THE CHRISTIAN WATCH. This duty is moat mcredly enjoined «li every christian, to watch, not par­ ticularly the5r neighbors, but more particularly themselves. The Psalm- H>t says, set a watch before rav moutlu m much as to say let that be well guarded. Jeremiah learned to under­ stand the evil watches. He says, there are wtone that watch over others for eviL. \Vould ft not be we1.! for the professor in particular to adopt that kind of watching that Christ and the Apostles recommended. Jesus eay? watch and pray that ye enter not into temptation. It ought not to be doubted by professors but what Christ understood best wliat they should watch for. The Apostle says watch ye, stand forth in the faith, let us watch and be sober, be sober and of Hfc etmi&i, «$*!r voice It silent Tliey no# h*ve returned to their for­ mer Associates and habit", like the sow that was waabed to her wallowing In ttte raire and the dog to Mt vomit •thin. This all growing oot of an tm- heftltl̂ condition of tbe church and a ̂ cbriatian influence. Sttll in the church fhete unruly member* keep thetrchristian standing, partaking of the emblems of Christ's body and blood. • _ .. - ,po.; waich unto prayer, watch with all per- rrf'V iT'f 5I*t« r ^any 11 severance, blessed is he whom his Lord l i l V . ! ? * , , r U w a t c h i n g . T h i s H o l y w a t c h - send you a 1 bath more to exhibit and make a show of style than to serve God, a kind of phaHsaical demonstration, which Oltrist pronounced au utter contempt for, jealousy cropping out, which the wise writer said was more cruel than the grave. The adornment of many has its strong influence. Some dress­ ing simply to be seen. Without many exceptions every one knowing just what sister A or B. hud on to chirch to-day. whether they know any thing about the sermon or not. but such is the force of the fashion, that it attracts attention of the most devoted and pious. Hence many stay away from church or the place ot worship just for the simple reason (and truly It is simple in the extreme) that they can't dress as foolish as such sister and the result is that many feel themselves forced to stay at home. Fashion is so changeable tliat many are so limited In finances that to follow the fashious gracefully is entirely out of the ques­ tion. Therefore they do not possess quite religion enough to enjoy going to church among the fashionable, so at hoir.e they must content themselves. Then the observing wish to know the brother or sister when at church but many times we are really puzzled.-- They look so much unlike themselves. The head so beantifuiy ornamented, the dress In knots and hitches, and the face of sister F. or sistsr M, really don't look natural. They not being satisfied with the face and complexion, that God thought good enough for the body, the paint Is iatfoduQed, red and white. From appearance the sister looks as though she had just come out from a notable paint shop, just chang­ ed from a God given celt into another fashionable being, simply changing the outward appearance but not the heart or character. What then shall we call it only morality in dlsgusie. Connect ed with this Is the gold, pearls, and costly array. This mode of ornament lug may be the means of driving the pious husband to do an unlawful and desperate business, with what Is commonly termed a hole in the wall, dealing out to men old and vouug "Ruin", in order to keep this darling paint shop with good material and in good running order. That the pious sister may, according to conscience adorn the outward appearance with fine and costly apparel, and the face with redjittid white, that she may wend her way In obedience to divine com­ mand, to the ylace of worship, aud there in the presence of him who is not deceived,pretend to worship In spirit and in truth, but Inwardly are full of dead mens bones. Now let us see what holy writ says about this kind of busi­ ness. The Apostle says: Let not the adorning be of that outward adorning, of putting on of apparel, of plaiting of the hair, and of wearing of gold, (said nothing about pains shops probably none in his day) for after this nianngr in the olden times, the holy women also who trusted in God, adorned them­ selves, again, in like manner, also that women adorn themselves in modest apparel witli shamel'acedness and So­ briety. not with braided hair or gold, or pearls or costly array, which becotn- etli women professing godliness with good works. Judge whether the apostle was wise or foolish in tills ad­ vise and admonition. Buc says one he did not live in the day of fashion. Grant it, But he will live and wear a crown in the great day of God Al­ mighty. while you may fail of tbe crown and of the promised land. Pride often prevents a person from discharging a known duty to God and man. reeling it a duty to take a part in prayer meeting, will begin to excuse themselves. 1 can't pray like that brother or sister therefore I will not try in public. Perhaps you have a poor brother or sister side and in want. You feel it a duty toso apd administer to their neceSities. But the conclusion sometimes may be, well I guess they will be cared for; they live a little out of my runway in an old shanty and are poor and of notfmuch account. If I should go some one would see ine and make remarks. I will stay away. Pro­ fessor did you ever think that if you stayed away one would see you and make remarks? The invisible eye sees you. Christ will make remarks some­ thing like these. When saw we the sick and visited thee not, buttery and fed thee not, naked and clothed thee not, and in as much as ye did it not un­ to these my dicipies' ye did it not unto me, and these shall go away into ever­ lasting punishment, but the riehteous into life eternal.No excuses before the Eternal will answer for justification. We will see now what tbe word of the Lord says about pride: David says tbe Lord purposed It to stain the pride of glory. Jeremiah says, weep in secret for your pride, Ezekial refers to the pride of Sodom. Daniel says those that walk in pride he is able to abase, Obadiah says the pride of the ucait hath {IsCCiVCu tuvC. CiiriSL out of the heart of man proceeds evil thoughts, pride and foolishness.-- Paul says not a novice lest being lifted up with pride lie fall into condemna­ tion of the devil. These are the te&ti* monies of inspiration against pride, and should have a tendency to correct its Withering aud chilliuf evils ing is for the safety and protection of the christian, also an obligated duty.-- For this reason God has commanded the christian to watch. By this holy watching no neighbor would be slan­ dered or injured. It Is an undeniable truth (which should be ignored by all good people and all others) that there are some In the church who are very careful and zealous to watch this one or that one for evil, not only by day but prowl about by night for" the purpose of satisfying an evil disposition.-- Those thus disposed aided by the sneak called the devil, oorwpy 'quite a portion of time In this unholy duty, seeking for something to satiate their evil'propensities. Such persons al­ though wrapped In the christian cloak, are wolves in sheep? clothing, and are more to be feared and dreaded than the flies and lice of Egypt. Packing the budget and starting for some so­ cial gathering for the purpose of re­ lieving themselves of something won­ derful. This is sowing tares, and Christ said the sower is the devil, (a very ap­ propriate name) yes, old Satin himself knows well who to employ to do dirty work, which would make the old fellow blush to he guilty of. The outside *vorld is forced to scorn with contempt the Individual who is so void of manlj' or womanly virtue or principle. The command in ancient days was, wTien there was evil doers or wickedness in the camp to search it out, that pesos might prevail and abound iu all Its borders.-- Would it n«»t be well for the churches to search out the tare sowers and give them a pass to emigrate to where they belong, that peace, quietude and good will might abound throughout their borders? I:£ v : i' vS -̂T- 1 v. Si: SS&Sm&iW Hmrns,uow*. ' V 4 PROFKSSORS IXfflURXCt. Probably there Is not an Intelligent human beitig« no matter how degraded, but that has an influence tor good or evll.(no neutral ground)The modes of­ fered for exerting influence are various each person in their own way. Often It may t»e the case that they are not aware of it themselves, bnt influence the well disposed. Some with a mo­ tive and design, exercising a powerful influence ivith no good results or sins with it, some by wealth, some by pity some by style, and some by putting on airs. This the most simple, foolish ami destructive lo society and false in real­ ity. For instance I am of high blood, my antecdsnts were Clergymen, Doc­ tors. Lawyers. Merchants (shun to tell of them in the Ptaitentlary, or should be )Such people soar above gen­ tility, civility or morality. In the struggle for inlliience and populsrlty deception Is the theme for success.- They abandon the great anchor of principle and mora) influence until shame and disgrace is their utter de­ feat to themselves and followers. Then to exert an influence for good every person, especially the professor should be stimulated by the sptrltof doing good. As the fountain Is so will the stream be. It is an undeniable truth that the christian church is far in the rear of their privilege of exerting an influ­ ence. Some not with #i4|r own church, even among its own members is confi­ dence not just what H1tt#aldl»e,a little suspicious one of another for what, no one can tell. Suapiclous of the broth ers judgment or honesty efpsfelaUy i" business transactions. The light of Christianity is under a bushel nraft of the time and not shining. The chris­ tian heart entirely groped in darkness, suspicious influences even in the house of the Lord. Probably the real cause is the beam in their own eye. Is it not true that the fellowship, honesty and piety of professed religion is plainly and flatly doubted even by those whom Christ exhorted to love one another as he had loved them?- This causes a blight, a moral dlsea among the churches, Paul says by t grace of God we persuade men. Is true that taking this view- that thej people who stand aloof from the; church and Christianity are petsuaded by the grace of uod? It Is a truth that to use grace as a persuasive power the individual must possess iu them­ selves. Hence the* failure. There is the scrutinizing eye of those out Side of Unchurch capable of judging as professors themselves, and many with much candor and honesty, and with no evil motive, starting out with the pro­ fessors own assertion of a moral change, forsaking former habits and pretend­ ing to follow the Saviours divine com­ mands. We see this brother, be used profanity before he uuited with church, he does now, he used to deal out the reviving clement before lie professed religion, he does now, he was accused of dealing dishoneatly, now lie is suspected of the same, and what is more, even the pastor of the church to which he belongs knows it aud passes it by with impunity. With these facts they ask whore Is the change for I letter? They feel theinselvea force* to this conclusion, that if Up!* is the i ligion that the churches endorse 1 take my chances in the society coudition I now am In. Again the young convert who but a few ago was so brilliant and zeal serving God and laboring to persuade others to fort«altej of si is and folly, they he com ^d atid diS£«sM wttb IS THERE NO RRMEDT, * Pan! *ar» shall we continue In slu that grace may abonndP "God forbid,'- Oh might not the church better return to Jesus who suffered, died and rose again to establish a plan of salvation, a reli^on that would adapt Itself to all, the rtah. poor, white, black, bond or free, and h!s uospel or Salvation which is pure and powerful, converting the soul, and Invites the blood of all nations, wlthont money, without price. A religion that makes men better. "Thank God" a religion freely offered, originated In Heaven, and developed among the chlldron of men, a religion that the combined powers of earth would fail to prevent the true christian enjoying its bless­ ings, living under its Influence* and dying in the fall triumph of divine faith of a rich reward beyond the valley and shaddow of death. This re­ ligion says Christ consists In loving the Lord thy God with all thy heart, might, mind and strength, and thy neighbor as thyself. For on these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Again do unto others as ye would that they should do untojrou. aud this is not all, love your enemies, pray for them that despite- fully nse you. Some may think these hard sayings, but Christ said them and he will not remove them to please the taste of man. Something more he says. Pure and uudeflled religion before God and the Father Is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction and keep yourselves un­ spotted from the world. Professor have you any objection to Christ's judgment, of the salvation It takes to save men t This would be folly. If he •s right in his sayings. In my mind tlHfre is no doubt. Would It not be well and wise to discard all other say- ings that is not of Christ and base our 1 topes and faith on that rock that is higher than we I It would not be strange that If every true christian like the captives on their knees by the river of Babylon should weep when they think of Zlon. No donbt but what Isaiah the Prophet bad In his prophet­ ic mind all people who vainly wonhlp God, when he Said this people drawetn nigh utteo me with their mouth, and lionoreth me with their lips, bnt their heart Is far from me. In vain do the; worship me teaching the oommaid ments of men. Therefore the great and vital qaastion to be decided is this. For the gre*t day of his wrath Is empa and who shall be able to staitd> Will there not be many professing tbfeHow the voice of tbe son of Qod, in that great day call for the rocks and moun­ tains, saying fall on us ana hide us from the fa.je of him thatsltteth on the throne and from the Wrath of the Lord. ' This seems to be a dark side of the professor nevertheless true. But another side full of joy, full of promise. To the pure and good In heart wheth­ er belonging to a aburoh or oot, their home is destined to b* la heaven. Christ aays to sush. **I go to prepare a plsee for yon and If I go sad prepare a place for you I will come again and receive you unto myself thai where I am you may be also?' John, the reve* latorsavs: "To htm that overeometb will I give him a white stone and in the stone a new name written which no mau knoweth saving he that re- ceiveth it." In conclusion, let me say to all pro­ fessing Christianity, who are vainly serving God with a lip service as the Prophet Isalh said to Heaeklah when about to die. "Set thine house in order, for thou shalt die'and not live.*' Fretted. Tinkering a diseased liver and dis­ ordered kidneys, with harsh or stimu­ lating drugs, is like fretting a sick animal with tbe spur. These things do not cure. In Kidney-Wort is found a Krfeet medicine, gentle hut sure in i wolltii w*amw©Ti»N ^. #*iniiTGTo?r, D. a JiM* lilt m» We may as well sta. predicting the adjournment, for this CongveasioBfct agony seems no nearer tit end to-da? than It did a week ago. The Republi­ cans of the Senate manifest a disposi­ tion to make more opposition than they did in the Hotweto the appropri­ ation bills with the restrictive clauses, and threaten a bitter fight. It is also intimated that she President will veto the Judicial expenses bill because it prohibits money' to supervisors and marshals of elections, and the army bill, becawse It Interferes, he says, with the executive ?>erogatbes. Then the con­ test Will be renewed and bitterer than ever,with possibility that the Demo­ crats will no longer hesitate to euforee their original policy of aAfeurniiig without providing fcr the Government expenses. The President's friends say that should they do so the President would call them together again within M hours, and keep up the fight to the end of the year if neoossary. The Greessbaokers have gotten their back up because there is a pr«>S]ieot that -h«y may be crowded out of existence between the two other parties. The Immediate provocation Is the fkllma of Congress to do anything for what they call financial reform. The National Ttmu the greenback organ here cri tsets­ es the work of the present Congrats,-- After reciting the promises made by the democrats in the campaign of 18IS, and charging that those promises were not only not mentioned, but entirely Ignored by Congress, the National Flew says: *What democrat talked In 1878 about troops at the polls." A free ballot,. *No supervisors', and all that sort of froth ? Not one. The Demo­ cratic leaders organize the party by the cancu? System, and In caucus *g?m» that tho party, as such, shall make tests of party fidelity and loyalty.-- And what an these tests? Tha repeal of the RSSumption Laws. Noi at all. The repeal of the law giving the National Banks the central of tha money of the country? Not at all*-- The Income tax? No. The substitu­ tion of greenbacks for bank notes? Ifctatall. A law making Greenbacks fegal tender for debts, public and pri­ vate f No, Sir. Koneef thosa mea»» ares are made caucus ftiftisaras, bat tha Juror's Test Oath law is, and yet this very law was repealed by a Republican Senate or the last Congress, and by It sent to a Democratic House, that It before its Judiciary Committee for Mdays withoot maklng arspeK for or i against it. And this IS the party of/ t h e p e o p l e , t h e p a r t y f o r r e f o r m a o # g * ^ relief." They assail the Republicans I with even more venom as the part? af Moated bondholders and monopolists. TJw trouble is that tbe Democrats ta Maine and Ohio have very neariy ab- ' •orbed tbe Greenbacks, and they have slight preepect of doing much as tfca I third party In 1810. A fuuuy Incident aecured at tha opening of the Senate the other day.-- ; 1 Both parties wan balding caucus at 5; noon, the hour appointed for conven­ ing, Senator Thurman, President pro tern, was about to call the Senate to ' order, and was surprised to find upon entering tbe Senate Chamber) that no Senators were present. Think­ ing, however, the Senators were in the cloak rooms, he seated himself la tha i Vice President's chair, and as he did so Senator Hill, of Georgia entered the , chamber. Mr. Turman arose and thumped the desk seveml times with the gavt l, in the belief that Senators would respond from the cloak-moma-- As they did not respond, the PlesidsnMK,; protem. with tbe eyes of the crowd auditors in the galleries apoahim, felt tbe awkardness ot his position, aad | realize that there was only one waj out " : the difficulty. Looking seriously at Mr Hill the President pro tem. said, 1 in the imial solemn tones of the pre­ siding* officer. "The Senator frope Georgia will pleaae come to order.**-- Tho scene was enjoyable to the leries, tor it showed that the usual v solemnity of the judicial mind <atn of> ten'furnish an ageeabie joke.
