: I * A PREACHER'S EXPERIENCE. '*
"Three months ago, I took a violent
cold which resulted in an attack
of acute bronchitis. I put myself
under medical treatment, and at the
end of two months was no better.
I found it very difficult to preach,
|3\ and concluded to try Ayer's Cherry
1 Pectoral. The first bottle gave me
great relief; the second, -w hich I am
now taking, has relieved me almost
entirely of all unpleasant symptoms,
and I feel sure that one or two bottles
more will effect a permanent
cure. To all ministers suffering from
throat troubles, I reeommend Ayer's

A Blind Jfcaa's DuaL
It is doubtful if any theatre ever
offered such volumes of romatic incident
as the deck of the old-timo
Mississippi steamer. In the old days
before railroads traversed the continent
in every direction, and the west
was a wilderness, New Orleans was
the Mecca of travelers, and the fleet
^ wave-born palaces of the inland sea
carried thousands of pleasure-seekers
to the south. It was then that life
was a carousal, and men and women
gave themselves up to most lavish
eninvmenfs was ft custom.
and courage an instinct. Men were
as prone to brawls as the sparks to
fly upwards. Conspicious among the
J fierce and rollicking habitues of the
steamers was Captain West, a noted
duelist. One day he engaged in a
controversy with a gentleman whom
I he met on deck, whom he accused of
stariDg at him impertinently.
"Why do you look at me so intently?"
demanded the captain.
"I was not looking at you," calmly
! replied the stranger, his ejes meanwhile
fixed in a stony glare upon the
duelist's face. .
"But you are, sir!"
"I am not."
The captain turned away, but a
short time afterward he felt those
stony eyes were again upon him and
following all his movements with
pitiless ferocity. ft became inex
pressibly annoying, and the captain
at last determined to make an end of
< *
(it. Stepping up to the stranger, he
inquired, with suppressed passion:
"Can you fight as well as look?"
"Perhaps so. I never tried it.
Place me, however, in position, and
|k I will do my best"
"The singular conduct of the stranger
had by this time attracted universal
attention, and whispered conferences
regarding his remarkable
appearance agitated lit tie groups of
persons all over the boat In a short
time, however, the vessel rounded to
at a landing for wood, and then the
parties to the impromptu duel went
ashore. The stranger was led off by
a Negro servant, who seemingly
^ - picked his way. Indeed, from the
intense interest he was manifesting
in the encounter, the colored servant
was apparently more deeply interested
in the affair than his master.
But the time allotted for preliminries
I was brief, and the men were speedild
put in position, and pistols placed
in their hands.
(The word was given, and two
ringing reports flashed out on the
Caotain West fell pierced to
f the heart. The stranger stood erect,
calm and dignified. Hig second
rushed up to him:
"Are you hurt, sir?''
"No; how is it with my antagonist?"
"Can't you see? You have hilled
| him."
"No; I am unable to see."
"Ytu can't see?"
"No; I am blind."
And he was. The tragedy was a
nine-day's wonder, and all sorts of
rumors were rife as to the identity of
the fatal stranger. But who he was
t and whither ho went was a mysteiy
Dever solved. The circumstance
went to make up an incident in the
^ dark and bloody memories which
made famous the olden time.

Protracted Meeting. froi

m.
To the Editor of the Dispatch. Acl
I take great pleasure in writing sioi
about our protracted meeting at pre
| Union church. It began on the 9th rig
: of August aDd lasted until the 17tb. dor
i It seemed that our people came at r
! the very beginning of the meeting Mr
I with full purpose of heart to accom- Qu
! plish that great end of baviDg a R?1
blessing richly poured out upon Gei
J them. They hungered and thirsted sue
I after a blessing, and in the word of sav
| God we have the promise that he Re'
! that hurgereth after righteousness dot
| shall be filled; thar.kGod! we were 1
| filled with the grace of God in our Mr
souls. Give me the religion that par
will go down into the heait and a< r
purge it of all hatred, malice, envy, fro]
and evil doiDg; and then we will tba
' - i 0 r
j take pleasure in working ior desus | p ,
I and the church. fr01
i I fear one of the greatest draw urn
backs in the church today is, there
i is too much religion in the head and vic<
! not enough in the heart. I pray Xhi
| that the Lord may give us all more tak
i heartfelt religion. A religion not pre
j only to live by but such a one as Jer
| will abundantly bless us at the try- wir
j ing hour of death. 1
