Brave Sailors of Other Wars.

In a sort of despair over the contin-
ued crop of nettles springing from the
Schley case, some one in Philadel-
phia paper says lit will dim the glory
of the greatest victory ever won upon
the sea-" The writer of that judg-
ment could not have been familiar
with the times of Farragut, Win
slow and Worden. Farragut, with
the Hartford and many other wooden
ships on the Mississippi, in the fight
with Forts Jackson and st. Philip and
with rams, gun boats and fire RATS, at
Mobile, where he had himself laShed
in the rigging to overlook the battle
ordered his wooden ships to ram at
full speed, bow on. The rebel ram at
Tennessee did not fire a gun after the
Hartford struck it.
When the Kearsarge met the Ala
bama off Cherbourg in armament
| they were evenly matched. They
| fought in circles, closing in. With
| either of these battles (and several
more might be named) neither battle
| of the Spanish war is to be named
| in comparison. The enemys ships
were not mere targets from which you
could draw away for breakfast, a cup
| of coffee, or a loop" Both combat
ants We're of the give and take kind,
| and the battles were won by the most
| consummate skill and bravery.
| Would 1t not be well for the present
| generation to read some naval history,
| and learn what our naval battles have
| been where the combatants were
somewhere near matched? Farragut
was the son of Spaniard and Win
slow a native of North Carolina But
both fought the battles of the union
to a finish, and their deeds should
never be NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Trans

The Pitch of Our Lives.

Not long ago lady who has had
much experience in training singers,
said: 81 presume that pupils often
wonder why l am constantly striking
chords on the piano. l like to do it
because in that way 1 can discover the
natural pitch of their voices as it is
revealed in conversation when they
are unaware that anyone is taking
note of the key in which they talk"
The Rev Charles A Fulton of Syra-
cuse, commenting on this conversation
says: 81 could not but think that
GOD must often strike the chords of
the great harp of life as he marks the
character of our unstudied actions,
that he may discern. when we are not
posing and when we are not aware
that judgment is being passed, what
the natural pitch of our lives is. For,
after all, it is not so much the delib-
crate endeavors as the spontaneous,
unprecedented acts that reveal the
character"

Phrase Coined by Gen. Grant.

"By the way" said Capt Mum.
Gen. Grant coined good many
phrases that have come into very
general use. In January 1862, T and
three others were with General Grant
when he made reconnaissance
from Fort Holt to Columbus, KY.
Near the latter place the fly of tent
had been spread, and under this Gen.
Grant and myself were awaiting the
return of scout whom Grant had sent
forward to discover whether there
were any signs of the enemy.
I'VE had not waited long when the
scout rode up in a state of great ex-
element. his horse fairly covered
with foam. Gen. Grant went out
quietly to meet him, and after a few
moments conversation returned to the
tent as quietly as he had gone and
said to me and the others. We must
get out of here or we will be gobbled
up That was the first time l ever
heard the expression used in that way,
and l have always believed that Grant
originated it, just as he originated the
phrase bottle up which he applied to
General Butler later in the war. We
rode away quietly but rapidly, Gen.
Grant showing no excitement over his
narrow escape from the clutches of
the enemy."-Chicago Inter-Ocean.

Need of the Religious Principle

Need of the Religious Principle.
confess I look round on civilized
society with many fears, and with more
and more earnest desire that a regen-
Grating spirit from heaven, from re-
ligion, may descend upon and pervade
it. 1 particularly fear that various
causes are acting powerfully among
themselves to inf1ame and madden that
enslaving and degrading principle, the
passion for property. This peril is in
creased by the spirit of the times,
which is a spirit of commerce, indus
try, internal improvements, mechani-
cal invention, political economy, and
peace. There is danger that these
blessings may by perversion issue in a
slavish love of lucre. l am no foe to
civilization. l rejoice in it's progress.
But without pure religion to modify
Its tendencies, to inspire and refine it.
we shall be corrupted, not ennobled by
1t. 1t is the excellence of the religious
principle, that it aids and carries for
ward civilization, extends science and
arts. niu.tiplies the conveniences and
ornaments of life, and at the same
time spoils them of their enslaving
power, and even converts them into
means and ministers of that spiritual
freedom which, when left to them
selves. they endanger and Destroy

Need. of the N.tlona, Guards.

Unanimous support is given by prom
Illinois, Wisconsin. Iowa, Michigan and
Indiana to the bill recently introduced
in congress for increasing the efficiency
of the militia. The c1tizen-soldiers say
the bill, If it becomes a law. is bound
to improve the service, at the same
federal government reserve force ca
pable of meeting all emergencies.
Since the Spanish-American war
there practically has been a complete
reorganization of the National Guard
in the five states named, and the guard
now is on the same basis as that gov
erning the regular army. consequent
marked Improvement has been the re-
suit yet it is admitted that there are
limitations which the state govern
ments cannot hope to overcome with
out the aid of the general government.
First in Importance of the needs OF
the National Guard, which the bill is
designed to FILL is the lack of equip
ment in arms and stores. National
Guard officers who are conversant with
the condition of the troops in their re-
spective states particularly approve
that section of the bill which provides
the National Guard with the regular
army pattern smokeless powder maga-
zine rifles and carbines. The officers
say this need was made clear during
the Spanish-American war.

Tho Gain of Loss and Lack.

We often pray for things that we
lack and long for. We do not so often
thank God for good things that he has
given U.S. and which we should long for
and might even pray for, if we lack
them. Is this right? Will God under
stand from this that our prayers to
Him, and our communion with Him,
will be increased by our lack rather
than by our fulness? Do we pursue
the course that we do in order to show
God that the way to us nearest to Him
Is to deprive us of much that we value.
and to see to it that we have always
cause for earnest longing? Judging by
our own experience, are we not more
richly blessed spiritually when we have
fewest temporal advantages and bene-
fits? There is truth in Mrs. Norton's
words:
"Those who have fewest joys know
joys true measure;
They who most suffer, value suffer-
ing's pause.
They who but seldom taste the SIM
plest pleasure
Kneel oftenest to the Giver and the
Cause"

On What Life Deepen DIS.

The duration of life does not appear
to depend so much upon the strength
of the body, or upon the quantity of
it's excitability, as upon an exact ac-
emulation of stimuli to each of them.
A watch spring will last as long as
an anchor, provided the forces which
are capable of destroying both are al
ways in an exact ratio to their
strength. This golden thought is COM
mended to those who make no effort
to control their temper. Every time
you let your angry passions rise you
tax or strain the forces SO nicely or
ganiZed to carry you far down the
green slope of green old age. The
violent and irregular actions of the
passions tend to wear away the
springs of life.-Dr. Benjamin Rush.

Sa tan on the Alert,

When you feel you are safest from
the attack of Satan says the Rev. G.
Campbell Morgan, who is conducting
tn. "Question Glass for Christians in
The Rams Horn, you are most in
danger of becoming a victim of his
wiles. Show me the man who has
some spiritual experience-call it con-
version or second blessing. or any
thing you please-and who, coming
out of that experience, says: Now l
am safe. 1 have passed the region of
temptation; / have gained the mas
terry" and l will show you the man in
supremest danger. 1t is the man who
clings tenaciously, out of the agoniZed
sense of his own weakness, who is
strong; and not the man who stands
erect, and says temptation can have
no power over him. Satan has no re-
spect for any building, or convention
or religious frame of mind man has
ever possessed. The pure soul of
Jesus was met with temptation when
the divine voice had been heard and
the divine approval declared.
The Jennings daily record., 1902-03-28
Origin of the Sabbath.

The Sabbath as a religious instltu-
ton iS far older than the Pentateuchal
legislation.
1t, too, can be traced back to a
Babylonian prototype, not however,
as day of rest from labor, but as a
kind of atonement day, when by vari-
Gus rites and by observing certain re-
stricted regulations the anger Of the
gods could be appeased.
On this old institution the Hebrews
ingrafted their religious ideas and pro-
duced the unique Institution of a day
observed as respite from the week s
toll, and which, from being an Gin
auspicious occasion, a dies irae, is
viewed as a delight PROT Morris
Jastrow in the Independent.
