Ware for the foliowiug copy of the address of Bishop Galloway at the funeral of the late Sam Jones. It ia a moot illuminating atory of thia wouderful man. "I am here not to eulogize the distinguished dead, bat to lay dower upon the grave of a personal friend, aud pay grateful tribute te the memory of a most remarkable man. I have come to 'weep with thou? that weep.' A great Stale bts loot its lieat known citizen, a great church its most popular and powerful preacher, the natiou its most noted evangelist, and the causa of public morality one of its mightiest and most fearless chain- pious. In the strength of Lis yeaia when his sun was at the ze uith, liefore his powers had begun to fail or to lose his voire, this great man in Israel has been sum uioned to his reward. " hat strange paradoxes were wrapped np in that masterful man and bis brilliant career, tie was a genius without eccentricity, a great iiersonality without peculiarities, unique without being erratic, a wonderful orator without the grace of oratory, a marvelous preacher with little concern for the rules of hoiniletios, and a philosopher with tut the aid of a pale guide aud a student's lamp. "He had all the gift, without the cultivation of a great philosopher, v bat be lacked in learning was made up in keen penetration and clear discernment of a student of human nature. If limited in his familiarity with history, be kuew the forces that make history and determine destiny. "Had bis knowledge of books equalled his acquaintance with meu had he known the history of the human heart as well ' as he kuew its great motives and subtle passions he might have com manded a much larger place in the story of the times. "He hud many rare qualities and attractive virtues, but one great gift the gift of commanding ut terance. And upou that his fame will rest and his influence abide. Ilia pre eminence was as a preach er. Uod anointed him to be a prophet in Israel and clothed him with a power seen but a few times in a generation. He was not called to weild a pen, but to be a voice crying in the wilderness. He might have succeeded at the bar, but bis throne was the pulpit and bis mis sion the redemption of his fellow- men. 'And what a master of assem blies he was 1 Measured by the multiplied tbousauds that crowded again and again to hear him, and by the dead consciences he awaken ed, and the peuiteutial tears he nspired, and the reforms he in stituted, aud the converted souls he led to his Lord he must go down to history as one of the most con spicuous figures of the last half tury. "W ere I called upon to state in a few words the qualities that give greatuess to this master of assem blies aud enabled him to sway, with the wand of a magician, the vast thousands that crowded to Consumption J There is no specific for consumption. Fresh air, ex ercise, nourishing food and Scott's Emulsion will come pretty near curing it, if there is anything to build on. Mil lions of people throughout the world are iving and in good health on one lung. 3 From time immemorial the octors prescribed cod liver oil for consumption. Of course the patient could not take it in its old form, hence it did very little good. They CM take SCOTT'S EMULSION and tolerate it for a long time. There is no oil, not excepting butter, so easily digested and absorbed by the system as cod liver oil in the form of Scotl's Emulsion, and dial is the reason it is so helpful in consumption where its use must be continuous.

"He said more quotable things than any man la his generation. There are few homes in which some ssyiugsof his is not repeated. He had a geuius for proverb- makiug. "I believe that one secret of his strange power as a preacher the fact that ail bis appeals were directly to the human conscience. His theory was that the conscience was on the same level whether iu philosopher or a child whether in a scholar or an illiterate. A ud that the message needed to arouse the one could not fail to awaken the other. Therefore, like St. Paul, he felt himself a debtor to the (ireek and the barbarian, to the wise and the unwise. "He demonstrated the fact that the day of the preacher aud public speaker baa not passed. The Iiv iug voire ia aa potential to day as ever in the world's history. The printed page mny inform the bn mau mind, but the living messenger is necessary to kindle passion and urge men to action. The preaching function of the priesthood can never lose its authority. As in the olden times wben Isaiah's voice was heard in Israel, and Paul preachod on Mar's Hill, the divinely called man with a message will ever le the mightiest force in his generation "His life of almost unexampled activity was dominated by oue high and holy purpose to do good to his fullowmau aud faithfully serve his generation by the will of uod, rrora that purpose be was never deflected, and from God's service bis heart never felt the slightest alieniation. To that high aim every munition was subordinated, aud ev ery energy put in commission. Believing that Providence had clearly indicated his field of largest usefulness to be uucoiiiiued by the narrow limits of a local pastorate, he retired from the regular itiner ant ministry, and made the nation his parish. Whatever the judg ment of others as to the wisdom of that course, he never doubted that Ood had ordered it, and His bless iugs would approve it. In every State of (the Union his voice was heard by eager thousands, preach ing with the same fearless fidelity and Christly sympathy as to the humble frieuda aud neighbors ou bis first Georgia Circuit. itbout attempting any re cital of the facta of a brilliant his tory, I shall merely mention a fea- features of a uoble character. "First of all, because above all, and best of all, our honored broth er was remarkable for the strength and solidity of his moral character. There was granite iu its founda tion aud every living stone was polished after the similitude of a palace, flaws there may have been, but no fissures discolor tions, but no disintegration. The storms of life sometimes strained, but never moved it. The rains drenched, the floods came -and the winds blew but when the sky had cleared he stood unshaken aud ma jestic as a mighty mountain. How ever much uieu may have criti cised his utterances, or questioned the wisdom of his policies, no one ever doubted the integrity aud pu rity of his character. "Had there been iu it any serious weakness, some curious or envious eye would have quickly discovered it aud loudly proclaimed it, but throughout his brilliant career, every hour in the fierce public glare, his mission and methods as a reformer inviting and encounter ing stubborn hostility, he fought and wrought and finally died, without the faiutes shadow ou his beautiful character. lucre were notches on his trusty blade, but not a blur on his noble name. "He genuiuely loved his fellow- men, and never lost hope for hu mauity. He believed in a gospel that can redeem a world, and, like his Lord, be weut out to seek and to save the lost And no poor prodigal ever got so low or wander ed so far as to be leyoud the reach of his hopeful message aud helpful sympathy. And that made the world love him so. There is noth ing more divinely attractive than the radiance of hoa, and nothing so cheerful and forbidding aa the notes of discouragement and des pair. Tell a poor blasted, blistered soul that there is hope for him, and bis waitings will turn to pleadings, and bis despair into the tones of prevailing prayer. It was thiaever reiterated gospel for the worst sin ner that helped to attract the thou sands to his ministry. "The bells of St, Michael's in Charleston, 8. C, that have chimed the houia of morning and evening prayer since colonial times have strange history. They have crossed the Atlantle Ocean five time. Imr ing the civil war they were shipped to Colombia for safe-keeping. But on a certain famous march to the sea they were burned and broken iuto fragments by the band of a vandal. Every sacred piece was gathered up, and all shipped back to the foundry Jn which they were originally cast. There they were made anew and brooght borne to the tower of St. Michael's without the lots of a single note or the low ering of a single majestic tone.

"His moral rourag was nothing less than sublime. What lie con ceived to be the path of duty he would pursue, though a lion crouch ed in the shadow of every tree. No threat of man, or fear of all the legions of darkness, could stay his course or hush his Imperial voice. And yet there was in him nothing of rashness, and lie never spoke without premeditation. His was not a harsh, but a gentle nature. He had a strong, soil hand. The tones of his voice were authori tative, but the undertones were gentleness and love. Though he sometimes showed the steruness of a Hebrew prophet, he really had the tenderness and sweet persua siveness of an apostle. Who but this master of the human heart could unite such startling and over whelming plainness of sieech with lyric tenderness aud irresistible persuasiveness! With a sternness that was at times as awful as Sinai, he united a pathos that made every eye a fountain of tears. "If he sometimes used the murk rske, it was not simply to expose the rotteuneas of society aud the wickedness of the world, but that the healing light of the truth might shine upon and cure it. He un covered sin that it might lie de stroyed, lie rent the robe of hypoc rsey that its ghastly deformity might cease to deceive. Hilt for every penitent he had a mantle of charity, and for every home-coming prodigal a joyous welcome. "lie was free from the weak nesses and vices of narrow natures. His great soul was too generous for jealously and too broad for bigotry. Kuvy found no hiding place in his brotherly and sunny heart, lie coveted no man's position or pos sessions and envied no human being bis fame or his fortune. It never occurred to him that any river stood in the way of his at taiumcnts or achievements. No Mordecai sat iu the gateway of his noble soul. He rejoiced that the world is wide with an inviting field for every honest toiler, and ample reward for every faithful workman; that there is a chaplet for every heroic brow, and a throne for every really royal soul. While deeply appreciative of his large place in the nation s esteem par donably proud of his wonderful and long sustained popularity he generously rejoiced iu Ihe honors and succes of every worthy man, I never beard hi ni speak adispara ging word of any mortal who bad high aims and a serious purpose, His renerons hand would have withered had he attempted to pluck a star from another's crown. Such magnanimity Is one of the final testa of true greatness."

Suppose the carpenters of Wellington think they should have higher wages. They make ol their employers a demand for an increase, let us say, of a shil lings day. Su pilose the employ ee refuse the demand. The car penters' uniou uow brings the mat ter la-fore the Arbitration Court, which summons both sides for a hearing. The carpenters through a representative (not an attorney) present their case; the employers make answer through a similar channel, that the demand is un reasonable, unwarranted, and they cannot afford to grant it. Where upon the employers are ordered to produce their books and show to the court (not to anybody else) whether their profits will or will not justify the increase. If the court thinks the condition in the building trade tlo not warrant the enhanced wages, it dismisses the petition and the matter is ended. if it thinks the employers can af ford to pay a shilling a day more, it makes au order to that effect, and for the next two years iu the WelliiiL'ton district the scale thus fixed by the court will be the mini mum wage for carpenters.

The sack is carried ou the shoulders. The Texas equipment consists of a canvas sack alsuit two teet in diameter and seven or eight feet long. The tucker attaches a sack to Ins shoulders by means of a strap as in the rase of the smaller sacks; but he docs not pretend to be bur dened with the constantly in creasing load of cotton in the sack. Instead the sack is dragged along the row until it has Ix-en tilled when the contents are weighed to gether with the sack. The sack holds, when full, forty or fifty pounds of cotton.
