But i am now to unroll before you a scroll of heroes that the world has never acknowledged those who faced no guns blew no Bugle blast conquered no cities chained no captives to their Chariot wheels and yet in the great Day of eternity will stand higher than those Whoso names startled the nations and seraph and rapt spirits and archangel will Tell their deeds to a listening universe. I mean the heroes of common everyday life. In this Roll in Tho first place i find All the heroes of the sick room. When satan had failed to overcome Job he said to god a put Forth thine hand now and touch his Bone and his flesh and he will curse thee to thy satan had found out what we have All found out that sickness is the greatest test of one�?T3 character. A Man who can stand that can stand anything to be shut in a room As fast As though it were a Bastile to be so nervous you can not endure the tap of a child a foot to have luxuriant fruit which tempts the appetite of the robust and healthy excite our loathing Ami disgust when it appears on the Platter to have the rapier of pain strike through the Side or across the temples like a razor or to put Tho foot into a Vise or throw the whole body into a Blaze of fever. Yet there have been men and women More women than men who have cheerfully endured this hardness. Through years of exhausting rheumatism and excruciating neuralgia they have gone and through bodily distresses that rasped the nerves and Tore the Muscles and paled the Cheeks and stooped the shoulders. By the dim Light of the sick room taper they saw on their Wall the picture of that land where the inhabitants Are never sick. I Brough the dead silence of the night they heard the chorus of the Angels. The cancer ate away her life from week to week and from Day to Day and she became weaker and weaker and every a Good night was feebler than Tho a Good night before yet never sad. The child looked up into her face and saw suffering transformed into a heavenly smile. Those Avo suffered on the Battle Field amid shot and Shell were not so much heroes or heroines As those who in the Field Hospital and in the Asylum had fevers which no ice could Cool and no surgery could cure. No shout of Comrade to cheer them but numbness and aching and homesickness yet willing to suffer confident in god and hopeful of heaven. Heroes of rheumatism heroes of neuralgia heroes of spinal complaint heroes of sick headache Hei Oes of Long invalid ism heroes and heroines they shall reign forever and Ever. Hark i catch just one note of the eternal Anthem a there shall be no More bless god for that Iii this Roll i also find Tho heroes of toil who do their work uncomplaining by. It is comparatively easy to Lead a regiment into Battle when you know that the whole nation w ill applaud Tho Victory it is compar to Cly easy to doctor the sick when you know that your skill will be appreciated by the Large company of friends and relatives it is comparatively easy to address an audience when in the gleaming eyes and flushed Cheeks you know that your sentiments Are adopted but to do sewing where you expect that the employer will come and thrust his thumb through Tho work to show How imperfect it is or to have the whole garment thrown Back on you to be Don Over again to build a Wall and know there will be no one Tho Stoa Mer j to say you did it Well but Only to have a Oan firc Mesisco swearing employer howling across the scaffold to work until your eyes Are dim and your Back aches and your heart faints and to know that if you Stop before night your children will starve a the sword has not slain so Many As the Needle the great Battlo Fields of our last War were not Gettysburg and Shiloh and South Mountain. The great Battle Fields of the last War were in the arsenals and in the shops and in the attics where women made army jackets for a sixpence. They toiled on until they died. I hey had no funeral Eulogi urn but in Tho name of my god this morning i enrol their names among those of whom the world was not worthy. Heroes of the Needle heroes of the sewing machine heroes of the attic heroes of the cellar heroes and heroines mess god for them in this toll i also find the heroes who have uncomplaining by endured Domestic injustice. There Are men who for their toil and anxiety have no sympathy in their own Homes. Exhausting application to business gets them a livelihood but an in frugal wife scatters it. To is fretted at from the moment he enters the door until lie goes out of it the exasperation of business life augmented by Tho exasperation of Domestic life. Such men Are laughed at but they have a heart breaking trouble and they would have Long ago gone into appalling dissipation but for Tho Grace of god. Society to Day is strewn with wrecks of men who under Tho the Northeast storm of Domestic i Felicity have but in driven on the rocks. There Are tens of thousands of drunkards in this country to Day made such by their wives. That is not poetry that is prose. But the wrong is generally in the opposite direction. You would not have to go far to find a wife who is a perpetual Martyr. Something heavier than the stroke of the list unkind words staggering Homo at Midnight and constant maltreatment which have left her Only a wreck of what she w As on that Day when in Tho midst of a Brilliant assemblage Tho vows were taken and full Organ played Tho wedding March and the Carriage rolled away with the Benediction of the people. What was the burning of Latimer and Ridley at the stake compared with this those men soon became unconscious in Tho fire but Here is a fifty years martyrdom a fifty years putting to death yet uncomplaining. No bitter words when the rollicking companions at two of clock in Tho iring pitch Tho husband dead drunk into the front entry. No bitter w ords when wiping from the swollen brow Tho blood struck out in a Midnight Carousel bonding Oier Hie battered and bruised i Oral of him who when to took her from her fathers Home promised Lovo and kindness and Protection yet pvt plug hut sympathy and prayers Aud forgiveness before they Are asked for. No bitter words when Tho family Bible goes Tho he Fth a Pawn Brok is shop gets the last decent dress.

No doubt about it. Hat is the next highest throne in heaven while i speak it seems to my that it will he throne of Tho drunkards wife if she with cheerful patience endure All her earthly torture. Heroes and heroines i find also in this Roll the heroes of Christian Charity. We All Admire the George Peabody and Tho James Lenores of the Earth who gave tens and hundreds and thousands of dollars to Good objects. But i Arn speaking this morning of those who out of their pinched poverty help others of such men As those Christian missionaries at the West who Are living on $250 a year that they May proclaim Christ to Tho people. One of them writing to the Secretary in new York says a i thank you for that $j.�. Until yesterday we have had no meat in our House for three months. We have suffered terribly. My children have no shoes this i Arn speaking of those people who have Only a half a loaf of bread but give a piece of it to others who Are hungry and of those who have Only a scuttle of Coal but help others to fuel and of those who Lave Only a Dollar in their pocket and give Twenty five cents to somebody else and of that father who wears a shabby coat and of that Mother who wears a faded dress that their children May be Well a paroled. of Call them paupers or Ragamuffin or immigrants. I Call them heroes Aud heroines. You and i May not know where they live or what their name is god knows and they have More Angels hovering Over them than you and i have and they will have a higher seat in heaven. They have had Only a cup of cold water to give a poor traveler or May have Only picked a splinter from under Tho Nail of a child a Finger or it Only two mites into the to Masury but the lord knows them. Considering what they had they did More than we have Ever done and their Laded dress will become a White Robe and the Small room will be an eternal mansion and the old hat will be a Coronet of Victory and All the applause of Earth and All the shouting of heaven will be drowned out when god rises up to give his Reward to those Humble workers in his kingdom and to say to them a Well done Good and faithful servants a you have All seen or heard of the ruin of Melrose Abbey. I suppose Iii some respects the most exquisite ruin on Earth and yet looking on it i was not so impressed you May set it Down to taste but i was not so deeply stirred As i was at the Tombstone at the foot of that Abbey the Tombstone placed by Walter Scott Over the grave of an old Man who had served for a Good Many years in his House the inscription most significant and i defy any Man to stand there and read it without tears coming into his eyes the epitaph a Well done Good and faithful servant to when our work is Over will it be found that because of anything we have done for god or Tho Church or suffering humanity that such an inscription is appropriate for us god Grant it who Are those who were bravest and deserved the greatest Monument lord Clave House and his Burly soldiers or John Brown the Edinburgh Carrier and his wife or. Atkins the persecuted minister of Jesus Christ in Scotland was secreted by John Brown and his write and Clave House Rode up one Day with his armed men and shouted i front of the House. John Browne a Little girl came out. He said to her a Well miss is or. Atkins Here a she made no answer for she could not betray the minister of the gospel. A Cha a Clave House said a Theu you Are a Chip of Tho old Block Are you i have something in my pocket for you. It is a nosegay. Some people Call it a Thumbscrew but i Call it to and he got off his horse and he put. It month Little girls hand and began to turn it until Tho Bones cracked and she cried. He said a a done to crr Don t cry done to cry this is not a Thumbscrew this is a nosegay. And they heard the child a cry and the father and Mother came out and Clave House said a Cha it seems that you three have Laid your holy Heads together determined to die like All the rest of your hypocritical canting snivelling Crew. Rather than give up Good or. Atkins pious or. Atkins you would die. I have a Telescope with me that will improve your vision a and he pulled out a pistol. A now who said a you old pragmatic Al lest you should catch cold in this cold morning of Scotland and for Tho Honor and safety of the King to say nothing of Tho glory of god and Tho Good of our souls i w ill proceed simply and Iii the neatest and most expeditious manner to blow your brains John Brown fell upon his Knees and began to Pray. A nah a said Clave House a look out if you arc going to Pray steer Clear of the King the Council and Richard a to lord a said John Brown a since it seems to to thy will that i should leave this world for a world where i can love thee better and serve thee More i put this poor widow woman and these helpless fatherless children into thy hands. We have been together in peace and Good will but now we must look Forth to a better meeting Iii heaven and As for these poor creatures blindfolded and infatuated that stand before me convert them before it be too late and May they who have sat in judgment in this Little place on this messed morning upon me a poor defenceless fellow creature May they in that last judgment find that mercy which they had refused to me thy most unworthy but faithful servant. Amen a he Rose up and said a Isabel the hour is come of which i spoke to you on the morning when i proposed hand and heart to you and Are you willing for the love of god to let me die a 3iie put Lier arms around him and said a the lord gave and the lord hath taken away. Blessed be the name of the lord a a Stop that snivelling a said Clave House a i have had enough of it. Soldiers do your work. Take aim fire a and Tho head John Brown was scattered on the ground. While Tho wife was gathering up in her apron the fragments ments of her husbands head gathering hem up for burial Clave House looked into or face and said a now my Good woman How do you feel now about your Bonnie Man a a ooh a she said a i always thought veil of him he has been very Good to me. I had no reason for thinking anything but Ell of him and i think better of him o what a grand thing it will be in the last Day to see god pick out his heroes and i of ties. Who Are those paupers of eternity trudging off from the Gates of heaven the lord claw Honse and the heroes and those who had seep if1. A crowns and thrones but they pc Tor their own aggrandizement and they have broke the heart of nations. I i r�3af a Arthy but paupers of eternity Wool a be ,0i their eternal despair woe woe woe but there is great excitement in heaven v by those Long processions Why the booming of that great Bell in the Tower it is Coronation Day in heaven. Who Are those rising on the thrones with crowns of school.

A to Are that great multitude on the highest thrones of heaven who Are they Yohy they fed the hungry they clothed the naked they healed the sick they comforted the heart broken. They never found any rest until they put their head Down on the sepulchre. God watched them. God laughed Defiance at the enemies who put their heels hard Down on these his dear children and one Day the lord struck his hand so hard on his thigh that the omnipotent sword rattled in the scabbard As he said a i am their god and no weapon formed against them shall what harm can the world do you when the lord almighty with unsheathed sword fights for you i preach the Sermon this morning in Comfort. Go Homo to Tho place where god has put you to play Tho hero or the heroine. Do not envy any Man his Money or his applause of his social position. Do not envy any woman her wardrobe or her exquisite appearance. Be the hero or the heroine. If there be no flour in the House and you Don t i love where your children Are to get bread listen and you will hear something tapping against the window pane. Go to the window and you will find it is the beak of a Raven and open the window and there will Fly in the messenger that fed Elijah. Do you think that the god who grows the Cotton in the South will let you freeze for Lack of clothes do you think that the god who allowed the disciples on sunday morning to go into the Grain Field and then take the Grain and rub it in their hands and eat do you think god will let you starve did you Ever hear the experience of that old Man a i have been Young and now am old yet have i not seen the righteous forsaken nor his seed begging bread a get up out of your discouragement o troubled soul o sewing women o men kicked and cuffed by unjust employers o be who Are hard beset in the Battle of life and know not which Way to turn o you bereft one o you sick one with complaints you have told to no one come and get the Comfort of this subject.

I How the ghost of Patrick Tracey is exciting the residents of his old Home. Newton mass Cor. Cincinnati enquirer. Several months ago Patrick Tracey a resident of night Cap Corner a sleepy District in the outskirts of West Newton was found dead in an outbuilding Forra ing a part of his estate. It was taken for granted that he died of heart disease. Patrick Tracey a ghost is said to have revisited night Cap Corner repeatedly since the time of his decease hovering about his former Home. Night Cap Corner is in a state of feverish excitement As to Why is so disturbed. It is hinted that he was the victim of foul play. Another reason May be stronger. It is stated that the teams he used were mortgaged and that they have been sold since his taking off under foreclosure. The neighbors have firm Faith that it is a genuine ghost Many persons claiming to have seen it. One woman was passing paths place last night when it is said. Paths form appeared dimly outlined in the darkness and steadily it approached until it was within three feet of the terror stricken woman when suddenly it Sank into the ground. Another Story is that the apparition accosted a Man who was passing through the Yard of paths earthly Home recently and asked him for a drink of water. This is discredited As the deceased was not fond of water while Here below. The spiritual peregrinations Are confined to the door Yards or Vicinity of his late Home where the visits Are frequent. Some pretend to disbelieve the store but Only those who have not seen the ghost. The locality is close on the Border of Charles River not far from Auburndale a place Mystic romantic Beautiful and famed As the country seat of ghosts of All descriptions. A a a a a a a a How the name came to be applied Tai Southern Illinois. Is. It. Dwight in Springfield Republican i was born and raised in Jefferson county Illinois and grew to manhood in the family of my Grandfather governor z. Casey one of the Early prominent men of Southern Illinois. He came to Jefferson county which is a part of Southern Illinois in 1816, while Illinois was yet a territory. Governor Casey was at one time lieutenant governor of the state for a number of years a prominent member of Congress from Illinois and held other important positions. He was fully identified with the state and people up to the Timet of his death which occurred in 1862. I mention these facts to show you that i know whereof i speak. Governor Casey often explained to me in my childhood Why Southern Illinois was called a Egypt a and it was this about the year 1835 i am not certain As to the exact Yea there was throughout Northern and Central Illinois a great Scarcity of Corn while All through Southern Illinois there was a very great abundance As a consequence the following fall and Winter great numbers came Down into a a Egypt As in ancient times the people went Down into ancient Egypt for a like purpose to buy and carry Back Corn to Supply the wants of the people in that part of the state where the Corn crop for that year had been a total failure. The chief product of the state at that time was Corn but Little else was cultivated. It was the Staple article of food both for Man and beast. And thus Southern Illi Noi i came to be called a Egypt a the thick darkness Aud the mice Meyer did
