A COLORED CAMP MEETING.

BROTHERS HINTON AND J. FROST AND THEIR PECULIARITIES AS SKETCHED AT CAMP MEET*

ING—THE SINGING OF THEIR HEARER8.

New York Sun.

RED BANK, N. J., Aag. 24.—Brother Hinton, tbe presiding elder and bead ol the camp meeting at Morford's' Woodsl is not popular with tbe colored members of bis flock. "He ain't got no idee uv maklu* money," said ex treasurer Frost, '-and he tries to make tbe camp meeting to) religious.

This outspoken condemnation of tbe Dominie was drawn out by his announcement that there would be a meeting on Saturday afternoon, but none that evening. John Frost and tbeotber Bland owners bad bought many baskets of peaches and bottles oI beverages in anticipation of a "crush" alter marketing hours on Saturday, and to their astonishment tbe Dominie made the public announcement that there would be no meeting in tbe evening, and said, privately, that be was going to a neighboring meetlug, where be "beard dere was a presbus outporing of de spirit." "Why don't you hold a meeting in bis absence?" Sister Anderson was asked. "Ob, I nesber could." she replied. "Er I done dat de brudder would 'fer jarges agin me at de quarter conference. He's de bead one here, an' he known it—'deed he does. But I s'pose tie can't per went me from ezzorting or prayln' or a singin'—dere ain't nothin' 8-ii down agin that. 'Sides, b'leeve you're right 'bout de money. De pocketbooks is open on Saturday, and de money goes ea^y when dere's plenty and it once gits a goin'."

But the rain descended at night, and the conspirators against tbe authority of the presiding elder were thwarted. Ex- treasurer John Frost was nailing up a new table in his tent before tbe atternoou meeting and while Sister Anderson stood ne*r, and he swore—roundly aud earnestly, and without any attempt a:. an apology. you," he said to a boy that let bis new table lid fall and break, "you tiik aliout de education ob de culled people! I's my opinion dey got too much cultiwashun and too little r*ntfth." "Brudder," said tbe old preaober woman, solemuly, "I don' know'syo' need ldicHibun, but a lettle mo' faif in Jesus wmld be good fer yer."

No -ody ever gets very cross at John Frost, for he is a power among his peoe.and controls the colored vote at elec-

.IIS—a

fact that the white politicians

are not unaware of aud Frost profits by. He is full of humor. Once when an Aminadab Sieek among the tbe worshippers at the grove offended him by airing bis mock piety, Frost rejoined: «•().», you use yo' mour in de daytime a taking 'llgion, and yo' brains in de nigh*' time to ealterate bow much you kin steal widout aittin' cotcbed."

Brother Hinton's sermons are models ID tbeir way. He gave out tbe text from •the fourth chapter of the book of St.

Mark and tbe third verse, which reads: '-tfsrkeu behold, there went out a sswer to sow.', Tbe young white people laughed at tbe pronunciation of tbe words which made tbe text. "Hark and behol' dere went out a saw to saw." The Dominie is seusltive. He paused and said: "I am astonished in a is yer Bible l*n' to find de Bible not at all 'speoted. I see before me, a laughin' a id a whlsperln' young women what net bad thousands spended upon their e.idications, and yet dey come here to 'spose detr tguunoe. Please don't make me any mo7 trubble. Ef you want to go a oourtin' go home an' do it. It wexea mo. "Did you ebber notice," tbe Dominie a*ked, "how people forgit God You'll bear one farmer a boast!n' and a bragsin' 'bout what he done In corn, and Another one 'spreesin' conceit 'bout his oats. What dey doneT 'Deed dey done nothin'. Dey forgitde great sower.

Man's made outrn earth, ylt be aim like earth nor de things ob de earth. You say, 'What is earth, ole man? I know some ob you study phraseology and comperhend the original ob earth. Well, the difference of man and earth Is—didn't de Lord take man an' lean down an' breave into his nostrils You didn't never heah of God's breaving in to de nostrils ob anything else, did you? Dere's de whole thing other things wax made, but man was created. "I think," the preacher went on, "de mos' animated thing in the Bible was when de three 'postles dropped delr nets and followed Jesus 'thout asklnj how much wages he could 'ford to pay Acksbelly leT deir father Zabedee and de hired man and didn't know what dey was a goin* to git. Many ob you no doubt has read Dr. Wataon's Bible Theology Dictionary—have studied and mused ober it, ah' you mos' reokleck de man whoee robes was so spotless dat he oould shed sin an' it couldn't touch him. He lef eberythlng an* followed Jesus. Show me a man what'll do that an' I'll turn 'roun* an' show you an'

an' haal you up-ab by head,do« you? Xo!

s'taint

what aint logic alnt to be depended on." Tbe Dominie may not have intended to flnuh his sermon so suddenly, but one Of the women in the ringers' seats "got the power" suddenly, and sent her thrill falsetto voice ringing through the grovel .M fs

Oh, didat ole Pharsoh *11 las' ob ,«?iisw6ys»w

In de Red Seat

Out of the middle of this chorus, at its last repetition, there grew very mysteriously another totally different song, one picture suooeeas another in what are called "dissolving views." A very interesting struggle ensued between the friends of the first song, who had many verses left unsung, and tbe singers in tbe back seats, who bad all things *agalnst tbeir effort to start the new tune, except their strong lungs and loud voices, and these carried tbem to victory and gained tbe adoption of that old time favorite:

Meet me at tbe gath'ring Will you oceet me at the gath'ring? Will you meet me at tbe gath'ring? Will yon meet me at tbe gath'ring

I'll meet yon on that day. Brother sees a mote in his brother* eye', But can't see the beam in bis own. You go tiomq, sweep out your door,

An'leave yo'brother alone. Will yon meet me at the gath'ring? I'll meet you on that day.

They said that John the BapUn' fj|s Nothing but a Jew. The worn of God Informed us

He was a preacher, too. W111 you meet me at the gath'ring?

I'll meet you on that day.

The next song had a rollicking min strel tune and chorus: Ob, what a hebben I belong to!

Oh, what a hebben I belong to! Oh, what a hebben belong to! I belong to de Union Band. There was the usual little interruption plainly put, about "lifting de ban' ob oppreshun irotu offin de church," which was followed by tbe tour of tbe elders behind their baskets and the rattle of silver and coppers that acoompanled them. The last song, not oounting several that Brother Hinton called "Sankey-Moody hymns." was the most popular of all, because the white people were familiar with it:

Don't, don't, don't yer git weary: Don't, don't, don't jer git weary: Ohh, don't, don't, donYt yer git weary

Waltin' on de Lord. Keep yo' shoes upon yo' feet, Den you shall walk de golden street. Don't, don't, don't yer weary. What kine of shoes duz de angels wear Dat dey can walk upon de air Don't, don't, don't yer git weary. Debbll's mad, He los'de soul Don't don't don't yer git weary

I am glad.

He los'de soul he fought he had,

I remember the day, reckleck it well, When my po' soul nung over hell. Don't, don't, don't yer git weary. When I sit there 111 be able to tell How I shuBneddatdlzzermul hell. Don't don't don't yer git weary. I heard a rumblin' in de sky ah, Den I fought my end was nigh-ah. Don't, don't don't yer git weaiy. Tell yer what, sinner, yon better begin, Gates'll shut quick anryou won't get in Don't, don,t, don't yer git weary. De hebbens will roll up like a scroll, Old earth will 'gin to reer and to roll. Don't, don't, don't yer gtt weary. Yesterday it was definitely announced that tbe Red Bank meeting is to have an end, or rather a new beginning in another place. It is to be merged into tbe Conference camp meeting that was begun yesterday near Ooean Grove, twelve miles rom Red Bank. It was said that Sunday's jubilee will end tbe meeting in Morford's Woods, if the rain does not interfere, and the preachers, worshippers and choristers will meet tbeir brethern and sisters of the neighboring churches on the more central grounds. This decision is not approved by tbe colored people generally, who hoped that the meeting might be continued another week, "because," as one of tbem said, "der's as much religion and more money heah in Red Bank."

EMPLO YMENT.

Tbe following jast sentiment was uttered by Daniel Webster, in a speech in tbe Senate of tbe United States. It should be held in everlasting remembrance: "Sir, I say it is employment that makes the people happy. Sir, this great truth ought never to be forgotten it' ought to be placed upon the title page of every book on political economy intended for America, and such countries as America. It ought to be placed in every farmer's magazine and mechanic's magazine. It should be proclaimed everywhere, notwithstanding what we bear of the usefulness—and 1 admit the higb usefulness of cheap food—notwithstanding that the great truth should be proclaimed everywhere, should be made into a proverb, if it oould—that where there is work for the hands and tbe men there will be work for their teeth. Where there is employment there will be bread And in a country like our own, above all others, will this truth bold good—a country like ours, where, with a great deal of spirit and activity among the masses, if they can find employment, there is always great willingness for labor. If they can obtain fair compensation for tbeir labor, they wtll have good houses—good clothing—good food, and the means of educating their families and if they have good bouses, and good food, and means of educating their children from their labor, that labor will be cheerful, and tbey will be a contented and bappy people.

OK! MY REEL! *T Detroit News.

A newly married wife, returning from her wedding tour, with her husband, to Fort Wayne, Ind., met with a painful accident on the Canada Southern railroad last night. They had disrobed and were oosily lying in the lower berth of a sleeper, when tho occupants of the car were horror-stricken by bearing the young wife give vent to a series of piercing shrieks. There was a general commotion, and the conductor pushed aside the curtain to see what was the matter. "Oh! my heel I my heel!" she cried, witbjshrleks of pain "something's run into my heel." The husband was beside himself with anxiety and grief, but like the rest of the passengers oould not imagine how bis wife was hurt. Finally, assisted by several ladies who hustled on tbeir clothes, an examination waa made. It appears that the lady had hung up her bat in the berth, and a large ornamental pin, three indies long, bad beoome detached by the motion ol the oar and fell at her feet. Ia extending her limb suddenly the pin had ran into her heel about two inches, causing ex* quUlte pain. To add to her troubles, the husband tried to pnll It out, and it broke off. The conductor telegraphed ahead to St. Thomas, and on the arrival of tbe train a surgeon waa in waiting, who, after and hour and a half's work, out open the heel and extracted the pin. T^e couple will get more laughter than svmpathy when tbey get home to Fort Wayne.

An exchange has an article on "Languor and its Cure." A good bulldog at your heels will care it quicker than anything else. But this ia not tbe remedy prescribed by the newspaper,

TERRU HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAUL

WAIT FOREVXtU

A PRETTY RHINE LEGEND.

Once upon a time there lived beside tbeRbine a beautiful voung lady. She bad a lover who loved her, and whom she loved in return. But, after be had woed her—not one year, but three—be asked her to marry him and she, anxious to show her power, merely answered "Wait." "I have waited three years," he said, "but at your bidding I will wait one more—just one more."

Then he went away and became soldier, and praise of hia bravery filled the land but the lady was piqued by the thought that be had been able to leave her for even a year, and wbeu he returned Bbe determined to punish him, though all the while she loved bim well.

He knelt at her feet, and took her band in his, and said: "Lady, I have come back to claim you for my wife."

But all she answered was "Wait longer a patient waiter is not ft lo86r "I will wait two years longer," he said, calmly. "If I do not lose all is well."

Then be left her again. She had hoped that he would plead with her, and that she would be forced to change her mind but now he was gone—gone for two long years. How she lived through tbem she could not tell but tbey passed, and again her lover was before her "I have waited patiently," was all he said.

The lady yearned to cast herself into bis arms, but pride was strong within her. "Wait longer," she said. "No," he answered. "This is the last time. If I wait now I will wait forever."

At this she drew back haughtily. "Then wait forever," she said, coldly. He left her without a word. And now her heart sank in her bosom. She wept bitter tears and repented in dust and ashes. When a year had gone by. she could bear her woe no longer, and sent her little foot page to ber old lover, bidding him bear this message, "Come back to me."

But thr message tbe little foot page brought was just this: "Wait." Again she was left to her sorrow, and two years glided by then once more she bade ber page ride over the mountains to ber lover's castle. "Tell bim I am waiting," she said.

Tbe page rode away and rode back. He stood before bis lady and doifed his cap, and repeated tbe message that bad been given him: "The patient waiter is not a loser

He is punishing me," thought the lady, and for two years longer she remained in her castle. Her heart was breaking—ber health failed—she knew that death was near.

Again she sent her cruel lover a message. Tell him," she said, "that I am near my end, aHd that if I wait longer before I see bim I shall wait forever."

The page returned, and stood beside his lady's chair. His eyes were full of tears his bead was bent upon bis breast he sighed and held bis face in his plumed cap.

The lady lifted her wan face. "Speak!" she said. "Tbe message!" "Alas!" sighed the page "I would it were a more tender one."

Whatever it may be, speak!" gasped the lady. "The only message that I have," replied the page, is 'Wait forever!'" "I am well paid in my own coin," said the lady. "At last I have received all my own answers back."

In a little while she died, and they buried her in the old churchyard, with a stone at her head and a stone at her feet.

When spring carne there was grass upon the grave, and there also was a new plant strange to those who looked upon it a plant with dark, glossy leaves that crept siowly but surely along, clutching fast to every rough surface it met.

There had never been a plant like that on earth before. Now we call it an ivy, but this is what those who saw it for tbe first time said of it:

It is tbe lady whom her lover bade to wait forever. In this form she is creeping toward his castle"blowly but surely. So she will oreep on until she reaches the heart she threw away."

Generations have passed from earth. The castle is a ruin, covered with ivy, and the peasants will tell you that it has crept there from tbe ladvTs grave, point by point, over stone and rock, through tbe graveyard and over gates and fences. You can trace it if you choose, they say but you do not try.

MATRIMOHT1AL ADVERTI8EMEJUTS. They rather out do ns in England in matrimonial advertisements, judging from the following, which present tbe matter with unique frankness to all desiring wives: "Ada Emily Jenny," just nineteen, fair blue eyes, and handsome, would like to be married as early as possible. "Rosebud," who is seventeen and pretty, having golden hair, wishes to marry a tall young man, about twentyfour years of age. "Violet" wants to be married to a tall man. She is tall and very good looking. "Lalla Rookh" would dearly like to be married. She moves in first class society, and has fBOO a year. She is eighteen, tall, and strikingly handsome.

Some of the applicants put the matter rather upon the ground of duty and destiny:

"Mary G.," who has good looks, bat does not wish to speak of tbem, wants to be married. She has read her Bible, and knows that marriage is the destiny and honor of woman. She is twentythree. "Catherine E. B.," who has dark brown hair and soft brown eyes, with pretty features and nice figure, wishes to fulfill her woman's mission and marry* She will have money.

THK Rev. Dr. Buckley, In a sermon at the Chautauqua campmeeting, on the irreverent mixing of religion and business, related tbe following story: "A man told ue that he bad bought an estate that be divided it Into sections, and he was sure that it was going to pay tremendously, and be had made ft a matter of prayer for four days as to who should have the last share. And he told me—I bloah to say it—that the holy ghost had revealed to him that I was tbe mantbat was to have the last share. Said I: 'If there waa no other holy ghost than tbe holy ghoat that taught you that, by my honor as a man, I would aland up by the side of Robert Ingersoll, and preach infidelity until I died.' And every man that took a share in tbe speculation that he referred to came to grief, except that man, and somehow or other he got out of it with considerable money.

Tax World refused to publish a mesa of trash telegraphed from Chicago to New York about the Bev. Dr. Thotpp son, last week, and mentions the fact, accompanying it with the very true assertion that "every man who buys newspaper containing a scandalous story, because he desires to read the scandalous Btory,- is himself directly accountable for its publication. The Her aid Bays:

Our esteemed contemporary, the World, we are glad to Bee, is falling into line in tbe matter of tbe exclusion from newspaper columns of what it rightly calls "social garbage." We reprint in another column an article in which the World speaks in tbe proper spirit of tbe wrong of publishing private scandals. We agree with our contemporary that the vulgar itch for notoriety often leads men, aud even women to rush to the press with their private grievances, and that a great deal of such matter is not sought for even by those newspapers who print it, but 1b thrust upon them. But this, after all, does not excuse the newspapers, who are bound to use discrimination and judgment.

Tbe World relates a story conoernln, the latest bit of social garbage, wbicl most men oonnected with the daily press will recognize at once as true and characteristic. "On Wednesday evening," it says, "a story imputing the most scandalous misconduct to an aged and eminent citizen was offered for sale in the office of tbe World as having been received by telegraph from Chicago, in which city it had been that morning published by the Chicago Times, It was declined by us for several reasons." If the public knew half or even a quarter of the extent to which the business of offering filth of this kind to the newspapers is carried it would be amazed and alarmed but not only that—it would give the great body of the press of this country far more credit for careful and upright conduct than it is accustomed to.

A COMMON FORM OF MATRIMONIAL LOVE. Boston Post.

The other night when a citizen was reckoning up nis acoounts his wife spoke to him several times, and receiving no answer, said: "You treat me cruelly. I fear you no longer love me," and the husband and father replied "I love you passionately, devotedly, frantically, madly—but if you don't hold yer jaw till I get these figures added I'll give you a clip in the eye."

WHY WE COMMENCE DINNER WITH SO VP.

Sir Henry Thompson.

Tbe rationale of the initial soup has often been discussed some regard it as calculated to diminish digestive power, on the theory that so much fluid taken at first dilutes the gastric juioes. But there appears to be no foundation for this belief. A clear soup, or tbe fluid constituents of a puree, disappear almost immediately after entering tbe stomaob, being absorbed by tbe proper vessels, and in no way interfere with the gastric juice, which is stored in its appropriate cells ready for action. The habit of commencing dinner with soup bas, without doubt, its origin in tbe fact that aliment in this fluid form—in fact, ready digested—soon enters tbe blood and rapidly refreshes the hungry man, who, after a considerable fast and much activity, sits down with a sense of exhaustion to commence his principal meal. In two or three minutes after he has taken a plate of good warm consomme, the feeling of exhaustion disappeas, and irritability gives way to the gradually rising sense of good fellowship with the circle. Some persons have the custom of allaying exhaustion with a glass of sherry before food—a gastronomicjno less than a physiological blunder, injuring the stomach and depraving tbe palate. The soup introduces at once into the system a small installment of ready-digested food, and saves the short period of time which must be spent by the stomach in deriving some nutriment from solid aliment as well as indirectly strengthening tbe organ of digestion itself for its forthcoming duties.

HOW THE CHINESE LADIES DRESS. From The Chicago Journal.

A

ji"

Lady Alcock has just giviflir reception at her London home to the ladies of the Chinese embassy. Only one gentlemen wan present this was the Chinese Embassador himself, who appeared very magnificently in an overdress of deep brocade. His wife and sister wore skirts of some red material, with overdresses, and long hanging sleeves of purplish black brocade, splendidly embroidered between the shoulders. The sleeves of one were bor dered with a broad band of magnolia satin exquisitely embroidered with white stocks and silver leaves the other had a band of pale mauve satin embroidered with silver and gold. The hair of both was drawn tightly back and stiffened with pomatum into a curious protuberance at the back, edged with beads and tinsel ornaments. Ornamental pins and red, violet and yellow flowers were worn also. A little child, the son of the Embassador's sister, wore an overdress of tbe richest Sevres blue brocade, intermingled with some lighter stuff: the head-dress was on a foundation like a skull-cap of stone-colored felt, ana was composed of beads and spangles.

The engineer of the train had succeeded in stopping the train shortly after she left the track, and backed the train up to see the result. When lifted from the wreck by some gardeners near by she laughed, said she knew her horse Fide could beat the freight train, and qiw»tit woman-like, fainted. She was taken to a dwelling near by, where she soon recovered. During the race the carriage was all the time about twenty-fire feet ahead ol the engine.
