(Continued from 1st paire.) laughed at and ridiculed, but to day it commands the admiration of the religious world aud to it as the great universal religious plat form the sons of God are hasten ing with commendable, speed. Those grand old heroes did not live to see what we seo but their reward will be glorious ! The principles that O'Kelly aud Jones and Stone, held in 1794 are still held by the Christian Church to day. They are as follows : Cardinal I'kincii'i.ks. 1. The Lord Jesus Christ is the only head of ttie Church. 2. The name Christians to the exclusion of all sectarian uames. 3. The Bible, our only creed and a sufficient rule of faith aud practice. 4. Christian character the only tost of church membership and fellow ship. 5. Tho !ight of private judgment and the liberty of ton science (uudor the illuminatiou of tho Holy spirit) the privilege aud duty of all. Out of these cardinal principles grow their cardinal im iid'osks : 1. The spread of the gospel to the ends of the earth. Matt. '2H; is I'd. Mark lfi: Hi. The reformation of man and tho salvation of his soul. lsa. -: S; Col. a: 11; Matt. 1: '21. ii. The union of all the followers of Jesus Christ, the world over St. John 17: L'l; Eph. Ji: III. The Christaiu denomination published thetirst religious news paper in tho world "The Herald of (iospel Liberty" at Dayton, Ohio. Kev. J. J. Summorbell, D. 1)., is editor now. Tho tirst copy was published Thursday morniug September 1, lw. Jiev. Elias Smith was the first editor. (The writer of this article has among his paiors a copy dated Septem ber 1, lin) The Christians have in the Uni ted States, ten colleges to educate men aud women for tho great work before then. The Christain church ordained the tirst woman preacher. And to-day the Chris tian church has 140,01X1 iu her fold. Besides a grand work in the Sunday school. So the Chris tian church moves on with no leader but Christ, uo creed but the Bible. Let the reader bear in mind that ho is not reading a history of the Christian church. But only a syuopsis of its origin. It would take a small volume to write its origin in full; but the writer gives this synopsis tosatis fy those who have been inquiring about its origin. The nxt session of the Ameri can Christian Convention, will meet iu Norfolk, Va., Oct., 7th to the l".lli l'JDl. About six hun dred preachers aud delegates will be in attendance. This conven tion meets every four years aud is tho highest body of tho Christ iau church. Rev. J. P. Barrett D. 1)., is pastor of tho Norfork, church. Foley's Kidney Cure if taken iu time all'ords security from all kid ney and bladder diseases. All dealers. Thoughts of Others to Make You Think. Selected by O. S. Hki.OICN, "You can never build up n church by talking it down." THINK. "Finding fault with your neigh bor is a wretc hed salve for a sore conscience. " THINK. "At all times we should distin guish between man's thoughts of Cod, and Cod's thoughts of him self." THINK. "There is nothing more majes tic and solemn than the eternity of law. Human enactments are for a term of four years, but the obligations of the laws of Cod will last while he is on tho throne of the universe. Pardon does not re peal law nor suspend it nor nega tive it. There is no such thing as pardon in his government; when his law is violated, suffering must ho endured, either by the original offender or by an adequate substi tute." "Men aud women are willing to die for the Lord, but somehow they're not ready to live for Him. You cau get folks euough to risk everything for the Ird undo extraordinary circumstances i who cau't make up their minds to live for Him under circumstauces that is only ordinary." I THINK. ! "No religion is worth haviug un- j less a man sticks to it in a horse trade, or when he's painting a barn; and if a professor sands his sugar and waters his milk, he's goiugtohavea tough time when certain unfortunate questions are asked by the Lord." j think. j "Opinions are not worth much unless they kindle opposition, aud men who. oe things from circum ference to center, aud tell their thoughts with perfect frankness are likely to be misunderstood." THINK. "Nobody knows or cau know how much a word of good cheer is worth to the man who occupies the pulpit. He is always distrust ful of himself, and seldom sees whether the (iosp 1 shots he is tiring hit the mark or not." THINK. "Nothing so wrenches a minis ter's emotions as to see the con gregation, which has perhaps list ened respectfully to his words, file out of church with the appar ent intention of avoiding the preacher because they don't want to hurt his feellings by express ing their real opinions. Its effect on the clerical mind is like that of an extinguisher on a candle. THINK. "If the people would take some pains to recognize the work of their pastor, would linger long enough to take him by tho hand in friendly greeting, they would thereby insure more effective ser mons; for, after all, the preacher must not only minister to his con gregation, but be ministered to by them." THINK. "One is overcome with astonish ment at the presumption of this creature man here to day, and gone to morrow, who has not had time for a proper examination of tho earth he lives on, nor the be ings around him; who knows next to nothing of tho myriads of other worlds and the universe iu gener al, to say nothing of heaven and hell; yet boldly, and in the name of Science, makes such state ments as : Matter is eternal; The forces of nature are eternal; Ob servation teaches from all time; Such a thing us a miracle has nev er taken place; It is an otter im possibility that tho laws of nature should ever vary; Never has there been a revelation of tho Supreme Being." THINK. "It is as if ephomerea, many kinds of which live ouly an hour or two, were to assemble on the broad leaf of a water-lily to listen , with attention and admiration to au orator who proves to their sat- i isfaction that there never was a ' time when this immense expanse of water their xud was dry; nor when the vegetation sur rounding them was lifeless and withered. Still loss had this pres ent dwelling-place of theirs ever boon covered by a hard, transpa rent mass, as a superstition de clared, explaining tho fact by cub ing it solid water." A Doctor's Bad Plight. - "Two years ago, as a result of a severe cold, I lost my voice," writes Dr. M. L. Scarbrough, of Hebron, Ohio, "then began au ob stinate cough. Every remedy known to me as a practicing phy sician for 8r years, failed, and I daily grew worse. Being urged to try Br.

His ex cesses spread anguish and shame i h rough a large aud most respect i bio circle. The earnest and kind i emonstrances of friends, hovvev !!, at leugth led him to desist; aud, feeling that for him .to drink was to die, he came" to a solemn resolution that he would abstain entirely for the rest of his days. Not long after lie was invited to iine, with other young persons, at the house of a friend. , Friend, lid I say? pardon me; h could hardly be a friend who would de liberately place on the table be fore one lately so lost, but now so marvelously redeemed, the treach erous instrument of his downfall. But so it was. The wine was iu their feast. He withstood the fascination, however, until a young lady, whom ho desired to please, challenged him to drink, lie re fused. With banter and ridicule she soon cheated him out of all his noble purposes, aud her chal lenge was accepted. He no soon er drank than ho felt that the de mou was still alive, aud that from temporary sleep ho was now awaking with tenfold streugth. "Now," said he to a friend who sat next to him, "now I have tas ted again, and I drink till I die." The awful pledge was kept. Not ten days had passed before that ill fated youth fell under the hor rors of delirium tremens, and was borne to a grave of shame and dark despair. Who would envy the emotion with which that young lady, if not wholly dead to duty and to piety, retracted her part in a scene of gayety which smiled only to betray? The Great Dismal Swamp.
