The Gold Democrnts are already indicating a determination to stand in lino with the Knpublinnns against freo silver even though the now tariff bill lias not been framed on Democratic linos. Amkrican butter under tho ro- cont efforts of Secretary Wilson to make a new market for it abroad, is finding a ready sale in London. A single firm in that city has just placed an order with Iowa State Ag ricultural Society for all its' butter, which amounts to 800 pounds daily. Tub wheat crop of the United States is in most sections good and tho prospects are for much better prices than those realized last year. This will make tho calamity cam. paign which the Democrats are pre paring to wage somewhat difficult, especially in Ohio, Indiana and Ken- lucky whose farmers will realize probably five millions more for their wheat tlwn they did last your. The fact that Republicans do not control the Senate ia not reducing activety of tho administration in shaping up its propositions tor a currency reform measure. A mes sage will probably bo sent to Con gress asking that the President bo givon authority to appoint a com mission to take up tho matter at onoo and reccommend a plan of aotion." WiULK the presence of sovoral months supply of bonded goods in tho warehouses of tho country will . largely reduce tho earnings of tho new tariff law for tho first few months of its existence, Chairman Dingley aud other tariff expert in Washington express the belief that the now law will- supply ample re venue after this stock of "autioia tory imports" is disposed of. SO FAR OVERLOOKED. Now that the followers of the late Mr. Bryan are examining their mag nificent forests in this county with tin eye to suitable timber figurative ly spcjiking, for their fall ticket, we wish to offer a disinterested plea for ft peculiarly fine stick which may porhaiis umong the many sjioriunjiiti offered, be overlooked. Last fall when the campaign was warmest, there was one sylvan retreat a philosophic gruvo toward which the footsteps of Democrats of all sizes, shapes and odors turned with eager ness. There they met a hospitable welcome, their spirits were cheered with other spirits, they listened to 'siu-hout pourings of tdoqiicnce as iilk'd their very souls with patiio- tism, and burnished their Intel lefts with the shafts of wit. It, was a Mecca for Democratic Mohammo- dins, and Dory was its prophet. Now that some of the smaller loaves are to be distributed, or, to put it move euphonicnlly, a hole is to be filled for which a peg is needed, why not take Dory? lie is excellent tim ber, stiaiiiditin grain sound in fibre, and to somewhat mix the metaphor (here are no flies on him, and lie is a Tory Gamaliel of Tike county Demo cratic doctrine, insinuate mouesty perhaps has so far prevented him from exemplifying a familiar ndago, which mentions something about "rushing in," and wo fear at the present rate of announcement in "the best paper going" (which name by the way was given it by a gentleman who fought, but did r.ot bleed, and fell outside the breast works,) that the ground floor will loon be jammed with less modest patriots called, and willing to serve a loving and suffering constituency (lot in Dory. If noliody else will call you the Phksh fools a little like Abou lien Adam about the matter, tt loves you for your truthful ex hibition, and clear exposition of Democratic principles when those who would now bear tho honors were fatigued with excitement, or refused to bear the burdens, or carry the jag. Vto urge you Dory to nublish vourself in "the best"' (foresaid aloiiK with the others. It will bo Ilobson's choice anj'way, and if tho party should bo so un grateful as to forget your past ser vices, your upheavals of eloquence, and fail to reward you as is befitting and proper they should, why you can join in the chorus with others about "mans inhumanity to man" tho myriads of liars etc., and the Phf.ss woongago will offer its warm est sympathies and condolences, and print your political obituary at tho rate of 10 cents per lino cash in advance, and do so most cheerfully. Now Dory have yfrft got tho sand to put your party again on a diet of gum chewing. MOIUS ABOUT THE GLEN. Wo are informed that the Town Council at some meeting passed a re solution to purchase the glen and bond the Borough for t-3,325, that being the limit to which they could go, to pay for it in part. Tho bal ance 11,175 to bo raised by subscrip tions or donations. This resolution was submitted to the Chief Burgess who declined to approve it and filed tho following reasons : To thk. Honorable Tub " Town Council " of Milfoku Borouuii : Gentlkmkn : I herewith return with my objections thereto, your re solution, passed July 7, 1897 : Objection First. Tho Preamble is not clear as to whether there is to be a "consideration" on tho part of the Borough for the portion lying in Dingman township. Objection Second. The price stipulated (viz. 12,325) for the por tion lying in tho Borough, is greatly in excess of its value. Objection Third. It is not clear to mo whethor tho Borough authori ties have the "legal" right to pos sess or control property outside of the Corporate limits. Wo suggest now that a Village Improvement Society be organized which shall take such steps toward tho purchase of tho glen as may be proper, and if it can ho secured at a reasonable figure, there is little doubt but that with the subscrip tions which might bo obtained, and tho proceeds of fairs and other pos sible meth(xls of raising money it could soon be paid for. N Tho society would be enabled to make improvements and do tho nec essary work without each year bur dening the tax-payers. The town, and not the Town Council, should own tho glen.

There is no book in the world which has been so much attacked as the Bible. The particular phases of the conflict vary. Every century lias produced men who in the most un scrupulous manner attacked this book, which was written under the guidance of an omuicicnt and eter nal Godwith infinite perfections. .Some have regarded the Old Testa ment as nothing more than a literary product of the tie wish nation. Others declared it. to be a collection of myths, while otlieis have (lis sooted the Bible as an auatonrist a body. Tho materialist and unbe lieving scientist because they have found out. a few tilings whieli God has revealed to us in nature nave no longer any room in their imaginary world for a personal and living G oil, they have found certain fixed la vs in nature, hut that a law cannot ex ecuto itself does not enter 'their! minds. They do not see th. supreme power by which these laws are put in operation, because the carnal mind cannot understand the things which beloug to the kingdom of Hod. lint there is another class of men much larger than either of those mentioned. It is that largo class of m m and women who are led astray by men who pretend to bo teachers of the word of God, but. who bring Sabbath after Sabbath their own human , (i. e.) false ideas concern ing the plan of salvation and tho kingdom of God into the pulpit and instead of giving their congrega tions wholesome and spiritual food they feed them on husks and poison their hearts and minds like a cer tain Brooklyn minister does, or like an Ingersol ridiculing the tilings pertaining to the kingdom of God. But it is not my object, to enter into a controversy with, these men, but I simply want to try to give you a few proofs for tho historicity of the narratives recorded in the Old Testament. First of all, let ns consider the so called universal traditions (i. e.) the traditions which exist among the different nations concerning certain events which we find recorded in the Old Testament, (Bible.) There was never a time in which the expectations of a coming deliv erer were so universal as the time when Christ, came into tho world. The Jews were prepared for such an evont by the teachings of their prophets, covering a period of over 1,500 years, yea at the very cradle of the human race in tho so-called Protovangelium tho promise of a coming deliverer was given. But how is it that we find tho siuno be lief among the other nations ? The Egyptians whoso literature dates back to a time before Abraham had tho same belief, yea their deliverer according to a latter legand was born by a virgin miraculously. Tho' originally monotheists (i. e.) wor shippers of one supreme God, they soon became Pantheists and tho re ligion took an esoteric form. The Arians, our ancestors, had the same belief. When the Spaniards discovered America they wore gladly welcomed by the Indians because of tho tradition which they had, that their good God, their deliverer, who was ft white-faced man, would come from the East and bring peace and eternal happiness with him. Even among the Greeks and Ro mans long before the coming of Christ, tho hopes of tho people were based upon tho coming of a Divine deliverer. The account of the flood was not only the property' of the Jewish na tion, but tho Eskimo living in tho farthest North and the African liv ing near the eqnator knew as much about this event as did tho little Jew ish boy in the times of David and Christ, or the youngest child in a ( 'hriutian household. The creation of man, differing very little from the Biblical account is another of the many traditions common to the whole human race. But what doe.-, tho existence of these traditions among tho different nations teach us ? It teaches us tho unity of the tho human race, it confirms the ac count of the origin of the human race as the Bible presents it . "And has made of one blood all nations of the earth." Acts XVII : 25. But most of all has archeology es tablished tho truthfulness of the re cords of the Holy Scripture. " Since Cbampollion gave us the key to de cipher the old Egyptian hierogly phics, and Grotefend prepared the way" for these illustrious men, who by their immense knowledge are en abled to give us correct translations of the original records of Assyrian and Babylonian history, since Itr. Schliemau lifted the veil from an cient Greece of winch Homer sang" and proved that there .existed such a pi are as Troy and that tho Greeks made an expeditvm to the shores of Asia Minor 'id many of the so called legend, proved t bo true his torical rowrds, since that time the attention of the Bible student Has been called to these new discoveries. The early narratives of the Bible ' were considered to be of a similar mythical oluuaeUir. There .were no such men as the Patriarchs or the sons of Jacob, they were considered by some to have been stars and planets worshipped by tht people. "The story of Joseph was a beauti ful imaginary tale, valuableonly for the moral lesson it contains." Everything preceding the time of David was discredited aud even his torical account of events after the Babylonian exile wero regarded at least as doubtful. This sceptical at titude toward ancient history arose in the first ptace from unlxdief in the word of I rod, and secondly from ignorance, for tho knowledge which we possessed of these things 'from contemporaneous history was, even 23 years ago, very meagre. A great controversy has been go in;; on whether tho Patriarchs knew how to write. It was emphatically denied by distinguished Biblical scholars, but a recent discovery fives us an answer to this question : "In the year 18S7 the Tel Amarna tablets were discovered in the ruins of the Palace of Amenophis IV King of Egypt. This palace is about lso miles by river south of Cairo. The tablets are of brick dating about 14S0 B. C. inscribed in Aramaic, re sembling Assyrian. The inscrip tions consist of a large mass of poli tical correspondence and wercVrit ten by Phaciicians. Amorites and Phillistines to Amenophis III. Among other events they record the conquest of tho country between Mount Heir on the east, Ajalon, Lschish Gezer on tho west, and Sliiloh and Rimmon on the north, hy the Israelites. They also con tain the name of one of the kings killed by Joshua, namely Japhia as we read in Joshua, X : '6, and Jabin, King of lf izor, whom Joshtu at tacked is aiso mentioned. Joshua XI :1. The Hebrews are called in these letters Ahirt and said to have e-mie from rite desevt and Mr-. Sair. The date of tilt-so letters corres ponds with the date which is to be derived from the Bible, I Kg. VII: 1. for the Hebrew invasion of Canaan. ' ' These Tel Amarna tablets reveal to us two facts. First, tho art of writ ing was known in Palestine at the tiiue of the conquest and consequ ently before that time. It secondly coniirms trie record the Bible gives in regard to the conquest and also that the kings mentioned are per sons known in profane history. Auol-her very interesting fact is revealed to us by an inscribed stone translated by Dr. Hommel, of Mini nich, it has reference to the birth place of the Hebrew race." Tho in scription states that tho third of the sons of Shorn were 'Arpaksad' from whom sprang the Hebrew. In tho second half of this name even Jos epiius the Jewish historian recog nizes the word which the Hebrews render 'Kasdinf (i. e.) Chaldees, Dr. Hommel believes the name ' Arpalc sad,' the vowelsof which are utterly untrustworthy, should be divided so as to show its derivation, first "Ur" second "Pi" which is an Egyptian article, third, "Kasd" which is the singular of " K isdini " then the word would moan "Ur" of the Kasd or "Chaldees." This word Ur-pa-kasdas it should be vo welled is the Egyptian form of " Ur-kasdini" our "Ur of the Chaldees. llio Bible tells us that Abraham came from that place and here a stone, in scribed thousands of years ago cor roborates the Biblical statement. It. has been said by thoso who op pose the Bible that the Israelites hud never bo;m in Epyfc. It is in deed astonishing what a, large num ber of proofs we possess to-day in support of the Bible narrative, the Pharoah of tho Exodus as well as the Pharoah under whose reign Joseph came to Egypt are known. There are not only monuments cut deep into tho rocks which run along the Nilo but also ft t.oinb has b.v.m discovered at Sakkara near Memphis on tho walls of which is an inscrip tion stating about the following : "Eitsuph" which is the hieroglyph ic name for Joseph, had been intro duced into the land and become a Saviour of his country, was made by Pharoah, tho distributor and guard ian of tho granaries of the land. This Pharoah 's namo was "Apoplus or Pheops." These few examples may suffice for our purpose, for the material is so great that we could bring for al most every one of theso disputed points one of these incorruptible witnesses. From those resurrected tablets voices speak to us telling us that our faith is not founded on myths and legends, a some want to make ns believe. Man being un willing to doclare the glory of (.rod the earth opened her mouth and the stones of tho hold testified and de clared the glory of God. -Another narrative, much sneered at, is the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, some geologists admit that volcanic eruption cansetl the calamity; But let us hoar what Dr. B'.ankenberg, an oaiiiiout geo logist of tho University of Erlanger Germany, has to say on this ques tion. "I quote from the Independ ent:" The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah took place, in the allu vial or geological age. South of the Peninsula Sisan there must, in an cient times, ha ve been an exceeding ly fruitful valley, in which the cities Sodom and Gomorrah and others must have been situated, and this place has sunk below tho water level probably through tremendous earth quakes, but not through volcanic eruptions. While the process of sinking was going on, either through friction or through lightning ihe intlamma'nie masses t hat wero press ing upward especially tho asphalt and petroleum matters, were ignited so. that an imfnense sea of . flames covered the entire region, and this is described thus : "The smoke of the land went up like the smoke of a furnace.- Gen. XIX : 2." Bftt the best and strong ost testi mony in regard tit ha historicity of the records- of the Old Testam out -which appeals most forcibly to the Cnristian is that of Christ Hinuelf. "Search tho Scriptures, continuing He says, these are they which be tr witness of mo. John V : 3'.t." WU.it were the Scriptures of the. Jews at the tuno of ChristV The Old Testa ment iibexactly the same form in wo possess it to-day. -But Christ does not ouly refer to the Scriptures in this geueral way, but He mentions even tho thren great divisions in which the Old Testament was div'd od Luke XXIV : ii: The Liw of Muses, the Prophets and the Psalms. But not that alone He frequently re fers to individual prophets and events, for instance to Jonah in Mafhew XII : 4(1 ; to Sodom and Go mm rah in Mat hew X : 15 ; to Ijot in Luke XVII : 2'.l, etc. These install cos could be multiplied. Tho personality of Jesus Christ has never been doubted, what some infidels may have thought as to His claim, that He be the "Son of G'hl," we will not touch upon, bur. let us remember that the carnal mind can not understand spiritual and divine things. But. we linvo the testimony of men who were not Christians, but who expressed their admiration as to the parity of Christ's moral character in the highest terms in which man is able to express him self. For the Christian Jesus Christ is the son of (hid the Father, Hi is of -the same numerical substance. Ho is our only comfort in life and death, for "in Him we live and move and have our being." To the Christian it makes very lit tle difference whether those six days mentioned in Gen. I were six days of 2 1 hours ciich or periods of indetl nate length. But he rests as as suredly in the words of Christ in the testimony which He has given in regard to the Holy Seriptives iu that they are not the words of man's wisdom but the words of the Al mighty, Living Eternal and Personal (tod. In conclusion let me say a few words as to the Bible itself . Lyman Abbott in one of his lectures made the following remark "God does not dwell in a book, tint rather in the hearts of His children, and tho more human the Bible is, the mere divine it is. " A church elder and ex-Judge asks : "Which shall we believe Dr. .Abbott or the Prophet Jeremiah," who says "Tints says the Lord cursed be the m m that t: inteth in man and maketh Ids arm flesh and whose heart do pirtcth from the Lord. - - - the heart is deceitful above all things and desoeratelv wicked, who can know nr'' The scriptures can defend them selves for they nro tho words of the Almighty and Jesus Christ is a cre ditable witness, ns ore also the Apostles and prophets, holy men of old spake as they wero moved by the Holy Spirit. God's word is its own attestation. There is no need to fear for the Bible, it lias stood tho assaults of almost 2000 years, until in these last days unintelligent na ture haa opened her month to boar witness and testify in behalf of the historical records given in the word of God. "He which testifieth these things saith, Yea, 1 come quickly, Amen : Come, Ijord Josus." Rev. XXII : 20. FOR RENT A furnished house on Harford street.
