The Ohio republicans in their state
convention passed a resolution in favor
of the "unwritten law " and against a
third-term for president.
We observe that in various quarter*
ex-Governor Curtin is suggested for
state senator to till the vacancy of Mr.
Wallace. It will bo remembered that
the democrats placed the same distin
guished gentleman upon their ticket as
dclegwtc-at-large to the constitutional
convention, upon the resignation of Gov
Bigler, and that Mr. Curtin proved one
of the eminent members of that body,
and introduced some of the most whole
some futures of the constitution, and
was in entire harmony with the th-inoc
racy upon the needed reforms. We do
not know whether he would accept the
senatondiip, but we do know that if he
occupied Mr. Wallace's seat, that Mr.
Wallace axmW km *vu*r, and the
people an able champion of their right*.
The grain speculators al Chicago held
a stock of grain worth ten millions of
dollar*, and re/used tojlet it go when
thev could have got good price*, exact
ing to get better. They carried this im
mense stock upon borrow ed money , ami
now that the market has broken, then
is danger that many of thcui will fail.
Thv speculation, like most reverse* of the
kind, benefitted no one. but served, in
stead. to paralyse business and retard
the return of confidence.
If the Lancaster convention had en
dorsed the third-term, or remained si
lent upon it, wonder whether Grant
would have come out with a letter say
ing he did not want it any more than
the first.
tirant says he doc# not waut the third
term any more than he did the first. We
believe it—any onekuowshe was anxious
for the first, and after getting it also
wrote a letter containing similar lan
guage. saying he did not wwnf the second
term any more than the first. We sup
pose he feels inclined to presidential
terms as with presents, he is anxious lor
and takes all he can get.
The New York Tribune has taken the
trouble to analyse the hotel bill paid for
President Grant and his half dozen
champions by the authorities of Boston
on the occasion of the Concord and Lex
ington Centennial celebration. Among
the items are fpit worth of whiskey and
the Republican journals still insist that
Grant is not a drinking man.
The Huntingdon Journal denounces
the action of the republican state con
vention in admitting the Woods dele*
gates to seats in the convention, and giv
ing them equal representation, as an
insult to the republicans of that county.
It significantly adds . "The republicans
of this county will find their remedy for
wrong inside the organization, notwith
standing the example of Mackev and
Don, and notwithstanding even the en
couragement given to bolters by this re
cognition of them by state convention."
In the opinion of the Journal the work
of settling the party differences will be
"a harder job than ever before." The
Globe, on the other hand, is jubilant
over the action of the state convention,
and boasts that it represents the regular
republican party in Huntingdon county,
the Scott faction being bolters and dia
organizers. The admission of a delegate
and the concession of halt a vote the
Globe insists was a whole recognition
both by the convention and the oppo
sing faction. If the Scott faction did not
like the arrangement they had liberty
to withdraw. On the vote for state
treasurer, the Woods-Goss delegates
voted for Rawley. and the Scott delegate
voted for Strang. This is mentioned by
the Globe as an additional proof that the
faction whom it represents is more near
ly in harmony with the republican or
ganization in the state.
The Times says there is quite a differ
ence between "the unwritten law of the
Republic" on the third-term question,
as declared {jv the Lancaster Conven
tion, and the written law on the same
subject as laid down by Grant in answer
to the deliverance of that body. The
Lancaster platform on the third-term is
as follows:
Reaolted, That we declare a firm and
unqualified adherance to the unwritten
law of the Republic, which wisely, and
under the sanction of the most venera
ble of examples, limits the Presidential
service of any citizen to two terms, and
we, the Republicans of Pennsylvania, in
recognition of this law, are unalterabiy
opposed to the election to the Presiden
cy of any person for a third-term.
The written law of the party, as de
livered by Grant is as follows •
Now for the "third term." /Ho not
won/ i/ any more thou I did the firA. I
would not write or utter aw ord to change
the will of the people in expressing and !
Laving their choice. The question of
the number of terms allowed to anv one
Executive can only come up fairly in
the shape of a proposition to amend the
Constitution, in a shape in which all po
ltiral parties can participate, fixing the
length of time or the number of terms
for which any one person can be eligible
for the office of President. Until such
an amendment is adopted the people
cannot be restricted in their choice by a
resolution, further than they arc now
restricted as to age, nationality, etc. It
may happen in the future history of the
country that to change an Executive be
cause he has been eight years in office
Will prove unfortunate if not disaatrous.
t *i- ' wou 'd not accept a
nomination if it were tendered, unless it
should come under such circumstances
ss to make it an imperative dutv, cir
cumstances not likely to arise.
Will some of the organs oblige the
public by stating just which of the two
connecting deliverances is to be accept
ed as the law of the party?
GOVERNMENT WHISKEY.— Much idle
gossip has sprung up in temperate (?)
New England, since the Concord cele
bration, with reference to the amouut
of grog the Presidential party consumed
on that occasion. The followiug de
spatch from Boston, dated May 26, is to
the point: The inquiry of how much
Whiskey General Ganrt and his party
drank on the occasion of his visit to the
Concord and Lexington centennial
promises to be an interesting and dis
turbing question. At a meeting of the
State Temperance Alliance this after
noon, presided over by ex-Governor
Traak, a Mr. H. D. Gushing stirred up
the meeting by offering a resolution that
• committee be appointed to ascertain
•nd report whether liquors were fur
bished by the state to its guests on the
occasion of the Lexington and Concord
centennial. Mr. Gushing explained that
his reason for offering the resolution was
the feet that the newspapers have pub
lished a hill, from Revere lfouse, giving
a* one oftho item* in the entertainment
of the President and party over f4!l for
wine antl cigar*. Mr. CUshing odilnl
that ho had it froth the intimate friends,
not the enetuic* of President Grant,that
there i* danger of Grant's falling Iwok
into the condition ho wax in proceeding

Far bo it from na, nava the World, hast
ily to class President Grant with the
persons of whom it is proverbial that
long memories are indiapeuaibloto theii
•uccesa, But when President Grant sat
down, all by himself, ua we are assured
he did, "not even ex-Govornur Shop
herd being with him," to indite hi* re
markable dying speech ami ooA'*ioti
about the thiol term, he fell into a de
plorable blunder, from w hioh a owliT
head and a more retentive memory
might have aaved him. Tlio President
deliberately say.* in hi* letter of \londa>
morning to General White that he
break* hi* silence alxnit the question of
a third term ouly because the question
ha* been Vsitidorwl" hy a body "oftho
dignity and authority of a jxirty eouvcu
tioti to make nomination* for the Mate
otlWra." t)f course thi* statement i* a
rediculou# ono to make if it ran be
abown not only that "ihe question" had
been "considered" hy such a body a* the
President here speak* of long before it
wa* "considered" by the Pennsylvania
Convention, but that it.had been "con
sidered by such abody with adirectzmd
personal reference to President Grant
himself which is not to bo found in the
"consideration" it received form the
Pwnnayl vanians. The Prwldeßt'a jwrty
iu South Carolina no lougm ago tb.ui
last year, at a time w hen the fate of tin-
President's party throughout the I'nioti
was hanging in the balance, "consider
ed" the question of a third term and
came to thi* conclusion : "We pledge
ourselves to the support of Pyfaidout
tirant for a third term, assured that by
so doing wo shall preserve that jieaoe
aud unity throughout the whole country
so necessary to its prosperity." Here
was a plain proth-r to the President,
made by a IKKIV to which he at least ill
hardly deny either "dignity or authori
ty," of a re-election. The opponents of
the Republican party, well aware that
the people of this country are unaltera
bly hostile to any departure from the
wholesome custom of the fathers on this
point, arraigned and were justified in
arraigniug the Republican {tarty on the
strength of this action of a thorough*
paced Republican Mate Convention for
conniving in a plan to lift President
Grant for a third time iuto the Execu
tive chair. This attack could only have
been met and encountered by the I'resi
dent himself If he did not desire a re
election, and if he did desire the per
petuation and triumph of tlie party which
had twice made him President, it was
his plain duty to have given that party
at once the substantial help which only
he could give it, of assuriug hi* zealous
friends in South Carolina that he would
not accept the nomination which they
had thus early and thus unequivocally
given hint. Common civility would
have dictated some recognition of their
ardent devotion, and in recognizing it
nothing would have been easier than for
the President in a few clear manly word*
to announce his disinclination to he
pressed in the way which they had pro
posed npon their party and the country.
He made absolutelv no sign.
But now in May, 1875, when the Re
publican Convention in Pennsylvania,
without meaning President tirant at all,
declares itself "unalterably opposed to
the election to "the Presidency of any
person for a third "term," President
Grant rushes at once into print tq tell
the convention that while it is true that
he doe* not want a reuoniination, neith
er the convention nor anybody else can
prevent his t<eingrenominated until "an
amendment to the Constitution has been
adopted" "fixing the length of time or
the number of terms for which any one
person shall be eligible to the office of
President."
In other words, the question of a
third term has been twice brought plain
ly before President (irant by two
conventions of the only party by which
President Grunt, if he is to be renomin
ated Archbishop of Granada by the
Pope. The first of these conventions
(bodies of equal "'authority and dignity**)
expressly renominated Grant for a third
term. President (irant heard, and, by
his silence, gave assent to the nomina
tion. The second of these conventions
finding that the action of tha first and
the virtual endorsement of its action by
President Grant had brought tlie party
well nigh to destruction, expressly de
clared against the election of anybody at
all (without naming Grant) to the Pres
idency for three terms. President
Grant hears and instantly flames
out with a letter, tho only plain and [>os
itivc statement in which is an angry de
claration that he has a perfect ri"ht to
be renominated, if any body likes to re
nominate him, until "an amendment to
the Constitution" prevents it. In the
lace ol these simple facts what becomes
of the President's assertion that at was
only the "dignity and authority" of the
body which had considered the question
of a third-term that induces him to hreak
his silence on the subject ? Is it not abs
solutely plain on his own allowing that
it was the answer given by Pennsylvania
to that question which induced, and
which alone induced hint to "break his
silence?" A body of "dignity and au
thority" in 1874 offers him the Presiden
cy for the third time. President Grunt
listens in silence. A second body, of no
more "dignity and authority," in 1875
declares that no inan shall ever, with its
consent, be thrice proclaimed President.
Grant at once vehemently exclaims that
nothing but an "amendment to the Con
stitution" can prevent him from being
proclaimed President thrice or any num
ber of times !
Of course it was very stupid and un
necessary for Grant to expose his true
feeling on this subject in this clumsy
and maladroit way. But this is by no
means the first folly of the kind into
which he has been hurried by his imjm
tience of ad vice, even from those who
are as deeply interested almost as him
self in the results of his conduct. His
Pennsylvania letter is no worse a bluii*
derthan his mid-night message about
Arkansas. It is not so bad a blunder as
his feverish despatch sent through Bel
knap to endorse the tipsy brutalities
of Sheridan. It will no doubt worry and
disconcert tffose among his supporters
who know the temper of the country at
this time more than either. But, after
all, it really throws very little addition
al light, for very little was left to be
thrown upon the egotism, the wrong
headedness, the contempt of law and of
public opinion, and tbe insatiable greed
of its author.
Mr. George 0. Evans, whose fame was
so prominent before the public in con
nection with the collection of Pennsyl
vania's war claims against the general
government died on Thursday, at his
residence in West Philadelphia. Mr.
Evans was fifty-four years of age at the
time of his decease.

Revertly Johuaoii haa written a leltt i
to the N. V. Herald, tit which he make*
the following reference to Grant'* third
term letter:
" The idea of the J'tx-nlvul that the
"mufety of the country may demand the
"re-eleetton of a President for a tbirtl
"term, in my opinion, is an idle conceit,
"having uo other support but the must
'egregious vanity. (If this vanity lie
1 himself scents to {lartake, since ho says
"lie'would not accept a nomination il it
"'were tendered, unless it should come
" 'under such circumstance* as t> make
" 'it an imperative duty.* Who is to
"judge whether the duty to accept is au
"Imperative one? It can only IK- the
"nun himself."
The National Republican, Grant's
kitchen organ at Washington, goes on to
further deiiuc the President'* third-term
letter. It MV ;
"Those' individuals who are frcighten
"ed about the Viretnualaueea not !ikel>
"to arise,' whieh are alluded to in l*re*
"ideut t tram's anti-third term letter,
"should remember that the people will
"judge of the occasion which may pru
"voke those cireumstanees To the judg
"meat of the people the w hole question
"will be lawfully submitted, and the de
"cision will be worthy of them. The)'
"have never failed thus far to reach cor
"reet conclusions, and are yet to l>o trust
"ed Willi the management of their own
"alhurs, notwithstanding the doubts of
"the lfenioerutic or lshmaelite-dctci live
"press. The ancient* conceded that
'"the voice of the people is the voice of
" "God,* and it is not pi>-ssible for the de
signs of men toovcriurn the plans and.
"purposes of Omnipotence. Hence, it
"the people, the Republican masses of
"the United States, shall, in their cool
"and determined judgment, decide that
"General Grant is the must acceptable
"ami available candidate tor the next
"presidency, no measure of prejudice,
"hate, or bigoted hostility can raise a
'* 'third-term' chuuor tliat will intimidate
"or deter the popular w ill from pursuing
"its own prompting* to the end of the
"canvass. In such un event we have no
"fear that the public weal is to be iu any
"degree jeopardized."
It is very funny, says the N. V tri
bune to see the atteiujUs which the Ad
ministration journals make to twist the
President's Third Term letter into a tint
denial of a desire fbr a r nomination
The Philadelphia Press goes into rupture
over (Jen . Grant's devotion to the "on
written law of the Republic," when the
most superficial |crual of his letter
shows that he devote* more of its i<ac
in proving that the "unwritten law." is
of no nceonnt. Then the Press is nnhap
pv becauM? soim* of its
find the letter ambiguous. "The entire
Republican press of the North, it says,
"unities in giving expression to the voice
of the party, declaring its fealty to the j
unwritten law of the country, and yet:
with all this the political Bohemians,,
who are the parents ami sponsor* of the
Third Term scare-crow, are not satisfied
In fact this is not what they wanted
They do not want Gen. Grant to decline
a nomination, but to ask forone. W ell,
that is alxut what he has done.

interesting incident:
An incident of Breckenridgc's latter

to us a few ilnys since by tho Hon. )lol*
ter Clymer, at his charming home in
Reading. Mr. Clymer had just received
bis mail .'announcing the
death of General Brcckcnridgc a we en

the sad intelligence, the relatione of
these gentlemen in congress and else
where having lieen ever cordial and in
timate. He said: "The last',time 1 saw
General Breckinridge was a few years
since. We were sojourning, at the
Clarendon hotel, New York, a favorite
resort for prominent sue tubers of the
democratic party. I had .been reading
the morning papers, and us General B.
entered the breakfast room I remarked :
'Well, general, I see you was down yes
terday to sec Mr. Horace* Greedy at the
Tribune office.' His response was In
stant and full of emotion: 'Yes, sir,' said
he, '1 went down to see Mr. Groely, and
never have I made a visit that afforded
me more genuine pleasure, for never was
visitor more cordially received. After
the late unfortunate war lietwecn the
Northern and Southern sections of the
United States, you know I was compell

cheerless, friendless, homeless and with

I'oti.ville, June ? I'p to this morning (
it was an accepted and tiled fact that I
Were oil tile *Te ola general resumption t
throughout the Schuylkill regions, the j
men in a number of instances having tig- (
t.itied their intention of resuming work on |
t'lj operators' proposition, or JH7o basis, (
ami at east Franklin colliery, near Tre- 1
monl, a full force of miner* still eon tin u<
working without interruption there being i

At the West Muhanoy colliery, the \Y,*t |
Shenandoah and other collieries in the vi"
cinity of M dianoy city there wcro threat* 1
oi inlet fereiiv e and di-satisfaction made by ,
men out of employ merit, und determined I
if pus.lble t<> prolong the strike and delay '
a general resumption. Karly this morn- ]
ing we received a dispatch from liiare thai i
a large crowd of men from llaxloini anil i
the vicinity, whob ft Haxletou last night
about nine o clock, had arrived in Mahan
or city this morning, and were compelling
all logo Willi them 10 slop the working of
the mines that had resumed work since
Monday last
They aru about J.uOO strong now march

Fetter U- wman'scollerios. 8.-yUn's mi
ner, stopped woikuf their own accord on
account ola rrfuval of an advance in wa
ges Troops have been applied for.
P-'tlsvi'le, Jure 3.—The sheriff"* posse,

and one eitunw were wounded. The l'oiu-i

of the trouble.
I he Military Failed For.
Muhanoy C;ty, June 3 At three o'clock;
this afternoon Sheriff Werner telegraphed
llu I hu poase had been iir,-d upon, and l
i asked for military assistance. The Potts
j viile light infantry and the UowsnGuards,
' who had been waiting orders since twelve'
o'clock, were immediately ordered out,!
and left by special train for this place,
i your* reporter accompanying them On
j arriving here at five o'clock, wo found
that the utob generally had slunk away
!on the outakirla of the town. The citiaeiis
I weic very much excited, and all place* of
businc-t h*v o been closed since noon, the
' people apprehending trouble.
; The first disturbance occurred at King,
' Tyler A C-''s colliery below town, when
j the sheriff with a posse ordered the rioters
jto disperse utd go to their hi urea. One of
I their chiefs replied they could not drive
iLomuway. At the same a man was ob
set rod so mo distance away at a targe Ire
j lie fired upon the sheriff twice with a !*rg„
navy rev Ivor lie missed his mark and
1 ( the firing became general; tbe rioters
p-uriug a volley of fire on th small band
| of citiaen* w bo were *ul-numbered twenty
I to one the uuocr* having the advantage
j of t-eii'g above tbe cilicens on the hill side,
i Two hundred shot* were tired by both
' parties. The sheriff finding himself over
powered. retreated to the town and reor
ganised hi* force generally, the ciuxen*
| volunteering, and every firearm to be
fuund was brought into requisition. Me
also telegraphed for military aid. Of lbs
Wounded on the cilixvsi* side, llenry Lie
tenberger, a poliuraiea. i* n . u. a critical
condition Henry Lockran, also a police
• man, was wounded in the Kg, William
Encke was wounded in the brad, and an
' | other man, name unknown, was wounded
iin the shoulder. Eight of the raiders wcr<
wounded and carried away One of them
was killed. After the tiring cssmsl the
! raiders formed m line and marched
! through the town defiantly, headed by mi
i sin.
! Of the 2,1 M) men in line who went down
the valley l.tW) returned here, then fortu
' ing into small squads they went in differ
ent direction*. About Cut) of them came'
I from llajtletou and vicinity, lea* ing there
int nine o'clock last nigbl and arriving here
at four o'clock this morning, having
marched the greater part of the night,
compelling every man Iht-y met to accom
pany them. -The balance of tbe raiders
came from Shenandoah, Girardville, Ma
banoy Plain and place* in that vicinity.
Later —Ten I*. M.
All quiet here and at Shenandoah. The
sheriff went to the latter placo this even
ing. To-inorrow the miner* will agtm re
sume work at tbe collieries where tbey
were at work when interfered with by tbe
mob.
The Military are exported to remain
here and at Shenandoah severs! days, and .
longer if the citircns deem it necessary fur!
their safety, tbe raider* having publicly
made threats t* burn the town and compel
the men to stop work, and if they made
another attempt to resume work, having
signified their intention of returning soon
again.
Advices from Shenandoah, 10:30 p.m.,'
rlnlc that an attempt was roado to throw
the evening passenger train fron. the srack'
between that place and Muhanoy plain by
placing railroad sills on tbe track. A>
largo number of miners were parading the
streets at St. Clair this evening, in *y mpa
thy v. ith tbe miners here. A special train
ha* arrived hero and has been placed at
the disposition of the military, should it be
found necessary to movo troops to any
portion of the region during the night, and ■
guards have been placed on duty.

THE BLACK HILLS QUESTION.
Another Fruitless Interview With the
Sioux— Fearv of Trouble.
W aahington, June 3.—The Commission- I
er of Indian Affair* held a short council '
with tbe Indians at their hotel this lore-!
noon, at which he again presented to tboin
the reason* why they should sign the
agreement for accepting tho S'JS,OC3 for re- '
linqtiisbing their right to hunt in Nebras
ka. The Indians declined to sign the!
agreement liere at all, and said they would
lake it homu with them aud have it ei
piaiiied to their people. Ked Cloud urged ,
that the six Commissioners be appointed t
at once to go out with them, if possible. I
The Commissioners agreed that tho stakes !
'of the Nebraska line, the v
Indians so much, should be removed, and e
he said the President would take into con
sideration the appointment of the Com
missioner*. The Indians will probably!
leave to morrow night if they can gt l(
ready, a* they are anxious to return to
their pepplc, although tho agent.* want r
them to come to some understanding in
relation to the Black Hills beforo they go,
if possible. Tliy may have another inter
view with tho Commissioner to morrow. ,
(lovoriior Thayer, of Wyoming, and
Governor l'enningtoii, ot Dakota, who
came to Washington in connection with
the business sought to he transacted with
the Sioux Indians, have loft the city fur
their respective territories- Delegate /
Steele, of Wyoming, and Delegate Kid
der and General Beadle, of Dakota, will J
remain here for a few days, until the In- ()
dian* leave for their homes. Governor h
Fennington rays that, should these Indians c
'ail to-indicate n purpose of adjusting the )
questions at irsue between them and tbe n
Got eminent, the entire army could not fi
prevent restless adventurer* from going to n
the Black Hills country. Trouble also J
may misu* with the Indians. The Gover- I
nor is satisfied that ihe Indians have been w
improperly iufiuenccd by tbe white men b
who accompany them, and tome of whotu
have married with Indian woman. I
Mil MOODY'S PREACHING. '
Randolph & Co arn publishing, in an
Appendix to their "Narrative of Moody
and Sankey's labors in Scotland, Ireland '
mid England," full riqiorts of several of •
Mr Moody'* sermon*, from which wc
make some extract*.
limtaiitdiicou* Conversion.
|icfoio 1 lake up the text or the sermon,'
I waul to slate that 1 heard a man, at he!
was going out the other night, saying. "1
do not belles eln sudden conversion ido
not believe alial tlio preacher said to-i
night, that a man could come in here not
a Christian and go out one." Ido not be-!
Hero In any other eouvarslun. 1 do not be-j
I'evo thai there ever has been a conversion |
in the world that was not instantaneous, I
and I want you to mark this; not but what)
many cannot tell the day nor the hur|.
mhen they were converted- T will admit
that; tliey may not know the year. Bui i
Hi a l does not change the great tact that,
thnte was a time when the> Were horn in- I
to tho kingdom u f God There must have
been a minute when their name was writ I
ton in the Book of Life. There must have']
been a time when they were lost, arid a]'
tiioo when they were saved ; but we maT]'
nut be conscious when the rhange takaa'
place. I believe the conversion of some],
* tike lb* lung ol the sun, gradual; and)
of others like the tia*hiug of a meteor.
But both are instantaneous, really, in the
i ighlofOud There must be a lime when ,
| life begin* to nt*; when the suul begins to
live.
When 1 was in Manchester, 1 went in
to the gallery one Nunday night to haw
a talk Willi a tew inquirers, aud whil* i
was talking, a business man came in and
took bis seal on the oU'skirU of the audi
ence 1 think at first lie had cotue merely
to criticise, ami that he was a tittle scepti
cal At 'asi I saw be WHS in tears. 1
turned to him anil said, "My friend, what
is your ditficulty T" "Well," he said,
"Mr. Moody, the fact is I cannot talk" I 1
-aid, "Do you believe y.-u are a sinner .
tie said, "Yes, I know that." 1 said, '
"Clilrst it ablo to save you;" and L used
one illustration after another, but he did
not see il. At last I used the ark and laid,
" Was it Nouh'a feeling, that saved twin,
or was it the ark ? ' ' Mr. Moody," said '
he, "I s<-e it. ' lie got up and shook
hand* with me and said, "Good night, 1
have to go. 1 have to go away cm the
train to-night, but I was determined to be
saved before 1 went I see U now." 1
confess it teemed almost too sudden tor
ine, aud 1 was almost afiald it could not
live. A few day* after, he came and
touched me on the shoulder and said, "Do
you know tne?" 1 taid "I know your
I face, but do not remember where I navel
j seen you." He said, "Do n<4you remem-|
her the illustration of the ark*" I said
•"Yes '' lie said. "It hat been all right
'over since, {understand it now, Christ
is the ark ; lie saves me, ai d 1 mutt get
j inside him." When I went down to Man-
I cheater agaiu and talked to the young
friend* there, 1 found he was the brightest!
light among them.
This afternoon at the women's meeting. I
I told tbern that a woman came and sai-i
'to me in Manchester, that she was not in)
the ark, but that she wanted to go into it.
I said to her. ' The question it, why do not]
jyuudoit? 1 Lave boor- wonting to goto
America for the last four years, but i have
not gone. It i* one tiling to want and an
other thing to do. Whv do not you just
• step inio the ark 1,1 After talking a little
while she said, "Good evening, Mr.
Moody. ' 1 said, "Are you in the ark f"
She said, "Yo, I will trust Chri-l and
M make 11.m uty ark " Ido not see how
yu c-ti have a better illustration than
that. A ui*n must be in the ark or out of
it. If he die* outside the ark he muet per
i*h. If he diet in the ark, it i the ark
:thai -avoa him.
The 'ljring Soldier.
After one of our battles in Pittsburgh 1
was going upon the Tennessee river ailb
tSO men, some mortally wounded, and you
could hear tbr dying groans from one
end of the vessel to the uther. 1 said to j
the young man who was with me that w<-'
must not lot a man die on board without
telling htm ol Christ and hoavea ; and
thai when we gave them a cup ol cold wa
ter we woutd tell tbeffi of that water of
vbich il they drank they should never die
1 eamo to ope young man who was uoeoit.
•eious, and I went to the doctor, and I
-aid. * Doctor, will that young man recov
er?'' He *aid. "So, We have just ampu-i
tat ml one of hit legs ; he ha* K-st a deal of]
blood, and he cannot recover." "Do you j
think bo will come to?" "No, I think]
not " "I* there not anything I .-an do to!
bring him to before he die**" The doc-{
tor said 1 might give him a little brandy i
and water, hut he thought be would not,
come to. 1 g->t some brandy and water,
and 1 sat by his side, and every time I,
Save him a spoonful I tried to rout* th- j
ytng man, bqt 1 could not At last ll
•aid to the young ruan next to him, "D -t
you know this runr roan?" He said,i
| "Oh ! ves, *ir. tie belongs to our compa j
ny. lie ts rov companion, 1 said, "Can,
you tvll roe about hit family? Has he a'
father or a mother?' He said, "Hi* fx-,
iht-r is dead, but he has a widowed moth-'
<r lie is an only son. lie has two *{-•
■ ter. I thought how anxious that rnoth-t
i era ould be to g*i some rue-stage from her
boy, that he died in sight of hoaven. -up |
pose eternal death was gathering around
:,iui. 1 lelt 1 could not have bint die;
without having him send a message to hi
a idcwed mother. Every time 1 gave him
some brandy and water,' and 1 apeke ins
name and tried to rouse him, but I could
not for a long lime. At last, I spoke hi*
name. "William," and he opened bis eye*
and looked upon mo. The dim shades of
night were garnering. I asked him if he
knew where he was. He said. "Oh ! ye-
I am on my way home to mother." I ]
•aid, "But do you know that you are dy-j
ing and that you will not live to get homF '
He looked surprised, and said, "Am I dy- S
in* ? I said, "I thought 1 would tell you.
and ask you if you had any message forj
your mother."' Ho smiled and said, "O?;
yes, tell my mother that I died trusting in;
Christ-" liu did no; know who 1 was.' I'
♦as a perfect stranger to him. I said, "Is;
there anything else, William?' He said
"Tell my mother and sister* to be sure to]
meet me in heaven " And soon he was]
unconscious, and soon ho was gone. But.
tho sting of death was net there It was
like being at the very gales ol heaven
He was trusting in Christ, and when death (
came it was all Christ. We wrapped him.
•in a winding sheet, gnd dropped tiiiu into
li.o Tennessee river. There will ho ai
Slerious resurrection by-and-by ; he and |
