But, as j in apostolic days, we had some fighting j Peters in the Church?men that knew j no personal fear and brooked no iosult with impunity, One nighfe while a crowd was disturbing tn? assembly, one of these fighting Methodists went out and challenged them, telling them be coold 1 whip a regiment of such cowards ; but | knowing the pluck and spirit of the man, they took good care not to accept the challenge. - On another occasion, while Wm. Capers was preaching on ?g: therdivinity of Christ, a man in the congregation gave him the lie. Imme diately Mr. Capers took his seat; <g^?i whereupon some parties, not members of Jbe Church, hurried him to the door and thrnst bim down the steps. When quiet was restored, Mr. ( apers rose aod finished bis sermon as though nothing bad occurred. Partly through curios ity, arid from a desire to bear the im passioned eloquence of the Methodist preachers, great crowds would attend our churches at night. This had its eSect; for the gospel was preached with such earnestness and power, that it proved to be seed sown in good ground that brought forth an hundred fold. " . 5^ PS: ri.

Every generation iir.own in politics, j^ligibn, to which former generation known seasj ^Columbt duti has problems of and morals, and the experience of [1 on partly no ue man is a er his own , Bishop Wiley on Utah. Bishop Wiley, of the M. E. Church, in an address at a missionary meeting, thus spoke upon the Mormon question : 'Utah is now occupied by about 150,000 people, 130,000 of whom are Mormons and reaching out farther into Nevada and other Territories you have 20,000 Mormons in the circle and then you bare the full number, 150,000 Mormons. I intended to stop to tell you what Mormon ism is, but will give you some of its features.. We have there, in the heart of our country, one of the. most abominable and vile cari catures upon religion and disgraces upon civilization that now exists in the world. Just think of it ! In the heart of this Christian land, in the end of this ninetieth century, on the richest and most beautiful territory is grow ing and prospering and magnifying every day one of the fonlest abomina tions of this earth; one of the most terrible impositions ever practised on man and woman; one of the most wicked deceptions ever imposed upon people abroad, and one of the most sub* tie in character that ever gained a foothold in our country. These are very hard words, but true, every one of them. As a religion it is false and as a system it is tyranny. It is vile, root and branch, stem and leaf. I make the indictment coolly and delib erately because I know what it is. Now, what does 150,000 Mormons mean ? It beans 150.000 people who believe in Joseph Smith's bible, in Mor mon revelation, under the divine inspi ration of Brigham Young ; 150,000 people who now believe in the inspira tion and divine revelation of John Tay lor; 150,000 people who believe the best man among them is the 'Hon.' J. B. Cannon, very severely married to be a representative or delegate to the United States Congress; 150,000 people who believe in plural marriages-; 150,000 people who believe in marrying- for time and eternity, marrying half a dozen wives down here and half a dozen more up there; 150,000 people who at this, time set at defiance the laws of the United States ; and yet year after year th? patient American nation lets it alone. There is no place else in this world where this blot could exist.' Breaking Down? Men often have their hands full, are. overcrowded with business and drivejiurriedly along at it, but they may not be overworked. - We cannot always tell when we are. overworked. A man does not always know .himself, no more than he knows the strain on the main spring of his watch that will break it. ' But there comes a time when it breaks?a click a snap, and the watch stops. Men break down in this way. They go on day after day, the pressure bearing harder each successive day, un til the vital force-gives out, and the machine stops. It is a great pity that the ?ndicat?lps of this state of things cannot be seen beforehand, and if seen regarded. It is one of the last things, that men will admit to thejBff?lves, much less /to others. Tfcey flatter (themselves, that it is onlya little wea "ritf?sT?f the flesh, which will pass off with a few hours' rest, when, in fact, every nerve, power,- and resource are exhausted, and the system is driven to work by sheer force of will. When the oil on the shaft or in the oil-box is . ex hausted every revolution Of the wheel wears on the revolving part, and soon will ruin it. The same is true of the human body. * How Flour is Made. Flour was formerly made by simply grinding wheat at one operation to the finest possible flour, and then separating by sieves the flour from the bran, ne cessarily grinding in much of the bran with flour and discoloring it, while much of the very best material was separated with the bran and lost. The latter com mon method is to grind very coarsely. J Ms^ftt^eT?raTtimes, usinfg strong blasts of air between each grinding to separate the bran from the gjranulated interior portion, and at last crush it to the floor, relieved of all the brstt. The new electric method consists ia passing the middlings under revolving lard-rub ber cylinders, electrified by contact with sheepskin. The particles of bran fly up to meet the rubber, from wh ich they are turned off in a side channel, the purified middling, freed from bran, passing through rollers to become fine flour. j Faithfulness to Employers. There is no greater mistake * young man can commit than that of besing in different to the interest of his eityloyer. It must be admitted that there Ire cir cumstances under which it woulfl seem to be almost impossible to feel ain inter- j est in an employer's business ; jbut* for all that, it is worth a trial. Be faithful in small things, be attentive to your duties, shirk no employment ths * is not dishonorable, feel that your em* ioyer is fairly entitled to every minute^ of the time which you have agreed to gjfre him for a stipulated remuneration. The wages may be small?too small ; bnt if jjou have contracted to work for a dollar aj week, when your work is worth ten, sjuck to your bargain like a man until your term of service has expired. It may seem very hard, but it will instil the greit principle of being true to your word. ! truth ( feed The sting of reproach is the tjruth of it. Dare to be true; nothing can lie. Modesty has more charms : than beauty. {? Idleness is the hotbed of ig^rance and vice. \ Heaven never helps the mam who will not act. j A kind *No' is more agreeable than a rough 4 Yes.' What we make our trust, God' often makes our shame. Hasty tempers, like hurricanes,\often do irreparable harm. ! If the heart is good, the manners of a person will show bis heart. The greatest evidence of demoraliza tion is the respect paid to wealth. 1 No one knows what he can do till he is fully resolved to do what he can.; A torn jacket is soon mendedt but harsh words bruise the heart of a c;hild. Lay by a good store of patience; but be sure to put it where you can firvid it. Christianity makes men and women more gentle, loving and true. It gives them humility and strength to ensure the struggles of life through which they are called to pass. j i??l?lli i Treatment of Bones. Bones accumulate on every farm, and a hunt for them will bring oat many more than one would expect to find. When properly treated, they furnish very valuable food for growing plants Whole bones, as they are thrown out from the kitchen, are so slowly decom posed, that they are of little use, unless applied very largely. They need to be broken up or made fine in some way that the large amount of phosphoric acid, etc., contained in them may be available. It is not practical for ordi nary farmers to have bone mills, and the next best thing is to break them up somewhat with an axe or heavy hammer, and mix them with un leached ashes, keeping the heap moist enough so the alkali will 'eat' them, and render the bones soft. The bones thus treated will crumble to fine pieces when dried, and are then ready to be spread upon the land. Every farmer should see that all bones are made into a valuable home-made fertilizer.?American Agri culturist for May. In the Poultry Yard. The young chicks will thrive best when kept clean and dry. Those hatched this month, if of the best breeds usually begin to lay early in the fall, 'and if kept warm and well fed, will give a supply of eggs through the winter. If the coops are placed in, or adjoining the garden, to -allow the chicks to wander freely through it, they will do little barm, until large enough to scratch up the beds, and nib ble at the plants, while tbey will destroy many insects. Let them have an abun dance of pure water and wholesome food; these, with good housing from ! the wet and cold, will secure health I and a profitable growth.?American ^Agriculturist for May. Let Your Light Shine.?We would be pleased to have the experience of progressive, intelligent planters whether of successes or failures. We learn as much from the one as the other, and we doubt not that a report of failures is more valuable to beginners than suc cesses. Disease is an effect, not a cause. Its origin is within ; its manifestations without. Hence, to core the the disease the cause must be re moved, and in uo other war can a cure ever be effected. WARNER'S SAFE KIDNEY AND LIVER CURE is established on just this principle. It realizes that 95 Per Cent. of all diseases arise from deranged kidneys and liver, and it strikes at once at the root of the difficulty. The elements of which it is composed act directly upon these great organs, both as a food and restorer, and, by placing them fn a healthy condition, drive disease and pain from the system. For the innumerable troubles caused by un healthy Kidneys, Liver and Urinary Organs; for the distiessing Disorders of Women ; for Malaria, and for physical derangements gen erally, this great remedy has no equal.

My friends and customers will bear witness of the large and stupendous jobs exe cured by me. It was at my works where the largest and almost only job of its class ever ex ecu ted in this city was done, viz : the making of tne pipes for the City Water Works in the year 1858. In the branch of BELL FOUNDING, I can say that I bave made the largest bells ever cast in the State, such as the bell for the City Hall in Columbia. My stock of patterns for ARCHITECTURAL WORK, COLUMNS FOR STORE FRONTS, is large and various, and in RAILINGS FOR BALCONiES, GARDENS AND CEMETE RIES I have the largest variety and most mod ern patterns; many of these are patented and 1 bave purchased the right for this State.

SAMARITAN NERVINE Cures Epileptic Fits, Spasms, Convulsions, St. Vi tua Dance, Vertigo, Hysterics, Insanity, Apoplexy. Paralysis, Rheumatism. Neuralgia, and all Nervous Diseases. This infallible rem? edy will positively eradicate every species of Nervous Derangement, drive tbem away from whence they came, never to return again. It utterly destroys the germs of disease by neu tralizing the hereditary taint or poison in the system, and thoroughly eradicates the disease, and utterly destroys the cause. SAMARITAN NERVINE Cores Female Weakness, General Debility, Leocorrhcea or Whites, Painful Menstruation. Ulc?ration of the ?terns, Internal Heat, Grav el, Inflammation of the Bladder, Irritability of the Bladder. For Wakefalness at night, there is no better remedy. During the change of life no Female should be without it. It quiets the Nervous System, and gives rest, comfort, and nature's sweet sleep. SAMARITAN NERVINE Cures Alcoholism, Drunkenness and the hab it of Opium Eating. '- These degrading habits are by far the worst evils that have ever befall en suffering humanity. Thousands die annual ly from these noxious drugs. The drunkard drinks liquor not because he likes it, but for the pleasure of drinking and treating his friends, little thinking that be is on bis road to ruin. Like the Opium Eater, he first uses the drug in small quantities as a harmless anti dote. The soothing influence of the drug takes strong hold upon its victim, leading him on to his own destruction. The habits of Opium Eating and Liquor Drinking are pre cisely what eating is to alimentiveness, as over-eating first inflames th? stomach, which redoubles its cravings until it paralyzes both the stomach and appetite. So every drink of liquor or dose of opium, instead of satisfying, only a As to its fierce fires, until it consumes the vital force and then itself. Like the glut tonous tape-worm, it cries "Give, give, give 3" but never enough until its own rapacity de-, vours itself. Samaritan Nervine gives instant t relief in all such cases.

It is the purest, safest, and most effectual alterative mediana known or available to the public The sci ences of medicine and chemistry have never produced so valuable a remedy, nor one so potent to cure all diseases resulting from : impure blood. It cures Scrofula and all scrofulous diseases. Erysipelas, Rose, or St. Anthony's Fire, Pimples and Face-grubs, Pustules, Blotches, Boils, Tumors, Tetter, Humors, Salt Rheum, Scald-head, Ring-worm.

By its searching and cleansing qualities it purges out the foul corruptions which contaminate the blood and cause derange- : ment and decay. It stimulates and enlivens. the vital functions, promotes energy and ? strength, restores ana preserves health, and infuses new life and* vigor throughout the \ whole system. No sufferer from any dis ease which arises from impurity of the -blood need despair who will give Arcs's - Sabsapabilla a mir trial. It is folly to experiment with the numer ous low-priced mixtures, of cheap materials, and without medicinal virtues, offered 'as blood-purifiers, while disease becomes mots firmly seated. A yes's Sabsapabilla is a medicine of such concentrated curative; power, that it is by far the best, cheapest, and most reliable blood-purifier known. Physicians know its composition, and- pre* scribe it. It has been widely used for forty years, and has won the unqualified conn* dence of millions whom it has benefited. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
