' : 1>BAS STANhKY ON THB EAIiLY CHRISTIANS.--- The Dean of Westminster recently delivered ��������� iii i n ret esti ng, lecture on A the. ';* Early., Ch ris- ;;imns." In Ve course of bis lecture, Dean Stanley said:���������It Is reported that John Wesley once in the course of the night found bim- self as he -thought at the pates of hell. He fcii o cked, n ud asked who were wi th i n. ������ A re there any Protestants here V he asked. ' Yes/ was the answer. * a great many.' * Any Roman* Catholics V ..'Yes, a great many.' 'Any Church of England men ?' * Y*s. a great many.' * Any Presbyterians V l Ye9, a great -many.' 'Any Wesleyans?' 'Yes, a great ttiany.' Disappointed and discouraged, especially at the last reply, he traced his steps upwards, and found himself at the gates of Paradise,?, and here he repeated the same questions. * Any Wesley a ns here V 'No.?��������� 4,Any PresbyteriansV 'No.' 'Any Church ,of England men ?' ' No.' ' Any Roman Catholics?' 'No.' 'Whom have yon, then?' Ke asked in astonishment ' We know nothing here,' v?as the reply, 'of the names you have mentioned. The only, name of which we know anything is Christian, We are all Christians here, and of those we have a great multitude, which no man can number, of all nations, and kindreds, and peoples,and tontrnes.' That is the truth which we should have fo learn hereafter ahoul the name Christian, and it may be aa well for tie to learn it bere.. It includes and comprises and overrides all the other names by which men have been divided, t>ecause it is the name derived from Him to whom they all look, from whom they are all descended, and in whom they all live. Christianity is a nobler name than any particular form of Christians. Christendom is a more magnificent name than any particular creed or section of Christians. in each hand she held a wreath ; the one was composed of natural and the other of artificial flowers. Art .in. the-labor of the mimetic wreath "had exquisitely emulated the lively hues of nature, so that at the distance it was held by the queen for the inspection of the king it was deemed impossible for him to decide, as her question imported which wreath was the production of nature and which the work of art. The sagacious Solomon seemed perplexed ; yet to be vanquished, though in a trifle, by a woman irritated his pride. The son of David���������he who had written treatises on the vegetable productions.' from tbe cedar to the hyssop'���������to acknowledge himself to be outwitted by n woman wilh shreds "of paper ond glazed paintings! The honor of the mnn. arch's repuiaiion for divine sagacity seemed diminished, aad the whole Court locTked solemn and melancholy. At length an expedient presented itself to the king, and it,must be confessed worthy .of the naturalist. Observing a cluster of bees hovering about a window be commanded that it should be opened. It was opened : the bees rushed into tbe Court and alighted immediately on one of the wreath's, while not a single one fixed on the other. The baffled Sheha-had one more reason to be astonished.at the'wis dom ot Solomon.���������[J. CDisraeli.-- "MISCELLANEOUS. A Chance! Solomon and the Quern of Shsba,���������A Rabbin once told me of an ingenious inven-, tion which in the Talmud is attributed to Solomon :���������The power of the monarch had spread his wisdom to the remotest part of the known world. Queen Sbeba attracted by the splendor of his reputation visited this practical king at his own Court. There one day to exercise the sagacity of the monarch, Sbeba presented herself at the foot of the throne. A Martyr to Patriotism.��������� A small farmer residing in the hamlet of.'Vjllebeau (Seme-et- Oise), has, in a fit of mental aberration^ deprived himself, of sight, that he might; no. longer be a witness,of .tho;pccupatiij'ri of .his. country by the Prussians, who had burned down all his property in bis presence, a mem ber of his family perishing in the flames. He had often threatened that*be would tear out his eyes, and everything that could be thought dangerous was kept out of his way. He, however, got bold of a.book,which described the Chinese method of blinding offenders of high position, by placing a small portion of quick lime over the eyes and tying it down with a wet bandage.. He procured some lime, applied it in this manner, and destroyed his sight. Tun New York Worid^bus mi interesting letter on tbe enormous increase of iron shipbuilding in Great Britain. The great centre of this interest is the river Clyde, both shores Of which are lined for miles with shipyards. The writer says,upon what lie considers good authority, that there are-5.400 iron steamers now building in the United Kingdom. He adds that the British merchants are diverting their maritime trade from sailing vessels to steamers as fast as they can, the completion of the Suez canal being the great event which has awakened tbem to the increased advantages of steam over sail. :;������ PARTIES PREPARING FOR WINTER WILL SAVE MONEY!

Title | The Cariboo Sentinel |
Publisher | Barkerville, B.C. : George Wallace |
Date Issued | 1872-01-13 |
Description | The Cariboo Sentinel was published in Barkerville, in the Cariboo region of central British Columbia, and ran from June 1865 to October 1875. At the time, Barkerville was home to a fast-growing community of miners who had been attracted to the Cariboo region by the discovery of gold. The Sentinel was published by George Wallace, and its stated objective was not only to disseminate mining intelligence, but also to eradicate official abuse[s] of power, both within the Cariboo region and beyond (vol. 1, no. 1, p. 2). |
