo the family lave
died in as many years. They have and
justly deserve the deepest sympathy il
of all their friends in their SORROW.
His remains were inferred ut Shiloh on
Tuesday, the funeral services being
conducted by his pastor, Rev. Mr.
Ligon.

and shall publish once a week
for four successive weeks such no
tice in any newspaper circulating in

ate, proof of the posting and of pub
fishing Of such notice within twelve

TIE Climax To-Day.

The Climax To-Day.
The war situation reached a still more
acute stage yesterday. and to-day Is ex-
pec.ed to develop enough to Indicate tho
precise action that viii DE taken by
Congress, though 1t would not be sur
prisIns TO see the final action taken.
On tho Question OF armed intervention
In Cuba to stop the war and establish
i the freedom OF the Cubans Congress
seems to be practically Of one mind.
Whether the resolutions adopted Will In
clYde' a recognition Of independence, or
whether this feature will be left out and
3 the President will be simply empowered
to Immediately intervene with the army
and naval forces OF the country, and
force Spain cut Of Cuba, depends upon
the temper Of the majority OF both
houses. Certain ct is that a measure OF
i force will be adopted with view TO ac-
compllshing the freedom. of the island.
which will be virtually declaration OF
war, and result in an almost immediate
Inauguration OF hostilitles. There Is
scarcely a ray Of hope that anything can
occur to prevent war. i 4
The foreign affairs committees OF tho
two houses arc evidently determined to
bring about a definite action without, de-
lay, and it is possible that In the desire
to. relieve the strain as soon as possible
both houses willagree on some measure
Of intervention without an unnecessary
amount Of time being consumed in de-
oate. In the meantime. everything is in
preparation for quick action by the
2 naval and military forces, and the Presf-
dent stands ready to execute the oblga-
lions that are to be imposed upon him. s
An interesting feature Of the situation
Is that TIE Maine tragedy is assuming
the proportion OF q leading issue. and
the conclusion Of Congress on that point
will In all probability be Incorporated in
Fhatsver resolution is adopted. To-
day will be a history making day. IS
