still tIn*y nddod niueh to tlio enjo\ inont

and they were nicely cooked and

to enjoy it immensely well, and
judoino from what ! took in I mean
my eyes 1 think others did too.
Some of them wen' to supper before
m?injr out there, then they left me in
the shade; yet some of fhem seemed
ama/ed that I should talc* a little
more after havine oaten nearly a
shoulder and two dishes of rice, besides
other oood things which the
ladies had carried aVuio. 1? il prep

Mr. Alecrnon S. Sullivan, tin* <|istinouishcd

I only wish that some of

Mr. Viroinus |)al>ney, the teacher

"The President's utterances and

of sectionalism. The South aeeepts

Mr. John (Latham, Jr., of the

who is a Kentuekian, declared:
"I do wish to he interviewed on

These views, if correct, arc still
farther strengthened by the buildiim
of the ark. As the race had not !

lived not verv far from the original

is probable that tho gopher wood
is of the long-leaf pine. 1 need not i
sa* that either of the ('arolinas eou!d
have furnished the materials in abun- j

That the ark was built somewhat
inland for convenience of timber, is
probable. Vol not very far, as the I
principle weight of it> car00 was to
be graminivorous stock, and largo 1
(Quantities of dried herbage, both of
which was to come from meadow
lands.
The breaking up of the deep, tkc.,
at the time of the delude, would not
imply necessarily any very threat
change in the conformation of the
continents, nor in the sea currents.
We must also remember that the
Lord at the creation had in \iew the
possibility of the llood, as well as of
the "fall," and arranged accordingly.
When the ark was lifted up, and as
it \4 so grandly said, "went upon the
face of the waters,"' it started due

It would presently strike the

to Arar t is 181 depress of lati(tide,

I ,ast week we itifiiti?>11 <*< 1 the fact
tlmt nt one of our "best the.'iters,"
the plnv nt present on the boards was
(lenouiiced : ? utterly unworthy I?y
seyernl of our leading dailies. At
another of the most fashionable theaters,
a famous actress ni<ditly leads
ir. a play which cannot here be described
in outline on account of its
yileness. At a third theatre in this
city, and one of the oldest and most
renowned, tin* present play is thus
described in tin* W'orh/: *'lt may
as well be said a' once, it is not a
tp-eat nr even a cooil play. It deals
with the attempt of a wife to poison
law husband because she loves anoth
r man, and her method is to administer
poison in the ouise of medicine.
She is trapped by an old doctor, and,
when discovered in her scheme, she
drinks the poison Ici'self and ends
her career. This malign purpose is
worked out with little attempt, a'
!- ispense or eri-is. She is jealous of
her husband's half-sister, who is to
receive Ills fortune, and b> prevent
her from obtaining her rifdits am' to
secure the man she loves, who happens
to love the half-sister, poison 's
resorted to. That such a motive
should be treated in a comedy vein
is characteristic of oar time. A' au\
other period it would have received
laelo-iliamatie attention. I b?re i' 's

A Very Sim loin.
The dispatches to the press from
Nashville, Tenn., said that on a recent
Sahhatli tlie pastor of the .MoKendree
< 'luirrh, in his discourse,
spoke in stromr terms against the
I n n
theater and ('hureh-members attending.
.Miss Kmma Abbott, who was
present, arose and declared that she
had been on the staire for a number
of years, mill a member of tlio <'luircli,
and was jv Christian. The audience
cheered her. So much the worse fori
Miss Abbott if the idea was to prove
that the theater is ri^ht. Daniel was
in the lion's den, but that did not
prove it a proper or a o-ood place for
him. I.ot dwelt in Sodom, lint that
does not prove that Sodom was a
oood place for hot. Miss Abbott
Iimm been in the theater for a nuinbt r
of years, and it may* be a verv Sodom
for all that. If she is a Christian
she would better torsake it,- St.
/.ouis O/fsci'i'c)'.
No IV! low sli i p Detween Them.
When t!n? actress, Miss Kmma Abbott,
arose in church at Nashville, at
the close of of Mr. Candler's sermon
ao'iinst 1 heaters, and denounced it,
she did a verv foolish thinjr; and
when, in defense of her profession,
she named three or four actresses of
<o>od character, she made a verv weak
argument. A nrofession in which
thousands of women are eonstantlv
employed, and which can support a
claim to respectubilitv only by pointing
to a woman here and there who
maintains a pure reputation, must be
snnk verv low in its own estimation.
If Miss Abbott is a church-ipemher,
and a reputable one, as she claims to
be, she must feid verv lonesome in
the company which she keeps, and it
is |>rotmi>iv tins tooling which made
her so jsoiisiitiVi* that she could not sit
still in church and Irear a preacher
speaking plain words about the theater.
If the Church to which she belongs
had done its duty by her she
would either have been saved from
the lonesome position which she now
occupies, or the Church would have
been saved from having on its roll a
noted actress. Between the true
Church and the theater there never
has been and there never can be any
fellowship. From the second century
until this day, the two have been
at war with each other. "Apostolic

much life as a country cow, worth
fifty dollars and equipped with a two
dollar saddle and a twontv-fivo cent
bridle. (>f course the mount was
