BLOWING ONE'S OWN HORN.
A Short Seraoa From the Newspaperlal I
Pnlplt.
"Lift up thy voice." Isa. xl, 9.
From the frequency of such pas
sages as thesoAnd Esau lifted up
his voice and wept," "And Jacob
kissed Kachel and lifted up his voice
and wept," lThe people lifted up
their voice and wept," .lotham
lifted up his voice and
cried,1 lifted up their voices aud
wept s re," and "Saul wept," it would
seem that tho raising of voices aud
the raising of tears, in Biblical times,
were intimately associated the one
with tue other. Ana even in our
own day there is a close relation be
tween the two acts, but with this dif
ference, namely, that whereas, in
former times, the voice lifting and
the tear-shedding proceeded from
the same person or persons, in mod
em days the loud voice aud the
moistened eye como from entirely
different seurces: that in to say, one
lifts hisjroico and another -does the
weeping. But this need concern us
not Different eras are marked by
different customs. Our purpose to
day is to draw what instruction we
may from tho injunction contained
ui the text: Lift up thy voice.
And firstly, it should be borne in
mind that wheu tho Scriptures say:
"Lift up tin voice," it is equivalent
to saying 'hft up thy words; ' and it
need-not, perhaps, be said that the
lighter one's words are, the more
easily may they be lifted up. There
fore, if it be commendable in one to
lift up his voice (and that it is, the
several passages quoted prove beyond
peradventure), then it follows that
the person who would obey the words
of my text should choose words which
may be raised with the least possible
exertion. And you will usually find
that the words of the loudest talker
are usually of the smallest possible
weight.
Secondly, "Lift up thy voice."
"When you are engaged in an argu
ment, speak as loud as your lungs
will allow you. Let your adversary's
logic be as keen as a Damascus
blade, and his reasoning as
convincing as a pecuniary bribe,
only to lift up your voice to the prop
er elevation and you are bound to get
tho better of him. Possibly yon .may
not succeed in bringing him over to
your view, but you will inevitably si
lence him, which amounts to the
same thing.
But, thirdly, it might be advanced
that your conduct would cause you
to be disliked. What of that? Do not
the successful ones of the earth al
ways excite envy, and therefore the
enmity, of the unsuccessful? Go to!
What does the text say? "Lift up
thy voice." . .
Fourthly If you have aught to
say to your neighbor, and yon are
proud of what you are saying (and
proud you are, or you wouldn't open
your mouth to say it), why should
you not speak loud enough that all
within earshot should hear it, and be
benefited accordingly? Why should
not your edifying powers of speech
be made known to the multitude?
The text says: "Lift up thy voice."
Fifthly "And if it be a praisewor
thy act to lift np your voice, then it
follows that no opportunity should
be loBt which can show that you de
sire to do that which is praiseworthy;
that is to say, you should lift up your
voice wherever ami whenever the op
portunity offers. Nay, more, you
should make the opportunity. For
the text says: "Lift up thy voice."
It doesn't say: "Lift up thy voice in
prayer," or "Lift up thy voice in la
mentation," or "Lift up thy voice to
speak well of thy neighbor;' but sim
ply : "Lift up thy voice."
Sixthly Do not not flatter your
self that you will be sought out and
pushed ahead in tho world by others.
Modest worth is a good thing, but
unless one makes himself heard he is
quite apt to be left amidst the noise
made by the many who are eager for
preferment It is undoubtedly true,
in the beautiful imager' of our an
cestors, that "the still sow sucks the
most swill;" but it should be remem
bered that she is only Btill because
sne has-got what she wanted. Until
she got it you may bo sure-she failed
not to lift up her voice.
Seventh, and in conclusion, when
those about you are reading and
writing, when your.friend is nlayiug
upon tho piano upon your invitation,
when yon are in the lecture-room or
at the theater, wnen your wile or
mothe.r or husband or father ,is on-
aeavonng to get a mucn-neeaea nap,
when there be those about you that
have sensitive ears and delicate
nerves, when there is somebody elso
whose words all are eager and anx
ious to hear, when you see, hear or
think of something you want then,
m tue words ot my text: "Lilt up
thy voice.

JOFR PART OF THE FRANCOCHIXESF.
QUARREC
Somt months apo the United States
government made an attempt at me
diation between I1 ranee and Uutna,
but the friendlv offer was not received I
with favor by either party to the con
test. Our government first commun
icated with the French foreign office,
and then instructed Mr. Young, our
minister at the court of Peking, to
see the Tsnng-Li-Yomen and ascer-.
tain from it what would be thought of
the following propesitions:
First The ratification of the treaty
of Tientsin and the conclusion of a
commercial convention, based on a
project to bo put forward by i rauce.
Second The occupation of Kelung
and Tamsui withciij claim to terri
torial sovereignty, and only until the
treaty itself should be carried out
Third The payment to France of five
million franco, as a compensation for
the non-execution of the Tientsin
stipulation, and the cession of the
cust un house and mines of Tamsui
and Kelung until the settlement of
the compensation duo and the fixing
of a guarantee by arbitration.
Fourth The evacuation of Tonquin
by the Chinese troop3, and the sus
pension of operations by the French
fleet, after the ratification of this
agreement and the conclusjon of n
commercial convention.
To not an article of these four
propositions- would be the Yamen
consent. There should be no occu
pation of Chinese territory by a for
eign power; there should be no pay
ment of an indemnity, and there
should be no conclusion of' a com
mercial treaty. This determination
was telegraphed by Mr. Young to
Washington, and hero the matter
dropped as far as this country is con
cerned.
But iu the meantime the Chineso
representative in London took it nn-
on himself, unauthorized "by his gov
ernment, to apply to England to
mediate in the controvjersy. This
but served to make the Matter worse.
His government snubbed him by tell
ing him that it would treat only with
France directly, and then snbmitted
the following proposition to the
French gevernment:
1'irst A rectification of the Ton
quin frontier, tho Lang Son-Lao Kai
line to be conceded to China. Sec
ondA new regulation of commer
cial relations between . China aud
Tonquin; and third France to give
up all interference with the t domestic
aifairs of Anam.
If France TPould yield to thTs ex
tent, China would abandon her own
claim to indemnity and consent to a
treaty of peace being concluded. .Not
otherwise. The demands of China
were inadmissible by the French,
and the war continued. But the
terms which China is now apparent
ly willing to accept fall far short of
what the council of state insisted up
on up to a very recent period.
FIGHTING ILLINOIS LEGISLATORS.
While the house was attempting to
adjourn, Baker and Crafts engaged
in a hand-to-hand fight immediately
in front of the speaker's stand. Ba
ker had all the morning busied him
self in endeavoring to get the stock
yard bill replaced in the order of bills
on second reading, while Crafts de
sired the measure referred to some
committee or other. The two wor
thies met and Baker said to Crafts:
'Your scheme won't work."
Mr. Crafts I have no scheme.
Mr. Baker Yes you have. Your
finger is in the pie.
Crafts No, it is not.
Baker Yes, it is.
Crafts You are a liar.
Baker You are another.
Crafts retorted with a blow aimed
at Baker's face, which, however, fell
wide of its mark. Baker struck Crafts
in the face with his fist and at tho
same time kicked him in the stomach.
Crafts, apparently weakened by the
kick, grasped a chair and endeavored
to smash it over Baker s head, but
the house policeman interfered nnd
separated the would-be combatants,
who were entirely willing to ficht
to a finish then nnd there. The
house was in a great commotion by
this time, the members yelling and
shouting. Speaker Haines promptly
declared the house adjourned. - -

The food that raises a rebellion in
the stomach as it is swallowed does
not bestow either comfort or strength.
The stomach which for sometime
after dinner keeps sending up gas
eous reminders of what has been
eaten, is not in good order. Tone
that stomach up with Brown's Iron
Bitters and eat your dinner joyfully
and heartily. Mr. J. B. Chandler,
Clinton, Iowa, says, "I used Brown's
Iron Bitters with great benefit for
dyspepsia, after other remedies had
failed."
