abolitionist, the earnest, faithful

a hard road to weed in steering

Responsibility. OF y -
Parents to Children.

If it is asked why there are so
many drunkards and gamblers
and murderers in this country,
or why our jails and peniten-
tiaries are full to overflowing, or
why our young men use profane
language so freely, and desecrate
Gods day so freely, and indulge
so freely in intoxicating drinks,
it may be replied that parents
have not discharged their obliga-
ti3af @oGfat to outh theeir. e.s; Children: i'd If they
be furnished with good counsel
ors, our churches with consistent
members and efficient office-bear-
ers, our homes would be happy,
and our country prosperous.
What must parents do in order
| that they may meet their obliga-
ton to their children?
l. They must set their children
the proper example. David was
deficient in this respect. He
committed murder and adultery.
How could he expect anything
better of his children? Was not
Absalom soon walking in his foot
steps? Young people will not
guage, desecr5te uou . ueJ.|. -
indulge in strong drink, they will
do likewise. If their parents
neglect Gods word and his
house, and give little of then
means towards the promotion Of
: his cause, they will not do an!
better. Unless people banlsl
e their children from their pres
: ence, they will exert an influenc
d over them either for good or TO
n evil. This influence is might

rnenr children.

The most essential thing is
firmness. When children are
commanded to do a thing they
should be made to do it. If kind
words are not sufficient to the
accomplishment of that end, the
rod should be used, not in fit of
anger, but in a spirit of kindness.
III. They must give their chill
dren religious training. Many
parents fail to meet their obliga-
tions to their children in this re-
spect. Family worship is sadly
neglected. How can people who
hffaaysf hffaa tf,Inlqf not .eS. erected an altar to God
OF their children to be saved?
Wherever Abraham cast his tent
he erected an altar to God, and
God blessed him and his seed af-
ter him. If parents wonld faith
fully instruct their children in
the principles of the religion of
Christ, they would not come so
far short of discharging their
duty to them. How few COM
paratively do this! They spare
no effort to cultivate their minds,
but their spiritual interest is
something that they scarcely
think of. They are anxious for

slaves on vessels than on trains
or private conveyance. They
could be stored away in coal, hay,
or whatever kind of cargo the
boat might be laden. If there
was believed to be danger of be-
ing overtaken the slaves were
put ashore and piloted to one of
the stations not far removed from
the canal, and there were num-
ber of these along the line in
Maryland and West Virginia
(then Virginia.) These stations
were simply the homes of fami-
lies either stockholders in the un-
derground or those who had been
paid literally for utilizing their
homes and premises for such pur-
poses. One of these stations is
still in a fair state of preserva-
ton on the outskirts of Martin
vile, West Virginia, while along
the line of the canal and the Bal
timore and Ohio Railway there
are number of frame and log
houses which are pointed r',t, as

Another sentinel who Jared
badly was S. A. Smith, he hav-
ing boxed up a negro boy named
Henry Brown, at Richmond, Va,
and sent him by express to the
headquarters in Philadelphia.
The Richmond authorities gave
Smith seven years in the State
penitentiary. About the same
time negro named Jack Chris
tian fell in with the underground
agents and left his home in the
family of Ex-President Tyler.
Christian had been ona--~f5rhe

negro named William Jones was;
shipped in a box from Baltimore
to Philadelphia, and he came
near losing his life, the box be-
ing delayed in shipment and the
fugstive slave was three days
without water or food. Careful
nursing brought him around and
then he went in the field to aid
others.

He managed to escape to Cincin-

yer, DEL, where he was caught
red-handed in his work. After
a trial he was convicted and sent
to prison, and then advertised
for safe. The officials were post
