THE CIRCUS.

An ImmmiBe Crowd (irootK First ClaftH Performance.

The circus arrived duly this morniug from Grcencastle before sun up and began unloading at the Main and Market streets crossings of the Monon. Hordes of small boys who had been up since midnight hovered around and gazed with delirious joy and admiring comment alike on the greasy bums who did the unloading act and the prirccly elephants who slouched out of the mammoth cars. The effects were handled expeditously and at an early hour were oil the exhibition grounds oil Hluff street. The crowd from the country began to arrive early also, and by the time of the parade was quite formidable blocking the streets completely at many crossings. The court house corner was as usual the gathering center and here one could walk about ou the heads of people as on an old cobble stone pavement. The parade as an unusually excellent one and fully came up to the wildest expectation of the most sanguine. Everything had an air of prosperity and promise liich induced scores to visit the exhiition in the afternoon, who had inereeame in to witness the parade. The music was the best of its class and the •owd thoroughly appreciated it.

In the afternoon a big crowd attended le exhibition and all were highly pleased with the performance. Everything was tirst class and the show was that was promised or expected, his evening's performance will be ift'eren* from that of this afternoon :tnd fully as good.

There lias been a wonderful deelopment in the circus in the last few ears and the aggregation now on the oad are really ''stupendousi.'Ji'f.They have brought the business to a high degree of perfection and magnitude. #£yet. withal, after the paegent has assed, and the droves of elephants, the speckled wihl boys and the chumps of clowns are lost to view, one cchoes 11 his heart the poet's longing:

PllINTKItS

THE SUCCESSFUL TEACHER.

The following paper was read by Mrs. John Hopper before the Potato Creek Sunday School Convention on Thursday, August 23:

In considering the subject, "The Successful Teacher," it would be very difficult indeed to determine who is the successful teacher. Success can not be measured by outward appearances. Many years intervene sometimes between the sowing and the reaping. Successful teaching, it is needless to say, demands preparation on the part of the teacher, for the purpose of the Sunday school is not to keep so many children more or less out of mischief for an hour on Sunday. It is not an institution to promote social intercourse among young people. Its highest aim is not to cultivate the intellect and promote good morals, but the all important object and aim of the real Sunday school is to secure tlie best spiritual results in individual lives. 11 scarcely needs to be said that spirtual culture will not be secured unless those who labor in this field of Christian endeavor are themselves given up to the service of God. A Sunday school teacher should .be more than a guide-board. He should be a guide. knowing well all the experiences of the soul, and the way from darkness to light, from si no to salvation. What wonderful, what glorious results would follow if all our faithful Sunday school workers would seek for such an experience of salvation as would enable them out of a full heart, to impart the n'eedfttl instruction in righteousness that alone can produce real spiritual culture. Without such a preparation on the part of the toilers in this part of the vineyard, there will come a thousand discouragements, and much weariness of soul (jud spirit. There will be the temptation to seek for ease and rest and personal indulgence at the hour when Sunday school meets. There will be a vision of giddy, care less girls, of indifferent, thoughtless young men, the soil of their human hearts will seem so hard, the prospect of good so dim and uncertain that faith will well nigh fail. And then, if the call is to toil among the poor and wretched aud ill clad and unclean, it takes superb faith, quenchless zeal and dauntless courage to say, "1 would rather take my part with God's dead who afford to walk in white yet spread his glory, than keep quiet here, and gather up my feet from even a step for fear to soil my gown in so much dust." We should not speak of help in God's work as a duty only, for it is a glorious privilege. Don't call it just a duty to teach in Sunday school. It is a privilege of such grand dimensions that all measurement is useless. To help one another or any cause, or fill any place in God's household, is a favor received more than a favor bestowed. Some one has beautifully said that,

To make one little note of love any where in God's great chorus goin up from his universe, whi'e it makes joy in the hearts of those listening to the song crowns the singer." If we were asked what are some of the requisities of a successful Sunday school teacher, we would say that every lesson should be carefully prepared before the hour for teaching, that a teacher should be always on time and faithful in attendance. Nothing so detracts from the interest of a class as neglegence on the part of the teacher. Most Sunday schools have not more than a half hour for that part of their work which is directly between the teacher and scholar. There may be cases when the clock goes slowly for this thirty minutes. It is hopeful when it counts away too rapidly the short opportunity. How shall we best spend the half hour? In preparation we may use hours, and yet feel we liaye not touched all the lines of research.

To make the lesson pleasant and profitable it is necessary to exercise idaptability and good sense to a liberal legree. And with each lesson one should make wise choice of the important points useful for spiritual application, rather than wind a too often tedious way through the ancient geography of the country, or attempt a too minute study of ceremonials, or other matters of minor importance. There is one thing, however, that every teacher can bear a part in teaching and thatis reverence in God's house. Whatever is associated with our thoughts of the divine Being should be treated with reverence. This applies to His name, His revealed will, the worship paid to Him and tlie place where He is worshipped. When Moses drew nigh to the burning bush to behold the strange sight of a fire which burned jet did not consume, a supernatural voice came to him from the midst of the perpectual fire saying, •'Put off thy shoes from off thy feet for the place whereon thou standeth is holy ground." So when Joshua, the great captain, met near Jericho a greater captain, even the commander of the hosts of Jehovah, he was told to take off his shoes. God's house is a place erected for His worship, and for his instruction in his holy word. The Christian church thus combines the ancient temple and the synagogue. T.:e temple was a place for worship the synagogue a placc for instruction. The

Christian church is a place for both worship and instruction. God's house, is therefore, unlike all other houses, it is a place set apart for the special service of God, and whatever interferes with that service has no right there. Our Sunday school teachers can do no better service to their scholars than to impress this truth on them. In a recent number of the Teachers' Jimriuil, the teacher is compared to the gardener who needs to spade deeper, that there are choking old. roots that ought to be cut into and removed, that the spade ought to be a lever to raise them out of the soil altogether. And so teacher, go deeper, there is a boy in your class whose conscience you have not disturbed, there is a girl in your class who needs a more appreciative sense of the nearness of a better life, go deeper, make plain the way into this new life, make luminous the

Christ before her, saying, "Heliolp the Lamb of God which taketli away the sin of the world." And here comes in a thought that has a personal application: can we aim at a deeper work in others if lacking ourselves? In. consecration let us go deeper. The motives that should dominate us arc the etern al welfare of our pupils. And what grander can be conceived than that of intluencing the young for good. Said an aged pastor, "If I were to repeat my ministry I would give my chief attention to the young." We can not do much with people over twenty-live

years old, the only way to do is to build the children into the church. See to it that the llrst years of their lives are wisely directed: and show by your dai life that example is more powerful than precept. In that great storm of terror that swept over France in IT'.i3, a certain man who was expecting every hour to he led to the guillotine, littered this memorable sentiment: "Even at this incomprehensible moment," he said, "when mortality, enlightenment, love of country,—-all of them only make death at the prison door or on the scaffold more certain— yes on the fatal tumbrel itself, with nothing free but my voice 1 could still cry, 'Take care!' to a child that should come too near the wheel: perhaps 1 may save his life, perhaps he may one day save his country."

So we think the successful teacher is the one who faithfully and conscientiously does his dutv and leaves the results with God. The lamented Spurgeon once said. "We eau not always be sure when we are most useful." It is not the acreage we sow but the multiplication which God gives the seed which make up the harvest. We have less to do with being successful than with being faithful, and from a treasured book we read that, "He that goeth forth and weepeth bearing precious seed shall doubtless come again with rejoicing bringing his sheaves with him." Do you not see, tired teaclicr, how the living seed must grow? Von do not have to furnish the life, only to plant the seed. What joyit will be in the -other life, if not in this, to find trees of righteousness growing in beauty because we were faithful in planting the seed. There is tnuch to discourage, it is true, but only when we look oil the earth side. Not so when we fix our eyes on the Lord of the harvest, and do our work as unto lliin. So, work on. pray ou, wait ou a little, longer, and meantime "Sow in the luorn Ihy seed'

HUMORING THE GREAT PETER.

Bow tlie Sovereign of Wortemb«rg Carried Out III* Little Joke. It seems that the czar, who lias determined on retaining his Incognito in traveling through Europe, absolutely declined to take up his quarters at tho royal palace at Stuttgart, but insisted on going to an inn. Having learned of this prior to his arrival, says the New York Home Journal, the Wurtembcrg sovereign caused all the hotel and Inn keepers to remove their signs. Over the principal doorway of his palace ho had a huge sign hung out stating that within there was cheor for man and beast at cheap prices, and that the name of the hotel was the Korligsbau.

On the czar's carriage and retinue entering the city the postilions, previously instructed by the Wurtemburg ofllclals, drove straight to the palace, and there, standing at the main entrance, was the sovereign, fat, burly and jovial, arrayed in the traditional costume of a bonlface, with a white apron and cap, eto., while the various princesses, princes, nobles and dignitaries of hiB court wero oostumed as waiters and witresses, ostlers and other servants. Peter the Great, greatly amused by this witty and kindly manner of humoring his wishes, entered thoroughly Into the spirit of the Joke, which was kept up until the following day, when ho proceeded pn his journey Noticing that tho postilion mounted on the wheeler of his traveling carriage was a man of singularly unkempt appearance, his clothes ragged and covered with mud, ho made a remark to one of his attendants that there wus at least no mistake as to the social condition of that man, and that there oould be no danger of his boing a nobleman

In disguise. And yet, when at the end of the first stage, the postilion came to the carriage door to recclve his gratuity and raised the cap from his head, the czar to his astonishment recognized in him the heir to the Wurtemberg throno, who had assumod this disguise for the purpose of speeding his father's imperial guest.

Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable physicians, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them.
