She steak a car ride with a crytal con
science, if the conductor forgets her

LIFE OF GEORGE WASHINGTON.
By Washington Irving. New York
John B. Alden.
All that is required to be said of this
well-known American classic is unstint
ed praise of a new, handsomely buund,
and illustrated and exceedingly cheap
edition. At a time when numberless
compilations from modern sources are
being issued upon American subjects,
it is well to read once more this bright
ly written and popular biography,
which lias always exhibited the gifts
of its celebrated author at their best.
The touch is always the same, whether
the subject be native to his pen and
tliought or foreign to at least the lat
ter ; the brilliancy, the terseness, the
sympathy are his iu every case, wheth
er the hero ha Columbus or Goldsmith
or George Washington. The Life is
complete iu four volumes, and contains
excellent portraits and illustrations.
UTHURf REVIEW.
The leading article in the The Elec
tic for December is Irom the pen of
Prof. Freeman, the great English His-toriai-,
and '$ from the pages of the
ConTKMPonAinr Kbvibtv. I discaetea
on of th rexei educational questions of
the honr, an the' other problems related
theTk. DfvFiKhertiirs artiels on "The
Efwtts of Tor Life on tit Human oy,"
isol striking ir.tert. The continuation
of tke strjr of Zeters Pasha's life aa taken
frow kit ows lias, will te frond at fascina

Ju?, th jrreat larse stateswan of India,
discirt "'Ju'ropcan I'olitics froia an .East
India Standyaint," and shows superior ac
usmr and kmwldge. W. L. Csurtnsy
has a critical etna" j of "Pascal," as an ex
poaeut of the teuiencies of philosoj hical
doubt, which will present the great French
man to Many readers in a new light. The
pleasaat essay "Iu fiaise of the Country,"
by H. D. Traill, will eroke sympathetic
btudy from thousand of readers who arc
interested in csantry life. Tke par :-r en
titled "Tht Cause of Character," from
CoKxMiLt, is a suggestive of inadepuate
examination a very obscure pre-hl-m.
Tlie attentiou of the reaJer will he worthily
excited by the article called "The Eruptiva
Force of Modern Fanaticism," as it touches
some of the most pressing and terns le
problesas of the age. The women of
Chivalry," by Mrs. E. Lynn Lintan, is a
racy and agreeable sketch; and "The Ex
periences of an English Engineer on the
Congo," will be found attractive by all those
who have bten drawn to African Explora
tion and the career of Stanley, especially in
his last great euterpriss. Tle shorter pa
pers are good. There is a long and strik
ing ballad poem, called "Alfred the Hero
King," and some clever if melancholy verses
by a Japanese poet, published under the
head of 44 Words worth and Japan."

The "Magazine of Western History" for

us, in its seventh volume, is full of rich and
rare reading matte?. Typographically speak

the conception of its culture is new and
unique;. the ability that makes its manage

HIS CLOSING SERMON.
Dr. John R. Brooks Bids His Con-
GREGATiojr Farewell A Noble
Tribute."
Editor Headlight :
The Rev. Dr. John R. Brooks, pas
tor St. Paul Methodist E. Church, in
this city, preached his ''Farewe'l Ser
mon," last Sunday morning, for the
present Conference 3Tear, from the text
found in ind Kings, XVIII, chapt, 4th
V. "He removed the high places,
and broke the images and cut flown
the groves and broke in pieces the
brazen serpent that Moses had made;
for unto tlwse the children of Isreal
did burn incense to it; and he called
Nehushtan," t.iis was done by Mezi
kiah in the early part of his good reign
which reign lasted 29 years, with a
view of destroying Idol-worship among
the Israelites and bringing them back
to the worship of the true God the
God of their Fathers, who had brought
them out 'of the land of bondage,.
Egypt, and had lead them for 40 years
through the wildreness into the promis
ed land the 'land' of Canian. . Dr.
Brooks preacixTd 'ah eloquent -and
thoughtful sermon, from this text,
bringing it downpractically, to Idol
worship as it exists in this age of the
church anion" modern christians of
every denomination.
The Rev. Dr. Brooks thus ended his
conference year with his people whom
he has served with ability and chris
tian zeal through the' present Confer
ence year, and this writer is of the
opinitMi th t his ministerial labors
among us lias been acceptable to his
congregation, and many would be
glad to have been returned to this
charge for another year. Many of us
rega-d Rev. Dr. Brooks as one of the
ablest ministers in the N. C, Confer
ence at the preseut time. All of the
sermous preached by him during tlie
vear, liave shown ability, of a high or
der and thorough preparation before
being proclaimed from the sacred desk,
and above all, all of us regard Dr.
Brooks as an able christian minister
and a good man.
