On the subject of residence, the law is that the domicil of a person of full age is the place where lus family permanently resides, aud if he has no family, then the piace where he shall generally lodge. The domicil is changed by an actual change of residence, but must be ac companied by an avowed intention of remaining.

But they shall have their reward. AYlien Thomas Scott,-lie President of the Pennsyl vania Lailroad, went up to God he was not better known than the brake man who, on the Erie Railroad, was last night killed between the car couplings. A Christian woman, at almost ev<* ery eventide, was seen t# go out and and walk by a grove of trees, and people wondered why a mother with so many.honsehold duties should waste so much time in idle saunter ing. Ah, she went to pray, and afterward wrote her Experience m the hymn which has strengthened many so uls. “I love to steal a while away From every ‘cumb’ ring care. And spend the hours of settidg day In humble, grateful prayer’’ According to my text the Chris tiau sexton will get as much diviue reward at the last as the minister. Suppose the former sees that the house of God is filled with fresh air for the lungs of worshipers, and is always affable aud watches that the church is undamaged, at his death he will go right up to sit beside the royal psalmist. The faithful pas tor who toiled at one side of the church will have no higher reward than the sexton who toiled at the other. Clear back in the country there is a boy who wants to go to college and get an education, He; is reading all about the house whenever he can get an opportunity. One night after council say: will and make our old dresses mother says: “I will do any hired help.’’ The l'athef g*s: “1 will husk the corn by nigths.” They banish sugar from the tea and butter from the- Aite, sit without candles evening.

I asked them Na> poleon and where they fought under him? One man said, “I was at Aus terlitz,” and another skid, “I was at the Pyramids,” and another said, “I was at the bridge of Lodi.” The French Government, instead of cast ing these okl men off to die, made their last days luxurious. Well, do you think the Lord is going to cast off his old soldiers? Look at the old veterans! You think those crev ices on tliew faces are wrinkles. No; they are battle wounds. They fought with trouble, with sickness. Thev God, they fought for heaven. When hard work was to be done for Christ, they were willing to take the heaviest end of it. They would do the most unpopular thing if they thought God wanted it done. But now they are full of physical weaknesses. They have been obliged to stop by the brook Besor. You must think that Christ has a very short memory if you think he has forgetten their faithful services. Do not fret, my aged friend,because you can not be in active service. You just tarry by the stuff, and wait for your share of the spoils. It makes me laugh to think how you will be surprised as the conqueror puts a ring on your hand and a chain of gold on your neck, and tells you to go in and dine with the King, I see you trying to back out, as unworthy, but the shining angels of God would group around you, aud some on one side and some on the other will push you right up and cry, “Here is anoth er old soldier of Jesus Christ!” And blessed spirits will rush down at.you saying, “Oh, yes; he was the means of saving my soul.” And the cry will go round the slrninig circles, “Come on! come oh ! Come up! come up! Welcome!” Great encouragement in this sub ject for old ministers. They now sit in pews instead of standing" in pul pits. Their name is marked emeri tus in the minutes of the General As sembly of consociation. Their hair white with the blossoms of the tree of life. They hear a text announ ced, and it brings up a sermon they preached fifty years ago on that sub ject. They preached more gospel on S4OO a year than some of their successors on $4,000. A lady says at the close of the seryice: “Doctor you don’t know me?” And the cleri cal octogenarian says: “It seems to me 1 have seen you before.” “Why, says the lady i u middle life, “you baptized me and you married me. 1 ’ Aud the old man says: ‘‘Oh yes; my memory is not as good as it used be.“ So they sit in all our churches, heroes of revival in 1820, in 1832, in 1857. They' have stood by along trench of graves cut through a half century, sounding the news of resur rection. The}' have been in more ifilaklavas and have taken more Se*- bastopols than you ever heard of. But now they are waiting by the brook Besor, and the 00,000 young and middle aged ministers now ta king thftbruu f.the.fray shall have no iu|e rewn.it -'. inn these pitired veterpis.

Barnett : Gen- have just been handed your communication, in which you state that it would afford you pleas ure tp present my name to the Leg islature, at its session in connection wtfi the office of Uni ted States Senawr from GeoAa for the term commencing on the 4th day off March next, and requesting me to mate I am willing to be a candWite for that position! Allow in So thank you for the in which you allude to from gentle men of high character and standing who have known me long and inti mately, 1 value. To be qualified “well afitl ably” to fill the position so lately occupied by the lamented Hill, implies the possession of no ■dinary capacity. With a con scious distrust for myself, I should have vohmcurily |Jirust mysell into the race for so exalted a pos# lion, but you and soyeral other prom - nent gentlemen from different secs tions of the State Having several weeks to become a candi date, I finally, after some hesitation, consented. I took no active mcas® pircs, to make my Candidas cy known. 1 stated to all who ap proached meoy the subject 'that, whilst, I should feci greatly 7 honored if elected to represent Georgia in the Senate of .the United States. I could not cisent to importune the membersthe Legislature to vote lor me. Rfter readi ness to accept the position, if ten dered tome, I left the matter entire ly in the hands of my friends. With them I shall continue to leave it un® til the selection of a Senator is made If the General Assembly shall see proper to elect me to fill that high office, I shall feel grateful, and will endeavor, with all %lelity, to %lis- its responsible duties. Having written this much, it almost needless for me to add tii* auy and every report to that effetdP that I have withdrawn or intend to withdraw from the lace, or that 1 favor or desire the success of any other candidate, is wliollj fmfound ed. * | With sentiments of high eoteem I remain, very truly yours, Clifford Anderspn. HON MONTGOMERY BLAIR Has written a letter, in which he says: “In the issue of the Washing ton Union ot the 14th of December, 1870, I expressed the opinion that the Presidency had been sold by cer tain of the Southern leaders. I had reason, then to believe the fact, sub sequently stated publicly by Ben Hill, that a leagu<L had then formed by enougliK>f them to con trol the House, to act with the .Re publicans on the Presidential ques tion; and the declaration of Mr. Lamar—who was, I believe, the head of that league—stated the ground upon which they had then deter mined to put themeelyes in carrying out the programmed But the pro gramme then CfMtemplated was abandoned Mr. Conkiing aud other Republican Senators would not stutify themselves by upholding such power in Ferry, "having at the arevious session of the Senate denied it in toto. This compelled the re sort to the Electoral Commission to effect the object previously intended to have been accomplished through Ferry, the only difference in the plan being that the power to defeat the will of the people was given to a Re publican commission, for which the Constitution furnished no pretext, instead of to a Republican Vice Pres ident, for which there was some col or of authority.” A REPRODUCTIVE CoMET. The present comet in the Eastern sky, which can be distinctly seen by everyone at early morning, is cer tainly the most rem®ficable one of all the modern comJ|l Prof. Lewis Swift, director of Warner Obser vatory, Y., states that the comet grazeothe sun so closely as to cause great disturbance, so much so that it has divided into no less than eight seperate parts, all of which can be distinctly seen by a good telescope. There is only one other instance on record wheri a comet has divided, that ODe being Biella’s comet of 1846, which seper ated into two parts. Applications have been made on Mr. H. H. Warn er by parties who have noted these cometary offshoots, claiming the S2OO. prize for each one of them. Whether the great comet will con. tinue to produce a brood of smaller comets remain be seen.
