The sensationalism which goes o make op too much of the journ alism of to-day, and ; which has unfortunately entered into nearly ererything ot to-day, has even found its way into the pulpit. ..To every sincere thinker and h. liefer in the" teachings of the Bible, to those who can find in these teachings the" consolation wbichi their 1 i ves ieek, the thought of bringing sensationalism into the pulpit, cannot but be abhor rent. Recently a proacher at Marion, Ind., created a sensation in his congregation when, choosing for his text the words of the scrip ture, "Put a knife to thy throat if thou be a man given to appetite.' h$ surprisingly and unexpectedly illnstrated his theme by producing from his pulpit a mammoth cheese knife and drawing it across his throat. There is no telling where sen sational preachers will stop with their surprising illustration of texts from scripture. If this Marion preacher is to be let loose with imitators, as a charlatan of the kind always is, he will find in the text of Rachel weeping for ber children and refusing to be comforted opportunity for saying in an aside in his sermon, "Come in, Racbeli and weep." He will arrange tableaux if he thinks his text authorizes their introduction. "If tb-e blind lead the blind both shall fall into the ditch." He can have the blind leading the blind aud at the proper cue from the managing pulpit take a tumble into a stimulated ditch. If his text is that as "the boo gatbereth her chickons," etc., he may. send to the nearest poulterer's if it be the season of breeding for feath ered illustration of his text. ' Illustrations might be multi plied, but there can be no use or good in doing so. Turning from this pulpit sensa tionalism, it is most gratiying to know that it is not universal, that there is a preaching and teaching in pulpits to-day, which is not of this character, but which is stir ring in its interest, and noble in its intensity of picturing mankind in all his needs and follies, and showing where the redress and es cape from error can come from. The pulpit of to-day which de pends npon this kiud sensational ism or any kind for that matter for its support, is not what the rentals be affected. No work with an idle laboring class, means unprofitable ownership of prop erty. If the laborer, unprovided with work remains in the city he must have feed, shelter and raiment -Jt is more profitable to provide work for this laborer, and through his-labor secure a return npon the necessary investment which may be required to provide this work -or to support this laborer in idle 1ie88, with all the attendant risks which an enforced idleness may develop? The property owners of New Berne have this situation to face and to them mast be left the solu tion whether property ownership shall be profitable or not.. . An Old Doctor's Favorite ; Dr. L. M.

Two Americans who 'were cross- ID g the Atlantic Ocean, met in the cabin on Sunday night to sing hymtis As they sung the last hymn, "Jesus, Lover of my Soul' one of them heard a rich and ex- edingly beautiful voice behind. He looked around, and although did- not know the face he thought that he knew the voice, when the music ceased, he turned and asked the man if he bad not been in the xivil war. The man replied that he had been a Confederate soldier. "Were yon at such a place on such a night?" asked the first. "Yes," hereplied, "and a curi ous thing happened that night which this hymn recalled to my mind. I was posted on sentry du ty near the edge of a wood. It was a dark night and very cold, and I was a little frightened be cause the enemy were supposed to be very near. . About m'dnigbt, when everything was very still and I was feeling homesick and miserable and weary, I thought I would comfort myself by praying andsioginga hjuin. I remem ber singing this hymn, "All my trust on Thee is stayed. All my help from Thee I bring, Cover my defenseless head With the shadow of Thy wing." After singing that, a strange force came, down upon me, and th rough the long night I felt no more fear." "Now," said the njher, "listen to my story. I was a Union sol dier and was in the wood that night with a party of scouts. saw you standing although I did not see your face. My men had their rifles focused upon you wait ing the word to fire, but when you sang out " 'Cover my defenseless head With the Bhadow of thy wing,' " I said, "Boys, lower your rifles, we will go home." Heaven. A place where all the scattered friendships, loves, joys and true delights of earth are purged, puri fied and intensified without one shadow of future diminution or dissolution hanging over it but with the same certainty of con tinual increase and duration constituting thus a habitation of perfect joy and-endless bliss, with greatly enlarged capacities and opportunities for progressive hap piness, and with new fountains of enjoyment ever opeuing amid elysian fields of progressive being and delight; where the rich har monies of music are ever welling up from the deep fountains of the redeemed and perfectly happy souls tuned in sweetest accord: where, in the limitless dome, tbe song of redemption mingles and commingles in one eternal hymn of joy and nraise to Him who. with his presence and love, per vades and crowns it all.
