 well pleased indeed. I confess that, when I sent for it,

 5ay that I think it is all that you have claimed for it. I 
 am not a practical musician myself, but Captain Jessop, 
 (Q who is a good player, pronounces it a very fine instru- 
 gS ment. Let all who would compete for the Prize Organ,

 SINGING FOR JESUS. 
 
 Singing for Jesus, singing for Jesus, 
 
 Trying to serve him wherever I go ; 
 Pointing the lost to the way of salvation — 
 
 This be my mission, a pilgrim below. 
 When in the strains of my country I mingle, 
 
 When to exalt her my voice I would raise , 
 'Tis for his glory whose arm is her refuge. 
 
 Him would I honor, his name would I praise. 
 His name would I praise. 
 
 Singing for Jesus glad hymns of devotion. 
 Lifting the soul on her pinions of love j 
 
 Dropping a word or a thought by the wayside, 
 Telimg of rest in the mansions above. 
 
 Music may soften where language would fail us, 
 Feelings long buried 'twill often restore. 
 
 Tones that were breathed from the lips of de- 
 parted, 
 
 How we revere them when they are no more ! 
 
 Singing for Jesus, my blessed Redeemer, 
 
 God of the pilgrims, for thee I will sing j 
 When o'er the billows of time I am wafted. 
 
 Still with thy praise shall eternity ring. 
 Glory to God for the prospect before me. 
 
 Soon shall my spirit transported ascend ; 
 Singing for Jesus, O blissful employment. 
 
 Loud hallelujahs that never will end.

 There the great trees of life in their beauty do grow,

 For no death ever enters that city you know, 
 
 And nothing that maketh a lie, 
 
 And nothing that maketh a lie.

 Nor vailed by a shadow of night. 
 We'll stay not to drink of the water, 
 
 Nor rest in the valley below ; 
 But cheered by the cross and its banner, 
 We'll sing and be glad as we go. 
 Chorus. — We'll journey together to Zion, 
 The beautiful, beautiful Zion ; 
 We'll journey together to Zion, 
 The beautiful city of God. 
 
 We'll journey together to Zion, 
 
 Where all who are faithful may share 
 A place in the mansion of glory 
 
 Our Savior has gone to prepare, 
 His flock he will feed like a Shepherd, 
 
 And guard them by night and by day 5 
 We'll talk of his goodness and mercy. 
 
 And tell of his love by the way. 
 
 We'll journey together to Zion, 
 
 With rapture we soon shall behold 
 The saints who have reached it before us. 
 
 The prophets and martyrs of old. 
 We'll learn the new song of redemption. 
 
 Which only the ransomed can sing 5 
 Ascribing all honor and glory 
 
 To Jesus our Saviour and King.

 SCATTER SMILES. 
 
 Scatter smiles, bright smiles, as you pass on your way, 
 
 Thro' this world of toil and care j 
 Like the beams of the morning that gently play. 
 
 They will leave a sunlight there. 
 Chqrus. — Scatter smiles, bright smiles. 
 
 Scatter smiles as you pass on your way, 
 Scatter smiles, bright smiles. 
 Scatter smiles, bright smiles. 
 
 Scatter smiles, bright smiles, 'tis but little they cost j 
 
 But your heart may never know 
 What a joy they may carry to weary ones 
 
 Who are pale with want and woe. 
 Chorus. — Scatter smiles, bright smiles, etc. 
 
 Scatter smiles, bright smiles, o'er the grave of the past. 
 
 Where the orphan's treasure lies 5 
 In the tear-drop that glistens, there light will shine, 
 
 As the rainbow paints the skies. 
 Chorus. — Scatter smiles, bright smiles, etc. 
 
 Scatter smiles, bright smiles, o'er the young who have 
 strayed. 
 
 From the path where once they trod 5 
 You may lead to the fountain of truth again. 
 
 You may bring them home to God. 
 Chorus, — Scatter smiles, bright smiles, etc.

 VIC'rORY AT LAST. 
 
 For many years weVe waited 
 To hail the day of peace. 
 When our land should be united, 
 
 And war and strife should cease 5 
 And now that day approaches — 
 
 The drums are beating fast. 
 And all the boys are coming home. 
 There's victory at last. 
 Chorus. — There's victory at last, boys. 
 Victory at last 5 
 O'er land and sea our flag is free j 
 
 We'll nail it to the mast. 
 Yes, we'll nail it to the mast, boys, 
 
 Nail it to the mast. 
 For there's victory, victory, 
 Victory at last. 
 
 The heroes who have gained it 
 
 And lived to see that day. 
 We will meet with flying banners 
 
 And honors on the wayj 
 And all their sad privations 
 
 Shall to the winds be cast 
 For all the boys are coming home. 
 
 There is victory at last.

 At these rates, all money sent for back 
 numbers, and for Premium Pictures, will count 
 the same as though sent for the regular volume. 
 Old and new subscribers will both count alike. 
 You may have six months to complete your clubs 
 if you do not succeed before. 
 
 The reason for this slight change from our 
 former arrangement is, that as our object is to 
 raise large lists of names, we desire to make it 
 to the interest of our patrons not to select the 
 smallest clubs j and by allowing old subscribers 
 to count the same as new, and extending the 
 time for working, we make it easier to raise the 
 required list. 
 
 Those working for the Organ and Melodeon 
 premiums will remember : These Prizes are genu- 
 ine instruments, of very superior merit, and worth 
 a great effort. 
 
 Remit names and money to us, as soon as you 
 have even a few, so that we may begin to send 
 the papers at once. 
 
 With these magnificent offers before you, 
 teachers, young ladies, superintendents, leaders 
 of singing, and pastors of churches, we shall ex 
 pect that many thousands of families, schools 
 ind churches, will secure these beautiful instru- 
 ments at once. 
 
 We can furnish larger, and higher priced or- 
 gans, on like favorable terms. 
 
 If you desire further information, in regard to 
 the instruments, write to the editor of The 
 Little Corporal. 
 
 Let us know when you begin to work for 
 Premiums. 
 
We give below a certificate from Wm. B. 
 Bradbury, the great Music Book publisher, in 
 New York. 
 
 Messrs. Peloubet, Pelton &f Co. — I have examined 
 your Organs with some care, and at different times, and 
 am highly pleased with them. They afford a most excel- 
 lent substitute for a pipe organ in a small church. In- 
 deed, I think I should prefer them to most of the small 
 organs that I have seen that cost much more money. I 
 am particularly pleased with the arrangement of the 
 different Registers, by which each is made to produce ax 
 entirely different quality of tone ; thus closely imitating 
 the organ, while the combinations of those producing 
 the effect of the twelfth and fifteenth I have never seen 
 excelled. The Tremolante is also very effective and 
 pleasing. WM. B. BRADBURY."

 A. L. Sewell^ Ed. Little Corporal. 
 
 Dear Sir : The Prize Organ arrived in due time, 
 and I think, has been pretty thoroughly tested. It gives 
 satisfaction. I am not a judge myself, but an expert, 
 who has tried it, pronounces it a good instrument. Miss 
 Gregg and her pupils are satisfied with it. To her 
 belongs the credit of raising it. 
 
 Yours truly, G. W. NYE. 
 
 Principal "Walnut Hills Union School." 
 
 Three Oaks, Michigan, May z8, 1867. 
 Alfrea L. Sewell — Dear Sir : The Organ which you 
 sent us as a premium, has reached us. I am verj/ much 
 pleased with it. I like the tone and finish. I think it 
 is all that it is represented to be. 
 
 Yours respectfully, LUCY WILCOX. 
 
 Mr. W. A. Bemis, Superintendent of Public Schools at 
 Davenport, Iowa, has written us two letters since one of 
 his schools received their Prize Organ for sending us 
 subscribers. 
 
 In the first letter, he says : 
 Our organ arrived the last day of last term, so we 
 had a kind of festival, or jubilee, or concert, or thanks- 
 giving, or any other proper name you please to call it. 
 It is a very fine instrument, and we are very much 
 obliged to you. It will keep you in our memory for a 
 iong time." , 
 
 In the second letter, he says : 
 We still like our organ very much. ^ It is pronounced 
 by our instrument dealers, to be a fine instrument, and 
 cneap at $150.00. .It adds much to the enjoyment of 
 our school." 
 
 Mrs. L. B. Telford, the wife of a minister in Wash- 
 ington, Pennsylvania, who was formerly a missionary in 
 China, writes us as follows : 
 
 " MR. SEWELL— DEAR SIR : Our Prize Organ 
 arrived on the 4th. We are entirely satisfied with it. 
 It more than meets our anticipation. One of our best 
 music teachers has examined it, and pronounces it a 
 very fine instrument, and is particularly pleased with the 
 evenness of tone. 
 
 " Please accept our thanks and desire for your success 
 in your enterprise.' 
 
 ^ I shall continue to send you subscribers, hoping to 
 get enough to secure another premium."
