Tell me, pilgrim, faint and weary, Traveling o'er this pathway dim, Are you shedding light around you, Are you witnessing for Himy Do you try to tell the story Of the precious Savior's love? Are you hungering and thursting Evermore your love to prove? Are you seeking out the lost ones Whom the Master died to win? Are you showing them the fountain That can wash away their sins? Are you looking by the wayside For the weary ones who fallr Do you take them to the Savior, Who has premised rest for all? Do you love to read the Bible, Is it precious to your soul? Are its treasures growing richer As you travel toward the goal? Do you love to talk of Jesus More than all the world beside? Does it bring a holy comfort With his people to abide? Have you made a consecration Of your time and earthly store? If your all is on the alter, Then the Master asks no more. Thus, O pilgrim, should we journey, Showing forth the Master's praise, With our lamp all trimmed auu burning, That the world may catch their rays. Exchange. TIIE PRESENT OUTLOOK. New Berne Journal. At the present time the political outlook is most encouraging'. Ill the late elections Alabama and Arkansas have gone Democratic by increased majorities, while Vermont has gone Republican by an increased majority and Maine has gone Repub lican by a diminished majority. All of these States came up to Democratic expectations, with wonderful precision, except Maine, and there the Demo crats did better than was expected. Alabama and Arkansas are always Democratic, and Vermont and Maine are always Republican. Now let us look closely and see why it was that the Republican vote was increased in Vermont and the Democratic vote was increased in Maine The Fisheries dispute did it. Vermont has no seacoast, and therefore has no interest in the fisheries, but she has overland traffic with Canada. Any disturbance of existing relations between the two countries would destroy this trade, and in the event of war Vermont would be liable.to invasion from Canada. Mr. Edmonds the great Senator from Vermont, is especially concerned with Canadian interests, and is their champion in the Senate. It is true that there is no probability of a war between Canada and the United States, but it is as certain a fate that if Canada continues to impose on our fishermen there will be war, and this fact rallied the peo ple of Vermont in opposition to the Cleveland administration. In Maine things were very different. Maine has a seaboard, and is interested in the fisheries. In that part of Maine hying' on the Canadian border the Republican vote was increased, but in the seaports and commercial towns large Democratic gains were made. Of all occurrences since of the Presidential camj I T -i.'T- . jjemocracv. ne towns in .name directly interested in the fisheries have SUSiailJUU IUU i l&MUt'Ul. ll IS 1U Maine so it will be in all places inter- ested in the fisheries, making Coil- oi uame is most encouraging 10 iuuiuij3ci ; nc uiu uui ict uuu iu. f v Smallest Hair Throws a Shadoic." N. O., FRIDAY. September 28, 1888. neciicut and New Jersey as surely Democratic as Aiabam.i and Arkansas. So much for the late elections. What, then, is the Presidential out look? Beyond all, questions New York heads the Democratic column. The re-nomination of Cleveland by acclamation in ine national demo cratic Convention at St. Louis the re-nomination of Hill by acclama tion in the State Convention at Buffalo, makes New York Democratic beyond the shadow of a doubt. Now let us see. There are in the electoral college 401 votes; of these 201 are necessary to elect. The States of the South Alabama, Arkan sas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia. will give Cleveland and Thurman 153 votes. Only 48 more are necessary to their election. Of these New York will give 80, New .Jersey 9 and Con necticut 0, making three more than are needed. The States we have named are regarded "as "certain for Cleveland and Thurman. In addi tion to these tlie Democratic Campaign Committee claim Indiana with abso lute confidence. It is not forgotten that Gen. Harrison resides in Indiana, and due allowance is made for that fact. It is not every man who e opinion is worth anything, and among those whose opinions are entitled to consideration more weight attaches to some than to others. Senator Voor hees and ex-Senator McDonald are leading Democrats in Indiana. WTe, consider Mr. McDonald the safer guide in estimating the Vote of Indiana, because the present tensely enthusiastic, tions have been met, fcenator is in All his aspira and he views mountain top the prospect from the and sees an overwhelming Democratic majority in Indiana. 3Ir. McDonald has been more or less disappointed of late years and is inclined to look on the dark side in politics. He has lately said that "Indiana is neither Democratic nor Republican. The way the State will go depends upon the vote of the greenback men and the wording men, ami all these are now for Cleveland and Thurman." Passing by the enthusiastic utterances of Sen ator Voorhees, and accepting the more careful opinions of ex-Senator 3IcDon ald, we must conclude that Indiana will vote for Cleveland and Thurman. There are a lanre number of Demo cratic statesmen and publicists who also claim California, Colorado, Oregon, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin, but as there is no more need for them than there is tor a htth wheel to n wagon, we take no account of them. Looking at all the evidences, pro and con, as now presented, the elec tion of Cleveland and Thurman is absolutely sure. NEGROES $i.00 APIECE. A dispatch to the New York Herald says that Ithaca (N.
