Ireland,speaking at Rods ock last evening,
said the truth was there was no ground
left for argument between the govern
ment and the people on one side and the
Laud League nnd its leaders on the other;
that the league leaders had unhappily
chosen to cairy tho issue into a quite dif
ferent field—that of force. He trusted aud
believed there would be no armed insur
rection iu Ireland, and that no excited
bodies of men would compel an armed
force to sl.ed blood; but still, the methods
of tho league were such as could only be
met by force in some shape.

Th Telegraph says: “Nothing can be

The wording of the league manifesto
is exceedingly violent. It reminds the

The military power has no weapons, aim

appropriate remarks, concluding by say
ing that the column now to bo raked was
to commemorate, not only the victory of
the colonies, but the part taken in that vic
tory by France. The recognition and ac
knowledgment of tho aid given by France
to this country was a solemn duty left by
the Continental Congress to its successors,
and now, after the lapse of a hundred
years, the Congress of thirty-eight States
anil fifty millions of people are fulfilling
that duty.
The cornerstone of the monument was
laid with Masonic ceremonies, under the
direction of tho Grand Master of Vir

an historic one, made from timber from
Commodore Perry’s flag ship, the Law

laying the cornerstone of the monument
at Monmouth, N. J., and of the Egyptian
obelisk in the Central Park iu New York.

A Baptist Gives Ills Opinion About
Presbyterians- .Backwoods Presell-
Ins and Wit.
A lady correspondent of the NewYork In
dependent gives a sketch of a sermon she
lieird in Georgiw' nearly half a century
ago, from which we give an extract:
The preacher was apparently about
fifty years of age, large, muscular and
well proportioned. On entering the pul
pit he took off his coat and hung it ou a
nail behind him, then openened his col
lar aud wristbands, and wiped the per
spiration from his neck *nd bands. He
was ciad iu striped cotton homespun, and
his shirt was of the same material. He
had traveled several miles that merning,
and seemed almost overcome by the heat.
Bnt the brethren sung a couple of hymns
while he was fanning and cooling off, and
when he rose be looked comfortable and
good-natured.
He bad preached there once or twice
before, but to most of tbe audience ho
was a stranger. Hence, be thought it
necessary to anuounce himself, which he
did as “Old Club-Ax Davis, P nn Scriven
county, a Half-hard and^rWIf-soft-shell
Baptist.”
“I have given rnysolf that name,” said
he, “because I believe tho Lord elected
me from all eternity, to go ahead in tbo
backwoods and grub out a path and blaze
the way for other men to follow. After
the the thickest of it Is cut away, a good
warm Methodist brother will cone along
and take my trail, and make things a lit
tle smoother and a good deal noisier.
And after all the underbrush is cleared
out, and the owls and wolves are skeered
bacg, and rattlesnakes is killed off, a
Presbyterian brother, in black broadcloth
and white cravat, will come along and
cry for decency and order. And they’ll
both do good^in their sphere. 1 don’t de
spise a larnt man, even when he don’t
dress and think as I do. You couldn’t
pay me enough to weal - broadcloth, sum
mer ner winter, and you couldn’t pay a
Presbyterian brother euough to go with
out it in dog days.
“God didn’t make us all alike, my
brethren; but every man has Ills own
sphere. When God bas a place to fill, Uo
makes a man and puts him in it. When
He wanted Gen. Jackson He made him,
and set him to fightin’ Injuns and the
English; when He wanted Geo. Whitfield,
He made him to blow the Gospel trumpet
as uo man ever blowed it; and when He
wanted Old Cluti-Ax Davis, He made
him, aud set him to grubbin’ in the back-
woods. *
“But mv shell isn’t so hard but I can
see good points In everybody; and as for
lie Presbyterians, they are a long ways
head of us Baptists and Methodists in
some things. They raise their children
better than any people on tho lace of tbe
earth. Only a few days ago a Methodist
class leader said to me: ‘Brother Club-
Ax. I was born a Methodist, I was raised
a Methodist, and by the grace of God I
hope to die a Methodist; but, thank God,
I’ve a Presbyterian wife to raise my chil
dren.’ And I believe, my brethren, if the
Lord should open the way for rwto mar
ry again, I’d try my best to fiud VPresby
terian woman, and run my chances of
breakiu’ her into the saving doctrines of
feet-washln’ and immersion afterwards.”
Just at this point he was interrupted by
two spotted hounds that had been con
tinually ruuuing up and down the pulpit
stairs. Oue of them jumped upon the
seat and began to gnaw his coat-tail, in
which was something he had brought
along for lunch. He turned slowly
around, aud took him by the ears aud
tail and threw him out of tho window
behind him. as easily as if ft had been a
young kitten. The oilier took warnin
I was pitched head-toremost as much
as ten foot, into a deep gully, and

wasn’t broke on the spot.

not without bowling and yelping as If it
had been half killed. He then turned to
the audience, and said, smilingly: “St.
Paul exhorted the brethren to ‘Beware of
dogs.’ I wonder what he would do if he
were in my place this morning? It ap
pears like I am ‘compassed about with
docs,’ as David said he was.”
Ho had scarcely commenced preaching
again before thore was a terrible squeal
ing and kicking among tho mules and
horses that were tied to the trees close
by. He put his head out of the window
and said: “No harm done, brethren. Just
cretur with a side-saddle on has broke
loose. Will somo brother head the ani
mal? for no sister can walk home this hot
day.”
Quiet being restored, be continued:
“Well, my brethren, I will now try to
say what I alluded to about the Presby
terians. . , . , , ,
“As I said before, they raise their clnl
dren a heap better than we do. They be-
have better in church, and keep Sunday
better, aud read the Bible and larn the
catechism better than ours do. I declare;
mv brethren, their children are larnt that
Westminster catechism by tho time they
can begin to talk plain.
“It ain’t three weeks since I if as out
cattle huntin’—tor two of my yearlin’s
had strayed off { and I stopped in at old
Brother Harker’s, on Mud Creek, and
took dinner. He’s a Deacon in tlso Pres
byterian church over thar. Well, as true
as I stand here, brethren, Sister Harker
had her little gal a-standin’ right before
her, with toes just even with the crack o’
the floor, and tier bands wus a haugin’
down by her side, and her mouth turned
up like a chicken when it drinks, and she
was a puttin’ this question to her out o’
that catechism:
“‘What are the benefits which in this
life do either accompany or flow from jus
tification, adoption aud sanctification?’ ’
“Now, the question itself was enouRli
to break tbe child down. But when she
had to begin and say that question all over
(for that’s the way ft was in the book)
and then hitch the answer to it, and which
all put together made this: ‘The benefits
which in tiris life do either accompany or
flow from justification, adoption and sanc
tification are peace of conscience, joy in
the Holy Ghost, increase of grace, and
perseverance therein to the end*—I
thought the child was the greatest wonder
I’d ever seen io ail toy life. She tuck it
right through, too, without balkin’or
iuissin’ the first word. And she spoke so
sweet and she looked so like a little atigel
that before 1 knowed It tho tears was a
runuln’ down my cheeks as big as buck
shot. I’ve seen the day wheu 1 could have
mauled and split a tliousan’ rails quicker
and easier than I could larnt that thing
and said it off like she did. •
“Now, my brethren, that child didu t
understand or know tho meanin’ of one
word of tliet. It put mo up to all I knew
to take ft in myself. But just let that
Presbyterian young un grow up, aud eve
ry word of that catechism will come hack
to her, and her character will stiffen up
under It, and she’ll have the backbone of
the matter in her fbr life.
“Now, I can’t put things into ray chil
dren that way. Nothin’ don’t stay, any
how. Its like drivin’ a nail into a rotten
log.”
Tills last remark I never forgot. For
thirty years afterward, as I would stand
at the blackboard trying to fix rules and
principles in the miud of a dull pupil, this
remark would come back toj me with its
peculiar pertinency.
“I tell you, my brethren,” he continued,
‘•if our children had a little more cate
chism and tbe Presbyterians a little less,
ft would be better for both.
“Then we don’t pray in our families
like they Jo. I know' their prayers are
mighty long, and tiiey pray all over crea
tion; but, after all, ft’s tho right way. It’s
better than prayin’ too little.
“Now my faliisr and mother was good
Baptists, sml raised their children to be
honest and industrious; but I never lieered
one ot them pray in my
most a gtnwn man before I ever prayed a
prayer myself, and ft was on this wise.
“There was to he a big met tin over In
Elbert county, and 1 knowed a pretty git!
over thar that I wanted to go aud see. So
I borrowed a little Jersey wagin, which
was a stylish thing In them day;, and

“We went, and had a glorious lime—
