COTTON CLOTH ASBAGGINC
(»ur factories should lose no time
i making a coarse cloth suitable as a
i.coring for cotton bales. The lowest
radcs of cotton could be used for
this purpose and the demand for the
taplc would thus lie increased by
just the amount > of cotton needed
for making this covering.
Besides it can he made in the
South and would thus represent a
clean gain for the South by just the
amount now paid for bagging. £jiq.
pose a 16 ounce c itton cloth were
used. Estimating the crop at 6,000,-
(100 bales, with 8 yards to the bale,
the covering would require 4K,000,000
pounds of cloth or 120,000 bales of
too pounds to the bale. At 10 cents
per yard the covering for the crop
would cost $5,000,000 which would
he an immeuse additional revenue for
Southern cotton mills.
Nor would the planter lose any
thing. The cotton cloth covering of
8 Yards, weighing eight pounds, to
gether with 0 vies would weigh hut
14 pounds as against 22 pounds of
jute bagging; hut the .are of 28
pounds per hale for bagging and
lies would be reduced to say 16
pounds so the lesser weight of the
covering would have no appreciable
effect on the planter. Besides the
insurance would lie less and the loss
by fire diminished. Let our mills
show their usual enterprise in this
matter.
after Election. I am just the same
kind of a protectionist that the Presi
dent is, and we have not differed upon
that subject. We have not always
agreed upon questions of policy, but
our differences of opiuion are forgotten
when the occasion is passed. He has
always accorded to me a larger share
of his confidence and much greater
consideration than I ever considered
myself entitled to. No man with
ordinary sense could be closely asso
ciated with the President and not
concede his right to control the poli
cy of his Administration.
Mayor Hewitt created quite a stir
in New York political circles when
he said the other day that; “Some of
the prominent members of Tammany

its members that they will give the

Tammany to resent tins charge of

Tlie Bible refers to the church as hav
ing such glittering adornments, saying:
**Thy neck is comely with chains of :
gold.” On the other hand, a clr.-in j
means captivity. David the psalmibt cx- j
ul»3 that |»owct had been given over his
enemies “to bind their kings with
chains.” Tlie old missionary aj»ostlo j
cries out: “For tho hope of Israel, lam j
bound with this chain.” In the prison i
where Peter is incarcerated you hear one
day a great crash at the falling off of his
chains. St. John saw an angel come
down from heaven to manacle tho pow
ers of darkness, and having “a great
chain in his hand,” and tire fallen angt-L
are represented as “reserved in everlast
ing chains," while in my text for tho ar

What I wish to impress upon myself
put around us a strong chain of
good in., nonces. Chris tain association is
u link. Good literature is a link. Church
membership is a link. Habit of prayer
is a iis.k. Scripture research is a link.
Faith in God is a link. Put together all
those influences. Slake a chain!
Must excellent is it /or us to get into
company 1h*: ‘er than ourselves. If we are
given to telling vile stories Ictus put our
selves among those who will not abide
such utterance. If we are stingy let us
put ourselves among the charitable. If
we ate morose let us put oumtIves among
the g'xnl Matured. If us* are given to
tittle-tattle let us put oureelves among
those who speak no ill of their neighbors.
If we are despondent let us put ourselves
among those who make the best of things.
1 If evil is contagious. 1 am glad to say that
j good is also catching. People go up into
: the hid country for physical health; so
! if you would be strong in your
j soul get yourself up off tho* low-

You have only

king of Sparta had crossed the Hellespont
and was about to march through Thrace,
ho sent word *o tho people in the differ
ent regions asking them, whether he
should inarch through their countries as
a friend or an enemy. “By all means as
a friend,** answered most of tho regions;
but tho king of llacedon replied: “I will
take time to consider it.** “Then,** said
tho king of Sparta, “lot him consider it,
but meantime wo march—we march.
So Christ, our King, gives ua our choice
between his friendship and his frown,
and many of us liave long been consider
ing what we had better do; but mean

the loving subjects of his reign or # the
victims of our own obduracy. So I urge

In his letter of acceptance Mr.

issue in the campaign. He admits
the justice of tho reduction proposed

policy of his party which is to give

promises amount to. Reform in the
tariff and not idle promises! is de

Of Mr. Harrison’s letter of ac

We arc on the eve of another
presidential election. ’The nominees
of the two great parties liave issued
their letters of acceptance, outlining
their policy in the event of election.
The forces are marshalling and the
issue hangs upon the will of a great
people. The result cannot be con
sidered doubtful. Cleveland stands
ujkiii an almost faultless record
of four years; a record which chal
lenges the admiration of the world;
endears him to his party friends and
extol ts confidence and respect even
from liis bitterest political enemies.
Democracy, numbering in its ranks
the great mass of conservative citizens
■"throughout the Union, is in:rchi-ig
in solid phalanx on to victory, every
day receiving and welcoming re
cruits from far and near.

are to-day, when through its leader,
it stands for the people as against op
pression and tyranny of all kinds.
Every utterance of Mr. Cleveland is
that of a man who is inspired with a
profound respect for the will of the
majority, whose highest ambition it
is to conduct his administration for
tlie greatest good far the greatest
number. In striking contrast Mr.
Harrison stands at the head
of a ouce great party
but a party now rotten to the
core, which has hut little respect tor
the masses but nurtures millionaires
and makes paupers. The nearest ap

THE TWO NEW STATES
There is more or less anxiety in
tlie Western circles over the admis
sion of tlie Territories of Dakota and
Washington, but the former is locked
jp in the embrace of the Democrats
of the House, who will refuse to do
anything with it so long as they are
in power in that branch, for the sim
ple reason that it may give the Re
publicans two more United States
Senators. On the other hand, the
Democrats seem to favor the admis
sion of Washington, upon the theory,
possibly, that they can gain two sena
tors thereby. But tlie struggle lias
been, thus far, as to whether the hill
shall embrace tlie so-called pan-handle
of Idaho, annexing and. making it
form a part of Washington. The
people of Idaho stem to he divided,

But, as I remarked in the opening, in

royalty of nature, but sometimes cap
tivity. And 1 sappo: •'‘there uro those in

making a chain. Now here is a young
man of gvxxi physical health, good man
ners and good education. How shall ho
put together enough links to mako a
chain for the down hill road? I will
give him some directions. First let
him smoke. If ho cannot stand
cigars let him try cigarettes. I think
cigarettes will help him on this road a
little more rapidly because tho doctors
say there is more poison in them, and so
he will he heljn*d along faster, and I have
the more confidence in proposing this
because nliout fifty of the first young
men of Brooklyn during the last year
were, according to tho doctors* reports,
killed by cigarettes. Let him drink light
wines*first, or ale or lager, and gradually
he will be able to bike something stronger,
and as all sty lea-of strong drink aro more
and more adulterated, his progress will
saint. Is there a libertine here?

There have been chains famous in the
world’s history, suoh as tho chain which
fastened tlie prisoner of Chillon to the
pillar, into tlie staplo of which I have
thrust my liand, on tho Isolated rock of
tho Lake of Genera; such as the chain
which the Russian exile clanks on liis
way to tho mines of Siberia; such as the
chain which Zenobia, tho captive queen,
wore when brought into tho presence of
Aurelian. Aye, thero have been races
in chains, and nations in chains, and
there has been a world in chains; but.
thank God, the last one of them shall
bo broken, and under tho lilierating
power of tho omnipotent Gospel tho
shackles shall fall from the last neck and
the last arm and the lust foot. But these
shattered fetters shall all be gathered up
again from tho dungeons and the work
houses and tho mines and tho rivers and
tho fields, and they shall again bo welded
ar d again strung link to link, and pol
ished and transformed until this world,
which has wandered off and been a
recreant world and a lost world, shall by
that chain bo lifted and hung to the
tiirono of God, no longer the iron chain
of oppression, but the golden chain of
redeeming love. There let this old
ransomed world swing forever! Roll
on, yo years, roll on, ye days, roll on,ye

Character of a School.
A school never ought to depend for its
character on tho exceptional excellence
or success of a few of its masters. If it
does, these few reputations may become
cloaks for a vast amount of poor work,
and the character of the school, as a
school, is a sham, without any element
of fixity in it. The ordinary arrange
ments should have a strong tendency, at
least, to insure sound work, from the
lowest to the highest class.—George R.
Parkin in* The Century.

from tho Atmii fclul of cholic.' that the
o'.,l folks uron): out of yours ago
when they commemorated tho suf
ferings of the Lord. Yes, roy lad, you
do not have such fun in sin as you seem
to have. I know wliat spoils your fun.
You cannot shake off tho influences of
those prayers long ago offered, or of
those kind admonitions. You cannot
make them go away, and you feel liko
saying: “Father, what are you doing
here? Mother, why do you bother mo
with suggestions of those olden times?”
But they will not go away. They wilt
push you back from your evil patlis,
though they have to come down from
their shining homes in heaven and stand
in the very gates of hell, and their backs
scorched of the fiery blast, and with their
hand od your shoulder, and their breath
on your brow, and their eyes looking
straight into yours, they will say: “Wo
have come to take you home, O,
son of many anxieties!" At lost
that young man turns through
the consecutive influences of a pious
parentage, who out of prayers and fidel
ities innumerable, made a chain. That
is the chain that pulls mightily this
morning ou five hundred of you. You
may be too proud to shed a tear, and
you may, to convince others of your im
perturbability, smile to your friend be
side you, but there is not so much power
in on Alpine avalanche after it has
slipped for a tliousand feet and having
struck a lower cliff is taking its second
bound for fifteen hundred feet more of
plunge, as there is power in the chain
that pulls you this moment toward God
and Christ and heaven. Ohl tlio
almighty pull of the long chain of early
gracious influences)
But all people between thirty and forty
E i of age, yea, between forty and
—aye, between fifty and sixty years,
all septuagenarians as well, need a
surrounding conjunction of good influ
ences. In Sing Sing, Auourn, Hoya-
mensing, and all the other great prisons,
aro men and women who went wrong in
middle life and old age. Wo need around
be facilitated. With the old time drinks
a man seldom got delirium tremens be
fore 30 or 40 years of age; now he can
get the madness by tlio time ho
is 18. Lot him play cards, enough
money put up always to add
interest to the game. If the father and
mother will play with him that will help
by way of countenancing tlie habit. And
it will bo such n plea: ant tiling to think
over in the day of judgment when tho
parents give account for tho elevated
manner in which they liave reared their
children. Every pleasant Sunday after
noon tafco r, carriage ride mid stop at ths
hotels on either ride tlie road for Sub-
bath refreshments. Do- not let tlio
old fogy prejudices against Sabbath
breaking dominate you. Havo a
membership in eomo club where
libertines go and tell about their
victorious sins, and iiuigii ns loud as any
of them in derision of those who belong
to tlie same sex asyour sister and mother.
Pitch your lid do overboard as old fash
ioned and fit only for women and chil
dren. Read all the magazine articles that
put Christianity at disadvantage, and go
to hear ail the lectures that malign Christ,
who, they say, instead of being tho
Mighty One ho pretendt d to be, was an
inqiastor and tlio implanter of a great
delusion. Go. at first out of curiosity, to
see all tlio houses of dii-aiyation and then
go beenu-o you have felt tlio thrall of
til:ir fasciaatiou. Getting along splen-
-diuiy cow!
Let me fee what further can I suggest
in that di: ; n'.io:i. id. c ::ir inoro defiant
of ::l! dew..; .. more Lr.<1 mouthed in your
atheism, more thoroughly alcoholized,
and instead of the smell stakes that will
do Avtll enough for games of chance in a
ladies’ parlor, put up something worthy,
put up more, put up .til you have. Well
done! You liave succeeded. You havo
made a chain—ths tobacco habit ouo link,
tho rum habit one link, tho impure club
another link, infidelity another link. Sab
bath dcsecratk.i another link, unclcan-
ness another link, and altogether they
ua a cordon at good influence. Wo for
get to apply the well known rule that a
chain is no stronger- than its weakest
link. If the chain he made up at
1.000 links and 000 aro strong, bat one
is weak, the chain will be in danger of
breaking at that ana weak link. We
may be strong in a thousand excellences
and yet havo ono weakness which cn
mako a clmin. And so there is n chain
on your hand and a chain on your foot
and a chain on your tongue and a
chain on your eyo and a chain
on your brain and a chain on your
property and a chain on your soul. Somo
day you wake up and you say. “I am
tired of this, and I am going to get loose
from this shackle.” You pound away
with tlio hammer of good resolution, but
cannot broak the thrall. Your friends
join you in a conspiracy of help, but fall
exhausted in tho unavailing attempt.
Now you begin, and with tho writhing
of a Laocoon, to try to break away, and
tho muscles aro distended, and the great
beads of perspiration dot your forehead,
and tlio'eyes stand out from tho sockets,
and with all tlie concentered energies of
body, mind and soul you attempt to get
loose, but liavo only tnado tho chain rink
deeper. All the devils that encamp in tho
wino flask and tho rum jug and tho de
canter—for each ono lias n devil of it3 own
—corno out and sit around yon and chat
ter. In somo midnight you spring from
your couch and cry: “I am fast O God,
letmeloosc! O ye powers of darkness, let
me loose! Father and mother and broth
ers and sisters, help mo to get looset"
And you turn your prayer to blasphemy
and then your blasphemy mto prayer,
and to all the din and uproar there is
played an accompaniment, not au accom
panient by key and pedal, but tho ac
companiment is rattle and tlie rattle is
that of a chain. For five years, for ten
years, for twenty years, you have been
making u ciiain. ^
But here I take a step higher and tell
you thero is a power that can break any
chain, chain of body, chain of mind,
chain of soul. The fetters that tho
hammer of the Gospel have broken
off. if piled together, would make a
mountain. Tho captives whom Christ
has set free, if stood side by side, would
inako an army. Quicker than a ship
chandler’s furnace ever melted a cable,
than a key over unlocked a liand-

Churches In the United States.
The Independent last year published
statistics showing tho numerical strength
of tlie united churches of this country
to be a little over 10,000,000. It recently
gavo its estimate for the present year,
exhibiting an increase of 774,861, the
exact figures representing 138.885
churches, 91,457 ministers, and 19,790,-
323 communicants variously divided
among sixty-three denominations. Of
these the Roman Catholic church is,
of course, the strongest, with 7,200,-
000. Methodism, comprising fourteen
branches, comes next with 4,090,529
communicants, an increase of 160,871.
Tho Baptists, including thirteen different
sects, follow with 3,971,685 members,
an increase of 244,478. Tlie Presbyte
rians, consisting of nine branches, are
next in order with 1,130,685 members,'
a not gain of 54,249. Tho Congrega
tional sts number 457,584, and bare
gainod 21,205 members. The Episcopa
lians include 440,785, having gained
20,254 communicants.
Unfortunately, implicit reliance cannot
be placed njxrn these estimates, which
arc given moro to indulge tlie growing
propensity for numbering the host and
to cheer tho hearts of the faithful than as
examples of Fcicntific accuracy. There
is no uniform method of enumeration of
members among the churches. Tlie year
books are published at different periods
of tho - year, and somo denominations
mako no returns whatever. Tlio diffi
culty of collecting religious statistics is
bo great tliat, as is well known, tho cen
sus authorities of 1880 havo not yet been
able te publish that part of their report.
Until that appears we shall have no im
partial estimate of the strength of
churches in this country. It seems dif
ficult to believe tliat nearly one-third of
tho people aro members of the church,
but the difficulty is partly removed by
remembering that the large Roman
Catholic population is almost efitireiv
upon tlie communicant list of that
church. Its members, however, can
only be estimated. According to The
Independent’s estimate it lias gained
200,000 during tho hast year; but the
gain from emigration lias undoubtedly
been r.icro than this, 4 to say nothing of
tuo natural incmi&c. Methodism last
year claimed an increaso of 500,000; this
year it fall3 below the Baptist denomina
tion. On tho whole tho gains claimed
ore not unreasonable. A gain of 774,
861 upon a membership last year of 19,-
015,462 is only a gain of 4 per cent. This
is less than the increase of population,
and ought not to be regarded aaa satis
factory result, when the many agencies
and activities maintained by the church
are considered.—Detroit Froo “
