The old fire and courage of their iracderic; shepherd ancestors began to show themselves, and a race of soldiers was ready for leader and for conquest. God had a re a a read? for tha place. Of all tfco men outsida of his own family Joshua had teen cearest to Jdotes, sharing all Lis trials, knowing all his Tlac. and trusted ty him in izsportact military crises. II a wa3 "Jlcses's minister," or cecstant attendant Thonj:h r-ast aicbty fete, ha was in the prime c pbyiieal acd meutal ttrenpth. He had shared ith the people over forty years oi their bocdga in lis j it, sod had cron with the cation's prowth in the forty years cf th wanderings, and lecaae of Lis pre-em;nent fitness for it be was iod 'a choice for the successor of Moves.

'But with Joshna at the Lead, and the descendvftnts of Aaron io the priesthood, they continued to be a religions democracy, where ach man lsd the opportunity to eain the f.rst places of power, and yet they enjoyed all the benefits of that ideal government a penuiae theocracy. Joshua seems to have teen by nature somewhat self-distrnstfnl and slow, bat once seeinc clearly his way, be showed the grandest leadership. The phrase is several times repeated.

P., in Treasurr. There are two methods of dealing with the depravity end wiekeinens of mankind. One is the method of Jesus, who went about doing pood from supreme love to. and delight In, positive spiritual goodness; hating and condemning the corruptions of society, not from bitterness of spirit toward tad men or from pleasure in condemning wrong, but from a recognition of the intrinsic dignity o! men. though sinners, and from love to tbtn as capable of being made th subjects of ideal goodoeis. The other method is prompted by the spir.t of the world. It looks mainly at the depravity and sins of sinners, denounces wickedness in the spirit of denunciation, exposes sin wi;h a secret sense of personal superiority, and condemns men from the love cf condemnation. This unchristian BDrit finds it way into the pulnit; and not a few ministers expect to convict men of sin by portraying sin, to deliver them from evil by exposing evil, and to turn them from wrong to right mainly by describing and condemning the wroog. This negative method, as I may properly call it. is contrary to tr.e gospel method. Commonly it proves a failure. Kven when followed by a measure of success it results in warped specimens of Christianity. Opening the Heart. I knew a little boy whose heart was touebed by a sermon cn the words, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock. My mother said to him, when she noticed that he was anxious: "Uobert, wnat would you say to anyone who knocked at tbo door of your heart, if yon wished him to come in!'' He answered: ' I'd say, 'Come in.'" ffce then said to him: "Then say to the Lord Jesus. 'Corns in.'' The next morning there was a brightness and joy about Kobert a fsce that made my father !k: "Robert, what makes yea look so glad acd joyful to-day?" He replied, joyfully: "I awoke In the night, and I felt that Jesus Christ was still knocking at the door of my heart for admittance into it. 1 said to Him, 'Lord Jesus, come in!' I think lie has come into my heart. I feel happier this morning than I ever was in all my life. How ungrateful acd wicked in me to keep Him waiting outside so lor.g!'' ll;iv You a Itoy t fpare? The saloon must have boys, or it must shut up shop. Can't you furnish it one? It is a great factory, and unless It can get 2,000,000 boys from e.icb generation for raw material, aome of these factories must close out, and its operatives must be thrown on a cold world, and the rnblio revenue will dwindle. "Wanted 2.000.000 boys," is the cotice. Oce family out cf every fite tnmt contribute a boy to keep up the supply. Will yon help? Which of your boys will it be? The minotanr of Crete had to have a trireme foil of fair maidens each year; but the miootanr of America demands a city full of boys each year. Are you a father? Have you given your share to keep np the supply for this great public institution that is helping to pay your taxes aud kindly elerttng public officials for you? Have you contributed a boy? If not, some other family has had to give more than its share. Are you selfish, votine to keep the saloon open to gricd np boys, and then doing nothing to keep up the supply? Itellgintta Notes.

CARL SIDC7S, Op. 200. 1S83. - They need a succession of like actions, whereby a habit may be formed; the things which they are to love, or to perform, they cannot eoueeive as insulated and detached. Whatever we are to repeat with satisfaction must not have become foreign to us. Goethe. The soul lose command of Pelf when it is impatient. Whereas, when it submits without aranrmur, possesses itself to peace, and Ood is with it. To be itcpttient is to desire what we hsve?not, and not to desire what we havw. When we ncqoioee in an evil it is no loaeer such. Why make a real calamity of it by resistance? i'eacedoes not dwell "iu outward things, but within the soul. We may preserve it in the midst of the bitterest pain, if our will remain firm and submiMive. Peace in this life springs from acquiescence even in disagreeable things, not in an exemption from suffering. Fenelon. How very homely the Savior' talk came with His disciples in consequence bis desire to cheer their hearts. Why, talks, I have oftn thought, lust in the way bOof be ta which any one of us would have talked to our children when denirous to encourare thera! There is nothing about the Savior's language which makes you say to yourself, "What a grand sreech! What a rhetorician! What an orator He is!" If any man makes you say tbat of him. suspect tbat be is off the lines a little. He is forgetting the true object of a laving mind and is eeekioc to be a fino speaker, and to imprese people with Ibe idea that he is saying something very wonderful and saying it Very grandly.

To the Editor cf the TnllanapoMi Journal: As Rev. Frederick S. Huntington was so soon to become a citizen of Indianapolis, as pastor of the Mayflower Church, it will ba of interest to his friends cf that church end to others outside of it, who knew Mr. Huntington, to quote somewhat at length from the published accounts of his life and works. The following extracts ere from the Zion Herald and the Hampshire Gazette: A career cf bright premise in the ministry was cut thort by the death, on Sept. 4. by typhoid fever, at Amherst, Mas., cf Rev. Frederick S. liuntineon, a nephew f Kisliop Huntington, and a brother of Key. Dr. W. E. Huntington, dr-an f the College of Liberal Art., Boston L'z.iverity. Mr. Hontinetn mas a graduate of the State University of Wisconsin, and of Cie School of Theolosrr, Boston University From to 1SSO .Mr. Huntington served with great acceptance the "Church of tte Incarnation," in Brooklyn, N. Y-, of the Kefermed Kpiscopal denonv.uatiou. (ten. Stewart L. Woodford an ardent friend and parishioner of Mr. Huntington during his pastorate of this cflurch. Dr. Theodore Ij. Cuyler an 1 Dr. Joseph T. lfuryea were his reijhbors and pereoLal friends, giving Liia ccdial fellowship and eccouracemei.t. la lb0 he joined his older brother for a year's study aud travel in Kurope. At tbe University of Poru he came into delightful friendship with Ir. Chriatlieb. cttew visiting this distirik'u Led professor in his study a?id accompanying Lim upon b:s walks, as vtll a listening to his lectures and nniversity sermons with great pre fit as a faithful student, llis fctudics wre all in the line of his ministerial work, to which he had consecrated l is life. A part cf the same year was. spent at the University of Oottir.gn, where he took a course of lectures by Professor ScLultt. Enriched by this year of varied experiences in the old world, laving gained a mastery of the German language, and having taken deep draughts from tLe fountains of hiitory, theolocy and philosophy, ha returned with new vior and enth'uia?tn to the work cf the ministry. Since h;s graduation from the School of Theoloiry, he has been pursuing steadily a course cf philosophical reading, a provided by fcoston University, for the decree of doctor of philosophy (Ph. I.) 1 Lis decree h had almost- won, Laving read all but one or two of the required works. Mr. Huntington was possessed of unusual social qualities which gained him friends everywhere, snd aoon endeared Lim to the parishes Le served. JIn opened their hearts to him freely, drawn by the warmth of his love and abundant human sympathies. While by thtso qualities he was socially beloved, no one really knew Mr. Hnntirgtoa rntil he saw him in the pulpit and heard him preach the gospel of Christ. Here was his power. A fluent, graceful extemporaneous speaker, many of tLe f trotwt and most eloquent periods oi Lis sermons were net founa in his manuscript. Fur nearly five yetrs past he has been 5: ator ot the t ongregational (.nurcb in W orthmrrtcn, lass. Mr. Huntir.rton's work for this church has been marked by singular devotion and success. His term cf service was a'wut elosirg when the deadly typhoid poison struck at his manly vior ar.d at lat overcame. He was to have gone to a promising Congregational Church in Indianapolis, but a more commandiug voice called him to tbe ampler fields of Kervirn which lie bey end all earthly interests acd bounds. While he felt himself possessed of powers that might have had a larger t-cepe. he was never a discontented worker among the bills. He thrjw himself heartily into the interests of the parish, whether it was planting tr es to adorn tbe puolic way, or planting a library to inform aud elevate the public micd. He was foremost in the enterprise, reaoy to labor and to give for thf general good of his people. Bishop Fallows spoke very truly in his memorial address upon the lifo and work of Mr. Huntington, of the. chief characteristics by which he is known and remembered, his lova of nature, his love of human nature, bis love for study, his love for truth, h's love for souis, his love for Cbrint. Certainly each one of these distinctive affections Le'ped to make rp the richness and beauty of this noble man. And such a character moving freely through tLe family and parochial life of WortLington for five year cvuld not fail to be a wonderful stimulus and hlessiug. Those who have been with Frederick Huntington in the deep aud solemn experiences through which hie eoul Las passed into its final victory know well that the secret spring from which his own abundant and fruitful vitality was fed was notLing less full and quickening than his Saviour's heart. . 'Iasajre of the gospel and visions from tbe Apocalypse Lave been in my mind," he said, a few hurs before the end. In response to a question as to tho firmness of his faith tipon tbat death-bed, he replied, "I have preached Christ too long and lived to close to Him not to trust Him now." With eyes nndimmed by tears, and with smiles and rejoicing in face and voice, he passed into rest and triumph. We trust we violate no propriety in quoting the following expressive sentences from a private note from bis brother, I ean Huntington: 'Our dear Fred has been taken to the other .world, after a short and severe coutlict with typhoid fever. Only thirty-six years old. eneaged to be married to a beautiful young woman of Worthiagton, just closing his five years of successful ministration to the V.'orlhington nock, about to be settled over a promising church in Indianapolis, he seemed to be rising to the fall renith of his powers and entering into the richest period of his earthly life. But, with a full conscious, ness of all these things, be welcomed the announcement on Tuesday that he could cot recover. Smiles and not shadows were constantly noon his face.
