THE LUTHERAN VISITOR. COLUMBIA. 8. C., AUGUST 30. 1872.
The Parson Going to ]
Tin* pin son .sat in hi* house out* day
While the wintry storm did rain*;
High-rapt he drauk iu lofty thought.
From Hooker’s etassie page,
lint as he sat, and holy dream*
Into his heart did steal,
His sweet wife oped the door and said :
“My dear, we have no meal !”
With saddened brow and heavy *igh
He laid aside his book,
And with a meek, despairing eye
Upon the hearth did look.
“My people think that I must break
To them the bread of heaven ;
Hut they’ll not give mu bread enough
Three whole days out of Severn”
Hut hunger is a serious tiling,
Aud it is sad to hear
Sweet children’s mournful cry for hreud
Loud ringing in your ear.
So straight he mounted his old horse
With meek and chastened will,
Aud on his meal-bag patched and course,
He journeyed to the mill.
The miller bowed to him, and said,
"Sir, by your church steeple, ,
1 vow 1 give you praise for this,
Hut none to your church people.”
The parson mounted his old horse.
He had no time to lag,
And rode like a hero to his home,
HigltSpan liis old meal bag.
But aa he rode, be overtook
A proud and wealthy layman.
Who with a close, astonished gaze
The parson Vi hag did scan.
“My reverend friend, the truth to tell,
It makes me feel quite wroth
To see you compromise this way
The honor of vonr doth.
“Why told you not, my honored frieud,
Your meal was running low ;
What will the neighbors think of us.
If to the mill you go!”
“My wealthy friend,” the parson said,
“You must not reason so;
For ’tis a fixed and settled tiling.
My meal is alrrityx Iwr.
“If my dear people wiah to know
How to promote my Miss,
I'd simply say, a hag of meal
Will never come amiss :
.last keep the store-room well supplied,
And I will be right still ;
Hut if the meal give out again,
I must go to the milLf*
MORA*..
laiyuien ! it needs no miracle.
No hard, laborious toil,
To make the parson's tueal-hag like
The widow’s cruse of oil.
Pour forth into liis wife’s store-room
Your gifts right plentiful:
The miracle is simply this.
To keep ft aheay* fall.

The Good
Not many weeks bgo a dear boy
of fourteen years of age died in the
city of Savannah, ije was so good
a boy that I thought some other
boys of his age who are living might
Ujke to hear something about him.
His name was Tiiwley McAlpine.
lie was well and happy, enjoying
life and the society of his friends,
and a great comfort jto his mother,
Ss WeH as a helper to her in her
daily life far beyond his years.—
How surprised and grieved we all
were when one morning we heard
that the dear boy whs dead! His
mother, away in a distant city, knew
not when her beloved son passed
from earth to heaven
Tinsley wax uerer known to dixetbey
hix parent*. “What, never in any
manner f” some child will say. No !
his family never knew him to lie
otherwise than uniformly obedient,
gentle and kind, thoughtfal of the
slightest thing that could administer
to the comfort of his mother. At
his early age he would transact all
her business affairs for her with
judgment and correctness. She
leaned upou her son as her hope
aud support in future years—a hoi»e
suddenly blasted
One hot day he took a walk out
<of the city, and became qnite fa
tigued and overheated.- On bis re
turn lie complained of his head
aching. The next day being the
Sabbath, many boys iu his situation
would have stayed at home, but he
did uot. He loved the Sabbath-
school, and loved his church and
pastor. So he went to the house of
God. That uiglitfTie was taken very
ill, aud soon became delirious. In a
few days his spirit left the world.
Many instances have been related
to me of bis firm principles, and his
Christian patience and courage to do
what was right. One instance was
not tong ago. He entered his pas
tor’s study, with a beaming face and
kiudliug eye, and iu a tone that be
trayed suppressed excitement said,
“Dr. A., I have come to ask yon
a question, sir.”
“Well, my son, what is it t” said
the Doctor.
“Is it right or wrong to play mar
bles for winnings T”
lie evidently rather hoped that
liis pastor wonld say, “Oh, there is
iki harm in it" Ills pastor kindly
mid:
“Welt, Tinsley I tumid not like to
Imto you it tf you piny mm tor
is the name from a small game of
marbles tip to the Faro bank.”
“That is sufficient, sir. That de
eides me,” said the boy.
“Well, what are you going to do
about the matter, Tinsley V*
“Oh, sir, I wHl not play for win
nings. I will play for fun with the
others, hut not for winnings.”
“You will bo exposed to ridicule
aud scorn, my child, from other
Iniys. Can you bear that f They
will call you u child under his mo
ther’s control, and chicken-hearted.
Can you stand their scorn for not
doing as they do I” said Dr. A.
The child drew himself up proudly,
and a look of high tone* 1 courage
Unshed from his eye as he said :
“1 ant not afraid, sir, to do what
is right. That was what I wanted
to knoy. Yon say it is wrong, and
the l toys may laugh. I care not, so
long as I am doing right. The mat
ter is nettled.”
liis pastor was so affected by the
boy’s reply that he could have wept
tears of joy over the strength and
principle thus displayed.
Again, not long ago lie had set
his heart u|h>ii some plan which he
anxiously desired to have aceem
plished. Ill some uianm!t his wishes
were thwarted. He lion* the disap
pointment with a resignation which
older Christiana would hardly have
exhibited, and when his mother sym
pathizingly spoke to him on the sub
ject, he replied :
“Well, mother, God knows t>e*t ;
perhaps he did not want my wishes
gratified. What he desires on the
subject is for the lieat.”
Could any experienced Christian
of sixty years’ bestowal of grree
have said more f Tinsley’s heart
was given to the Lord, and sub
mission to his will was easy for him.
What an example to some children
who cry and fret if they are disap
pointed in any cherished plan, and
to some older jieoplc who even make
themselves and others unhappy if
it rain storm mars or defeats, the
intended plans of a day.
In his last sickness this dear bov
hail no time to prepare for eternity.
He had no need of time. When in
health he attended to the still small
voice of the Saviour tliat^ gently
calls young children, “My son, give
me thine heart.” His youthful affec
tions were given to Hint who gave
his life for us t . Tbjgfffore whfpi the
Angel of Death with shadowy wings
bore him over the dark river, he was
received by the bright angels that
the Ixml sends to take good children
from this world to that tieautifiil
land where they will never be sick
again and where they shall be happy
forever. Ilis pastor and friends miss
the earnest attention and thonghtfn!
maimer of the Sabbath school schol
ar. His mother aud family miss the
kind, attentive child, and tin* bright
flower of the family is failed and
gone! But they all rejoice to know
that their parting is not eternal.
“Suffer little children to <-ome unto
me, for of such is the kingdom of
heaven.” B.
Miscellaneous.
One Hundred Year* Ago.
One hundred and ten years ago
there was not a single white man in
Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana or Illinois.
Then, what is the most flourishing
part of America was as little known
as the country around the mysterious
mountains of the moon. It was uot
until 1767 that Boone left his home
in North Carolina, to become the first
pioneer settler in Keutucky. The
first pioneer of Ohio did not settle
until twenty years later. Canada be
longed to France, and the imputation
did not exceed a million and a half of
people. A hundred years ago the
Great Frederick of Prussia was per
forming those grand exploits which
have made him immortal iu military
annals, and with his little monarchy
was sustaining a single contest with
Kussia, Austria and France, the
three great powers of Enrol** com
bined. Washington was a modest
Virginia Colonel, and the great
events in history of the two worlds
iu which these great but dissimilar
men took leading parts were then
scarcely foreshadowed. A hundred
years ago the United States were
the most loyal part of the British
Empire, and oil the i*)litical horizon
no speck indicated tliestruggle which,
witliiu a score of years thereafter,
established the great republic of
the world. A hundred years ago there
were bnt four newspajierH in Ameri
ca ! Steam engines had uot been
imagined, railroads and telegraphs
had not entered into the remotest
conception of men. When we come
to look at it through the visUt of
history, we find that to the century
just passed has been allotted umn*
im|»ortaitt events, in their lieariug
upon the happiness of the world,
