"What puts so pleasant a smile upon your face aud such pleasini; words in your mouth si all tune a minister of this place was sked. "My religion; nothing else," wat the reply. And who could Dot wish s religion that would do so much ? Who could not desire to be possessed w ith that energizing principle tlut teaches one to bold all things a good -good, though evils in themselves ; gxl lie cause a part of a divine handiwork. wherein everything that is is need fid t Tis s poor man who, rses ing the comfort of life, is troubled about himself. Tis a worse one who, possessing the comforts of life, is not troubled about others. One who goes thnnigh this life with blinded eve and frozen heart is worse than selfish. He has sold to sordidness the birthright to members), ip tn the human family. He has lost the token of humanity. Else how could he go about the world and see the inno cent suffering, the helplessness, the wretchedness, tlie ignorance, the vice of environment and weakness rather than viciousncss all, all the thou sand forms of misery, and vet go on in smug complaccncv and ignore it all? But what comfort sIihII there be for him who sees, who feels, whose soul is riven by it all f Shall he find comfort in fatalism, believing that from it there is no cscae, that some inexorable law ha fixed it so, that a few must be happy and the many miner ? If he believe thai, he mav be comfortable, but he is lost, for the cable of sympathy which binds him to his fellows is cut, and he embarks ou an endless voyage iimiii the sea of selfishness, a voyage certain to end in disaster, though the navigator may not believe it. Then, shall he seek oasi ment from the source drawn tixui by the cheerful and pleasant minis ter? To be sure, this is the-best plan because it alone oilers any re ward ; it aloiiu provides a general readjustment where all men shall wve their dues, where injustice shall be relinked, mid when' the sulTcring shall ceaao to suiTcr. lint hen; the stake is in tlio future, which is good enough for the man who is comfort able here. Yet he still sees the suffer ing and the sin and the misery of his fellows here, and he begins to ques tion and to doubt ami to enquire, and to grow morbid that such things uc and go unheeded. W U O Dr. Basset t will resign his chair at Trinity on account of the intense antipathy that his article regarding social equality and the greatness of Hooker W aslunglon has amused. I guess," said a Monroe man, "that Messrs. tircsham and Jamison of Hamlet fell relieved when the guns of criticism were taken off of them and turned on -Prof. Basset!. It re minds mo of the story of the man in the stage coach who was one of three passengers. He was smoking, and :or a long lime continued to blow smoko into the face of one of Iws fel- ow-passcngers. Finally, that indi- ulual could stand it no longer, and turned U the smoker and said, 'Mis ter, would you mind blowing smoke into this other man's face awhile and letting me rest ?' The Hamlet folks must have been glad when the pub lic began blowing smoke in Prof. Dassctt's face." 0 0 0 Don't talk about a horse not hav ing plenty of sense," said Mr. J. J. Moody yesterday, as he looked kind ly towards the old black -which is such a familiar sight on the streets here. '"When 1 drive this horse tin town. I can't hardly get him away, ' continued Mr. Moody, "lie knows that so long as his head Isn t turned to the country he won't have any thing to do but piddle about - know s there's no long trip to make. And when he gets up about the square, 1 just can't hardly get him off at all. hv, he likes to lie around tliereand drink artesian water just like a man. At first he wouldn't drink it at all, but he gut to liking it so well he doesn't want anv other kind, and he never wants to pass one of the foun tains without stopping for a drink." .

It is not an Ideal condi tion of society which makts it neces sary for a woman to earn an inde pendent living, but conditions, like tie noor, we nave wiin us always. The girl who works bears the heat and burden of tho day with poor re ward, tnd she It often looked down uiion bv her more fortunate sisters, but she has a heart and soul as far above the luxurious woman as the sky is above the earth.
