(Letter from tbe Fool's Wile.
The jfeejlng Is terribly against Com
fort oti acoouut of Ills course toward the
colored people. There is quite a village
of tli em on the lower end of the planta
tion. They have a cliureh, a Sabbath
pclioel, and are to have a school next
year. You cannot Imagine how klmlj
they have been to u, and how much
they are attached to Comfort. They are
naviug a. y'traptea rneetinV as they
call it, how, I got Comfort to go with
me to one of their prayer meetings a
few nights ano. I bad heard a great
deal about them, but had never attended
one Tefere. It was strangely weird.
The"re were perhaps fifty present,
mostly middle-aged meu and women.
They, were singing, In a soft, low mono
tone, interspersed with prolonged ex
olamatory notes, a sort of rude hymn
which I was surprised to know was one
of their old songs In slave times. How
the chorus came to be endured in those
dayjf I Qflpnot imagine. It was
"Freei'free! free, ray Lord, free!
- JAP'."' walks de bfiubecly way!"

We told him wo had just looked in

would stay in the back part of the audl-
$H)!e Jerry cannot read" nor wrTle;
but he is a mau of strange Intelligence
and power. Unable to do work of auy
account, he la the faithful friend, moni
tor and dlreator of others. He has a
houao and piece of land, all paid for, a
good horo ,,. ,.. andi Wtu the alj' r

ment; so Comfort says, at leant Every
body seems lo have great r.,h! for fiB
character. .1 don't know , maUv
people Phave heard speak ol t.t, rA
ion. Mr. Savage used to say i,e i.aj
rather hear hlin pray than any oH.er
man on earth. He was much prlred bv
bi? Saef eve after be was disabled
ori-acfitlrIt or bis faTtlirdlrie(,s aud char'
acter.
Tlie mstjng was led last night by a
mulatto1 man' "named 'Hubert, who was
whatds now 'called aU ''old issue free
nigger" (freed before the war). Ho
seemed very anxious to display the fact
tbat be could read, and, with comical
prldef blunderedjthr6u6b .!de"free b'un-
ner'nflfiy-fird bymu" and a chapter of.
toerlpture. some of ills comments -on
passages of the latter were ludicrously
apt. ,YI Indeed baptize witb water, but
1ie"ttia itFafierTSe- sSffll b"spti?ef"L"I S T
witu ie iieiyutbMt and with nre," lie
read with (iifflculty. "Baptize wid
water," he repeated, thoughtfully. "We
all know what that Is; an' lilplizin' wid
tie Holy Ohos', dat's what w's come
here arter to-night. "AmenI" "llress
God!" "Darnow!" Hut bftptizln' wid

lizewltb fire ! I spec1 dat's the tryin

nace dal el'ars nut all de (Inn", hut
iiitta' be powetful hot !"
There was nothing remarkable at first
iu the exereiteo, except one man, who
wove back and forth mi his knveiatHl
"liouttxl, in a voice which might have
been beard a mile, for some fifteen min
utes, only one sentence "Gather 'em
In! 0 Lor, gather 'em in! Gather 'em
in! O Lor", gather 'em in!" In a
strange, singing tone, tlieelleetof which
tiou the nerves was something terrible.
Men shouted, women bcroained. Same
sprang from' their knees and danced,
snouting and toseitig their arms about
In an uneeusolous manner, reminding
me of what I had read of the dancing
dervishes of the Orient. One woman
fainted; and finally the see-sawing
shouter himself fell over. Some water
was poured on his head, a slow, sooth
ingliymn was sung, and in live minute
the assemblage was as )uiet as any
country prayer meeting in Michigan.
Kor me, I found myeif rlingiiigloCim
fort'sarm in almost hysterical fright. I
begged him to take ine away, but am
vwy glad now that he did not.
After a time Uncle Jerry raised his
head, which had all the time been
bowed upon his knees since the meeting
began, and, lifting bis thin hand
toward the people, said, In a soft, olear
voice :
"Let us all kneel down an' pray one
mo' short pm'r! short pra'r!"
He knelt with his face toward us. The
guttered candle on the rough pine table
threw Its-flickering light over hlni, as,
with upturned face and clasping hands,
lie "talked with God." oh. how slmnlv
and directly. Ami. as ha tiraved. n
strange light seemed to come over his
brown face, set Iu its whit frame of
snowy Jialr and beard. He prayed for
all, except himself, and seemed to bring
the cares ami troubles of all before the
throne of grace, as if be had tbe key to
the heart oT eacli.
Then he oume to pray for ua "the
strauger fren' whom Gk1 has raised up
an led, iu his mysterous way, lo do us
good-bless him, O Lord. In basket and
sto', heart an' home! He don't kuow
what bt?a got afo' iiiai ! Stay bis ban
an' keep him strong aud brave !''
ijhi l can never reproduce the strange
tenderness and faith of this prayer. I
leaned my bead on Comfort's shoulder,
and the tears fell like rain as I listened.
All at once there was slleuce.. The
voice of prayer had ceaeed ; vet the
prayer did not seern ended. I raised
my eyes aud looked. Utiole Jerry still
knelt at his chair, every worsbitier still
Kneeling in ins place; but every heaihrc!
was turned and every eve was fastenedT
on lilni. His eyes were fixed on what?
He was looking upward, as if hesaw be
yond the earth. His fnoe was set in
rigid lines, yet lighted tin with a look of
awiul joy. iis breath came slow aud
sobblugly, but, aside from that, not a
muscif ruovefl. rvot a word was uttered,
but every look was fastened on him
with hushed and fearful expectancy.
"Hain't bin dal way but once afo1
sence de surrender," I heard one of the
wawerr whisper, uniter bar breath, to
another.
Five minutes perhaps ten minutes
elapsed, and lie hail not spoken or
moved. It was fearful, the Urrlble si-
lenee, and that fixed. Immovable face
aud, stony figure. Tbera wasjometblug
preternatural about it.
At length there came a q iiver about
iiib urn. iue e.Vas lost their ttxitv
'1716 Hands winch had rested on tbe
clialr were clasped together, aud a look
oi iiivine rapture swept across the up
turned faee, as he exclaimed, in a tone
rainy nuniened with ecstatic Joy:
"I sees Him ! I sees Him ! Dir he
is i" Aud tie indited, with a thin ami
tremuitng liauil, toward the farther cor
nor of the room. "I sees Him wid de
orowu ot salvation on His head de
keys o' hebben a-lranein' iu hlsetrdle
God's keys for de white pearl gates
wiu ue urass-utaic ou Holiness an' de
mantle oh Kii;liteouene-w ! Dar He Is.
a-wulkln among de eaifflleslirks ylt !
He'9 a-comln' nigh us bress His holy
name : a-ioomir arter ills neonte. an'
a-EHthertn' on 'em in 1"
I cannot tell you whatastrauee rhao-
aody fell from bis Hps; but It ended at
it began suddenly aud without warn
ing. The glorified look faded from his
faee. Tbe sentence died midway oa his
Hps. His eyes regained their conscious
look aud ran around the hushed oIthIm
of altent faces, while a knowledge of
wnui n an tuKen maoe seemed first (n
flash upon him. He covered his face
wiiu ms nanus and sank down with n
groan, exolalmlng, In apologetic tones:
u i u Lor"! don knowest-de
weauuesg oo tly sarvant! Snar" him f
spar' bim!"
The meeting ended, and we went
home. Somebew I caouet gef, oyer the
feeling that the little log-church is a
place where one has indeed seen God.
They told us afterward that Uncle
Jerry often bad these "spells," , tll0y
call them, wlienever there ras a great
battle (lending or imminent during the
war, anu tney coum always tell which
way tbe fight bad gone by what be sahl
in theee trances. They say lie knows
nothing of what he says at such times.
I asked him about it one day. He sim
ply said :
"I can't 'spialn It, Missus. Taars
like It's a cross I hex specially to carry.
It's made me a heap o' trouble. Bin
whipped for it heaps o' times; an', 'sides
ilat, I alters feel ez If I'd lived 'bout ten
years when I comes out o' one o' dem
pells. Can't understand It, Misses; but
Uncle Jerry Ml quit In some of dem
Kpells ylt !'
Enjoy the blessings of tills day if God
sends them ; and theeyjl bear'patleuily
and sweetly. Frtrrihrsilay is ttura; we
are deal! to yesterday, aud we are not
born to-morrow. Jeremy Taylor.

and tnanikliis to illustrate ht lectuies.
Dlt. PAUL M. URENAN bos lieeo IS years
lecturing im the Uiwsof Life and llealtlt. In
bis private and public lectures be has taught
men and women Hie true system of life, how
to be healthy and happy, if they would only be
guided by his wle counsel, liutall cannot bear
Ills dpllj-htrul and instructive lectures, norcan
be tell even-thing necessary for satferliue hu
manity to know from the public roitrum be
fore a promiscuous audience. There remains
much to be learned from him, as Ills experi
ence extends over broad Ilelds of active pro
fessional life. This kuowledgeso necessary to
the welfare of sufferers can only be gleaned by
private Prolesslonal Consultation at his ohiee.
Hls exierience In the various parts ol Europe
and America gives him such opportunities of
learning the delicate diseases which Ibe hu
man family nre prone to, their mode of treat
ment mid permanent cure, as no other physi
cian on tliw Paclfie Coast can claim. He lias
Hit only treated these diseases most sucees
fully, buChas made them a life study, as a few
iiiniuenu.' consultation will prove. ,
He tuts become an exert In the treatment of
disease, weakness and derangement or tlierw-l-rolueilve
organs of both nialo and female,
Including diseases caused by tbe
FOLI.I11S or YOUTH,
Such asSPERMATOKRUlCA.orSeVIXALWEAC-
KBMi,orLii or i'mirmrt Vitalitt. Nearly
two-lbintsof all the Chronic Diseases spring,
either directly or Indirectly, from some de
rangement of tbe sexual system, and yet this
subject is neglected by the majority of the
medical pro tension.
IT IS TRUE
That persons who are unfortunate enough to
be aUlicted by any form ot sexual disease have
a delicacy In calling upon the proper physi
cian In time, from a sense of modesty, and
sometimes from ignorance, and perm It those
diseases to exist until their constitutions be
come corrupted, their organization broken
down, and the hope of future bappluess blight
ed, until death becomes a welcome messenger
lo carry them out or their miserable existence.
Those who call in time upon DR. PAUL M.
IJHEN AN need have no fear b'll what he will
restore them to perfect health and vigor, make
Ihetr bodies pure and their minds content.1I
they will only follow his ad vice and treatment.
