PRAYER. -o To say my prayer is not to pray, Fnless I mean the words I say, Unless I think to whom I speak, in prayer we speak to God above, We*seek the blessed Saviour's love, We ask for pardon of oar sin. And grace to keep us pure within. Helpful Words on Manage? ment of Children. How a few words of kindly appre? ciation ebeer oar hearts and lighten our burdens. We all need tbera, rich and poor, healthy and diseased, young and old. Many a weary, over-burden? ed wife toils over a task hopeleesly, which a few words from her husband would make infinitely lighter, provi? ded they were words of grateful, pleasant acdnowledgement. 'There is one thing in my life that I regret most deeply,7 said a mother lately. *I used to be dreadfully particular about my house and clothes. Things must be spotless, to suit mc. I was excessively fastidious about ironing. I have changed and grown wiser since. One day I went into the room where the girl had the clothes ready to be ironed. To my amazement my little daughter was there with her face all flushed with heat, excitement and pride. I shall never forget how she looked, so delighted at the thought she " had been helping me. She had ironed several tbiogs in her unprac? ticed way, and indignant at it, I threw the articles of which she was so proud contemptuously aside saying, 4It is too much to see clothes spoiled in this .way. Now, Ellen, cannot get these things to look right.' How her face feil! What keen dissappointment! I would give much if I could undo those .hasty words.' The intentions of chil? dren as well as of grown persous should be looked at. How n>any rude, im? perfect attempts to serve Him, God accepts and reproaches not. If he required perfect service who j would not fail ? A little boy who had j heard of the way flowers are planted, to childish simplicity took some rose buds from his mother s bonnet* with other blossoms and planted them in the ground. He was punished for the act, but really his intentions were in? nocent* 'My mother's kiss,* said Ben-1 jamin West, 'made me a painter. It j was a kiss of approval and surprise at i bis boyish effort io picture-making. .It takes the dauntless spirit of a ?Charles Goodyear to believe in your? self and your final success for a score of years, when no one else has any ?faith in yoa. A mother who was very anxious that her children should be strong and muscular, determined to ?gnore'hot bread, cakes, and sweet? meats, and give them through cold weather for breakfast and tea, por? ridge of Shoemaker's Scotch oat meal She found it very difficult, as other { children of the same age, had different diet, In order to gain her point she sought out stories of famous Scotch? men, who had been fed on porridge and had in after life achieved success ^n various callings. Then she told them of Hugh Miller, Robert Living? stone and others, of their great usc tfuluess, and the help, strength of body j was to them in life, of Elijah's physi eal powers, and as a contrast pictured .the sorrowful, dissappointec lives of >those who were feeble and helpless The effect was wonderful. Weall ticed ] to be encouraged in what ts distasteful by the prospect of something that will afterwards compensate. I could hard? ly get my little soo. to the dentist's until I showed him one day the mouth of a poor neglected little Irish girl, whose teeth were frightfully irregular, alternately prominent and receding, because the Srst ones were not taken out in time. After that, he went will? ingly to the doctor's, and bore the pain of extraction.-Mrs. Bristor in Phila-. ddphia Methodist. What's the Harm? .What's the barm of a game of ! card?' said John Lanitimer to Robert j Stanton, who suddenly come upon bim and his friends as they were gathered around a card table. 'We don't have any stakes. We don't play for money, or cigars, or drinks. We are only j whiling away a little time and having a j little pleasant excitement. Now where's j the harm ?' 'Well,' said Robert, 'perhaps there j is not much harm in the mere act of j playing, as you are playing just now. But I am afraid of the beginning of j such thrings. Card playing is like i drinking. At first it seems innocent j enough ; but at the last, it ruins every- j thing. For my part, therefore, I j choose the safe side. I am very sure, j if I know nothing about cards there j will be no possibility of my becoming a j gambler.' 'By the way,' he continued, 'let me j tell you what I lately saw in the Phila- ! delphia Times. That paper says ; I 'There is a man in Washington who is j now a common gambler, but who, in j other years, bore a splendid name, j He was a graduate of Harvard college, J and was elected at the close of the war, j to the United States Senate, from oue I of the Southern States. He served in j this and other offices with great distioc- j tion. After his terra in the Senate, he j was appointed Assistant Secretary of ? the Treasury. Here his fall began. He became too fond of wine and cards, and finally lost his office and landed in jail. 'After getting out of jail, he was. for a time, wretchedly po^r. He ral? lied a little and got appointed to a twelve hundred dollar clerkship. His friends thought he might recover himself in this position. But he had a terrible passion i for gambling, and under the baleful in- ? fluence of this, he lost his clerkship and his money job. Now he goes about borrowing a dollar or two, whenever he can, which he takes into the lowest gambling places and plays with until it is gone. :>: he has no money, he sits by and ke.ps the score for the^lowi wretches who frequent these hells on earth. He once had a charming faun- I ly of boys and girls ; but he kuows not ? where they are now.' *I tell you what, boys,' said Kobert, j warming up, 'there is harm in anything J which products result like those. if you want to incur such risks, you may. But I ?ill not. In my judgement, the Krst tli?p.jr t't r?rv with a pa.k of The Future of Egypt Tho fallowing from the Presbijtertarc we give our readers in lieu of any lucu? brations of our own : 'Egypt is now the grain of sand in the eye of the nations. She looms up as an international disturber that will sooner or latter be sprinkled with blood. Thc land is a pride by virtue of its position under the skies, and on the earth is the garden of the earth-a jewel io any other crown but a Turk's. A land that can be changed into a very paradise by the distribution over its surface of its own great river, and made equal to the production of five crops a year, is worth much in the long estimate of time's b?n?ficient forces. It is, if possible, more valua? ble in its geographical and political position as the highway of Chritianity, of commerce and civilization to the far East. 'Our country, and much more Great Britain, have great interests to be con? sidered iu the probable fluctuations and perils before Egypt. To great Britian it is as the thread that binds the two parts of its great body to each other, just as the two parts of the ant are united. Egypt is the middle term be? tween kingdom and empire, hence the instinct of life in Great Britain will strive for the alimentary canal between the two parts of her body. Francesas interests, but not so vital. We mean not such interests as would work the dismemberment of any of her provinces. But Great Britain's interest is life. If France and England were let alone, their joint control would put off the day of final contest. The Protectorate over the dying struggles of former Egypt is but the decency of a watch before the funeral. But when she comes forth in ressurree tion as New Egypt, England alone must receive the living treasure, though she may be forced to baptize the new-born in the blood of conflict. The nations, whether willing or not, are coming to recognize this fact.. Selfishness aod its jealousies may prolong the glorious con? summation. The sooner England enters upon this heritage, carved out for her by the un? folding proviuces of God, the sooner the Eastern promblem will be solved to the glory of God and the good of man. It will tend also to give the Great King his possessions, and to the world the blessings of religion and a nobler civiii zatioo. France and England alone of the nations have done anything for the Bible lands. Napoleon III inaugura? ted reforms and made the first passage for tho nations to the East through Egypt, and. the first roads through Syria since the time of the Caesars, and England has become joint possessor, and has given moral and judicial ad? vancement, which entitles her to the Protectorate which she claims in the preseut, and fiual sway when this shall end.' Every child of God has his tendrils about bim-thoughts and desires and hopes, with which be looks on to Christ and the promises. Though this is a very simple sort of faith, it is a very complete and effectual form of it, and in fact, it is the heart of all faith, and that to which we are often driven when we are in deep trouble, or when sickly, or depressed in spirit. We can cling when we can do nothing else, and that is the very soul of faith. Dr. Prime relates an anecdote in the New York Observer which shows some rare qualifications for the pastorate : I was visitiog a great planter in Ken? tucky, near Lexington, while attendiug the Presbyterian Assembly. He want? ed me to see a couple of colts six weeks old, and when they were brought out I said 'Morgan colts.' 'Why,' be ex? claimed, 'do you know a Morgan colt when you see it ?' 'Certainly/ said I, .or an Eclipse colt.' 'Well done/ said he, 'I never saw a minister before that knew a Morgan horse or any other at sight. Why, sir, you can have a call to any church in Kentucky.'

Y. : Gentlemen-For twenty yen rs I ha ve suffer ed more or les? from my bladder and Kidneys. My business for many years had required me to travel all over the southern states. Whilst going to Texas, last fall, I saw hi a paper an advertisement of Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure. I bought a bottle, and in less than a week the improvement in my health was palpable. Since then, my general health ha? improved wonderfully, and 1 now enjoy a degree of health and strength, in every par? ticular, such as I had no: hoped it po silde to enjoy again iu ibis world-of which 1 am sat? isfied, under God's blessing, has beeu duo to your remedy.

Nov 8 THE NEWS AND COCKIER, in the New Year, j will have no other object than to help the j people of South Carolina to manage their own i affairs in their own way. To this end it will i encourage the expression of intelligent opinion j on subjects of general interest, and strive to j be the means of laying before thc whole State ; the views of those who have something sensi i ble to say, and know how to say it. The j Sews and Courier will not bc a passive j spectator of events. It will utter its opinions ? frankly and freely, but, holding that what is wise and true has nothing to fear from analy? sis and discussion, it will never seek to strengthen its own position by suppressing . the opinions of those wbo honestly differ j from it. I The News and Courier, with one exception, is the only newspaper in the South Atlantic States which receives the whole of theSouthern dispatches of the New York Associated Press, and this service will be supplemented by I special dispatches from every part of the State j and the United States. Recognizing the importance of giving the ! people the earlies' and most accurate intelli? gence in State and National affairs, The Ncics \ and Courier, will assign one of the most trus- j j ted and most capable members of its Staff io ! permanent duty at Columbia, and bas sta- j j tioned at Washington the gentlcmno who j : earned golden opinions while on duty at the J State Capital. This will be a year of ferment j and possibly of change in South Carolina, and j what the people require is to have all the news, j without fear or favor, and no matter whom it helps or hurts. The Resident Correspondent of The News and Courier at Columbia will give our readers information concerning men and things which can te obtained in no other newspaper. In like manner, the Resident Correspondent of The News and Courier at Washington, having no other newspaper to serve and being nobody's henchman, will be in position to report impartially the progress events and the acts of public men. Tbe great effort of The New and Courier will be to get the most news, and to get it first and in the best shape. The purpose is to make it a newspaper that no business man. no planter or. farber, no person interested in public affairs can afford to do without. IN THE STATE The News and Courier will advocate honesty, justice and economy, and will insist that merit and capacity shall be the prime tests in selecting candidates for public office. Particular attention will be paid to the i wants of the farmers and planters, and The News and Courier, which formulated, more iban tea years ago, a great economic truth in the phrase "liriug the Mills to the Cotton" will persevere in demonstrating the acLvan j ta^es and profits of manufacturing, of which ; South Carolina already furnishes many strik? ing examples. The utiIi2alion ofthepbos . phate deposits will claim our special care, i with the view of obtaining the largest public I benefits from the common inheritance of the people. The News and Courier will, indeed, be always active in disseminating the knowl? edge of improved processes in agriculture and manufactures, and will spare no pains in j pointing out the means of turning to good ac count the undeveloped as well as the active j resources of .the State. j Believing that the publicschool isthecradle j of an enduring Republic, and that popular j j education is the only permanent protection f against demagogism, The News and Courier will always advocate the largest appropria ! tions for educational purposes that the public j eau bear. j IN NATIONAL AFFAIRS The News and j Courier will advocate Honest Money: the re j striction of the coinage of silver to the j measure of the public demands for use as cur ! rency; the reform of the Civil Service through the Pendleton bill or any similar measure; the revision of the tariff for the relief of the people, and particularly of the agricultural classes; the abolition of the taxes oa bank checks, bank deposit ..nd capital aod on patent medi? cines, an.; tuc retention of the duties on whiskey and tobacco in preference to the j maintenance of the present tariff on imports; j j the regulation of Inter-State commerce by the ? , National Government, so as to deprive rail- ! road corporations and cornbioations of the j ; power to injure and oppress the people; free j ! ships; public improvements by the National j ; Government for National purposes; the ap ! plication of surplus revenue to thc reduction j j of taxation, instead of the headlong extinction | J of the public debt, and, above all, liberal ap- j ! propriations by the National Government for ? . the education of the illiterate voters who were ! imposed upon the country by the act of the I government and who are a perpetual menace [ to free institutions and honest rule, j IN STATE AND NATIONAL AFFAIRS The News and Courier will uphold the rights of the States within their own spheres, under the Constitution as it is, and the supremacy of the National Government in National affairs. And the News and Courier will de? \ vote itself to strengthening good feeling, good j will and mutual confidence between the people ?.of the several States and between the States i and the National Government. J The Sunday News will retain its social and j literary character, in connection with all the i news of the day, and the discussion of home j subjects of local import and application will j be continued. Hereafter none of the news j published in The Sunday Ner?a will bo pub i lished in The News and Courier, j THE TRI-WEEKLY edition of the News ! i and Courier will be issued as before, giving j ,^he reader the news contained in Thc News and Courier, with slight exceptions, at one ! half the price. j TUB WEEKLY NEWS will be greatly im- i j proved. The Chess column and the Agricul- i j tural department will be continued. Puzzles j j and Probiens for young and old will bea i permanent feature, beginning with the New ? ! Year; and io a few weeks we shall begin the ? ; publication of "Ten Terrible Tales1' by an j ; English author of established reputation, j ! Arrangements have been made likewise for a j Serial Story by a South Carolina author j whose works have attained great popularity ! in Northern periodicals, j There is not anywhere iu thc South a better j advertising medium than the News and Coti j tier, and in South Carolina it has theadver I using field, outside of the influential weekly ; press in the country, virtually to itself. It j goes into every part of South Carolina and of i the United States, and has reached a com I manding position with the reading public, ?
