treated with derisiou, and we were told
that he was not in earueft when he

did mean it. Six years ago he ex-

During the first half of this century
we expended eight million dollars to
educate the Indians, and four hundred
millions to kill them, According to a
reliable statistician, during this century
we have had the Crimean war, which
slew seven hundred and eighty-live
thousand, and cost one billion seven
hundred million dollars; and our Am-
orieau civil war. which slew a million
men, North and South, and cost billions
0( dollars, digging a grave trench from
Barnegat Lighthouse, N. J., to "Lone
Houutain” cemetery at San Francisco.

leads on.
` It has been a. custom in all Christian
'lands for people to keep watch-night. as
an old year goes out and a new year
comes in. People assemble in churches r
ihout ten o’clock of that last night oi
the old year, and they have prayers,
and songs and sermons, and congratu-
lations until the hands ot the church
clock almost reach the ligure twelve,
and then all bow in silent prayer; and
the scene is mightily impressive, until
the clock in the tower of the city hall,
strikes twelve, and then all rise and

doxology.
But what a tremendous watchnight

century-will depart at twelve o’ctock

breath of the dying century, and when
the clock shall strike twelve, there will

awe such as has not been felt for a

will arise and chant. the welcome of a
new century of joy and st rrow, of
triumph and defeat, of happiness and
