The late Representative Sleicher, of
Texas, was born at Darmstadt, Germany,
November 19, 182S, wajs educated1 at the
University of Gressoui iin

as a civil engineer in ths I construction of
several European railroads, emigrated to
Texas in 1847, and after passing s me
time ou the frontiers located at San An

State Housft of Representatives in 1853 4,
and of the State Senate in 1859-G1. was

ONE GOOD ACCOMPLISHED 61
THE FRENCH . EXHIBITION.
Daring the Paris Exposition nearly a
million and a half copies of the Gospel
and New Testament, in twenty-two lau-
guages, were given away to applicants.
The anxiety of the French working classes
tget these books in their own language
was very great. On the last Sunday of
0ctobert forty thousand books were dis
tributed, j These books were sent to Paris
by the Bible Stand Committee, of Crystal
Palace, London, and were in appropriate
stalls just outside the main entrance to
the Exhibition.
Commenting on these facts the Macon
Telegraph feelingly says: Think of the
good that more than a million of the
coplies.of God's word printed in so many
different languages must achieve among
nearly ail 6i the nations of Christendom!
Verily the Bible societies of this and other
countries are silent, but omnipotent levers
for the overflow of Pagan error
and sunerstitution, albeit they have
survived for more shan thirty
centuries. Before the Gospel, the writ
ings of Confucius, the heathen philosophy
of Plato and Socrates, and the infidelity of
JIume, Voltaire and Paine, must go down
eventually, as surely as the approach of the
king of day chases away the shades of
nigbt. The truth is mighty and will pre
vail. ' . '
. Who will say after this that the Paris
Exposition was merely a physical and ma
terial benefit to the world ? In that; bazar
of nations the Holy Scriptures, it has been
seen, were disseminated side by side with
the wonderful inrentions of human art and
skill to th Uttsriuost ends of the earth.
The lea veil of righteousness has thus been
introduced, ana it will go far to work out
the salvation of mankind.

Persons afflicted with rheumatism often

from it impurities which, in the opinion of

the gout. .Besides this the Bitters remedy
disorders of the stomach, liver and nerves,
prevent and eradicate intermittent fevers,
promote appetite and sleep, and are highly
