On the 10th of June at Weihaiwei Admiral Seymour caused the emergen cy call to be hoisted ashore. Xotice was given to the fleet, which consisted of the Victorious, Barfleur, Centurion.

Babbit of Brattleboro, Vt., occupied the pulpit of the Central Union church last evening. His sub ject was "The Angel of Faith;" text, Exodus 23:20, "Behold I send an An gel before thee in the way and to bring thee into the place which I have pre pared." It is first necessary to know what is meant by the term angel. We see them depicted in the masterpieces con ceived in artists' brains and drawn with skilful 'hands as graceful, airy forms disdaining the earth. But an angel can just as well be a noble up right child of God treading the paths of earth. An angel is a messenger sent to instruct and give directions to the true Life. There are visions, creations of sha dow and not of substance, in all the walks of life. We are led by what we hope will be, and upon our guiding star it depends whether the path be tip or down. Here the speaker gave an eloquent and graphic word picture of Mam moth cave, likening it to the c'hanging scenes of life. As the sightseers de pended upon their guide whose lamp was ever before them so must we with faith and trust feel the meed of a Divine Guide to lead us through the shadows to those final realms where darkness, pain and death are unknown. The world is full of unquiet forces. But the Angel of a Quiet Spirit is hovering near, and over the troubled waters of life there comes a 'heavenly calm. God's promises of peace are deep and. inspiring to those gifted with the faith to believe. The dread phantom of fear loses its power in the presence of abiding faith. Just as there is an Angel of Faith so is there the Angel of Perfect Con fidence. In Him we are to place im plicit trust. "I am at rest because a love divine enfolds this life of mine," said Charles Kingsley. He felt, he knew that about him hovered the An gel of Love. To 'him 'had come the An gel of Faith. This is God's world placed Jiere for us. And in our better moments we can clasp the hand of Him, and through our being feel the thrill of His divine presence; we have the faith that in the world to come the veil of flesh, which now darkly intervenes, will be torn away and we shall see Him, "face to face." hour afterwards and bv 11 o'clock those available, namelv. l.TOo i men, composed of 1,300 seamen and 400 marines, all fully armed, carrying two hundred and fifty rounds of ammuni tion and equipped with two days' pro visions, were landed with their field guns and ambulance corps by their own boats. It is reported the Iphige nia made the best time in this bril liant maneuver. X. C. Daily Xews. The Only High Grade Baking Powdor Offered at q Mod erate Price. NONE SO GOOD. NOTICE. SORROW'S USES. The uses of sorrow I comprehend Better and better at each year's end. Deeper and deeper I seem to see Why and wherefore it has to be. Only after the dark, wet days Do we fully rejoice in the sun's bright rays. Sweeter the crust tastes after the fast Than the sated gourmand's finest re past. The faintest cheer sounds never amiss To the actor who once has heard a hiss. To one who the sadness of freedom knows Light seem the fetters love may impose. And he who has dwelt with his heart alone Hears all the music in friendship's tone. So better and better I comprehend How sorrow ever would be our friend. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. CHRISTIAXITY IX JAPAX.
