These abuses, to gether with the mistaken notion, that legal jurisdiction . was superior to-Lynch law in the mines some of which are one hundred miles from the nearest prison '(and almost any man can break through a, prison made of inch boards) have contributed, largely to the num ber of crimes that bavo been committed.

DEPARTED BLESSINGS. -• It is often said, and :with groat truth, that we raVelrperoeive tho.value of our blessings till they,are taken from us. Theprecimisness of health is seldom realized till disease and languor invade our frame. ' The common com forts :of life are scarcely thoughy of with grateful -feelings until we . nro' denied them. Then wo sigh fur their return, and enjoy their recovery with a relish unknown before. Above all, never do we appreciate friends and relatives as when they, have taken leave of us "and gone to the land of spirits. We have scen•the family bereaved Of - a mother, or a sister, or wife. -The funeral rites are per formed and the body is in its resting place be neath the Sod. Day after day passes but the gloom is not dispersed. The grief lingers there ami hanmarentlthe vz/cent_chair.___We miss her nt the morning meal—lWOMiss her nt the' evening tire-side. - Every object -reminds us of her. Here is the book she cherished; there the - Rower she watched and watered. The tones of her voice—the beam of her eye, the sunshine of her countenance, aro ever be fdre us. Wesigh, but she answers not. We, long for one little word from her lips, but it is unbroken. We think of:her.ways, her Vir tues, of everything but her failings, and we wonder that we loved her no more while liv ing; we lament, that we ever grieved and _wounded one so gentle and so good.' . _ These thou'ghta should lead usto prize those who love us, While - they aro yet with us, for be assured,•we Bina mourn bitterly over our neglect, our harshness, outwrong doing, where the grave has ebbed over them. - WHY UORAD UP FOR, OTHERS Stan tty in mlntill4nine-tenths of us iireTrom the-very natic.atut. necessities of nil,' world, to gain our nveiihotid by'tho oweatef our brow.

Now it is well known that, in' ihcic latter days, there have crept into our church some very unseemly and scandalous , praqices, such as one half . the congregation sitting, while the others rise in time i;Of prayer,; and many of those who sit and those Who.riso, staring about as though they were endeavoring to get beyond the journey of .the fool's eyes.
