In every political .Ight since that time you have been either an avowed partlzan of thfl Roaewater cause, or under hi advice, or through fear of him, you have slunk away from your district And you are playing a cowards part In the present campaign. You have up to the pres ent time wholly neglected to Inform the public through the American of your position. Instead of doing so you have undertaken to appease the wrath of Republicans by sending for them and using the art of a trimmer. Hut the Republicans are after you, When they tell you that you are a Roaewater tool you defend yourself by telling them that Roaewater Is supporting you because you are a "popular man," and because he thinks you will he elected. This argument Is fraught with dan ger, because It Is offensive to "Ne braska greatest man," who denies that there la any popular man In the state but himself, and because It Is calculated to confirm the opinion now frequently eipresaed that you consider youraelf Indispensable to the people of this district.

Have you assured Rose water that In congress you can do as much to get him a place In tbe cabinet as Webster could do In tbe senate?

To the old connonlal church, ac cording to the plainest and most dl rect prophecies, and fulfillment, Christ came In the flesh made his first ad vent. Through hardness of heart and blindnens of mind the Jewish church rejected him. And she still refuses to believe that Jean was, or Is, the true Messiah, Kor him they tll look and wait. A truly will Christ come the second time, and as surely aa did the Jew reject hi first coming, o the (.entile church has, and doe still re ject hi eeond appearance, The Jew hav missed the thing they look for. Ho have the Oennles, A plain, too, a were the old Scripture prophesies con cerning the first advent of Christ, o, of Christ' second coming. Every thing concerning It, In both the old and new Testaments, are clear and ex plicit; yet through blindness of mind the truth la unpercelved, and tha Christian world Is vainly Indulging In the belief that the thing that ha al ready taken place is still to be. On the occasion of Christ' showing him self to bis disciples the third time, after his resurrection, he addressed I'der In thee words, "Verily, verily, 1 say unto thee: When thou wast young thou glrdest thyself and walk est whither thou wouldeat, but when thou art old thou halt stretch forth thy hand and another glial) carry thou whither tbou wouldest not" Thli he spake, dignifying by what death he should glorify Ood. And when he had spoken thla he said unto him: "Follow me."

That great and notable day, ns above described, un iicHtioiiahly could not be a remote day, If as l'eter represented. The oc casion of the then outpouring of the Holy Spirit was the last day or time, anil was the day that Joel propheHled of.-Hee Jisd 2:32. In the first verso this day Is called "the day of the Utrd." In the eleventh as "the day of the Iord, great and very terrible." In the thirty first, as "the great and the terrible day of the Iord." And In the twenty-eighth verse Is that whlth fixes the time and renders the question undebatable. The words are: "And It shall come to pass afterwards that I will pour out my spirit upon flesh, etc. When l'eter said this is that which wa spoken by the prophet Joel. Consistently he must mcnn that that occasion was the open ing, the beginning of a continued out pouring of, the spirit until all flesh should experience the IVntaeostnl blcesing.
