A SERMON.
BY REV. W. FULLER, A DEAF MUTE.
1st. " Hell aieaits you, come to he
saved."?
Hell is not a fable invented by
priests to frighten their fellow-men;
but as sure as the Bible is the word
of God, so sure is it that." the wicked
shall be turned into hell, and all nations
that forget God." "It is appointed
unto men once to die, but after
this the judgment." Then all men
must give an account of " the deeds
<lone in the body." "God will judge
the secrets of all men." Then all
sinners who have not obtained pardon
by coming to Jesus will be on the left
hand of the judge, who will pronounce
their dreadful sentence, "depart, ye
eursedinto everlasting fire, prepared
the devil and his angels." Oh, who
can tell the torments of that place !
Ho more pleasant light of day, no
more cheerful voice of friends, no
more comforts of home, no more pleas- j
Tires of.the world, and si^VSHie Yieli '
man can take-' ngag o/ins^calth-wtt^
, ' v' -^&,;the gay man iiftrie.of hia-anra'se-. 1
past sins will be clearly remembered, j
-and past opportunities of escape, now 1
gone forever. 0, that one of thera 1
might conic back! 0, for one more ,
Sabbath! 0, for one more hour to }
ipray for mercy ? Butitwill be then too i
date. Darkness forever, sin forever, '
woe- forever; Jesus speaks of it as !
"the lake that burnetii with fire-and
.brimstone?outer darkness, where. (
there is weeping and gnashing of
teeth?where the worm dietli not,
and the fire is not quenched?where -1
the wicked rich man, being in tor-'ments,
cried out, "send Lazarus,
that he may dip the tip of his finger ;
in water and cool my tongue, for I
am tormented in this flame." There
""he that is filthy, shall de filthy still,"
and "the smoke of their torment as"?

What misery can be greater than
what such words as these describe!
How dreadful, then to be in hell!
What more horrible; and every unforgiven
sinner is on his way to it;
you whose eye now reads this page,
if you are not pardoned, you are on
your way.
? ?
NEVER.
"I will never leave thee nor forsake tliee.""
Let every believer . grasp these
words, and store them up in his heart.
Keep them ready, and have them
fresh in. your memory; you will want
them ohe day. The Philistines will
he upon you, the hand of sickness

.draw near,.the valley of the shadow
t of death will open up before your
^ .eyes. Then comes the hour when
you will find nothing so comforting
as a text like this, nothing so cheering
as a realizing sense of God's companionship.
. /
. Stick - to that word cneverIt is
Tvorth its weight in gold. Cling to it
as a drowning man clings to a rope.
Grasp it firmly, as a soldier attacked
| en all sides grasps his sword. God
P thas said, and He will stand to. it,"I
Will neVer leave thee."
"Neverl" Though you.r heart be
often faint, and you are sick of self,
and your many failures and infirmities?evfen
then the promise, will not
" "Never!" Though the devil whis;
1 pers, "I shall have you at last; yet a
L
little time and your-faith -will fail,
and you will be mine." Eveu then
the word of God will stand."Never/"
When the cold chill of
death is creeping over you, and friends
can do no more, and you arc starting
on that journey from which there is
no return?-even then Christ will not
forsake you.
. "Never!" "When the day of judgment
comes, and the books are opened,
and the dead are rising from their
graves, and eternity is beginning?
even then the promise will bear your i
weight; Christ will not leave Jlis hold
on your-Soul. .-?> ' f *
0, believing reader, trust in the
Lord forever, for He says, "I will
never leave you." Lean back all
your weight upon Him, do not be
afraid; Glory- in his promise, lle|
joice in the strength of your consolation.
You may say boldly, "The
Lord is my helper, 1 will not fear.

Tiie Bible.?The Bible is the
treasure of the poor, the solace of the
sick, and the support of the dying,
and while other books may "amuse
and instrust in a leisure hour, it is
the peculiar triunph of thaf book to
create light in the midst of darkness,
to alleviate the sorrow which admits
of no other alleviation, to direct a
beam of hope to the heart which no
other topic of consolation can reach;
while guilt, despair and death vanish
at the touch of its holy inspiration.
There is something in the spirit and i
dictation of tlie Bible, which is found j
peculiarly adapted to arrest the at-1
tention of the plainest and most un-'
cultivated minds. The simple structure
of its sentiments, combined with 0
the lofty spirit of poetry?its familiar
allusions to the scenes of nature and
transactions of common life?the de- :
lightful intermixture of narration with 1
the doctrinal and perceptive parts? 1
and the profusion of miraculous facts; j
which convert it into a sort of enchan- 1
Background?its constant adv^rtance to
the Deity, whose perfections -it- 1
rnndpm -*
stptvifig upon it an interest which attaches
to no other performance, atfd *
ivhich, after assiduous and repeated | v
perusal, invest it with much of the i1
diarm. of novelty; liketheorb of day, 'j
it which we are wont to gaze with
unabated astonishment from infancy 1
to old age. What other book besides 1
the Bible could be heard in public as- 1
sembliea from year to year with at- '
tention that nevers tries anil an inter- 1
est that never cloys? With few ex- '
eeptions, let a portion of the- sacred f
volume be recited in a xnixed mul (
titude, and though it lias been heard jf
a, thpusand times, a universal stillness
epsues, every eye is fixed, and every j
ear is awake and attentive. Select, ]
if you can, any other composition, 1
and let it be rendered equally famil- '
iar to the mind, and sec whether it
will produce this effect.
What is Happiness??Let a man
have all the world can give him, he is !
still miserable if he has a grovelling, 1
undevoted mind. Let him have his '
garden, his fields, his woods, his lawns;
for grandeur, plenty, ornament, and
gratification; while at the same time
God is not in all his thoughts, and ,
let another have neither field nor gar- :
den, let him only look at nature with :
an enlightened mind?a mind which
can see and adore the Creator in all
his works?can consider them as demonstrations
of his power, his wisdom,
his goodness and truth; this man is
greater as well as happier in his poverty,
than the other in his riches?the
one a little higher than a beast?the
other a little lower than an angel.
Terrible Disease Along tiie
Yazoo.?A terrible disease similar
to the cholera, broken out among the
freedmcn on the plantations along the
Yazoo River tvnd the lower part of
Carroll County, Mississippi. It has.
every appearance of cholera, but it is
confined entirely to the negro popu
lation. Eleven of the latter had died
within a fc\y; days on one platation,
and lesser numbers on otljers, Avhilst
many of the ncgrocsn are dagcrously
sick.
?
The Jackson (Mississippi) Clarion
suggest General Jas. Longstrect for
Congress as a Senator from Lousiana.
It makes this nomination Avithout the
knowledge of that gentleman, but feeling
that the honor of the South "would
be secure if confided in council to the
keeping of one who guarded it so atcII
in the field.
A Young Minister hugged
against his WlLL.?-A most ludicrous
scene-transpired in A place not
a thousand miles from the city" of
Louisville one night last week, which,
though a little annoying to the pairties
immediately concerned, was yCt
so innocent and funny tl\at/ We"' cannot
refrain from giving >the7gehend
outlines?suppressing names, 'of.
course.
Two sprightly and beautiful young
ladies were visiting their cousin, aitother
sprightly and beautiful young*
lady, who, like her guests, o?.
thathappy age' winch turns everything
into fun and merriment. If the
truth were told, we fear that we shouldhave
to record the fact that these,
three young misses werd just a little
bit fast. They were fond, of practical
jokes, and were continually playing
all sorts of mad pranks with each
other. All three occupied a room on
the ground floor, and huddled up together
in one bed. w,?
Two of the young ladies attended'''
a party on the night in qucstfcjiji, and
did not get home until half-past-'' 12
o'clock at night. Asifcwas late^tliey
concluded not to disturb the household,
so they quietly stepped into
tlieit'rooin through the low window.
In about half an hour after they
had left for the party a young Methodist
minister called at the house
where tfley were staying and craved
a night's logding, which of course was 1
cheerfully granted. As ministers always
have the best of everything, the
old lady put him to sleep in the best i
room, and the young lady (Fannie) '
who had not gone to -the party was i
entrusted with the duty of sitting up -1
forjwic absent ones and of informing -i
tneih of the change of rooms. She took 1
up her post in the parlor and as the 1
night was sultry, sleep overcame her i
and she departed on an excursion to 1
the land of drearus. We will now re- <
turn to the young ladies who had gone t
nt'o their room through the' window. J
By the-dim light of the moonbeams t
:o descry tlie outlines* of Fannie (as c
hey supposed) ensconced in the mid- c
lie of the bed. They saw more, to s
yit?a pair of boots. The truth s
lashed upon them both at once, i
rhey saw it all, Fannie had them
n the room to give them a scare. They 1
fut their heads together and deter- 1
nined t.n turn the tables on her. Si- 1
lently they disrobed, and as stealthy i
is cats they took their positions on ?
?aeh side of the bed. At a given .t
ngnal they'both jnvnpcd into bed, one i
)n each si do 'of the unconscious person,
laughing, and screaming, "Oh, t
what a man, Ob, what a man!" they t
gave the bewildered minister such a (
promiscuous hugging and tousling few J
persons are able-to brag of in the t
course of a lifetime. <
The noise of this proceeding awoke 1
the old lady, who was sleeping in an 1
ndjoining room. She comprehended t
the situation in a moment, and rush- <
ing to the room, she opened the door ]
and exclaimed : "My God,' gals, it is i
a man; it is a man shurc enough!"
There was one prolonged, consolidated
scream; aflasli of muslin through,
the door, and all was over.
The best of the joke is that the minister
took the whole thing in earnest.
He would listen to no apologies the
lady could make for the girls. H<?
would hear no excuse, but. he solemnly
folded .his clerical robes pypund him
and stole away.
Query?Was he mad at the girl s,
or at the okl woman? ., .

Qnc day, during the hard winter of
-18G2, a Miss Arnold applied to Gen.
Milro'y for a permit to forage her cow,
" " -i ^..4.
whose milk was tne cuiei. o ui
the family.
"Arc you loyal?" asked the General.
"Yes," she replied.
lie began to write the permit.
"To the United- States or Confederate
States?"
"To the Confederacy, of course,"
she replied.
"Then I shall give you no permit.
This infamous rebellion must be
crushed."
"Well saidslje, "if you think you
can crush it by starving John Arnold's
old cow, go it."

f: -The Dignity of Labor.?It is ari
indication ef idleness in any mind to
be;ashamed of work Jt is to, deny
the Ihw of Nature, for it is a univer-.
.sal..man date, written in the necessity
^pfjtfiings, that "in the sweat of thy
;jacb" is everything grtat or valuable
to be accomplished. We look as in
yaip,: to witness the accomplishment
Of anything without the application
of mental or physical effort. Where
are the monuments of creative idleness?
" When are the .triumphs of genius

Xot^Snakes no record of them, /they*

trace of them, for they are not, and
lave not been. All that dignifies

All this and more has labor
done. It has beautified life and made
ittolerable. Without work, existence
were a dull monotonous prolongation
of days, with jaaught to mark the lapse
of time, but the rising/and setting sim.
\^lio covets the barren life full of
ease, that has no manly struggles,
no doubtful battle-fields, no generous
thjflls? Rather than to be doomed to
such a Bead Sea-.fate, we would be
thrown upon the billows in an eternal
Conflict, to alternate forever between

BRE AIDING-IfP A SETTING HEN ,?
"Timothy, that; air yaller hen's
settin'. agin,";safd Mrs.'Hayes to her
son.'one morning at breakfast. ,-v
"Well, lether set," remarked Timothy,
helping himself to a Jarge
piece of "cheese, ifl reckon Tucan
stand it as long as she can." ^ ' f
"I do wish you would tryvto be a
little equinomical to cheese, Timothy;
I've cut the very last of .flay lotj and
it's only, the first of May. And now
as.soon as you've done eating I want
you to.go oijJt. an^-brdak. up that hen^ i
<She's settin'fcon an ofd ax' and Itwo
bricks now."
"I.hppe she'll hatch 'em," returned
Timothy. ( f*
/ ^ If she was set now, she'd hatch
the.rfourth week in May. It's a bad
sigh; something allers happens arter
it; Stop giggling, Helen Maria; by
tlie time you get to be as old as yer
ma, ye'll see further than you do now.
There was Jenkins' folks, their topknot
hatched the last of May, and
Mrs. Jenkins, she had the- conjunct .
tioii of the lungs, and woald have
died if they hadn't killed.#"lamb aij$wrapped
her in the hide while-it Was
warm. That was all thai saved her.'3 ''
With such a. startling proof., of the
truth and the. omen before him, Timothy
finished lus breakfast in haste-'"
and departed for-" the barn, from ;
Which he soon ^returned bearing biddy
by the legs. j
" What shall I do with her, mother??She'll
get on again, and she's ,
cross as bedlam^she skinned my <
hands, and would be the death of me ;
if she could get-loose. ; (
" I've heer'nt it said it was a good
plan tothrow 'em up in the air," said }
Mrs; Hayes. "Aunt Peggy broke g
one of setting only three times trying. ?
Spose you try .it," j
"Up -she goes; head or tail!"
cried Tim, as he' tossed the volcano <=
skyward. *- ' t

" Down with? the traitors, up with }
the stars," sang out Tim, elevating ^
biddy again with something lcss^han j
a.p;int_g?hatter hanging to her feet. ?
~" (Jcwd gracious me, wuss and j
wuss,"' cried" Mrs. Mayes, ana um (
agreed with her, for the hen had ]
come down on the well-polished tile 1
of Esquire Bennet. who happened to ,
be passing, and.the dignified old gen- ,
tleuian. was^thc father, of Cynthia ^
Bennett, the young lady with whom ,
Tim was seriously enamored. 1
.The Squire looked daggers, brush- 1
ed off the' dough with his handker- .
chief., and strode on in gilcnce,
"Yes, but it's going up'.'again,"
said Tim, spitefully seizing the chick-.
ing biddy and. tossing her at random
into the air. Biddy thought it time
to manifest her individuality, and ;
with a loud scream she darted against
the parlor window, broke through,
knocked down the canary cage,'
and landed plump in the silken lap
of Mrs. Gray, who was boarding
at the farm house.
Mrs. Gray screamed with horror,
and starting up, dislodged biddy, who
flew at fyer reflection in the lookingglass
with an angry hiss. The glass
was shattered and down came the hen
astonished beyond measure, against
? '? " i i x i
a vase oi flowers, which upset, mm iu
.falling knocked over the stand-dish
and deluged with water a pair of drab
colored velvet slippers which Maria
was embroidering for her lover, Mr.
James Ilcnshaw.
Idolen entered the room just as the
mischief-had been d.Qne, and viewing
the ruin, at once laid it tp her brother
Timothy. She heard his steps bebjpd
her, and the unfortunate hen
flung full into his face.
There was a smothered, oath, and
the hen came back, with the force of
a twenty pound shot.

with a true feminine zeal. She hfolve
his vatchguard in a dozen pieces,
crushed his dickey and began ft. pull
his whiskers out by. the roots, wlion
suddenly she remembered that Timothy
had no whiskers to pull out by the
roots.
But when she came to look closer,
she perceived that the man she hail
nearly annihilated ^as not Timothy,
but James Honshaw.

fled into her chamber, the usual refuge
