SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPR SENTATIVES-
J. 8ynopla of Proceeding * In the Henata andJ-Uqum mf Iteoretetxtallce-
t.Sksate. . In tho bonato on tho 5th a-
message from tho president was received-vetoing tho bill grouting a pension to-
Mary Ann Doherty. Tho president-shows the bad character of the woman ,
aud that the husband , ou account of-whoso death n pension was desired , is-
alive and is himself drawing n pension-.lie
.
says ho would yield to no man in a-
desire to see those who had defended tho-government liberally treated , but tho-pension list should bo a roll of honor-and not a matter of indiscriminate alms-giving.
¬
. The conference report on the-agricultural appropriation bill was pre-sented
¬
and explained in detail by Mr-.Plumb.
.. The conference report was con-
curred¬
in and a further conference was-
asked , on sorghum. A conference was-ordored on tho postoflico appropriation-bill , and Senators Plumb , Allison and-Beck appointed.-
IIorsE..
. In tho house on tho 5th sev-
eral¬
unimportant bills wcro reported-and referred and tho house then went-
into committee of the whole on the bill-
for the settlement of tho claims of tho-statu of Florida for expenses incurred-in suppressing Indian hostilities. The-morning hour having expired tho bill-went over without action , and Mr. IIol-inati
-called up tho senate land grant for-
feiture¬
bill with amendments niudo by-
tho house committee after substitute-amendments had been offered. Tho-iir- t proposition in order was Mr. Store'samendment to make tho forfeiture com-plete
¬
as to all lands where tho terms of-
the grant had not been complied with-.The
.
aif endment was rejected ; yeas GO ,
nnys 101. The question was then put-on Mr. Payson's minority amendment ,
winch was similar to the senate bill-.The
.amendment was rejected ; yeas 71 ,
nays 12.) Tho committee's substitute-was then adopted , and , tho question re-curring
¬
on the passage of tho bill as-
amended , tho voto resulted 141 yeas ,
unj's 121 no quorum-.Senate.
.
. In the senate on the 2d the-
river and harbor bill Avas considered.-Tho
.
demand for a separate vote on tho-Hennepin canal amendment was with-
drawn¬
by Vest , on the suggestion that-tho question might bo left to tho confer-euco
-
committee , but subsequently a mo-tion
¬
to reconsider was mado b}' Sher-man.
¬
. As to the amendment abolishing-th Missouri river commission , Vest-offered to withdraw it at the request of-
Piddock , but Plumb insisted upon a-
voto being taken and made an argument-against the further continuance of tho-commission. . At the close of a long dis-
cus-
> ion tho amendment abolishing tho-Missouri river commission was disagreedt-o. . Tho bill was then passed. It ap-propriates
¬
S0247f.7S3 , having been in-
creased¬
by tho senato §912000. On mo-tion
¬
of Hoar tho fishery treaty and Mor-gan's
¬
resolution thereupon were post-poned
¬
till Tuesday next.-
IfocsE..
. In the house on tho 1st-
among bills introduced and referred was-
.one. by Anderson , of Iowa , providing-for the control and regulation of rail-
roads¬
acquired by the IJnited States un-
der¬
judicial foreclosure or forfeiture.-This
.
is tho bill introduced by Anderson-in April last. It is a very long measure ,and Anderson demanded its reading in-
full in order to consume time and pre-prevent
-. as long as possible the offering-of the motion for tho passage of tho Un-iou
-
Pacific funding bill under a suspen-sion
¬
of the rules. For au hour and a-
half the reading clerk was uninterrupted-in his monotonous reading of the bill ,
but at 12:30 the proceedings were diver-sifiett
-
b3* Bland with a motion to ad-journ
¬
, which was , however , declared out-of order pending the reading , and again-the wearjclerk resumed his task-Finally the reading was concluded , but-Anderson , of Iowa , was on his feet and-Immediately introduced a bill to estab-lish
¬
a municipal code for the District of-Columbia a volume of 321 pages and-called for its reading.I-

OF SEVEN HUNDRED MILES.-

Display that the State of Oregon is to-
Jii7. -i? on the Fourth-.Portland
.
fUrs.) dispatch : Oregon is-
going to have an illumination on the-
Fourth of July which will no doubt at-
tract¬
attention around the world. Last-year a imrty of five adventurous and-sturdy young men ascended Mount-Hood nearly to the summit , which is12,300 feet high , each carrying twenty-pound -* of red lire , and at 11:30 p. m-
.set.
tire to it. The illumination was-
seen in this city, fifty-two miles distant-as the crow llies , by more than forty-thousand people , who were watching-for it, and persons living in southeast-ern
¬
Oregon , 110 miles from tho "snowy-sentinel , " saw the blaze plainly.-
This.
year a chain of snowcovered-peaks , stretching from northern Cali-fornia
¬
nearly to the British Columbia-line, a distance of 700 miles , will be il-
Iitniiimted-
with red fire. Tho commit-tee
¬
in charge of the coming celebration-iu this city smrtedthe ball rolling b}* a-
liberal appropriation for illuminatingMounts Hood. St. Helen's and Adams ,all three within sixty miles of Portland.-The
.
matter has been placed in tho-bunds of William G. Steel , secretary of-the Oregon Alpine c'ub , who will super-intend
¬
personally the work on Mount-Hood. . lie has already organized a-
party of eight, and will leave here June30. Other Portland parties will attend-to Adams and St Helen's.-
A.
iwrty from Eugene will illuminate-the Three Sisters , near the head of the-Williaraette valley , about 120 miles south-of here , and a party from Ashland will-illuminate Mount "Pitt , a peak forty-miles north of the California. Arrange-ments
¬
have been perfected by the citi-zens
¬
of Sissons , Cal. , to burn red fire on-the summit of Shasta. Ihey will have-to undergo little hardship , as the grand-est
¬
of Pacific coast snow peaks is only-sixteen miles distant. The citizens ofSeattleV . T. , will iiluminato MountIfcunwr, and the Port Townsend peopleare expected to take care of MountBaker-
.Should.
tho night prove cloudless , r.person on any of the hills back of Port-land will be able to see thy fire burning-t n five mountains , namely , Eainer , St-.Helta's
., Adams. Hood and the Three-
Sinters. . Each illuminating partjwill be-Wo to see the work of at least one of
tke others. K&iuier will be able to see-Hood , Hood to see tho Three Sisters ,aad so on down to Shasta. The only-problem i> the weather. Ascents of the-mountains have been made innumerablet-iM s and it "was demonstrated last year-that one man if he be strong and willing-eaa pack a load of twenty pounds.-Those
.who touch off the red fire mus-
trmmu on the summit until daylight , and-this requires what Bobert Collyer , the-Scoth. . blacksmith , calls "clear grit ;" bnt-
n enough have been found to do it-

trust devised for the procurement ol-
masses for the repose of a soul shall be-valid , that there most bo a beneficiarydeai aated by the testator.

Opening or Ihe Cincinnati Exposition-.Tho
.gates of tho Cincinnati exposition-
woro thrown open at 9 o'clock on tho-morning of tho 4 th. At 11 o'clock the-formal opening exercises began at Mu-sic
¬
hall. Tho stago was filled with tho-May festival chorus and Cincinnati or-
chestra.¬
. Tho entranco of Governor-Foraker , Governor Thayer of Nebraska ,Governor Gray of Iudiana , Governor-Beaver of Pennsylvania , with their bril-liant
¬
staffs , and Hon. John Sherman-and Hon. Benjamin Butterworth , was a-
signal for hearty applause An elo-
quent¬
pra3or was offered by Bov-.Georgo
.
P. Thaj'or. Governor Foraker-made tho welcoming address. Ho be-gan
¬
by naming the governors and others-who wero present upon tho platform.-"When
.ho named tho Inst on the list,
"that illustrious son of Ohio , Senator-Sherman , " there was a tempest of ap-plauso
-
Avhich bid fair to interrupt thoproceedings.-
Governor.
Foraker made tho point that-this exposition was national in its char-acter
¬
, intended to bo illustrative and-commemorative of the progress of Ohio-and the central states in the past centu-ry.
¬
. It was but a foAV minutes of 12-
o'clock and President Allison announced-that thoy would Avnit for the signal from-Mrs. . Polk to start tho machinery. Sud-denly
¬
a gong in tho hall sounded. A-
ripplo of applause ansAvered tho signal ,and Governor Foraker explained to tho-audience that the gong had been sound-ed
¬
by electricity touched l >3r tho finger-of Mrs. Polk at her home in Nashville.-Then
.tho little ten-year-old daughter of-
President James Allison , stopped to the-side of tho stage , and , pressing an elec-tric
¬
button , gaAro tAvelve signals on the-gong , and put in motion the ponderous-machinery of tho exposition. President-Allison then formally declared tho expo-sition
¬
open. After this brief addresses-Avcro made by tho gentlemen named ,Governors Thayer , Gray and Beaver ,Lieuteimut Governor Bryan , Hon. Ben-jamin
¬
Buttterworth and Hon. John-Sherman , and tho ceremonies were-ended. . Tho great parade started-promtly at 2:30 and moved without seri-ous
¬
delay over a six milo route. It re-quired
¬
two hours to pass a given point-and was Avitnessed throughout by de-lighted
¬
crowds.-
THE
.
PARNELLITES VS. THE D0NNELLITES-
.From
.
Whom tho London "Times" is & irj > -jyoseit to Have Got Its liifurniation-
.London.
, July ( J. The Parueliitea ae-
nounco O'Donnell for tha course he pursued-in his nction against the Times. They-
Buspect that Ryan , the man known as "No.1. " is tho person from whom the Times got-
its information concerning tho league. In-
the lobbies of the h use of commons torlay-the members of the Iri ih party denied that-ParnelLevcr paid liyruo 100 Ihey said-the 100 given by him was in the shape of-
checks signed by Justice McCarthy aud-represented league subscriptions.-
Oa.
the assembling of tho commons to-
day¬
Parnell rose to make an explanation-concerning tho statements mado in connec-tion
¬
with the O'Donnell-Times trial. Ho-
said the upshot of the trial prevented his-
testimony on oath , and therefore ho would-tender a statement to the house. He took-up each of the etters and statements al-
leged¬
against him on the trial , and denied-them seriatem. Tho letters ho mo-
tioned¬
by date separately and characterized-each as forgery. He added : "If they are-credited it makes out that I deliberately-put myself in tho power of a murderer ; that-I Avas an accessory to the Phoenix park-before anu after the fact , and that I entered-Kiluiainham jail desiring to assassinate Mr-.Forester.
.. Tlio absurdity of the Avhole se-
ries¬
of letters , Avith few exceptions , shows-thom to be forgeries. "
Justin McCarthy , it was announced ,would also make a personal explaaation to-
tho bouse later in the day. The costs in-
curred¬
by the Times in defending the suit-brought by O'Donnell amount to 12,000-.It
.
will try to make O'Donnell liable for tho-amount. .
Not Much'to Expect from Congress-
."Washington.
special : Interest in con-gress
¬
is diverted toAvnrd politics. There-is now no hope for any general legisla-tion
¬
ofgreat importance at this session-.The
.
work of the committees is done ,
and the result is upon the calendars of-
the two 'houses. The senate is far-ahead of the house in clearing up its-
work. . Tho senate calendar has but six-
toen-
pages , Avhile that of the house has-considerably above one hundred. They-have introduced already about fourteen-thousand bills in this session. r&There-has been action b3' committees on about-onethird this number, and the tAA-ohouses Avill take action upon one-half or-onethird of those acted upon by tho-committees so that 8 or 10 per cent of-
tho measures proposed will become laws-.More
.
than half of these probably two-thirds
-
ai-e pension bills for individuals-.There
.
is no prospect for any general-pension legislation in this congress.-
Only.
about one-half of the congress-ional
¬
districts throughout tho countryhave made nominations , and probably-onethird or one-fourth of them will not-nominate until about the time congress-adjourns , which is now beligA'ed to be-about the second week in August. This-causes great anxiety among many mem-bers
¬
in the house , and they AA'ill bend-every effort to get aAvay as soon as possi-ble.
¬
. If it were not for the pending tariff-bill there would be absolutely no inter-est
¬
taken in the proceedings of the house-or the senate beyond private bills , and-there are not many members Avho have-measures of local interest now. The dis-cussion
¬
on the tariff bill , Qf course ,keeps up interest to a considerable ex-tent
¬
, inasmuch as almost daily articles-in the bill are reached which have a local-bearing to almost every member. If the-tariff bill should be disposed of as antic-ipated
¬
by Mr. Mills , within two or three-weeks the interest in tho house will go-out like the bottom from a tub.-

.
Great Sensaiion in St Louis.-
St..
. Louis , Mo. , July 7. The most-startling social sensation that has occurred-here for years was revealed to the public-
this afternoon , when it was announced that-Heury W. Moore , manager of tho Post Dis-
jhttchj-
and tho wiic of John W. Norton ,
manager of tho Graud opera house aud-Olympic theatre , left tho city together la-
night.t
. It appears the couple have-been unduly intimate for o\"er a-
year. . On Thursday evening Morton met-Moore and Mrs. Norton at the corner ol-
Lucas aud Jefferson avenuesaud, attempted-to shoot Mooie , but avus disarmed by a-
friend. . Mrs.Norton yesterday removed-her money and other valuables from the-safe deposit compauy , amounting to about-S20.00U , and at 10 o'clock last night she-and Mooro left the city in a carriage.-Moore
.has a most estimable Avife, Avho is-
now at Manitou Springs.-
The
.
Crop Outlook Satisfactor-y.Washington
.
dispatch : The weekly-crop Aveather bulletin says : The weather-for tho past week has been favorable for-all growing crops in the wheat , corn-and tobacco regions in the Ohio , upper-Mississippi and Missouri valleys , andTennessee. Heavy rains doubtless inter-fered
¬
with harvesting from Missouri-eastward to Virginia. Beports from the-interior of the middle states indicate-that rains have been very beneficial to-the growing crops.
Drowned in Lake Johanna.-
St..
. Paul (Minn. ) dispatch : One of-
the saddest cases of drowningthat has-boon recorded in this locality for a num-ber
¬
of years occurred at Lake Johanna-this afternoon. This lake is situated-about six miles from St. Paul and is-
often visited by numerous pleasure par-
ties¬
avIio desire to spend a quiet day and-enjoy tho fishing and rowing. Harry-C. . Tucker, clerk of tho Byan hotel , ac-
companied¬
by his Avife , his sister and-
father, AAont out to tho lako after dinner-to spend tho afternoon and evening.-Mr.
.. Tucker's father , and his 6ister , Mrs-
.Deisinger.
, are residents of Amsterdam ,
N. Y. , and came to St. Paul only a short-time ago on a visit to their relatiA'es-here. . After the party had arrived at-
tho hotel it Avas decided to go for a boat-ride, and Mrs. Tucker being rather tim-id
¬
, preferred to remain on the bank and-AAatch the party. Mr. Tucker took the-oars , and accompanied only by his fa-
ther¬
and sister started out OA'er the lake-.Thoy
.
had reached a point about a quar-ter
¬

.
York special : Dr. McGlynn was-
in a jovial humor last night , and with-
many a wink and grimace unfolded to-
the anti-poverty society , in the great-hall of Cooper union , a plan for bring-ing
¬
the landlords down to the plane up-
on¬
which the anti-poverty society de-
sires¬
to meet them. This was a combi-nation
¬
to refuse to pay rent. "Sup-pose
¬
, " said the doctor , "that five , ten ,
fifteen or twenty thousand tenants-should , on a given day , say to the land-lords
¬
, 'Wo will pay you no more ground-rent , bnt only a fair house-hire for your-hire , 'don't you think it Avould be a-
good while before the landlords could-evict them ? At first there must be a no-tice
¬
, then a trial in the district courts-before tenants could be turned out-.The
.district courts are limited in num-
ber.¬
. I think there are only about eight-of them. It might take a good many-months to expedite those processes. In-the meantime those tenants would bo-living in these houses rent free. The-victory would almost be won. " In this-strain the priest of the new crusade-talked nearly three quarters of an hour.-He
.said the scheme was legal and prac-
ticable.¬
. It might be well to try it on-some tenement house block and mildly-boycott the premises.-

Crop Outlook in Kansas-
.The.
Kansas Farmer presents reports-from special correspondents in seventy-counties of the state , sho\A'ing a verygoodcondition of things generally-among the farmers. Wheat is tho best-had since 1881. It is about all harvested-and saved. Heavy yields are reported-in many cases. The average will be-
fully equal to that of the best year-twentytwo bushels to the acre-
.The.
corn acreage is the largest ever-reported in any one year in the history-of Kansas , and the stand and condition-are reported good in every part of the-state. . With favorable weather there-will be 200,000,000 bushels to show for-the work of 1888. In new counties farm-ers
¬
are in a happy mood. Corn , millet-and grasses of nil kinds are growing vig-orously
¬
, and garden vegetables are inluxuriant groAvth. Alfalfa , sorghum ,rice corn nnd kaffir are in the best pos-sible
¬
condition. Bye is good every-where.
¬
. A few localities suffered fromdry weather and chinch bugs in earlyJune , and an occasional field of cornhas been attacked along the edges bybugs , but these exceptions are really-very few. The truth is , that Kansas , as-a whole, is in excellent condition , with-encouraging prospects all along the line.There is plenty of time yet to make upfor all shortages in the earlier part ofthe season.-

family in this city wero terrified and-
subjected to all sorts of annoyances-and mortifications by tho drunken-habits of one of its members. This in-
dividual was a parent , a man , avIio-
Avas old enough to command respect-if he had ever been founi} sober. His-children tried all sorts of plans to re-
form¬
him. His Avritten pledges to be-
temperate would make a thick vol-
ume¬
, and if the recording angel isn'l-tired of marking crosses against this-inebriate father's name for breaches-of verbal promises it is because angels-never get wearj *.
But a happy thought struck one ol-
the children a year or so ago. The-old man had ljeen born in Iceland and-some of his family still resided there.-The
.children held a council and re-
solved¬
to send the old man back to his-
native heaths. They raised enough-money to ond bjm home , and very-easily persuaded him To g

¬
, but saw to it that his way was paid-right through.-
They.
didn't buy him a return ticket.-His
.relations in Ireland are the-
poorest of the poor, and they couldn'tSend h im back. So the family over-here is happily released permanentlyfrom the shadow of a drunkard's dis-grace.

In Missouri , Kansas and Minnesota.-The
.Doctor had an enormous auditory. Ills-
subject was 'Sour Experiences , " and lib-text : "When Jesus therefore had received-the vinegar. " John xlx. 30. The sermon-Aras as follows :
The brigands of Jerusalem had done their-work. . It was almost sundown , and Jesus-was dying. Persons In crucifixion often-lingered on from day to day crylujr , beg-ging
¬
, cursing : hut Christ had been exhaust-ed
¬
by years of maltreatment. Flllowlcss ,poorly fed , flogced as beut over and tied to-
a low post. Ills hare back was Inflamed with-the scourges interstlced with pieces of-
lead and bones and now for whole hours,the Avelght of His body hung on delicate-tendons , aud according to custom , a violent-stroke under the armpits had becu given by-
the executioner. Dizzy , swooning , nauseated ,
feverish a world of agony Is compressed In-
the two Avords : "I thirst !" O skies ot-
Judca , let n dropot rain strike on Ills hum-luir
-tongue. O world , with rolling rivers ,
and Bparklliiir lakes, and ppraylug fountains ,giA'c Jesus something to drink. If there he-
any pity in earth , or heaven , or hell , let It-
no it be demonstrated In behalf of this royal-sufferer. . The wealthy women of Jerusalem-used to have a fund ot money with which-they provided wine for those people-avIio died In cruclllxlon a powerful-ophite to deaden the pain , hut Christ-would not take it. He wanted to die-eober , and so He refused the wine. But af-terwnrd
-they go to a cup of vinegar and soak-
a sponge In It and put It ou a stick of hyssop ,and then press It against the hot Ilps of-Christ. . You say that the wine was an an-aesthetic
¬
, and Intended to relieve or deaden-the pain. But lhe vinegar was an Insult. I-
am disposed to adopt the theory of the old-English commentators , who believed that in-
stead¬
of Its bt'ing-an opiate to soothe , It was-vinegar to insult. Malaga and Burgundy for-graud dukes and duchesses , and costly-wines from royal vals for bloated Imperials ;but stinging acids for a dj lug Christ. He-took the vinegar.-
In.
some lives the saccharine seems to pre-dominate.
¬
. Life is sunshine on a bank of-ilowers. . A thousand hands to clap approval.-In
.December or In January , looking across-
their table , they see all their family present.-Health
.rubicund. Skies llamboyant. Days-
resilient But in a great many cases there-are not so many smrars as acids. The an-no
¬
} auces , aud the vexations , and the disap-pointments
¬
of life overpower the successes.-There
.is agraA'el In almost every shoe. An-
Arabian legeud say that there was a worm-in Solomon's staff , gnawing Its strength-away ; aud there Is a weak spot Iu every-earthly supi ort that a man leans on. KingGeorge of Englaud torgot all the grandeurs-of ins throne because , one day in an inter-view
¬
, Beau Brmnmcll called him by his lirst-name, and addressed him as a servant , cry-ing
¬
: "George , ring the belli" Miss Langdou ,honored all the world over for her poetle-genius , Is so worried over the evil reports set-alio it regaidmg her, that she is found dead ,At 1th an emptybottle of prussic acid iu her-hand. . Goldsmith said that his life was a-
wretched being, and that all that-want and contempt could bring to-it had becu brought , and cries-out : "What , then , is there formidable In a-
jaiW" Corrcgglo's tine painting Is hung up-for a tavern sign. Hogarth cannot sell his-best painting except through a rallle. An-drew
¬
Delsart makes the great fresco In the-Church of the Aunuuciata , at Florence , and-gets for pay a sacc! of corn ; and there are-annoyances and vexations in high places as-
well as iu low places , showing that in a great-man }' lives the sours are greater than , the-sweets.. "When Jesus therefore had receiv-ed
¬
tlie vinegar. "It is absurd to think a man who has always-
been Avell can sympathize Avith those who-are sick or that one who has always been-honored can appreciate the sorrow of those-who are despised ; or tlfat oue who has been-born to a great fortuue can understand the-distress and the straits of those who are desti-tute.

. The fact that Christ Himself took the-vinegar makes Him able to sympathize today-and for ever Avith all those whose cup Is fill-
ed¬
with.sharp acids of this life. lie took vin-egarlIu
Iu the first place , there is the sourness of-betrayal. . The treachery of Judas hurt-Christ's feeling's more than all the friend-ship
¬
of His disciples did Him good. You have-had many friends ; but there was one friend-upon whom you put especial stress. You-feasted him and loaned him money. You be-
friended¬
him in the dark passes of life, when-he especially needed a friend. Afterward ,
he turned upon you , and he took advantage-of your former Intimacies. He wrote against-you. . He talked against you. He micro-scopized
-your faults. He flung contempt at-
you when you ought to have received noth-ing
¬
but gratitude. At first, you could not-sleep at nights. Then you went about with-a sense of having been 6tung. That diffi-culty
¬
avIU never be healed , for-though mutual friends may arbitrate in-
the matter until you shall"shake hands ,the old cordially will never come again. Now-I commend to all such the sympathy of a be-
trayed¬
Christ. Why , they sold Him for less-than our twenty dollars ! They all forsook-Him , and fled. They cut Him to the quick.-He
.drank that cup of betrayal to the dregs.-
He.
took the vinegar.-There is also the sournes3 of pain. There-
are some of 3-011 Avho have not seen a well-day for many years. Ej ICSepfiig out ofdraughts , and bv carefully studying dietetics ,you continue to this time ; but O , the head-aches
¬
, and the sideaches , and the backaches-and the heartaches which have been your-accompaniment all the way through ! Youhave struggled under a heavy mortgage of-physical disabilities ; and Instead of the pla-cidity
¬
that once characterized you , it is now-only Avith great effort that you keep awayfrom irritability and short retort. Difhcultics-of respiration , of digestion, of locomotionmake up the great obstacle Jn your life , and-you tug and sweat along the pathway, and-wonder when the exhaustion will end. Myfriends , the brightest crowns in heaven will-not be given to those who. In stirrups , dashed-to the cavalry charge , while the general ap-plauded
¬
, and the sound of clashing sabres-rang through the land ; but the brightest-crowns In heaven , I believe , will be given to-those Avho trudged on and amid chronic ail-ments
¬
which unnerved their strength , yet all-the time maintaining their faith in Go'd. It-Is comparatively easy to fight in a regiment-of a thousand men , charging up the parapets-to the sound of martial music ; but it is not-so easy to endure when no one but the nurse-and the doctor are the witnesses of the-Christian fortitude. Besides that you never-had any pain3 worse than Christ's. The sharp-ness
¬
that stung through His braic , through-His hands , through His feet , through His-heart , were as great as yours certainly. He-was as sick and as weary. Not a nerve , or a-
muscle , cr ligament escaped. All the pangs-of all the nations of all the ages compressed-into one sour cup. He took the vinegar !
There is also thesournes3 of poverty. Your-income doe3 not meet your outgoings , and-that always glyes an honest man anxiety.There Is no sign ol destitution about you-pleasant appearance , and a cheerful home for-von ; but God only knows what a time you-have had to manage your private finances-.Just
.as the bills run up, the wage3 fceera to-
run down. But you are not the only one'Avho-has not been paid for hard work. The great"-Wilkie sold his celebrated piece , "The Blind-Fiddler , " for fifty guineas , although after-wards
¬
it brought its thousands. The world-hangs in admiratiou over the sketch of-Gainsborough , yet that verssketch hung for-years in the shop windowbecause there was-not any purchaser. Oliver Goldsmith sold his-"Vicar of Wakefield" for a few pounds, In-
order to keep the bailiff out of the door ; and-the vast majorily of men in all occupations-and professions are not paid for their work.-You
.may say nothing , but life to a-ou Is a-
hard push ; and when you sit down with your-wife and talk over the expenses, you both-rise up discouraged. You abridge here, and-you abridge there , and you get things snugfor smooth sailings, and fo ! suddenly there Is-a large doctor's bill to pay , or you have lost-vour pocketbook , or some creditor has failed ,and you are thrown a-beam end. Well ,brother, you are in glorious company. Christ-owned not the house in Avhich he stopped , or-the colt ou which He rode , or the boat in-which he sailed. * ne lived In a borrowed-house ; He was burled in a borrowed-grave.. Exposed to all kinds-ot weather , yet He had only-one suit of clothes. He breakfasted in the-morning, and no one could possibly tell where-He could get anvthlng to eat before night.He would have been pronounced a financial-lallure. . He had to perform a miracle to get

Whatever else avo may escape, that Bjacid sponge will be pressed to our lips. I Is-ometimes have a curiosity to know how I-
will behave when I come to die. Whether I H-will be calm or excited whether I will be-
filled with reminiscence or with anticipation. H-Icannotsar. . But come to tho point, I mint B-and you must. Iu the six thousand years-that have passed , onlv two persons have got-Into the eternal world without death , and I-
do not suppose that God Is going to send a Hc-arriage for us with horses of flame , to draw H-us up the steeps of heaven ; but I suppose BJwe will have to go like the preceding gener-ations.

- Mglories have vanished fron our vision M-
we will wake up Into a realm which has only M-
one season , and that the season of everlast-Inglovc.

break out from my present associations. fl-
It is so chilly aud so damp to go down M-
the stairs of that vault. I don't want any- BB-thing drawn so tightly over my eyes.

There was a vessel that had been tossed on Ht-he seas for a great many weeks , and been BBBjdisabled , and the supply of water gave out , mBI-and the crew were dying ot thirst. After Jmi-many days , they saw a sail against the sky. pBBjThey signalled it. When the vessel came JBrn-earer, the people on the suffering ship cried ImmJto the captain of the other vessel : |"Send us some water. We are dying Hf-or lack of water." And the |captain on the vessel that was hailed re-sponded

You are In the mouth of the Amazon , and |there are scores of miles cf fresh water all-around about you , and hundreds of feet |deep. " And then they dropped their buckets plo-ver the side of the vessel , and brought up BSbBt-he clear, bright , fresh water, and put cut BSbt-he fire of their thirst. So I hail you to-day, mmmI-after a long and perilous vorage , thirsting as ]
you are for pardon , and thirsting for comfort , K-and thirsting for eternal life ; and I ask you-what Is the use of your going in that death-struck
- _state , while all around you is the deep _
clear, wide , sparkling flood of God's sympaBTmmIthetlc mercy. O , dip your buckets , and _drink , and live for ever. "Whosoever will , BBBBJlet him come and take of the water of life
BBBBJYet, my utterance Is almost choked at the Ht-
hought that there are people here who will _refuse this Divine sympathy ; and they will-try to fight their own battles , and drink their BmTmT |own vinegar , and carry their own burdens ; _and their life, instead of being a triumphal mmTmJmarch from victory to victory , will be a hobmBBBJbling-on from defeat to defeat , until they _make final surrender to retributive disaster.-O , I wish I could to day gather up in mine BBBa-rm3 all the woes of men and women all-their heart-aches all their disappointments HBBBJ
all their chagrins and just take them right mmTmTJ-to the feet of a sympathizing Jesu3. He took BBBBJthe vinegar. BBBBJ
Nana Sahib, after he had lost his last battle H-in India , fell back into the jungles of I her: BBBBJjungles so full of malaria that no BBB-mortal can live there. He carried BBBB-with him also a ruby of great lustre and BBBB-of great value. He died in those jungles ; his BmBB-body was never found , aud the ruby has never BBBB-yet been recovered. And I fear that to-day Jthere are some who will fall from this subject BBBBi-nto the sickening , killing jungles of their s 'n. mmBBJcarrying a gem of infinite value a priceless mmBBJsoul to be ' lost forever.
