Bftwa^^,, wh?re^, ?if a record . iog;*nge2-could be stationed at some convenient jK>int to note the visiting done by minister and people there would be stir from the minister to 1 Vi one from any member of bis congre ?t| g?t?om "Bot it is a pastor's duty to visit'and took after his people." So ?t is and~it.ie ? people's doty to visit and encourage, their pastor. "Who has an easier Hfe than a minister? be, lives'on the fat of the land." Noori? Tn the whole Church has a harder^ more laborious Kfe than the minister. Iiel every one examine, their oven hearts and ^ie if ?hey would or .couid doone third as well ; assume his en? tire respoosibility, ,that of fringing: hatreds, of reciless^ way ward souls t?/*be Cross"; feel the anguish of his . own sQulfas he prays in his closet overtbe ?ns,ofa hardened and stiff necked.1 people > watch h im pori ng over-a sermon in his study while you are^out enjoying an evening's enter? tainment-a sermon that perhaps he has'8^ent^hdnr8 in studying and pray * ?n^5vc^?tO;Be 4ettvered;to a eongre gatn^n^ot one-third- of whom remem? bered to ask God's grace in preparing f their sinful hearts to receive the truths setvlorib iojt, aofl to enable them, ly their earnest efforts, to advance ibe-cause bf Christ; thereby assisting and encouraging their pastor. After a revival, when some seem awakened to a sense of their delinquency, and arCreaBy anxious io" lead a better j> nd ' pao?Kfe, who will stretch forth aband tb water the good seed- sown by the tired minister? How many when they realiv feel;thaf 'they need the prayer and counsel of"their pastor will go to him, pour ont their hearts and ask bim to pr?y with and for them? There is nothing more calculated to draw out - a pastor's entire love and sympathy, thia for'his flock to show unrestrained confidence in him, I f he looks sad and dejected, perhaps overIhe sins of hi* people^, who will 4?0 to him with a heart fulT of pity and enquire of the anxioss .look and. speak words of cheer? It is doubtless true, that tim? idity on the part of some will keep back these wortrs of sympathy, never? theless it ? a duty God intends ns to perform. **Bear ye\ one another's burden and so ful Bli the law of Cb Hst " ? ' How'roany mothers will stimulate their sons and daughters to ? sense of1 duty, by telling them they not only do their duty to their Heavenly Fath? er, bat they. encourage their pastor? What a responsibility rests upon, him, how tired he must feel at times? - And with all these cares upon him, /he. is often-the subject of unkind re? marks. Could be hear all it would make-him feel that earthly friends are few.. Another remark we have act? ually~he?rd from the Hps o? church members is, "he is a vety good preach? er Ibrrtchfo&s, of course he knows how to court their favor." jf jon are poor, don't be too sensitive and nar? row-minded to feel that he is your pastor, and that through ci rc um st an- j ces of your ows, you are deprived of j h? society more than those who have ] means and leisure. Perhaps when; your pastor calls, if instead of meet- j ing him with a look of embarrassment ? and trying to hide that you were at | work you could not well leave, you j give him a hearty welcome, ask bim ! hack into your dining-r<?om or kitchen, j and let him talk to you while you I work, his ? visits would be more ire-1 quent, and to all more enjoyed. Treat L him as your intimate friend and advi? se, and what is seen and beard will ] be as sacred as what happens aronnd j his o\^ji ?reside. MEMBER. | Rev. Sam Jones. This powerful and great Georgia j evangelist arrived in this city yevster- j day, and will begin a two-week's meet- j iog at Bethel Church to-day. What- I ever bis success may be here, oue j thing is certain, he will not lack for J crowds to hear bim. After be has j preached here3 once cr twice, the only j difficulty wilt be getting into the church j and obtaining a seat. Mr. Jones re- j gently conducted a protracted meeting j for L>r. Ta linage tn his Tabernacle in ? Brooklyn, and it is said that he shook that moral Sodom to its very fou oda- j tiona. Among the many pulpit pro? digies that bare been born to Metho dism in a century, there nave been none j with Mr. Jones' peculiar gifts. ' He is j unique, ? he'.is * sw generis; there isl nothing like him in the history or tbe | prophecies. He is to the church what | Kdgar A Poe was to literature. He j bas * bidden power. He imitates no j tuan and no mao eau imitate bi ti?, j Mr. Jones bas a romantic history Up ! to the age of twenty-five, he was one j of the . worst men in Georgia. He neither feared God nor regarded mau. He was a slave to rum and its appur? tenant vices. His reformation was sadden, positive and complete. He comes before bis congregation as a personified brand snatched from the burning, and * be does ; not mince or shrink from bis pre-conceived ideas of doty when it comes to the use of terms. He is about thirty-six years old, and a man of Soe physique. He possesses tbs powers of oratory to a remarkable ?agree, ao4 ao mao, saint or sinner has ever yet complained tbat be preached-, too long. Mr. Jones* piety,- ?ke bis power, bag -never been questioned. Charleston, Stv.tdny Dispai?^, 15f?. ? Mornix g by Morning. Moses instructed the children of Israel not to leave over, until to-nror row, via una. gathered .to-day. But some of them did not hearken, and 'left of it until., the mornipg, and it bred worms and stank ; and Moses was wroth with them.' It will not do Ifor one to neglect to feed bis soul on the spiritual bread of heaven for a' single day. However exalted bis wor>bip or full bis heart , was of love, joy, and peace yesterday, he needs a fresh and ample supply again to-day 'Lord give us bread, not stale but fresb bread.' once prayed the renowned Berridge He was right. 'Give us this day our da ily bread,1 is the law for our spiritual well beiog. We may have sat together with the Lord's people around the Lord's lia? ble yesterday, listened to an iustructive and inspiring sermon but these bless? ings will not suffice for a week, not even for forty-eight hours. One may remember a bountiful feast enjoyed last week, but such remembrance will not satisfy present hunger. This law ap? plies to the soul as well as to the body. Again the manna bad to be gathered before 'the sun waxed hot, or it melted. So at the beginning of the day, before temptations arise, see that the soul is fed and strengthened. There h? danger in delay. Are there not many Chris tiaos with leanness in tfceir souls be? cause these two rules are not observed 7 We be li ever the laws of the spiritual life and growth are as definite and inflexible -as those of physical human nature. Every morning the Savior would , press, the inquiry: 'Children have ye any meatT Every day be would have his disciples * watch and pray lest they enter into temptation.* Bay by day, little by little, htep by step, we grow up unto the full stature of men aud women tn Christ Jesus. Lottery Generals. To the Editor of the Philadelphia Times : I witnessed to-day the draw? ing of the Louisiana State Lottery by Geo. Beauregard and Gen Early, by their own hand's and eyes, and fingers, and body, lt was a strange sight to look-at these two men, whose names can never be obliterated from history while our language ss written, standing each at a lottery wheel opening the. prizes, and numbers and proclaiming j them as drawn from the wheel ' of for? tune! Great God I ,The hero of Bull Bun and Early in snob work! I sat through the entire drawing of the lot? tery-two hours-abd, to my surprise, these two distinguished Generals not only superintended, but manipulated all the minutest details of the drawing Early emptied ten enormous bags of ballots, con tain in g '100,000 n um tiers; into the monstrous glass wheel of for? tune, six feet in diameter, while Beau ? regard poured. t?o diminutive bundles of 2?000 prizes into the other wheel. A blind-folded boy-and Beauregard tied the handkerchief over bis eyes, as Esrly-^did over> the eyes pf bis wheel bo v-d re w the pellets and banded each to the great Generals. At intervals of fifteen minutes Early would growl : ""Turn thc wheel ; change the boys Two negro men advanced and wheeled over this 100.000 ballots, and it took ali their strength to do it.-. Early .opened each ballot handed to bim by the boy and announced it. A crier stood by bis side, who repeated Early's figures in a loud voice. The same with Beauregard, who announced only the prizes. But what a sham all this is ! This mechanical work as conducted by the great Generals is honest. Tbere can be no question of it. The scheme of tJie lottery is the thing wherein lies the swin? dle! And of this the poor, deluded ticket-buyers are ignoraot. .This .lot? tery is Louisiana"s shame and it ]mon? ela tion should bring all honor, grati tude. glory and patronage to the Phila? delphia ZYmes. i. s c. NEW ORLEANS. Feb.' 10. A Temperance,View of It* If the working people of this coun? try want to know why they have' hard times every few years we can tell them. It is not over production nor undercon? sumption, as those phrases are common? ly employed. If they had kept the ?900.000,000 they spent every year for strong drink in their pockets for the past five years of good times, the pres? ent temporary lull in manufacturing and business activity would find many of them able to bear it without being pinched for the necessaries of life lt is the overconsumption of whisky thar makes the underconsumption of food and clothing in tais land of liberty and liquor. The anoual bill for bread, meat, cotton and wollen goods of this gre'at American people foots up a total of about ?1 400.000.000. In other words it unnecessarily drinks ?150. 000.000 worth more than it necessarily eats and wears. A?d the people who commit this folly every year are amazed that once in a few years they are hard up, and some of them want to hoist the communistic red jag and destroy every? body else's property because they have wasted their own share of the national substance iu rye juice and other riotous fluids. An Old Soldier's EXPERIENCE. "Calvert, Texas, Maj 3,2882. " X wish to express my appreciation ot the valuable qualities of Ayers Cherry Pectoral as a cough remedy. " While with Churchill's army, just 'before the battle of Vicksburg, I contracted a se? vere cold, which terminated in a dangerous cough. I found no relief till on oar march ve came to a country store, where, on asking for some remedy, 1 was urged to try A YEE"3 CJIERRY PECTORAL. "I did so, and was rapidly cured.
