Extracts from Christian Neighbor Keep in Mind*That Jesus Christ is now the King of kings and Lord of lords, having all power in heaven and in earth. That having bought, by his death, the right to supreme and universal authority he instituted first, the administration of gracc?the gospel dispensation?during which he pardons all who repent and believe and thus choose him to "rule over theui," and thus become his "willing people"? "the household of faith." That at the close of the reign of erace Jesus Chriit will institute the dispensation of judgment which he will "send forth to victory"?even the accomplishment in the "day of his power" that which his enemies "quick and dead" would not consent for him to do under the reign of grace, viz: that "every knee should bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father." That Jesus Christ must reign until all rule, and authority and all power shall be put down?fulfilling the ceremony of coronation by the Father, "Sit Thou ou my right hand until I make thine enemies thy footstool." That up to the time of the coronation the Father held the reins of government, but at that time he committed all authority and judgment to the Son who thereby became the "One Law giver" to all the subjects of his kingdom whether willing or disobedient. That in the presence of Moses and Elijah, (the representation of the law ? and the prophets) on the mount of transfiguration, a voice out of the overshadowing cloud said to the dis ciples, This is my well beloved Son; hear ye him. Thus signifying that the teaching of the Son should supersede that of Moses and the prophets in all points of deference. As Moses and Elijah vanished at the declaration and command leaving the Son and the disciples alone, so should vanish all teaching in the law and the prophets not in accordance with the teaching of the Son of God, "the blessed and only Potentate," the only Savior, the only Judge, before whose judgment seat "we shall all stand" that every one may "give account of himself for "the deeds done in the body." That citizenship in Christiandom involves an accountability which can not be transferred or evaded. That if in the presence of Moses and Elijah the command was given to feoor the Son, how much more should the subjects of Christ's kingdom hear him in the presence of earthly kings and rulers who themselves are accountable to their King? Now let all subjects of Him who has all power in heaven and earth search the Christian Scriptures and learn what their King and Judge says on war? the sum of all villainies. Shallow Criticism. Knowledge and speeoh are not always proportioned to each other. Speech is often in an inverse ratio rt b-nnn-lorlorp?hp snfiflketh what 'V .v?e~ -r be knoweth not. This truth has been recently impressed upon the mind by an item in the advertising columns of a certain publisher. A book, a sort of religio-scientific treatise, we judge, is advertised, and the opinions of various critics are quoted. Among these we select two. One is written by a celebrated man, the editor of a no less celebrated religious weekly; the other is by the book-reviewer of a well known secular daily, and goes out as editorial opinion, or with at least a tacit approval. The first writer, judging from his pursuits, his vocation, his life, would be regarded as better acquainted with the matter under review than the other; the former considers the book the product of profound thought, his own reading confirms many statements made by the author, yet he fails to reach with him the same conclusions. The second reviewer, who by the same means, his occupation, his thoroughly worldly life, his inferred habits of thought, we would deem to be comparatively unversed in matters pertaining to spiritual life,?this critic condemns the book under review as weak, shallow, preteutious, the conclusions as improbable, impossible, ridiculous. Compare the men, compare the opinions. We can judge here only by appearances, and appearances are certainly against our second reviewer. How can one immersed in fashionable life, an attendant upon fashionable amusements, be considered as conversant with J repentance, faith, forgiveness?spiritual life? The less the knowledge the more dogmatic the opinion; the deeper the mystery the more ready are some to solve it. Let us beware how we receive opinions, how we form our beliefs, of speech without knowledge. Price of Church Papers. The Central Mf.thodist of July 7 contains some souud busiuess ideas on' the price of Church papers, showing the unreasonableness of the clumor for a reduction in price. If the people had a proper appreci. tion of religious papers they would not think the price of any that we see too high. The Central Methodist is $2.00 a year and is worth every cent of it and more too. Most, if not all Methodist church a>ers we see, charge the preachers f price. The justice and equity of this difference between lay and clerical subscribers seems to us questionable, but as this is a matter for those , concerned we forbear any words of criticism, but would state that an experience and observation of fifteen years settled us down [five years ago,] to this: The same price to every subscriber, whether preacher or layman. When we now send a paper free, for six or twelve months, to any one It is to some of the many poor who are not able to pay for it.. -N , * " * Too Much "MdlliiK." More than once the Christian Neighbor has protested against so crowding the preachers with serving "tables" of various kinds as to leave them little time for study when at home and less time for attending to the spiritual welfare of their members in pastoral attention and when assembled at the house of worship. The following from Zioii's Herald suggested reference again to this evil that will.be attended, South or North, with the same result: One of the leading Northern dailies not a great while ago took the ground that Methodism was falling behind other representative denominations in the large cities. The editor of Zion's Herald admits the truth of the allegation, and accounts for it by saying the Methodist pulpit is inferior to that of the other churches. He says that the Methodist preachers are overwhelmed with work, and are consequently unable to prepare for the pulpit. The demand for pastocal visiting and this thing of saddling all sorts of church work upon the preachers are bearing their legitimate fruit. Against Cruelty to Brutes. President Johnson of the Society for [tho Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, has had Jefferson Bond of fountain Inn placed under bond not to work for the next two weeks his deIcrenit mule, which he was driving. William Wilson, Thomas Burrings, John Lawrence and Edward Meeters, residents of the County, were also required to give better treatment to their 1 -? 1- rt j i Ir worn annuals.?&nierprisc anu iuuuutaineer. Greenville is thus honored above some other towns in the State not excepting Columbia. "When one thinks of only some of the many occasions, which claim the attention of different classes of the people it is no surprise that there is so little permanent thrift, and reliable morality in tbe country, specially payment of debts, such as Conventions, Reunions, Commencements, Concerts, Secret Societies, Associations, Fairs, Clubs, Celebrations, Barbecues, Registrations, Elections, Suppers, Parades, Entertainments, Excursions, Encampments, Experiments, Base ball, Heel balls, Picnics, Regattas. Courts, Sale days, &c., &c. Some few of these occasions are necessary and proper but most of them are expensive and demoralizing, and the reports of them in the newspapers have a like tendency with those who have taste and patience to read the ornate and eulogistic froth and trash. Even Christians who esteem it a privilege to read the Scriptures, to pray in secret, in the assembled household, and to till their place in the social and public worship of God, have need to watch and pray lest they also be led away with errors and follies of the wicked?to keep themselves uuspotted from the world. One of the most remarkable of modern camp-meeetings is that held by the German Methodists at Lakeside, Ohio. It is year by year a scene of wonderful spiritual power. It is after the old style. One year not long since it was said that every unconverted person in attendance had been saved. The people bring them their children and friends for many miles for the specific purpose of having them converted, Similar anxiety and consecration and faith on the part of Englishspeaking Christians would produce ii tut? same niuu ui icsuno. For Cash great bargains in printing material can be had by personal application at the office of the Christian Neighbor, Columbia, S. C. Feeding Fowls in TTinter. It requires time to feed fowls properly. If when hungry they are given whole grain in quantity their greediness makes them swallow it too rapidly. This especially true of large grain, like corn. Bather than feed them shelled corn by tbe handful we should give it to them on the ear in a place where there is plenty of straw, and let them peck it on. Some corn might be lost, but not much, and it is more than made good by this exertion the fowls will get in feeding themselves. Tea and Coffee Yersus Nerves. Tea and coffee I have practically given up. I found they made me nervous, fidgety, anxious, low spirited, and took some of my energy away. Tea made me tremble, gave me brilliant but false ideas, and confused both speech and writing. Coffeegriped me, gave me colic and took my memory away for hours; sol have given both up. Since doing so I have lost my writer's cramp from which I suffered a little.?T. R. Allinson in London Times and Echo. Man, without the protection of a superior being, is secure of nothing that he enjoys, and uncertain of everything that he hopes for. If men had only temptations to great sins, they would always be good ; but the daily fight with little ones accustoms them to defeat. Many a man thinks admirably who has a poor utterance, while others have a charming manner of speech, but their thoughts are trifling. The one who will be found in trial capable of great acts of love is ever the one who is always doing considerate small ones, The habit of praying at a certain time no more necessitates merely for mal prayer than previous silence necessitates spiritual prayer. When the tongue puts itself at ease t puts everything else under contraint. "The disposition to 'judge and condemn' others grow out of the habit of self-righteousness. Look within, and see if it is not so!" Those that place their hope in another world have in a great measure conquered dread of death-and unreasonable love of life. Little local noises deaden the loudest distant ones; so it is that this world shuts out from the ears of men the voice of Almighty God. Sins of commission are the usual punishment for sins of omission. He that leaves a duty may well fear that he will be left to commit a crime. Thingsare unbearable, just until we have them to bear. Their possibility comes with them ; for we are not the roots of our own being. Progress in holiness, the only progress known to the Bible, is the only progress ignored by the modern disciples of progress. "War, the greatest curse of mankind, will never cease so long as women and clergymen continue to approve and encourage it." Say nothing you would not like God to hear. Live not in words, but mind the power of words. Whatever your dislike in another take care to correct in yourself. Thoughtfulnesss for others is a beautiful trait of character. An effort made for the happiness of others, lifts us above ourselves. Ability involves responsibility. Power, to its last particle, is duty. Poverty may excuse a shabby coat, but it is no excuse for shabby morals. Kindness has converted more sinners than either zeal, eloquence or learning. As time passes, and the vicissitudes of life try us, we find that nothing can separate us from the love of God. Whatever becomes of my body or my estate, I will ever labor to find somewhat added to the stature of my soul. If we strive to become what we strive to appear, manners may often be rendered useful guides to the }>erformance of our duties. There is nothing'which contributes more to the sweetness of life than friendship; there is nothing which disturbs our repose more than friends, if we have not the discernment to hoose them well.
