It Is a fact that the Observer real ly furnishes to its readers more religions news than one usuauy arets out the church- papers.- Qood Sunday readlns; may be found m it any -day in the week, ana with, the good paper, the jrood preachers and : tha ' g-00- people, it does look aa if Charlotte oufht to be converted pretty soon, from centra to circamference. - It seems that the preachers have all been putting in sood time, and 1 do hope that every sermon has brought forth glory to God. and good to man. y r-- '- ....j :., Tfae Observer of the lth Inst, eon tained the outline of a sermon preach. ed by one of Charlotte's distinguished divines from Job S6:18. that impressed me. I found the text and studied the outline by it. It is a good text, and the sermon, of course, likewise It .rwas divided into three heads,! says thi Ob server; that Is enough t or any sermon; one having more is dangerous. Inr the third head of this sermon, however, there is a statement which I think a little too broad, via.: "When God gave his Son as a ransom for the sinner. He exhausted himsel.. He can do no more. It ia with the sinner to accept or re Ject. The conclusion is correct, but j cannot admit as to the truth, that God Is exhausted and can do ho more. That He will do no more ia the matter of a sinner's salvation is clear; equally true ia it that Jesus Christ is the one sac rifice for sins forever, and therefore, there is no more sacrifice for-sin; bnt with God,' nothing is impossible, and He can do Just what He pleases and still be Immutable. That tne sinner's damnaUon is his own fault,. we heartily accept, and that damning fault is un belief. There lived years ago in old Carolina an able judge, upright, great and good, who said on an important occasion, at a time when the souls of patriots were being tried as by fire, "The Judiciary is exhausted;" but subsequent events proved this to be- a mistake; yet had the one who uttered the words lived in the day of Diogenes, that worthy would have needed no light to find an honest man. While we are taught that there is but one way and one name under heaven by which man can be saved, let us not put any limit to the power of God, ever remembering that He is able to do greater things tor us than we have thought, and that He is absolutely limitless in His power. I hope the dear brother, whom I have learned to love through the Observer, will pardon the liberty I take of re viewing just a little bit of what I know was a sermon baptized by the Holy Ghost, and fraught with good results to all who heard It. If I were only able physically, somebody would hear me preaching from his text and it is not unlikely get some of the preachers shot. That preacher is a wise man, showing his wisdom in the use of lan guage easily understood by the plain people. In bis sermon there is no straining after effect save to make the Gospel plain, fits preaching will save men (and I don't believe many of hia converts will ever fall from grace). In your issue to-day, you note that Dr. Bays emphasized the fact in his sermon from Mark 6:4, "that no pro hibition measures, no mere reformation can save men. The doctor is exactly right. Jesus Christ living in the man Is what tells. "Where does J sus live?" said a mission school' teacher to one of his pupils. "Please, sir. He lives in our alley now," replied the boy. Oh, the power of an indwelling Christ. That boy had been converted and I guar antee is converted yet. Whoever im agined that the Gadarene demoniac ever went back into the tombs after his conversion? I hope the doctor may have a good meeting and the Holston preacher be baptized with power.' It is to be devoutly wished that our progressive city of Charlotte may have the man for mayor who is most capa ble and worthy. It would not do for her to have a "back set." Will you permit me to say that the character of the man who sits tn her. gate as chief magistrate, should be like this: There was a man in the land of Ui, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evlL" Job 1:1. Tou have got him, and I hope he will be elected. It will never, do for things to go backward at the hub. J. C. T. Fayettevllle, N. C. April 21, 1897. MR. BOSK MAM '8 GRIKVAKCK. lit. Holly Polities from His Standpoint H la a Progressive, Mot a Political, Can tll late. To the Editor of the Observer I notice in your paper of to-day a statement to the intent that Mount Holly, like Charlotte, is having an in teresting contest over the election of mayor; further speaking, the communi cation says Messrs. Bowman and Bose man are the two contestants on the Republican-Populist ticket, that the convenUon that met to nominate Ued on the two men and both are still in the field, neither one having the official en dorsement of fusion, etc. Now, Mr. Editor, I don't like to be drawn into" any newspaper controversy. but I feel it my duty to both myself and friends to ask you for a little space in your paper to give the facts In the case and to clear myself of any such bombast. As to the convention, it was called by the mayor and board of aldermen, to nominate candidates for offices. There has not been to my knowledge, any po litical convention here at all. but sim ply a mass meeting of citizens, to nom inate;' my name was placed before the meeting and on first ballot I received a majority of three over ail other candi dates combined, which should have en titled me to the nomination. Some wished to make the two-thirds rule. and by a succession of ballots this I never was able to receive. Ultimately the meeting decided to allow myself and Mr. Bowman to run as opposing candidates at the general election of the town. As for myself I entered the race as a progressive candidate and not as a political one. t As to my politics, it is well trader stood by all' who know me that I am nationally a Republican. - I have al ways been and expect to endeavor to remain a State, county and municipal Democrat, and my previous record will bear me out In these remarks. . Bo far as. the. Democrats sweeping everything is concerned to this, I have no objec tion. -However, if I am to be read out of the party and be branded as a fiat footed Republican, I am afraid Mount Holly Is to have ) a Republican may ar (provided I stay ! in toe race), as to fusion I nave the same use for that that you seem to have for us national RepablicansL - 1 . v- t-: - - - I am somewhat trader the hnpressian that your correspondent must tie galled horse or he-would not have . writ ten any such stuff; you might send him around, however, and probably X can assist hint : somehow to dress his wounds.

It is no disparagement' to any one of our time to say that the Thirty-seventh ana Xnlrty-eigntn an grosses were far superior, both in con struction and destruction statesman shin, -to any that has sat in that capitoi for the twenty years last past. It was natural that thev should be so. Great occasion makes the great man. and tfae period of 18l-"65 was the greatest oc casion, so far aa concerns this hemis phere, of- the- century. - : . ; No ordinary man could be Conspicu. ous in.the Thirty-seventh Congress. At that . time voorhees was less - than M years of age, and yet, before he was a year, older, be was as great a force In the House as any member of the mi nority a minority that included Grit tenden and Wickliff, Vallandingham. Pendleton, and Cox. The paramount issue was the conduct of the greatest war of modem times, and incident to it was the personal liberty of the citi zen. - The Republican leaders were ter ribly in earnest, and had no notion of being checked by a strict observance o . the rights guaranteed by tfae writ of habeas corpus. Voorhees had dis tinguished himself as counsel for the defense in the trial of one of the ac cused of the John Brown raid, and as an orator he was the first on the "Death of Liberty," made in the Thlr. ty-seventh Congress, in the Demo. cratic case of that day, and while he was right in the argument, he did not realize that the occasion was such as to make exception to all accepted rules. Though Voorhees might have con tested the supremacy with himS he cordially recognized the primacy of Thomas A. Hendricks in the Democrat ic party of Indiana. And to that mag. nanimity on his part was due the fact that for many years the Democracy of Indiana was not torn by faction. Per. haps it.' ndricks expected more admira tion than Voorhees: but certainly Voor- nees was more loved than Hendricks; the latter was "Dan." Hendricks was the commander-in-chief; Voorhees was the trusted lieutenant. And to this was due the fact that not even .the coolness between the followers of Mc Donald could impair the superb discip line or the Indiana Democracy. The Republicans were not so fortunate. Oliver P. Morton was an autocrat. He repelled Julian and drove him out of the party; be saw "many Mariuses" In Harrison, and as long as Morton lived, Harrison was kept in comparative ob scurity, and when Morton died he left a Pandora legacy to his party the feud between Harrison anu Gresham. The greatest campaign of Voorhees' careerr was that of 1876 the Tilder campaign. The Democratic candidate for Governor was the celebrated "Blue Jeans" Williams, who had been a mem ber of the Forty-fourth Congress, and i aa chairman of the committee on ac counts, he had refused to pass the 1 doorkeeper's bUl for lemonade which the members of several previous Con gresses enjoyed at public expense, and wnich senators were not in for. Wil liams was an old-fashioned man. as plain in appearance as a stone fence. and as Democratic in demeanor as a coon-skin cap. Voorhees accompanied him over the State, and the pair ap peared on the stump in every county from Stenhen to Posey, Irom Lake to' Switzerland. It was the most stub bornly contested election in the history of American politics and the ablest conducted. Hendricks was the Democratic candidate for Vice Presi dent, but Morton was yet living, with vigor enough left to fight his last and most heroic batUe. Indiana was then an October State, and the Democrats triumphed. The night of the election Morton started on a special train for Hayes. But the campaign of 1876 made Daniel W. Voorhees a Senator in con gress for twenty years. At the bar Voorhees was a successful practiUoner. He was not a great Ju rist like Marshall, Storey, Curt is. Black, Carpenter, Thurraan, Trumbull or Ben jamin Hill. Such jurists are born so, just as generals and poets are born. But Voorhees was a great advocate. He was not the orator of the class of Wendell Phillips, Henry Winter Davis. Joseph Holt, or Thomas F. Marshall; but he had a 'clear, analytical mind, a ready and attractive vocabulary, and above all, he was a genial man, a man of sympathy, a man who hated oppres ion, a man to whom the suffering of a fellow-creature was personal torture. And so It was that he met with almost unbroken success at the criminal bar, not only In his own State, but in Mis souri, in Maryland, In Tennessee and in Kentucky. Philip B. Thompson, Sr., of Kentucky, is perhaps the most suc cessful criminal lawyer this country has ever known since James T. Brady and that Nestor of the criminal bar would have chosen Voorhees among all the lawyers of the Union as his asso ciate in a disputed case, i Voorhees loved good fellowship. Mal ice and he were strangers. Though a partisan of partisans, l.e never carried his politics into social life. The friend ship between him and the late James 6. Blaine, continued from their first acquaintance untU death separated them. Beck, Blaine, and Voorhees were a host when in social converse, and many an Attic night they made of it. But in the Senate, when a political question was tfae theme, it was lay on. Macduff. One day Blaine was skir mishing along the whole Democratic line, engaging Voorhees, Thurman, Beck, Hill, Lamar, and the others. He was citing some statisUcs of Southern elections, and In his hurry he read from the wrong column. In a moment he corrected himself with the words, "I was wrong about that. Before he gave the correct reading, Voorhees, his face as threatening as a thunder-cloud, supplemented Blaine's words, "as usual." For once in his life the Plumed Knight was disconcerted. A senatorial smile relaxed the chamber. Blaine soon yielded the floor and west over to Voorhees' seat and confessed that the Inadvertent - and spontaneous sarcasm had put him out more than all the logic of Thurman and all the eloquence of Hill. ! Voorhees waa a princely man. He could never realise the value of a dol lar. Nearly thirty years of his life were spent at this capital, and so far as providing against a rainy day was concerned, every day was aa though the next was the day of Judgment. His heart was" open, to every tale of dis tress and so was hia purse, though, alas,- the latter was all too frequently empty. It waa this phase of his char. acter that prompted him to support all pension legislation looking to an in crease of the rolL He waa no- dema gogue and never calculated that tfae slfrrhtest political advantage would re sult 'to himself- Since : 1S61 he ' had given to the professional "dependents" nftbis town enough to have rendered Tnhrpset Independent in his -old age. Perhaps this Is a -weakness perhaps. The man" of heart, however, will regard it as a trearare. which In the sweet by aad bye will yield a greater- return than all the wealth of 'all the mines. than' all the riches of all the coffers of all the hanks of all the world. Ten years In the Hons, and upward of nineteen in the Senate measure the duration of bis service in the national cou-cila. A And every moment of It was honorable. When corruption .stalked the corrtdors. lived In tfae -committee rooms, and brazen and - wanton, sat on he floor of either chamber. Damef W.

It Will Soon bo the Cnntom la Financial Circles to Favor Roothern Securities Ik Passing of the Anti-Corporation Crase. Baltimore, April 22. The Manufac turers;, Record of Baltimore, publishes this week an Interview with ex-Secretary of the Navy Herbert, in which he; takes the ground that as soon as the conservatism of the Southern people and the Inherent soundness of their principles shall be made sufficiently widely known." it will become the cus tom in financial circles to favor South ern securities. He bases his Idea of the conservatism of the South upon the fact that a population of unmixed Anglo Saxonism has been trained under com mon law institutions to regard prece dent, and to venerate law and order and Justice. He admits that tnere nas been In the south some or tne anu- corporation craze, but from his stand point, which is exceptionally good for obtaining a broad view of existing con ditions, he sees a passing of the evu. and he predicts that it can never live long enough to become sufficiently vig orous to do any real damage to sootn- ern atmosphere. The age of machinery and l-rge enterprises, ne is convinced, is leading Southerners to appreciate the advantages of associated labor and cap ital in corporate enterprises for the utilizations of inventions, and that the day is not far distant when the poli tician of the South who indulges in wholesale and Indiscriminate abuse of corporations will be put down as an en emy to the best interests of the coun trv. He said: "It would be worth many millions of dollars for the South's future development if our people should right now take the lead In manifesting a spirit of fairness toward tne rail roads, as they have abundant encour agement for doing, by reason of the fact that most of our railroads are man aged on such liberal lines as to deserve popular co-operation, having as a rule voluntarily adopted policies of respect for the public's rights and calculated to promote the public's wetrare." 1 Dr. J.

The bull traders bought and bid up the market, but the specu lation was not strong enough to hold the market, all of which, but 1 point. was lost later on efforts or some com ers to liquidate. It was a small, nar row and featureless market, ana very disappointing one - to those who have been predicting nigner pneea. Aside from Liverpool cables, all, the news waa bearish.
