of the University a thorough investi
gation, and their rejiort was highly
complimentary, although, as litis been
already said, they were somewhat ham
pered by the senseless objections of
one of their number; but the spleen
of tlie “imported pedagogue” was
vented in vain. Tlie report of the
sensible portion of the Board was that
the University was in a splendid con
dition, and that the examination pa
pers of the students were exceptional
ly good and their behavior excellent.
Of course, the discipline of the Uni
versity is different from that of a pri
vate school. When one enters the
University lie is received us a gentle
man. and as one who comes to study,
and if lie does study and does act the
gentleman, there is no place in the
South where a better education can lie
secured. As to the faculty of this in
stil ul ion, we can truly say that we
don't believe that, ill the South, a bet
ter can hi* found. “If there is a weak
spot in it, it is very diflieult to lind.
I'lie curriculum of tile University is as
thorough and the standard as high as
they ever were, and the best evidence
of the etliciency of the professors is
the mental culture <f the young men
who annually leave the college halls.”

Now. we would like to say some
thing as to the citizens of Athens,

words of another: “licr people are

BLAINE ON FREE WHISKY-
In his Baris letter Air. Blaine thus
xpressed himself on the whisky ques
tion :
•Other considerations than those
if financial administration are to In-
taken into account with regard to
whisky. There is a moral side to it.
To cheapen the price of whisky is to
increase its consumption enormously.
There would Ik* no sense in urging the

Mr. l'hilpott proceeds to ridicule the
home’market humbug. He says:
“The ‘home market’ is another tar
iff humbug in which he has no por
tion. 1 f he raises three bales of cot
ton for his own share he sells one in
America aud two across the ocean.
For the two bales be must patiently
wait until a foreign customer sends a
foreign ship to carry it away. And
who is that foreign customer? He is
exactly the man whom our high tar

fence, cripple, and if |Hissible, ruin.

No. Look at it in any way you
will; catalogue all the imaginary
blessings of our present tariff system
and not a single one of them is be
stowed upon the negro. His cotton
is not taxi d, hut the shirt that was
made of it is; and the iron ties that

it was sent to the seaboard to await

whom it even supposes that it heaps
the burdens of its own support, arc

other American citizen for having
innue his own living without one par
ticle of protection, bounty, subsidy or
financial aid of any kind from Govern
ment, nor even any compensation for
the protection or subsidizing of others
at liisexiier.se. Black as lie is, victim
ized :is in* is, lie is a king in self re
spect compared with the fiock-inaster
who robs him o: his hard earnings
when he comes to sjieiid for woollen
clothes a portion of what the foreign
er has paid him for his cotton, and
whose fare blanches not nor blushes
when he declares that, unlike the ne
gro, he cannot, without the tariff that
robs the negro, make his living in the
best country ever spread under the
foot of man,”
In conclusion he says it is not
surprising that the white cotton
grower is not the nation’sward because
“he does not usually vote for the peo
ple who pluck him, while the negro is
confidently expected to pass under
the rod of Northern ‘protection’ just
as meekly and obediently as lie once
bowed to the Southern lash. There
is not a more pathetic scene in this
world than to behold the tears trickle
down the careworn cheeks of the New
England cotton manufacturer, protect
ed by a tariff of 40 tier cent, when
some casual word calls to his mind
the Mack cotton-grower, protected by
a taritf of Oft per cent. And why
does he weep? l’oor man, he fears
that tlie negro is not always allowed to
vote, and have his vote counted, for a
high taritf on eotton ties and cotton
clothes. He has no fear whatever
that of his own free will the negro
would vote for his own interests in the
matter.”

he is. thinking over tlie fortunes of tlie

men lying in ambush aro straining their

that they may know what time to drop

shaft of doom, and points it toward the
city: and when the men up yonder in
the ambush sec it, with hawklike swoop
they drop upon Ai, and witliout stroke

over the plateaux of Mexico, and Na
poleon and hla army retreating from
Moscow into the Awful snows of Russia,
are not worthy to be mentioned with
this retreat, when all the powers of
darkness seem to be pursuing Christ
as he fell back, until the body of him who
came to do such wonderful things lay
pulseless and stripped. Methinks that
tlie city of Ai was not so emptied of its
inhahitania when they went to pursue
Joshua, as perdition was emptied of
devils when they started for the pursuit
ut Christ and he fell buck and-back down
lower, down lower, cliast-a below chasm,
pit below pit. until be wemed to strike
thp bottom of objurgation and acorn and
torture. Oh, the long, loud, jubUantkbont
of hell at the defeat of tho Lord God
Almighty!
But let not the power of darkness re
joice quite so soon. Do you hear that
disturbance in the tomb of Arimathoo?
I hear tlie sheet rending) 'What means
that atone hurled down the sido of the
hill? Who is this coming out? Push
him hack! the dead must not stalk in
this open sunlight. O, it is our Joshua.
Let him come out. He comes forth
and starts for the city. He takes the
s|ieur of the Roman guard and points that
way. Cliurcli militant marches up on
mio side and the church triumphant
marches down ou the other ride. And
tlie powers of darkness being caught be
tween th*se ranks of celestial and ter
restrial valor, nothing is left of them
save just enough to illustrate the direful
overtiirow of hell and our Joshua’s
eternal victory. Ou his head be all tlie
crowns. In Ills hand be all the scepters.
At his feet lie all tlie human hearts; and
lierc. Lord, is one of them.
Lessou the second: The triumph of the
wicked is short. Did you ever see an
armv in a panic? There is nothing so
un<- ntrollable. If you had stood at
L....g bridge, Washington, during tlie
opening of our sad civil war, you would
know what it is to see an army run.
And when those men of Ai looked out
and saw those meu of Joshua in a stam
pede, they expected easy work. They
would scatter them as the equinox the
leaves. Oil, tlie gleeful and jubilant de
scent of tlie meu of Ai upon the men of
Joshua! But their exhilaration was
brief, for the tide of battle turned and
these quondam conquerere left their mis
erable carcases iu tlie wilderness of Beth-
avetl. Bo it alw ays is. The triumph of tlie
wicked is short. You make §20,000 at
tlie gaming table. Do you expect to
keep it? You will die in tlie poorhouse.
You made a fortune by iniquitous traffic.
Do you expect to keep it! Your money
will scatter, or it will stay long enough
to curse your children after you ore
dead. Call over the roll of bad men who
prospered and see how short was their
prosperity. For a while, like the men of
Ai, tiiey went from conquest to con
quest, but after a while disaster rolled
back upon tiiern, and they were divided
into three parts; misfortune took their
property, the grave took their body, and
the lost world took their aouL 1 am al
ways interested in the building of tho-
atres and the building of dis
sipating saloons. I like to have them
built of tlie best granite and have the
rooms made large and to ha- e the pillars
mode very firm. God is going to conquer
them, and they will be turned into asy
lums and art galleries and churches. The
stores in which fraudulent men do buri-
the splendid banking institutions
where the president and cashier put all
their property in their wives’ hands and
then fail for two hundred thousand dol
lars—all these institutions arc to become
the places where honest Christian men
do business.
How long will it take your boys to get
through your ill gotten gains? Tho
wicked do not live out half their days.
Fora while they swagger and strut and
make a great splash in the newspapers,
hut after awhile it all dwindles down
into a brief paragraph: “Died suddenly,
July 22. 1383. at 35 years of age. Rel
atives and friends of the family aro in
vited to attend the funeral on Wednes
day. at ? o'clock, from his late resi
dence on Madison square* Interment at
Greenwood." Some of them jumped off
(he docks. Some them took prussic acid.
Borne of them fell under the snap of a
Derringer pistol. Borne of them spent
their last days in a lunatic asylum.
Where are William Tweed and
hit associates? Where are Ketcham and
Hwartwout, absconding swindlers! Where
is James Fisk, the libertine? Where is
John Wilkes Booth, the assassin? and all
the other misdemeanants! Tho wicked
do not live out half their days. Disem
bogue. O world of darkness) Conte up,
Hildebrand and Henry H and Robee-
pierre, and with blistering and blasphem
ing and ashen lips, hiss out: “Tlie tri
umph of tlie wicked b short.” Alas for
the men of Ai when Joshua stretches
out his spear toward the city I
Lesson tlie third: How much may be
accomplished by lying in ambush for op
portunities. Are you hypercritical of
Joshua's maneuver? Do you say that
it was clieating for him to take that city
by ambuscade? Was it wrong for Wash
ington to kindle camp fires on New Jer
sey Heights, giving the impression to the
opposing force that a great army was
encamped there when tliere was none at
all? 1 answer, if tlie war was right then
Joshua was right in his stratagem. He
violated no flag of truce. He broke no
treaty, Imt hv a lawful ambuscade cap
tured the city of Ai. Oh, that we all knew
liow to lie iti ambush for opportunities to
sen* God. The best of our op;>ortuni
ties do not lb on the surface, but are se
creted ; by tact, by stratagem, by Chris
tian ambuscade, you may take almost
any castle of sin for Christ Come up
toward men with a regular beriegement
of argument and yon will be defeated;
but just wait until the door of their
hearts is set ajar, or they are off their
guard, or their severe caution is away
from home, and then drop in on them
from a Christian ambuecade. Tliere has
been nutny a man up to hia chin in scien
tific portfolios which proved there was no
Christ and no divine revelation, hb pen a
scimetar flung into the heart of theologi
cal opjmnenta, who. nevertheless, has
been discomfited and captured for God
by some little three-year-old child who
has got up aud put her snowy anus
around his sinewy neck, and asked some
simple question about God and heaven.
Oh, make a flank movement; steal a
march on tlie devil; cheat that man kito
heaven. A $3 treatise that will stand all
the lawn of homiletics may fail to do that
which a penny tract Christian entreaty
may accomplish. Oh, for more Chris
tians in ambuscade, not lying in idleness,
but waiting fora quick 'sprififc. watting
until just the right time comes. Do not
talk to a man about the vanity of thb
world on tho day when he lias bought
something at “twelve” and b going to
aeR it at “fifteen.” But talk to
him about the vanity of the world
one the day when be has bought some
thing at “fifteen” and b compelled to
sell at “twelve.” Do not rub a man’s
disposition the wrong tray. Do not take
tlie imjs-ratire mood when tlie subjunc
tive mood will do iust as well. Do not
talk iu |lerfervid style to*phlegmatic, nor
try to tickle a torrid temperament with an
icicle. Yon can take any man fur Christ
if you know how to get at him. Do not

point our spear iu that direction and
then hurl our body, mind. soul, time,
eternity at that one target. In our pul
pits and pews and Sunday schools and
prayer meetings we want to get a repu-
tation for saying pretty things, and so
we point our spear toward the flowers;
or we want a reputation for saying
sublime things, and we point our spear
toward the stars; or we want to get
a reputation for historical knowledge,
and we point our spear toward the past;
or we want to get a reputation for great

Oh, church of God, take aim aud con-

I have heard it saidt “Look out for a
man who has only one idea, ho ts irro-
sistiblc.'' I say : Look for the man wlio
has one Idea, and that a determination
for soul saving. I believe God would
strike me dead if I dared to point the
spear in any other direction. Oh, for
some of tlie courage and enthusiasm of
Joshua 1 He flung two armies from the
tip of that spear. It b sinful for us to
rest, unless it b to get stronger muscle
and fresher brain and purer heart for
God’s work. I feel on my head the
hands of Clirbt in a new ordination. Do
you not feel the same omnipotent press
ure? There b a work for all of us. Oh,
that we might stand up side by 6ido and

all tho cardinal doctrines of the Bible, so
liberal that it surrenders tho rectitude of
the throne of the Almighty. That u

It is comparatively easy to keep on a
parade amid a shower of bouquets and
hand clapping, and the whole street full
of enthusiastic huzzas; hut it b not so
easy to stand up in tlie day of buttle, tlie
face blackened with smoke, tlie uniform
covered with the earth plowed up by
whizzing bullets and bursting shells, half
the r: giment cut to pieces, and yet tlie
commander crying. ‘-Forward, inarch!”
Then it requires old fashioned valor. My
friends, tlie great trouble of tlie kingdom
of God ill thb day b tlie cowurds. Tiiey
do splendidly on a parade day, and at
tlie communion, when they have on their
best clothes of Christian profession; but
put them out in tlie great battle
of life, at the first sharpshoot-
ing of skepticism they dodge,
tiiey fall bock, they break ranks. We
confront the enemy, we open the battle
against fraud, and lo! we find on our
side a great many people that do not try
to pay their debts. And we o|ien the
battle against intemperance, and we find
on our own side a great many people
who drink too much. And we open the
battle against profanity, and we find on
our own side a great many men who
make hard speeches. And we open the
battle against infidelity, and lo! we find
on our own side a great many men who
are not quite sure about the Book of
Jonah. And while we ought to be mass
ing our troo(is, and bringing forth more
tlian the united courage of Austerlitz, and
Waterloo, and Gettysburg, we lutve to
be spending our time in bunt

great many in tlie Lord’s army

Washington, July 21.—The galleries
of the house were packed this morning
to hear Mr. Mills’ closing speech and the
vote on his bill.
Mrs. Cleveland and her mother were
in the President’s gallery.
Mr. Mills concluded his speech at 12:-
35 in support of the bill, and the houie>
on motion of Mr. Mills, voted by ayes
and noes on the free cotton ties amend
ment. The amendment placing cotton
ties on the free list was agreed to—ayes
170, nays 128.
At 1.08 p. m. the votes on the final
passage of the bill was taken. It re
sulted—ayes 1G2, nays 149.
The vote was strictly partisan with
the following exceptions : The demo
crats against the bill were Bliss, of New
York; Greenman. of New York
Meriman, of New York; Sowden
of Pennsylvania. The Republicans
for the bill were Anderson, of
Iowa; Finch, of New York; Wilson, of
Minnesota; Smith, of Wisconsin, (ind
rep). Mr. Koran, of Ohio t (dem.) refrained
from voting.
As originally introduced tlie bill re
duced ths duties on an average from 47
to 40 per cent. Some alternations were
made but the reduction is about as nam
ed. The placing of cotton bagging and
iron ties on the free list will be of decid
ed avantage to the South. The prospects
of the passage of the bill by the Senate
are fair.

At the Unitarian festival to Boston a
minister from St Louis remarked that
when ministers came to the “unfenced
pasture” in the west he was always
tempted to wurm them of the privations
that awaited them in “promising
churches"—that is, churches that prom
ise to |iay $700 a year or more and do
not keep their promise. Some ministers
have found such “promising churches”
without taking such a long trip.—Chris

A QUESTION OP HEALTH.
Bread, biscuit and cake, now generally made by ^
aid of baking powder, enter so largely into our daily;
that their debasement by the introduction of any to
rious or deteriorating substance is a matter of 3^
concern to the public health. What baking powder ^
we use to avoid the lime and alum now found in soaj.,
leavening agents, and to insure pure, sweet and wholes^
bread, is a question, therefore, of direct importance
every individual.
The “Royal” has been determined by the Gor^.
ment chemists and the most prominent food analysts ^
the only baking powder made that is entirely fn* to
lime, alum and other impurities, and absolutely pn re j,
ia made from cream of tartar refined for its exclusive n#
by patent processes by which the tartrate of lime is totty
eliminated. No other baking powder manufacturer ^
chemically pure cream of tartar, and hence the adulterajj*
of other brands. The “Royal” is, accordingly, the only
baking powder that will produce perfectly pure bread,
biscuit, cake, pastry, etc.; and these articles are now
nonneed more wholesome when raised by the Royal
Powder than when leavened by any other agent
It is particularly a question of health, therefore, wiaj
baking powder we shall use; and those who appreciate tie
miseries of dyspepsia and other ailments that follow tie
use of impure food will not hesitate to select the ‘‘Soyai'
