More Truth Than jPo
'try*
BY AN EX* FELTON ITE;
Come till ye toiling musses* of every
rucfl nnil color,
Ami let iiH reason a while, of matters
and (lungs together
About four years ago, together we
did band
To vote for h i Independent, and burst
a ringisli elan.
The thing it was performed, to our
whole heart’s desire,
' n I the n-masters, if any, did to

as you a;e horn;

And \v"ii.. oig majority, to Congress

A.ud the.' io o II the toiling masses
that fir. Felton i« the man;
Alter wnieh he wants to meet, the
“de ;r oplo” all alone
(Viol leli to tin in that lie’s complete,

Oh you honest men of every eolor,
how can you wink or nod,
And tuierale aiioli slanderous words,
il Lien d by a man ot Quit!
Win) could hluinc him to want to meet
his friends nil alone,
That lie might uao his bitter slang,
against an innocent one.
No wonder that in the heated term,
lie declines to discuss
When he intended to stamp the worm,
and wallow him in the dust,
It does seem, and I would guess, it
tu be a certain fact
That Felton intended to demolish
Lester and doit behind his buck.
How can the Dootor sympathize with
ail tlie people now,
When a rail lie never split,nor u fur
row did lie plow,
lint was taught to preach God’s word
that slavery was Ii is will
And from the fruits thereof, his beb
ly he should till.
That, was the very thing, that
prompted him to secede
And caused so much orphttnage, and
widow’s hearts to bleed,
And now ho can slander his victims,
from his very heart
And sneer at these empty sleeves,
and say it is all a farce.
Come lot us now remember, well that
poor old orphan hoy,
To whom mattock, axe and the wedge
was once his Christmas toy,
With which ho hud to work and
strive, a living to obtain.
For his mother and his brothers and
his sisters to maintain.
• While Felton of all his luxuries, sap
ped from a silver spoon,
Hard toiling for a living, was Les
ter’s only boon,
While Felton was seceding and dis
rupting Union ties,
We heard Lester’s warning voice, uud
the sound will never die.
When we remember well to-day of
reading his warning words,
Tlie voioo ot thopeople must be heard
secession is a dangerous road,
Although good men us ever lived,
wore tlie cockade, in tlie hut,
Hut tlie warning voice of George de
clared, there was danger in that.
Aguin to all who are opposed, to tlie
nominating pluu,
Did you not know you are support
ing ono oi that very clan
Conceived in secret by cardinals with
out knowledge or of your uid,
By county oflioe-seekers the whole
tiling wus made.
They ounnot even now withold, but
are beginning tornako the threats,
That Felton county oilicers next time
they are determined to elect,
With us i hey all did bund, to help
to burst tlie ring,
And now that very clan, has turned
to be that tiling.
Lester’s sympathies are with tho poor,
dnd from them he will not depart
.Felton said four years ago, Leste^
hud an honest heart
So come now my bruve boys, of every
race and color,
We have broken np one ring and let
us break the other.

Many a physician 1ms gained hie
practice by one patient telling others
of his cure. Tell your neighbors
that you have been to the hospital of
Jesus uml been restored, though you
hated all manner of meat and drew
nenr to the gates of death; and may
he a poor soul, just in the same con
dition as yourself, will say, “This is
a message from God to me.” Abov-
all, publish abroad the Lord’s good
ness for Jesus’ sake. IL' deserves
your honor. Will you receive his
blessing, and then like tho nine le
pers give no praise? Will you he like
lhe worn in in the crowd, who was
healed by touching the he of his
arment, and then would fain have
slipped away? If so, 1 pray that the
Master may say, “Somebody hath
touched me,” and may you lie com
pelled to tell the truth,and say, “I was
sore sick in soul, but I tone! el li the ,
0 my blessed Lord, and 1 am saved,
and to the praise of the glory of thy
grace I will tell it; I will tell it,
though devils should hear me, 1 will
tell it and make the world ring with
it according to my ability, to tlie
praise and glor of thy saving grace.’’

It is rough work that polishes.
Look at the pebbles oil the shore!
Far inland, where some arm of the
sea thrusts itself deep into the bo
som of the land, and expanding into
a salt loch, lies girdled by the moun
tains, sheltered from the storms that
agitate the deep, the pebbles on the
beach are rough, not beautiful; an-
ular, not roundrd. It is where lung,
white lines of breakers roar, and the
uttling shingle is rolled along the
trand, that its pebbles are round-
id and polished. As ill nature, as
n art, so in grace; il is rough treat
ment that gives souls, as well as
stones, their luster. The more the
diamond is out the brighter it spark
les; and in what seems hard dealings,
there God has no end in view blit to
perfect. Ins people.—Dr. Quthvis.

“The worst unbelief of the present
day is not the unbelief of the infidel
who rejecls the Rible, hut the unbe
lief of tho Christian who accepts it
and is too lazy to read it, allows it
to lie diist-oovecpd «n the slndf,
neither knowing nor ouriug what it
contains. If he knew what it contains
he would show his knowledge; and il
cared, his Bible would not be neg
lected as it is. Tho unbelief of the
rebellious world is sad, hut how
much moro sad is the unbelief of
those who neglect the message which
tells of their Father's love, which re
veals to them a Saviour’s grace.”
Between parents and their chil
dren there is so great a society of na
ture and of manners, of blessings
and cursing, that an evil parent can
not perish in a single death. Holy
parents never eat their meal of bless
ing alone, but they make the room
shine like the fire of a holy sacrifice;
and a father’s or mother’s piety
makes all the house festival and full
of joy from generation to generation.

E. J. TOOP, 11 Domectio " Hiilldln|;, Now York,
Tlie most moral of us have soiled
our souls somehow. Wo cannot de
ny this honestly toourselves. There
are men who walk as very princes of
manhood among their fellows whose
inner lives are full of impurity.
God’s own methods are tlie best,
lie has provided the regular minis
try, the stated means of grace.
They are elllcient. We should not
underrate them nor dishonor them
by doubting that they furnish the
channel through which the heavenly
light and saving grace shall reucli
tlie consciences and ohange tlie
hearts of the people.
An exchange says: It iajustawfnl-
ly discouraging! Just about tlie time
watermelons begin to come in, the
poor man has to scrape every cent In
can raise to pay the tax on his dog.
Why can’t this dog tax bo collected
somo timo in the winter?
A Yonkers man calls his wife
Frailty, because Shakespeare says,
“Frailty, thy name is woman.”
None too complimentary to the
Yonkers matron, but not any worse
than tho Murray Hill man who calls
his wife a blasted idiot, and all be
cause bIio married him.
A good old farmer found himself
one day with his boy ot tho further
end of the row when tho diuner-bel]
sounded. Anxious to make every
step count, he commenced to hoo his
way buck, saying to the boy us ho did
so, “Thomas, do you ever think
about dying?” “Yes,” said Torn. “I
think I shall die pretty soon if I
don’t have seme dioner.”
