The Mtirv * bnre ns much noedthls dny as when tlioy wero first commissioned nt the Savior's tomb , to "go tell my dlciples thut I nm risen. " We may Judjro by tho apathy and In difference of Christians that they have forgot ton that their Lord has k " 0 Intoiifiircntintry and left to them tho work of converting tho world. The tlmo of his return drnweth ni ; h. and bussed and holy is he whom , when his Lord comes , filpill find wntchlwr and worklntr lorthesaUatlonorKoulK Ohl y careless ones ho sit at ease In Zlon. will yo not now awake out or your slumber and jro forth to gather souls for his kingdom ? The fields are white for the harvest. Where aro tho laborers ? The Women Chrislinu Temperance Unions , where they nre organized and fully equipped forser- vlcu ai e doing more to further the Lord's com Ing and kingdom than tho churches , for they I ke tho primitive disciples go everywhere preaching tho word , reasoning on righteous- n * ss. temperance and u Judgment to come u nil many rulers are made not only to ti em h e. hut forsake their sins mid cspnuso the ca'iso of truth and soberness. There Is surely mat 'rial enough in McCook to form an efficient U'lion that would mako its influence felt in ev.ry department of society , if it could bo g.tthercd up and directed by a leading spirit. In the late Christian convention held in New York city , Itev. Doctor Parkhurst declared himself tired to pieces preaching to saints.peo ple who wero lodged and top heavy with re ligious truth , who had no circulation and had become n coagulated mass of piety in consc quouco of fcrover taking In without ever giv ing out to others , but like priest. like people. This distinguished and talented man preaches to one of the wealthiest churches on Madison 8uaro and it is fair to suppose that lie does not instruct his people thut as they havo free ly received so they should freely give. That the Lord they worship requires hisservtiutsto go out in tho highways and byways among tho ponrand wretched partsoftheclti toseekaud • iavc thoseho are lost. TJ.o servant is not iliove his Lord. What a different showing t-ould the church on Madison square make if Doctor Parkhurst himself would follow thoe.x- tmploofihc blessed Lord and would go among the poor who are peribhing for the bread of life anil give himself to the work of saving • hose who are loft.instead of preaching to those who arc surfeited witli the good iliiugs of the world. Jesus came not to call the ; righteous , but the sinners to repentance. These words of Cardinal Manning should awaken the con science of every earnest Christian. Ilesaxs.

"It is now nearly 111 * > years since the Ruro- ean scholaismadethe most remarkable liter • ry discovery of the centurv. the ex.stence of • tie lvulevuia , or Funsii-pio poc-m. The epic aad never been commiiicd 10 uiiini by the people of Finland , but had floated liom gener ation to generation down the ages by lepeti noil iruiu one to ihe other. \ \ lulu there • ere men among the Finns niio made it aiuiota heir business m life to preserve and perpeiti ilt ; the KaleVala , the p cui was the common properly of the people , and was recited oy uiem over their lireo dur.ug the long wiulur uMiiihs. These recitations were antiphuiiut in otiaracler , alieiii.tte litu-b being given by each 10 the mubic of Hie rude native harp. This < voudui tut poem , the cri at tun ol an uukuowo author ( it , indeed , it be the wt.rK of one and not of uiaio minds ) , has sung itself lor cen times , into il not out of , iheb an of a who.e nation.

A New York paper , in some pleasant gojslp about Mr Longfellow tells a story of the way he treated tho charges of plagiarism sgalnst the Indian poem. "Hiawatha. " In following closely both tho form and substance or The Kalovala. tho national epic or Finland. When thny began to appear , ho showed a profound indifference on the subject ; but before long his publisher thought best to call his attention to them , and suggested that a reply from the poet bo written. "Well , I'll think about it. " said Mr. Longfellow , Mtid tLere tho matter dropped. Tho press continued to echo and re-echo the charge ; and the publisher again called on the poet.8ayiiig. "lb'itlly , Mr. Longlellow. I think It Is high time this charge was answered. " Again Longfellow said. "I'll see about it , " add Ing. quietly , "How 1b the book selling ? " "Oh. wonderfully well. " said the publisher. "Rotter than my other books ? " "Oh.much botter , "and ho named the figures Shortly aHer this in terview ( .Mr. Loiigfellowstill keeping silence ) , tho Tribune came out with almost pane of broadside on the subject. The publisher was now really excited. He ea'led ' on the poet again. "It will not do. " he said very decidedly , "to let this thing go on any longer. ' " "How does the book roll ? " askeo Longfellow. "Amazingly tho sale is already equal to the combined sales of your other books. " "Then , " said Longfellow. "I think wo ought to bo thankful to these critics. Lotthemtulk. Seems to mo they are giving us a largo amount of gratuitous advertising. Detterlotthem alone. " And lot alone they wero. The fact that at that timo there was no existing translation Into English which would enable readers to make comparisons , rendered Mr. Longrellow's si lence comparatively safe. Now that a com plete tratiBlition is published in flue and popu lar Torm by Aldcn. readers will havo a justifl able curiosity to investigate , and see wherolu tho resemblance lies. And , as commonly is true in comparing originals and imitations , it will be found that groat as the merit is of Mr. Longfellow's work , and characteristic of his own individuality , Tho Kalovala is a work of almost infinitely higher order.
