That's so I recicon. The good book says: "Humble thyself under the mighty hand of God," but a man can't do it with a pocket, full of 'money.

The ricit man feels secure and in dependent whether it rains or not. The only thing he wants it to rain for is to lay the dust and cool the air so lie can feel Otter in Ins skin. Rut. the poor farmer looks to the clouds for a liviug and he never looks up without feeling his dependence upon Him who made th. ui and who sends the rain upon the just and the unjust. It is not at all impossible for a rich man fo reverence his Maker, and do good with his money and have a peace ful conscience. Job is a notable example,and we have them about nowadays, ever and anon, but still they are scarce. It looks like the more the Lord gives a man the more he ought to love, him but he dou't, and it is the same way with a parent and his children. Poor folk's children love their parents better than rich folk's - children, and the best Christians I know of are among the poor and afflicted: Rich men's children stand around waiting for the old man to. die. They don't think they are, but, they are, and they catch- them selves figuring many a time about their share, and what, they will get when the old man dies. Dr. llaygood preached a sermon at our town not long ago, and with solemn earnestness .declared that it was a perilous thing for a father to lay up money for his children. "For many long years," saitl he,' "I have lieen an educator of the boys of this Imtd. I have loved them and watched them, and tried to guide them by precept -and ex ample, a ltd I .say now with solemn conviction, that there is' no dauger, uo peril, no temptation so fatal to youth asriches. -Many boys come to college as beneficiaries; many come whose parents are toiling and struggling to give them an education, and- many come whose parents are rich, and their chi lit re n never know a want.

The Charleston "News and Cou rier" has investigated this new agri cultural implement, and hnds in it the promise of future success in performing the labor of picking cotton by machinery. -The machine is not yet perfected and, has not yet been placed on the market The principal object, viz., that of taking the cotton from the bolls by means of... revolving cylinders has been accomplished in a man net nearly perfect.

BEECHER-BLAliN E -:o:- KEV. HENEYWAED BEECH EK WRITES A LETTER. OFFICrAL PKOSTITLTION. . The Blaine campaign of lying and dodging has reached a point w here the corruptionists no longer attempt evasion. On the contrary tncy resort to the most fatuous spe cies of falshood, liardly a (lay passes but some fresh evidence of Brother Blaine's ofucial prostitu tion comes to light, ail id ;is soon as one denial is deuior.stvated to be a lie, another lie as ltold and as un blushing Is resortctt to. The latest lie is in the nafme of Attempt to deny the truth ol a tatenient made by James F. Fov in 1877. Joy is now a prominent Maine whacker, but in 177 he state'! to several friends i fiat Maine ' had offered to prostitute his office , of Speaker oft he House in Joy's behalf, provided Joy would enable i him to place certain depreciated ; bonds at par. The fact shave been j stated a::d denied, -but the follow- ing tetter iroiu liev. uenry warn Beecher not only explains the whole matter, but gives the, lie direct to the denial and is in the nature of a challenge to Blaine himself. The letter is dated at Brookly n, October 0, and isatldressed to "General R. A. Alger, candidate for the guber natorial office in Michigan :" Deak Sir. The publication of your telegram to Mr. James F. Foy, of Detroit, but now in Loudon, aud hjs iej,v compels me to ullish the facts of an interview with him at his home on or about Septeinbei "20, 1877, in order to clear myself of the charge of bearing false witness against him. 1 have steadily re fused to give to the public press the story of that interview at the hospitable board of a private house: but as the utterance of u public ffian about a public man I had a right to mention it privately among my intimate friends. In whut way the partial and imperfect story of that interview got into the news paper I do not know. Ceifa-nly not with my knowledge or privity. Misled by these reports, you tele graphed Mr. Joy in London DETKOlT, Sep. .'(, 1884.

Alger, Detroit, Mich. : Blaine nev er matte me any oner to appoint a committee to suit me in any mau ner or form or for any considera tion of any kind whatever. J. F. Joy. Please send to him the following narrative, and you may depend up on it. Mr. Joy will not contradict its substantial accuracy, neither will any ne of the several gentlemen wht were 'at the table, with me; nor will other witnesses, not a few, de ny tnat tne same suostant.iai srate-1 tueiits have been made by Mr. Joy to others not unfiequently. Toward the close of the dinner, September ''., 1877, political mat ters were introduced, ami among other tilings Blaine's, failure to re ceive the nomination that went to Hayes. Mr. Joy spoke with con temptuous severity of .Mr. l.laine and gave this statement : "When a difficulty occurred in regard to certain hinds in the southwest, in which I was interest ed, a committee was about to le ! appointed by Congress to examine I the matter, Blaine being speaker of 1 the House. Through a friend I j asked Mr. Blaine to have one sound ' lawyer appointed on that coniinit j tee, I did not care of which party. ! 1 simplv wanted a sound lawyer. In a day or two Mr. Blaine sent me word through a friend that he had certain depreciated bonds, and that if 1 would enable him to place them at par 'I eould have my committee as I wanted it.' " I cannot, forget with what cutting scorn Mr. Joy leaned back in his chair and said, 'That is the man Blaine is,r' and he added, "I refused the oiler, and as the courts soon settled the mat ter no committee was appointed. At that time I knew nothing of the lands in question nor o -Hie bonds alluded to, but 1 did under stand fully Mr. Joy's opinion of James G. Blaine. What changed Mr. Joj-'s notion and led him to nomiuafe Mr. Blaine at the Chicago convention in 1880 I do not know. It can probably be found out by iuquiring of the edi tors of certain great daily newspa pers, who hardly found language bitter enough for years to inveigh against Mr. Blaine and who now cannot hud language enough to pour contempt upon the men who do uofc approve of placing Mr Blaiue in the presidential chair. I shall not prolong this letter by narrating Mr. Blaine's views of the matters in an interview with iiif which took place after my sitecch at Cooper Union, during the Gar field canvass, at Lis own request, in tbi Fifth Avenue Hotel. 1 can hardly lelieve that he has forgot ten that. cannot but admit the mdomi- table pluck with which Mr. Blaiue . .lefending himself against such a , , " cloud of charges as was never made I against any other presidential can 5 didate since the govern merit began. ) Vet I cannot allow myself to le t misled by sympathy with his un 1 doubted kindheartedness, courage ami audacity. ! Unsound in statesmanlike judg- meat, unscrupulous in itohtical j methods, dim-eyetl in perireiving the distinction between truth aud untruth, absorbing ambitions, but shortsighted as to the inetltod of gr.itifying his ambition, but with a genial social .disositioii , ami a brilliant rhetorical capacity, Mr. BVANCJ THY (;OI)S.

This is the latest' of brother Blaine's- transactions that have come to lighU and the denials on which Mi. Reecltet places his foot, shows that fhe personal magnet ism" of fhe Republican candidate is of such a character that he is not only willing to lie hinielf, but has friends who are anxious I to equivo cate and lie in his behalf. The whole campaign, so far as the cor rupt Republican campaign is con cerned, has been given up to dodg ing and lying, and as it Iteguit so it will lend. According to the evi dence, there has. never been a time in brother Blaine's official history when he was not willing to prosti tute his position lor the sake of making money, tie is a fitting candidate of his party, and simply because he is corrupt.

We denounced Butler's caudida cy in the beginning as a transpar ent stttente to draw votes from tiov. Cleveland and aid in electing that prince of tricksters, James G. Bl.iire. Ills claim to' be the can didate of the "People's party," and to be the champion ot the la boring men in warring against nionpolies and nil governmental abuses that rob them of their earn ings and Aiake their lives harder, is a piece of barefaced humbug that deceives no one who remem bers his conference with Secretary William E.

Then, with an imperturbable expression on his face, he quietly' remarked, as the applause showed no signs of dimin ishing, "Take, your time geaile uien; we have yet the w hole night Ik fore us." This had the effect of ; producing a lull, .-of which Mr. Beecher took immediate advan tage. , . . ..r.

I say that if this city, if you measure the agriculture, the manufactures; if you consider the educatiou, the professional standing, the vast commerce which it controls, and if then you cast your eye upon its politcs and those who manage them, you will agree with me when I say that the man who can manage the polities of the State of New York is fit to manage "0 States of New York. "And for myself.

All eyes were, turned expectantly in I he direction from w hence the sounds came, and fhe next in stant the shout, "Cleveland is here'" rang through the auditori um ami brought every 'man ami woman to hit or her feet. It seemed as if every voice must have joined - in the welcoming .Jtoiits so great ami lasting was the volume of sound. Dignified gray-lieaided - -merchants forgot their reserve for the time being and stood up in their seats, vying with their clerks in enthusiastic efforts. A thousand white ha ml kerchiefs tluttcred over the heads of the multitude, and hats, news paers and flags were waved vig orously... Three cheers were pro losed for the Governor ami given with stirring unanimity. Then as Gov. Cleveland stepped to the front of the stage three more cheers were git'en, these were repeated once, twice, ami even three times, ami still the enthusiasm was unabated. To heighten the effect, the band played in stilwlued tones a stirring march. Then a lust v-hiiiged del egation of Columbia college '..students,-seated iu the galleries, gave a club cite -r for the Governor, w hich iwakened anew th demonstra tive spirit and kepi the audience in a wild tumult f'nraiiothei milt ttte. : Cheers swept ''through the auditorium in successive inints. ike the playing of vigorous breezes. The Governor w-n 'visi bly affected and MHiiewhut 1 em: barrassed by the overwhelming cordiality ol his greeting. When the applause ceased, Gov. -Cleveland began his brief speech in a lear strong voice, which could easily., be heard in every part of the auditorium. The Governor saitl .- "Gentlemen, 1 tftatik you lor this, and it seems to me that it is cause for congratulation to-night that the business men of this great metroK)lis have round reasons in the pending political struggle to unite, together for earnest effort. It has often seemed to me that one reason why we OS a people do not receive the fall advantage of our form of government has been found in the fact that our business men were too apt to neglect their political duties. Applause. The idea is quite too common that there is heroism and virtue in a refusal to hold ofiice, and ..that a stern denial of any interest in pol itics is a strong asseveration of personal virtue and; business in tegrity. Applause. The inter ests which this class have in charge and the protection ami safety of them are intimately con nected with the wise administra tion of the government. "Ami it seems to me that if their duty as citizens does not, compel them to take i part in political af fairs, chat their desire ami need of protection and self defence should lead them in that direction. Loud cheers. 1 believe, too, that , ..a government, is never bet ter administered than when it is conducted on business principles, fitpplaitNe,! ami it js quite evident to me. that, there Is no better way of impressing this iion the ml ministration of public affairs than by the interference of our business men in the .public affairs. Cheers 1 construe tins large and enthusi astic meeting, ami the determina turn in which it had its rise, as a promise that they have liecouie convinced that to have safety and protection they should take intelli gent mid active interest in itohti cal questions iiud tiolitical issues.' . After the'applause attendant on Gov. Cleveland's lemarks had died away the Rev. Henry Ward Beech er again came t the trout, and the audience .apparently imagining that they were going to hear the remainder of" an address, settled down peacefully. "(teiitlcineii," saitl the reverend gentleman, "the real regulation orator .always makes a point to wind up with a splendid climax Vou have had the climax and 1 ret ire." After this a letter v as read from Gov. S. J.
