L rT_; _ ^ Profanity in the Pulpit. t ! * The castml observer cannot have fail-' -ed to notice with what perfect freedom ^ :-at*d lack of reverence various ministers! j: of the gospel make use of the name of: tne JJeity in tneir sermons ana xn inoir is ordinary conversation. This practice grates upon the ears of men not even ^ professing Christianity. Can anybody ^ conceive of tlie necessity of mentioning the name of the Deity every twoj^ minutes during the entire sermon ? Is'o I minister because of his oftice is allowed Ul to take that holy name upon his lips! ^ except in reverential ,awe. Can any r< one conceive .of the^necessity of a min- n ister, whowishfes to speak of the earth, j speaking of it as.' "God Almighty's earth." Should an ordinary member in ! tt his conversation thus speak, would he ci not be sessioned ? It seems that some ai men when they get particularly sancti- tl monious, think they are at perfect free-' ,dom to use language that would in the j highest degree De reprenensioie 10 an i ],, "ordinary sinner." Recently a corres-iiij pondent of the Greenville Enterprise j II .expatiate^ .on .the crime of profane jJM swearing, and in that half column took ]r, occasion to repeat the name of the Deity i fx oftener than the wickedest man in j II Greenville would have done ordinarily '' in a day's conversation. Does not the ol too frequent sounding of this holy word i di familiarize the hearers with its associa- gt tion and deprive it of much of the sub-i^ limity and grandeur that should be|(M associated with the mention of the! 10 name of the author of our being ? f'' .??> ??

Was this the example of our Saviour on the cross? Did hiseuemiesask to be forgiven ? Did he not pray for them? Then ho\vfcuii-|y( christian-like to bear malice or ill-will (^j, to au unending brother, koine men do wi this. and yet pruv to be "forgiven us j I' they forgive others wlio trespass against i k" us."

' | for The carrying of deadly weapons is jn spoken of as, a grcut evil in Chicago, J leading to almost daily homicides. It is a great evil everywhere. We have it in ! " South Carolina and we doubt not tha> the same evil exists, in a jrreater or less degree in every State.

The firm express themselves thereon in their circular as follows : Sincc our last, English ami continentil wheat market have experienced a further depreciation of values, and at he close the tendency was still down. Jur market responded temporarily to Jiesc unfavorable auvices, nut mc com, in reasonable weather that prevailed dung the week that has revived the apprehensions felt for the next crop, and speculative orders have been suflicicntto . minteract unfavorable legitimate tenleneies.

Where there Is one bad field of grain there are live .rood, but of the latter nothing is said, while the one bad is advertised and enlarged on. Seeding has progressed satisfactorily and next week we will see its omiiletion. Along the lake shore there is bul little* seeding done, fanning opcritions having been delayed by the eold riori beast winds, but this coin prises only i very small portion of the wheat growing sections. As an illustration of the reliability of crop rumors we point to >ne report of the total destruction of the Michigan corn crop.
