“Praise God From Whom All
Blessings Flow,” is felt deep with¬
in the hearts of those victorious in
the selection of those they believe to
be their friends to fill the various
offices, and, in our opinion, the
people have chosen well.
Anyhow, they have chosen.
Those who supported candidates
and did it eontientiously, who
have gone down in defeat, have
proved their loyalty to what they
thought was the proper and right
cause.
But he who fought with a knowl¬
edge or belief that his cause was
wrong—was against public interest
—can’t but feel the dreadful sting
of the deadly reptile that he has
permitted to entwine itself about
bis conscience, that be hangs his
head in shame.
Many are the men who glorify
the light of their souls in their
struggle to advance the onward
march of the world to a higher and
better state. They are men to be
admired; men to be appreciated;
men worthy to be placed in high
public positions of the greatest
responsibility.
Many are the men, also, whose
ambition and hellish selfishness
steep then souls in the blackest
political mire of pollution in their
efforts to win, regarding nothing
too low, nothing too rotten,nothing
too dirty for them to do in an effort
to further their cause.
But while all of this is truth,
let us lend them “soap” and a
“towel” that they may clean them¬
selves and refrain from such again.
Believing that our readers would
appreciate our efforts in giving a
more correct statement of the re¬
turns of Wednesday's primary, we
have delayed the publication of
this week’s issue one day.

THE CLEVELAND COURIER, CLEVELAND, GEORGIA.
THE CHURCH.
By an Old Dotard.
One need not trouble about seeking
Christ above tbe clouds, in the Sanctu¬
ary, or in any Temple or Church built
by roan, for the true Christ is the Divine
Indweller, the God within the human
being, for “the Kingdom of God is with¬
in you.'' It is the blending of the per
-onalily of the "Son" with the “Father,”
the Divine Spirit, that such an individual
becomes a Christ-Man. The real Church
of God is Man, and those souls are united
with their Spirits, they are members of
the one Church, or the Anointed (I Cor.
iii, Pi, 1 7; vi, 19). Houses of wood, stone,
or other materials built by man, are
sooner or later disfigured and crushed to
the earth, but the Living Tempie of For¬
mations is of Divine construction, and its
inhabitant is Divine; this is why that
Temple by right ie completely eternal
and immortal. The new Gospel of Hu¬
manity will not be accomplished by the
usual methods of pulpit and Church
effort, but by a new class of labourers,
and Wjo multitudes are not to he attract¬
ed by gorgeous edifices, pulpit oratory
andsuch like.
The doors of Trinity Protestant Epls
copal Church, New York, are closed to
the poor at a cost of $ 100 , 000 ; the rich
only can enter such costly portals. Is
not this a terrible and sad travesty upon
the wandering life of Him who said: “I
am the door,” and who had nowhere to
lay His weary head. Those that try to
enter by $ 100,000 doors, enter some other
way. That $7,000,000 Vanderbilt man¬
sion in New York would comfortably
house 70,000 poor people, if cut up into
$500 houses. Which do you consider the
better condition: one man to live in a
.$7,000,000 mansion, or 70,000 people to
live in homes of their own! If people
would only think that the price of eternal
life is the sacrifice of all that mortals hold
dear: ‘ ‘Sell all thou hast and give to the
poor,” it might be rather better for them.
Our big daily papers, speaking of the
late Prof. 1>. Swing, the great Chicago
Divine, say. ‘‘He left nearly $100,000 in
Bonds, Stocks and Mortgages.” Bishop
Ireland is also referred to as having re
eently placed a Mortgage on $500,000
worth of personal property; Cardinal
Gibbons and several others of hiH frater¬
nity are said to tic millionaires. Can any
of our readers, or any of our “Divines,”
tell us just how much “personal proper¬
ty" Christ owned, or can anybody in¬
form us how many dollars’ worth of
‘‘Bonds, Stocks, and Mortgages” He left
behind when the Jewish “Divines” or
High-Priests and others killed him?
We fill God's blue heavens with gilded
spires, domes, and weather-codks, we
clothe our Churches in the very costliest,
manner possible—but alas! is it not Man
himself who is, or rather ought to he—the
Temple of God—a Temple not made with
hands, and yet our poor, forlorn, and
starving children wander over this cold
earth without an attic to sleep in, with¬
out a lmy-loft even to repose their weary
limbs, or a crust of bread to appease
their famishing hunger. There arc more
dens for the sale of spirituous liquors in
one street in the city of Jerusalem now,
than were formerly to be found in all
Jerusalem, Bethlehem, and Hebron.
Such hellish pitfalls are the work of those
who call themselves Christians, who
proj'eu Christianity, and the same kind
of demoniacal work is pursued and en¬
couraged l>y this same sort of people all
the world over. Our mouldy theology
of the pulpit, our stupid ignorance and
superstition of what Truth really is,
is only a popular social appendage and
business convenience, a most miserable
imitation of what genuine Christianity
ought to lie. There are by far too many
who use their religion as a child does a
rattle to amuse themselves on Sundays,
when they cannot get into other mischief,
and a long face in (lie Church does not
atone for the love ami worship of a long
purse in the pocket.
Cast your glance for a moment upon
the tlimisand-Aiid-one steeples of stone,
lime, ami wood, which tower tip from
compounds in the midst of death and
desolation, surrounded by whited sep¬
ulchres tilled with dead men’s bones.
Enter their portals and what do you find;
upon every side you are surrounded by
the ghastly emblems of Death—a dead
Christ, a dyiug Savior pictured on the
walls „ and . preached , . from , the .. pulpits, , , but
tlie q J( . glorious glorious and and ever-bright ever-bright theme of a
living Christ and hope of Immortality is
I'ldi'ffl nr ever touched upon. We are
with Death, but little or no
hope for Redemption, for we may well say
"
:t\v;»y niv Lora, anu I know not where
fll(} havt , laM , hey see k the dead
p,.,h of Jesus, and this alone they wor
ship. This constant harping also upon
eternal punishment and endless misery
in a lake of literal Fire is nothing but
1 i'c C hristianity. “Distance lends
enviiautmeut to the view, so also does
'* lend tear. An imaginary Hell in some
far-off unknown region, is terrible to
cont< mplate! ; hut a Hell right hereon
earth is scarcely noticeable to many of
ur pious and noisy pulpit exponents,
" *1*1 generally utterly deaf and re
gardless of the looks of pity of the father
loss, the widow and the orphan, who,
like as in the parable of the good Samar
itan. whom the Driest inhumanly passes
by, starves with cold -and hunger, help
less, homeless, friend !cm and destitute,

We have adopted a new.
9 Novel Manner of rule in our household,
Avoiding Family Jars namely, that there shall pos¬
itively be no discussion of
By Walter B. Palmer, PiUjbargh, Pa. any troublous subject dur¬
ing dinner, nor for one hour
thereafter. We don’t bar
talk, far from it; we can laugh and chatter all we want to; but no dis¬
cussion ; the reason therefor being this:
We are naturally a nervous bunch, well meaning but touchy; what
our friends would politely call “high strung, sensitive people,” our enemies,
scrappy, and when we get to discussing things—well, even with the best
intentions all around, each member of the family is apt to hold his own
opinion pretty strenuously and to express it pretty vigorously; and while,
truly, ours is a very happy family, yet, when we had got fairly launched
on one of those aiscussive sessions we could manage to spoil our dinner
and to make ourselves, all around, pretty miserable.
It was poor business, and so we have adopted this new rule, positively
prohibiting discussion of our troubles at table; with results thus far
most felicitous.
