When the men over 35 wen' discharged, Henderson: Lindley came homo and remained un til Capt. W. A. Sullivan's cavalry com pany was formed, lie served with til in until the surrender. Thomas continued until mustered out of set' vice, when the Union army was de feated at Cedar run in West Ya. when they loft all their camp equipage, Thomas found a chest of greenback money in the quarter-master's tent in big shoots of bills that had not been cut apart. He deliberately filled his haversack with the brand now money. Alas for him. his colonel found out his big haul and sent for him and took all the money from him. in the Knoxville campaign he was put on detail to guard the house ol some ladies out in the country.

(Contributed) Following is the text of an address delivered at the tent in this city by Joseph \V. Helms, corresponding sec retary South Carolina Christian Mis sionary society: "L pray that they may all be one. even as I and the Father are one. that the world may believe that thou hast sent me." (John 17.) The church as een in the New Testament is a unit. Jesus speaks of it as "my church;" Faul speaks of it at being "one body", and many times as "the body." or the "body of Christ.' The author of Acts uses the following expressions. "The Cord added to the Church," "they were all of one heart and one soul". The church Is Hgure tlvely described as a kingdom. a household, a house, temple, body, bride chastevirgin. a city, every one ot which implies unity. "The church divided into denomina tions or sects is positively forbidden in the New Testament. If the church was once a unit, why can not its unity be restored? The Lord of glory oft expressed Iiis will that the churoh should forever maintain its unity. The seventeenth chanter of John is the the last recorded prayer for his disci ples. It is the night of Iiis betrayal, arrest and mock trial. He is under the very shadow of the cross. He is about to leave them .and is full of tender so licitude for their future. I!.* is com. mining a great trust to them. Will tiny pray faithful Will the powers of hell prevail against His church? Note that live times he prays to the Father that His followers may "all be one." lie knew that in order to ac complish the task that was given Him self through t'ne Gospel that they might believe "that .!"sus is the ("m ist, the Saviour of men,' ;t would require a "oneness" He prayed for all ol them "that would believe on II I 111 through tin- apostles' word, "that they might be one." every nation, every tongue, every clime, for all time. His prayer is a constant rebuke to the present divided condition of His church. "Perceiving ;i tendency toward di vision among the diclples in Corinth, Caul rebukes them ii Cor. 1:10-15) be seeching them in the Mnstor's name "to speak the same things, beclosoly united in the same mind, and in the same judgment," and to have no di visions among them. In the third chapter of the same apostle he con demns division as a mark of carnality. In his leiier to the Calatians. (Gl. ?">: 10, Jit be includes "factions, divisions, and parties." as works cd' the flesh, thus we sec that sects and denomina tional divisions in the church are plac ed on pur with the gross sins which curse our poor humanity. "Notice further that the united "hotly ot' Christ'' the church did not in the apostle's days wear the designations now so common; Jesus calls it "my church." Paul says to the church al Rome, "The churches of Christ salute you " he writes letters to the "church of God." The church was the "bride of Christ," and properly wore the bridegroom's name. It was the "Church of the first horn," "the house hold of Cod." "the church of the living Cod." The people within this church bore names, beautifully setting forth the relationship of Christianity. In relation to each other they were, "Brethren," in relation to character, "Saints," in relation to learning, "dis ciples," in relation to Cod, "Children." in relation to Christ. "Christians,"? Christ-ones, or Christ-followers. They never wore the name of a man. or a name after a form or method of doing things. Realizing that they were one meat family, fullfliling the prophesy; "I will make of one blood for all na tions'," they wore only the family name, and suffering as "Christians' they learned to glorify Cod in that name, i I PoL 1: 16). "I pray you" said Marlin Luther, "leave my name alone and do not call yourself Lutherans, but Christians, the doctrine Is not mine. I was not crucified for any one, how then do< it fit me. a miserable bag of dust, to give my name to the children of Christ. Cease to cling to these parly names and distinctions, away with them, and let u- call ourselves Christians, aller I lim from whom otll doctrine comes." ' Would to Cod. said Wesley, "thai all sectarian names were forgotten, am) that we as humble loving diciples, might sit down at the Master's feet, read his holy word, imbibe bis spirit, and transcribe bis life Into our own." "Vet there are these who darken council, and may the Lord be merci ful to them, that seek to justify and perpetuate the sects of Christendom. There was a woman willing to have Solomon divide the living child, but she was not the child's mother. To divide the dead bints nothing, but to divide the living means to bring about another death. Jesus drew but one line, the one separating the church from the world. In the ITlh chapter of John the Master distinguishes his followers from the world, but never from each other, but men have divided' Christians from eacti other, and n gainst each other. The church in tills condition can not succeed in doing the Master's will. "Destroy the works ot the devil." The millenium should nev er dawn on a divided church. With out doubt the Father will answer the Saviour's prayer for unity, just as soon as the divided church withdraws her objections. "Unity win he brought about, not by inventing new schemes or making new creeds. Rather it will come when men stand in the way and see, when they ' ask for the old paths, where is the good way. and walk therein, (.lor. 6:16) It will come as men go hack to seek the fountain head, back beyond' Westmiidster. back beyond Epworth, hack beyond Augsburg, past Nice, past Rome to Jerusalem; as they pass from the speculations and opinions of men to the eternal verities of Cod reveal ed; as the "sheep heed only the Mas ter's voice, there will he one fold, one shepherd." t .lohn 10:16.
