Bat Utterly the month of tbe preacher hath been slopped and hi* tongao hath to long refnasd utterance that a world of path os and no little umbrella znnat bo expended on thia prelection. Th« text, aa Elder Clifford taya, “will be fonnd atween tbe leds of tba Bible." Ton don’t believe It ? No, I dare say yon don't believe it. Few ever knew it and those that once knew have forgotten. D.d yon ever hear a sermon from that text? Did yon ever see a man who bad beard a sermon from that text? Did yon ever bear of a man who said be had seen a man who bad beard a sermon from that text ? No 1 and yon never will. The fact la, there are denominational reasons deal agin that text. Oar Presbyterian brethren, tbv/ have not got fairly settled in the Prom. f*ed I. ml yet. They have hardly crossed the Jordan. They are «tlll fighting the Amalekf teg, and tbe Hivitei, Parrix'tes, Hittltee and Jeb- nsitse. They are (till “Jadytzinp,” as old Dr. Pieroe «U* It; bnt when they get over into tbe New Testament, there they will find this text— eartln sure. Then a* to tbe Uethodist brethren, wbst would tbe amen and glory corner say to each s text as “Study to be qalet ?” Why, sir, they woo'd say it was death to all religion. And, If there were time, we might take all tbe denominations seriatim and ebow that thU text sren’d be like ginger in oblcken soup—it wonld “spile the entire bllln’.” There are, now and then, knots of beretloe eosttered about tbe earth— Q takers, 8htkers and oneb like—who have fonnd that text, and these are called tn derision “qnietlsta.” Whenever yon eee them yon mty know tbsm by tbelr clear skine, placid eonntenancM and mellow accents—showing that they are praotlclng and profiting by this text For when a man stndiea to be qalet—to restrain hi* appetite* and bis passions—bis tem per—bis tongne, and move along noiselessly nd hsrraonlonily In allhla social relation,, bis pbysioal as well as hi* moral condition im proves. There (a lass wear and tear npon him. He le like a well-made steam engine in good repair—he works smoothly, as well as power fully, and therefore works without loss. Bat one of yoar rickety old concerns which whoezos and oUttora at every breath, while it may oan- vsy a more vivid impression of power to a rus tle or a savage, wastes its feeble energies while living, and strides to final inactivity and death sritb every puff. Now we know it is very bud to “be quiet.' and that le tbo reason why wo are told to ktudy far that objeaL Yon will miss it often, and And yourselves rampaging aronnd when yon don’t mean to be. Old Adam will sometimes get tbe upper Jjsnd in spite of yonreelves. Yon may, sritb tbe boRt intention*, find yourself a noisy, scolding housewife; a silly, giggling maiden; alond and pretentions woman—fast and fliaby. Yon may find yourself a fretful, impatient man—litigious and quarrelsome. Perhaps (though that is vary low indeed) yon may degenerate Into a noisy bnlly. How many bnllies there ere in every place, and they are incurable nntil tamed by some quiet man. It ia the quiet man who is a terrible fellow in a pinch. It la easier to fight fonr bullies than one qnlet man. Worse than all this, if yon don’t resist tho devil strongly, yon may even sink into that standing nnivanoe—the so-called “lice man" in tbe post-bellnm flash language of tba times. That man la like pop oom in a bot skillet—be bursting ont miscellaneously liko a pack of Oblntso fire crackers and with as little good pnrpoae. He zip* round and ronnd and back and forth like a fiery serpent, in tbe noise and etnokeof bis own empty vanity and self-glorifi cation—with no better results and with aa per fect Indiffarenoa whom he hlls or bestlnks with fnlminationa. Tba true executive man ia never fussy man, and never a “live man” as under stood by the groundlings. Nolan and olap trap are no pert of hi, programme. He never spends bis breath or strength in ldlo sonnd or show. When a man swells aud blasters and strata and brags before the public, be aacnred bn is noth ing more tban a bass drum in tbo social marie— noisy, bnt hollow. Tbe man of energy and power ia always a thinking and a qalet man, and nasally a silent man. Now perhaps it ia for want of preaching on tbl* text, “ritndy to be qnlet,” that the world has gono so ciazy for tho put ten years in the matter of flub, foas, tawdry pretence, noise and impudent assumption. Perhaps tbe world wonld not be so far wrong if tbo boys nnd girls had only been tanght that every artlele In this ▼nlgar catalogue is wholly inconsistent with taste, elegance and attractiveness in the gentle woman and evnry manly charocterlatio in Ibe ruder sex. Bnt we cannot devote another line to public reformation in thia partienlar this morning. A Fleas'ni Incident—Be Liberal Year Psalsrr. Tba beloved and Tenanted pastor of the In dependent Presbyterian Charon In Savannah, Kev. Dr. Arson, was recently captured bodily by a coup dc main of his people, and sent, not to Coventry, bnt to Bye Baaeh. It seems this exemplary divine, though in failing health, and moch worn by bis labors, had pets latently re- fnasd to vacate hie pulpit this summer, and seek the repoee so greatly needed. Erery effort was exhausted in vain to induce him to do so, when his devoted charge resorted to the follow ing rose to achieve their objeet. Contrivicg to entice tbe Doctor and bis wife away from home on a given day, some of the ladies repaired bis dwelling and persuaded a maid servant pack np the wardrobe of the family. Upon re turning home he was met there by a number of his oorgregition, presented with a well filled parse, and informed that every arrangement had been made for his departure by the steamer then about to sad. So earnest were the good people, that tbelr worthy pastor, completely overpowered by inch kindness and affection, was forced to yield to their wishes, and they bore him eff In trinmph to tbe dseta of the steamer. He is now, with a grateful, tranquil heart, enjoying the sal: air and baths of Bye Beach, and we trust may be spared for many years of continned usefulness. The example of oar Savannah friends is worthy of imitation everywhere. Nor should the chmohea wait until their faithful ministers are exhausted in’ mind and body, and almost un fit for farther labor, before granting them that respite from duty whioh should be accorded at least for a few week i annually. We are all familiar with tbe trito remark that a bent bow moat be nmtrnng sometimes or lo3e Us elasticity. So it ia with the everlasting routine of work. There mast be timely cessations and seasons of repose and reoreatlon, or tbe overtaxed men tal and physical energies anoenmb nnder the trying ordeal, and premature dooay and death are the rennlL And he who faneies that the dnties of tbe ministry are other than arduous and wearing in the extreme, la greatly mistaken. A lawyer, senator or popular leotnrer requires weeks of previons natioe ere ha will adrentnre to appear before an andienoe. But the min ister of Christ ia required perforce to hare his several pnlpit messages ready each Vitek, and ia ever rnnnlng the gaontlet of pablio criticism, both as to moral and mental qualifications, single failure is as damaging to him aa to any other; fceneo the necessity for profound and oontinnons study, that be may be able to give his bearers beaten oil in the sanctuary. Then, too, mast be added tbe tremendous re eponaibilitiea attaching to the sacred office, and the outdoor work of a pastor whioh, at all times considerable, becomes in seasons of calamity and sickness well nigb overwhelming. It iz safe, then, to oonoinde that no class of men labor harder tban the taithfnl pastors of cbnrcbce; and inasmuch as they spend and are spent in tbe service of others, and enconnter many privations in their Master's cause, anrely they ahon'.d be dealt with liberally and tenderly by tho people of their charge. Remember yonr minister, lLcn, when wringing the programme for your own summer pleasures and recreations, and not only accord tus same privilege to him, bnt see to it that the means are provided to en able him to loave with a mind free from earthly oares and embarrassments. No oongregaticD aoting thus will be the losers either io this world’s goods, or that spiritual treasure which is beyond lha reach of thieves, and whero neither moth nor rost doth oerrupt An Uncommon “Experience!” A New York Son reporter has been down to “Knnkle’a Grove," near Rahway, New Jersey, for the purpose of attending a colored Methodist camp meeting. When there he fonnd seven preachers bnt no hearers. They oonld not tell “Jem what war de matter.” They had sent ont handbills and advertisements, bnt without ef fect. They bed alao seen red for the oeoasion an especial star, hailing as “tbo Rev. Barrow William Ford, the Blind Preacher, tbe World's Wonder,” but tbe star twinkled to no pnrpoae. Na body was there to see it. However, that the sacrifice should not be total, “Rev. Barrow William Ford" begged the reporter to listen solos to an exhibition of his powers, to which having oonsonted, the San representative waa har- rangned for the apace of half an hour “on the 4th chapter and 15th verse of da Soeond Chronl- oles : One sea and twelve oxen nnder it.” Bnt the chief thing romarkahle about Rev. Barrow William Ford was his rongh experience in Augusta, Georgia, and the miraculous inter position in bit behalf. This waa detailed in a handbill posted aronnd the grounds, and ahonld be copied in foil because it will be entirely new ia Georgia: TUB WONDER H EXPERIENCE. I was born in Prinoe George’s oounty, Mary land, September 15, 1S9G. At the age cf five years I was taken from my pirent, and said to Angnsta, Ga. There I remained nntil I waa twenty fonr years old, when the Lord laid His hand npon me and I was converted onto the Lord, ia the cotton field, about twelve o’clock noon. In 1S59 they passed an oppressive law forbid- dieg colored preachers from preaching, and for preaching from the eleventh chapter of Daniel and third Terse they attempted to hang me. I was convicted in the oonrt honse in Angnsta, 6a-, then carried to jail, fed npon bread and water for three week-, and had tbe pleasure to see them erect a gallows to break my neck. They placed a coffin In my cell over night. The next morning about 9 o’clock I was brought ont with the hangman’* cap about my head and the coil of the hangman’s noose aronnd my neck. I ate my breakfast on my ooffia. About 10 o’clock I marched np on the gallows. They naked me if I bad anything to say. I answered, “No; my communication is with my Father in heaven.” When the time waa expire.! they sajd, “It is time to hang the negro preacher. He has violated enr law. He shall suffer for it. He shall hang by the neck until he ia dead. Wbi'e npon the gallows I stood, tbe Gcd whom I serve delivered me. He breke the rope the first time; then they fastened it on me again, when I said, “Hear the beautiful poet: “My God! the epring c fall my joys, Tne life of my dslight— The glories of nr brightest days, And comfort of my night 1 “Fearlee* of hall and charily death, Til break through every foe: The wings cf love and arme of frith hhril boar me cocquerer through. Then said they,“We’U give him the last trial, and if be does not die, we will let him go." When tbe God I serve broke the rope off my neck a third time, and I heard a voice saying, “Loose him, and let him go 1" Then aaid the high ahenff, “Loose him ! he is free from lbs hand of death and the gallows. Go, preach ihe Gospel while yon live, and pray for all the cations." Yoora respectfully, Baaaow Wn.ms Foxn. A New Hmrmu editor has got rich by economy. He always writes his editorials on a slate. The Coronation of King Oscar. Drontbelm (July 19) dispatch to the London News. Tbs ooronntion of King Osoar has passed off brilliantly. Tho orown and tbe regalia were fetohed the evening before by the Chamberlains and tUe banner of the Kingdom, nnder the gnard of a hundred men. The Cathedral ires tastefully decorated, the whole floor being oov- ered with a crimson cloth. The oortege left the palaoe at a quarter past eleven, and proceeded towards the Cathedral. A wooden platform covered with red cloth wsb laid down in tho streets l ading to tbe edifioe. Eioh side was lined with soldiers and bine jack ets—tbe King being a sailor. First came two Heralds, the chief members of tbe Coart, and the members of the Ministry. Then followed depntations from tbe Norwegian and Swedish Parliaments. Tbe Royal cloak, sceptre, sword, and crown were eaen separately borne on red velvet cushion-. On* the right were Admiral Knap, of the N irw.-g-.au Navy, and Col. Hoff. On tbe left were Gen.-NatBier and the Chief Hnntsman Biron Wedel. The K-ng cam' next, in a pnrple cloak, aa a Prince of tbe blood royal, tbo Oaamberlaina holding his train. Bv tbe King's side was the Swedish Minister for Foreign Affairs. Over his Majesty was a canopy osrried by eight high offi cials. Ntx*. came tbe banner of the Kingdom, borne by General Wergeland. Then Prinoe Artbnr and bis staff, followed by tbe Knights of tbe Orders of St. OUf, the Ssord, the North Star, etc. The Queen was tbe next to appear. Her train was held by ladies of tbe Court, and on each aide cf her waa one of the Ministers. Other offlil&ls followed, aa welt as tba wives of officers in the army and navy and the civil oorpa, eta On arriving at the Cathedral door the King and Queen wore met by tbe B shop of Dron- theim, who said: “May the Lird bless year coming in and going our, for now and ever more." Music played, tbe prooeasion advanced np the nave, and the King seated himself on a throne to the right of tba altar, the Qieen sit ting on the left, each with their snite in attend ance. Aronnd the altar were the Bishops and clergy in tbeir robes. In the gallery above the alter on the riebt were the foreign diplomats andotfiuira. On the left the ladies. Tne crown and the regalia were plaoed on tbe a'tar. The aerrioe commenced by the Bishop of Dron- thelm giving ont a psalm, whlob waa aung by the ohoir, tne mnsio being very good. The Bishop then preached an impressive sermon, taking hia text from tbe 84th Psalm, 10th to the 13:h verse. Then a clergyman chanted the Litany, the responses being given by the ohoir. More musio and singing followed. At the words, “Take now tha Crown,” the King came forward to tbe throne plaoed before the altar, with his snite, and tbe prinoely cloak was changed for a regal one. He koelf on the enshion and uncov ered his chest. The Bishop of Drontheim touched him on the forehead, breast, temple 0 , and vnata with oil from tbe Gold Horn of Sal vation, saying, “Hay Gcd’* Spirit and Grace ever watch over yon, and give yon wisdom of tbonght and charity in yonr royal sottoos, there by glorifying God’s holy name, and establish ing troth and justice, and the people and coun try's welfare." The King returned to his seat, and the Min ister of State took the crown from the altar, and assisted by the Bishop plaoed it on the King's head, sayiog a short prayer. A herald now stepped forward In the oentre, and raising his staff exolaimed, “Now King Oscar tbe Seoond is King, him and no other. Everybody answered, “Long live King Oscar tha Second 1* Then followed a grand flourish of trompeta, and a srinte of 112 gone. The King locked wall, and bad a very dignified bearing. After another psalm had been sang, he retained to his place, bowing to the officials. The two Ministers who conducted the Qieen to church now came forward and led her to the throne, her train being held by ladies of tbe Court. Tbe same oeremony then took place, excepting that aha was annotated merely on the forhead and wrists.. After being crowned, the herald proclaimed. “Now Sophia ia Queen of Norwuy, her and no other.” There was a flunr- Uh cf trumpet.;, ard tbe people cried, “Long live the Queen!" Her Majesty returned to her seat, and, after a few prayers and psalmt, tha procerslon returned in the same order to the Palace, the rcyal couple wearing their crowns and insignia. There is to be a grand d’nner at the Palace to-night. On Sunday the eifz in* give a ball to the King. On Tneaday there will be a review. On Wednesday the King will give a state ball.

She burned off Ohattartoa landing, where there is no wharf, tba passengers and freight for that point being discharged by small boats.

Her passengers registered, when abe leit Washing ton, 110, bnt she received and discharged pas sengers at various landings of whom no record was mads. The orew consisted of twelve. The loss probably fifty passengers and two of the crew. Tbe cause of the fire ia unknown. As soon aa the flames were diaoovered the headed for the chore, bnt struck on a bar on Ihe Virginia side: Many ladles and children were aboard visiting friends sojourning at plaees of resort don the river. Al»o many eo ored people. Ten bodies reached the wharf—five are nnknown. AH aooonnt* appl&nd the gallantry of the oaptain and orew. WawMtrt Holocaust—Captain's Report. Captain John R- Wood’, ootnmauder of the Wawaaset, is burned ronnd the neck and ears slightly. Hia aooonnt ia substantially aa fol lows: “The fire broke ont at 25 mi antes past 12 o’cluok, betwten Thorn-gut and Chatterton. I waa in the pilot Lon ,a at tne time. A fireman came and told me that the boat waa on fire br io*. I immediately oame ont and fonnd the dimes reached qnite to tbe hurricane deok and the walking beam. I ihm saw that it wus im- possible to get to the life boats, whioh were on after quarters on each aide, to lower them, though they were fall of passengers. I threw water on the wheel ropes so as to keep her steerage all right, and passed buckets of water from below to the hnmeane deck for thia pur pose, as I beoame satisfied there was no hope of saving the vessel, and that tbe only ehanoe to save the passengers waa to keep her golDg, she heading for tbe beach. Tne boat reaohed the beach in abont twelve or thirteen minutes after tbe alarm waa given. In lea* than five minntea after the alarm was given the fire was in the rear of the pilot honse, and the engine refused to work. In abont half a mlnnte after she struck the shore and tbs but ran a length before, abe oome to a atop and grounded m less than five feet of water from the bow. I rema.o-d on the hnrrioane deck nntil the flime* had burnt the window onrtam in my room, and tbe saloon windows below were shooting forth finy darts. I then oama down on the forward deck and did what I oonld to save the passengers. A great many were afraid to jump overboard. I as- bared them they were safe in jumping, as the water from the bow was not over their beads, and npon thia a-tsuraooe one or two made a leap, and many otbeis, seeing that the water was shallow, followed their extmplo and were saved. It w*s with diffion ty I obeoked them from jumping over in large bcd.osand drowning eaoh other daring tbe excitement. I am satisfied that nearly all tbe lives lost were lost in the stern of tha boat, the fl«mes moving that way, and foroing tbe passengers to jump or be bnrnt. Jast before I left tbe b -at, I near a lady, Mrs. Taylor of Alcundria, crying for help from the rear of the vca-toL I saw her hanging to the middle obains end seut a boat to her and saved her. I am asticfied tbe excitement caused undue loo* of life, aDd tbit cVt-ry passenger was saved who jumped overboard forward. A great many live were Io;t on tbs lifeboats by being over crowded, before tbe boat wss stopped. One of them waa crowded with colored passengers, and when she was ont loose the stern bnlged ont and swamped the craft. About a di z in small chil dren were aboard. I think five or eix were lost. The fire oanght In the hold, bnt it is impose! ble to tell joet where. Tbe boat waa very dry, almost like tinder, and tbe fltmea, when they struck the oiled moobinery, spread like a lorob. The cargo wS9 of a miscellaneous natore and oontained nothing Icflimmable except two bar rels of whisky, which were on the forward holo, and among tba last things bnrned. It waa en tirely lost.
