I never saw a man that was not afraid
of the judgement of God.
Everybody ought to keep good com
pany. -There is not an angel in heaven
proof against bad company.

Twelve years ago I consecrated my
self to God, and since that time have

Amman's hates and his likes deter
mine character; a man's infirmities de

If you are ready to say to-night,

right where God can put his hand on
you. ' ' ' ' .
I would rather associate with a dog
than with a profane swearer. I say
things that sound strange, but I've
weighed 'em.
If you want to know where all the
gratitude of my heart centres to-day I
will tell you. I go back to that
August day when I got Christ.
Religion is a reality with me, as
much so as the fact that I've got four
fingers on each hand. "I believe," is i
the ground on which I stand.
What is judgement! It is the equi
ble adjustment of all issues. What is
it in the ecclesiastical sense? It is
the final session of the Church in
heaven.
If you will let me, I would cut loose
the last ligament that binds you to sin
and let you swim out into the bottom
less, boundless ocean of the love of God.
Perhaps if you don't talk of your

cultivated and enlightened concience
on the face of the earth. The saddest
sisjht the world ever saw is an outraged
conscience that lias been outraged by

Thank God for a bee-line to a good
World. Do you know what that
means? The bee, after going from
flower to flower with its velvet trdad,

above the tree-tops, and makes a bee-

Many fellows pray for rain with
their tubs bottom side up. God can'

something thunder.
It is not asking much of you to ask
you to believe on the Lord J esus Christ.
I believed on him for twenty-five yearr

I have as much right to go out and

A correspondent at Washington,
says the President ard the administra

Making Syrup from Beets.
We were pleased to meet with a
gentleman, -Mr. - Page Minor, who
is interested in works situated on the
Columbia river, near Cape Horn, for
the manufacture of syrup from beets.
We had not been aware that any ex
periment was in progress amon us for
the growing of sugar beet", or for ma
kins use of them in manufactures. It
seems that this concern has worked
the beet to very good advantage, and
has now oil hand 3000 keep of syrup
made from them. Of course, it re
quires some rectifying process to en
Ue them to make good syrup or
sugar, but if they have established the
fact that sugar beets can be grown to
advantage, that is something done of
importance. Sn gar and syrups are so
low in price now, that it will be a dif
ficult .matter to establish extensive
manufactories. Wo read that Euro
pean sugar making from the beet, is
proving slow business just now be
cause sugars are so cheap, and in con
sequence those factories are paid heavy
subsiclie?.. To have demonstrated that
we can grow sugur beets to advantage,
is something gained, and to manufac
ture "at all, is valuable experiment.
We wish the- enterprising gentleman
interested in the work all possible suc

Tjssful Monkejs
The newest service rendered by n.on
keys to mankind, was recently illus
trated in London. In one of the school
districts, there weie a great many pa
rents who reported " no children " in
their families; and in order to ascer
tain the real number of children in the
district, tho school officers resorted to
an ingenious expedient. Two monkeys
were gay ly dressed: put in a wagon:
and accompanied by a brass band,
were paraded through the streets of
the district. At once, crowds of chil
dren made their appearance. The pro
cession was stopped in a park, and the
school officers began their work, dis
tributing candies to the voungstersj
and taking their names and addresses.
lhey round out, that over sixty pa-r
rents kept their children from school
So the monkevs and the brass band
brought about 200 little girls and boys
to sciiooi, wincn surely, was a verv
good use for the monkevs.
When any farm crop commands a
paying price, it is folly for the farmer
to turn speculator, and hold for a pos
sible lise. Once a crop brings a pi ice
above the ateragf, hundreds of thou
sands of faiiicrs i in mediately jump a'
tho con :hijion teat they can make an
etra proH by j-reducing ihaf crop,
with the rifciilt, that in a fsw mouths
the amount of that croj on the market
is doubled or trebled, and prices fall
lo.ver than Wore the rise. Not Ions
igo, some hales of hops were sold in
the state of New York at Sheriffs sale
for seven cents a pound. Those hops
at one time, could have been sold at
one dollar or more, a pound; but the
owner had turned speculator, and ex
peeted still higher prices. While this
is an extreme case, yet the incident is
suggestive to those who have farm pro
duce to sl), and especially to those
who are owirg money, and dependant
upon the return of sales of their crops
for the means of payment. State

There are some new developments
in the Maxwell-Preller murder at St.
Louis, which will probably make' an
examination of the full details of the
tragedy, necessary. It is now intima
ted, that a conspiracy to defraud an
insurance company, is at the bottom
of the whole affair. It is even claimed,
that.Preller i3 still alive, and that the
body found in the trunk, was the sub
ject of a medical student, put there for
the purpose of leaving the impression,
that Prellcr had been murdered, in or
dor that twenty 'thousand dollars insu
ranee said to have heen placed in Lou
don, might be secured by certain par
ties. Preller's relatives are very anx
ious to get tho money, but the com
pany refuses to pay, until it is clearly
demonstrated that Prellei hs been
the victim of a cruel murder, and is
not a party to a fraud. Frauds of the
same character have been perpetrated
before, ana this mystery bhould be
sifted to the botiom. -
Revilland said very lately in
speech in London; To-day, France is
a "tabula rasa," a nation without a
religion. In that fallow ground, it is
true, weeds grow. ; Frivolity and li
centiousness abound, especially in
Paris, and in some other districts; but
foreignerswho have themselves con
tributed to make Paris what it is,
must not isdge of all France, by Paris.
The day of grace for France, has not
yet passed. She has given more mar
tyrs than any country in Europe, and
