"I^re..that self-forgetful gives Sows surprise of ripened sheaves, Late or soon its own receives." ~-~Jokn Greenlea/ W&?tier ia The Independent. .Dry Weather Christians. There is a healthy Christian senti? ment* LODQBig throng the novel, "The O^ing of a Chestnut Burr," H toy Eoe* and some of the argu? ments are beyond dispute. We quote one which contains a palpable hit at dry weather Christians, and it is a ~ cKncher;: ^ :A Sabbath morning dawned dim and encertain, and by the time they had : gathered at the breakfast table, .a I* northeast rainstorm had set in with a driving gale. "I- suppose you will go to .church *iu spent' this morning, as Mr. $og gar would say," said Gregory, ad? dressing Annie. ^'If I were cn the- sick list I should, bat I have no such excuse." _ "You seriously do not mean to ride two. miles ra such a storm as tbis?"/\ . "No, not seriously, but very cheer v- fully and gladly." ? "I do not think it is required of you, Miss Walton. Even your Bible states, *i will have mercy and not sacrifice.'" "The 'sacrifice' in my case would be in staying at home. I like to be out in a storm* and have plenty of warm blood to resist its chilling ef? fects. But even were it otherwise, what hardship is there ia wrapping up in ?waterproof and riding a few miles ta a comfortable church? J shall come back with a grand appe? tite and a double zest for the wood Ste." * . "But it is not fair on the poor horses. They have no waterproofs or wood ?res.'' '4? think I am not indifferent to the comfort -of dumb animale, and though 1 curive a-good deal, father can tell you i am not a *whip.' Of all shams, the most transparent is this tender? ness fur; one's steif and the horses on Sundays Ilka*: often out in stormy weatherduring the week, and meet plenty of people ob the road. The *v-* iarmei^drive to the village on rainy days, because they can neither plow, sow nor reap. But even on a cloudy ? Sabbath, with the faintest prospect of rarn^ there is but one text in the Bible for them : 'A righteous man regard V eth the life of his beast' People at? tend parties, the opera, and places of amusement, no matter now bad the night. It is a miserable pretence to say that the weather keeps the major? ity at home from church. It is only an excuse. I should have a great * deal more, respect for them if they would say frank'y,4 We would rather .sleep, read a novel, dawdle aronud en deshabille and gossip.' Half the time when they say it's too stormy to venture out (oh, the heroism of our Christian vage!) they should go aud thank God for the rain that is provid? ing food'for them and theirs." **On Bartli as It is in Heaven.5' Josepha was not in a very good humor that Sunday, though it was her birthday, her tenth birthday. In tlie first .place, a Sunday birth? day was a dull sort of a thing, she thought; and then baby Fritz had been so sick that mamma had not had a chance to get any little present ready for her.. It is true, that was only put off-the present was to come ; but ' still Josepha felt ont of sorts. And when mamma called her to get her Bible verses, she broke info a regular pout, and grumbled out that it was a hard case she couldn't have any fun at ali on her birthday, not even a holday from Bible verses. Mamma at once shut the' Bible and laid it on the sable. "I can't let you learn your verses while you are in a bad humor, daugh? ter," she said, "so I will preach you a little sermon instead "Once there was a little boy who used to beg his father'every morning to keep him away from the tjees ; but instead of helping his father to keep him, he went straight out and played with.their hives, and of course they stung him again." "Well, what next?" asked the little listener. "That's all," said mamma. "All ! Why, f don't call that a sermon." "Ye?, it is a sermon," answered mamma, "bot it is a short one, and it has my little daughter for a text." "Now, mamma, you know I never do anything like that!" exclaimed Josepha. "I think I can sliow you that you do something very much like that every morning. When you are re? peating the Lord's Prayer, what do you say after 'Thy kingdom comeT" '"Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven/" repeated the little - girl briskly. "That is, you ask God to make you1 do his will just as the angels dc it. How do you suppose the angels - do God's will?" "I don't know," said her listener slowly. "Of course we don't exactly, but ol some things we may feel confident ; I am sure they do* it promptly ; I am sore they do it cheerfully ; I am sure they do it perfectly." ''Tbe angels know just what God's will is, but I ?on't," answered Joj* ?ha, who felt as if she needed some bow to defend herself. Her mother pointed to an illumiti jated text hanging on the nursery wall : "Children, obey your parents." There was a long, quiet time then, in which' mamma drew her little girl to her knee and kissed her ten? derly. - "I won't give you any verses to get to-day," she said gently, "but I give you this little sermon to 'learn by heart/ Every time you say i 'Thy will be done on earth as it is in heav? en/ remember that you are asking God to make you do what you are told-promptly, cheerfully, perfectly. And tien you must ask the Lord to answer this prayer." A Child's Morning Prayer. ibout ten years ago there was a little girl, six or seven years old, so? journing for a time in a - city apart from her parents. She was a regular attendant at the Sabbath-school, and one day she told her teacher that she wished' to have a conversation with the minister. He w?6 informed of the fact and called upon the child, wheu she-told him to fiad her a short and appropriate morning prayer. She said that the prayer, "Now I lay me down to sleep," etc., did for the even? ing, but she wanted one lise it for the morning. The minister promised to gratify her request aud took hie. leave. A few days after, and before he had ful? filled his promise, the little one was stricken with scarlet- fever, and al? though the minister called upon her, she died without seeing him. f?e theu set about the task, and decided to publish the facts and call for original prayers suitable for the morning. 'IJe case was published in one or two leading papers, and taken up by others, spread ali over this country and parts of Eugland. In response, hundreds bf prayers were sent in, and it was che intention of the min? ister to publish a little book contain? ing a full account of the case and all the prayers, but it has uever been done, or had not been when the writer met him. The best one of the whole collection is giveri^below, and may fill a want that has been felt by many parents and children : And now 1 rise and see the light, I pray the Lord, to lead me right ; And all I do, and think, and say, " I pray the Lord to guide my way. -New York Observer. Insolence of the Liquor Tra?St?. There is one "phase of the liquor question to which attention cannot be too frequently called. While demand? ing protection from the law, it is per? petually evading *aud breaking the law. It ships goods abroad to avoid the payment of taxation, and sells secretly to evade license fees and po? lice inspection. It bands itself to? gether to dispute tue execution and constitutionality of offensive legisla? tion, and shirks its share of the bur? dens which fall on legitimate traffic. More than great corporations, even, does it scrutinize candidates and em? ploy legislative attorneys. No evi? dence can convince its agents of the social evils of which it is the parent, or raise them to the comprehension pf what society would bewere the trafile stamped out. It is manifest that so? ciety endures more from tlie liquor domiuatiou than from any other tyr? anny. It is manifest that tlie mass of temperance men must be either hopeless of speedy improvement or in secret sympathy with tlie continu? ance of the trafic under the sanction of the law. How else can the facts which appear be interpreted ? How can the advance and retreats, the spasmodic action and the helpless re? actions be accounted for? When will the day come when this insolent enemy , of all good will, like human bondage, be a thing of the past ? And when will the Church-the whole Church-be called to lead, and not to follow, public opinion, help to put behind bars or in criminal secrecy those whose avarice blinds them tb the woes of a wronged humanity ? If any think these indignant sentences too strong, let them read again Hie accounts of liquor sellers agreeing in several States to defy the law until the question of constitutionality eau be settled. Good citizenship keeps j the law until repealed. Ent good citi ! zenship and the liquor traffic never go j together.-Soulliern Christian Advo? cate. Mr. Pelzer, of Charleston, has erect? ed a new church at Peizer Cotton Man? ufactory, situated in Anderdon county, near the Greenville line. The factory was named in Louor of Mr? Pelzer. The church edifice cost ?5.000, and has 2> seating capacity of about 600. It will be used by the operatives of the factory as a place of religious worship. We suppose the different denominations will occupy it, as in Piedmont and other large factory towns. ?gMPgjBan mm roawai--va"-" ?amanse- TI TESTIFIES.
