Recently an American firm got a
contract TO supply the Russian city
OF Odessa with a large quantity of
water pipe, the contract being secur-
ed IN competition with manv other
manufacturers, among them a French
firm. The latter applied to the Gov
eminent, which opened negotiations
with the Russian government on the
subject. The claim was made that
the contract should be given 10 the
French firm because of the friendly
relations between the two government
The St. Petersburg authorities
directed the governor of Odesss to

he was unable to induce the CITY

Defends r. 6. InoersoI.

Following IL communication by
Hon. I G. Richmond of Madison pub
lisned in the Madison State Journal
Of July rs:
To the Editor: Robert g. Ingerso
is now no more among the sons Of
men, and when that eloquent tongue
is still in death, those who write or
speak Of him should at least have a
decent respect for truth 1t is the
custom not changed in the least since
his death-to write and speak of him
as one who made war on religion,
made light Of sacred things, and took
from his fellow-men the hope OF
better life beyond the grave.
Nothing could be further from the
truth than these charges They are
cruelty unjust, shamefully false, abb
solutcly uniustiiable. No gentler,
truer, sweeter spirit than that Of
Robert q Ingcrsol has for centuries
visited our world. He always hoped
for better things beyond this life Of
care. He tried to rob death Of its
fears, the grave OF its horrors, and to
drive forever from the human heart
the awful fear Of everlasting pain He
exalted home and made it the shrine
at which all true hearts worship.
| consider it q privilege to come to
the defense Of the memory Of such q
man against those who would traduce
him, now that he has passed away.
He made mistakes because he was
human; but the truths that he uttered
will abide; the falsehoods he denounced
will lose their force, and the evils he
so vigorously assaulted will gradually
die out
Standing at an open grave, if we
cannot afford to be generous and
magnanimous, we ought to be either
truthful or silent. When the bereaved
ones are sitting in the shadow Of the
greatest sorrow that can come to wife
or child, let Us respect the sacred dust
TO which they SO lovingly cling

TO Revive The Organization.

An effort is being made in this city
to re-establish the Primitive Metho-
dist church which recently was dis
organized by large majority Of the
members uniting in the organization
Of Congregational church. Those
who did not unite with the new or
ganization have for the pas couple Of
years been without an organization, a
church building or regular pastor,
and becoming weary Of being deprived
Of the facilities for worship according
to the modes and forms OF their faith
ers have resolved to revive the organ
ization in which they have worshipcd
for so many years, and in pursuance
of this determination, have secured
the services Of Rev j Leroy Taylor,
a young and active minister Of the
old church, and united effort will
be put forth by him and the remain
der of the members to re-organize and
continue the services as heretofor

Waiting only waiting, till the shadows long

Waiting, only waiting for our triumphs &c

can do.
Waiting, only waiting. life is only one long

Waiting only waiting, for our pleasures and
our fate.
Waiting, only waiting. Oh how much some
have to wait
Waiting, on yes waiting tin perhaps ii is too
late
1t seems sometimes as though it
were more than we can do. waiting
only, how the weary hearts long for
rest, and the oyerworked mind, how
eagerly it grasps at anything which
for time may ease and rest it
from the terrible strain which is inn
posed upon it day after day, week
after week, and month after month;
and to know that after all the weary
waiting there will be no recompense,
there will be no happiness in the flu
ture, all blank, dreary rainy day,
with the slow drip, drip on the damp,
cold ground while the bare leafless
trees throw out their long arms
against the leadened sky like grim
specters doomed forevermore to soli-
tude and wretchedness. | often Won
der why we were not made so that
when life ceases to have one spot Of
brightness and there is nothing TO
hope for in the future, why we were
not created so that we might say, and
say gladly too, Father | have lived
long enough, take me unto thyset
for | am so weary and would rest.
How many of US would be called upon
to mourn for our dearest friends
whom we now think perhaps the
very happiest of people. Every heart
has its own sorrows and we are often
deceived by smiling face and cheer
ful manner. More hearts break with
a smile than with moan. The world
must not know and so be gay while
the cruel pain almost STILES us and
sometimes when the strain has been
too great and nature rebels, then that
is called a sudden attack Of one Of the
numerous diseases always ready on
doctors tongue, or we say ourselves
1t was only pain in the heart and
how true that is, so the world IS sat
islied, and we take up the burden
again and plod YEARLY along acting
our part in the great drama of life

crown when the cross is laid down?
And will there be joy for every tear

every heart ache here below?

replaced and little damage done to

And a woman's wonderful love?
DO you know you have asked for this priceless thing

Man-like you have questioned me
Now stand at the bar of my woman's soul
Until shall shall question thee
You require your mutton shall always be hot
Your socks and your shirts shall be whole
require your heart to be true Gods stars.
And pure heaven your soul
You require a cook for your mutton and beef;
require a far better thing;
