pB" The election yesterday paused off quietly,
Isa wsa rattier a surprise In aome respect* lo the
|iriqi|«. At a Ute hour it waa discovered by *cv.
eral of our legal men that under the Constitu
tion ol the Stats the Aral Wedncadity in January
was the regular day for the choice of all county
officers. The voting up to that time had Wen
conAned exclusively to the randiJatea for Sheriff
and O«ron«r, under iW *|>ccial eall of thethvli-
nary to All those vacancies. Many thus were
depiived of the privilege of voting for Tax Col
lector ami Receiver. The friend* of the present
locumbenU, however. Mcaera. lit- ding and Oli
ver. promptly rallied to their aupport. Mr. W.
It. Hixson'• name was aU<i announced for Tax
Receiver, and Mr. Ilavhl Brown for the office ol
Collector.
The remit terminated in the re-elcclion of J
M. Redding for Receiver, and (». W. Oliver Col
lector. Mr. Jamea Buchanan, *l*o, waa chosen
Sheriff of the county, aud I’. L. Mix* Coroner.—
The vote was m follow* :
i Tub Tm ni. Fotomi.v Tout.—It waa our priv-
I ilege to listen to an excellent nnd well consid-
I wed dietsmreon Sabbath last, delivered in Ih#
I Baptist ohuroli by its worthy Pastor, Her. John
L. L'ndriwood.
The theme selectetl from Luke l.Mb chapter
ami — rirse, •• Take heed and beware til cor-
etmisneea." was most npprupriatn lo the times.
bull not covet." is one of the great
cotnuamL ol the moial law, mm! is rr|ieated
likewise in the gospel of Christ.
Men however do not usually apply the lesson
to themselves, lait assume that it ia meant to In
clude tin* case of lb* sordid miter, and other lu
sts ce* ol alike heinous character. But the Sa-
iotirwa* addressing Ilia own disciples; men
ho had cmlnicd pcisecutiou and left all to fol
low Kim. Yet even within this select circle the
insidious vice had entered, hence the admonition
bewarr of coectmtsaMi which ia Idolatry."-
Various writem translates covetousness to mean
Ivt, (jelling moucy without reference to the
means employed ; 2d. The morbid desire to nc*
umulatc wealth ; 3.1. The men* love ol money.
But the laet of three may be **id lo oovor them
all.
The miser delight* in hi* hoard, merely for tlte
pltuure of arcing nnd counting it. Whll* the
spendthrift, wbuscatter* his dollars with lavish
profuarne** oh every side, ia equally coveloua of
more, that he may continue to minister to his sp-
prliles and pamiou*. So with those whoa* ava
rice ia |vompl*d liy ambition, Uial they may win
position and eminence among the magnates nt
the land. Nothiug is more seductive than this
cling.
Covetousness may ho regarded as the einbodi
men! of aelAshneee. Th* law of God says you
should not desire the properly ol your neighbor,
lid tide is intended to include the pcor also.
Indeed they are Specially enjoined to beware
of this teni|4ation
Idly. The great criminality of rovetou«neea.
It is the ruling sin of the church. Individuals
who prosper In their plans and grow rich, ara
congratulated and cheered on nil aide*, even
though the truth lie |wtent that instead ol pay'
ing their tithes into the Lord's store house, they
have Imasly drfhtudcd ol Ills dues, th* Author
of their being, and worshipped mammon alone.
With pain the speaker waa forced lo say that
even In our own community, church members
too frequently covelttd the miserable pittance
which wax doled out for the support of the gos
pel ministry. To use your means thus, was con
trary lo Ciod's command and in contravention ol
Ilia glory.
The blbte was full of illustration* ol the preva
lence af this vice in all ages. Thus Balaam's
■poelaay ; Ute sin of Achan ; the falsehood of
(lehaii; the money changers in the tempi* ; the
Pharisees, and Judas the betrayer ol bia Mailer,
all scent lo show that covetousness was a beael*
Mng sin even in ancient lime*.
The love ol money ia the monster sin in ev
ery rank and gradation ol life. *• Beware of cov-
ctuuau*«s, which is idolatry." Young men let
not the dream of wealth and tichea rob you of
the heavenly reward. Remember the young man
in Bctipture, who lacked one thing only of nb.
taining the kingdom ot heaven. In good old
Runyan’* pktote of the Pilgrim's Progr-aa, those
who tarned aside from the way to explore the
silver mime af the Kill Lucre, never, never re
turned, iiul were lost to all eternity.
Covetousneai is destructive of the fidelity of
tbe church. From this cause the gus|M-l was not
pretched. ckunh-a were closed, aud spiritual
leaiinca* cast its bliglitning influence over the peo
ple of Cod. Outsiders saw ami mad* us* of this
degeneracy in the church, to cloak their, own
wh-kedneM and misdoing*.
Ilow important then that l!»e church should
purge itself Irom this deadly sin, nnd begin in
cat not lo labor in the M i*t-r'* service.
Mr. I'udenrood waa suffering front cold and
hoarseni-w nud could not, therefor*, |wotract l»i>
remarks. Suffice it to say his strictures were
hold, truthful nnd to the point All felt their
just new* and power, and we venture to say, few.
very f*w of his auditors could refrain Irom a
p- raotial application of the lemon Inculcated.
Bewsr* of cuvctou-meas ; it is the ban* of the
rhureh, and the cum* of mankind.
