In passing through this lifo ono is ikoly to hoar many things that aro not dways, and under all circumstances, pleasant to hoar, neither aro they always true. Hut dirim?an people should have their hearts and their tongues so conse crated to tho Lord Jesus Christ that whatever they say may do good, and good only. Alas, that such is not always Ibo caso, even with many people, who daim to bo living on a plain of sinless perfection ! I do not wish to censure anybody; neither do I write this for rovongc, for "Vongoanco is of God"; Ho will repay, md Ho will also adjust all wrongs. Hut I do feel that justico lo tho causo of L'hrist, to my own denomination and to Christian friends of other denominations calls upon mo to emphatically contra lict some public assertions recently mado iiy sonio members of tho so-called "holi ness movomont." A few nights ago I, in company with ionic friends, wont to a tent mooting. Duo of their members, (I suppose a tiroaohor), in testifying, gavo his reason for leaving tho Baptist and Methodist, ?burches. Ho said that bo left tho Bap tist church because Jesus Christ, had let it; that be went out right aftor JOSHS. Ile also said that bo wont into tho Meth odist church in search of Christ, hut had failed to lind Him there. Probably ho was mistaken in tho person who wont mt, and on failing to lind tho ono who lind left t he Baptist church, decided that losus was not in tho Methodist church Mthor. If not mistaken, ho must havo icon following, like Peter, "afar off." Otherwise ho would havo known whether l?sus was in tho Methodist church or not without going in. Ile, with others >f bis persuasion, doubtless knows that tho church, under whatever mimo, is an irgatilfecd band of baptized heliovors in the Lord Jesus Christ, and (hat if, as ho claimed, Jesus bas left tho above named churches, then Ho bas left us alone. A leplorablo condition indeed! Hui from Hebrews 13:5 wo learn that the Lord, in speaking to Christians, bas laid, "1 will novcr leave theo nor forsake thee." Thank God for that little word 'never," which means at no timo. From this 1 conclude that if Jesus bas over noon in tho Baptist or Methodist churches (nu indisputable fact, and ono which this mm admits to lie true, for Ho could not lave gone out of them bad Ho not boon n them), Ho is still in them to-day and will remain in them throughout all ages to come; otherwise His assertion referred to above would bo false-a thing impos able with God. As bo took his seat somo ono began tinging tho song, "My Sins aro all Takon Away." Almost every person under tho tent seemed to engage in singing this ueautiful song. When the singing ceased .ve worO at once told that many of us tad been lying to (tod in singing this mug. of course thoy boliovod f it all ivh.) woro not members of tho-', band ,vero guilty of this infamous charge, while a great many. If not all of thoso vliO do not believe lil a state, of sinless lorfeotion hero on earth, have, with .(pially as MUK.li propriety, tho samo lollof concerning thom. lt is vory probablo, if not absolutely rue, that such language bas never and viii never bo a means of drawing souls o Christ. It rather bas a tondonoy to hive them away, and is, therefore, ivrong. Within a few minutes another song ?va? suggested by their ministers, anil with tito suggestion, ho stated, that ivorybody, both saint and sinner, could truthfully sing this song This latter long was tho old familiar hymn contain ng tho wolds: "Ho promised never to eave me, never to loavo mo alone." This promise is to Christians, Of course, nut ho claimed it to be applicable to all classes, saying emphatically that Jesus would novcr leave even a sinner. I would suggest that he tako a vnca ion and read bis Hilde, especially snob passages as Matthew 12:31, Mark 8{20, 30, ICphcsians 4:10, Hebrews 12:17 and Ocne ds 0:3. Hy SO doing he will learn that ibero is au unpardonable sin; that God's ?plrit will not always strive with man, nut that thoro may come a limo when Jesus will cease to knock at tho sinner's uart and lake his everlasting i" ht, caving him lost, lost, lost, for all mo md eternity ! By spending a few moments each day ii tho study of these and other similar passages bo will learn that it is false to daim that Jesus will never leavo a sin ner. If ho fully believes what ho claimed bat night, vi/.: "That Jesus will never cave, oven a td ri nor," then I suggest that bo himself stop singing tho last named song lest ho bo found guilty of tho sumo accusation so indignantly thrust at us. A man who is in tho habit of taking refuge in a glass house should bo vory careful not to throw a steno calculated to arouse a righteous indignation. (Kpho dans4:20.) Bin i cf Ugo might get broken.

C.-?ontlomon: As a good deal has recently appeared in print re garding tho consumption of sugar in this country, tho various sources, from which it is obtained, the amount of duty paid thereon, otc, the following facts and ligures will, wo believe, bo of interest to your rendors: Tho total consumption of sugar in tho United States last, year was 2,210,847 tons, and based on the average increase of 0.34 por cent during tho past Itt years, tho consumption this year should bo 2,300,585 tons. Of this quantity 1,000,000 tons in round ligures will como from Anim nan s?nicos, say Louisiana hoing able tr produce 350,000 tons, United States beet factories 150,000, Hawaii 350,000 and Porto Rico 150,000, all being froo of duty, leaving 1,300,585 toils to como from other s?nicos and on which j duty is paid. Thoavorago duty assessed ! is $3(1 por ton, or a total of $48,081,000. Tho price of all tho sugar consumed, however, being enhanced to tho extent, of tho duty of $30 por ton or a total of $81,081,000, it is evident that $30,000,000 additional is paid by tho people, in order to pr?vido tho Ooverntnont with $10,000, 000 for rovonue, of which tho Govern ment is not now in need. If tho duty is taken olT Cuba sugar tho bonoflt of $85, 000,000 goes to tho people. Oh October 8th tho quotation for Cuba Centrifugal Sugar 00? tost, froo on board Cuba, was LOO por pound, duty on samo amounis to 1.085, equivalent to 80 por cent advalorom.

"Ho will brook no intor feronco from the cotorio of politicians in Washington who imagino thoy aro tho power behind tho throne Of course, it will be unfortunate for tho Ropublicau party when tho Prosidont and these leaders fall out. "I holiovo tho Prosidont was sincoro when ho made tho statement that ho would follow tho policlos of his prede cessor. Mr. Roosovolt will make an honest President. "1 do not holiovo Prosidont Roosovolt will appoint an unworthy manto ofllco. His action in making Governor Jones, of Alabama, a Fcdoral J migo, shows that ho is ready to appoint a clean Democrat in preference to an unworthy Republi can." Regarding prospectivo legislation at tho coming session of Congress Senator Tillman said: "From what I can loam I can Hay that our colonies will como in for their sharo of lawmaking; tho Pacific cable will bo disposed of favorably to some ono of tho companies, and tho Nicaragua Canal mattor will likely ro coivo favorable action."
