What Others Say. "It is a curious fact that we are establishing a code of conduct in I lie political arena that is not only diilerent from but antagonistic to that of the moral rule which governs the individual in his private transactions, 'l'he man who would resent as an insult tiie proposition even to commit a swindle or aid in a theft will swing his hat with cheers over a succe.-sful criminality ot his party. The average member ot Congress will tell you frankly, without thinking, that it cost him not less than five thousand dollars to secure his seat. That same member would knock you down for intimating that he had the *-8 > I." 1. til.I Ulllllt. JiKe sum, ooiameu hh.miBi. . ...... nrocess, in his dwelling or business. When, for example, the heaviest manufacturer of agricultural implements in Ohio called his workmen togethei previous to the late election and said, "My men, I have no wish to influence your votes, but if 0 rover Cleveland is elected President, no more smoke wili issue from those chimneys," he was applauded by his party for having done a clever thing. That same man, when charged subsequently with putting his company's money in a rascally wheat deal, that sent tlje president of a bank to the penitentiary, resented the charge with the indignation of an honest man. Aud'yet the moral turpitude of the two transactions is greatly in favor of the Fidelity Hank." The Christian calls attention to a suggestive fact: "Has any noticed how few hymns are quoted in these days? One minister has said that about the entire body of Christian truth with wnieli his people were acquainted, was contained in the hymnbook. The hymns they sung had fastened themselves on their minds. But there is a recent and large class ol hymns which are scarcely ever quoted ; indeed they are hardly remembered; for there is little or* nothing in " '>* niintu KM il'll f V mem iu rciuciiiwi wi jingles, vain repetitions, rattling choruses, and jumbled fugues may tickle the ear and please the crowd, but when one settles down to read them iu cold, plain, simple English, the interest felt In them vanishes, and they appeal stale and stupid, fiat aud unprofitable.

"?A young lady friend wishes the new niTnigter A^ould adopt "Hhuus off" a> a motto, fie may carry it ouUia-Car as he pleases; altttleforiuajity in .sorinl intercourse is not at all objectionable. Some husbands do not like their wives addressed by their Christian names, some girls do not like it, aud almost none of them like to be touched unnecessarily on elbows, shoulders, or wrists, or nudged by persons of the other se.\ who are not related to them.

We do really think that the Church Js suffering more than she herself may he aware of suffering, from a plague of organizations ? organizations that swarm within her own great and allsufficient organization, and prey upon her proper life. There are some people who seem incapable of going about any charitable or religious work in a quiet and informal manner. For every thing they attempt they must have a "chairman" and a "secretary" and machinery of rules and committees; and tuere must be a periodica! blaie ot gj reports, which are often nothing better than a form of boasting.

Some men seem to think that they have a special mission to rebuke sin and point out faults. They never sec the bright side of life, nor of anything in the world. Their altitude with rel erence to their neighbors and the Church leads them to exaggerate the evil, and they bccomc unreliable in judgment and speech. Such men thiuk they are following out their convictions, when they are only following out their prejudices. They have such a horror of moral cowardice that they become social nuisances.

Moral suicide lies that way. The National "1'louk."---We printed some opinions last week in icgard to the choice of a national flower. Here is a little story which shows thai one man voted for a white "Hour'' which was neither oalla nor water lily, and more useful than ornamental: A grocer not long ago heard some o! his customers talking on tliis subject. Now he had a particular kind of jlmtr for sale called the Haxall brand, ami when he was asked what he thought would be the best llower for the nation to adopt, lie said : "Why, that Haxall brand <s way ahead of every thing else, and is the only kind that's lit to be the national flour." One of the most common mistakes made in putting up new belts is in getting them entirely too tiyht. The man knows that new belts stretch a good deal for a time after being put into use, and unless made very ti^ht at first soon require taking up: so he makes them as tight as they can be made to go on the pulleys, regardless of the fact that t? is excessive tension pulls the belt into short crooks, destroys its elasticity, iniures the ma cliine on which ft runs, and is very wasteful of power. - -? ??

Almost every day brings with ii incidents continuing the neces-ity oi your existence, and vindicating the wisdom of disseminating the principles upon which thai existence is based, in order to develop and bring out a higher order, ami a better type of manhood, and Christian eivili/.ation. Only the other dnv in Barnwell occurred an incident as black, brutal and diabolical as anything could well be, even beyond the borders of Christen dom, and if any tiling should impress itself upon the better class of citizens among us, it should he the importance of giving growth and force to the sentiments vindicated year after year in the columns of the Ni:ic;iilion, "i'eace , on earth and good will toward men." ' If Christ had sway among us, and i the principles of the ISKiciinou controlled the actions of man, we would not have men murdered, and then as a 1 sequel to that, men led out l?y brutal , mobs and lynched under the sable ; mantle of night. Christ's kingdom is a kingdom oi light, and contends for peace on earth lirsl last and all time. .Some mclhoii must be adopted to realize tins end. Arbitration would.bring to the world . a system of law and government, i: ? once made a law, which would do more to lessen crime, lessen expense, , and vindicate justice, than any thing ' that could be done. It would greatly lessen the temptation felt by most law- ; yens, to play sharp tricks, and win if ' they can. < We would soon have less lawyers, Ifcss expensive court, less dissatisfaction after tlie adjournment of court, and less lynch law. O that the sentiment of the Xnuiiiioit could be given more force, ami have a greater circulation among men, and thereby make Christ's kingdom the dominant kingdom of lliis world. It is the need of our times, and too much emphasis cannot be given to it, as auaUJjuportant demand. Cine of the noblest and ne.st utterances in \V. W. 'Wadsworth's new book, "The Coming Kingdom," i> when he says, Christ's "plan and work for Israel, were pre-eminently spiritual, and came in direct conflict with I he prevalent view. The maintenance of this Truth to the end cost him His life. Christ be. fore Pilate saying, 'My kingdom is not of this world, for then would my servants fight,' shows conclusively that llis conception of the universal reign 01 peace, wuii iiiv wnue-wnigi'ii inMf hoveling above its spotless banners, could never have been born of the spirit of the times, when the eagle with outspread talons, ready to devour, stood as a royal emblem ot the dominating power of the world."
