the boldest exploits in our navy's

Preble wac threatening the city with

ceived that he could use His prisoner
to good advantage. So, with n great
assumption Of considerate kindness,
he kept the American close to his own
apartments in the castle, taking care
that the hostile fleet should not be
ignorant of the fact.
But, again this intractable captive
continued to send message to his
countrymen, urging them to turn their
guns full on the castle and to take
no thought of him. "Just what Hob

cxclaiming. And Capt. Preble, far-see-

Among civilized nations such prac-
tices are universally condemned, and
except as an extreme measure OF re-
taliation are almost unknown. In wars
between barbarous nations the trick
is not likely to be effective, since the
savage warriors are merely excited to
greater fury in the attack. and are
sure to take bloody revenge. About
the only cases, therefore, are such as
arise in conflicts between civilized
forces and barbarians who hope to
gain advantage by playing upon the

SOUTHERN
PROGRESS.

A monthly, six.een-page
journal containing in each
number some twenty nara
tives of the South, chiefly
descriptive and pictorial.
The paper is undoubtedly
the best illustrated journal
in the world, and the only
publication which presents
glimpses of Southern life
and Southern people. 1t
is a favorite souvenir with
! those who have visited the
South; and it serves q good
purpose, in lieu of q visit,
to those who have never
been there.
The regular price Of

cents a year, but to introduce
the paper we will send it
three months for ten cents.

PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.

One OF the first duties OF n Christian Is
to be well defended from attack. to be
so entrenchcd In the truths OF the Cos
pei! no full OF faith and love, so strong
IN his consciousness Of right, 30 posi-
tive on the side Of Christ, that the enc
mics OF religion will nspnlly help him
and bring him aid rather than attack
him.
Revivnls OF religion, even when they
do not accomplish all that could be de-
sired. and have 70 be repeated again
and again. yet accomplish wonderful
work FOR the salvation OF men.

A Ground,ess Apprehension.

So much has been said in the public
prints and elsewhere as to possible dis
turbances and trouble on the Atlantic
coast in view of the present war, and
also Of the lurking danger in submarine
mines and torpedoes with which our
harbors have been protected, that the
timidity of a large number of people
has been increased, and many have re-
Trained from making their annual
spring outing to one of the seaside re-
sorts.
The best proof that these dangers
are imaginary is found in the fact that
the great coastwise lines continue to
operate their schedule uninterruptedly.
For instance, the steamships of the Old
Dominion Steamship company, running
between New York and Virginia, have
lost none of their trips, and do not ex-
pect to do so.
To the many attractions of this COM
pany's short sea route along the New
Jersey, Delaware and Virginia coasts,
which is considered free from all risk,
is added the gathering of warshiDs,
stripped for action, in Hampton Roads.
Interest in Fort Monroe, Old Point
Comfort, Newport News, Hampton
Roads and Washington has never at
tanned greater height since the civil
war.

HUGUENOTs.

Lecture by Rev. George B. Cutting.
At the First Presbyterian church the
Rev. George B. Cutting of the West
minister church of Yonkers, N. Y, lee
tured on the "Huguenots." The lee
turer described in an interesting ac-
count the increase of the Huguenots
in France after the printing of the
Bible in the French language, the
atrocious persecution Of the sect cul-
minating in the massacre of st. Bar
tholomeW's eve and the final result to
the French nation of these persecu-
lions. On this latter point the speaker
said that the middle class of France,
who were Huguenots, were wiped out
by the massacres, leaving only the
aristicratic and lower classes. This
social disarrangement could not but be
injurious to France and the revolutions
in France commencing with 1892 were
the legitimate outcome of the persecu-
lions.
The next lecture in the course has
not yet been announced.
