A coai.ims station in North Carolina with coal dug from her own mines, is an event notable in the industrial progress the Stnte.

So long as it wnsngilnlcd. so long as there was hope of liljernl ex ienditureof public monev, there was pur pose to rely upou that agency lor tin maintenance ol education, and natural relaxation ol the efforts of the individual States to put forth their Ust ellorls in th cir own behalf. Aud this was one 01 the strongest reasons why the bill de served opKisttion ; for it is human uaturt to receive that which relieves it of ellorl ns justification for indolent deHiidenet iiKin the sources of gratuitous bounty. There was much in the lllnir bill to wii. or satisfy; much to disarm hostility. much to cm eilintc, and mm h to con vince. Hut behind and beneath it nil there was so much to alarm the spirit ol independence, so much to generate dc iendence, to much to sap the louulaiu I State sovereignty, withoul which fret national existence is imiHissiblc, that tin change in public sentiment is not sur prising. The time hits been when l In bill was not only popular, but rngcrlv Ivocntcd. The people called for it, leg islatures instructed for its passage. Hut hns grown steadily weaker the more it has been discuwed.n proof ol the wisdom deliberation in the adoption of great measures instead of hurrying them through on the first heated impulses ol popular tentimcnt. The most rciiiai ka le chunge hns been in the nllilu le of the publican party. With it the Itlair bill as the great pnuiiccn for nil the evils that nllliclcd the South. It was the grent pnrty measure, and u very insidi ous one; for it won to its support u Inrgc democratic following, either hrough generous consideration I'nr the aid it gave to education, or nt one ol the contemporaries admits in bis com plaints at the failure of the bill on its final passage, for the money it wits to bring in its train. Hut the republican uatc mllcred lownrd the Inst: nnd if there it any odium attached to miy party, must lull upon the inaionty of the scu te, who decreed the death of that hich for right years had the pillar of ght for the republican party. We, how- er, have 110 words of censure, for that majority did exactly what we wished. Knowing that some of our mutt val ued contemporaries were deeply commit ted to the bill and greatly deplore ill de tent, we must confess our admiration at the good humored philosophy with which the result is accepted. Wc quote as nn example the following comment of the News-Observer. It is disappointment, but it is not crimination: Wc suppose that the Hlair bill lint de parted this life. It was not near to strong at the South this year at nn pre vious occasions. The change of tenti mcnt is doubtless due to the feeling, that however much nid toednciition it needed, the drift towards federal Interference with the States has dcvclod so strongly thut it would be unwise to pass this measure, We regret very much t lint we nrc not to have this nid to our public scnoois, mills.

AN ELOQUENT SERMOX. HKVIKW OK UK. W. A. NKI SON'S TALK VKSTKRDAV, sonic Hound, HciiHllile Advice lo CiirlHllauH four Wasto Work WlliieMnlMir, alowliiir, I'lHhliiK and PreachliiK. Kev. W. A. Nelson preached for the lirst time since his return from Florida yester day morning nt the First Baptist church. The church was crowded almost to over flowing, and the uislc occupied by chairs which were filled. The sermon wns an excellent out. After ending tne lesson describing the ttorm which raged nt Paul anil the other prisoners were being carried to Koine, Dr. Nelson announced for hit text : "Whose I am, and Whom I serve," which is to be found in Ads 21 : 23. This exclamation was made by I'aul, when, the night licing dnrk nnd nil hoie and gone, the soldiers nnd sailors were saying, "W hut shull we do ?" Paul then apK'nml on deck and said: "And now I exhort you to lie of good cheer, for there shall lie no loss of nay man's life uuiong you, but of the ship. For there stood bv me this liilit , an augel of Cod, Whose 1 am mid Whom I serve, saying fear not I'niil, thou must lie brought before Ciesnr: ntiil, lo. Cod hath given thee all them that sail with thee." This shows the wonderful works ol (oil. I'd ul had for sometime hecu wish ing to go to Kome in order that he might prench, hut bad no npiortunit v, mid Oiicl made this the menus of gratifying his wish. The essence of a Christian life is contained in the words "Whose I am," and salvation nnd service are contained in "Whom I serve." The lirst thing to lie done is to deliver yourself Irom sin, and the next is to deliver your fellow mnn. Salvation is the power of t.oil to them that believe. A man cannot save himself, neither can his fellowmnn. nor angels, (iod alone can do it, by His Divine Miver. We mini put down our own contrary will, and do His. If the sailors had hearkened to I'aul they would not have Iki-ii ill such a tight place. There was no need of it had they obeyed. Service is implied by "Whom I serve." Happiness nnd joy come only Irom sci via-. You must lie useful. You arc the servants of him youola-y. If you are free from sin, you an servants ol righteousness. II you serve the Lord you ore his, or il you piclcr to serve satan. you are his. We can only be Christians at much as we tire Christ-like, and no more. II you are His you will I ive to aervrllim.liutno mnn can serve two musters. If you arc bent on making money nt all hazards. stop. ou are serving mammon, nnd you cannot serve I 'mil and innmiuoii. Every Christian is a workman. Cod alls Christians to render service in sav ing souls, nnd the unconverted mnn not to work, hut to reK-nt. No mini can work with effect in this line unless he is a Christian. There are four ways of working which are needed. The first is witnessing. Aud you must do this exactly nt it is done in the court house when evidence is being taken. No hearsay evidence is allowed, you must till what you know, and not what you have heard. The second way is by fishing lor men. Vou expert the preacher to do nil tne fishing. Most ieople who do attempt to do this urc like iwople who go fishing with it hook and line, and go and sit on top of a hill aud wait for the hshtocomr. They build a fine church and then wait for cople to come to it. The third wav is by sowing. The word of Cod is the teed, and the Christian is the tower. For rightly propagating the lecd, everylMidv must any to the sin ner, "Come!" The fourth mid last way is by preach ing. It is not necessary to stand in the pulpit to preach. Kindness to the af flicted) und to those who are troubled nnd needy can do a grctt deal of good in this line and should lie cultivated. THK UOVKKNSltvXIT lit II.IMNU.
