Give a kind word to the erring— It may raise a fallen brother ; And the law of heaven caches We should kindly treat each other. Ah ! Hie paths of vice are many ; And when tempted and when tried, Remember thou art mortal. And thy feet may turn aside. Give a kind word to the erring Who h tve trod the paths of sin, For the tempter too may woo thee, And thy feet may turn therein. All along life's rugged pathway Stones are bruising weary feet ; Thistles springing ’mong the flowers— ■ Tares are glowing with the wheat. And the master in Ilis vineyard Hath a work for you to do, For the harvest there is plenteous, Rut the lab revs are few. Tarty not—the day is waning, And Hie night is coming on. And Ihv master will reward yon For the word thy hands hath done. If from out one bleeding bosom You have plucked the bitter thorn If you’ve cheered the drooping spirit When its every h pe was gone ; If you've stretched the hand of kindness. To lead erring, staying feC't, There’s a rich toward awaits you— And love's labor, too, sweet. If along life’s rugged highway You have raised a drooping flower; Ii thy smiles hath ever gladdened For one heart a gloomy hour— It hath placed a star to glitter In the angel crown above ! Ah ! lire’s mission lieie is holy ! When we make it one of love ! Oh ! remember, then, the erring ! Thou mayst lift tire soul again Ami from some poor bleeding boosonv, Wipe away the guilty stain. All the world is one broad vineyard, Where there’s work for each to do ; For the harvest there Is plenteous, Lsul the laboreis are few ! Work then -life’s sun is setting, And tile night of Death comes on, And the 51 aster at his coining Will expect thy work well done 1 EDI I OILS AND Hi IN i'EES IX CON* O HESS. Heretofore says the New York Daily Globe, tm n a bilious to hold seats in (Joti> gross have regarded the profession <>f law as a stopping-stone to the higher thing 1 de* sited, Ihe charge has often been biougitl against the pieseut Congress that it coti' tains too many lawyers for the best inter ests of the people. We believe it may be said that more prominent men in both houses of Congress have at some time or other been editors or pi inters, than mem-’ bet sos any othei profession. 'I he craft was never in such luck, from the Vice Piesident down, since the days of Ber Franklin, as is to-day In the Senate we find the presiding officer, Colfax, as every/* body knows, a journeymen printer and editor. Mr. Abbott, of North Carolina,has edited the Manchester American and the Boston Atlas; Anthory, of Rhode Island, for many years edited the Providence Jour nal; Brownlow, of 'lenuessee, edited the Knoxville Whig for thirty years ; Casserly of California, edited a daily in San Frans cisco, and was the State printer for a year; Camenm, of Pennsylvania, was a journey man printer, and has edited papers in Har> risburg and Doylestown ; Howell, of lowo, edits a paper at Keokuk; Hamlin, of Maine was in early life a compositor; Ross, of Kansas, was foreman of the Milwaukee Sentinel, mud edited the Kansas Tribune; Schnrz, of Missouri, once edited a paper in Germany, and in Detroit and St* Lous; and BAINBRIDGE, GATHURSDAY, JULY 28, 1870 Colonel Gotliatii, the Secretary of the Sen ate, was also once an editor. lit the House there is a long list of edis tors and printers, a frw of whom we will mention; Mr. Hay,‘of Illinois, became a printer in his sixteenth year* Mr. Packard, of Indiana, edited the Laporte Union ; Mr. Palmer, of lowa, once edited the James town Journal, of (his State; Mr. Speaker Blaine r<liw and the. Portland Advertiser and •Kennebec *J tiTual ; General Banka once the ed torial chair; Mr. Dawes ed - s i(*(V tin* Greenfield Gazette and Adams Transcript for several years ; Mr. Robert l.Vnn Horn, of Missouri, worked at tin* ease in early life ; Mr. Asper, of Missouri, edited the V\ estern Reserve Chronicle and the Chardon Dernoorai, in Ohio; Torn Fitch edin ti theS.iM Francisco Times and Placer vil'e Republican; Mr E!a, of New Hams shire, commenced life as a printer ; Mr. Reeves, of thus State, Edited the Republic can Watchman at Greenport; Sunset Cox once owned and edited the Columbus (Ohio) Statesman; James Brooks edits the Express; General S'rader, of 0 no, worked three years as a journeyman, printer, and Mr. Lawrence, of the same State, reported for the Columbus State Journal, subsequently editing the Logan Gazette and the Western Law Magazine; General Mungen edited and published the Findlay Democratic Courier, Philadelphia Van Trump learned the art and mystery of printing- and edited the Lan caster Gazette and Enquirer ; John A ( Bingham started life as a printer ; Judge Kelly, of Philadelphia, gained his first live lihood by proof-reading in a printing office; J. L. Getz, of Reading, Penn, edited the Reading Gazette and Democrat for twen ty-five years; 11.

This list shoidd be long enough to cons vince the most skeptical that printing and editing bungs its political rewards as well as the most learned professions. Someday a printer may occupy the White House. Why not, as well as a raiP-splitter, a tailor of a tail m V ? THRILLING REVOLUTIONARY STORY- Got! is 'every where. His words are in the heart. lie is on the battle-field or in oii i peaceful hotfte. Praise His holy ttarne. It uas in lhe wilds of \\ issahicon oil the terrible day of battle, as tin* uooudav sun came through ihe thick clustered leaves that two men met in a deadly conflict near the reef of that rose, like some primeval world, at least a thousand feet above the daik waters of the Wiss diicon . The man with the dark btowii face and dark grey eyes, flashing with deadly light, whose muscular form is clad in a blue frock of Revolution, is a continental named Win Teti The other man, with the long black hair, droopimg along his cadav* rolls face, clad in half military costume of a tory re fugee, is a murderer of Pao!i t and is named I)eh;t ncy. They met by accident, and now they fought not swords and rifles, but wltii long and deadly hunting kuives they struggled, and twisting on the green sward. At last the to o' is down —down on the turf, with the knee of the continental on his bteasi the upraised knife flashed death in his face. “Quarter ! I yield !” gasped the tory, as the knee was pressed on bis breast ; ‘spare me, I yield !” ‘My brother,’ said the patriot, in tones of deadly hate, 4 my brother cried for quar ter on the fie and of Paoli, and eyen as he citing to your knees you stuck your knife into his heart- On. I will give you the quarter yon gave at Paoli.’ His h ind was raised for the blow, and his teeth clenched with deadly hate. He paused fora moment, and then pinioned the torv’s arms, and with a rapid stride dragged him to the verge of the rock, and held him quivering over the abyss. ‘Mercy !’ grasped the tory, turning ashy pale, as that awful yawned far, far below. ‘I have a wife and child at home—spare me!’ The continental with great muscular strength, gathered for the effort, shook the murderer once more over the abyss, and ihon hissed his bitter sneer in his face. ‘My brother had a wife and two children! Tte morning after the night of Pauli, that wife was a widow, those children orphans! Ask mercy from them!* 1 In* proposal made by the continental in mockery and hale, was taken in serious earnest by the terror-stricken tory. He tu gjjed io be taken to the widow and he cuiiUtefb and to have the privilege Os beg ging lor his life. After a moment of serious thought the patriot consented. He bound the t».ry s arms still tighter, placed Win on ins feel, and ied hun thro’ the woods. A quiet cottage embossorned among the trCWb, broke on then* eyes. They entered the cot tage, and beheld the desolate widow and her children. She sat there, a matronly woman of about tweutv-eight years, with a taco laded by cures, deep dark eyei, and long black hair. Nearly in front of her was a dark-hatred bo} ut sortie six years. By her side was a little gitl one year younger, wiih light blue eyes- The Bible and hymn book lay on a table near where she sat. The pale-faced lory thiew himself uti his knees, au-J confessed that he had butchered her husband on ihe night of Paoli; but lie now begged her to spare his life, ‘►spare me for the sake of my wffe aud cm id!’ He expected that his pitiful moan would touen the widow’s heart, but not' one re lenting gleam softened her face. ‘YLie Lord shall judge between us,* she said in a cold, icy toue, that froze the mur derer’s heart. Taking the Bible, she ‘Look; the Jtbbte is in my tap; I will close llio volume, ana let iny liii.le sou open it, and place uis finger at random upon aline, aud by ifiai you snail or die.’ Inis was a strange proposal, made m good tailu, ut a mud aud dark superstition ut olden lime. For u moment, Hie lory, pule as ashes, was wrapped in deep thought,, then lti a laiul voice signified his Consent. KaiSitig her dark eyes to heaveu, the mother prayed to direct the finger of her son. she closed the book and handed it to lhe boy, whose cheek reddened with loath ing as ne gazed upon his taUier’s murderer, tie touk the Bible aud opeued Us holy pages, at random, and placed his singe: upon a versev Tltere was a ‘Silence. The continental soldier who had sworn to avelige fits brother’s death, stood with dila ted 'eyCst and parted ftps. The culprit kneeling h pon Ltie floor, with his lace dis colored ciaV. left his heart leap to his throat. Then, in a clear, bold Voice, the widow lead this line from the Old Testament. Ii was short but. terrible: ‘That man shall surely die!’ Look! the brother spring* forward to plunge ihe knife into the murderer’s heart, but the lory pinioned us he is, cdugs to the widow’s knees. He hL-gs that one more trial may Lie made by the little girl. The widow consents There is an awful pause. With a smile in her eye, and with out knowing what she is doing, the little girl opened the Bible as it lay oft hes mother’s knee; sue turned her face away and placed her finger upon a liua. The awful silence grows deeper. The deep drawn breath of tlie brother aud bro ken gasp of the murderer alone disturbed the SiillnCss. The widow autl dark-haired boy are breathless. The little girl as she Caught ti e feeling of awe from iht.se around hei, stood breath less also, her turned aside andjhei tiny fin :>x*rs resting on life or death. At length gathering courage, the widow bent her ey6s upon the page and read tin line. It was trom the New Testament: ‘Love your enemies!’ 0, Book of terrible majesty aud child like love, of simplicity, that crushes the heart with rapture, it never shone more strongly than there in that lone hut of YVissahicon, when it saved the murderer’s heart. A Naval Fight off Our Coast Probable, — During our late uupieasautness the citizens ot Cherbourg had a holiday sight in wit nessing the ocean duel between the Kears sage and Alabama. New York, says the World, may probably have an opportunity oi enjoying a similar sensation now, for there are in our waiers the North German L igate Ancona, of 400 horse-power and 28 guns, and the French frigate Semiraoiis and the school-ship Jean Bart. Half adogen leagues would not be «oo long a sai! for sensation loving New Yorker* to go to see this fight THE AMAZON. The Amazon, the largest river in the world, has an area of drainage nearly three times as large as that of all the rivers of Europe tliat empty themselves into the At lantic. This plain is entirely covered with dense primeval forest, through which the only paths are those made by Hie river and its innumerable ty/biitnries. This forest is literally impemdvable. Humboldt remarks that two mission stations might be only a few miles apart, and yet Ihe residents would require a day and a- half to visit each other, along the windings of small streams. Even the wild animals get involved in such ffn penetrable masses of wood, that they (even the jaguar;) live a long time iti the trees, a terror to the fnoukWs whose domain they have invaded. Tlie trees often measu>e from eight to twelve feet in diameter; and the intervals are occupied hv shrub-like plants, whichjiere in these tropical regions, become nboresceut. The origin of the Amazon is unknown; it is navigable for two thousand miles from the ocean; it is nearly one hundred miles wide at the mouth, and in some places six hundred feet deep; and its turret.t projects, as it were into the ceun, more than three hundred miles, per ceptibly altering its waters at ibis distance from the American shores. ‘He Drinks.’ —How omnious that nep tence falls ! , How we pause in conversa tion and ejaculate—‘lt's a pity. Tlow his mother hopes that ho will not when ho grows older, and his sister persuades them that it is only a few wild oats he is sowing! And yet old men shake their heads And feel gloomy when they think about it. Young rm*n, just com mencing life, buoyant with hope, don’t drink. You are freighted with a pre cious cargo. The hopes of your old pa rents, of yom wives, of your children—all are laid down upon you. In you the aged live over agian their young days ; through you must that weary one ybn lore übs tain a pOsitfofTiu society ; and from the 'evel on which you place them, must your children go into the great struggle of life. --Exchange papcir. ■ Would to heaven that paragraphs like the above might be found in every news paperYrom MainC tb Texas, and that being read by young men, the shot might strike home, aud secure a permanent reformation Singular as it may appear, very few men who drink lofsuwoss can be found who do not denounce the habit in the strongest terms—.not the slightest benefit is derived from it, yet each succeeding year beholds many a pew made grave which, but for the habits o intoxication would yet be tenant less.

Fr.EE I'itADE Ako FnrrE Lab:>h»—lf free trade is good, why' not free la hoi ? If it is wrong that American consumers are com pelled to pay high prices for home made goods because of the protective tariff up on Englit-h goods, is it right to Oppose the introduction ol cheap Chinese labor because it comes in conflict with American labor ? Again, what better plan can be adopted to secure free trade than this plan of introdu cing Chinese labor, which in cheapness will tenable our factories nhd 'bnndi ies to com* pete with those of' England Without a pro tective 1 ■ tariff? In a word, do not free trade and free lobor» and a free field for labor, all go together. What say the politicians? —New York Herald.

That infamous and unnecessary bur* den has been Strapped to the backs of men already tottering under pecuniary loads for two uioVe years They asked to be reliev* ed from this eXactidn, They pointed out the unjust and unfair character of the bill in question. They stripped the movement of all political bias, and allowed it to rest upon business treaties alone, and still a Radical Congress and a Radical President turned a deaf ear to their ferdreatieft, and re-imposed the tax. This was done to koep in place a host of office-holders to feed fatten on the - hard earnings of business men. The whole movement orfgs in a ted with office holders and members of Congress who divide the profits with them and such a combination is supported and endorsed by a Radical Congress, in oppo* si lion to the business interests of the coun* try. — A'gl.
