Always Right.

We observe the Seattle Daily Times is sustained by the city council in the stand it took on the water front ques- tion that was before the good people of that city for some time past. The man. agement of that great daily as conduct ed by Col. BIethen don't exactly suit the coast papers, and by our exchanges, we observe, that they have even gone so far as to say bad things about the edi- tor and propretor, but some how with all his faults, he seems to always get on the right side of the questions that come before the people. The Times is always found supporting measures that will benefit the city in which it is published, the state at large and the western coast. It cuts loose from its politics when the welfare of the nation is concerned, for it is an expansion pa per and it's editorials have ring of loyalty that straight Republican papers might be proud of.
 Col. BIethen took the Times when it was an insignificant paper and was be- ing carted around town changing hands every few months. In few years he made it one of the leading papers of the coast. A man that can do so much in so short time has some good truck in him. The Col. is fighter and has a fine line of scalps on his belt. Any of the totem pole fellows can testify to that and the N. P. Company also has some knowledge on the subject.
 When it comes to news, the Times has the best Washington correspondent of any paper on the coast while it's gen eraI local, state and national news col umns can't be beat. AS long as the Times continues to be as good paper as it now is, we will advise our readers to buy and read it.

There was q knock for admission at
the cabin door q little later. Sutherland
started to his feet, and Mr.. Yarnall en-.

was heaving up her anchor.
"l'm glad Of Il; he shall be ours the
sooner. Is everything ready for getting

Everything"
Every well; let him clear the Moro. and
then we'n follow him."
The two then ascended to the deck:
but the bark was already moving through
the water, having nothing set, however,
save her jib and spanker; under this sail
shA stood along for some time, and then,
contrary to Sutherland's wishes or ex-
pectations, she hauled down her lib, and
again let 60 her anchor. Shortly after

yards, and In a little time her courses
and topsails were unbent, and every up

"Mr. Yarnall." said Sutherland. ~ have
concluded to inform the Governor Of my

Sutherland was soon swept to the shore.
On getting out at the mole he desired the
cockswain to be at that particular place
at o'clock, aud proceeded at once to
the quarters Of the Governor. Though
long beyond the hours set aside for on
cial transactions, he was received by that
functionsry with all the characteristic

CHAPTER XIV.

When the time allotted the Sea King
for escape had expired, the Sparrow
Hawks anchor was hove up, and she
stood out to the harbor Of Havana under
press Of canvas. As It was Sutherland's
avowed intention to search for her In
every port of the West Indies, he shaped
his course for the Windward Islands,
and touched at them all In succession;
but his expedient was ineffective. and the
last one Of all the group sank again In
the blue waters Of the Caribbean without
his having obtained any tidings Of the
vessel 10 question. Dispirited at such III
success, he put his helm up, and again
returned to leeward. For three days the
weather continued favorable. the breeze
blew fresh and fair, and the sky was
without a cloud; but the morning Of the
fourth dawned loweringly upon the ocean.
With the first indications Of dawn dead
calm fell, and the air became oppressive

he goes on to say. as ne often does,
that the greater the improbability. the
more we like to believe 1t, when
he goes on to say that the
Bible is made up OF lot of manu-
scripts, one picked up here and an
other there and another from some
other place and that the whole thing is
an imposition on the credulity Of the
human race, l must reply to that
charge.
The Bible is made up OF the Old
Testament and the New Testament
Let US take the New Testament first.
Why do l believe it? Why do take it
to my hearto 1t is because it can be
traced back to the divine heart just
as easily as that aisle can be traced to
that door, and that aisle to that door.
Jerome and Eusebius in the first
century and Origen in the second and
other writers in the third and fourth
centuries gave list OF the New Testa-
ment writers just exactly correspond
ing with our list, showing that the
same New Testament which We
have they had in the fourth
century and the third century and
the second century and the first Geo.
tury. But where did they get the New
Testament? They got it from Irenae-
us. Where did Irenaeus get it? He
got it from Polycarp. Where did Poly
carp get it? He got it from St John,
who was the personal associate of the
Lord Jesus Christ. My grandfather
gave book to my father, my father
gave it to me, give it to my child Is
there any difficulty in tracing this
line?
On communion day I will start the
chalice at that end of the aisle, and
the chalice will pass along to the 9TH
er end of the aisle. Will it be difficult
to trace the line OF that holy chalics?
No difficulty at all. This one will say,
Il gave it to that one," and this one
will say, Il gave it to that one" But
it will not be SO long line as this to
trace the New Testament. It is easier
to get at the fact But you say, al
though this was handed right down in
that way, who knows but they were
lying imposters? How can you take
their testimony" They died for the
truth Of that book. Men never die for

They were not lying imposters. They
died in triumph for the truth Of that
New Testament

ready to believe that the New Testa-
ment is from the heart OF Christ, but
how about the Old Testament? Why
do you believe that" l believe the Old
Testament because the prophecies
foretoid events hundreds and thou
sands of years ahead-events which
afterward took place. How far can
you see ahead? Two thousand years?
Can you see ahead a hundred years?
Can you see ahead dve minutes? No,
no! Human prophecy amounts to
nothing. Here these old prophets
stood thousands Of years back, and
they foretold events which came &C.
curately true far on In the future cen
turies- Suppose should stand here
and say to you, Twenty-Five hundred
and sixty years from now, three miles
and half from the city OF Moscow,
there will be an advent, and it will be
