\ "ATT AWFUL ;GOOD SERMON. ”
That was the remark of Mrs. Nipperkins, as
she «?ame out of Mii. Nipperkins as
very devout, but she fa in no. peril of insanity
• from excess or over Action of brain. She is
easily eniteßas to bejf intellectual and spiritual
fodder, not requiring much in quantity, arid
being perfectly indifferent as to quality. Mrs.
Nipperkinsls remark'; about , the sermon was
just, though she did pot.kpow it The SermOn
■was “awful good.” sltitas good in that it was
not positively wickeds; it "’was not profane, at
least in intent and [Rith malice aforethought,
although there were; (some passages in whidh
the Infinite and his character and purposes
were handled with; p. rough familiarity arid
grotsnesa nearly as ■ (locking to sensitive Chris
tians ris an oath in,.*Sless sacred place. Bat
the sermon as a frjiole was unquestionably
good, for the preached several times- declared,
patronizingly, that he|had taken the Lord’s side
as against the devil, and that.in spite of all this
world-’s Seductions,hejhad decided to deny him
self some creature comforts here for the sake of
escaping - infinite calamities hereafter. It was
good, for the preacher distinctly declared that
goodness is a very- exgfeilent thing, and though
it cannot help any '{dan towards salvation,
which is a matter .qultp aside and' disconnected
from personal character and actual ■ life, yet it
is creditable to reljjgion that its professors
should do good .things—at least respectable
things—and- he felt that he might in
nocently approve anj commend the various
human virtues, With -'die distinct understanding
'always that, they have no value in and-ot them
selves. Yes,'the sermon was good, for it em
' braced many excelled words and phrases, some
’ from Scripture and ofihers from standard works
of theology, and the soundest scheme of doctrine
: was closely ihterwofen into all its parts, so
that no hearer could »o at a loss exactly where
to locate tbe preaoheif among the various theb
-1 logical schools. ;
| * * The sermop-was awful, too, in its en
tire separation from sail human feelings arid
sympathies, ft was ks unreal and artificial as
a wax baby. 1 It more connection with
. human. life as it is, than a problem in conic
sections. The Fresher evidently saw this,
end so he sent almog; the whble'rabe to their
terrible'doom with ai [much coolness and sang
fro id as Jf ifeey'yverei July so many /pilch pi rie
kbots to Veep tla .everlasting burning.—
Thentke contempt »r men, the easy : famil
iarity with the Supreme Being, and the otter
want of any,' the least, appearance of a tender
and sympathizing huSman heart, in the whole
performance, combined to make the expression
‘f awful” -08 most fitting description of the
. sermon. Heaven ssfre us from “ awful good
eermon.s.” They petrify men into stones, arid
freeze them into icebergs. They reverse the
common phrase, and;; :

HINTS TO TO t JNG &ENTLBMEH. :
Don’t give up yoniiseatin the cars, when yon
are tired out with yfir days work, to I a pert
young miss who has''Seen amusing herself with
. « little shopping—si a won’t even thank you
you for it; and if alnan is going to sacrifice
, his comfort, be'b aa right to;expect
at least a little (gratitude. Ho use being polite
to some ladies. 1 Thete’s an old proverb about
casting pearls beforef-what’s their names ? J,
Don’t submit to h^crowded off the pavement
into a muddy gutter-by two advancing balloons
of silk and. whalebone. Haven’t your newly
blacked boots,as gooc ■ a claim to respect as their
skirts? "Look before you, and stand
up foryour rights 1 1| ;e a man—the ladies can
contract themselves t ; ; little, if there’s no help
for it. k ■ • :
• Don’t talk literature and the fine arts to the
pretty girls of your acquaintance until you are
sure they know- the difference betweqn Thomp
son’s Seasons and Thompson’s Arithmetic. —
And if .they look par ticularly sentimenta', then
you may know theyi pn’t understand whatyuu
are talking about ’ , ,
Don’t ask a nice lyttle girl about hei dolls
'unless yon'are very,; certain that she hasnft
“come out/? and beep engaged in two or three
flirtations already, j > ,
Don’t say complimentary things to a young
lady at a party without first making sure tbit
her “ intended" is bet sitting behind you ' the
whole time, • 3 j >
Don’t accept a .lady’s invitation to go shop
ping with her, ;unl<Bs you have previously
measured the length’ Jif your- purse. |
Don’t stay later t( an eleven o’clock wbejn
you spend the evenin'; with a pretty frlend

Don’t believe any woman to -be an angel.—
'lf yon feel any symptoms of- that disease, tnkjo

a malady as the small pox, and it is your busi
ness tbget over it 4s i-quickly as possible, i Ah

Don’t make up you' mind about any

And, aU,<Jon’t imagine that you must keep

(ictitfcoicn : The. Salamander Fire-Proof Safe of
your manufacture, purchased by. us from your Agent,
Ferris A Garrett,[of Our city, some nine .months ago,
wa, t severely tried by burglars last Saturday night,
and although: theyiad a sledge hammer, cold chisels,
drill, and gunpowder, they did not succeed |n opening
the Safe. The lock being one of Hall's Patent Pow
der-proof,” they could not get the powder into it, but
drilled a hole in the lower panel and forced in a large
charge, which was Ignited, and although the door. In
side and out, showed the explosion not to have been a
small one, it was npt forced open. We suppose they
were the greater part of the night at work on fc We
arp much gratified at the result of the attempt to enter
it, and if the above facts are of any service, you are
at liberty to use them. Yours, truly,

GREAT FIREI—ANOTHER TRIUMPH.
KspxriLLE, l3tb, 1869.—Messxi.
Evans & Watson, Philadelphia:
Gentlemen'? It affords me great pleasure to say to
you that the Salamander Safe, which I purchased of
you. in February; 1858, proved to be what you recom
mended it—a sure j protection from fire. My store*
boose together wilh.ecveral others, was bnraetk ta the
ground in March The Safe fell through into the
cellar, and was exposed, to intense heat for six or
eight hours t and when it was taken from the ruins and
opened, all its contents were found to be in a perfect
state, the books and popors not being injured in the
least. I can cheerfully recommend your Safes to the
community, believing ns I do, that they are ns'neor
fire-proof as it is possible for any Safe to be made.
