apt to be a rockit: chair. She had so
inany cares and troubles to soothe that
it must have rolckers. I remember it
well. It wa-s atl old chla i, and the roc k

as it moved; bt, there wts inusic im the

posited till our hurts and worries. Ah!
what a chair that was. It was difFerent
from the fither's chair; it was entirely
dilffere.it. You ask me how? I cannot
tell; bti. we tall felt it was different. 'er
haps there was about, that chair more
rentletess, more tenleriness, more griel
when we had done wrong. When we
were wayward, flather scolded, but moth

many yea's. 1. may be set utp in the

power yet. When at miidight you went

And louder than the boisterous encore

And when. you went, Into the house of

A pioneer in California says that for Al

in Sierra Nevada county, there was not Lit
a sin-ule child in all te reach of a hun- P(

caie, and the miners were gather-d P(
together and they were celebratiog the is
Fourth with oration, and poem, and a tr
boisterous brass tiand; and while the band hit
was playing. an infant's voice was heard hi
crying, and all the miners were startled, 1
and the swarthy men began to think of w
their homes on the Eastern coast, audof w
their wives and children far away, and hi
their hearts were thrilled with home- C
sickness as they heard the babe cry. to
But the music went on, and the child v(
cried louder and louder, and the brass
band played louder and louder, trying is'
to drown out the infantile interruption, itV
when a swarthy miner, the tears rolling 8e
down his face, got up and shook his list, T
and said: "Stop that noisy band, and in
,rive the baby a chance." Oh! there at
was pathos in it, as well as good cheer at
in it. There is nothing io arouse, and th
melt, and subdue the soul like a child's mN
voi.e. But, when it goes away Irom you, fu
the high chair becomes a high.r chair, of

three fourths of the homes of this con- eE

Somehow you never get over it. There til
is no one to put to bed at night; no one bt
to ask strange questions about God and d(
heaven. Oh, what is thseuSe Of tat ot
hIghI chaire it is to call you higher. la
What a drawing upward it is to have Si
children in heaven! And then it is such re
a preventive avainst sin. It a father is pi
going away into sin, he leaves the living 1l
of his children with their mother; but if ti
the lather is going away into sin, what is

conie back from sin; mother, conic back a
from worldliness. I am watching you. e:
I am waiting for you." With respect to b
your child, the words o! my text, have t(
been fullilled: "Thou shalt, be missed, f
because thy seat will be empty." 11
My hearers. I have gathered up the d
voices of your departed friends and tried
to intone thei into one invitation up- i
ward. I set in array all t,he vacant, chairs L
of your homes and ol' our social cir

Come up where 1 ain. We lived togeth- u(
er on earth, conic let us live together in .
heaven." We answer that invitation. i
We come. Keep a seat for us, as Saul
kept a seat for David, but that seat shall P

from the city of "Culchaw" to start that
Itepiblican campaign of edtication

tiff" to start. A meeting was held
in tho Grand Central hotel last night,
and (lie rough draft of an address was
itatle which was completed today.
(in iv white inen were present and

Nicholl of Gretnville, .1. llendrix Mc'.

I t is proposed to go to work and thor
oighly org:.nize in evry couity, and
if at- all stiCessful to enter the lielI of
s!ate potiles in earnes. The address
is as l ollows:
The leputhcan league o1 South Car
oliit, Items it proper to publish a few
briel* statelients which will refute c'r
tain slaidiers that have recently heei
ptiblished ani otherwise circulated by
those calling themuselves Rtepuiblicans,
but whr are unfriendly to the league
movement.
The extravagant and unw.trr,antfl
ehar.-os that are mado both in print and
in a private way sgainst the colored
clergy as well as against some of the
luen who are prominently connected
with this ih>ptiblican club organizatioti
bith in ant outside of tile state, impels
is L I his action.
I. We wish to state that there Wias n11
itnil raised in IBoston last year or at
any other tine and put into the hands
of \l r. NIcLain or any other tiember of
the league to help the Farmers Alliance
in I his state.
2. In consequence2 of the foregoing
ite wholesale charges of' corruption
ti:uo against. the colored clergy falls
loverless at, the feet, of these people.
itt ihe election last fall fully demons
i rated oe patent fact -that the colored
race is toit hereafter to be traded on by
thle mere ioliical spectilator- -no furth
er prool ol the impotency of those who
It(,r ye;ars claiiedl to b1e the custodians
l 1i he colored vote is nveded -they could
.ot it-liver anything -this farce can be
carriel oni no longer.
3. Nveir before have we known (Gen.
- Clarkson branded as a cirriiptionist,
I I )in t lie contrary we know hitit to be a
liure and k1pright ilan, and one whoml
any p:irty or st;te couilil well be prou
I of. And we think the Ittepublican
I l';j,e of the t 'nited States is to be con
- gratilated on its choice of so able and
- ilicient an organizer.
1. It is, however, very easy to deline
the re:tson why that element iti this
state wh-]to have formed the habit of
thiriking that they had a in1onlopoly of
the manie ieptiblicai would be greatly
igitatetdI antI concerned onl account of
the league movement. For this gen
time 1Iepublicain organization does not
present any such rose-colored inluce
iments to sitch a class, biut inteids that
inl the hitnre the doors of the Illeplii
cai party sliall be wide enough openl for
t ie admission of all worthy people who
imay wish toi enter.
