Thursday, February J, 1877.

WHEN we contemplate the liend that always leaves the door open behind him. we are persuaded there is a devil and that he is a hard worked individual.

IF the average caller at a newspaper office knew what an atmosphere of sulphur and brimstone he brought with him when he left the door standing wide open after him, he would not sin any mote.

GRANT is getting garrulous as he grows gray. His views on national questions' now that his term of oflice is drawing to a closc, and his signature is not needed to make a law, are about as able and interesting as those of any other horse jockev and bummer.

EX-SENATOR REVELS, of Mississipi a colored man. has been chosen President of Alcorn College, lie will accept the position. Mr. Revels was elected senator from Mississipi by the Republicans. In the ite campaign he stumped the state for Tilden and 1 lend rick/

IT is said that the Sultan of Turkey wants the aid of a financier to advise him how to escape from his present embarrassment. This is a chance for John A. Logan. lleisoutoffe job,®hrtd as he once said, he had studied finances for two weeks, and knew all about them.

WITH length of contemplation," comes increased satisfaction at the pissagb of the compromised plan for counting the electoral vote. By il the country has escaped .grave peril and a peaceful solution has been guaranteedCfa vexed problem. Had Grant attempted his Louisiana and South Carolina t'.ictics, on the whole oountry, and sought to inaugurate a President as he has organized Legislatures, force would have been met with force. Under the present circumstances no one will oppose the inauguration of the man whom the Arbitrators shall declare to have been elected, whether that man be Tilden or Hayes. The crisis has passed

SHERIDAN RIGHT FOR ONCE.

Gen. Sheridan was right about ex-Gov J. Madison Wells, and yet not more than half right, after all. He did not give Gov. Wells, halt so bad a character as that worthy has just given himself. His testimony given before the House Committee was such as could only have bden given by a rogue vyho leared that he might feel theiialter draw if he told too much. ^He w^s asked by the members if he could state the total number of votes cast in Louisiana, and he said that he had not charged his memory with it On other points he was just as marvelously ignorant. He did not know whether the action of the Returning Board in Louisiana, "had changed the result of the election" or not he did not know whether the Returning Board "threwout 10,000 votes" or not he did not know whether the}' threw out "a hundred or a thousand votes." He, the Chairman of the Louisiana Returning Board, testifying under oith, declares that he does not know things which are perfectly well-known to every intelligent newspaper reader in this country. He presided over the throwing out of votes and yet does not know how many were thrown out. lie counted out Tilden and counted in Hayes with his own hands, and yet he does not know whether "the result of the election was changed." This is bald perjury, and it is this accomplish rascal, who assumed to rob the people of the nited States of the right to choose their own President!

GRANT'S administration will fill a place in history altogether unique. The peculiar system of rewards and punishmeut which obtained under his administration will constitute a valuable chapter on "how not to roform the civil service." Let us indicate a few of the topics. The first might be called "Luckey's luck, or how

a spy

of the "Whiskey Ring" got a fat office." For the second we might have "Babcock the Blessed, or a safe burglars success in retaining office." Biographical sketches of Murtagh and Murphy, of Shepherd and Belknap and Robeson, of McKee and Hesing, of McDona.d and Avery and Bingham would be ol interest. And then the book might end with a recital of how those arch conspirators against the whiskev ring, Bristow and Wilson and Pratt and Yarvan were dismissed from office by an indignant President. "Let no guilty man escape" in antique type would make a gallant frontispiece. After reading the book ihe average citizen might be puzzbd to know which were the honest public servants and which the thieves.

V-

Tw© more guilty me.i—this time Br4oklyr. whiskey ring thieves—escaped by Presidential pardon yesterday, and yet there are people living who say that Hiram Ulysses is an honest man and meant what he said about letting no guilty man escape. If

mistake not

believes in Hiram.

WITH the settlement of the Presidential question there is a good prospcct that business will revive. Such a result would be a great blessing to the country at large. During the past t'iree vears there has been much want and not a little suffering among tlie poor people of the land. Wages have been verv low, and work has been scarce. Manv who were willing and anxious to work at almost any price, have not been able to secure employment. These three years of stagnation, have made serious inroads on the little savings of honest workingmen, and it has often been a difficult task for skilled mechanics and artisans in all trades to determine how to make botrt ends meet While their wages bave been decreased the prices of many of the necessaries of ]ife have remained at their old figure. Now, however, there is a prospect of a change for the better. With the settlement of the presidential questions, capital which has been lying '.die will seek investment. New enterprises will be projected, old ones will be enlarged, and with a feeling of confidence in the stability oiour institutions restored, merchants and business men will push tuade, which they have hitherto permitted to languish. It is also reasonable to cxpect that new activity will be. infused into real

estate and people of means will begin to invest, in that most permanent form of earthly possessions. The escape the Country has had from a direful calamity, may be expected to make people rejoice in their present condition, and after all business activity is the resultant effect of mental disposition.

At last at the comman 1 of God a mes-' senger from the camp of Moses came and said, Hold, all ye bitten Moses has erected aferpent of brass upon a pole.

The sister urges him to go and look at the cross, but he refuses she proceeded to it and as she looked she is inspired with new life. The fresh pure arterial blood one [more course through her veins she leaped for joy as she saw she was saved, and hastened back to her .brother but he was then too far gone for rescue. He did not believe in the remedv, and his lack of faith was his ruin.

Mr. Hammond spoke of the many people in Terre Haute, who are not Chr.stians, who tell him that they "wish the meetings well." They don't know that they are in danger. Such persons if questioned say of themsalves, "Oh I gj to church, I pay pew rent. I AM A VERY RESPECTADLE PERSON. My wite prays for the children. I am one of the best persons in Terre Haute Such persons don't know that they are bitten. They don't believe that thev must "be born again but they die and are lost.

There is another large class who acknowledge that they are sinful that they have been bitten but they deny the sufciency of the cure.

Why should they doubt don't we know it? Are we who have tried it not SURE that it is true?

Suppose I should take a ride to-mor-row morning on horseback, and that while I am somewhere on the Wabash, I should come across a lilmp of gold.

Now suppose that I, being something of a chemist, should pour a little acid 011 it and satisfy mv.self that it was gold. I would fill my pockets with itand.go back to the

and exhibit it to the proprietors. Thev would not believe it at first. But suppose I should take the bankers and the lawyers and the doctors out to look at it, and should test it. and- they would pronounce the gold good, and the mine in which I had foindit, genuine. Would not those hotel men believe it then? Why not believe in the sufficiency of this Godgiven cure? I know it to be true and Mr. Sterrett knows it to be trae Mr. Abbey knows it to be true Nr. Darwood knows it to be true (and then pointing out into the audience, he said:)

would be on, "The nature of faith," into the three heads as follows* (1.) Belief that the subject if relieved. (2.) That the remedy is sufficient. (3.) That it may be applied to any ca. however desperate. Around all these his remarks would cluster.

Continuing on the subject of Nicode mus he dwelt on the persistency of Christ in insisting that if Nicodemus did not be lieve in carthlv things told him, much less could he have faith to believe heaventhing*.

Passing on, he spoke of the case of a lady in southern Indiana, who attempted to convert her husband. He declared that he did not believe in re rival nonsense, or excitement. He believed in Hume, and Payne, and Huxley and inen of sense. One evening his wife told him of the e'oquence of Dr. Nettleton, who was then conducting a revival. He promised that if he was eloquent he would go and see him, as he always delighted in hearing a fluent speaker. Nettleton had a wav of repeating his text yery frequent ly. lie brought in the text,

"YF. MUST ITK CORN AGAIN."

at the end of evening sentence like the snap of a whip. He did tnis so frequent lv that the lawier became disgusted and took his wife out and

CU'USED NETTLETON FOR A FOOL. 1 Ic declared that the man said nothing but. "thou must be born again."' As he proceeded home he repeatedthe wordover and over again mocking the manner in which Nettleton had done it. But every time he did it the words burned deeper and deeper into his own conscience he not knowing it until he went to rest. He could not sleep. All night he lay thinking of those words

THOU MUST BE HORN AGAIN

and in the morning sought put Mr. Nettleton. begged his pardon, and accepted the Christian faith. By way of illustration he mentioned the case of a Westei ira 1 and tu sons who wbrked on Sunday and swori and outrageously broke all of the commandments of God. There was a missionary in the neighborhood who had labored long, earnestly, and with disastrous' failure to convert them.

One day one of the sons, John, was out in the'field and was bitten by a rattlesnake. His frightened, brother tried '16 lieve him, but could not, and then tire poor fellow sent to the village and called on the missionary to pray for him.

The excited missionary dropped upon knee* and said: V'** id

GOD, I THANK TIIEE FOR ftATTLESNAKES. 1'v May they-1 speedily^jite Jim," too, and the old man that they may all see the error of their ways, and repent." "Now" said he I do not wish that rattlesnake bite you, but I DO hope that all yob Nicodetnuses will be brought to the Taithr. The, children of Israel itr their exodus from Egypt complained loudly of their hardships in the wilderness.

The answer'we all ftnow: God' uild not tolerate such ingrathucfe:' There were 3*000,000 of people as mtich 'as in all London. The flying feerpfint tehtfered the tent of a family and forced its' fangs a chifd and therf into'ethers almost in"stantly killed them. The sight presentea was a most heart rending one. We can picture it in oiir own mind's evs.

MR. RYCE KNOWS IT

ALL THESE GENTLEMEN LIARS.

Are they all fools? Is not their evidence good? A third class think they are to far gone to be saved. They forget that while

there is life there is hope. He relateu in detail the remarkable CONVERT ION OF CHARLES RUYOER,

A JEW,

of Chicago, the son of a rich London banker. lie would never forget a praverthatRuyder offered. He said: "Oh Thou God of Abraham. Isaac and of Jacob, if Jesus Christ be the long premised Messiah, help me to believe in him. Pausing in this story Mr. Hammond stated that what he said was

LITERALLY TRUE.

He called God to witness it. In conclusion he offered a prayer.

EACH SENTENCE WAS REPEATED AF. ER HIM.

The prayer was as follows: Oh God, op:n our blind evet. That we ma see Jesus lifted upon the cross for us.—

Pleading for us— Yea, for me even me a guilty sinner bitten by a serpent.—

Be .nercilul to me Oh God, a sinner. Only for Jesus sake who loved me and gave himself for ine,—

Who bore my sin:. How can I ever love thee enough, dear prccious Jesus, for having loved me so much as to bl.-jd and die for me

Now I give tny?elf to thee. Oh God, change these hearts by thy spirit, and give me a new heart.

May I be bom again this very night— Hear me no while I pray to thee in silence.

A silent prayer was offered and then with music Ihe regular meeting was declared over and the inquiry meeting began.

THIS MORNING'S MEETING. The attendance at the morning meetings is incerasing, as this morning bears evidence.

The theme of discourse was "The Relation of Faith and Works the text was taken from the seventeenth cnapter of Exodus.

Mr. Hammond described the fight with Amalek. Moses, Aaron and llur went to the top of the hill. When Moses prayed in faith, Israel prevailed when he did not, Amalek. Christians must continue in prayer.

He described an activc conflict he once had in Kansas during the warm weather. The streets were narrow, and every-body had their windows open, and

A MINSTREL TROUPE

was performing opposite. The anr.oyance was very great, of jurse, but still greater when in the evening the band attached to the troupe would come out onto the *eraida and p'aj. He stated that li: finally went into the streets and preached and with such effect that tw,o or three THEATRICAL COMPANIES WERE JJROk-

ES UP.

One manager afterward testified that his wife had been taken Away by being converted, and that he had hated Hammond for twelve long years, but came •himself, into the meetings and was converted.

One of the theatrical leaders was converted an- went to 'Michigan to seek the salvation ofhis father. Christians must do something for those who will not or cannot come to the meetings.

OPEN AIR MEETINGS.

must be held tor the masses and that soon, tod. H$ 1 e'ated instances of remarkable success achieved through^such meetings elsewhere."

In iS6i, I went to Hamilton Canada. Religion was in a low condition. Three of.the ministers in "that town had not spoken to each other for a year. The meetings began, Christians came to the services, but sinners did not. Something had to be done. If sinners would not come where Christians were"*".'

CHRISTIANS MUST GO TO TkifeM.

Open air meetings were appointed. Theeveninpr was damp and cold. I went but no one else came. At the place a cabman offered a cab for a ride not wishing to hire, and remembering that my master, had once preached to a Congregation of one woman, wno in turn prcachcd to a city

I SAT BY THE DRIVER'S SIDE

and told him of the love of Christ for his soul—A new story to him as he was never in attendance on church.

Mr. Hammond paused here to remark that a year afterward I went back and on stepping from the train a man took my satchel and placed me his cab. On remarking that I did not wish to ride, he replied that I di 1 not recognize him. but that he was the man to whom I had preached Christ on that damp evening a year before, and that my words had but blessed to the salvation of his soul.

On meeting the Christians I told them I had been at the open air meating the evening berore, but they had nof. They were

SHAMED INTO SERVICE,

and a glorious work was the result. Yes, faith and works mnstgo together. lie gave another, which he said was an illustration twenty years old, bu* to the point, as follows:

Two men, one a Hyper Calvinist the other a Hyper Armenian who were always debating on Faith and Works were being ferried over the river Tag-. The

old ferry man one day after starting be-] gan rowing with but one oar. The resuit was that that the boat simply turned around, hut only drifted to sea. The men called out to him to use the o.her oar, too.

JHe changed, but the boat only turned the other way and made no pre gress. On being asked why he did so, he turne* his oars over. On was painted Faith, on the other Woiks. Both were necessary to progress neither could be laid aside.

Mr. Stevenson has written a Sabbath School book, on the title page of which is "Ora et Labore" so Christians must pray and work. When the sun shines those objects which are away from it, do not reflect his rays so when Jesus shines, those Christians who are away from him, and "••ho depend on faith alone to save them, will not reflect his rays.

None need say he is unabie to work A noted •.

INFIDEL BLACKSMITH^

who was able to compete in debate with anyone, attracted the notice of a minister who sent a Deacon of the church to talk with him. The Deacon spent a night in prayer and in the morning went to the shop, approached the blacksmith, but alas! his prepared speech all left him. and he was only able with tears to say:

I am greatly concerned for your soul. He turned and went home in sorrow: But, to his surprise, the infidel blacksmith soon followed him and said "Sir, I am greatly concerned for my own soul." The deacon's weakness, faith and willingness to work was owned and blessed of

TO HELP GOD?-

In the Cincinnati revival, over 5,000 souls were brought to the savior. A rule was made that only those Christians who would work in the inquiry meeting should be permitted to attend the morning and afternoon meetings, in order that sinners might not be crowded out by

LAZY, DO-NOTHING CHRISTIANS. No such rule is made hire, but we do wish all christians to understand that they should and must work.

A few short prayers were Mien fie rod for blessir.gon th.- laSir? of the day, and for direction regarding th: open air work.
