The translators of ouv coin- moil Bible say It means twelve dififerent kinds of fruits in one year. Albert, Barnes says In moans twelve crops of thn sumo kind of fruit in ono year. Not able to de- cido which is tho more accurate Irnnsla- tion. I adopt. )»o4h. If It moan twelve dif¬ heavenly ferent kinds of if frttli:, it: dOcbwes variety lit the jovi kind Of It fruit; moans It t welve crops of same declares abun¬ dance tit herivehly joy, and they aro both trudi Variety? Oil, yes! Not an eternity with nothing but music—that Oratorio would be too protracted. Not an eternity of procession on white horses—that would be too long in the stirrups. Not an eternity of watching tho river tlmt would bo too much of tho pJcutrosfpiO; fruits ilitt Not an eternity of plucking from tree of life— that would bo tod much of thrt heavenly and orchard. But all manner of varieties, I will te.il you of at least twelve of tlioso varieties: Joy of divine worship; joy over the victories of the Lamb who was HlfiluJ counting joy over tho repentant dinners; jOy of re¬ old friends; but Own rescue; joy of patriarchs, embracing evangelists joy at recognition and of joy apostles, martyrs; of ringing harmonies; joy of reknil tlng broken friendslup; j<iv at, tho joy explanation of Provi¬ botlic* dential mysteries; at walking the vards of gold; joy »tnd ut looking fit walls green and with erntiraid* bind with sapphire, crimson with jasper, and atlash with ame¬ thyst, entered through swinging gates, their posts, the hinges and their panels of richest pearl; joy that there is to bo no sub¬ sidence, no reucticfn, no terminus to tho felicity. While thoro is enough of Dio pomp of tho city about heaven for those who liko tho city best, I thank God there is enough in the Bible about country scenery in heaven to please those of us who were born in the country and never got over it. Now, you may have tho streets of gold In heaven, give me tlie orchards, with twelve manner of fruits, and yielding their fruit every month; and the leaves of the trees are for “the healing of the nations; and there shall bo no more curse, but the throne of God and the Lamb shall he. in it; and His servants shall serve Him; ami they shall see His face, and ifis name shall be in their foreheads; and there shall be no night thoro; and tlmy need no caudle, neither light of the sun, for tho Lord God glveth them light; and they shall reign forever and over.” But just think of a place so brilliant that tho noonday sun shall ho removed from the mantle of the sky because it Is too feeble ataperl Yet most of all am I impressed with the fact that I am not yet fit for that place, nor you either. By the reconstructing anti sanc¬ tifying grace of Christ wo need to bo made all over. And let ns be getting our passports ready if we want to get into that country.

I sat down un¬ der His shadow with great delight and His fruit wus sweet to my taste;” aud there It may be found that to-day wo learned the danger of hankcrkig after one thing more, and that religion is a luxury, and that there is a divine antidote for all poisons, and that wo had created in us an wholesome appetite for heaven, and that it was a nod saving thing for us to have discoursed on the pomology of tho Bible, or (iod among the orchards.

TRIED TO EXTERMINATE FAMILY. Report, of n Horriible TniKcily In Hale County, Alabama.

The petition declares that sentenced Bartley cannot bo sued, since lie is to the penitentiary for twenty years. His attorneys declare that, under the state law no convict can he sued.
