F arewell —Rev. M. A. Williams, who for 20 years has been the pastor of the U. P. Church, in Ashland has re signed bis place to Rev. J. B. Donald son a gentleman lately from the East. i “Time keeps ringing his changes” and Ashland, since Mr. Williams first took charge of the pastorate, has grown from a hamlet of perhaps a half dozen bouses to a village of seven or eight, hundred inhabitants. DnriDg all these long years his coming has been looked for on every third Sunday with almost as much confidence as the day itself, and he has won the universal respect of the people by the intelligence of his dis course, the purity of his life and the sympathy he has always manifested for them, and it will bo hard for another to fill the place of one who lias stood by us so faithfully during all the changes, twenty years have brought, But he will remain in our valley, and we hope many times in coming years, to greet him in the Granite City and have our bands shaken with the old time enthu siasm. -------- ---- O nly a S aurian . —It was only a poor mute amphibian—a sort of miniaturo crocodile,, minus_ the horny coat of mail—left broiling on the hot granite street by some hoodlum hand. The poor reptile was out of its element and as the gay crowds passed it heedlessly by, its parching skin and fading eye told only too plainly the depths of an agony its tongue could not speak. Who thought that a creeping tiling like this deserved any sympathy, and yet we are taught that from this primordial type of earthly lift» has been evolved during the course of countless ages, the verti cal biped, which we call man. Then all the faculties which so distinguish our noisy species from the lower ani mals may exist in their germinal state, even in the brain of a water dog. Who knows but that the poor mute saurian as he lies under a stone in the creek to day, may not long to express in some way his gratitude to the generous heart ed friend, who restored him yesterday to his own pure element.
