HL 6 Commentary by the Rev. D. M.
Stearns.
1. "And Jehosanhat M. on j .
bis stead and WgthWKS3
Israel. Israel, or thn .Kr
proved themselves to be the enemies of
upd, and to stand with God means to
stand against His enemies (Jas. iv, 4)
, "7" contrast in chapter xviiL
le7le see Jehosaphat joining affin
ity with Abab, the king of Israel, and thou
necessitating the rebuke of the Lord in
chapter six, 2, "Shouldest thou heln the
? m l0Te them that hate the
Lordr To be for Ood at all times and
under all circumstances is a rare thing
and is seen perfectly only in the Lord Je
sus Christ.
8. "And he Dlaced fnrr-Aa tn oil
fenced cities of Judah." Every king was
king for the Lord (II Chron. ix, 8), and
his strength was to be in the Lord and not
in horses and ehariots (Dent xvii, 16).
When we put our trust in thlnjrs visible.
we are apt to cease to see and relv urjon
Ood (.Ter. xvil, 5). This is a constant
temptation and a snare. The Lord is of tan
proving, us as Ho did Philip, and we, like
Philip, venture to sasraest to Him hnw it
might be done, but all the while He Him
self knows what He will do (John vi
o-i). vnen we oDecnently and trustfully,
under God's guidance, make ordinary
provision, all Is well. The difficulty ia
when we cease to see God.
3. " A nd the Lord was wi th Jehosapbat "
This is the secret of all blessing. The Lord
was with Joseph (Gen xxxix, 2, 3, 21, 23)
The Lord was with David (II Sam. v,
10). His comfort to Moses, Joshua, Gid
eon and Jeremiah was the assurance thai
He was with them (Ex. iii, J2; Josh, i,
5; Judg. vi, 16; Jer. i, 8). So when the
Lord Jesus sent His followers into all tho
world the greatest encouragement Ho
could give them was His assuranqo: "AH
power is given unto Me in heaven and on
earth. Go ye, therefore, and, lo, I am with
you alway, even unto the end of the age"
(Math, xxviil, 18-20).
4. "He sought to the Lord God of hia
father and walked in His command
ments." It is written of Zacbarias and
Elizabeth that they were both righteous
before God, walking in all the command
ments and ordinances of the Lord blame
less (Luke i, 6). God had said to Israel
that if they would obey His voice and keep
His covenant, they would be a peculiar
treasure unto Him above all people (Ex.
xix. 6), and in Titus ii, 14 (B. V.), it ij
written that He gave Himself for us to
redeem us from all Iniquity and purify
unto Hi.mself a people for His own posses
sion, zealous of good works.
6. "Therefore the Lord stablished tho
kingdom in his hand." Joshua was told
that if he would observe to do according
to all the law, his way would be prosper
ous and he would have good success( Joshua
i, 7, 8). In II Chron. xx, 20, Jehoshaphat
is heard saying to the people, "Believe in
the Lord your God, so shall ye be estab
lished, " and in Isa. vii, 9, is the contrast,
"If ye will not believe, surely ye 6hall not
be established." In God and in His word
is the only establishment, for all else shall
be shaken. Wherefore we receiving a king
dom which cannot be shaken let us bavu
grace whereby we may serve God accept
ably with reverence and godly fear, for
our God is a consuming fire (Heb. xii, 28,
29).
6. "And bis heart was lifted up in tho
ways of the Lord." The margin says thai
he was encouraged in the ways of tho
Lord ; those who seek to walk in the way
of the Lord shall not lack encouragement
to con tin uo therein. There will be many
a handful dropped for us on purpose to
lead us in His way (Ruth ii, 16). They
that wait upon the Lord shall renew their
strength, they shall mount up with wingn
as eagles (Isa. xl, 31). The way of tho
Lord was so attractive and enjoyable tha'j
the way of the world and the devil becamo
distasteful and the high places and groves
were taken away. We cannot walk with
God unless we humble ourselves so to do
and make up our minds to be agreed with
Him (Mio. vi, 8; Amos iii, 3).
7. "Also in the third year of bis reign
he sent to his princes to teach in the dities
of Judab." What a suggestive foreshadow
ing of the time when "A king shall reign
in righteousness and princes shall rule in
judgment, and the work of righteousness
shall be peace, and the effect of righteous
ness, quietness and assuranoe forever"
(Isa. xxxii, 1, 17). There cannot be any
thing more important than that men
should know the Lord and His ways, and
when kings and princes take up this as
their mission, the kingdom will either
have come or be very near. Just now our
government has given $50,000,000 for de
fcnse, for the purchase or manufacture of
warships or war material, but was it ever
beard that any government ever gave even
$1,000,000 to make known the living God?
8. "And with them Levitesand priests."
The priest s lips should keep knowledge,
and they should seek the law at his mouth,
for he is the messenger of the Lord of
hosts (Mai. ii, 7). Their calling is sim
ply set forth in II Chron. xxix, Jl, in
these words, "My sons, be not now negli.
gent, for the Lord bath chosen you to
stand before Him to serve Him and that
ye should minister unto Him and burn in
cense." Priests, prophets and kings were
to recognize God alone as their Master and
live only unto Him.
9. "And they taught in Judah and bad
the book of the law of the Lord with them
and went about throughout all the cities
of Judah and taught the people." Thero
is nothing on earth so heavenly as tho
Word of God. It is all "true from the be
ginning" and "forever settled in heaven'
(Ps. exix, 89. 160). We are to receive it
meekly, hold it fast, rightly divide It and
hold it forth, for it is an engrafted word,
a faithful word, a word of truth and
word of life (Jas. 1, 21 ; Titus i, 9; II Tim.
ii, 16; Phil, ii, 16). If all ministers and
teachers taught only the Word of God and
honored it as the Word of God, how much
more would be accomplished for God I BuS
when those who profess to be its friends
dishonor and even set aside many portions
of it what shall we say? Just this, "For
ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in
heaven."
10. "And the fear of the Lord fell upon
all the kingdoms of the lands that were
round about Judah. There was no war.
Other nations brought presents and trib
ute, and Jehosaphat waxed great exceed
ingly (verses 11, 12). The remaining verses
of the chapter tell that his army wai
1,160,000, but the very next chapter tells
of hia downfall. Uzziah was marvelously
helped till bo was strong, but bis strength
was bis weakness and the cause of bis fall
(II Chron. xxvi, 15, 16). Our only strength
Is in the Lord. Be strong In the Lord and
in the power of His might.

THE LOST OKDEELT i
It was not yet noon, but the running
fight -which had disturbed the solitude
of the Buttes since early morning was
over, me troop had scattered after
them with a great deal of threatening
and intentionally wild firing, but it
was no part of Captain Pillogg's orders
to unaniy slay or even harass. His de
sire was merely to impress "the fear of
God and Washington" upon the deluded
tribe and drive them back-like sheen to
their fold. Besides, after the morning's
amusement, the hot sun made rest wel
come. Sound the recall," said Pilloca to
his senior trumpeter, and at onoe threw
himself from his horse, lav at fnll
length on the grass and produced his
flask and cigar case.
The bugle sang brightly over the
plain?-and as its clear command filled
the distant hollows and rang from
bluff' to bluff the distant shouting and
firing gradually ceased. "While the cap
tain puffed his cigar at ease, and the
trumpeter stood holding the horses be
side him, the roar of the first sergeant
forming the troop came to their ears,
and in a few minutes, with much snort
ing of excited horses and clatter of
steel, the men came calloDina back in

drawing a paper from his blue shirt
pocket, faced the men and rattled off
the names, while the officer eyed each
man critically as he answered. ' ' Here. ' '
Ihere were some casualties. One man
was badly hurt by a shot in the side;
others were scratched, but one alone
was missing. The captain, who had led
the fight in the beginning of the affair,
thought consolingly of the number of
Indians bowled over, who had mostly
been carried off by their comrades. The
first sergeant swung his horse about and
saluted.
"One man missing, sir," be reported
"the second trumpeter, Thomas Cox."
"Anybody know anything about him?
Anybody see him drop?"
A trooper replied that Tommy was
riding hard mouthed Rip and in the
pursuit appeared to have all he could
do to hold the horse in. The tronrwr
opined that Rip, being half crazy at the
best of times, had gone mad with ex
citement and borne Tommy Cox "into
the next county. " The captain had just
ordered the sergeant to detail a corporal
and men to look up the missing when
from the direction of the Indians' flight
there came a mad batter of hoofs and a
shout. Dp charged the missing bugler,
a smooth faced lad, with saber rattling
wildly against his side, his bugle pound
ing his back and his bridle hand, though
touching the rein, evidently powerless
to control his foaming, wild eyed horse,
who dashed pellmell into the troop and
came to a standstill only when it had
jammed itself between two bruised and
cursing troopers. Tommy's right arm
desperately embraced a wriggling bun
dle of dirty shirt and red brown skin,
and from this bundle came a hideous
succession of howls and snarling lamen
tations. The troopers leaned forward
onrtheir horses' necks to look, and at
once there ran from right to left a rum
ble of sardonic laughter.
"What is that, sir?" the captain ask
ed and peered disgustedly at the bundla
"Please, sir, "said Tommy, a year in
the service and glorying in his first ex
pedition, "a prisoner, sir."
"Oh, h I" cried Pi Hogg, and the
troopers roared. "Let the papoose go.
Are you a dry nurse, sir?"
"No, sir," said Tommy, very red and
anxious. "But he's such a little devil,
an he's hurt, an I--X'm afraid I've
killed his father, so I I thought I'd
bring him along. Oh, ah, oh!"
The wriggling Indian child had
writhed about until it got Tommy's
hand between its teeth and was now
biting like a rat. When tho next man
in ranks overcame his laughter suffi
ciently to release the bugler, the cap
tain was smiling.
"You killed the father, eh? How did
it happen you did not keep up with the
troop?"
Tommy, eager to excuse himself, and
hot at the laughter of the grizzled troop,
hastily explained.
"Rip got a bit the best of me, " he
jerked out, "an ran wild. We lost
sight of the other fellows, sir, an over
there the horse bolted up a cooly.
There was an Injun without a pony, an
this kid oa his back, running ahead, an
he turned an fired on me. So I fired
back with my revolver, an (Tommy
grinned with modest pride) I dropped
the son dropped him, sir, deader than
stuffing. This here kid howled ; I guess
the bullet grazed him. An an I got
Hip in hand an dismounted an took
the kid; he fought like a wildcat, an
the bites jing, can't he bite I"
"If you'd taken the rifle it would
have been more sensible," Pillogg
drawled- "What do you want to do
with him?"
"He can't walk, sir," Tommy pro
tested, "an I was kinder sorry for him.
He's so durned cute when he wrestles
an bites an ah he'd die if I lef ' him
there all night."
The captain turned away.
"When these beggars have come to
their senses again," he said, "they'll
send for him. You can bring him along
if you'll guarantee to nurse him. 'Ten

la this manner the Weasel was
brought to For$ g. and introduced to
the mysteries of civilisation. His fa
ther and mother dead, none of his tribe
claimed him, and Tommy Cox, the
bugler, became, despite of the men's
frequent jests, a father, tutor and friend
to kirn. Tommy was yet young enough
to retain great freshness of soul and
simplicity of heart. The fact that he
bad shot the little savage's father and
made an orphan of the Weasel weighed
upon his conscienoe, and he was very

THE COXJlSra?Y, THE
LOUISBURG, N. C, FRIDAY, SE1TEMBER 30,1898,
hleof tbIndUn. Nerer-
bleaome anomaly in the garrison, where
the women of laundress' row looked on
him as they might upon the direct
spawn of the deviL hailing their ow
offspring from him when the Weasel
would nave shared their game. Had
they had their way the boy would have ',
oeen sent back to the reservation.
A powerful influence was exerted,
however, in the Weasel's behalf, ma in
fluence than which none grrater was
felt in Fort S. Miss Toonie Adair, lit
tle 6-year-old daughter of the colooeL
who had been christened Judith (a
name to which she never anrwerwl), to
the horror of all the laundrwi took a
fancy to the Weasel, and at once ad"pt
ed him as her own special protvgp.
What Toonie said, when she raid it
from the colonel's knee with hr arm
round his neck, invariably wa accopt
id as a post order, and the WVasel's po
sition wan assured.
"You're a dreadful wicked little eav

"Now I'm a real, real colonel, jti-t 1 . k.

And, please, papa, may he have a uni

posed toward the little Indian h:nl now
no word to say. Toonie's orderly
camo a feature of Fort S. Where the
little girl went there wnt he, even
to accompanying her at the regulation
distance behind, for Toomo was noth
ing if not disciplinarian, und kept him
ia his place on her sudden dnshs,
pony back, into the surrounding country
and about the post. For him when the
big black eyes softened, it va.s at Too
nie's voice; when he bent to study hia
lesson it was at Toonie's behest; when
he returned, as he did wvcrnl time,
after runniug away in search of savage
freedom, it was to stuml meekly and
mournfully before Toonie's tearful re
buke. For Tommy Cox he had a n-gunl.
varied by sudden outbursts of passionate
disobedience; to Toonie his devotion
was always unbrokenly simple aud dog
like in its faithfulness. Some times tho
officers joked the littlo maid on her or
derly, but never after the year in which
she was 9 and the Weasel about 10.
She bad dashod away on one of her
willful trips of exploration, followed at
a gallop by the Weasel. It was glaring
summer time, and by the river far from
tho post grew big red plums in succu
lent profusion, cool and juicv. To fast
on these at leisure the girl dismounted,
and the Weasel tied the ponies to a
tree. He was not yet finished with this
office, Toonie plunging at onco in the
bushes, when the boy was startled by a
terrible cry. Ho quickly made the
ponies fast and darted to the child' aid.
She 6at upon the ground in tearful
fright, white and sobbing.
"The snake 1 The snake!" she cried.
"A great big rattlesnake it Lit me."
She clutched her ankle and ranauwl.
The little Indian did not hesitate; he
did not lose his head. At some time in
his life with his own p-ople he must
have witnessed some such scenes, for
now he acted with decision and knowl
edge in a case where a white boy would
have been helpless. He tore tho low
shoe and littlo stocking a'.vay, and
there, already, was the swelling redness
of the serpent's bite. He owned a knife,
the gift of a brotherly tnx per, and this
he whipped out. No doubt his black
eyes gleamed strangely with excite
ment, for Toouie was overcome with
new terror at sight of them and of the
sharp and shining blade.
In spite of her screams the grimly
silent Weasel seized the leg aud deliber
ately and firmly cnt into tho flesh
round tho wound until a portim was
hacked out. To the cnt he applied his
lips and sucked vigorously. Toonie's
shrieks and howls filled the air, but the
boy uttered never a word, only stopping
now and then to pevr into his mistress'
blue and frightened eyes anxiously.
These did not dim, ber rig r did not
lessen, and the Weasel sucked away
with condfienca At last be took her
handkerchief and bound up the wound,
dragged her to her pony and hilp-d her
mount Sho was a wonderfully strong
and healthful young person and did not
whimper nor faint, ouly howlM in a
sturdy and wholesome way. The Wea
sel rode by ber side at a tearing gallop
back to the post and straight to the hos
pital. The doctor applied his remedies,
but they were not needed, for tho rude
promptitude of the Indian's action had
drawn the poison. Toouie bore an ngly
scar afterward and betrayed an awed
respect for and a little fear of hfr order
ly for a long time, but the doctor was
enthusiastic, and the colonel let it be
understood that the Weajl was hence
forth his own particular charge.
In the passage of time it became nec
essary for the girl to desert tho wild
but healthful life of the western plains
and go east to be educaled. The colonel
decided to aena Weaacl away at the
same time to one of these great institu
tions which are maintained for the ben-,
efit of the nation's wards. Thus it came
that the two parted, the mistress ami
the orderly. Toonie gave him her pho
tograph with team.

she said. "Promise."
