sale of the cotton captured by the Fed

about $9O,O0O,OOO of this money, but a
portion of it was paid to the owners of
the cotton soon after the war. The re-
mafnder was left in the treasury and
has remained. there ever since. Sena-
tor Money, who is giving special at
tendon looking to the reopening OF the
subject, says that the sum left amount
eG 80 about $11,OO0,00O. A bill intro

Thing. which No Money Can Buy

Beware lest thou in any sense, in any
respect, despise the poor man because
of his poverty. Ever since Jesus Christ
lived in poor mans home and worked
at the carpenters trade the poor mans
house has been a sacred place and the
laboring mans vocation a sacred thing.
The earthly life of the Son of Man has
Illuminated and gloritied the plain and
homely things of human life. A mans
house may be a very humble one.
There may be no carpet on the floor,
the furniture may be plain, the fare
may be simple and scanty, but there
may dwell a glory there which shall
cause the plainest and poorest things
to shine with a radiance as from heav-
en-. Things may be there more pre-
cious than any that can be purchased
at the furniture dealers or at the
elothier's. Peace. contentment, kind
ness, affection. may be there-things
which no money can buy.-Christian
Intelligencer.

We live in an enemy's country. Sa-
tan Is the god of this world. He claims
to own it and to distribute his prizes
to those who serve him. He blinds hui
man minds and sways human hearts.
Jesus Christ seeks to gather out of the
world in which he holds such sway a
peculiar people, jealous of good works.
They are beset on every hand with
perils and temptations. Satan is not
willing to give them up. 1t becomes
them to be on their guard as they tray
Ell onward to better country. Grace
is promised them all along the way,
and they are safe only as they keep
close to their Saviour and in the path
of duty and holiness marked out for
them by an unerring Guide.-Presby-
terrain
