The Keliffion Heeded.
Moucurc D. Couway, as recently
quoted by you, eays that tbe only
religion, needed by humauity is that
which will make life more sweet
ami gentle. Very true ; and which
will do this, the doctrine that -this
life is ouly the lower fringo of that
"Clear fount of light, our native land
on hiph,
Briclit with a glory that doth ncer
fade,"
or the doctrine that neither its good
nor its ill, neither its highest virtue,
nor its deepest wickedness, has any
essential or eternal biguifkauce?
How much sweetness is likely to
come Into life from the drear blank
nesa of such a view ? We learn that
the Saddticeep, who held thin view
were lew, wealthy and cruel. They
honored their creed by a character
conformed to it.
This creed, however, may take an
opposite direction, that of a pathet
ic despair. That is its form in
Buddhism, which, as Goldwin Smith
lemarks, has begotten neither a
elate, nor a church, nor a civiliza
tion, nor a literature, but merely a
cougcriiH ot stagnating monasteries.
Halted of pain; honor of a&ceti
cibtu ; a mere retiued Epicureanism,
glazed for a while by the light of
higher sentiments, that 6priug from
a nobler faith, but by its own inte
rior law of development becoming
ever coarser and harder. A noble
creed, this, truly 1 It was over just
such a creed that the Gospel of the
loving and righteous Kedeemerouce
triumphed, and over it that it will
triumph again.
Conway's religious history is
about equal to his theology. He says
that every prophet taught love, and
every system hate, Mahomet, at the
head of his fierce Arabs, offering
"The Koran tribute, or the sword,"
is a precious exponent of love, is he
not? In this century there was in
deed a cry for the restoration of hiB
real doctrine, and there issued from
it those fierce fanatics, the Waha
bees. And Ituddha taught that love,
indeed, is better than hatred, but
that the perfect stale is that of him
who neither loves nor hates. And
the Buddhist system has beeu per
fectly faithful to both sides of his
teaching. These slapdashassertions
of-Conway are very taking to the
multitude, and very worthless.
The assertion that as science ad
vances, supernatural terrors will
teem more and more grotesque, has
no meaning unless it is, that physic
al science will destroy the belief in
the life after death. For assuredly
in every life wickedness will entail
woe. And how Physical Science is
to have any authority in a province
wholly out of her range does not
appear.
Moucurc D. Conway need not put
on bo mauy airs, and make such a
flourish over his creed. It is simply
the old one: Man, not as enibody
iug the purpose, aud . sharing the
nature and blessedness of the Living
God, but Man as the ceutre aud end,
believing and liviug from the pres
ent scope of pleasure aud hatred ot
pain. Moncure D. Conway was
brought up a Christian, and remains
personally a man of high ideals.
But Atheism, however disguised, is
blill Atheism, aud has logically and
historically only one of two issues:
Debauchery or Despair. c. c. s.

The practice of loafing is one that
, is .to be discountenanced by every
one engaged in business. How
often do wo 6ee more especially in
a village such as our own the mer
chant's 'business materially iujured
by this practice. "Wo do not mean
the occasional patron who stops to
chain few moments when his pur
chase is completed but this crowd
of men aud boys who habitually
anuoy the business mau. These
familiar faces too familiar which
you can see day after day and even
ing after evening in their different
places of resort, lounging aud smok
ing, and not unusually indulging in
profanity aud vulgarity. These
habitual loafers, who6e faces are al
most as prominent a feature of the
establishment as the sign above the
door these are they who persistent
ly hold possession of the place, not
withstanding the pointed insinua
tions and broad Inula of the proprie
tor that their room would be pre
ferable to their company. As a rule
they make this a place of discussing
the affairs of others, criticising the
conduct of their neighbors and not
unfrequeutly slandering those who
attend to their own affairs. To say
the least of it, this system of loafing
is pernicious. Imagine (he feeliugs
of a sensitive-lady, who on eutering
a store door, is greeted by a cloud
of tobacco smoke, a chorus of laugh
ter from half a dozen pairs of star
ing qyes. Yet this is just what they
- have to meet with in the stores
where losfiug is not entirely pro
hibited. The loafer, as a rule, is not
a profitable patron. He generally
is a Miioker, aud is always on the
look-out for a treat. He uever buys
anything that he can beg, and is al
ways posted on the last "racket"
they had iu school; is always the
first man at a fight, and the last one
to go home. He generally is a good
talker in a way he does a great
deal of it, talks all the time, in fact,
it would appear as though talking
was his mission into the world. He
wears good clothing and )s some
times "cute." Makes a hero of him
self in the eyes of sensible men.
Never imagines that he is in any
one's way, but has a notion thai he
is a public benefactor. The mer
chant wishes to get rid of him but
cannot. All the insinuations he may
throw out arc useless aud unheeded ;
they aro always meant for some one
else. Should he toll him, "thou art
the man," he becomes offended and
swears eternal veugeance. Reader,
are you a loafer? If you are think
for a moment. Toil occu y that
room which the proprietor has built
or rented for his business, and to
which you have no more claim than
he has to your private parlor at
home. Because you are a loafer,
persons are suspicious of you and
do not like to transact business in
your presence, and will not do so if
they can avoid it. They will go to
the house that has no loafers, if
there be one. Hence you injure
business by your presence. You
iujure communities and individuals
by your gossip. You injure small
boys by your example. Yon injure
yourself by spending your time hi
idleness while you might be acquir
ing knowledge that would be useful
to you in after life. Blue Springs

Soiuc I'urlouM Fuctw.
Alabama is as large as Euglaud,
yet has only 1,000,000 people to Eng
land's 21,000.000. California, with
less than 1,000,000 of people, is very
little smaller than France with 30,
000,000. Nevada is a little smaller,
aud Oregon is larger, thau New
York and Pennsylvania combined;
so either of these new slates could
easily hold the two older states'
combined population of 8,000,000.
We do not thiuk Massachusetts
over-crowded with 1,500.000, nor
Ohio with less than :J,000,000, nor
New York with 4,500,000; and yet
if Texas were settled as thickly as
New York, its 1,000,000 would grow
to 21,000,000; it like Massachusetts,
it would hold 52,000,000, or more
than the present population of the
Union. There aro only fifteen states
out of the thirty-eight which have
each more thau 1,000,000 ot people,
while there are fourteen states
which have a larger area than Eng
land, with her 21,000,000. Settled
like England, these states would
have more thau 300,000,000. The
states toward which immigration is
mainly settling are Minnesota, Ne
braska, Kansas, Texas and Colorado.
These about equal Missouri in pop
ulation, while their area is ten times
hers. So, to be equally populated
like Missouri, sparsely populated as
the state is, these five should have
20,000,000; aud, to be settled like
Massachusetts, being ninety times as
large, they must have 135,000,000, or
three times our present population.
If the whole territory of the union
were settled like New York, it
would contain 270,000,000; if like
Massachusetts, 500,000.000; and if it
reached England's ratio of inhabi
tants to the square mile, its popula
tion would almost equal the present
population of the globe.
Lore aud Politic.
Not far from Lackawaxen, Pike
County, Pa., is the home of two
young ladies, sisters, aged respect
ively eighteeu aud twenty years.
They were each receiviug the ad
dresses of lovers, who were broth
ers, aud both couple were engaged
to be married. It was their inten
tion to celebrate a double wedding
about the holidays, but now matters
have chauged. A few days ago the
four were sitting together iu the
parlor at the girls' home when the
elder lady expressed a desire to at
tend a political meeting then being
held in a near-by village. She asked
her lovor to accompauy her, but he
refused point blank, giving as his
reason that he was uot a Democrat.
The young lady insisted, but still he
refused. Finally she turned to his
brother, who, it seems, was a Dem
ocrat, and asked him to accompauy
her. To the surprise of all he at
once consented aud they went to the
meeting. The two who remained at
home were quite indiguaut, tbe one
at the conduct of her lover, the other
at the way his sweetheart had acted.
The more they discussed it the an
grier they became. They discov
ered that they the ones at home
were both Republicans, while the
two who had gone wore of Demo
cratic proclivities. They talked on,
discovering little by little similari
ties of tastes aud habits, and finally
resolved each to break with the old
love and form a new alliance. No
sooner resolved than the compact
was ratified by a kiss, when by
chf uco the others entered. The gen
tleman told hie brother at once
what they had decided to do. To
his great surprise uo sorrow was
shown, uo anger manifested, and his
wonder was increased when he was
iuformed that the other couple,
while on their walk home, had re
solved to do just the same thiug.
The hugging, therefore, now goes
on as usual, and weddings will take
place about. New Years. Cor. JV. Y.

The minister asked the Sunday
school: "With what remarkable
weapon did Sampson at one time
slay a uumber of Philistines?" For
a while there was no auswer, and
the minister, to assist the children
a little, began tapping bis jaw with
the tip of finger, at the same time
saying: ''What's this what's this?'
Quick as thought a little fellow
quite innocently replied: "The jaw
bone of an ass, sir."
IHxlttecn!
At eighteen the true narrative of
life is yet to be commenced. Before
that time we sit listening to a. tale
a marvelous fiction delightful
sometimes aud sad sometimes; al
ways unreal. Before that time our
world is heroic its inhabitants half
divine or semi-demon ; its scenes are
dream scenes; darker woods and
stranger hills, brighter skies, more
dangerous waters, sweeter flowers,
more tempting frnits, wider
plains, drearier deserts, sunnier
fields than are found in nature over
spread our enchanted globr. "What
a moou we gaze ou before that time I
How the trembling of our hearts at
her aspect bears wituesa to its un
utterable beauty ! As to our sun, it
is a burning heaven the world ot
gods. At that time at eighteen,
drawing near the confines of illu
sive, void dreams, Elf-laud lies be
fore us, the shores of reality rise in
front. These shores are yet dis
tinct ; they look so blue, soft, gentle,
we lout; to reach them. In sunshine
we see a greenness beneath the azure
as of spring meadows ; we catch
glimpses of silver lines aud imagine
the roll of liviug waters. Could we
but reach this laud we think to hun
ger and thirst no more; whereas,
many a wilderness, aud often the
flood of death, or some stream ot
sorrow, as cold and almost as black
as death, is to be crossed ere true
bliss cau be tasted. Every joy that
life gives must be earned ere it is
secured ; and how hardly earned
those ouly know who have wrestled
for great prizes. The heart's blood
must grace with red beads the brow
of the combatants before the wreath
of victory rustles over it. At eigh
teen we are not aware of this.
Hope, when she smiles ou us, aud
promises happiness to-morrow, is
implicitly believed. Love, when he
comes wandering like a lost angel at
our door, is at once admitted, wel
comed, embraced ; his quiver is not
seen ; it the arrows pouetrate, their
wound is like a thrill of new life;
there are no fears of poison, none ot
the barb which no lecche's hand cau
extract ; that perilous passion no
agony ever iu some of its phases,
with mauy, one agony throughout
is believed to be an unqualified
good. In short, at eighteen the
school of experience is to be enter
ed, aud her humble, crushing, grind
ing, but purifying and iuvigoratiug
lessons are yet to be learned. 'Alas,
experience 1 No other mentor has
so wasted and frozen a face as yours ;
none with a hand so inexorable
draws the novice so sternly to his
task, and forces him with an author
ity so resistless to its acquirements.
It is by your instructions alone that
mau or woman can ever find a safe,
track through life's wilds ; without

they intrude; down what dread de

offers to give away knowledge of

was thus made the purveyor of the

would put a prize in them before
