Dcarlv beloved, you will not listen to
any Scripture in other pulpiUf thin morn
ing that carries more truth to the square
inch than this. And the ciecial atten
tion of the young men in the congrega
tion is called to the text.
Tho reason why, or at least one reason
why, the Psalmist, after lie had been
young, and was old. could not remem
ber ever to have cen the righteous for
saken or hi seed begging bread, was
because a lazv man can t be very right
'ohs. Not righteous enough to hurt
him. The spectacle of a lazy Christian
would be as great a rarity as a fat skel
eton. If your Bible tcacho3 you anything it
teaches you that there is no room in
this hive for a drone. "The hand of the
diligent shall bear rule; but the slothful
Hhall bo under tribute." "The way
of the slothful man is as a hedge of
thorns; but the way of the righteous is
made nlain.1' "Tho desire ot the sloth
ful killclh him, for his hands refuse to
labor' " The sluggard will not plow
by reason of thecolu, therefore fihalljie
leg in harvest and have nothing."
"Tho houl of tho sluggard dosireth. and
hath nothing; but the soul of the dili
gent hhall be made fat." "Not slothful
in business; fervent in spirit serving
Lord." "An id!c soul shall suiler ii
the
imi-
ger." A lazy Christian, brethren, would
lind but cold comfort if be thou'.d exert
himself to read Ids liible.
The diligent soul always possessed
the land. Not the man or woman who
steps into a dead man's shoes and a fort
une, but the'boy and girl who learn in
their teens what a dollar is worth,
aaiLimw to gain and usa a iower that
money cannot buy, arc the peopl ; who
move the world. Ciflbrd, the Itrst edi
tor of tho Quarterly llcvicw was only a
common sailor: lien. Johnson was a
bricklayer; John Bunyan was a tinker;
Hugh Millor was a quarryinan; Sliakes-
Iiearo's father was so illiterate he didn't
;now how to spell his son's name;
neither did his son, and no more do
you, for that matter; Do Koe, tho au
thor of Kobin.son Crusoe, was almost
wholly self-taught; Edgar A. Toe was
tho son of strolling players; Hen.
Franklin, tho printer, was the son of a
tallow chandler; Sir Richard Arkwright,
inventor of tho cotton spinning ma
chine, was a barber; Tom Moure w:is
the son of a grocer; Gerald Masse' be
gan life as an erraad boy; and Caxton.
who set up tho first printing prcss in
England, was a weaver's apprentice;
John Adams was Iho son of a farmer;
President Lincoln was a farm hand and
Hat boatman; Andrew Johnson was a
fotilor; Grant was a tanner; Garfield
was a canal boy none of these men
were renowned for their great wealth.
Durban, but thev were dilnrent in thoir
business, and they stood before Kings;
a loner, lonir wa s bcloro most Kings
There is no particular merit in being a
King. .Any .man who happens to be
born at the right time into tho right
family, can't help being a King. Hut
all the kingcraft in the world couldn't
make a Do Foe. a HughIiller, a Burns,
or a Bunvan. if the boy didn't make
himself. .
Dearly beloved, it may Lo that this
.congregation is not made up exclusive
' ly oi future Presidents, ami of peo, le
whose names shall bo written the fore
most of a 1 in their time. But there is
little doubt that it is largely made up of
, men and women who arc not doing all
the world has a right to expect of them.
Ask yourselves how many of you de
. serve to stand before Kings for j'our
diligence? Possibly, my j'oiing brother
" may not wish to tand before Kings.
Verj' well, then ho doesn't Jiave "to.
But-if he. does, there is only one way for
him lo get there; he must be diligent in
business, whatever his business is; con
stantly active; persistent and devoted in
bis application. lie wants to keep his
elbows, not his feet, on his desk. lie
must work harder in the morning of his
life, just when ho wants to play, than
he will in the afternoon.
It won't be at all easy for you. dearly
beloved, to bo "diligent in business."
A man is often very busy who isn't at
all diligent in business. The most act
ive man I ever saw was a man who did
loss than you would supposo ten men
could do. Ho lived on tho street. He
talked politics ten hours a day. Ho .was
always going to run for some office, but
noboely ever nominated him. He would
drasr you away from your desk or book,
to talk to you'by the hour about some
thing you didn't care a cent for; he
knew a little about every living roan's
business save his own; he spent the
most of Jils'time in caucus and the rest
of it in convention and procession, and
yet, when you went into thai man's
office, there was a great legend staring
at you from the wall, right over his
desk "Time is money."
- Bo diligent in your business, dearly
beloved, and you will have no time to
manage vour neighbor's affairs, and
this will -keep you out of trouble and
mischief. And just as soon as your
neighbor finds that your time is too val
uable to be wasted upon him for noth
ing, he will want it, and pay for it. Men
always want what is hard for them to
get. Be diligent, and. your "thoughts
will tend to plenty." Be diligent, and
"oat of Asher your bread shall be fat"
Be diligent, and "God shall give thee
of the dew of heaves, and the fatness
of the earth, and, plenty of corn and
wise," and a whole chapter of aacad
meats caa't keep it from you. Bo dili-

Sa?d a wealthy Southern lady whose
husband, a good Christian man. had
been dead jtome years: My husband
orght not to have left so much money
to hi boys." He had given them g-fX).-000
and it liad ruined his two sons. One
had mxm fillod a drunkard's grave, and
the other was a worthless fellow. The
widow lamented that, in his lifetime,
her husband had not dono more good
with h'n wealth.
This little incident carrk-s its own lev
son for every rentier. It should warn
parents against intrusting too much
property to sons and daughters until
they have learned the real value of mon
ey. How little does that young man or
woman know of the real worth of a dol
lar who never knew either the want of
one or what it was to earn one! What
a salutary lesion it would be if every
wealthy father should make his children
do something towards their own support-Senator
Sargent, we think it was,
paitl his two daughters, 825,000 apiece
lor proficiency in cooking. A great
sum, do you say? Yes, but how much
better than to give them S-Vi.OOO with
out their making any attempt to earn it.
But some one says: "Such far-away
examples do not touch us, for we are
not weabhy." Not so fa-nt. The prin-

The Fifth Glass Killed Him.
The man who backed himself with a
fifty-pound sterling note to drink six
glasses of whisky within sixty seconds
lost his wager and his life. "This per
son was a "pork butcher named Ken
nessy. residing in Limerick City, who.
it appears, had frequently demonstrated
his peculiar capacity or swallowing
whisky against time. His last exhibi
tion in this line was witnessed by a nu
merous company, and it is understood
that a ijood deal of moncv changed
hands over the event. Fenncssv's

victims of misplaced coafjdence. A
surgeon with a stomach-pump arrived,

still undetermined, but all the Indica
tions arc that it will equal tho best ex
pectations. The other and perhaps the mo: im
jwirtant of all the crop in a National
tense, and as one in which the interests of
the greatest number of persons arc in
volves!, is the corn. The early summer
was unfavorable. The planting in a
very extended area wai uc ayed beyond
precedent, and in an equal h extras ve
nrua the first planting Va lost or de
stroyed by the excessive rains. Thu lat
tM)rtion was. howrcver, replanted, and the
more genial sun of the later summer
mouths has wondrotisly jirotuotcil the
growth of the whjle vat arei planted
with corn. It has recovered the time
lost in June antl the first of July, antl
on this the Sd day of September it prom
ises a yield equal to the average of a
number of years. Not only d hs the
yield per acre promise in this way, but
the acreage devoted to corn this vear is
much greater than heretofore. This is
due to the change of policy in man of
the Southern States, where'thc ru!e has
been in the pail to buy corn and meat
for home simply. I his year there wilt
be thousands of farm at the South
where corn will be raised for domestic
uses, and where efforts will bo made to
feed a sulllcieney of hogs to meet tho
homo wants for pork and baron. It is
hafe to assume that the acreage devoted
tt the growth of corn this year will be
increased twenty per cent. 6y the addi
tions made in the 'Southern Stites. The
total production of com last year was
comparatively small, the yield "per acre
being far below the average, and tin;
total yield of the whole country this
year may be increased largely, even if
the yield per acre be no greater than
last year a result, however, not antici
pated a' thus time from the present con
dition of the growing crop.
The qua ity mid quantity of the crop
of 18S2 are of great importance finan
cially. What wo produce above ami
beyond the needs for domestic con
sumption is what we will have to sell,
antl represents the profits which in one
form or another are to be added to the
national wealth. On this point a com
parison of the annual production antl
the annual exportation does not fairly
represent tho extent of earnings. It is
very evident that our homo con
sumption of agricu'tural products in
creases even faster than our population.
Our population increases at a liberal
rate annua ly, calling for a projortion
ate increase of the simply of food prod
ucts, but it is unquestionably tnie. a'so.
that our consumption of bread and
meat products increases faster than
does the mere number of our popula
tion We consume more of the ordin
ary food products per cipita every
ye'ar. This Is duo to the general pros
perity of the country antl to the always
increasing improvement in the trans
portation ami all other items entering
mio ami retiuuing ine euii in
production. The man who in the
distribution of his earnings has
horetoforo been able to allot one-
half his income per week to
purchasing a given weight of bread ami
meat, as tho prices of these articles are
reduced in consequence of the use of
Improved machinery or in tho cost of
transportation, finds that the amount of
food obtainable for the same amount of
money is enlarged, antl l he amount pur
chased for consumption I increased
proportionately. Tho growth of the for
eign trade that is, the exports of bread-
stuffs antl provisions to supply foreign
demand antl the amount needed t
meet the requirements of home con
sumption cannot be measured hy tho
extent of the increase of the home poj-
tilation, nor by tho numbers in the. for
cign States dependent upon this coun
try for loo 1. vt e neett an annual in
crease pf food products for home con-
cumption far in excess of any increase
in population, and each foreign popula
tion to whom we supply cheap foot! will
require of us an increase in quantity in
proportion to the reduction in tho price.
lhcrc are now thousands of meat-consumers
antl consumers of American flour
in Europe to whom until within a few
years white bread was unknown and
meat a luxury only tasted on rare festi
vals and holidays."
Thus, though the crops of 1882 mark
an era in our agricultural products not
exceeded in our history, any year that
docs not equal or exceed the previous
one may be styled a failure, to the ex
tent that it fails to meet the ever-growing
demantl not only for home consump
tion, but also to meet the ever-increasing
supply to feed our customers abroad.
It is too ear y yet to venture on fig
ures as to the number of tons of flour.
of corn, antl of provisions we will havo
at the close of the harvest, or of tho
tons of surplus grain and meats we will
have to soil. The deficiency of corn,
and consequently of provisions. last
year must be considered, as also must
the increased demand for home con
sumption. This latter is an unknown
quantity, and it must be supplied and
satisfied before we can venture to seek
foreign markets. But one tiling may be
assured as ascertained and positive:
that, let our product be as large and as
comprehensive as it may. there will be
a market and a demand for every pound
and buhel which we may produce.
