FAITH IN GOD. AND FAITH
MAN.
Mr. Editor: If you see proper you
may publish this scrap, if not, burn it
up and say nothing about it. I have
never written any thing in my life for tho
public; but am impressed to-night to
drop a few thought*. 'Tie said in the
Scripture, “have faith in God yet
men complain and murmur—men who
profess to know God in the forgiveness
of their sins. Can a man have faith in
God who complains of hard times to
come? What does man know about the
time to come? Is not man's hiud eight
much better than the one in front?
What cau a man see to morrow t Non¬
sense to complain to-day of the hard
times of to morrow. Why did the
blessed Son of God say iu the book of
Matthew, vtake no thought for the
things of to morrow?’, I think he
meant, be ready to-day—know your sins
are pardoned —live to day as your last.
I say reader, in the fear of God. it is
wise to live to-day as jour last, and
have faith in God, who alone, can see
the morrow. Then if to-morrow cornea,
and you live, then you will Bee it. If
you do not live through tho night, you
have lived to-day, and have had faith
in God you may feel like all is well.
Friends, we must walk by faith aud
not by sight. But first of all was the
bard question asked, “why take thought
for the tbiogs of to-monow.'' uf
coarse wo understand that in the past.
Sufficient has been the day uuto the
evil thereof. Why not hare faith in God
and do your duty, and expect it to so
continue, ‘sufficient is the day unto the
evil tbeieof." Complainers troubling
over the future, not ^preparing to meet,
it. Talk to them: Why do you not go
to eburoh? A says,‘I have something
to do to-morrow—must rest to-day,
(Sunday) and be ready for Monday —
not knowing that they will see Monday.
Lotus go to church to-aay, “No, I
have began son* piece of work—onnsf
get it done. To-morrow 1 will have to
to do this or that.' Not knowing they
will need tbe time of to morrow. Have
they faith in God, or in man' They
l ave soma sort of faith in self. Well,
brother, then can’t you help the preach
er. lie is in need—his family must be
fed. Then they say ‘no, I don’t have
any faith in tho man no how.’ But it
is not faith iu a man that will save you,
but faith in God. Can a man believe
God's word who will not help feed his
ministers ’’ I say not. Why? Because
it is said iu Malicbi. “Will a man rob
God? Ye have robbed uie, oven this
whole nation. Bring therefore all the
goods aud prove me herewith, and see
if i will notopsn the windws of Heaven,
and pour out such a blessing that thore
will not be room ouough to receive.'
aud yet we eay we cannot divide, lest
our faoiilss become in want. Have we
faith iu God Lotus see—put the Lord
to the test, and experience for ourselves
that the word ofjpropbccy is true. Try
the Lord by giviug aud believiug, and
then it can be said or us, we have faith
in God, as well as can be said by us, we
hate faith in God. It matters not who
our preacher is, we are under obliga¬
tions to take care of him; and show
the outside world that we have faith in
God. It is our duty, and we ought to
do our duty.
Now, I am sick of bearing preachers
explain to their breiberiug and to siu>
uers, that they themselves have so little
faith in God, aud so much faith iu mau,
while at tbe same time they preach,
•have faith in God. They tell it that
thsy have not much faith, by saying if
such aud eucb churches does not pay
more, I will quit attending them Weli,
I thiuk they have but little faith in God.
Brothor preacher, you cauuot get to
Heaven unless you preach. God said
•go, and lo I am w ith you alway. Elijah
was fed. ‘No good thing will I withhold
from you.' But you must walk upright
ly, 'Once I was zealous; but now I am
old: yet have I not seen the righteous
forsaken, nor bis seed begging bread.’
But you mnst be righteous. Then,
brother, go preach the gospel, and have
faith in God, and the Lord will see to it
you will bo fsd. Do not forget that
Jesus said ‘the poor have the gospel
preached to them.’ Well, you say God
says for you to preach—well, do it.
God says for the people to care for thee.
Well, they will do it. As you are im¬
pressed to preach, so they are impressed
to take care of you.

The above ia the title of a newspaper
published iu Now York, iu the interest
of the Natioual Greenback party. As
we ar? not takiDg much slock in politics
just now, aud whether its politics be
right or wrong, we leave the public to
decide; hot we must say it is a good
family newspaper—containing a great
deal of valuable, and general informa¬

low prico of $1 00 peryear.

THE CONTEST.
Thor* is a contest, not between cap¬
ital and labor, in this case; bnt between
capital and a selfish prejudice, which
is impeding tbe progress of enterprise,
in this aud all other countries where it
exists. It is to bo lamented, that thore
aro a few instances in our county. Cap
italisf who are willing to invest and
spend their mnn*” among us, should be
invited tn ’omn, and when they do
tvnit, 1 ; y should be treated, just
as • r ar citizens of the country. We do
-sot meat that they should have prefer
r *• (P-Lit cud privileges, but only each
i a ■ necessary for the operation of their
-joterprlee. if toobtaiu this some one is
damaged, ft aj reasonable corupensas
tion be paid, and let the work goon,
li we have not the capital, and desire
to e*e our.country prosperous, we must
invite and induce capital from abroad.
THE BIRD’S EYE.
We have received from L. H. Rogers,
New York, a “Bird s Eye view|of the
English Language,’ a regular monu¬
ment cf p “ience. The sheet ia 22x38
inches, aud cootains more information
for persons who write letters than we
ever eaw or thought could be arranged
on oue sheet. Price 25cts. Tbe fiiat
part contains Rules for Spelling and
Punctuation, also Rules for using Capital
Letters and Letter Writing. Next is a
“Bird's Eye View of the Correct Spell¬
ing of 25,000 Words.’’ Every word is
before you at a single glance, and is
easily found by a system of indexing,
that is wonderful, thorough, and com¬
plete. There is also a “Bird’s Eye
View of 20,000 Synonyms,” which is of
great asaistanoe to writers. One of tbe

Fmh Air in the Bedroom.
How much air can be safely admitted
into a sleeping or living room is a com
mou question. Rattier, it Bhould be
considered, how rapidly air cau be ad¬
mitted, without injury or risk and at
how low a temperature. We cannot
hav« too much fresh air. so long as we
are warm enough, and are not exposed
to draughts What is a draught? It
is a swift current of air at a lower tem¬
perature than the body, which robs eith¬
er tbe whoia body, or an exposed part,
of its heat so rapidly as to disturb the
equilibrium of our circulation and give
us cold. Y’oung and healthy persons
can habituate themselves to sleeping in
even a strong draught, as from an open
wiudow if they cover themselves in cold
weather, with an abundance of bed¬
clothes. But those who have been
long accustomed to being sheltered
from the outer air by sleeping in warm¬
ed and nearly or quite shut up rooms,
are too susceptible to cold to bear a
direct draught of cold air. Persons
over seventy years of age, moreover,
with lower vitality than iu their youth,
will not bear a low temperature even
in tho air they breathe. Like hot
house plants they may be killed by a
winter night’s chill and must be pro¬
tected by warmth at all times. As a
rule we may say that, except for the
most robust, the air which enters at
night itfto a sleeping chamber should,
in cold weather be admitted gradually
only by cracks or moderate openings;
or should have its force broken by some
interposed obstacle, as a curtain etc ,
to avert its blowing immediately upon
a sleeper in his bed. The ancieat fash¬
ion, however, of having bed curtains,
which exclude almost all the air has
rightly become almost obsolete. No
wonder that psopl# dream horrid dreams
and wake in the rrorniug wearied rath¬
er than refreshed when they sleep in
rooms sealed up tightly on every side;
breathing over and again their own
bieaths, which grow more poisouous
with every hour of the night —Amer¬

Cooking Fruit.
The season of summer fruit is ap*
proachiog—straw bo ries will soon be
here, and these will be followed in
quick successions by other sub-acid
fruits, and it may bo well to repeat a
hint we have often made on the mauoer
of using sugar in cooking fruit. Every
housewife should krow that sugar boil¬
ed with an acid, ift it be but for three
minutes, will be ccfivarted into glucose
which ------ ----------_______ is the form'of sugar found iu
JBWOftS apple*/ f\*fc?|<fubd of sugar has
f.8 much sweetning power as pounds
of glucose, lu other words oue pouDd
of sugar stirred into the fruit, after it
is cooked and while yet warm, will
make the fruit as sweet as 2i pounds
added while the fruit is boiling. Save
your sugar oy a little chemical knowl¬
edge.
A merchant was asked how many
children he had, and he replied. “Five
boys, and each boy has two sisters.”
Bow many children were there?
