The Harp of a Thousand Strings. published by request. In the August number of the Harper the famous old sermon, uIIe played on a harp of a thousand strings," is re published. It will be new to many readers and bear reprint every seven years : I SERMON. I say to you, my brethering, that -I am not an edecated man, an' 1 am not one o' them that Jbleeves edecation is necessary for a Gosiiel minister, fur I bleeve the Lord edecates his preachers jest as he wants them to be edecated; an although J say it that oughn t to say it, yet in the State of Indianny whar 1 live, thar s no man as gits a bigger congregation nor what I gits. Thar may be some here to-day, my brethering, as don't know what per suasion 1 am uv. Well. 1 mav sav to vou my brethering, that I am a Hard shell-Baptist. Thar's some folks as don't like Hardshell Baptists: but I d rather nev a hard shell as no shell at all. You see me here to-day, my brethering, drest up in fine close; you might think I was proud, but I am not proud, my brethering, an although I hev bin a preacher uv the gospil for twenty year, an1 although laincapting wis a nat boat that lies at your landing, I'm not proud, my brethering. I'm not gwine to tell you etlzackly whar my tex may be found : suffice it ter say it's in the leds of the Bible, an' you'll find it somewhar 'tween the first chapter of the book of Generations an' the last chapter of the book of Revolu tions; an" if you'll go -an sarch the Scriptures you'll not only find my ttx thar, but a great many other tcjcea as "will do vou goo. I to read; an' my tex when youshill find it, you shill find it to read thus r "And he played on a harp uv a thou sand strings sperits of just men made jterfeck." My lex, brethefiit i. leads me to speak of sperits. Now thar's a great many kinds of spirits in the world. the fust places thijfs the- sperits - as sum folks call ghosts; then thar's the sperits of turpentine; an' then thar's tne sperits a some folks call liqu r,.an I've got as good an article ur theru kind of spent-; on my flat-boat,- as ever was fetched down the Mississippi River; but thar's a great many other kinds of sperits,.for the tex -says : "He played on a -Harp of a i-sand strings sperits of just men made per fect But I'll tell yon of the kind uv sperits as is ment in the tex its fir. That is the kind of sperits as is meiit in the tex, my brethering. Now, thar's a grat many kinds uv fire in the world, hi the fust place, thar's the common sort of fire you light a pipe or cigar with; an' then thar's eamfire; fire before you are ready to fall back, an' many other kinds uv fire; for the texsays : "He played on a Harp uv a tow-sand strings sperits of just men made perfeck."

An' that's the kind of fire as a great many uv you'll come to ef you don't do better nor what you've bin doingfor the tex says, "He play ed on a Harp uv a tltoit-sxnd strings sperits of just men made perleck." I Now the different sorts of fire in the j world may be likened unto the different persuasions in the world. In the fust place, we have the riscopahans, an they are ahigh-sailin' set, and they may be likened unto a turkey-buzzard that flies up in the air, and he goes up and up till he looks no- bigger than your finger-nail, an' the fust thingyouknow he ctims down, an is a-tillin himselt on the karkiss uv a dead boss by the side u v the road and "He played on a HarfMivV'a urn-sand strings sperits of just men made perfee.'' aii iiten uiar s uie mieuiouw, an they may be likened unto the squirrel running up a tree; for the Aiethodis bleeves in gwine on from one degree of grace to another, an finally on to per- feckshun: an the squirrel goes' up an up, an' he jumps from lim' to Hm , and branch to branch, an' the fust thing voir know he falls, an' down he cuius, kerfiumnrntr; an' that's like the Metho dis, for they is allers falling from grace ah ! And "He played on a harp uv a tw-sand strings sperits of just men m nde plf eck." And then, my brethering, thar's the Baptist ah ! and they hev been liken ed unto a possum on a 'simmen tree; an' the thunders may roll, an' tfieearth may quake, but the possum clings thar still ah ! An you may shake one foot loose, but' tother's thar; an' you may shake all his feet loose, but he wraps his tail around the lim' sin' he clings thar forever- ah ! for "He played'ojfc,a harp of a Yof-sand strings sperits" of just men made perfeck."'

Hanociiow, China, Jan. 24, 1887. I started from Statesville, N. C, No vember 1st and reached Little Hock, Ark., Wednesday afternoon, where 1 had a most delightful visit of a day and a half. Saturday I reached El Dorado Kansas, where I joined Dr. and Mrs. Davis. Leaving that place the next Thursday we continued our transconti nental journey, by the southern route, through Colorado, New Mexico, Arizo na and southern California. Nothing of importance occurred except that at Albuquerque, New Mexico, where we stopped for Sabbath the Dr. got into trouble on account of his good looks. A drunken cow boy coming into the hotel, and overcome by his winning ap pearance, most fondly embraced him and insisted that he should "take a drink" with him. The doctor complied with the request, but refused anything stronger than cold water. We reached San Francisco Wednes day. Our steamer, "The City of Syd ney," lbusl from the wharf abo it A p. m. Saturday the'JOtli. After an hour's sailing on the calm, placid waters of the Bay, we passed through the uolden Gate and were launched upon the deep. An hour longer I stood upon the deck determined to gaze to the last upon the receding continent "my native land when suddenly then? blew up a brisk gale that sent me to seek shelter in ni)T cabin.

This is now the season of the Chinese year, and the girls have a vacation of two weeks, g The closing exercises of the school art very inter esting, and the examinations would have done credit to any of America's bright lasses. On Thursday five girls stood and read their compositions, which were pronounced fin by those more ca pable of judging than myself. Three girls pointed out on a map the travels of bt. Paul. 1 hese exercises were in terspersed with songs, ucoroojnied by the organ. Thay have good voices and sing well. Little An Loh, whose for eign name, Kennedy Lupton, is already familiar to many of our home friends, a bright hoy of nine, played "The Gate Ajar for Me." and a little girl stood on either side find assisted in the singing, what a beantifnl sight that was in a heathen land. The new year is a national holiday, and for several days before and after all the shops and houses of business are 1 l iii i ciosea, ana tne whole nation as one man is given up to festivity and idol worship. At night just one week 'lie fore the new year they burn their kitchen (iol iu a bonfire iu ftontof the house. This is simply an ugly picture about a foot long and not quite so wide. When he is burned he ascends to head quarters to make his annual report of the conduct of the family during the past year. On the night preceding the New Year he resumes his place in the kitchen, that is he is replaced by an other. I have just returned from a Chinese feast. The family is a Christian fami ly, but everything was done up in Chi nese style. No knives and forks, so I had my first experience with chop-sticks. I wish 1 had lime to give you a full account of the table and some of the rare dishes. LlF.Y TlDBALL. John Sherman. From the lialeih News and Observer. We see it reported that John Sher man on his return to Ohio from the South proceeded to insult the people for whom he had such honeyed words at Birmingham and Nashville. He made a speech in which he referred to the "wicked" '"rebellion" and charged that the Southern people had begun the late war because Lincoln luul been elected President. He denied the South the justice of having fought for principle's sake, for its rights under the constitu tion as always maintained by Southern statesmen. He declared that the South ern people "engaged in rebellion" out of pure 'wickedness." Not content with this, wesee further, he has also announced his purpose of advocating again, his outrageous pro position for the "protection" of the southern negroes, a proposition which, sis our readers well remember, looks to a law placing the elections in the Southern States under the supervision and control of Federal officials. The New York Herald thus reports an .in terview with him in Washington City last week : Reporter : "What do the Republi cans propose to' do about the alleged intimidation of the colored voter by the white Democrats of the South?" Mr. Sherman : "I can't say as to that. We certainly ought to do some thing to protect these people. I think we will do so in the next presidential cauiunisrn. Just what our mode of 1 rj procedure will be I can't tell, but we feel that the time has come when we ought to claim our rights. Tennessee. North Carolina and Florida are very closely divided politically even now. Tennessee and North Carolina natural ly belong to us. We ought bo have them both." It will thus be seen that Mr. Sher man counts North Carolina as "natur ally lelonging" to him. However the people of the State may vote, he pro poses, if possible, to have the electoral vote of the State counted for himself and to secure the count of enough other Southern States to secure his election, though the choice of those States for the presidency may be, as it undoubted ly will be, the Democratic nominee. The course which has been taken and the plan which has been mapped out are characteristic of the hypocritical, the wily, the truculent John Sherman. Behold again the policy of force of the Republican party as illustrated in the utterances of one of the party's ideals of statesmanship ! It remains for the people to sav whether such presump tion, such unpatrioticpurposes shall be properly rebuked or not. It is a won der that even any Republicans are to be found willing to' support such a bold, unscrupulous self-seeker ns Sherman for the presidency. When he counts on North Carolina as "naturally be lanfins to him" he decidedly reckons withoot his host. But the unblushing cheek of the claim ! It far surpasses even that of the traditional govei nment mule. answer, and at 7 o'clock this eveninsr their formal reply was completed. In it they saythat: Application having been made to the Interstate Con.merce Commission, un der a section of the act to regulate com merce, by the Southern Railway and Steamship Association, an organization composed of twenty-nine railroad com panies, lines and systems and steam ship lines operated in connection there with, to charge less for loager than for shorter distances in certain cave for the transportation of property from and to principal cities of the North and South J el ween Bton and New Or- leans, Norfolk mid Memphis, mid said common carriers having presented as a reason granting their application, the existance of water and othe competi tion, claiming that the same cannot be met except by maintaining the rates heretofore established to and from the said points, which are alleged to te too low to enable said common carriers to carry on business if applied to local intermediate points, and further claim ing that great disturbances of business will occur if present traffic arrange ments and rates are immediately chang ed; it is ordered: That the said appl'.c ition le and the same is hereby granted temporarily, subject to modification or revocation by the commission at any time upon hear ing or ther wise, and the said common carriers are hereby temporarily relieved from the operation of the fourth section of said act to the extent specified in the recitals of this order and for a pe riod not greater than ninety days from this date, subject, however, to the re striction that none of the said com mon carriers, while this order remains iu force, shall in any case charge or re ceive compensation for the transporta tion of property between stations on their respective lines where more is charged for a shorter than a longer haul, which shall be greater than the rates now in force, and charged and re ceived by said carriers respectively on theSlst day of Mauch, 1S87, schedules of which have been filed with the com mission. Printed copies of this order are to be posted at all stations of the roads in terested. The Coai:n;ssif)n will convene at At lanta, (i i., on April 2o; Mobile, Ala., April "S); at New Orleans, on M y 2 and at Memphis, Te:m., on May 1, tor the consideration of the subject m itter of the southern companies, at which placet an I times they m ty appear and present applica ion for relief. Their applications must show the precise re lief d 'sired, an I at the sam ? places and times any person interested iu opposing any such applications m iv also appear and hi heard and at any time prior to May o thy commissioner wiil'receive printed or written communications in support of, or in opposition to the re lief, ask d by these petitions. This an nouncement re-pecing time and places of hearing and method of procedure is -uject to change or enlargement in the discretion of the commission. It is announced that if the idea of the national drill is "that there will he but one encampment and all contes tants will be quartered there, white ami black mingling with freedom, that idea is a mistake." H is said that "while there will be a common drill ground, it will be within the power of the management to pitch camp in a number of places wide distances apart, so that no undesirable frictions or con tiguities need result to the visiting companies." All the same, the South ern companies which have been . in vited to enter will le expected to take their places in the drill on a footing with the negro companies we suppose, and f his they prefer not to do.
