That the treasury of the United States slutted with unneedod ^old oppresses industry, embarasses business, endangers tinan- .'ial tramjuility and 'breeds extravagance, .•eutralizatioii and i'orrni>tiom That hi^'h taxation, vital for the expenditures of an aniiaralleled war, is robbery in years of prosperous ponce. That t tie millions that pour into the treasury come from the hardfarned savings of the A neriean people. That in violation of equality of rights the present tariff has created a privileged class who, shapinsr legislation for their personal zain, levy by law contributions for tho necessaries of life from every man, woman and child in the land. That to lower the tariff is not free trade. It is to reduce the ITii^u^CpriifTnriTf liibhTtpViTistrs and boss man - ufaelurers, and allow consumers to retain the rest. Tho man who asserts that to lower the tariff moans fret' trade insults intelligence. 'We brand him as a falsifier. It is furtheivst from thought to imperil capital or disturb enterprises. The aim is to uphold wages ami protect the rights of all. This administration has rescued the publie domain from would-be barons and cormorant corporations faithless to obligations, and reserved it for free homes for this ami coming generations. There is no pilfering. There are no jobs under this administration. Public office is a public trust. Integrity stands guard at every post of our vast empire. While the president has been the medium through which has flowed the undying gratitude of the republic for her soldiers, he has not hesitated to withhold approval from a special legislation if strictest, inquiry revealed a want of truth and justice. Above all, sectional strife as never before Is at an end, and sixty millions of freemen in the ties of brotherhood are prosperous and happy. These are the achievements of this ud ministration. Under the same illustrious leader we are ready to meet our political opponents in high and honorable debate and Blake our triumph on the intelligence, virtue and patriotism of the people, adhering to the constitution, its every line and letter, and rememberiti>r that "puwer* uot delngated to the ITnitod States by the constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively or to the people." By the authority of the democracy of New York, backed by the democracy of the entire union, I give you a name entwined with victory. I nominate Grover Cleveland of Now York. Mr. Dougherty's sjieech w a s received with unbounded enthusiasm. After quiet had been restoren James A. MeKeuzie took the stand to second the nomination of Ci rover Cleveland. Tnero was, ho said, within the broad limits of this great laud but one more popular democrat than d r o v e r Cleveland, and that was the queenly woman ho had made his wife. The white house was presided over by tho uncrowned queen of our republic. He (MeKeuzie) was not Roing to let Mrs. Cleveland out of this campaign. In hoc signo vinces. Mr. Mclyenzio of Kentucky, moved to suspend the rules and to nomiate (irover Cleveland for president by acclamation. The chair put the question and there was returned from tho convention a thundering chorus of ayes. The chair therefore announced that t J rover Cleveland, having received an unanimous vote, was the candidate of the democratic party for the office of the president of the United States. When the nomination of Cleveland was announced by the chairman, another scene of wild enthusiasm occurred iu the convention. On the morning of the third day the committee on resolutions submitted their report, which was adopted. The platform is as follows : The democratic party of the United States, in national convention assembled, renews the pledge of its fidelity to democratic faith, and reaffirms the platform adopted by its representatives in the convention of 1SS4, and indorses the. views expressed by President Cleveland in his last annual message to congress 11s the correct interpretation of that platform upon the question of tariff reduction; and also indorses the efforts of our democratic representatives in congress to secure a reduction of excessive taxation. Chief among its principles of party faith are the maintenance of an indissoluble union of free and indestructible states, now about to enter upon its second century of unexampled progress and renown; devotion to a plan of government regulated by a written constitution strictly specifying every granted power, and expressly reserving to the states or people the entire ungranted residue of power; the encouragement of a jealous popular vigilance directed to all who have been chosen for brief terms to enact and execute the laws, and are charged with the duty of preserving peace, insuring equa'ity and establishing justice. The democratic party welcomes an exacting scrutiny of the administration of the executive power which four years ago was committed to i's trust in the election of Grover Cleveland, President of the United States, and it challenges the most searching inquiry concerning- its fidelity-and devotion to the pledges which then invited the suffrages of <he people. During a most critical period of our financial affairs, resulting; from overtaxation, the anomalous condition of our currency and a public debt unmatured, it has, by the adoption of a wise and conservative course, not only averted disaster but irreatl,v_promoted tho prosperity of the people. It has reversed the improvident and unwise policy of the republican party touching the public domain, ami lias reclaimed from corpora.'ions ami syndicates, alien and domestic, and restored to the people nearly l'pn.nt'o.ooo acres of valuable land, to be sacredly held as homesteads for our citizens. While carefully guarding the interests of the taxpayers and conforming strictly to the principles of justice and equity, it has paid out more for pensions and bounties to the soldiers ami sailors of the republic than was ever paid before during an equal period. Ky intelligent management and a judicious and economical expenditure of the public money it lias set on foot tho reconstruction of the American navy upon a system which forbids 'the recurrence of scandal and insures successful results. It has adopted and consistently pursued a firm and prudent foreign policy, preserving peace with all nations while scrupulously maintaining all the rights and interests of our own government and people at h o n e and abroad. The exclusion from our shores of Chinese laborers has been effectually secured under the provisions of a treaty, the operation of which has been postponed by the action of a republican majority in the senate. Ho{iest reform in the civil service has been ihao>airat.ed and maintained by President Cleveland, and he 1ms brought the public service to the hh/uest standard of efficiency, not only by rule and precept, but by the example of his own antiriim- and unselfish administration of public affairs, In every branch and department of our government under demiH^Trle control the rights- and the welfare at all the people have been guarded and defended, every public interest has been prot< cted. and the equality of all our citizens before the law without regard to race or color has been steadfastly maintained. Upon its record thus exhibited, and upon the pledge of a continuance to the people of benefits of good government, the national democracy invokes a renewal of popular trust by the re-election of a chief magistrate who has been faithful, able and prudent. They invoke, in addition to that trust, tho transfer to the democracy of tho entire legislative power. The republican p.irty controlling the senate, and resisting in both houses of congress a reformation id' unjust, and unequal tax laws, which' have outlasted the necessities of war and are now undermining the abundtion, amounts to more than §13ft,0O0,UO0, and the suplus collected is reaching tho sum of more $ot),000,000 annually. Debauched by thiu immense temptation, the remedy of the republican party is to meet and exhaust it by extravagant taxation. The democratic remedy is to enforce frugality iu public expenditures and abolish unnecessary taxation. Our established domestic industries and enterprises' should not and need not be eudangered by a reduction and correction of the burdens of taxation. On the contrary, a fair and careful revision of our tax laws, with due allowance for the difference between the wages of American and foreign labor, must permit and encourage every branch of such industry and enterprise by giving them assurance of an extended market and steady and continuous operation. In the interest of American labor, which should in uo event be neglected, the revision of our tax laws conteniplated by the democratic party will promoab the advantage of such labor by cheapening the cost of the necessaries of life in the home of every working-man and at. the same time securing him steady and remunerative employment. Upon this question of tariff reform, so closely concerning every phase of national life, and upon every question involved in the problem of good government, the democratic party submits its principles and professions to the intelligent suffrages of the American people. After the adoption of the platform and resolulions, Lieut.-Gov. White of California moved that the roll be called for the nomination of candidates for the vice presidency. It was so ordered. There was no response to the call until California was reached, when Senator Turpey left his delegation, stepped upon the platform, and after a few introductory remarks said : * * * 1 am proud of the privilege of addressing you 1 acknowledge, but that 1 am prouder still of the man whom I shall name 1 will not deny; f o r i feel, sirs, that this republic holds no superior to the lion. Allen G. Thurman of Ohio. * * * Alien G. Thurman! What an epitome of American civil history is embodied in that name. His character and ability are kuown-to every man, woman and child in the laud. His public record* will be a more enduring- monument to his fame than temples of stones or brass, i'or history will inscribe his name among the list of America's illustrious sons. '•• - * Cor-III years he has been a prominent figure in public life, and yet to day no man can poilit to oue single act or expression of his which does not do him credit. Large of heart, large of brain, and larger still iu experience, he is the man of all men whose record justifies his nomination at your hands in the sense that he cannot be defeated before the people. capital is dis- 1 iua!. unjust amended nor •iiiir of a long ponce, deny to tin1 people equality before the law and the fairness and tho justice which- are their right. Thus the cry of American labor for a better share of the rewards of industry is stilled with false pretences, enterprise is fettered and bound down to home markets, turbed with doubt, and vou laws can neither be properly repealed. The,democratic party will continue, with ail the power confided to it, to struggle to reform these laws in accordance with the pledges in it* last platform, indorsed at the ballot-box by the suffrages of the people. Of all the industrious freemen of our land, an immense majority, including every tiller of the soil, gain no advantage from excessive tax laws; but the price of nearly everything they buy is increased by the favoritism of an unequal system of legislation. All unnecessary taxation is unjust taxation. Tt is repugnant to the creed of democracy that by such taxation the coat of the necessaries of life should be unjustly increased to all our people, .fudged by democratic principles, the interests of the people are betrayed when, by unnecessary taxation, trusts ami combinations are permitted and fostered which will unduly enrich the few that combine to rob our citizens by depriving them of the benefit of natural competition. Rvery democratic rule or governmental action is violated when through unnecessary taxation a vast sum of money far he- ,vou<i-tlu!-uw«dH--of uu-ru-wtom-U'ttl -administration is drawn from the people and the channels of trade and accumulated as a demoralizing surplus in the national treasury.

"That the name of Allen G.

The roll call was again proceeded with. Colorado reached, Col. Patterson took the platform to nominate Gen. Black. A letter from that gentleman, asking for the withdrawal of his name on the ground that flie sentiment of the democracy was for Thurman, was read and there was loud cheering when the signature was reached. The roll call was resumed and various seconds of Thurman were made, until Indiana was reached, when Senator Voorhees presented tho name of Isaac P. Gray in a good speech. Georgia seconded it. $ Finally a ballot was reached, and after New York voted solid for Thurman a stampede to him occurred, and he was declared nominated for vice •president In acclamation.

The senate has passed the bill "for ascertainment of the amount due-the Pottawattamie Indians of Michigan cud. Indiana.'"

Power is granted the court to review the entire question of difference de movo without reference t" the act for the relief of certain Indians approved in ISCICI, nor shall it be estopped by the receipt in full given .by the Pottawattamie Indians under the provisions of that ivyoiui ion.

A bill lias been introduced in the senate to amend the fishery "retaliation act"' by striking out tho words "in hi-- discretion,'' and by also striking out the reference to "other products of the Dominion" than fish.

Mark, L u k e and Acts record the fact of the ascension, Matthew stops with the words pertaining to man's duty.

The doubts of the disciples concerning the divine manifestations at the time, leads to our confirmation in faith. For if they were more than convinced and sealed their faith with their bli>od, there i> no ground fcr unbelief on the part of those who have their test irony and example that "all these things are t r u e .

Not a Hospitafl, but a pleasant Remedial Home, organized with A FULL STAFF OF EIGHTEEN PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS, And exclusively devoted to the treatment of all Chronic Diseases, This imposing Establishment vrsis designed and erected to accommodate tho large number of invalids who visit Buffalo from trv>Tv State and Territory, as well as iroiu many forviu-n lands, that they may avail themselves of the professional services of '.ho Staff ui skilled speeiulists iu medicine and surgery that compose, the Faculty of this widely-celebrated institution. NOT ALWAYS NECESSARY TO SEE PATIENTS. By our original system of diagnosis, we can treat many chronic diseases juit as successfully without as with a personal consultation. While we are always glad to see our patients, aud become acquainted with them, show them our institutions, and familiarize them with our system of treatment, yet we have not Been one person in five hundred whom we have cured. The perfect accuracy with which scientists are enabled to deduce the most minute particulars in their several departments, appears almost miraculous. If we view it in the light of the early ages. Take, for example, the eleutro-magnetic telegraph, tho greatest invention of the ago. Is it not a marvelous degree of accuracy which enables an operator to eractbj locate a fracture in a submarine cable nearly three thousand miles long? Our venerable "clerk of the weather" has become so thoroughly familiar with the most wayward elements of nature that he can accurately predict their movements. He can sit in Washington and foretell what the weather will be in Florida or New York as well as if several hundred miles did not intervene between him and the places named. And so in all departments of modern science, • what is required is the knowledge of certain 1 8i(/rv.s. From the*? scientists deduce accurate confl elusions regardless of distance. So, also, in medical science, diseases have certain unmistakable f l i s r i e r i si^ns, or -ymptoms. ami by reason of this fact, we UldLAOu. 1 have been enabled to originate and perfect a system of determining, with the greatest accuracy, nature of chronic disease, without seeing and personally examining our patients. In recognizing diseases without a personal examination of the patient, we elaim to possess no miraculous powers. We obtain our knowledge of the patient's disease by the practical application, to the practice of medicine, of well-established principles of modern science. And it Is to the accuracy with which this system has endowed us that we owe our almost world-wide reputation of skillfully treating lingering or chronic affections. This system of practice, and the marvelous success which has been attained through it, demonstrate the fuct that diseases display certain phenomena, which, being subjected to scientific analysis, furnish abundant and unmistakable data, to guide the judgment of the skillful practitioner aright in determining the nature of diseased conditions. The most ample resources for treating lingering or chronic diseases, and the greatest skill, are thus placed within the easy reach of every invalid, however distant he or she may reside from the physicians making the treatment of such affections a specialty. Full particulars of our original, scientific system of examining and treating patients at a distance are contained in " T h e P e o p l e ' s C o m m o n S e n s e TOedtcal A d v i s e r . " By K: V.

T H E G 1 4 E A T J l ' N E A l ' D I T . The wisest somt'tiuies make mistakes. The most careful housekeeper has been known to spoil a pudding by putting salt instead sugar into it. Let it then he no detraction from the Talberts1 general administrative ability, that the nurse-girl turned out badly. They decided to e n g n g e a n older and sta der b o d y / a n d being perhaps rather erestfa'ieti allowed jviiss Clauson to have a voice in the matter. One morning a quiet looking, pale-faeed woman waited upon them. She heard that a nurse was wanted and ollered her services. Character she had none to give, having been out of service for some years; but plenty of people would speak for her respectability. The i alberts were much taken with her genenil demeanor; but hummed and hawed when they found she did not come red hot from a place. H o r - ace examined her attentively through his eveglass. " H a v e n ' t I seen you before?*' lie asked- " \ \ s , sir. 1 lived many years ago with Mr Meiton of Cavendish Square. You were often at the house." She sa:d her name was Miller and that she was a widow. She spoke well and iu that respectful, but not servile, way which t'ie Talberts liked. If they could britjg themselves to get over the absence of credentials, and deny themselves the pleasure of calling on and cross examining a former mistress, they thought this woman might do. Beatrice had no doubt about it: and upon such inquiries as could be made being answered satisfactorily, Mrs. Miller was installed in the place of the frail falurc whose escapade with the gardner had lowerel the whole moral lone of the establishment But Mrs Miller was a vcrv ditl'erent matter. Miss Clauson found her perfection— nimble-handed, kind, and exnArienced -moreover quite qualhied to ' fulfill the duties of lady's maid when occasion required. VYhittak'er approved of her. She was a coadjutor alter his own respectable heart The iirst one to be considered, the boy, took to her as readily as he had taken to Beatrice. Hor.iee and Herbert, in spite of the sharp lookout they kept for a while. _ could t'nd no t!aw in her conduct, and when tit 1 ho end of two months thev a-eert lined that she had used less soap --four cakes ;e<s than her predecessor had during her short, stay, they began to think they had acquire 1 a treasure " or the child looks as clean as ever.'' said Hcrbeit to Horace. "I always frit sure that that girl left the >oap in the hot wa'er and forgot all about it." The last winter months ami the spring months passed very quietly at Hazlew\ od 1 iou.se.. The Talberts and their jveiee dined occasionally with the best families in the neighborhood, and in return the Talberts asked the best families to dine with them. The seven days' wonder about the boy had almost died away. Kvery one of course felt sure that he was somebody, but no one knew what body. If there was any scandal the serene lirothers heard it nor. It is true that old I.ady Howker. a very important personage, paid them a visit on purpose to tind out all about everything. She had known tho Talberts as boys, go felt entitled to ask t h t m point-blank for an explanation. People: who'TuTvTn;tTowl~volTTiT" a boy are as a rule great nuisance-. She told them she wanted to speak to'them on private business, so Beatrice left the room Then she turned from one to the other of the long-faced men - " ^ ow, Horace, now, Herbert, what is the meaning of this affair? \Vho is the bov von are making such a fuss about?" **l i on't think we ever make fusses," said Herbert in a deprecating way. ''Certainly not," said Horace,' with decision. ' "Well, myst ries then we all want to know who this child really is the child who came in the dead of night w r a p p e d up i u . a n anti-macassar or . something— came bv Piekford's van, I * ' « m t o l d . " •'I w;sh you could tell us Lady Kowk «T. We know no more than you d o . " & " T h a t ' s all nonsense, Horace. I hear y<MJ have engag d a nurse, and that thechild is to stay with you. 1 think you are most inconsiderate." "We are never inconsiderate," said Horace! "Certainly n o t . " said his brother, 4 Yes, you are. You are inconsiderate in not letting at least one safe, discreet person into tho secret. Some one like myself who could vouch for y o u »» " W e dorjt want to be vouched for." "Yes, yon do -I don't see you are any better th >a oth> r people," Lady ' owker was growing cross at their mild obstinacy. "You are most inconsiderate toward Miss Clauson. Here, a week after she comes to live with you, this infant makes its appearance, Of,, course people say you were only waiting until there was a lady at tiazlewoojtf House to look after h i m . " "They say that, do jtheyPl' asked Horace, rellectively. ', •'What el-e can they say? I don't say so; but then I have&uown you so long. I say that you have some excellent reason lor "keeping this child; but you ought to tell one person at lcastwho he really i s . " "Hut we don't know.'1 "Yes you do. Now tell me likegooi! m e u . " They repeated their simple statement adding that the child was kept by Beatrice's express wish; also because they hoped the mystSry would one day bo solved: and because they themselves felt a friendly disposition toward the littl•; waif. ' I don't believe a word tff it, ' said Lady owker rudely, and rising to go. The "brothers i-miled calmly. . "Dear Lady tiowker," said iJ orace, softly, "will you still ask us to dinner occasionally r " "Cf course I shall." "And still honor Hazlewuod House with your pre-ence?" "Yes wi-en you ask m e . " " T h e n , " said Horace, "wo feel that we can hold our own against the w or I if" l.aiy liowh-r drove away in a thorough bad temper; but feeling more certain than ever that the child was somebody. Indi ed, she managed to convey to most people the impression that she was in the secret "Lady Howker is a trill ^ vulgar sometimes," said Horace sadly "She i s , " assented Herbert. It is of course a proud position for a man to hold when he feels he can defy the scandal of a place like * 'akbury, but nevertheless Horace Talbert was much annoyed, and as week after week went by this annoyance was iucreased. He t bought that Herbert should have spoken to h,m. He had waived his objections to keeping the child at Ha/.lewood House, and now that the matter was settled, Herbert ouirht to have told him everything. Faithful to his creed of non-interference he said or showed nothing of the state of his mind until the great -'une audit came round. The great J u n e audit was this We have seen iiow exactly just the brothers were toward one another in the matter of pounds, shillings and pence, so it will be easily understood that the accounts were kept with the most clerkly correctness But this year, wh«n the accounts were submitted to his inspection. Herbert I albert opened his eves with astonishment at one item with which ho was charged, "i don't understand this," he said, laving his linger on one amount which si ,,cl ao-ainst him. Horace, without looking, knew what it was He weighed the matter carefully before he made that particular entry. "1 think 1 have eharged it as low as in justice I could," he said. "But why is it charged at a l l ? " asked Herbert, raising his eyebrows. Now the entry was: Wages of nurse, six months, £.''.' !<s <>(L; estimated keep of nurse and child s'.:; months, say Jj'li His. i d.; total, £:>7 <>s. ' d. " I thought," said Horace slowly - "in fact your manner at various times gave me to understand- that it was just and rigid 1 should make this e n t r y . " Herbert's face grew red. lie was as nearly in a rage as he had ever In en in his life Yet he answered not in words. He took a qu 11 pen and drew a thick ink mark through the entry, thereby giving Horace a morning's work in recopyb. g his elaborate statement and alter. ng the totals. Nothing more was said. Herbert's manifer of denial was more emphatic than words. His brother knew that he would never have disputed a sixpence which he was justly liable to pay. Horace did not apologize for his suspicion; he felt that having allowed Herbert to blot and mutilate his fair balance sheet without a word of protest was more than enough compensation, and no doubt Herbert thought the same, for pea?e was restored, and the matter never again mentioned. "Ab(TuT~Tlirs~rrTn"a^lTi"C itevrSylvarrns- Mordle made a brave resolve. Months ago he had come to the conclusion that Miss Clauson's grav eyes and classical face hail wrought havoc with his heart. After Miss Clauson had been at Ha/.lewood House for a month; the curate knew that a crisis in his fate was approaching. He slapped himself heartily on his broad chest, and told 4ho Kev. Sylvanus Mordle that here was the one maid for him. This, so far as it went was eminently satisfactory'- Unluckily, or luckily, there are two parti s to every bargain, two sides to every hedge, and tho c a r - ate felt sure that the hedge between himself and Miss Clauson was a high one Nevertheless, like a bo'd man, he went to work to climb it or break through it. It was, indeed, high time he took some action in the matter. So one Sundav evening he preached a cri-p, cxhilerating. detonating sermon, in which he showed lis parisioners how right it was t h a t ' a man should choose a helpmeet. He preached it really to encourage himself, but its immediate effect upon his Hock was that on the next Sunday tho bans of marriage between no less than three couples were called: so it must have been a most,convincing discourse. On Monday, he mounted his. tri- j cycle, and, after go^ng his parochial round, drove or propelled himself on tremulous wheels f> Hazlewood House. The " T a h b e s " had driven into Blacktown; but v iss Clauson was in the ba'dc garden. Sylvanus pulled his tricycle aside, so that it should be out of the way of other callers; then went to meet what fate had in afore for him. lJ oor fe low, he breathed a prayer as he crossed the lawn. He had really very little iiope; but he felt he must make his confession before he struck his l a g al ogether. After the first greet'ng, Sylvanus fetched one of those comfortable carpetseated chairs, several of which wero scattered about and sat beside Beatrice. They talked for awhile on ordinary subjects, then, like a man, the curate r e - solved to come to the point. " I wish to say a few words to you, alone, Miss Clauson. Will you walk into the house or the other garden wdh m e ? " She locked surprised, perhaps troubled. " W e can speak here," she said, tailing the nurse to take the child indoors, t h e kissed the little man tend e d •' as he was led away. "You are very fond of the child," said Sylvanus. "Yes, very fond of h i m . " Then she turned her clear gray eyes upon him as one who waited for a promised communication. He knew all was lost, or rather, nothing had been his to lorn. But he went on to the bitter end "Miss Clauson—Beatrice - " he said. " I have come to-day to ask you if you could love me if you will be iny wife " She did not answer. He fancied he hear d her sie.h. but that sigh ^ave him no hope. 'That 1 love you, 1 need not say. You must have s en th::t In my own clumsy fashion 1 must have shown it.*' "I feared it was s o , " said Beatrice dreamily. "Ves. it was always will be so Even as 1 spea-', I sneak with little hope, but at leas: you will hear and believe 1 love y o u . " His voice was so deep and earnest she scarcely recognized it. He looked at her. Her lashes were cast down and tears were forcing their wav through them. " A ill you answer m e ? " lie sa'd ten derly. "I do not insult you by speaking of wealth or rank in the world, if you loved a man you would care little "for that. You w o u l d ' m a r r y the man you loved in spite of all the world " She shivered ri er mouth worked piteou-dv. For a second a w Id. joyful thought ran through the wooer's mind — for a second only. "Do I judire you r i g h t l y ? " he asked. "I think so 'but, oh, Mr. Mordie, I am so sorry for this." <• er accent left no doub genuineness of her T HE GOT THE FISH. regret. wronged him to the greatest .s to the tiad she extent it could noHiave been more real. ^o, like a man, he took lis answer, rose. H His face was pale, but t lun, a man's face, is, so far as color goes, beyond his control. But his manner ami words were his own bond servants. "We can still be friends?"- he jerked out in a very go d imitation of his usual brisk manner. 'M* you wish it," said Beatrice, quietly, almost hum ly. "Of course I w will vou wish ,sh it the bye, pleasant arm. vou does ; she man eves mc a holiday? T am <;o rr> away nett week. France, Switzerland, the Rhine- all the rest of it." Beatrice laid her hand on his "Don't, please, speak like that make me miserable.'» "M serable?" "V»s. Do yon think a woman not feel unhappy when sh>- liu< cannot accept the love of a ;/,ood like yourself? Do you think she be he goes from her side and forgets all that has happened? I don't think I am to blame, Mr. Mordle, but anyway 1 feel miserable." He took her hand. ''No, you are not to blame. I was a fool. Never mind. I am a man also. I really was going away n e ^ week, u n l e s s - w e l l , never mind what. When 1 come b.iek if I am not cured of my folly, I can at least promise that even you will not see any symptoms of disease, (iood bye.'' He turned and left her. Fven m his desolation lie had the grain of com foil that he had not borne himself amiss. [ T O H E C O N T I N U : I > ] - - - • - - * — ^ 1 ^ - » - . - - • - - His Wife Saw the Point.

Wbea the recent disastrous run waa made on the Hot Hprings (Ark.) bank, an old fellow who had come to town with a sack of h*h, stopped on the sidewalk, and in a»- tomahment viewed the excited crowd. "Wliut'b the matter with all these folks?" he asked of a bystander. "Why, the bank ia ubout to break and they want to draw out as much of the money us possible." "If that's tho case I'm in with'em; been looking for somcthin' of this sort for aome tim#s," and dropping his sack of fish be erowded into the bank, fought his way to the cashier's window and said; "Hera C'ap'n, hand her out." '•Hand what outY' "Money. Give me ray share." "What is the amount of your deposit; "Where's your check?" The old fellow did not understand and tho cashier continued: "iiow much mooey did you put in here?" "Didn't put none in. What do you tako me furf Thought it waa a sorter free fight." "Stand aside, old man!" "Hold on. If the government is busted, why don't you divide up?" Say, gimmo ten dollars an' I'll call it squar1." Ue was thrust aside, and finding himself. near the door, he thought of his fish and hurried to the place where he had left them. The sack was gone. " Whar's dem fish?" he exclaimed, turning to a cripple, who, with a ghastly expression, leaned on his crutches. " I don't know." "Yes, you do know. Bet you ran away with 'em.' " I look liae running away with any thing." sighed the poor fellow. "V\all, it ain't your fault if you don't, an' if you wasn't a cripple I'd whale you. Any body seed a sack o' fish*" he cried, and. rushing into the street, he accused nearly everyone ho met.

Her father had paid over :<!(Ki for doctors' lulls, still she was failing. She had the worst countenance that I have ever seen, a kind of greenish yellow; she was emaciated, had constant bowel trouble, and had to take morphine every nisjht in order to sleep at all. All who saw her thought she would die. Her parents said they had done all they could. I repeatedly urged them to try Zoa-Phora, but they were strongly prejudiced against "nostrums." Finally the mother said. "We must do something, and this is as likely to help her as anything." She and I persuaded the father to let the girl try it. As a result, in four months heifunctions were established aud regular, and in six months she was the picture of health 7-a living wonder to all who had known her. I could describe 'JO other cases, not as wonderful as this, but still very remarkable li *t. and thought she was beautiful. One evening they were talking about their respective letter halves, and 1'iowii remarked: "I say, .Ti nes, I think you and I married the two prettiest women in town.

We glean the following from the Christian Advocate: Rev, Wesley Hagadorn was born in 1838,. and was a native of Xew Hampshire. He was received on trial into the Detroit conference in the fall of 1861,' the session being held in the Woodward avenue church in this city. Among his classmates were W. H. Shire, George Stowe, A.

At the conference of 1863, in Romeo, Bishop Sinn peon presiding, he was admitted into, lull connection and ordained deaero. That tall he went to Gsociricli. In 1864 he was appointed to Hadiey and Goodrich. At the conference held at Flint 'he fallowing autunan, Bishop Clark presiding, he was ordained to the otfic* and work of an elder.

At the conference of 1882, held at Central church, Detroit, he was granted superannuated relation. Rev. Hagadorn was twice married.

In the later part uf Jul v. 1ST0, the Kranco- Pruasian w a r was at its hiyrht, and t h e now dead emperor, then in command of t h e third German army, :200,0()0 men in all, was repulsing the French at Weissenberg. Ho crossed swords with C a n r o b e r t a n d Mae Mahon, and defeated them, as much by superior force, however, as by superior tactic*. At Kedau he was leading against MacMahon's forces, and by a skillful movcorosseii the River Mouse. On Sept. 20,1870, he was in Versailles and began the investment of Paris, which occupied him until the peace of Versailles was concluded. The late emperor was married 30 years ago in the Princess Victoria Adelaide, daughter of Queen Victoria, a woman of more than ordinary brilliancy. T h e marriage was opposed by Prince Bismarck and by Von Moltke, who did not quite fancy t h e close union with England which it involved. As a result she has had a hard time of it in Germany, even her sou doing her grave insult by his contemptuous references to his English extraction when called on to speak in public Bismarck and she were mortal enemies, and the opinion had been enter taiuod that she would rind a way to crush the pnwer of the chancellor and hisold field marshal' if sufficient length of life were sparc-i her imperial husband.

During 1he4llness of the emperor the- emprvss insisted o:i having Dr. Mackenzie, the distinguished Scotch surgeon, attend him, in preference to tho German court physicians. This caused a great storm of abuse to break against her, but she kept her doetor, ai.d he kept her husband alive lung enough to make him an uccuwaut of tho throne and her the dowager empress of Goniiiiiiy. with immense allowances from •the st Ate.

His hatred of Russia is no less bitter than that of France. During the last. .V) years, and especially since tlrt: creation of tho empire, the relations between Prussia, Germany and Russia have been regulated to i certain degree by the family relationships existing between the two ruling families Kaiser William's sister w a s the wife of Czar Nicholas. The late empress was a princess of Darmstadt. The kaiser was the grand uncle of the czar, It w a s always the conviction that war with Russia'would never take place as long as the old emperor was alive. But Prince William knows nothing of sentiment. His boon companions are the crown prince of Austria, a young gentleman morally us disreputable as himself, and young Count Herbert Bismarck. Prince William is well educated, however. He was carefully trained as a boy. He received private instruction in the classic languages, mathematics, physics^ relig^ ion, gymnasticsT Ho wasl.heu sent to the gymnasium at Cassel. where he passed his examination for the university with credit. He was then sent to Bonn, where he studied diligently. The prince's latest military rank was colonel commander of the hussars of tho guard. Ho is very populav with the army, and doubtless has the capacity of a gveat general. From nil reports he is very anxious to have an opportunity of proving himself as his grandfather wished him to be, a second Frederick the Great. At present, however, h e is only a reckless, hot-blooded soldier, continually getting into scrapes. But the old kaiser was very fond of him, nevertheless. Ho married on Feb. 27. 1881, Princess Augusta Victoria of Schleswig- Holstein, to whom, however, he has not been a model husband. '•y The Great Controversy.

BEAHETT, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR lnnckney, Michigan. Tfluraaay, June «1,1888. Washington Letter. From Oar Correspondent. WASHINGTON, J U N E 19th, 1889, The past week was called a n u n u s - ually dull one on Capitol Hill because so many Senators and Eepresentatiyes were absent, attending the St. Louis National Convention. T h e House, or r a t h e r all that was left of it, struggled along niaafully with t h e tariff bill most of the time, a n d the Senate managed to pass about three hundred measures. < This last sounds marvelous, b u t I will have to confess t h a t most ot these bills were private pensions. I t required considerable powers of application to hold t h e Congressmen quietly a t their desks when buletins from St. Louis were being posted every lew minutes in t h e corridors. A n d finally when the names of Gray, Black and T u r b a n h a d all been placed before that body, a n d it was t h o u g h t a contest would ensue, t h e interest became uncontrolable intensified. As the nomination of the "red bandanna1 was seconded by State after State, it becoming apparent t h a t t h e work of the Convention was rapidly coming to an end, then the reading of a telegram announcing the choice of the convention, Congress broke into a scene of the greatest confusion. Old Democrats a n d young, tariff reformers and Randallites were all on their feet in an instant cheering lustily for the "Old Koman" a n d Clevel a n d ; nor would t h e scene have been complete without the waving of t h e red bandanna which had been a conspicuous article of dress in the House for several daysi W i t h but very few exceptions Democratic Congressman express themselves well satisfied with t h e nominations and platform. Since the nomination of M r . Thurm a n red bandannas flame out all over the city. To enthusiastic Democracy, it is the oriflame of war, a n d the insignia of party principale. A promin e n t local dealer told your correspondent last night that he aad telegraphed an order for 500 dozen ot them as soon as it became certain that T h u r m a u •would be nominated, a n d had received information from his jobbing . firm that similar o'rders were pouring in from all over the country, and that 5,000,000 red bandannas would be on m a r k e t before the middle of July. Looms arc already r u n n i n g night and day to meet the demand. As a United Sta/tes Senator, Mr. T h u r m a n was a friemi\)f the people of the District of Columbia. Irrespective of their political learnings, they are glad to see him honored. Their comment upon the nomination is t h it proposes his candidacy for asjwsitijon far lower than h u desert. A Washington editor says the De^ao cratic party deserves a kind word for the excellent precedent it has made in c u t t i n g down the length of its platform. The platform of 1888 is only a little more than one-third as long as t h a t of 1884, and consequently three times as. readable. Instead of wasting columns of space w i t h / h i g h sounding p h r a s e s the St. Louis Convention addressed itself t o / b u s i n e s s , reviewed briefly what it/considered the strong points in the administration of President Cleveland, drew the line between the parties on the tariff question, and stopped before saying much more than was necessary. Said he: 'Tf the Republican party will follow suit, and the candidates on both sides will write correspondingly short letters of acceptance, the newspapers and the public will be grateful,1' and, your correspondent adds, the people will read what they have to say. Another Washington editor who is not so well pleased says: "The most noticeable feature of the St. Louis swaddle yclept a platform is its conspicuous lack of any allusion to Civil Service reform, the Prohibition question, the Administration's Fish Treaty, or relief from the I n t e r n a l Revenue w.ir lax." At the present writing General, Sheridan's condition is the same, no belter, nn worse, a n d his physicians -ay it is impossible to predict, the . k't*4ure course of his c&.>«, Rumors are c u r r e n t that Secretary Whitney is goinc to resign soon, both on account of his health and his private business. It is not pro (table however t h a t he will leave t h e Cabinet at the beginning ot a P r e s i d e n t i a l campaign. He will most likely retire next March. I t has been understood for some time that it would be agreeable to him to be relieved of his present duties. The President has signed the bill providing that pensions heretofore or hereafter granted to widows ot soldiers of the wa'r of the Rebellion shall commence a t the date of the death ot their husbands. This legislation favorably effects all claims of widows of the late war, which have been tiled in the Pension Office on or after J u l y 1st, 1888, and which have been allowed to commence from the date of the filing of the claims. It will not favorably affect the cases of such widows as were filed befor« J u l y 1st, 1880, and which have alreadv been allowed. Electric Hitters.

The number of bushels of wheat reported marketed in the State in the ten months, August—May, is 12,859,457. It it safe to estimate tbe amount purchased at elevators and mills from which reports have not been received each month at 250,000 bushels, making a total of 13,109,000 bushels as the total amount marketed since August 1. These figures warrant the statement that on June 1, there was not to exceed 1,900,000 bushels of the 1887 wheat crop in farmers1 bands in excess of their own requirements. By tbe estimates of correspondents the amount in farmeis hands is only 1,325,000 bushels. The total number" of bushels of wheat reported marketed during the* month •of May is 529,794, of Which 164,526 bushels were marketed in tbe first or southern tier of counties; 99.513 bushels in the second tier; 22,060 bushels in the fifth and sixth tiers; and 2,102 bushels in the northern counties. At 58 elevators and mills, or 17 per cent of the whole number from which reports have been received, there was no wheat marketed during the month. An average of about four per cent of the corn planted failed to grow. The loss from this cause, however, ID some localities was much greater. In condition oats average 95 and barly 95. Meadows and pastures have suffered severely, the average condition in the southern counties being 77 and in the central counties 83. Clover sowed this year is 96 in each section as compared with 72 ^f the southern and 82 in the central counties on June i, 1887. Apples promise in the southern counties #8 per cent, in the central 97 per cent, and in the northern 95 per cent, ot dn average crop; aftd peaches in {he southern counties promise 82 per cent, and in the central counties 89 per cent, of ah average crop. These estimates of our regular correspondents arc fully confirmed by reports from1 fruit specialists published below. in the southern counties the wages per month of farm hands average I1G.72 with board, and $23.70 without board; in the central counties $16.83 witn board, artd $25.72 without board, arid in the northern counties $18.98 with board and $29.08 without board. Iri the' southern and central counties the wa«*s are a fow cents higher than in 1837, while In the northern counties there is a slight reduction. The farm statistics of .904 townships, collected by the supervisors, have been received. The number of sheep sheared in these townships in 1887 was 1,710,487; pounds ot wool, 10.304,436: average per head, 6 and 2-hundredtbs pounds. The number ot sheep MX months old and over in the same townships in May of the present year was 1,674,44-1 Thiw is decrease ot 34,644, or 2 per cent, of the number sheared last year.

The Brighton Argu3 says: "Friday morning—about 2 o'clock, long after Brighton citizens had yielded to tbd claims of Old Morpbeous and were1' wandering through that oft visited/ visionary country—Dreamland—they were suddenly awakened by sweet strains of music floating on the srtill night air. Had all been translated like Enoch of old? and was this the music of Heaven? or were we in fairy land? Such were one's halt-asleep, half-awake musings. It was delightful, but the musicans were unknown. I noticed that many persons who patronize creameries are surprised fa note the ditferenence in the butter per cent, day by day at their dairies, and that without corresponding increaseor decrease of the milk. A chemist lately told me that he took a cow, fed . and cared for her as near alike, day after day, as possible, so that uniformity of .yield would exist, and while the production of milk would only differ A -few ounces at most, the butter yield; a«f demonstrated at the laboratory; would show a variation of quite onethird in 24 hours. Where the Cream* of three or four days is mixed, aa average is established that obscures! this fact; but wh*re the test is applied every day, and the patron is not aware ot thi* variation, there might be "unpleasantness." To find if this was not a one-day's accident the test ran through months, and yet showed *a daily variation from supposed uniformity, not only with one cow, but a herd tested individually.—John Gould*.

Many a atroug, well-built man leaves riMincj to-day; before uight he will have u chill n:id in a few hours will be dead? This in the way the dreaded pneumonia takes people off. Th•» list of notable m t u who ure its victi-' is is uppailing. I s w c j n over the hind like a scourge und destroys poor und rich alike. Klvery on^ dreads it. Its IMUIIII^ is sud den. its termination usually speedy. Whutt causes i t ' Pneumonia, we are told, i9 invited by u certain condition of the system, iridic ited if mi'.! li.tH occasional chills aud fevers, atoii'I- ney to cold in the throat aud lungs, iVie.uiitie and u"uralgic pains, oxt ratio Lr«\t feelings, s'jort breath and pk"irit:<; sucacs in !-:e side, loss of appetite, bjurgu •.!<', nervous unrest, scalding sensations, or scaur and discolored tluids. heart liutterin rs, s.jur st uiiac i. distressed look, puffy eye sax's, hot aiM dry skins, loss of streatrth und virility. Tuese indications may not appear together, they niu.y come, disappear aud reappear for years, the person not realizing t h a t they are nature's warning of a coming calamity. In other words, if pneumonia does not claim as a victim the person having such .symptoms some less sudden but quite ay fatal malady certainly will. A celebrated New York physician told the Tribune that pneumonia was a second ary disorder, the exposure and cold bem/,' •simply the agjnt which develops the disea »>', already dormant iu th* system, because the kidneys have been but partially doing their duty. In short, pneuinouia is but an early indication of a bright's diseased condition. This impaired action may exist for years without the patient suspecting it because no pain will be felt in the kidneys or their vicinity and often it can be detected only by chemical and microscopical observations. •* Nearly 150 of the 740 deaths in New York city the first week in April (and in six weeks 781 deaths) were caused by pneumonia. The disease is very obstinate, and if the accompanying kidney disorder is very far advanced, recovery is impossible, for the kidneys give out entirely, and the patient is literally suffocated by water. The only safeguard against pneumonia is to maintain a vigorous condition of the system, and thus prevent its attacks, by using whatever will radically and effectually restore full vitality to the kidneys, for If they are not sound, pneumonia cannot be prevented. For this purpose there is nothing equal to Warner's safe cure, a remedy known to miliions, used probably by hundreds of thousands and commended as a standard specific wherever known and used. It does not pretend to cure an attack of pneumonia, but it does remove the cause of and prevent that disease if taken in time. No reasonable mau can doubt this if he regards the personal experience of thousands of honorable men. When a physician says his patient has either bright's disease or pneumonia he confesses his inability to cure, and, in a measure, he considers his rcsjionsibility ended, in many instances, indeed, persons are reported as dyingof pneumonia, heart disease, apoplexy and convulsions, when the real cause of death aud so known by the physician is this kidney consumption. Thousands of people have it without knowing it and perish of it because their physicians will not tell them the facts ! The same fate awaits every one who will not exercise his judgment in s^uch a matter. A realistic raspberry in bright garnets is shown among the heads for new bonnet pine.

A COLLECTION of great men's chairs recently sold in London was interesting. The plainest of all was a little, stiff armchair of oak, said to bo that in which Shakespeare wrote.

Walter Savage Landor had a huge curule of rough oak, with stout arms. Byron's chair was a handsome Louis XIV. chair, well stuffed and covered with red Utrecht velvet. P H O T O G R A P H Y is gaining prominence in the criminal Courts. With its help a Berlin merchant was lately convinced of crooked ways in keeping his accounts. The slightest differences in color and shade of inks are made manifest in tho photographic copy. Blue inks appear nearly white; brown inks, on the contrary, almost black. The books of the accused were subjected to a photographer, who took off tho pages concerned and brought into Court the most undoubted ocular proofs of tho illegitimate after entry of some of the accounts. A subsequent chemical teat substantiated this evt' dencc. The photographic is to be p r e - ferred to the chemical test, because it brings its proofs into the Court, and submits them to inspection, at the same timo leaving tho document under examination unharmed; whftfe th» results of a chemical test must bo taken on tho evidence of tho chemist alone, and the writing examined is perhaps destroyed. Ln another case similar to the above the changing of the date of a note by an insignificant erasure and addition was proved by means of photography.

A large Kdison plant has recently been placed In the Palace of the Mikado, at Toklo, veiv large building, or la'her a c'uster of buildings, connected by corrdors and covering several acres. A :-smiill American urc-liizht plant Is also used in connection with the Edlpon plant to Illuminate the palace grounds. The Chinese •<h> not. take hold of the improvement ui readily as the Japs, but are beginning to see its advantages. The Coroans are ready to adopt all modern Idea*, particularly if they •come from the United States. The Palace of th* King of Corua has a plant of 3)0 lights, and was first illuminated ou the birthday of the King's mother-in-law, on the tWth of February, with great ceremony. The Kngllah are lueessjiit in their endeavors to open a trade route from India to China. One of the preliminary steps to reach this object is tho 'establishment of a laliroau from, the Valley of tbe Brahmapootra to the upper -part of the Irrawadl, by which means they e\|>ect Jo strengthen their position In Burman. The region to be traversed Is cxtre- 1 tuely mountainous, and the road will hava to "~ cross the Patlcot Mmnxtoirrsr- At the present time the trade between China and Burrnah j i carried on by caravans, consisting of from two hundred two thousand animals, which cross the range during the drv reason ; I. e., i etween the months of November and May. They cross tho territory of the lvachins, who expect heavy payments from them: nevertheless, the caravans are subject to frequent attacks, and must he protected by nn escort of armed men. The critical predicament in which the 1,701 inhabitants of Rodrigucs found themselves awhile ago Is not often paralleled. Roclrlgucs is a little island ra. the Indian Ocean, with as .area of only 120 square miles. Owing to a violent hurricane, followed by a prolonged drought, the grain and potato crops were almost it total failure. Rice was the solo support of life, and the supply was rapidly getting exhausted, when a public meeting was called, and it was resolved to seud a boat to Mauritius, four hundred miles nwav. Four men volunteered to undertake tlie perilous vovaije. They narrowly escaped destruction In tho stormy sea, hut at last thay reached Mauritius, and 1,1100 bags oi rice were at once pent In steam-tugs to the -mfTertng people, who were found almost o;i the brink of starvation. It Is not long ago that the" peop'.o of the oceanic specks known as the Keeling Islands peliti uicd the British Government to give them cable communication with the world. The Islanders on Rodrlgues, who are British colonists, would undoubtedly like to have a cable also It further failurej ot cioyi arc impending. A RACY BOOK.

The supposition is that it wa.« the work ot some disgraced young lady, and was either cast into the water last winter through the ice or some time this spring1, in either case according to good "authority it would be difficult to ascertain, as there had probably lx±en an anchor to the other end of the rope, and decomposition from natural causes would be slow a t any considerable depth of water. T h e ^ash in the head evidently had been the cause of death, a n d the sinking ot the body was to hi le t h e crime. An inquest was held, and the child was buried with little ceremony.

Xadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel: UJ. And they saw tin; (lad of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and a« it were the body of heaven in his clearness. 11. And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand; also they saw Cod, and did eat and drink. 12. And the Lord said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there; and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayst teach them. G O I . D E * T E X T . — I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people. The events of the present lesson took place soon after the giving of the law, which was Just fifty days after the first Passover; according to chronology on the margin of our Bibles, Hyi B. C. Troy according to ancient history was founded about this date, and Athens was less than 100 years old. Egypt was under the rule of the Menephtah (son of Itameses II). The place was the plain of about 400 acres in front of Sinai which rises b.SiO feet above the sea and from the plain in a precipitous cliff 2,900 feet. The book is named from its leading event '"the Exodus: '' a description of the going out of Israel frcm Egypt: a company estimated at 2,000,000 people (Numb. 1:4«). Moses is the acknowledged author (B^x.24:4, and Mark 12:26, Luke 20:37). The minuto details of the journey, and the customs of the day prove the book to have been written by an eye witness. Beginning with the 22d verse of the twentieth chapter of Exodus and continuing through three chapters are given a series of laws divinely delivered to Moses, which being committed to writing were known as the Book of the Covenant. The enactments contained in these three chapters-number seventy and are a very wonderful condensation of the essence of The law, embracing the more imjiortantinatters which Moses put forth during the'following forty years' pilgrimage. "The Book of the Covenant was the practical application to daily life of the great moral principles of the ten commandments.'' While Israel was a numerous people, it was not w nation: for it had no formulated laws of government, until given its code by miraculous revelation. The lesson is naturally divided into three parts: 1st. Covenant relations divinely proposed; '2d, Covenant relations humbly accepted: :td, Covenant relations ratified and enjoyed. V. 1, 2. Andhe said unto Moses. Thatis God said unto Moses, "since the people fear lest they die. at my presence, bringunto me chosen representatives: Aaron who was made the tirst hitrh-priest of the nation, Xaadjuration being in effect: "as the body of this victim i» cloven asunder, as the blood of this animal is poured out, so lot my body be divided and my blood shed, if I prove unfaithful or perfidous.—Bush. V. It. Then went up Moses and Aaron, etc., as described in verse 2. The object Wt'S two-fold : 1. A sacrificial meal always followed upon u sacrifice; and the elders doubtless desired to partake of this as near the divine Presence as should be j>ermitted. 2. God would impress them with a sense of his awful majesty and beauty and would manifest hiinseif to them in some wonderful way as they wen: partaking of tho solemn meal,- I'ulpit, Commentary. They wei'e given this divine fight to strengthen their faith, to enlarge their minds and give them i:i.\v views of God fitting them more i'ullyjio be true leaders in Israel. V, K). And they saw Cue God of Israel. As to tho form we are not told and since we find reth-eiiee of d< serinUo:., it behooves us to pal correspond ir.' restraint upon our conjectures.• -Young The soul has eyes. I Th-u'C are hours no registered by the clock: I there are bir.hdays for which tho calendar i provides no liir-of enti;.. Tho attempt in 1 made to illustrate a heavenly picture by material description. Kvery heart has its own imago or parable or symbol by which it sets forth to itself the best aspect of its supreme delight. "As it were the body of heaven in hiu clearness. When we try u> repj-esent God, we naturally turn to the heavens: no earthly object will suffice; we want the broad brilliance of noon-day or the tender glory of the midnight." There' is verily a natur al religion, but it U a poor ue'ty that can be set forth in clay, ii'un o r e w e i l stone - Parker. V. 11. And upon the nonic; 01 the children of Israel he laid not his hand. While they were sinful men in nt-a." relation to divine purity, God did not chastise them or lay his hand upon them; but they ate and drank receiving no harm from the amazingmanifestation. The word translated " s a w " in this verse is not th" sam" a; that in the 10th. The former indicates ocular view, the latter carries with it spiritual perception which was enjoyed by holy or inspired men in Btate of supernatural ecstaey.—Bush. Wo are to understand, therefore, that they were privileged to enjoy nearness of communion and friendship with the divine. To "cat and drink" in his presence symbolized the privilege of every pious Israelite, sheltered in God's mercy and living in faith on his words of grace: "perfect love casting out fear." V. 12. Come up to me into the mount After the sacrificial meal in which the seventy- four persons engaged, Moses received a second summons. Before his departure he arranged with the elders that in his absence Aaron and Hur should judge in Israel concerning ail doubtful questions. He then went up the mountain, sv.-eomp.inied a part of the way by Joshua (v. IS), who remained with him six days while Muse* awaited the summons, which came on the seventh day. to enter the cloud. For forty days Moses dah and Abihu hiS sons, and seventyof the elders of Israel. " leadintr men of the tribes, heads of families, influential persons, born chiefs. These seventy with Nadab and Abihu giving a representation of six freinoaeh of the twelve t rines. These were to come, near, as compared with the distance of the masses, but they were to ascend the mountain to a certain height only, remaining as it were "afar off" while Moses alone was to approach near unto the Lord. The majesty and holiness (>f d d werethus most forcibly impressed upon tho people. V. .'f. And Moses e.une and told the people. H a v i n g received the commands of God he returned and told the people id" the laws, commands and promisi s. of blessings if they proved obedient; with all the judgments, laws and statutes by.which to decide questions of right and wrong. This was the divine proposal of terms of a ivati, mal covenant to be ratified if accepted with "solemn ceremonies. And all the people answered with one voice, unanimously accepting the' compact, declaring their allegiance to God. promising to obey him and acknowledge his supreme authority; God assuring them of his loving care and protection upon their fulfillment of the reasonable eruditions. As with Israel, so with the heirs of the Lord .lesus there is a covenant relation; God sent his Son as an atonement for sin. promising to accept and save those who comply with the divinely instituted means of salvation. V. 4. And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord that there be no mistake, that they might be transmitted to posterity. These words or characters no doubt were those in part which Ezra re-wrote ov revised : somewhat as the King James' version of tlie Bible was prepared from the original MSS.. substituting modern words, for those whose meanings might be obscure by reason of antiquity. And they builded an altar under the hill or mountain of Sinai, as n representation of God, the twelve pillars representing the twelve tribes of people. The Lovitieal priesthood not having been instituted, chosen young men were appointed to offer the burnt sacrifice as a ratification ceremony. Tho burnt offering was a sign of expiation and was fully consumed; the peace offering was indicative of man's gratitude for mercies received. Both were offered together to mark Israel's thankfulness for being taken into covenant relation with God, and was also a sign of consecration to his service. By this, peace was made between God and man, for all who would bring that sacrifice : a'ctt-M-^-f^^ a n ^ *d>v *1, o u *u s altar. The people were thus taught the need of sacrifice.— Bush. V. 0. And Moses took half of the blood, and put ii in basins; and half of the blood ho sprinkled on the altar. This was enacted in the presence of the congregation as a sign of God's promised faithfulness in fulfilling his covenant agreement: the conferring of all blessings which their corresponding fidelity would entitle them to expect. And Moses read to them from the book of tho covenant, thus were the words twice repeated, and twice they solemnly vowed to fulfill; in other words, they took ujKm themselves tho oath of allegiance to God. V. S. And Moses sprinkled the blood upon tho people. Upon the representatives o& the tribes probably, as their acceptance of a compact scaled with blood. Tho form of was taught of God. inscribed on stone b\ .\io commands were the ••finger" of God. to be authenticate 1 and honored above Unjudicial or ceremonial law. •'Which I have written." were words not spoken by the voice, but written by the hand' of God to have neculiur authority. During these days M >ses received the civil and religious laws which were to guide Israel in becoming a distinct, successful and prosperous people. sruoKsTr.n TiioronTs. We must not judge the acquisition of others by the meanness of our spiritual results. Do not blame Moses for his rapture but.blame ourselves for lack of it. I t i s the characteristic of Bible teaching that it wants clean hands, large hearts, noble thoughts, sweet patience and complete sacrifice. These having in them the pledge of final and eternal resurrection. Moses was called to a solitary vision and communion. "Aaron. Nadab and Abihu and seventyof the elders" were not called 'to the summit as Moses. This is time to dhy. The toiis of the mountains are not peopled like the valleys. We must not deny the visions of the mountain if we have nev erclimbed.it. It is always the one mar, who sees tirst. hears most r'.earlv and is given special utterance. Many at the dawn go up the heights and pledge themselves before they go down to do life's rough work 111 the valley or market.*; place. To those far from God. he seems envoi 1 ped in clouds and darkness; to those most near he reveals himself in glory, and they partake of bis peace and beauty. "The pure in heart sh;Ul sec God." Kememher that it is not. privilege which . saves. Two of the men who ascended the mountain and beheld the vision, failed to keep their hearts staid on God and perished /' for ther disobe lieiice ; and the^seventy eld/^j ers were very soon found grovelling before the golden calf. The blood was lirst applied to tl e altar, showing that God is first to enter into compact fer the good of Israel. In all ages God is represented as not only ready* but waiting to be gracious—-"Ye would hot.'1 -.'Great manifestations of divine glory follo\ v>d, the mutual covenant agreement. Many a convert can inw testify to the di vino joy ami peace experienced when he first accepted thc^divine conditions of salvation. •'All the words whh'Kddie Lord hath said will we do," poor weak humanity; for be it remembered that every voiee^whieh enunciated that vow of fidelity, perisfhed in the wilderness because of disobedienee:\Thcvow must by persistent endeavor become bone and sinew or we too will fail in fulfill-'"^ ing our obligation and the right to claim the promises. God first comes down to his believing children, but later he culled to them "come up higher." It may be to ascend t h r o u g h dark clouds, thuuderings and lightning, but he whose heart is sfciyod ou God, nnquestioningly goes. High attainment of any sort means isola tion from the masses. " Moses alone approached closest to his Lord. We must ali choose between lower companionships and oneness with God. Fasting is a sign of sorrow, eating a n d drinking symbols of joy. There are times to fast, there are times to eat and drink. Godliness eonsistotk not in either, a s acts alone, but whether we fast or whether we engage in festivity, in whatever we do. may we do all to the glory of God.

OoijKKN TKXT.—Little children, keep yourselves from idols.—1 John 5:21. Aft mentioned in the last lesson. Moses wa* called to ascend alone the mountain heights, where he remained for forty days. Here he was divinely enlightened concerning future duties, the erection of the tabernacle, the appointment of the priesthood and the services of the sanctuary. At the conclusion of this course of instruction, he received a divinely written book of the law, its pages of stone. The time, so short to Moses, its hours fully occupied with new attainments of knowledge, w a s loug to the surging multitude in the plain below. Be it remembered that within a short time. Moses remained hidden in the mountain as many days ns he had been with Israel. Only fifty days after their departure from Egypt was the law promulgated from Sinai and seven weeks in all was Moses absent with the Lord. It was very natural Israel should have mis udvings. The people had been dazed by the swiftly succeeding miracles; but to the human eye. new. it looked as if they, had been led out of Egypt into the wilderness to perish far from the promised land. Enemies hedged them round about in the mountains; and in the weary days of suspense, eventhe miraculous manna assumed to them ah appearance of commonness. Possibly some, wise cues ventured the .affirmation that this-food was the natural product of the- country, with which only the God of nature had todo, and it waa liable to fail. The absence was necessary to Moses as u season of religious experience ; it was also needed by Aaron to teach him his weakness and how unlit. h<- was for the responsibility of oftiee of high priest. lie. who was to offer atonement for others, v."as a siiuifr in need time of testing for the Mothers as Wnflfe-Earnoi's. Tor years the world has been on a mora; crusade against the employment of children in mines and facrories. while the fai greater evils that result from the mothergoing out as wage-earners have attnv-ted comparatively little attention. Labor, within certain limits, is pood for the child, giving.it a wholesome moral discipl'ne. j and training it for the business by which | it is to earn irs livelihood; but, when a | married woman has t> neglect her natural j du ies for the responsibilities that proper I I Iy belong to the other sex, it is time foi ' i humanity t > protest in the name of her o.,spring.

They /had just taken the oath of allegiance to God in the presence of wonderful displays of divine power. They were not aware of tl.'ir weakness and lack of discipline. In their unsettled condition they summoned Aaron. This was an opportunity of a lifetime for Aaron, but he was unequal to it. When the people clamored for a visible image of Jehovah he indulged them. To satisfy in a measure his own conscience, doubtless he proclaimed it a festival to Jehovah. The idol, he reasoned to himself. is to be but an objective point of vision. The eye may rest on this, while the aspirations ascend higher. Such is the sophistry of the PJth century when it is claimed that pictures and images are aids to worship. Sin. as is observed, lay not in worshipping another god, but in disot>eying the second commandment which stricly forbids the making of a •'visible symbol to represent the great Jehovah, whom no symbol can represent, so far short does human art fall below the requirements of divine rcpresentnt i e l i . V. 15. And Moses turned and went down from the mount. While Joshua had remained on the mountain at a lower elevation and returned with Moses, there is no evidence that Moses communicated to him • the knowledge he had received of the disloyalty of tb.o people. And when Joshua illustrate t h e impoteucy oi'their golden emblem of strength; he east 'the powdered metal and refuse into the br<ok to emphasize the fact thut idolatry wop a curse, and as it embittered tho springs ^ t water, so in their spirituul lives it would embitter and poison the springs of rt^i£iouB»eiroshineiit. V. 21. And Moses said unto Aaron what j did thih people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them. Aaron had been left in charps, he occupied the position of leader and teacher. "To whom much ia given of him much is required." The gospel of e x c u s e is very old: Adam replied to the inquiry, -The wurauu thou tfavest me." Aaron said. "Thou knowest the people, that ttmj arc set on miachief." A truthful statement so far as it went, but no excuse for his participation or leadership in thy "mischief.'' Notice the equivocation, "I cast th« gold into the tire and there came <mt this calf." As if F*rovideuce was responsible for a kind of miraculous transmutation of the golden trinkets into this idolatrous form. Aaron was a weak leader, at thin date, rowardly aud untrustworthy. By his apathy Israel had made a spectacle of itself before the heathen round about. They would laugh at their short-lived piety, their lapse from virtue aud their moral nakedness. For where the carion is, there appear the vultures also, and no doubt the hilarity and obscenity of their orgies had drawn as witness many a scoffing Amalekite (xvii:S-13). V. 28. Who is on the Lord's side* Moses wUia ho beheld the demoralization took position in the gateway of the camp, and sounded with clarion voice the challenge "who is on the Lord's Bide? let him come unto me." In response Moses1 own tribe came forward in penitence and determination to be t r u e to their vows of allegiance to God. This open avowal was the initiatory preparation for the work of the priesthood. It cost something to come forth from among the people, t h e majority of whom were fully set to do eTil. The masses did not respond but retired to their tents. They did not want to take a decided stand for God and righteousness. It costs now. There are two parties: the masses do not identify themselves with the right; but there is no opportunity for neutrality, those who do not side for truth, holiness and God are enrolled as his enemies. SUGGKSTKD THOCOllTS. The lesson emphasises the goodness of God, in that atonement was provided for sin, even before the law was made known. Sin was not an unexpected emergency, but grace preceded it. "Those weak enough to sin are always weak enough to lay the blame upon others. Impenitent sin is never candid. Guilt cannot be honest." Whan Moses came down from the mountain, he came as an errand bearer, so we arc UJ sp#ak not our own thoughts but God's. The appealing motive must result from divine inspiration and constraint. Tho two tables represent two revelations, a revelation of man and a revelation of God. The statute book of a people is in a sense the history of that people. The tables were written on both sides. "There is no side of God's works on which his lessous are not inscribed." The minister to-day, true to his profession, goes up into t!:e mountain fas it were,) for his message, the people are iri the valley waiting. When he returns he should touch life with a steadier band, and do his duty with a completer obedience and more radiant cheerfulness, The people asked for Moses, So now the ^masses depend upon some leader.

No oue can fully realize how strangely music in a valley strikes the ear of those on tho mountain side. Especially marked is it in the Vosemite valley, surrounded by high mountains whose precipitous sides, clothed with t r c ' s and shrubs, obscure the vision, the fastnesses seem alive with voices. As the Atnalekites had once attacked ls- 1 rael, the suspicion of Joshua was very nat- | urat. But it was the loud song of revelry | which often follows the oriental banquet. leaping, dancing and weird orgies common I in heathen countries. Dancing was a part of the ancient religious ceremonial, some • times solemn and decorous, Hke that ot I David before the ark. In Kg.ypt, however. ' the form seems to have been of a sensual i and degrading type. Tliis sort of danciim, I so familiar to Israel from long residence in i Kgypt. was doubtless the cause of Moses' J extreme anger, as the lewdness and degraj dation of the scene burst upon htsview. ' The anger of Moses and his casting down | the tables of law and breaking the divinely ' inscribed tablets has always IHVU a wendcr- \ meat to mankind. One would have thought the first impulse would have been to cling closer to the divinely written words and [ works of Jehovah.

The nomination of Mr. Harrison fur President was very distracting to other candidates in the JSenaie Chamber last week, and prevent' d ' (jiU",dma | l n them from concentrating then minds on public business lor the time. Senator Edmunds managed howevei to have a good deal of fun in looking : t ; after the Kiver and Harbor bill. T h e Yadkin river in North Carolina \v;v-M.- innocent victim, or rather the North ! ^ u'mira Carolian Senator, Mr. Hansom was. ^ i;U ( < Mr. E d m u n d insisted that Imi^ ;i:.ro j ^,,.. ;., the lower part of the Yadkin was pi nounced unworthy ot impro\emeut 1 the general government, and was . regarded until Mr. Ransom discovered ; a n opportunity to invest some f^'Veni meut funds on the upper \y\xi ot it. j ( ' when $10,000 was asktrd for the river, | S\\ l '; improvement. Mr. Edmunds a-»ked j p^p,,.^ '.:. Mr. Ransom whether there a r e two j Kwrv I." Yadkin rivers in t h e old North State. cvoiy e ;s Mr. Kansom said no, but that the Yad kin was a vev y long river, which rises j \ L ' " " • '" in the mountains of N. U. and flows to I i u M ^.;!in;: •, the Pee Dee. Then Senators wondered ! ied in mv _J> what the Pee Dee was. J j 1 ' " ' ''': ;V'; "' Mr. Ransom supported t h e Y auk in | ["\s "• ';'a1' ']•' courageously, i l e a d m i t t e d that it v..i-. .p>vVd""l'.V' not now navigable, but tlie thought iid K dnov- >•:• i money enough was spent there would ji bolt.. ,a, ;. be several feet ot water for a consider- v able distance. Mr, Edmunds suggest- . , . , , ed that the Yadkin might be like an- j t,', nx ,',-,, i, other river in N. C. which it was form- j tie- , ouv erly intended to improve, but the en- ' eu.i:'a.i .- u gineer reported that i t would be necessary to build pumping works 'over to i it in order to get up a c u r r e n t . ' Mr. Ransom grew tired of this and finally turned upon the Vermont Senator with the Statement that the hitler, in the committee r:om, had t > s>>iul IYH- :,O , chart after chart and map after map i aid-a-aabefore he could iind tin- Vermont ''u<-f"p'; • ! . ; ..••"' I r i for which he wanted to gH.„,a-n"'appro- ! ' ;: ' priation. Mr. Edmunds "accuse.I Mr ' Ransom of drawing upon his 1:,:.e:du atiDn in talking about Vermont iav: aand surprised him by saying that i had crossed the Yadkin tour i i m o i * the last six months and that ihe wall-, ing was very good there about<. Mr. Edmunds made life tedmu> to ,i. number ot Senators from other Sra:. -. by ruthlessly exposing tlu.dr li'iie rl\ --r jobs. Hut there will be a go,.,,! ,-i/.,. : River and Harbor bill passed in a law days, notwithstanding. It is claimed by the friend- ot Pre-ident Cleveland that his remarks In reply to t h e otlieial notiiiT-atinu o[ hi-, ;•, . nomination were some ot 'the hot an ablest things he has made since hi.-, i cupancy of the White House. His excursion to l'har!otte-\dl;.. . n Wednesday, was an interesting -pi >a •. He was enabled to see the lazM.',ael gave ot Thomas Jefferson, and ,a-< Virginia's old University. The Republicans say they will ,-an \ the Old Dominirn in the I're-ende; lai election next fall because.their nomin"" is "so well" and is akin to all of 1 mtt ed and that his face was almost as whife-rr< 1 he pillow on whieh liis head rested.

Ban is, Pieckir y, Michigan i l i i ' lr:i Arnica S a l v e always surrounded by water when the fire is lighted or b t u n i n g , otherwise a light cylinder of this kind would burn out in a very short timo. I n a heater of this kind one cord of wood will be sufficient to heat the water lor 30 or 40 head of cattle all winter. It is not desirable to maintain t h e heat in the tank all the time, the effect j of that would be to render the water . unfit for use in a very short time. I ] hope no farmer who tries the experiment of heating water tor his cattle will attempt this through a mistaken notion of econoin'y*- ^ Tn the coldest weather we have never found it nafeessary to keep the tire burning from two to four hours out of the 2-1 to supply 40 head ot cattle with all the water they would drink at a temperature of from 50 to 70 degrees. A healthy milch cow, in full flow of milk will drink and requires GO to 100 pounds of water per diem. It is utterly impossible to t,et one to take onehall' or even one-quarter of this amount of ice water, nor will they drink the ice water or cold water with any regularity. The cardinal point in feeding, watering and milking dairy cattle is regularity. I t tells as nothing else can tell. Cattle if compelled to satisfy their rhiist with ice water, will almost invariably refuse to take any until compelled by nature to satisfy its cravings. This alone is, to mv mind, sufficient reason why we should give them water at a temperature they very evidently like the most. In winter dai'-ips an average yield from'a good fair cow will amount to oO pounds of milk per day. Drawn from her at a temperature of 90 deorc- e>, is it reasonable to expect her to replace this heat with ice water at a temperature of 34 degrees or less? The dairyman who does will get woefully left. I am fully satisfied from my own observations that a cow is capable of producing her largest flow "f milk on the hottest day of the hottest summer, provided other things be •*<pial. The good effects of warming water t'-r my cattle were very soon observed ifter I commenced to give it. The :low of milk-was gradually increased entil weostimated it to be at least 2"> 'ier cent. The cattle improved very oercephbly in appearance, looked ' - h ' k ' T .

A perfect town is t h a t in which you see the farmers patronizing t h e home merchant's the laborers spending the> money they earn with their own tradesmen, and all animated by a spirit t h a t will not purchase articles abroad if they can be bought at home. The spirit of reciprocity between business men and mechanics, tradesmen, and laborers, farmers and manufacturers, result every time in making a town a perfect one to do business in.—Ex. snfroivd , e ! i : U l a !i .11-. 1 1 .

And Moses said unto the Lord, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight. 13. Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, show me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may tind grace in thy si^ht: and consider that this nation is thy people. 14. And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. 15. And he said unto htm. If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence. 16. For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy sight' is it not in that thuu guest with us? so shall we be separated, I aud thy people, from all the people that are upon *he face of the earth. 17. And the Lord said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name. 18. Aud he said, I beseech thee, show me thy glory. I'J. And he said, I will make all my goodness to pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and i will show mercy upon whom I will show mercy. -0. And he said. Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live. 21. And the Lord said, Behold there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock: 22. And it shall come to pass, when my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by: 23. And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.

S- lie (the tribe of Levi) promptly responded and took a bold stand for the right; others went to their tents to consider, others incorrigible, perished in their sins. It is a remarkable coincidence that in thi3 first flagrant violation of law 3,000 perished, and under the first great proclamation of grace 3,(NX) were saved. No sooner had Moses reprimanded the people than he withdrew and prayed for them, fasting forty days and nights until the Lord hearkened and spared them and the great body of Israel returned to their allegiance. While the people were forgiven, the Lord indicated that his personal presence wouid be withdrawn, and this is the occasion of the prayer in our lesson to-day: Moses' intercession in behalf of the people and intercession in his own behalf.

Shew me thy glory. Mo-es prays for himself, he needs assurance; past blessings aud Divine revelations will not suffice. Moses did not desire a vision to gratify the natural eye only, but he desired a sensible manifestation of Divine glory. Mercy yielded to the prayer, and consented not only to forgive the people and restore the broken covenant, but to give a special revelation of Cod's goodness and glory. Knowing God's way is a great help to right thinking and right doing. The house will he better built, if the builder understands well the architect's [dans. As the covenant was to be renewed, and as Mos-\s was to stand again as mediator between Jo hovah and the people he desired to speak ir 'orstandingly and intelligently of the Being whose mind he was to interpret. While the answer to Moses' prayer was not given exactly as he asked, nevertheless he was given as great a blessing as he was capable of receiving. Not all prayer is it possible to answer, now. Moses in the ttesh could not behold the full glory of the Divine. Fifteen hundred years afterward he stood •'.cjyith Jesus en the Mt. of Transfiguration af smcTtalked with him in the fullness of glory, while the disciples eould not behold, but were ns dead men in the glorious Presence: '•Thou kuowest not now, thou shalt know hereafter."

To behold how God could be just and the justitier of those who believe in Jesus—a revelation of the atoning sacrifice, was doubtless a part of that which was vouchsafed to Moses. "I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious." Not that favor was arbitrarily bestowed, but that whatever manifestation or grace was apparent, all was of unmerited favor. The words were sjKtken in this form, doubtless, to preserve Moses from being vain-glorious in that he had prevailed with God. While God's will is the ultimate ground of favor, he has stated the conditions upon which all may approach with assurance of blessing H i s mercy is shown to thousands of generations, while iniquity is visited only to the third and fourth generations. V. 20. There shall no man see me and live. A s the eye would be destroyed by gazing a t the glories of the sun through the clear glass of the telescope, so the natural man would be consumed were the glories of t u e Divine to burst upon him. In the world to which we hasten, added powers, enlarged capacities, exquisite sensibilities will enable the redeemed soul to see and know God as he is. To Moses, therefore, it was said, I will put thee into a cleft in the nude and shiel 1 thine eyes with my hand as thou viewtist the lesser glories which it is possible for mortal man to comprehend. " T h e glory was unquestionably the glory of Christ, else what curi be meant by Moses beholding 'the similitude of the Lord,' a display of the 'express image of his person.' SI fiOKSTKU TUOIOHTS. Moses had come down from heavenly heights, had been touched by defilement, and he bounded back, as it were, with more earnest desire for greater manifestation of (iod's power and closer relationship to holiness. Moses had seen an idolatrous revelry; he desired a vision of God and his glory that would forever banish that ribald scene from memory. Moses did not really know how much his prayer implied. B e t t e r e r r by desiring too much than too little: better seek greater heights than fall down in lowuess of mind, smallness of purpose and coldness of heart. At the very time God had determined upon the consecration of Aaron, he was constructing an idol. How often has God turned aside his blessing from us, because we have been discovered in the manufacfacture of mischief. What a picture of life! Human perversity obstructing the chariot wheels of salvation. They who do not contend for the faith are usually too blind to see any faith for which to contend. The wcudd is full of Aarons, men who cut aud trim, endorse new policies and succumb to the clamor of the populace. T h e need of the world is men like Moses, uncompromising, incorruptible patriots, unswerving expounders of truth. Moses felt the weight of responsibility a s a leader, hence he prayed, "If thou wilt, forgive their sin, and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book." He could not survive an unpardoned people: their pardon involved his; his heaven* must be their heaven. The shepherd cannot rest while the ltock is being worried by wild beasts, otherwise he is no shepherd, but a hireling. The true minister cannot say "I have done my duty, but the people are lost; give me my crown." With P a u l rather he would exclaim. "I could wish myself accursed, r a t h e r than Israel should not be saved."' Human selfishness knows not the divine principle of self-sacrifice. God's presence or his absence is the distinguishing characteristic of nations. A knowledge of God and of his abiding presence is essential to successful teaching aud preaching. Bright light destroys the eye, intense heat the body, and bursts of thunder theheariug; there is a near limit to human powers; adapt 0 ion to light, heat ami sound. Limited ny nature, we know but little, sea as it were "through a glass darkly." Heavenly perceptions will be ours by and by. to sec as we are seen, to know as we are known, and to worship God in the beauty of holiness.

The Tontine principle of accumulation, as applied by the New-York Life, has given the largest results at the end ot selected periods of any plan of insurance. A prominent banker writes tbat he believes, all things considered, an investment in lite insurance is the best possible use to put a portion of one's income. In case of death it brings to the taimly immediately what serves them better than any thintf else — namely, cash. With all he has to do with settling estate*, he has never iound an asset so reliable, and easily convertible, as a policy of life insurance. C. P. SYKES, Agent. XL0CAL GLEANINGS* Messrs.

At a n y r a t e thoy could certainly hear s o u n d s which were i n a u d i b l e to us, and see l i g h t which was beyond tho range to our eyes. Those c o n s i d e r a t i o n s raised the reflection h o w different the world m u s t a p p e a r to o t h e r a n i m a l s from w h a t it did to us. S o u n d was tho sensation produced on us whon t h e vibrations of the air struck on t h e d r u m of our e a r ; when thoy w e r e few the s o u n d w a s deep; as t h e y increased in n u m b e r they b e c a m e shrill* er, but w h e n they a p p r o a c h e d forty 'thousand in a second they ceased to be audible.

Yet between these limits any n u m b e r of s e n s a t i o n s m i g h t exist. We hail tivo senses, and s o m e - times fancied t h a t no o t h e r s were possible.

Moreover, looking at the q u e s t i o n from a n o t h e r side, wo found in o t h e r a n i m a l s c o m - plex o r g a n s of sense richly supplied with nerves, the functions of which o r g a n s we were as yet powerless tc explain.

Harrison and with eimal unanimity selected you as its nominee for vice-president. Hy order of that convention we were appointed a committee, to notify ibt nominees of their selection. This pleasant duty has been in pun performed in giviug Gen. Harrison, your associate upon tho ticket, that notification, It only remains for us to discharge the further duty conferred upon us by tho official notice to you. The country has already passed judgment upon your selection, and it has met with such uuiversal approval that it is only left for this committee to add its own expression of their high appreciation of your personal qualities, as well us their confidence in your eminent fitness for the position to which the deliberate judgment of tho convention assigned you. In conclusion, we be ieve that this notification to you will not be a meaningless formality, but that your nomination will result in triumphant election. Mr. Morton responded in the' following words: Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the committee— I um profoundly sensible of the high honor which haw been conferred upon mo by the national convention recently in session at Chicago, and thank you. gentlemen, for the courteous and complimentary terms in which you have ofticully announced my nomination as the candidate of the republican party for the vice presidency. I am also deeply sensible of the honor conferred upon the state of New *York in tho selection of a citizen of this state as one of the standard-bearers in the approaching peaceful conflict of the two great political parties of the country for supremacy in governmental control. New York represents to a large decree the business interests of all those ever-growing and wider spreading communities of varied interests and industries which it is tho mission of the republican party to foster and protect. The platform so wisely adopted at Chicago has this mission bodly in view, and by its enunciation of those principles makes the issue clear and distinct. I accept the position tendered by the convention, of which you are the honored representatives, and will in due time address to you, Mr. Chairman, an official communication to that effect. Introductions and lunch followed, and the visitors were invited to drive over to Mr. Morton's country scat, Eherslie. Appealed to the Sword.

And all tho congregation of tho children of Israel departed from the presenceof Moses. 2L Ami thoy came, every one whose heart stirrVd him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought tho Lord's offering to the work of tho tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy garments. 22. And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings, and rings, and tablets, alt jewels of gold: and every man that offered offered an offering of gold uuto the Lord. 2;f. And every man with whom was found blue, and purple, und scarlet, and tine linen, and goats' hair, and red skins of rams, and badgers' skins brought them. 24. Every ono that did offer an offering of silver und brass brought tho Lord's offering: and every man with whom was found shittim wood for any work of tho service, brought it. 2o. And all tho women that were wise hearted did spin with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of lino linen. 2(5. And all tho women* whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goat's hair. 27. And the rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate; 2*. And spice and oil for tho light, and for the annointingoil, and for sweet incense. 21*. The children of Israel brought a willing offering unto the Lord, every man and woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all manner of work, which the Lord had commanded to bo made by tho hand of Moses. GOLDEN TKXT.—God loveth a cheerful giver. The time of the lesson is in the autumn following Israel's departure from Egypt. Tho law was promulgated from Sinai ">U da^s after the rirst passover; Moses was in tho mount 40 days and returning found tho people in idolatry. Again he ascended Sinai and was gone another forty days and when he returned his face shone with the glory in which he had participated. With his heart ou tire with zeal and his lips inspired to speak, he called the vast assembly together and impressed upon them observance of a Sabbath of rest and worship and the importance of a sanctuary; tho service which he demanded being voluntary. i.nssox NOTES. V. 20. And the children of Israel departed, from Moses, at the close of the great mass meeting, to consider his words and meditate upon their obligations, in view of what they had heard. A small tax had been levied upon each man, according to the divine direction for the general support of worship (Ex. IJU: 12-lt>); an equal tax, the rich not to give more or the poor less, to emphasize the idea of equal obligation of all to God.—-Todd. The present appeal, however, was for a voluntary offering. "And they came, every one whose heart was stirred and every one whose spirit was made willing and they brought tlie Lord's offering to the work of the tabernacle." The very fact that tho distinction is made, of the willing hearted, indicates that then as now. there were those who loved their possessions better than a sanctuary ; those whose hearts were not stirred by past blessings or inspired with hope for new. These apathetic ones have many descendants, conservative people, opposed to enthusiasm and aggresive measures which cost something. A consecrated heart is the source of liberality. A few gifts inspired by love weigh more ou the divine platform than many forced from unwilling hearts upon the assessment plan. V. 22. And they came, both men and women (as many as were willing heart"di. Says Hush, the peculiar phraseology of fhe Hebrew indicates that the women brought their gifts tirst, and were followed by the men; however, that may be us respects readiness and zeal, the work of God needs tho service and gifts of both. | At a meeting of the Presbyterian assembly, when the report on missions gave a large sum as derived from legacies and Aie woman's l>o;ird. some one is said to have moved e vote of thanks to the dead men and the iive women of our churches Peloubet.] Each brought what he had, gold, silver, gems, spun goods, and those who had not. these brought their talent of skilled labor, and so the tabernacle was more than provided for, and Moses found it necessary to issue a proclamation restraining the people. Anion;: the causes wiiich led to this remarkable generosity were. Isi, the people realized that thoy had broken theircovenant obligations and had been restored to favor, and in generous offerings they would prove their thankfulness that opportunity had been given to renew their allegiance: 2d, they realized the importance of a sanctuary as an aid to correct living. The observance of the Sabbath which Moses had emphasized would be promoted by a regular con- Vocation and forms of service. All of this was actuated by loyal hearts anxious to carry out God's plans. [God did not need these gifts for the riches of the world were his, but the people needed the blessings which would, return as a reflex influence?. ] The magnitude of these gifts following the offerings made for the golden calf, indicates the vast, wealth of Israel in gems and ornaments, It is not very remarkable whon wo remember that, rings, necklaces and jewels were the special delight of the people. [If destitute of wearing apparel to-day, the Egyptian will bo extravagantly decked with valuable's of this sort.] It is remembered that Israel was burdened with gifts by the Egyptians, following the calamities winch befell them in the death of their first, born. Men and women both' wore golden ornaments. There was no money in the form of.coin or bullion, in that early age. Persohahdecorations. such as rings, etc., were weighed and passed current, with merchants. Costly and elegant ornaments abounded in proportion as clothing was simple and fccaroc>^vHcnstoiiburg.

"Geuit's hair" was a heavy material used in the: construction of tents. "Ked skins of r a m s " were doubtless those tanne'd and eolore'd, similar to what is now known as morocco.

V 27. And the rulers brottgjJOCyx stones: each according to his po#t?Mlons. Tho rulers having choicer and more expensive gems gave those. Scholars differ in opiu ion regarding tho onyx, but it is believed to have been a delicately tinted gem, so culled boe-auso of its color (like the flesh as seen through tho nail of tho finuei\ from tho Greek, onyx). " So tho reddish mass of color which is below, shines doli cutely through the whitish surface-•Uoseumullc. There were to bo two of these stones, each engraved with tho names of six of the tribes of Israel, and these wero worn on the shoulders of t h e hijfh priest, after the manner of epaulettes. The other "stones to bo sot" wore twelve in number cugruved each with tho name of a tribe and worn in the breastplate of tho high priest, (Ex. SS:17-20). " T h e ephod" consisted in the most part of shoulder pieces; sometimes cut to form a kind of un apron before and behind. The "breastplate" was the most beautiful and expressive of uny part of the high priest's dress; it w a s beautifully embroidered and worn on the heart of tho high priest, the twelve engraved stones being set in gold. F r a g r a n t spices were adeled to the pure beaten olive oil which was to burn continually in the sanctuary (a type of the prayers of God's people, fragrant with lovo and continuous in uprising). The crowning glory of all was tho "willingness" of the offering: a loving heart makes a liberal hand, sriiOKSTKO THOUOUTS. Every person slmuld give in aid of tho gospel what ho lias, bo it gold, silver or service; should give systematically, proportionately, lovingly and liberally. The commonest, coarsest things, consecrated to divine use, become invested with value. Righteousness is not inherited. Moses and Aaron were brothers and yet the latter was guilty of idolatry while the former was on the mount with God. Love; is unmistakable, prompt, enthusiastic, willing. The expression of tho eye, the iullection of the voice, the subtle manner, all combine in forming a language which is intelligible to every human heart. In service4)f Christ and the Lord's house we want'not less intelligence and conviction but more loVe. , There is no place for reluctant service and the world in every age has had and needed those who found delight in human beneficence and divine worship. Behold the wisdom of God in the everrecurring demands'of service, service the very dmug of which brings reward. The demands of industry "were inspired by the consideration of human need, an expression of the philosophy of moral and spiritual edui'atiou. When building tho tabernacle, Israel found no time to murmur. Industry in service conduces to unity and peace. People murmur less when they work more, "1 will be with thee," is the guarantee of success, not human skill and loretbought. We may have elegant houses of worship, eloquent leaders and skilled organization, but success is e>f the Lord. Men may feel that .they ...know, not the Lord, but he knows them. If men will not impure, concerning the Lord, they may ever remain strangers. There is moral as well as intellectual ignorance. Let us not forget that tho tabernacle was us much for man as for God. Wo speak of the'"house of God," but its glory consists of its dual occupane'y. God seeks and desires human co-operation. Tho house eif God is tho symbolic home, the resting place between time and eternity: Divinity the architect, humanity the builder.

Tho Law Sustained. The supreme court has rendered a decision denying a mandamus in the case of Whitnev and Saunders, to compel the Crund Kap'.da township board to approve their sal .on bond. The reason for within • " ' " * "• "•'" v : Wi lolding ap u-oval WA* l h a t t n o i r business ,vsa in violation of an act of tho legislature af 'S7, which prohibited the sale of intoxicants within i ue mile of the soldiers' homo institution. The relators asserted the law to be an invasion of |.roperty rights.in viola tion of th« state constitution and the fourteenth amendment to the U. S. constitution depriving tliein of property .without due process ol" iaw, etc., ami therefore void. Justice Morse wriles au opinion denying I he mandamus in which Justices Lou;,' and I mam plain concur, upon the ground that the legislature has full power to puss laws regarding the control of state institutions ami the welfare of its inmates, which has i.ever been questional, and that this law in ijuestion is clearly in line with this, and therefore not in eonliict with the state constitution. Chief Justice Champliu tiles a separate opinion, practically sustaining the law upon the ground that it is simply an exorcise of Lho police power of the state, and the wholesome effect of tho natural exercise of this power is so far reaching that it conflicts with no constitutional right. Justice Campbell riles a dissenting opinion, taking tho ground that no property rights are involved, it being simply wnethcr the legislature has the power to pass a law applicable to any particular person, or locality, which does not bear equally upon ail the citizens and in all the territory. In his tminiou it has not, and'tho relators •should have the relief prayed for and the writ issue. — • — - - Michigan Crop Report. Figures from tho state monthly crop report given out by the secretary of state places the actual acreage of wheat in 1SS7 to have been 1.()7.1,50S, and the actual yield 22.7:J3,550 bushels, an average of 1¾ and 50- 100 bushels per acre. These Hjrures are in excess of the July. 1SS7. estimate of the,department about 1,000,000 bushels, and about 1)2.000 less than the final estimate iu October. The actual acreage is about 22,000 acres in oxeess of the amount reported on tho ground in May. 1SS7. which is due the spring wheat sowings after the supervisors had gathered the statistics. The number of •acres of wheat on the ground in May of this year is reported at 1,.104,041. Multiplying this acreage by county by the average yield as estimated by crop correspondents on July 1, indicates a total yield iu the state for this year of 1:1,1)11,0.¾ bushels. More than onefourth of t h e area seeded to wheat in the fall of 1NS7 is reported destroyed from the winter, insects and other causes. A s compared with average years, the condition of corn is 01, oats 07, clover meadows and pastures 09, timothy so, and clover sown this year 93 per cent. Apples promise S2, S.I and SO per cent, of an average crop in the southern, central and northern counties respectively. Poaches 72 per cent, in the southern counties. I'Mwardsburjjf's Disaster. A destruct ive wind storm struck the town of Edwardsburg, about 1 o'clock the other night, creating sad havoc through t h e village. The town consists of about 700 inhabitants, and contains between 250 and 300 buildings. It is located on the Grand Trunk railway, 113 miles from Chicago, on the shores of Diamond lake. The wind struck the village with terriihe force, overturning and carrying away many of the houses. There is not a business house in the place but what is damaged to a more or less extent, and the town is almost a complete wreck. A large and handsome hotel that had just been completed and had not yet been furnished was moved about fifteen feet from its foundations and completely wrecked. Several dwelling houses were unroofed and a number of barns wore destroyed, leaving t tie horses and cattle unhurt, No one was injured as far as known. The little lake was turned into a veritable sea, and the pleasure boats that were upon it wore lifted bodily out of the water and thrown up high and dry on the land. Twenty Years for Murder. Ed. Palmer, the Alma wife murderer, has been found guilty of murder in the second decree'; and sentenced to "20 years iu Jackson prison. Mrs. Palmer disappeared from her home near Ithaca several months ago and her husband reported that she was visiting friends. Shortly afterward Palmer left his home, and suspicion being aroused the premises were examined and Mrs. P a l m e r ' s body was found buried in a box under one of the stalls in the stable, Palmer was arrested in tho woods, and he declared his innocence, showing a remarkable letter purporting to have been written to him by his wife, in which she said she was about to kill herself because she was not his lawful wife, aud begging him to keep the matter a secret. Palmer has maintained this story throughout, though making some admissions of a criminating nature. A careful examination of the woman's body revealed the -mark* of murder, -not--suicide, andTHT the trial the evidence led to but one conclusion— murder, and by Palmer. D e a t h in Cheese. At the ouarterly meeting of tho state board of health Dr. Raker presented a communication from Dr. Win. C. West of Monroe, c uu'iuaiing about twenty cases of cheese poisoamg in that city. The symptoms of prostration, violent vomiting and purging being those usually produced, by tyroloxicon, a sample of tao. cheese was sent to Prof. K. C. Kedzir of the state agricultural college for analysis: and a letter was read from Prof. KeJzie. stating that tyr.)toxicon was found as a result of his analysis. l i e says: "I rind the poison present in very distinct quantity. I have separated the poison in needle-shaped crystals, usually associated in stellar form. The reaction with ferricyanhide of potassium and ferric chloride, also with iodic acid and starch, are very distinctly given." This analysis by a reliable chemist again confirms the discovery first made by Professor Vaughan, member of the state board of health. - • • - - — Salt Inspector's Report.

The Philadelphia Times says: "Ever since the memorable strikes on the Heading and tho Chicago, Burlington As, Quiney railroad systems, in which the kniirhts of labor, the'brotherhood of locomotive engineers ami the? brotherhood of locomotives llrrmen were worsted in their struggles, there has been a scheme' in jemtemplation, proposed by the knights of labor, which, if the negotiations now in aedive progress are satisfactory, will join together s.oeK),u»0 of workingmeu with an insoluble band, aud exert, a powerful industrial and political influence all over Urn l'uited States. "The scheme, which had been brewing ever since the last general assembly of the kuights in Minneapolis, was first broached by General Master Workman Powderly and several membersof the knights of labor executive board to the huidiutf officials of the brotherhood of locomotive engineers und liremen during the conference between the kuights of labor aud the above organ i- <? zations in this city last March, when it was proposed to se-ttle the differences between the knights and the brotherhood by calling out a i the brotherhood men on the Heading system. •j he consolidation was both favored and opposeil by those present at the conference, and it was argued that while n uuiejii would be, in a general sense, beneficial, the needs of each industrial branch were varied, and no one organization could be made to serve the general purpose of between s,000,000 and lO.OOO.OoO workingmeu. •"The? propositions to organize were sub-' mitted as follows: That all labor associations shall be under the direction of one supreme head, who shall be elected by the delegates of every industrial organization at a general convention. That each organization shall be represented in the general councils by an executive committee. That ever\- separate imlustrial organization shall retain the individuality they now possess and be under the command of a chief officer whose only superior shall be the supreme head of the entire consolidation. That the object of affiliating the interests of the' different associations be for the purpose e>f rendering moral and financial assistance to each other wdieu differences arise that can only be adjusted by a strike. "If this national consolidation is effected it will include the brotherhood of locomotive engineers, the brotherhood of locomotive firemen, the order of railway cojiduc tors, t h e brotherhood of brakemeu, the switchmen's association, the; national C.SM>- ciation of amalgamated iron and stc;el workers, the knights of labor and every industrial organization that lies within its jurisdiction, the textile workers, the e/oal miner.-, and every branch of organized labor, srktiled and unskilled. / "The matter will be brought before the national convention of loo/motive liremen in Atlanta <m "September/10, the general assembly of the knights/cf labor and the national conventions of blithe loading labor organizations.

One suflpy day, when spring wus young, I wandered forth, in pensive mood, Adowm the meuds, across'the brook, Into the forest's solitude. M A mossy mound, an oak-tree's shaue, Invited me to calm repose, And in the nook I sought that rest Which only woodland lover knows; And as I lay in rapturous ease, Enchanted with the blissful scene, A lilyrfiower my ga;su ospied, A small white spot upon the green. I wist not why, but to my mind I t seemed u messenger divine, Ordained to And my wild retreat Aud miugle heavenly thoughts with mine. And-so, I, softly speaking, said : "Thoucooi'st a very welcome guest, F o r I would fain irupurt to thee The queries of a troubled breast. Thy life is but a month at most, Then haunts which knew thee know thee not; Thou latest into dust uwa.y, Thyself -thy grave—are soon forgot. The bee conies wooing to thy arms And sings to thee a merry song, Thou yieldoat him the sweets of love, Not thinking he will do thee wrong.

And thus it is, though brief thy life, Though unrequited all thy love, Of wealth and beauty both bereft, Thou still art like the modest dove, Devoted, tender, pure and true, Kesigned to thy allotted range, Not mourning o'er the couutless things, Thou hast not iu thy power to change. Then-tell me, gentle little flower, Wlmt reconciles thee to thy fute? What heaven implanted truth is thine Which cheers thee in thy low estate? H o w c a n ' s t thou live and die content, With thy small part in God's great plan? Why art thou not displeased and sad* Why art thou net, in short, like uu»i. i Why am I not like impious man, Who, discontented with his sphere, Blasphemes his God and curses those Who-are his fellow-workers here, Whose vain ambition knows no bounds, But e'en would mount the heavenly throne'. I can no other answer give— I bloom not fpr myself alono.,,J Full many a year has come and gone, And summer's heat and winter's cold; My messenger now sleeps iu death, And i sun grown infirm and old; B u t ever till I lay me down, Aud with the flowers make common grave.

She made no objection, it is a curious fact, that in spite of his glorification of the noble art of loafing, Mr. Carruthers "was always ready to go walking with Miss Clauson wherever and whenever she permitted it. Hut no man is consistent for twenty-four hours at a stretch. After a great deal of reasoning, he came to the conclusion that lie had found the word to suit her. Beatrice was mor-, bid. Everyone knows that the best cure for morbidness is to asvaken the patient's interest iu his or her fellow creatures—in even one fellow creature will sometimes do. Hut although Mr. Carruthers decided that Beatrice was morbid, he had still to account for—UK.' appearance of ihc disease in a mental constitution which ought to have been the last to have su eunibed to i t So one evening, shortly after his arrival at lla/.lewood House, Frank asked his hosts, of cour-e in the most casual disinterested way, many loading questions about Miss Clauson—why she was not married, or at least engaged, and so forth. T h e Talberts returned their old answer that it was time she thought about it, but perhaps she took after themselves, ami was not of the marrying disposition. This Mr. Carruthers ventured to doubt. "She may have been disappointed in love,'' he said, carelessly. All the same he refilled from the claret jug the glass from which he had been drinking ltf-17 port. "My dear F r a n k , " said Horace, with gra\ e dignity, "Miss Clauson would never pennii such a thing to happen. " > "Certainly not,'' said Herbert. " P e r m i t what'.' Permit herself to fall in love'.'" "-•... • .No; permit herself to 1« disappointed in love. She is far too—too , well tirtici, for. such a thing to 'occur. AVTren.,^ she makes her choice it will be otic., of which we all approve; so disappolntrfre-ut is out of the question. . ^--., " T h a t ' s highly' satisfactory;--'.,, said Frank. "A well regulatefojfiDung woman is the noblest work of—well, of modern t i m e s . " They were by now getting accustomed to him. ami although rather shocked at Beatrice's being called P. young woman did not show it. • T h e n her choice Is not yet made'.1" continued Frank. ••N'ot t o o u r knowledge, and, 1 may add, not to Sir Maingay's." Mr. Carruthers asked no more questions. He strolled out into the garden and talked quietly to Miss Clauson, until tho stars showed themselves In the sky. Having ascertained that Miss Clauson was under the charge of no other amateur doctor, Mr. Carruthers could, of course, set about curing her disease, without any fear of outraging professional etiquette. C11APTEI1 XII. A nnnsr,! A HOUSK! i t must not be supposed that no mention of any friends or acquaintances of Miss Clauson's implies that she led an isolated life at Ha/.lewood House. She had, Indeed, plenty of both. It could hardly be otherwise, as the Talberts were very great on the subject of the interchange of social civilities, and kept a visiting book -as carefully as any lady could have done. One of Miss Clauson's friends came several times across Frank C a r r u t h e r s ' patb about this period. This friend, or aequalntan' e, was a fine, h u l k i n g young fellow of about twenty, the heir to, and hope of, one of the families of position. A great good-natured, broad-shouldered boy, who would doubtless In a year or two develop into somet h i n g t h a t a mother might be proud of, aud a young lady feel happy to have for a suitor. He was an Oxford undergraduate, and for awhile had been one of Frank s pupils. So when he carne up to Ha/.lewood House oue morning, of cours.; to see the Talberts, he was much surprised at fludlng the celebrated Oxford coach sitting at his ease just like an ordinary unlearned Philistine. He hung about the place until Peatrico appeared, and. after awhile, F r a n k heard him ask her when he might call and go riding with her. Although Mr. Carruthers, when inqulr lug into Miss Clauson's likes and dislikes, had ascertained that she was fond of riding, he had not as yet seen her on horseback. Perhaps the sharpest shaft in Love's quiver was kept to be shot the l a s t At present her horse was iu the hands of the veterinary s-urgeon, o there was no chance of young Purton s being gratified. Nevertheless, the account of the animal's progress toward recovery was good, and Miss Clauson hoped it would be returned to her very soen. F r a n k Carruthers, when he met the young fellow, dressed In the moat natty and approved equestrian costume, used to laugh and jest with him, anil ask for the latest bulletins anent the convalescing steed. He knew that y o m g Purton had once or twite ridden into Blacktowu, to see what progress the Invalid was making. For his own amusement F r a n k would address humorous questions, clothed, for the benefit or distress of his pupil, in elegant Latin or Greek, until young Purton fled incontinently, or boldly asserted that he ought not to be tormented before his time. Ono morning, to his inexpressible d - light, he found the horse re-instaile in the liazlewood stables, and, moreover. Miss Clauson willing to don her liding gear, and allow her (-avail r to take her for a twenty-mile ride. Miss Clauson's appearance on horseback need not he described: but Mr. Carruthers, after watching her supple, graceful, b t, alas! vanishing figure, buried his hands in his pockets, and walked about the garden In a seemirgly reflective mood. Then for awhile lie went back to his favorite holiday occupation of lying on the lawn and doing nolhing. Horace and Herbert by this time had finished their housekeeping, or china dusting, or whatever kept them indoors. They joined him, and laughed at his \o/.\- ness. He tilted back his hat, and looked up at them sleepily. "1 say, Horace, where can I buy a horse:'" " A horse!" " 1 es. 1 had quite forgojten it, but my do tor insisted*rtfat as soon as I got better I should take horse exercise. " "I didn't know you could ride." "Ves, I can. Something, of course, very c u e ' . Ch, yes, 1 can ride until I fall otr. The worst is t at whenever I fall from anything, whether a horse or a ladder, 1 come on my head as certain as a shuttlecock does." " T a k e one of the carriage h o r s e - , " said Herbert. " W e can use the dog-cart," added Horace. "Not a bit of it. Vim wouldn't well in a dog-cart. i t s not a nilied conveyance enough. No will buy me a leu-.", mu\ sell when 1 leave yon. 1 will no! trust m\ self to a hireling. •The hireling - what is it i ' i o ; c dig- 1 him tin iy. hireling does'.'" 'Forsakes the liock." said Jleri'ert. 'The s h e e p , " said Herbert, eorreetinga i e e p would to go rank. " "Yes, to be sure. I am neither nor a fleck, but fear the hireling treat me bully. So tell me when for a horse. " " I t seems great extravagance, I "Extravagance1 What is extravagance'.* Spending more than one can afl'ont. 1 am rolling in money. I am disgustingly ricli. I fear not to meet e ther my bootmaker or my banker, l.esides in j n-th e to my doctor, I must .have prescr ptions made up, no matter what they cost." They saw he was in earnest, so they called their c achman to assist in the search for a steed. -The coachman, in his striped linen waistcoat, joined the group and waited his masters commands. " W i l l i a m . ' saiii Horace. "Mr. Carruthers is thinking of buying a horse.. Do you know of anything for sale around here'.'" " D o 1 know of ahoss, sir."said William, reflectively. "Something quiet," put in Herbert, who was solicitous for F r a n k ' s safety. "A hos- —something quiet—" repeated William. " T o drive or ride, sir.'" lie asked, turning to Frank. " T o r i d e .

I don't think 1 should." answered Horaco with that polite gravity which always amused his cousin. "Mr. Bulger won't do, William." said Frank. "Try elsewhere." William scratched his nose, ami for a minute was in earnest thought. "There's Captain Taylor's m a r e , " ho said, with a timid glance at his masters. " S h e as ran away with the stanhope and smashed it. Hut they say she goes quiet enough with a saddle on her back—leastwise if a man knows how to r i d e . " " W e won't deprive Captain Taylor of f his treasure,'' said Frank. " T h i n k a g a i n . " " W i l l you eo to Barker's repository, sir?'' asked William, who had come to the end of his equine re-earches. ••Where Is i t ? " " I n Blacktown,'' said H e r b e r t " W o will go with you.'' "No, thank you. I will make my own unbiased choice. No one shall be blamed If I come to grief—except my doctor. la Barker an honest m a n ? ' ' " H e is supposed to be so," said Horace. " H e ' s a s honest as hoss-dealers is made,"' said William. " T h e n I'll trust my neck in Barker's Imnds. I'll walk into Blacktown at once. '" At the lodge gate he found William watting for him. "If 1 may make so hold, s.r, y »u say to Mr. Barker that i -enL you to hlni—William (illes, sir, Mr. Talb e r t s mau. Barker ain't so ba I as some, sir; and when he knows 1 shall have somet ling to do with the boss, maylw he won t try and beat you." " T h a n k you, William, for your disinterested kindness, ' said Frank- gravel). " D n t mention It, sir,' said William. with politeness perhaps caught from his masters. "William Giles, Mr. Taibert's may,— ygu'll rememb r, s i r ? " "Certainly, William. Is there any thing else I ought to say to Mr. B a r k e r . " "No, sir, not as 1 know of."' "Shall 1 tell him • on deserve five or ten per cent, on the tr•-• • •* " ion'.''' "<>h, Mr. Carr t i e r you know the inside of the ropes, you d >• If you ride as well as you reckon i.p, you might a' bought Captain*Taylor s mar.-. Don't think Barker will take you in much, s i r . " " P e r h a p s not; but I'd better make sure. Fetch me a nice clean straw, William.'' William obeyed without c o m m e n t His respect for Mr. Carruthers had greatly increa- ed. Frank took a straw, and breaking off a piece with the empty ear attached, stuck it between his teeth. " I s that the right length, William-."' lie asked. "Bit too long, sir; but you'll have chewed it down proper by the time you get to B a r k e r ' s . " "All right.'' Frank passed out through the gate, and left William opining that ho " w a s the rummest gent as ever came to the house; one never knew if he was in e.irnest or ehaffing-like." Frank soon got rid of t i e straw which he,,ka.d4iiounted for William s mystiiicafton, andVeacbed the repository without any signsjof horsine-s about him. He had an interview with the t ght-legged proprietor, and for the next hour stood watching horses vrhit", horses b'ack, horses piebald, horses^urown, bay and che tnut, trotted u p X n d down the tan-covered way. He heird Mr. Barker eulogize each particular anrmal. He listened because he liked to study character — human, not equine — and was fascinated by a desire to know what Barker would say when each fresh screw appeared on the scene. But his silence as to his own opinion concerning tlie merits or demerits of each animal, and the calm, contemplative wa\ in which, smoking his cigarette the while, lie watched the horses pass anil lVpass, drove Mr. Barber almost to distraction.

This is nothing less than a 'spectacle mission,' a u d i t s bene '.ts will fall, not only on the very poor, but, indirect^, upon the very ignorant in hu:uble life.- i >r. Agnew approved it himself, and was going to endow it with hi •; name. It is a lamentable fact that >outh i- becoming almo-t as, dependent upon eyeglasses as age: and the increase of the necessity for them among young children is also noticeable. In most cases the trouble is due to the nature of the victim's daily labor. The mission would be of especial bene t to poor seamstresses, tailors, shoemakers, etc.. in the lowest grades of the work. The city holds thousands of such laborers to whom the price of a good pair of spectacles, properly titted to the eye, means self-denial in other directions for a month at least, while to many 'they are wholly unattainable, and the ruin of the sight inevitably results. The mission, if now started, will employ an oculist, and no charge will be made for the glasses; the only stipulation being an introduction from some reputable party. Physicians indorse the pr ject as a e< client one, and believe that it will remedy in a considerable degree the evil now so common among the poor, of wearing g asses quite unsuited to the eyes which they are supposed to ass i s t —Clara. Belle* VYhen an ofneer dies his praises are sung, All haste to extol him by pen or b.v tongue; If money/Is needed it tlows like a stream, That his widow and children may live us in dream. A ironumeiit then to his honor is raised. And every deed he has done must be pruisod. Hut The poor common soldier unnoticed may fall, Though he was as quirk to answer the rail As the other who shone in regimentals bright: And as firm and unflinching he stood in the tight. But his deeds are forgotton. none' herald his fame, The eagle should droop his proud wings with shame, Since those who had fought when the battle raged hot. Should thus be ueglected, unnoticed, forgot. Are they not worthy of honor and fame J They helped to save to the country a name, That Nations afar will respect and admire, Aud strive for a spark o/ the same kind of tire That burned in the h e t r t of each brave volunteer, When he left his loved home and friends that were dear. Not knowing he ever should see them again. When he stood where the bullets were falling like rain Mothers sent out their sous, so tender aud young, Knowing well how uncertain the strange balance swung; Knowing so well that the cold and the damp, The hot Southern sun and life in a camp. Would injure their health, if they escaped from the shell, The sabre's dread stroke or bullets that fell. Some came back again when war-time wus over, When the dark threatening cloud no longer did hover; And now that peace has blessed all the land, ''"'\ The soldiers arfifeiskcd in the background to stand; Not so with the officers, puffed up with pride, Let them ask what they will and they will not be denied: Should one ask for a seat in the president's chair, So many would help him his bark there to steer, Oh! why are they better than others who fought: Some languished in prison, ami thus could do naught But beat as it were their wings 'gainst the | bars. And longed so to fight "neath the* Stripes and the Stars. Our soldiers are fallhiL'. like leaves from the trees. And justice is calling to rotvmpeijse these Before they are swept off like the leaves that are laid. With the debt that is ( wen! them foreverunpaid. S h e r i d a n in S h e n a n d o a h . The blue racer was angry but not delirious over its early morning success. It knew it ha 1 a big - ay's work be ore it, and that it wa> to e n g a . e in a contest of skill as well as s t r e K g h .

' The two armies were so near th.it each could distinguish the movements being made by the other in the hurried preparations for battle. The marching to and fro o: 'troops, the r a p i d movement of t avalry, the yiag couriers and dispatch bearers, the rattle and whirl of cannon and i-ais-ons as artillery galloped into positi n, the hurrying forward of ambulances, the parade of an.munition wagons and the solemn procession of the stretchers, as seine shattered wretch, who had fallen early In the tight, was carried groaning to the rear, combined with the occasional roar of arti 1.cry, the sharp crack of random riiles. the nuinnur o( the niinie ball or swirl nf shell, as it clipped through the air occupied the early morning hours. The troops, tor the most part, when not in •lotion, threw themselves iu line upon the groun . an '. aw ite I orders. S0 U U ! ^0 ^| stories, oihcrs sangsongs. a few may have prayed, but all though' of home and loved ones and hoped tor heaven.

" P e t him alone, sir,'' said the great general; "he alone is brave who realizes his d a n g e r and dares face i t " Any other criterion would reduce bravery to stupidity and manhood to marble. The ' a y wore away. The blue racer had stretched 1 s length along the banks of the pe uan until it lay In battle array half a ound the town of Winchester, t h e s. Ires of which could be seen in the valley two OT three milts d i s t a n t Parly had made repeated attempts to break the lor atlon by massing troops against it at vario is points, but all his attempts had been unsuccessful, and his lines had been hurled back broken and disordered. T h e hospitals * n both sides by noon were crowded with wounded, while the sun shone down tierce and blistering on the dying and the dead who lay upon the field between the two armies. Now the blue racer begins to move. Brigades and dB isions hero and there advance over portions of the intervening space aud eveiy where meet with stubborn resistance. By •'> o'clock the eighth and nineteenth corps are thrice and the sixth corps twice repulsed, but still had advanced their lines and completed their connections. Then there came a lull. Artillery and musk, try alike are s i l e n t T h e ever active Custer is on the extreme right watching like a hawk urn pportunity to swoop down on Early's left flank; the infantry \ 6d the center, and on the left, in sight of Winchester an I Strausburg pike, Wil-'on watches and waits witti the third cavalry di\ ision. For the first and only tune during the war a battle was being tought under something like European conditions. Every acre of soil about Winchester had been mapped by skillful engineers of both armies, and each general knew what he had to encounter in the way of n a t u r a l obstructions, A test of generalship and prowess of troops was bein^' made such as had never before been witnessed In this country, and so far Earlv had been worste. l in every move. Phil. Sheridan was master o his part of the situation*? T h e i.ues:ion still to be d e e d e d was: "Can the men of the north sweep away the gray barrier of the south with its strength of earthworks, its cannon of brass and glittering array of s t e e l ? " The two armies were on almost e ual footing, playing the iron game of death for the rich harvest of the Shenandoah. As the troops stoo I in I'ne and wa'ched the sun siuk toward the west they read In its progress the terrible significance of the oay. It was to be a struggle to the death, the dreadful last hours of light, "in which one side battles to crush an I the other for saf ty under cover of darkness -a struggle in which th • dead and the wounded of friend and foe often remain on the field till morning-, th • iu u:ed to writhe in agony and perhaps die in despair for want of a sup of water. It is not n the heat of the conthct, when cannon rend the air, when musket and bugle and drum and clash of steel mingle with the yell of the combatants, or wl en man plunges bayonet or sword in'o his fellow's breast, that the hell <f war is seen f r then there is a grandeur and magni!'ci'rice in the awful tumult that bl-'nds the sig ,t and deadens the senses to the fearful surroundings: •but it is after the C'lni'ict is over, when the'-dead and the mutilated dying lie in confused heaps awaiting the knife of the .-urge n, the -haft of the angel of death, or the grave of the unknown. At last the designated ho r came. The b are of b, gles and the rat tie of d r u m s started simultaneously w tli the command " F o r w a r d ! " repeated fro n a thousand throats. The 1 lue racer, from right to le:t. was in motion, mo ing for • nrd on that cha>e that was only to end at Appo- "iat:ov . The instant the command "I-'orrd " was given the artillery from all . s grounds ot v a n t a . e began to pour lorth its missies of dea h into the enemy. aud t; e iebel ba lories iu their turn raked the fields over which the three corps were advancing, the n u n on the light skirm sh line dodging hither and thither as they moved forward toward. Winchester, until the were within t h e ' r a n g e of a Minie i a 1 of the < onfe crate lines, where the skirmishers lial ed. and the grand charge of the corps began. But why attempt to tell how this corps or that one pushed the enemy back or was repulsed to return again to the onset, or to describe how the batteries followed th" line from < ne position unto another, or how Custer saw his opportunity ami made his gallant charge < n the right and do ;b!ed Karly's left wing hack < n his center, or how Wilson let slip his golden opportunity to charg-- the pike from the left and shut the i onfederates into the pocket of Winchester. Pnough that all these things did occur, ami when darkness'spread over the earth .lubal Early and his command were whirling down the valley, and w thout l agga_*e seeking shelter behind the works at Fisher's Hill. The blue racer made its lair in Winchester that night, and an hour later the na tion was go n g w i l d over the tidings of th great victory. Phil. Sheridan's name was on a million tongues, and each tongue longed for a million mouths out of which to shout his name, but not one was moved to a<k in derision where he was born.— X. Y. Press.

For tliis report returns have been received from 812 correspondents, representinjs' 02'.Huwm hips, l i v e hmulred and tony ot ilmse reports are from 381 township* in the southern four [ tiers of eoum ii's. and 112 reports are] from 125 Imviisliips in I lie central conn- i ties. I The follow iny (inures relating to the , wheat crop ot 18S7 and to the acres in Wheat in May, 1SS\ are complied from ' the returns of supervisors who have made a hou.se-to-houso canvass, They are .subject to further revision, though no material cnan^es will be made. The number of acres of wheat harvested in 1887 was 1,075, 51*8. yield 22,7213,550 bushels an average of 13 and 56 hundredths bushels per acre. The total yield was 01,(JO'i bushels le<sthaa the October estiinaie of this Department. The total area was 22.075 acres greater than reported last year. This increase is all in t lie central and northern counties, ;md is doubtless largely due to spring wheat sowings after the supervisors had completed their canvass in 1887. The yield per acre in the southern counties averaged 1-'! and 45-hundredths bushels, which is lo-hundredths bushels less than the October estimate. In the central counties the average yield was a trifle more than a bushel less, and in the northern counties nearly identical with the October estimate. The number of acres in wheat' in May of this year was 1.501.()11. Multiplying: the acres in each county bv ' tbfe average yield as estimated by.crop correspondents, and footing: the products, gives 15,911.65:] bushels as the probable total yield in the State. Tins is an average per acre of 10 and 85- hundredths bushels in the southern counties, 8 and 59-liundredths in the central counties, and 12 and oO-hundredths in. the northern counties. More than one-fourth of the area seeded to wheat last tall is reported winter killed, ruined by insects, or otherwise destroyed. The number of bu-hcls of wheat reported marketed in the State in the eleven months, August -June, is 13,379,490. It is safe to estimate the amount purchased at elevators aad mills from which reports have not been received each month at :)50,0"" bushels, making a total of 13.729.( »00 brlhsels as the total amount marketed since August 1. These figure.-, warrant the statement that on July 1, there was not to exceed 1,200,000 bushels of the 188? r.Jieat Crop in farmer-/ hands in excess of their own requirements. Hy the estimates of correspondent- the amount in farmers'hand.- is 1,091.mil.) busluds, The total number of bu.-lwi- of wheat reported marketed durim/ the month! of June is oLi8,91:5. of which 102.189! bushels were marketed i., the first or' southern tier of counties; 105.791 bushels in the,second tier: 10.:)11 • bushel* i in the third tier; ^..).153 budicls in the fourth tier; 20,807 bushels in the fifth and sixth tiers; and 1,:)29 bushels in the northern counties. At 50 elevators and mills, or 21 per cent of the whole ntimber from which reports'have been received, there was no wheat marketed during the mouth. The condition of other crops compared with vitality and growth of avenge years is, for I he Mate, us follows: corn, 91 per cent; oats. 97; clover meadows and pastures, Mt; and clover sowed this year 9:5 per cent.

The fourth report of the civil service commission shows that between Ja'h. 16, lJSSrt, and June 30, 1S&S, 430 examinations were held in various parts of the country for the whole classified service; 13,905men and 1,887 women were examined, and 'J,21\J men and 1,53« women passed successfully. The total percentage of failures was 34 per eeut. men and 18.15 per cent, women. Of the suceessful applicants, 4,302 men and 131) women received appointments. It is a notable fact that sinee the enactment of the civil service law no women have been appointed from the following named stales and territories: Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Minnesota, Montana, New Jersey, Oregon. Utah, Washington and Wyoming. From each of the following states and territories but one woman has been appointed: Delaware, Maine, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico and Khode Island. Of the total number of ]>ersons appointed to the classified department service since the approval of the civil service law in 1S83, only 52 have been permanently removed. Of the 7fi resignations, four were reinstated. From Jan. 16, 1884, to June 30, 1887, 188 special pensiou examiners were appointed upon certification of (he commission, 90 of whom were appointed before March 4, 1888. The total number of special pension examiners removed since March 4, 18S.5, was 13, and the number resigned nine. The number of "separations" from the classified custom service from Jan. 1, 1886, to J u n e 30, 1887, was 69, of which uumber 46 w e r e by removal, 18 by resignation and five by death. The number of "separations" from the classified postal service during t h e same period was 943, of which number 451 were by removal, 4(59 by resignation and 23 by death. Of the appointments made during the period covered by this report, 20 w e r e claimants of the right of preference in civil appointments accorded to honorably discharged soldiers and sailors; and this is about the total number of such claimants who, during the period referred to, passed examinations for the classified departmental service. Six of the 20 were appointed in the interior department. Among the concluding paragraphs of the report are the following: "The act entitled an act to regulate and improve the civil service of the United States has been in force now nearly four years and a half, a part of t h a t time under the administration of one party and a part under that of another. That there has been accomplished in the execution of the law all that its inost sanguine friends expected is not asserted, but without any degree of inexactness in statement it may be said that in the results of its execution is shown the wisdom of the principle of divorcing the subordinate officers of the government from politics and elections, and making continuance in office dependent not upon party service, but upon merit and good behavior. In this respect the law has produced results which arc not extravagantly described as surprising. ••The demoralizing methods of the patronage s; stem of appointments have been replaced, within the classified service, by the better methods of the law, under which the demands of common justice are complied with, that in so far as practicable, all citizens duly qualified shall be allowed equal opportunity, on grounds of personal fitness, for securing appointment and employment in the subordinate civil service. "The patronage system is utterly at variance with the genius and spirit of our institutions, which will protest against the surrender to any party of the interests of the Nation, and refuse to consent that this irnvernmeut shall ever become what the patronage system developed into full fruition would make, a government of the officeholders by office-givers for office-seekers." The report was prepared by commission er Oberly and is signed by tho throe members of the commission, Mr. Lyman dissenting from tin1 regulation of 1S.H7 requiring the certffieation to the head of an office of the whole list of eligibles for promotion.

And thou shalt bring in tho table and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it; anil thou shalt briug in theeaudleatick and light the lamps thereof. 5.

And thou shalt anoint the altar of the b u r n t offering, and all his vessels, and sanctify the altar; and it shall be an altar most, holy. 11.

And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister unto me in the priest's office. 14. And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats. 15. And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office; for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations. 16 Thus did Moses, according to all that the Lord commanded him, so did he.

" An Informer Frustrates t h e Plan. By bold, timely action Inspector Bonfield of the Chicago police force, on t h e morning of the 17th iust,, probably saved the lives of himself and Judges Gary and Grinnell. In a small frame house in the vicinity of Ashland-ave. and Thirty third-st. were found 12 dynamite bombs, a revolver and a knife, and a^s tho owner .of tho articles stepped to the sidewalk he was arrested by Bontield in person and taken to the police station. Two other arrests were made later. When questioned as to what the prisoners intended to i\o, Inspector Bontield confined himself to saying: There was a conspiracy of long standhv: and it was about to be put into execution. They intended to use the dynamite on .Judge Clary, Judge Grinnell and myself. The chief prisoner is an old-time anarchist, and was prominent in the schemes of Haymarket times. Before making the first arrest Bonfield had the house surrounded by officers. J u s t as daylight was breaking the insjK'ctur was joined in the vicinity by a stranger, and a few moments later a man emerged from the house. Tlje s.t ranger nudged Bontield and • sthc officer closed on tho man. He made a desperate fight, but wasquiekly overpowered and placed in charge of two of the officers. Bontield ami the other officers then searched-the house, finding an even dozen dynamite cartridges, a large revolver and a dagger. Some4 bundles of letters and other papers which were taken by tho police were taken care of. At 3010 Qukin street two cither arrests were made. Inspector Bonfield is reported to have said privately that the plot was a well arranged one. About 20 determined murderers were in the conspiracy, and they were, at a certain hour after niidniirht on the 11th to be at. the homes of Grinnell, Gary, Bonfi'- lii, Frank Walln r. Gen. Stilles and others proininoul in the. prosecution of tin? anarchists. Dynamite was to be placed beneath the houses of these, and tho powerful explosive was to be touched off simultaneously. The board of trade w a s to be blown to the sky at the same time, and a whoiesaie reign of terror inaugurated. Mi's, Albert !£'. Parsons, the widow of one of tho executed anarchists, was seen by a reporter and told of the arrests. When asked if she knew anything about the matter, she became highly excited, and stated that if there was any conspiracy it had been hatched up by the police. "They haven't murdered any .anarchists-," sho said, "since November last, and they are thirsting for more blood. I don't believe there was a conspiracy only in the devilish imagination of Bonfield and his minions.'1 She grew more excited as she went on and finally said: "If Grinnelland Gary are not killed very soon I will kill them myself, and you can rest assured I will not make a botch of it." Pointing to her 10- year-old son, she continued: " W h a t d'o you suppose I am raising him for! I shall teach him that his father was murdered and by whom, and those red-handed butchers had better look out. Arkansas Brutality. The report of Dr. Cantrell to the Arkansas board of prison commissioners on the condition of the various penal institutions throughout the state shows that some of them are in a deplorable state. The Grand cam)), in Arkansas county, consists of one rough stockade, 20x20 feet in dimensions anil 1) feet high, in which 41 men are housed. There is no dining-room and the men are fed with plate and cup while standing. The sleeping arrangements are utterly abominable. The men are stretched out on a platform and their bedding consists of a common bagging and cotton seed bags, which are absolutely filthy, not having been washed in four years. The pen has no windows or grating, and but one small door. The diet consists simply of bread and meat the year round, and is very poorly prepared. Another stockade at the Palmer camp, of only 1S.SX24 feet and 8 Jeet high, w a s found to have NO convicts in it, but 2S of them were removed to another camp. Kven Ginger Ale Prohibited. Saloonkeepers in Buchanan county, Iowa, have been selling ginger ale which contained three per cent, alcohol. It was claimed that thc drink contained so little alcohol that a healthy man would have to drink a large quantity to become drunken. Judge Couch holds that if there is any malt in the beverage, and it would produce intoxication if taken in any quantity, it comes under the ban of thc law. This decision knocks the last prop from under the saloon interests in that district. Thc court granted a perpetual injunction against the buildings and tho saloon interests, and ordered the sheriff to close the saloons and sell thc fixturos to meet the costs. ••Bllnkey" Must Hang. Tho Ohio state board of pardons has refused to recommend the case of "Blinkoy" Morgan to the governor for either pardon or commutation. This practically seals his fate and he will hang on August 8. during the autumn and winter and everything was ready for the celebration of the first anniversary of Israel's independence: April, 1400 B. C. There had been spinning and weaving, fashioning and polishing of woods, melting and moulding of gold and silver into various utensils, vases, hooks and rings, according to tho pattern Moses had received The lesson to-day is the divincjy-gtven programme of Israel's new y e a r s celebration : (1) The sett ing up of the tabernacle; (2) its dedication; (Iff installation of priests. TIIK TAUEHNACLE. . The tent, constructed after tho pattern showed Moses in the Mount, is the most fully described of the three tabernacles mentioned in the Old Testament. The first one (the dwelling-place of Moses,) was placed at tho edge ofthc Israelitish encampment for convenient transaction of public business < Kx. 33:7), The second was thc Sinaitie tabernacle set up the first day of the first month in the second year after Israel left Egypt. The third was thc Davidic tabernacle erected in Jerusalem by David for the reception of the ark. The second tabernacle, the setting up of which is referred to in our lesson, is the one of greater prominence. Moses was commanded to have it constructed by voluntary contributions. It was so made, and of choicest materials. It accompanied Israel in all their migrations in the wilderness and in the conquest of Canaan; after which U remained stationary for long periods in var ions towns in Palestine. In the days of Solomon it was at Gibeon. It exceeded in costliness and splendor ihe cathedrals of modern times, compared with the wealth of the people of that d;'.y. The frame-work consisted of perpendicular hard wood hoards gilded, fixed into silver sockets and fastened by means of gold rings through which transverse bars were passed. Over the frame-work four coverings were spread, the first of fine texture darlc blue, purple and scarlet into which representations of cherubim were woven. The second cover ing-, somewhat larger, was of tine wool; the third was of red morocco and the fourth of a coarser, stronger leather, capable of re sisting storm. The inside hanging or draining, with its rich colors and figures of ehoru him, constituted a beautiful and costly tapestry, completely hiding the frame work. The out ranee was towards.the east and was closed by a curtain supported by loinwooden columns overlaid with gold. The interior w a s divided into two rooms. The holy of holies (about lf> feet square) was separated from the sanctuary fiiO.xlo) by the cherubim woven curtain, The veil separating tho holy of holies typified Christ's humanity which veiled the. Deity. The tabernacle proper was surround ed by a court 1¾) feet long by 7f> wide. which was enclosed by curtains suspended upon exquisitely finished columns. In the holy of holies stood the ark of the covenant. In the ark. besides the tables of the law, was the rod that budded, symbol of life from the dead: "I am the resurrection nm\ the life." In the sanctuary on the right w a s _._ ble with tho twelve loaves -&f^ snow-bread, to the left the table upon which rested the golden candle-stick, and between these was the altar of incense. In the court under the open sky was the altar of burnt offer• ings and between the altar" and sanctuary" the brazen laver. Everything pertaining to the tabernacle pointed to Christ. It. was intended forcibly to set forth the plan of iedcmption. ft symbolized the abiding presence'of. God with his people a n d t a u g h t the way of ae cess for sinful man. It symbolized the holiness of God. by the approach through tho court to the holy place, thence to thc holy of holies, where; were the tahles'of the perfect law. and the mercy s.'at of 'perfect love. Tho ark of testimony. So called because the engraved law of God within was a testimony of his will and of his perfect character. The ark was made of acacia wood three feet and nine inches by one foot and three inches, its height also one foot t h r e e inches. The body, covered outside and in with gold, was surmounted by a top of solid gold called the mercy seat, and resting up- I on this were cherubim, golden figures with i outstretched wings, a visible symbnl of in visible Power. Gold bunds wrought into I leares and flowers encircled the ark and two rods of acacia wood overlaid with gold passed through rings at tho four corners, by which the ark was to be lifted. These were never to bo removed. The law in tho ark beneath the mercy seat taught that the contro of all is righteousness; tho law must be in human hearts and written in human minds and exemplified i n h u m a n lives, if the kingdom of God be realized. Over the law was tho mercy seat, a symbol that humanity notwithstanding a broken law, was not left without hope. It also taught that through tho mercy seat one may reach thc perfection of righteousness. The mercy seat leads to right doing und protects from condemnation in failure to attain unto tho ideal.\ All of this was reached after and beyond thc altar of atoning sacrifice. s v Tho table of shew bread placed at the north side of the holy placo was made of tho same choice wood, overlaid with gold, and provided with golden rings at the corners and plated rod* for carrying it. The table was furnished with two plates for bread, two vessels for frankjgvenae ana cups for wine (the jdrlnk offefpg which accompanied the meat offering.) Upon the two plates were 12 loavea, six upon each, upon the top a saucer of frankincense. The bread was to be eaten by the priests at the end of the week, and the new bread brought fresh upon every Sabbath. It symbolized the need of the soul for wholesome nourishment: A table perpetually spread for humanity's spiritual necessities. The golden candlestick had one straight central stem, with three curved on either side rising to uniform height f this, as also the table of shrew bread was represented by carvings on the arch of Titus as spoils from the temple in the conquest of Jerusalem. I The sieins and arms of the candlestick were ornamented with represent* tions of almond blossoms, pomegranates and lily blossoms, the top iily holding a hemispherical lamp. (A talent of pure gold was used in making the candlestick which was estimated, aside from the sJoUeil work at «2S,000 in value.) The lamps (with a little spout at the side for the wick) were lighted a t the time of the evening oblation and kept burning during the night, the center one burning night and day. There were no windows in the tabernacle and the priests as they ministered knew no night or day for they walked in the light of tho candlestick, representing the light of God, —typo of Christ the spiritual light of the world. The central light, too, was » type of Christ, and t h e branches, of his church. Only one lampstand (a common base) denoted that in multiplicity there is unity, the number seven indicating completeness. The lamp burning in the darkness testified to the fact that in God there is no darkness' and that as vessels' in the spiritual sanctuary men were to be pure like unto gold, and the light of their acts was to issue from right motives—sincerity everywhere. The golden altar of incense. This was a foot and a half square and three feet high with a curved projection at each corner. This stood at the innermost end of thc holy place just before the inner veil and here incense was burned morning and evening in a censer set upon the altar, the censer also being of gold. The burning incense from spices constituted a sweet odor, and in connection the people were accustomed to p r a y ; thus prayers are spoken of as continually rising before God. This altar of prayer was reached by the light of the golden candlestick. The alter of b u r n t offering, made of the same wood as the other furniture, was overlaid with bronze or copper, instead of gold, with ornamental work. It was seven and a half feet square, and four and one-half feet high. The burnished parts were two feet from the ground lest the base become tarnished. The interior was filled with earth smoothed on tho top whereon was burned the sacrifices. It stood before the tabernacle to teach that access to the holy place (heaven) could be attained only by sacrifice. "The brazen laver" was a large copper vessel, standing upon a pedestal, filled with water for the use of priests who washed their hands and feet every time they would enter within the tabernacle. (This laver was made from thc surrendered mirrors of the women whose devotion counted it not sacrifico to dispense with the useful articles of the toilet.) The washing signified the moral cleanliness required of all- who would come into the, presence of God. Moses and Aaron washed in the appointed laver. However high the official position the law ofj purification is tlie same, none are exempt. Every man in the church should be characterized by external and internal purity. The office, however high, does not exempt from the law of cleanliness of heart and life. The court, of the tabernacle curtail; on closed, was 150 feet long and 75 wide. At the farther, or western end was the tabernacle proper. The screen :;rrund the court was of white linen suspended by hooks upon pillars of ae;i( "in-v-'ood seven and onehalf feet high. The base stood in a socket, of copper and tho-Kummits were overlaid with silver and connected by silver rods. The front entrance, (to the east, HO feet wide) was supplied with a finer curtain embroidered with colors and gold. This white linen enclosure typified separation of God's people from the world, igentiles wen4 not to enter,) and. Ihe enclosures within typified progress in holiness until perfection was readied.

As the material elements composing thc sacred place had been set apart, so priests, representative men, were to he consecrated to leadership in spiritual concerns. ' H e r e - tofore the head of every house had been its patriarch or priest, now men divinely called were to hold this position.

WELLS, RICHARDSON A C0.f Proprietor*, BURLINGTON, VT. An ugly e-umpiexitm made Nellie a fright, j H e r face wait all pimply and red, | Though her feature** were goocL, and her blue eye» were bright. "What a plain giri i» Nellie!" they said. But now, a» by magic, plain Nellie has grown As fair as an artist's bright dream; Her face, is as sweet a» a flower new-blown, | Her,cheeks a r e like peaches and cream. | As Nellie walks out iu the fair morning I light, Her beauty attracts every eye, And as for the people who called her a fright, '•Why. Nellie is handsome!'1 they cry. And I he reason of the chauge is that NHlie t..>ok Dr. Pierce's Goldeu Medical l>.*oovery, which regulated her liver, clear- , id her complexion, made her blood pure, her ' breath sweet, her fuce fair and rosy, and re moved the defects that had obscured her beauty.

(iood health, good morals, good sense and good tem|>er, are the four essentials for a good wife. These ate the indispensables. After them come the minor advantages of good looks, accomplishments, family i>osition, etc. With the first four, married life will be comfortable and happy. Lacking either, it will be iu mora or less degree a failure. Upon good health depends largely good temper and good looks, and tosomeextent good sense also, as the best mind must be affected more or less by the weaknesses and whims attendant on frail health. Young man, if your wife is falling into a state of invalidism, first of all things try to restore her health. If she is troubled with debilitating female weaknesses, buy Dr. P i e r c e s Favorite Prescription. It will cure her.

For dressy white wool costumes Bedford repped wool is used with the cord running from selvedge to selvedge. T h e M o x t e S e c r e t . It is three years since Lieut. Moxie first sent t h e rich South American nerve food plant called Moxie to Dr. Thompson, in Lowell, Mass. Since, over 8,000,000 bottles have been sold, and to-day it is undoubtedly the most popular beverage and nerve support in the world. It has become the ordinary drink of hundreds of thousands of people all over the world. This business has grown like a mushroom. When it was discovered to be a rich nerve food, there was a struggle to possess it. TaD-colored shoes grow In favor. English blouses are quite the rage. Sweet peas ore t h e favorite corsage tlower. Floral designs are revived for carpets. Colored net dresses increase in popularity. Lengthwise tucks are used on the upper p a r t of apron draperies. Folds of canvas or bolting cloth are still worn in the necks of dresses. Colored., out-of-door jackets and wraps are undoubtedly auperseding black ones. Blouse waists with yoke and short sleeves, which leave t h e a r m s free for swimming, are best liked for bathing suits. Among serviceable petticoats nothing is better than those of biscuit calico, with three flounces embroidered in self-color. A great many women buy umbrellas for their handles, and t h e more unique and conspicuous they a r e the better they like them. Tailor-made parasols to match gown and bonnet are among the last suggestions of the enemy—of which good dressers will beware. Nainsook dressing jackets are short and jaunty. They are profusely trimmed with Valenciennes lace, or adorned with fine embroidery. There is a rage at present for fancy jewelry in fiue gold and solid silver, both plain and oxidized. The dainty patterns are wholly novel. "Where are you going this summer, Mr. Cashboxf" "To Canada.'" " W h y so far?'' • I t is cooler there than at Sing Sing." It is not necessary to jump up and leave a room because a young lady says she will sing "Some Day." She may not sing immediately. In Pennsylvania the other day a cat was instantly killed by lightning. Manufacturers of the bootjack should at once apply for an injunction. A Baltimore man has patented a device for measuring ice cream. You can now know to a dot just how much ice cream your best girl is capable of holding.

"You can't fool the voters !'' shouts an esteemed contemporary. Well, no; it isn't necessary, anyhow.

For, tie "Bureau of Dairy Information," Chicago, 111. By W. A. Henry, Director of the Wisconsin Aicrlcoltural Experiment Station. Farmers w h o are j u s t starting into dairying a r e very a p t to overlook the value of skim milk a n d b u t t e r milk, and give these two by-products a luuch less important positirn t h a n they naturally occupy upon t h e farm. H a v i n g sold his eream to t h e creamery-men, or disposed of his butter, t h e dairy-man is? is a p t t o regard his transactions as completed, a n d looks upon t h e milk remaining in his cans after t h e removal of the cream, a n d the butter-milk which r u n s from the churn, as items too insignificant to be carefully saved and fed. This has a parallel in the wheat growing districts of t h e Northwest, where t h e straw-stacks are burned to get them out ot the way for the nexjt crop. One thousands pounds of full milk contain: Casein, 32 lbs. Milk sugar, 45 lbs. Fat, 36 lbs. Mineral matter, 7 l b s . If these one thousand pounds a r e perfectly skimmed, then there have been taken from it thirty-six pounds of fat, though usually about five or six pounds ot this will be left in the milk, because no system of creaming excepti n g the cenirifuf, e reduces the fat lower tha~rl* one half of one per cent. Nearly all of the casein, milk-sugar and mineral matter, and about five pounds ot fat then remain in our one thousand pounds of inilk after t h e cream has been taken off. Each of these constituents is very valuable, especially for feeding y o u n g animals. Milk is a perfect food in itself, and even after we have extracted the fat, it still possesses high feeding value. To feed it so as to get the highest value from it, it must be handled intelligently. F o r feeding calves, if possible, the skim milk should be sweet. T h e proper amount to feed is from twelve to twenty pounds per day depending upon the size and age of the calt, remembering that some animals can Hike considerable more t h a n this and thrive. The value of t h e milk will be increased by adding a little oil meal or bo'^ed flax seed to it, beginning with a table spoonful at a f e e d V n d gradually increasing until a pint of the oil meaj'or halt ot that of flax seed is fetf'TTaily.

Henry Fr»- lk:h of Kent, its a committee to escort Mr. Wells to the stage. His appearance was greeted with a round of hearty applause. After a few happy opening remarks, chairman Wells said: The/lirst election oi Grover Cleveland [cheors] put an end to republican dominiuiilu-lnis country. Tho second election of /Grover Cleveland [renewed cheers] will ring tho death knell of that worn out party. Toe young' men and the old men assembled here together constitute the invincible democracy of Michigan. We arc cheered by the knowledge that the federal unices are held by democrats. We have a head worthy of being associated in history with Jefferson and Jackson. We control the lower house, and will soon break up that plutocracy in tho senate so long held by tho republican party. The ]>eople have been taught that all material interests are safe in the hands of a man who has the moat exalted ideas of public duty japplause], who iiuds alone in the constitution the sources, the limitation and^ tho strength of his authority. He has done ail that a man and a good citizen could do.'xo bring about economy and simplicity of government. Wo are here to day to place in nomination on our state ticicet men who will bring to bear tho same purity and business integrity in the couduct of state affairs tha-t-our party has already done in natioual. We will see whether the state officials who have been in power so long in Michigan have done well or ill. When we elect our ticket [applause] we shall call the old state officers to account as to their stewardship We shall show in this national election that Michigan is true to the democracy. We will show that she is true to the traditions of the party, for a while held in abeyance, but recently expressed with a vigor and clearness never surpassed, by our beloved President Cleveland [loud and prolonged applause 1 and by the convention at St. Louis. We shall sec if the taxation, under the forms of law, which is nothing but robbery pure and simplo [cheers], shall continue. We are glad that the issue has been joined on this question. It is whether this country shall continue to take money from the pockets of tho people and pile it up useless in the treasury, or whether it shall be left with the peojsje to be used as they see fit. [Applause.] How light this vicious system is upon the rich monopolists, who flash like meteors through the streets in their carriages, which they have been enabled to procure, by their unholy gains through the workings of this iniquitious system of protection, and consider how heavily it falls upon every other householder in the land, even those in so-called comfortable circumstances. Monopolies, trusts and combinations of capitalists flourish in the atmosphere of a tariff which makes it a heavy burden for a poor man to live. I think that Michigan will show that she is willing to help throw off this incubus on her prosperity, which makes the rich richer and the poor poorer, i know not why all \vh«> have her good at heart are not with us. x-1 The national republican convention ignor- "TJl the request of this, the home of republicanism, to-honor her favored son, and gave the nomination to a man whose most urgent claim to recognition was that his grandfather was president [laughter], and another nmn whose most urgent claim was his wealth. We will welcome into our party the friends of this state of whatever party- not only to nur ranks but to leadership if they should prove worthy of our esteem and confidence, [cheers]. He urged the convention not to "shillyshally," but to speak indistinct and unerring tones tho words of positive yonvictiou. and thereby gain the confidence which the uprld always gives to the positive man. He concluded, amid great applause, with the prediction that Michigan would take her ulace with New York and Indiana, as they >-i n t an answering cheer bidding'"'Michigan in ciime on, Mr. Weston, on behalf of the state central v mmnittce, nominated Hon. Frank H.Thomas M' Cam, as temporary secretary, and he wa^ elected. Tin* secretary proceeded to call the roll of districts for committees and vice presidents, which were announced as they had been selected by the various caucuses in the morning. Mr. 1. M. Weston said he had received telegrams from Grand Rapids requesting tho appointment of a conference committee to confer with the greenback state convention to assemble there at 2 p. m, Ho moved tl e appointment of a committee consisting of one from each.district as a conference t-ommittce. After several amendments to the motion had been lost, the following committee was appointed: First'district.' W . W Wheaton of Wayne; socond district, John Shean of Washtenaw; third district, F. G. Goodyear of Barry: fourth district, Wm.G. Howard of Kalamazoo; fifth district, Albert K. lioof of Kent; sixth district, Frank L.

The amendment received one support and was defeated. A section on The pension question had been adopted by the committee, but was inadvertently left in the committee room, and tho report was referred to the committee to have the plank, inserted in the report submitted. In the mean time tall and massive Eugene Pringie of Jackson, addressed the convention in-re/ipouso to the continued calls. > The committedo mitted its report, included. The amendment in favor of the abolition of tho doctoral college w a s referred back to the committee, the convention being wholly out of sympathy with it and unprepared to take action upon it. An addition to the pension plank, reading as follows, was submitted by a delegate from the fourth district: " W e demand action by congress before it adjourns." Capt. Charles Manly of Aun Arbor, did not think this addendum necessary. Gen. G. B. Rutherford of Hart, favored taking the most liberal stand possible. Tho amendment was then adopted without a dissenting voice and a cheer for the soldiers given. The resolutions in full are as follows: 1. The democracy of Michigan, assembled in convention for the nomination of state> officers, recognizing the fact that its chief duty is to present to the .people candidates whose election will bring to the administration of state affairs integrity of character, purity of purpose, and sound business methods, reaffirms its adherence to the traditional And established principles of the democratic party in respect to national politics. f" L*. We renew the expression of our approval of tho administration of President Cleveland, which has won tho respect and confidence of the ]>eople, and justified his renomination, in respouse to the universal sentiment of the democracy, bv his uuwearied devotion to public d'bty, liis courageous maintenance of democratic princi pies and his enforcement of pure, just and impartial methods of administration in all departments of the government. To him, as the chosen standard-bearer of the national democracy in tho preseut campaign, and to his associate, Allen G. Thurman, the tried statesman, distinguished by a long life of public service, which has boon illustrated by high ability and perfect integrity, and fruitful of benefit to tho people, we pledge our best efforts, to the eud that Michigan may be once more enrolled in the list of democratic states. :<. Lpon the chief question of national politics, tho relief of tho people from the burdens of tariff taxation, we declare our unalterable opposition to the present tariff policy of the republican party. We affirm our approval of the last annual message of President Cleveland as an accurate expression of the just and traditional democratic principles, which should govern tho whole subject of revenue reform and the reduction of the surplus in the treasury. We declare our adherence to the platform adopted by the natioual democratic convention at St. Louis; and we approve of our democratic representatives in congress in their efforts to secure a reduction of tariff taxation, thereby preventing tho furthor accumulation of a dangerous surplus in the treasury, and relieving the people from the burdens of a war tariff. We believe that this result only can bring tho policy of the government on'this subject in harmouy with the constitution, tho true interest of the people, the just demands of labor, the prosperity of all industries, and tho adequate development of the resources of the country. 4. Though more than twenty-three years have elapsed since the war, we should not forget that a large number of that gallant and patriotic army that preserved to us an undivided country is still among us. With increasing years and increasing disability, the result of their privations and hardships, we believe the general government should deal justly with them, and that liberal pensions should be granted to the wounded and disabled, not as a charity, but as a debt due them fur inestimable services rendered their eoiudry. and we point with satisfaction and approval to the liberal construction of existing pension laws by the present ;i I'ninistratiun, resulting in a large incre. i-c in the amount annually paid to the vorerj.n». and we urge action by congress at its present session upon the pending pension measures. a. The dein-HTucy of Michigan, believing in the dignity of American labor, recognize the right of wage workers to tho fostering care of government, that the legitimate industry iu every walk of life may be encouraged in its work of building up the material interests of the state, C). The ownership of real estate in this country by foreign corporations ami nonresident aliens is injurious to American interests and should be prohibited. 7. We favor the adoption of measures providing for the health and safety of those engaged in mining, manufacturing and building industries. "v We demand the repeal of all class legislation undorwhich monopolies have been fostered and protected. 0. We demand that congress shall restore to the public domain for settlement, all lands granted to railroads or other corporations which have not been earned, and more particularly do we demand the forfeiture, of all unearned grants of lands in the uprer peninsula, that that portion of the state may no longer be deprived of its natural growth ami development. Hi. The multiplication in the state of petty boards, commissions and officials, with «ueh powers and surroundings as insure 'neither official responsibility nor the respect of the legislature or the people, leave the matter of appropriations-for state institutions largely controlled by log-rolling combinations, and to this as well as to lack of system we attribute the great and constant increase of expenditures. Therefore we submit that the case is one demanding the election of a legislature, anil state officers free to make the changes which economy and good business methods may dictate. 11. The doctrines of home rule and local self-government, are. cardinal principles of the democratic party.' Therefore we cordially sympathize with the people of Ireland in the grand contest which they are making under the leadership of Gladstone and Darned tor the right to have the management of their own affairs. After the reading of the resolutions, Kev. II. J. Lewis, of East Saginaw, one of the leading colored ministers of the state, and a delegate from the eighth district, addressed the convention in a s]>ceeli which seemed to electrify the vast audience and he was greeted with deafening cheers, At the close of Lewis' speech the committee on conference with the Greenbackers submitted the following report: To the Convention—The committee of conference appointeed by this convention beg leave to report that they have agreed with the conference committeo of the greenback convention, subject to the approval of each convention, upon the fullowlowiitg divission of officers: This convention to nominate Governor, Licutenat-Governor, Secretary of State, State Treasurer. -Superintendent of Public Instruction ami Momberof the State Board of Education. The Greenbackers to nominate Attorney- General. Commissioner of Land Office, and each -convention to nominate Hon. Bartley Breen for Auditor General, and that upon tho electoral ticket this convention to nominate ten and the Greenbackers three. The Democrats to nominate tho t w ) eleotors-at largo and for the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth. Sixth, Seveuth, Ninth and Tenth and the Greenbackers to nominate electors for the Second, Eighth and Eleventh Districts, and iu order to carry this out harmoniously this committee recommends to the convention Joseph M. Sterling, of the Second District, as one of the electors-at-large. The ticket thus constituted to be cordially supported by tho two parties. All of which is respectfully submitted. After this report had been adopted t h e convention adjourned until 8 o'clock, and when the convention reassembled at this hour, W. W. Wheaton of the committee then road the following telegram : ''The greenback convention has approved the action of conference committee, and has nominated Adolphus A. Ellis, Ionia, for attorney- general; Col. S. W. Fowler, Manistee, for commissioner of land office; indorsed Bartley Breen for auditor-general; for electors, J. C. Blanchard, eleventh ilis trict; Dr. A. W. Nichols of the eighth, an.l C. H. Dewey of tho second." On motion of J a s . P. Murtaugh, the net ion of the greenback convention was ratified by the unanimous vote of the convention. The roll of districts was then called for the nomination of presidential electors, with this result: First district--S. Dow Elwood. Third district -Wm. B. Thompson. Fourth district—Wm. Killifer. Fifth district- -Wm. B. Canters. Sixth district,--Josiah W. Begole. Seventh district -Thos. M. Crocker. Ninth district- George Goodsell. Tenth district- Wm. McArthur. Tho nominations were unanimously ratified by the convention. On motion of a delegate from the seventh district the nomination speeches were limited to five minutes each. The call of districts for the gubernatorial nomination was taken up, but no candidates wore named until the tenth district was reached. T. A. E. Woadock of Bay City took the stage and in plain, direct and forcible language urged the nomination of Wellington R. Burt. His advocacy of Burt up on the busis of Cleveland's message brought down storms of applause, but not until Don M. Dickinson's name was reached did the convention fully show its enthusiasm, and again was it repeated when his climax with the name of B u r t came. Chauncey Wisner of East Saginaw sexonded the nomination of Burt iu a speech greeted with wildest applause at frequent intervals. P e t e r White of Marquette rose to second, in behalf of the eleventh district, the nomination of Mr. Burt. He pledged him Unvotes of that district and movod his nomiua tion by acclamation. Edwin F . Uhl of Grand Rapids arose to support the motion to nominate Mr. B u n by acclamation. " H e ' w h o stands by th, President's message, by the national plat form, by our platform, is a democrat of the democrats, and one around whom we can all rally." Gen. P a r k h u r s t of Coldwator said that he had boon almost carried-jaway by tho ei > quence of tho nominating speeches, but h" thought this was a matter that ought to be considered carefully. He therefore moved that t h e convention adjourn till IUU.IH, F n day. The motion was lost and the nmt-ii to suspend the rules and nominate Mr. Bur. by acclamation was adopted by an over whelming majority. As soon as Mr. Burt wa^ formally d< d a r e d tho nominee a blue, silicon banne; bearing a portrait of the nominee, :ca draped with the stars and stripes-ant , bandana, were brought on the stage an a •.undelegates again let their voices run wild, Mr. Burt was conducted to 'the plat for , and said : I fully appreciate the great honor of boin„ selected to head the ticket of this givu state, and by such a convention as this, and I also fully appreciate the ivsponsiei,u,\. but I can say to you that I accept the no n imition in all its bearings. It is n it ouh vi honor to be selected here as the staiMar,, bearer of this great party, but it i s a g r e a i c honor to be placed on a ticket with such men as head the national ticker. Grove- Cleveland and Allen G. Thurman. ( Ai> lav.se.i It is an honor of which any net. might he proud; yes, and I say to you t r.i J am proud. With such a national tie.-ie aud such a platform (applause), which give • | us an issue, something upon which we iwu j stand, something that HO man need i j ashamed of, and a message that is not on Is bold but just to the American people, a m.-s sage that 1 fully indorse [long continue I applause and cheering), any man may n> proud to receive such a nomination. Gentle men, we have not only a message, but we have a national platform that is equally good. The platform made at St. Louis was equal to the message, and I heartily indorse them both. Not inly have wo the platform made at St. Louis, but wo have a pia't'oriu adopted by you to-day which is equally good, and that I fully indorse, and I think it is the best, platform that Michigan has overbad. (Continued applause.) Wo have an issue, and while we may differ upon the small details of carrying it out, the whole public, almost regardless of party, demand a^revision of the tariff and the tariff laws. Wc are all united on this, and when you come to the statu of Michigan we find that all parties are demandimr-to--tta-y-t-h-at'Aw tariff should be reduced. With(10,000,0.«> of people you could hardly expect every man to be fully satisfied, aud the only way 1 know of getting at this is to compare notes, and secure the greatest good to the greatest number. (Applause.) We are going into this campaign, and I say we are going into it to win. We have come to an understanding hero to-day and perhaps while we do not Hgree upon tinsmall things or upon details we are in fr.e main united, and I will stand with tae democratic party, and will go as far as any mail for a reduction of tho tariff and a re vision of the tariff laws, [Applause,] Now as to our congressmen. Th»y have been elected and sent tnere by the people, and their fight has been in the right dime tion. tariff reform, and I say that I indorse the action of our congressmen in the iiire-t line of this groat reform. (Applause] While I am of Michigan and would natur ally stand up for Michigan's rights jealous ly. I am not standing here to accuse any man of not doing the best ho could in c m gross or in other places. I am not hero to find fault, and I .say to you Unit I endorse their action in 1he dir. c' line of :he:r el' forts,and in accordance with the P r e s i d e n t s message and the" platform. This campaign is to be a lively one, and we have a platform that we are satisfied with, I believe, and we are satisfied with the national platform. All we have to do in presenting the matter to the people ol Michigan is to lay the platforms side by sicki and ask 'hem which they will tele': whether they want, to give a free blanket r«. the poor or free whisky, | Applause] That is about the difference in the platforms' They say I c t u s have free whisks', and \s <• say take the taxes off llie mvessarh . n life, ]Applause| We have had to ;n. . ; before the cry of bloody shirt, but i» M- :,, to me that cry is out of date. W<- h.., now another issue, ami I apprehend ;>,,.. the democrats intend to Haunt some! hiu in the face of the republican party. -1-,:11-- thing although it is red is not the bloody shirt, but is the red bandana (laughter and applause), and with a man like Thurman the very sight of the red bandana will give us courage. Now, gentlemen, I accept the nomination aud pledge myself to do the best in my power to take Michigan over into tho solid democratic line. [Applause.] At the close of Mr. B u r t ' s speech, three more lusty cheers were given him. Chairman Wells then announced that he had a communication from tho greenback convention to the effect that the greenbackers heartily ratified the nomination of Wellington R. Burt. Vice-President A r t h u r M. Clark, of Lexington, took tho chair when nominations for Lieutenant-Governor were called for. The first district's nominee was presented by Willium P . Wells, who named William B. Morau for tho position in a scholarly address. After several delegates had seconded tha nomination of Mr. Morau, that gentleman was named for lieutenant-govenor by acclamation. The names of Gen. Rutherford and Gen. ParkhUrst were presented for secretary of state, Both gentlemen, however, withdrew and the name of Thomas D. Hawley was presented. The rules were suspended aud Mr. Hawley was nominated by acclamation. For state treasurer tho names of A r t h u r Meigs of Grand Rapids, John D. Norton of Poutiae, Matthew H Wilson of Muskegon, and Col. Fowler of Manistee, were presented. Two votes w e r j taken, tho first resulting as follows: Total number of votes cast, 7T2; uecessary to a choice, &S7; Arthur Meigs, 311; John D. Norton, 34«; Matthew H. Wilson, 115. And tho second: Number of votes cast, 771; necessary to a choice, 38(>; John D. Norton, 45'J; A r t h u r Meigs, 304; Matthew H. Wilson, 8. Mr. Norton's nomination was made unanimous. For the office of superintendent of public instruction, Stuart MacKibbon of Manistee, was nominated by acclamation. For member of tho state board of education the name of Charlos E. King of Washtenaw, was presented by Judge Joslin and the rules were suspended and his nomination made by acclamation. The thanks of the convention were then tendered to its officers by resolution, and at 10:40 the convention adjourned with three rousing cheers for Wellington R. Burt. Tho Greenbwok Convention. Tho greenback convention was called to order in Grand Rapids by W. D. Fuller, who addressed tho convention briefly alluding to tha history of the party, closing as follows: A crisis had arrived in the history of the greenback party and if tho party died iu this campaign, yet its history. was bright. Tho reforms it had favored would make it immortal: While we have been willing to work with another minority party we never agreed to strike the greenback flags, and if any party thought there was no strength in tho greenback party, let them try it on. H. B. Hudson, of Mancelona, was introduced as temporary chairman and was received with great applause. Mr. Hudson on taking the chair made soino brief remarks, thanking the convention for the honor and stating that he could never believe the men who bound themselves together in l-s7s, lssn and l^S'i would surrender these principles. He believed that when tho convention adjourned the people wopld know what they wanted. He was a protectionist, but it was for the protection of American homes and not the taxing of tho uecessarios of life for the benefit of the monopolist (applause). Whatever the convention did let it adjourn as the greenback party of the state of Michigan. Jacob Barr, of Grand Havon, was chosen temporary Secretary. Committees on resolutions, organization and conference were appointed. The committee on permanent organization reported J. R. Whiting, of St. Clair, for permanent chairman, Jacob Danr, of Ottawa,.for secretary, and Charles Dewey, of Lenawee, for assistant secretary. The order of business was report of conference Committee, report of resolutions, nominations. Representative .if. R, Whitiiur was introduced by 1). W.-Fuller as a live congressman. On taking tho chair Mr. Whiting thanked the covention for the honor and was piouu to preside over a greenback convention, because that party believed in live issues. Tho, Green hack party believed thai the present tariff was a menace to the prosperity of the people, and that was the main issue to-day, and the Greenback party should join to bring about the reforms so necessary, and it was in no sense an offering for sale of the party. They could ask for nothing which was not sensible and would not tend to relieve the distress of the country. Pending a report of the committee on conference, at 3:30 a recess of half an hour was taks-n and when tho convention re-assembled tho committee on resolutions presented t i e following platform, which was adopted: 1. The greenback party was organized to protest against the funding laws, national bank system, unscrupulous monopolies and class legislation that formed the sacred love of the republican party. It had for its further object the perpetuation of the legal tender greenback as the proper currency of lill* t J u t i o n for all time to the absolute'exclusion of bank issue of moneyr1trsaw"that - the greenback fought the groat war of the rebellion to a glorious close, proving conclusively that it is the only form of public credit the American people will over need iu any national emergency, however perilous or distressing. The greenback party reaffirms its conservative utterances in past platforms against a bonded debt, against a banking system for the issue of money, whether national or state, against any law of any kind that discriminates in favor of tho few; and thus re affirming, proud of its wholesome influence upon public policy aud determined to continue the exercise of that influence for the common welfare, it refuses to disband while monopoly and monoy trusts and jobs, subsidies and bribers presume to rule the country. It now as heretofore demands of the government that it exorcise fully ahd alone its sovereign power to issue money and regulate its value. It, demands the payment of tho bonded debt in accordance with the law, as rapidly as possible, and protests for all future time against the issue by the. nation of another interest-bearing bond, either through refunding or to meet any unusual expenditure in peace or war. We also demand a state law which shall fairly aud equitably divide taxation on real estate between the owner of the foe and the holder of the mortgage lions l hereon, whether such mortgagee be a resident of the state or otherwise. The greenback party, in harmony with intelligent, organized workingmen, distinctly demands laws for the protection of hon- Pest labor; not HO much in tho form of imp rt duties, but rather by penal statutes leveled at railroad wrecking, stock watering, pauper and contract, immigration, convict and child labor, corners, trusts, combines and pools. Strikusnnd boycotts are equally deplorable whether invoked by capital or labor. In place of these and dynamite or Plnkerton murderers wo ask for conciliation, mutual esteemfond impartial arbitration. ' f The greenback party further declares for the absolute forfeiture of Jail unearned land grunt* andr-tlje careful preservation of the public domuiu ftHf^noLual settlers, ulso> for the reduction of taxation to tho needs of a frugal, economical jadministration. The greenback party/uot only "cordially sympathizes with temperauoe and morality," but most oiuphitleally demands that such laws shull be euacted, oven to changes in the constitution, as may seem necessary to remove from our midst the blighting curse of intemperance, it being our earnest conviction that the people cannot long enjoy the blessings of liberty, peace, happiness, prosperity and pure government one-half drunk and one-half sober. \Mith sincere gratitude wo express our admiration for the patriotism and heroism of the soldiers and sarlors who defended the flag and the union. We believe the time has come to grant every soldier and sailor U service pension and the uqualreation of his pay to the standard of gold, tho same as the bondholders received, and that disabil ity pensions should begin from date of dis ability in all cases. We therefore declare for the repeal of the dato clause of the ar rears of pension act, and to ment the addi tional expense of the generous treatment we would extend to soldiers and sailors, we favor a graduated income tax and a new is sue of legal tender irreenbacks. Giving due credit to Pre udont Cleveland for the appointment of Gou. JohuC. Black to tho head of the pension bureau, we thank tho brilliant and gallant pension commissioner for his uuoqu-alod devotion to the claims or pensions of disabled and diseased soldiers and in this connection further wo thank the- fusion members of congress from Michigan for their earnest efforts under the lead of Gen. James B. Weaver to defeat the Wilkius bank bill. RKSOLVKD, Tnat taxation of the people for other purposes than raising revenue for the expense of the government economically administered, is robbery under the form of law. We are therefore in favor of the revision of the unjust tariff and its adjustment to a revenue basis. Tho committeo of conference reported the agreement as to fusion made with tho democratic;coufereuoe committeo and the report of the committee was adopted amid great applause. Gen. W. P . Iunes was introduced and made a fow r e m a r k s indorsing the plat form. W. D. Fuller presented a resolution that Strecter and Cunningham be declared the nominees of tho national greenback party for president and vice president. The motion was laid on the table temporarily. The appointment of a state central committee was taken up. The committee, by districts, is as follows : Second district—C. H. W. Keogh, Hillsdale. Third district—C. C. II. C. Bailey, Branch. Fourth district—N. H. Barnhart, seph; T. M. Sheriff, Kalamazoo. Fifth d i s t r i c t - L . T. Kinney, Kent; D. C. Wochs, Ionia. Sixth district—Edward Brown, Clinton : A. E. Cole, Livingstone.

Fowler, Manistee. Tenth district -H. A.Wilson, Clare. M North;' Tuscola. Eleventh district—John C. Blanchard. Bois Blanc, (Jen. W. P. Iunes of Grand Rapids, was elected chairman of the state central com mittee by acclamation. The convention at once proceeded to num iuate the, candidates apportioned by th'.' groenbackors: W. I). Fuller pros >nted the name of S. W. Fowler of Manistee tor coifimUsionor of the state land office. David Parsons of Wayne was presented by C, 11. Dewe.s There wore several other seconds ami Mr Fowler was finally nominated by iicclama tion. John C. Blanchard presented the name of A. A. Ellis of Ionia for attorney-geneval. There wore a number of se-otnls and Mr Ellis was finally nominated by a risiic.r veto amid cries of "EUhi." The nominee took the platform and made a short speech, stat ing that he would work hard for the victory of tho union ticket, The following were chosen electors: So-, oral district -C. H, Dewey; Eighth A W. Nichols; Eleventh- -J, (', Blanchard. By a viva-voce vote Bartley Breen w.-,.-, indorsed for auditor general. The Stroeter and Cunningham resolution was then kikon up, and after considerable discussion was passed, with an understanding that it was not binding on the election A recess was then Uken till S o'clock. After re assembling the convention re mainod in sessiou till 10 p. m., ratifying each nomination and listening to speeches.

Tho horses trotted on, and F r a n k sauntered back to Hazlewood House smiling placidly. In the afternoon, to Miss Clauson s supreme astonishment, the new purchase arrived. She and Frank were in the garden at the time. The bay was place t in Mr. Giles's charge, and that personage, after inspecting it, rejoiced for two reasons; the first, that Mr. Barker had not " b e s t e d " Frank; the second, that even if Frank had " b e s t e d " Mr. Barker the horse must have cost a pot money, and at ' w h a t e v e r figures his, William's, introdttcfioe a i g h t ),)0. assessed, the backshish- O l m b e worth having.

" H e gavo her one of his quick glances. Beatrice turned away, ashamed to feel t o l l t h e was blushing. She was very cold and reserved d u r i n g the evening, yet the audacious yonng man chose to take it for granted t h a t she would accept him for her cavalier vice Purton superseded. Young P u r t o n was too shy to offer his escort on the next morning—ho feared lest he might wear out his welcome. So his ride was a solitary one. J u d g e his atter disgust when, quietly trotting along, lie encountered Miss Clauson and Mr. Carruthers, the latter mounted on a steed, the like to which Mr. Purton had for years longed to own, and, moreover, J Ming as if he knew all about I . T h e sight was very bad for young P u r - ton. Had he been poetical he might have compared himself to the eagle struck by his own quill. As it was, he muttered, " A jolly sell, by Jove!', and after the unavoidable greetings and Mr. C a r r u t h e r s ' inevitable bit of baudiage, rode home in a disconsolate state. C H A P T E R XU I. UAKTmiNOMlC AND KKOTIC. The long vacation w*s r u n n i n g down to the lees. August had passed into September, and September had stolen away. Yet Frank Carruthers still lingered at Oak bury enjoying his cousins'hospitality. Having assumed the post of mental physician to Miss Clauson, he was no doubt reluctant to resIgn It until he had effected a rad cal cure. n plain English, Frank had fallen In love with Beatrice, In that good old-fashioned way, almost at first s i g h t He had gone down before her gray eyes as surely as had the susceptible Sylvanus. Would he fare any better? About this date he often asked himself the above mies.tion; tor he had by u o w made the curate's acquaintance, a n d learned that he was a rejected man. He diit not learn it from Beatrice, who, like every true woman, w shed to hide, an1, it possible, forget the story of a man's discomfiture. He did not leara it from Horace or H e r b e r t Although they were as loud of gossip as men a l w a y s are, wild horses would not have r e n t such a confidence from their kindly hearts. Sylvan us himself was F r a n k s i n f o r m a n t The energetic, bustling curate had returned to Oakbury. During his absence tee Talberts had requested l e a t r i o e to decide a* to the terms if int raaey which should for th • future exist between Hazelw od House and Mr. Mordle. Beatrice quietly told her uncles that it was her particular wish that tlie Kev. Sylvanus should he received on exactly the same tooting as heretofore. So when Sylvanus returned lie was in formed that he might tricycle himself u p to Hazelwood House as often as he chose. «o Mr. Carruthers a » d the «07816 met frequently. T h e y recognized ea«h other's good points and were soon on terms of friendship such as iicti&a, at least, seldom allows to exist between rivals. Rivals is perhaps the wrong word, fox if any stray fragment of hope c l u n g to Mr. Mordle's portmanteau and so returned with him to i ngland it was swept away forever and ever as soon a< the owner saw F r a n k and Beatrice togetlier. It was no doubt the desire to prove l a * i ontestably to himself that he was cured that made him in a moment <&t brisk confidence tell F r a n k how he had fared. T h e manner in w..i h the commun cation was made showed F r a n k t h a t his own secret was no se.'ret from Mordle. if lie did not meet confidence by confidence he made no attempt at deception. He looked at Mordle with a curious smile. "You scarcely e\]*ect me to say I am sorry.'" he asked. "No. Want no sympathy. Only want you to be sure that when the time comes to congratulate you I can do so with all my heart." " A h ! " said Frank, smiling. "Noble, very noble. When the time comes,'' he added softly. Thereupon he fell into a train of though*—a train which ran upon a single line and always took him to one particular station At this juncture the Talbert's gave a dinner-party a man s dipner-party. The following were the blessed recipients of invitations; Lord Kelston. who was staying for a few da>sat his place, Sir John Williams of AlmoiuLthorpe, Colonel White the ollicer commanding the regiment at the neighboring; barracks, Mr. Fallon, the polished l.oi al Acade.i leian who was sojourning at the village, and making outdoor sketches of autumnal foliage, and Mr. Fletcher of the Hollows, the largest landowner, save Lord Kelston. in the county, 'These, with Frank and the hosts, made a party of eight -- the number wh ch. according to an axiom of the Talberts, should n ver be exceeded. But two days before it took place an even: happened, which threatened it ill. Lord Kelston wrote Horace one of those pleasant tamiliar letters, which, coming from a lord, are always delightful. He sai.l he should take the liberty of bringing his friend Mr. Simmons w i t h ' h i m . As this would raise the number to nine, it necessitated asking another man in order to equalize the sides of ihe table. Then came consultation high and earnest. Whom could they ask upon so short a notice worthy of forming one of so distinguished | arty? Each of the Tal berts would have been insulted had he -beea-aske-i-by—a friend t o - s t o p a gapr~so" following the golden rule they shrunk from the task before them. Still they could not have four on one side of the table and three on the other. Frank listened to their solemn deliberations for some time, then tried to help them out of the difficulty. " L e a v e me o u t , ' ' he said, "Beatrice and I"—he spoke of her sometimes now as Beatrice— "will dine together In the nursery or the housekeeper s room. Whittaker can bring the dishes straight from your table. It will be delightful." "My dear F r a n k ! " This joint exclamation showed tne utter futility of his suggestion. " W h y not ask the rector.' 1 thought it was the duty of a country clergyman to meet emergencies like this!" " H e talks about nothing but his fishing," said Horace ru< urntully. "Fishing for what? For men'."' "No; salmon and trout," answered Horace, as usual t a k i n g the matter prosaically. 4 " W h y not Mordle? He Is capital comp a n y . " "Ha-hum, " said Horace, glancing a t Herbert. " T h i s is scarcely a curate's p a r t y . " "No, scarcely," said Herbert, s h a k i n g his head. At last they decided! to ask a Mr. T u r n - er, but the decision was arrived a t with misgivings; for Mr. T u r n e r was In trade. He was, however, a merchant p r i n c e - even a merchant emperor—and, as Horace expressed it, was a member of the aristocracy of wealth. They felt t h a t Mr. T u r n e r might be asked at short notice, and would not be offended when he heard it wa.s to meet Lord Kelston. This is one of the many advantages of entertaining lords. ! Nevertheless they were conscious-strick- j en a having asked anyone to stop a gap, so made amends by arranging their guests so that Mr. T u r n e r should sit on Herbe.t's left hand; Horace's supporters being Lord Kelston a n d his friend Mr. Simmons. T h s latter was a man of middle age. with dark eyes and exquisitely chiseled a i itiu • features, and wearing an air of refinement which at once commended him to Horace. T h e dinner began propitiously, and progresse I faultlessly. n the course of conversation Horace learned t h a t Lord Kelston's friend was Mr. S i m m o n s the noted barrls er who had so suddenly s p r u n g into eminence. Mr. Simmons was a .'ew of gentle birth and education and Horn e was very fond of high class Jews. No the two men got on admirably. Frank also kteew who Mr. rtimmons wa-i. .ierbert did not. All went on as well as the Tal h e r s could have wished until the claret \wis placed on the table. Then an aw ul t h i n g occurred—a contretemps, which to this day is a sore subject with Horace and Herbert. t all arose from inviting the stop-gap. Listen Mr. T u r n e r , as leaders of commerce ar•• very proper y in the habit of oiug. beg^n talking about England s commen- a condition. H e spoke in his biggest voice. As he was treading upon a sub ect upon which he was an authority, he felt he had a right to use I t Herbert listened with h « gentle polite smile, but felt sorry Mr. T u r n e r h d been invited. " W h a t is ruining I'.'ng'atid?" boomed out Mr. T u r n e r . "I'll te I yon. my dear sir. T h e J e w s are ruining I n g l a n d . ' As Mr. T u r n e r must know b e s t Herbert simply bowed in acquiscence. Horace in the meantime was saving to Mr. Simmons, "It is an undisputable fact t h a t the .Jews are the most loyal, pa ri tic race under the sun. Tlieir cleverness no one denies. In the linen the emotional arts, such as music and poeiry it is generally admitted that a man in us: have a strain of Jewish blood in him to rise t> e m i n e n c e . " Here Mr. Simmons bowed and smi e !. "Head one of the trade g a z e t t e s , " continued Turner, fiercely. " I would not be able to understand t ' urged Herbert. "Read t h e list of bills of salt*, " shouted Turner, "-'ee the Levis, the Abra ams, the Moseses, who are battening on •>< rrowers. The J e w s are the c u r s ' of the country. 'They are sucking out its blood and marrow " And Horace, who although he shuddered at Mr. T u r n e r ' s strident nines, avoided listening to his words, was saying to his neighbor— " I n the law and in statesmanship we have living' proofs. And as to that branch of which 1 und rstan nothing, commerce, . we have but to mark the deca> of Npain after the persecution and expulsion of your gifted nation.'' But Mr. Simmons did not he;ir this compliment. He was listening to Joudi-voiced Turner. "Look at Austria! IJuined All the land in their hands, time would come ugaln whi'ii students a t Pesth —" " P e s t h is in H u n g a r y , " said softly. " H u n g a r i a n students, then. 'The time should be again when they used to go of a m rning and rake over the ashes of burned Jew> to find the gold pieces they had swallowed.'' Everybody heard this coarse an I biufal wish. Mr. Simmons' lace Hushed, tie half rose from his chair, and glanced at IJorace. T h a t glance was e.iough tu make him resume his seat. 'The look of horror, absolu'e horror at a guest's having been insulted at hi- table, which Horace'- face wore, was more than wonderful—it was sublime. Never had such a thing o curred before. s :ch another shock would be a death blow. His knees trembled; his face grew white totho very lips.

Farmers, as a class, think too little of a holiday and there is often too much plodding on the farm. It would bd better to work harder for some months and then take a week for recreation aw<*y from the farm and its anxieties than to work more leisurely and never be unharnessed at all. There are farmers, it is true, who never earned a holiday, but there are others who work early and late and these are the men who would be better for a few days rest now and then.

The deceased had been ailing for some time, but was not confined to his bed more than two or three days. Dr. Williams attended him for four days prior to his death, and found there was no hope of recovery, as he believed his sickness to be caused by peritonitis, which belief was verified in the disclosures of the post mortem examination made by him the day after the young man died.

If this can be avoided or abbreviated it will be a great boom. As I understand it, the department in Cornell University will not deal so rnueh with actual newspaper experience a* it will with construction and style in writing. This is certainly a gooji-movo, for we must admit that we can improve very greatly our style andjtbepurity of our English. For instance, I select an exchange at random, and on tho telegraphic page I find the details of a horrible crime. It seems that an old lady, who lived by herself almost, and who had amassed between $16 and $17, was awakened by an assassin, dragged from her bed and cruelly murdered. The largo telegraph headline reads: "Drug from her bed and murdered!" This is incorrect in orthography, Byntax snd prosody, bad in form and inelegant in style. "Carefully parsing the word drug as it appears here, I find that it docs not agree with any thing in number, gender or person. I do not like to criticize the style of others when I know that my own is so faulty, but I am sure that the word.drug stould not bo used iu this way. Take the following, also from the Kansas correspondence of tho Statesville (N. C.) Landmark,' . "There were several bad accidents in and around Clear Water during my absence from home. Tho saddest one was the shooting of one Peter Peterson by his father. They were out rabbit-hunting in the snow. A rabbit got up and started to run. Tho son was in a swag of a place and the father was taking aim at the rabbit. ^The son at the same time was trying to get a shot at it and, not knowing that bra father was shooting, ran between tho'rabbit and his father and was killed dead, falling on tho snow with his gun grasped in his hands and never movod. He stiil carried that pleasant smilo which he had on, in expectation of shooting that jack-rabbit, when put in the grave. Wheat is selling at about 60 cents; corn, 40 to 50 cents; fat hogs, gross, 4½ to i V , fat steers, 4>i; butcher's stock, & cents." It is hard to say just exactly wherein this is faulty, but something is the matter with. It. I would like to got an expression of opinion from those who take an interest in such things, as to whether the fault is in price current, or whether it consists in writing several features too closely in the same paragraph. It would also be a good idea to establish a chair for advertisers in somo practical collego, in order that they might run in for a few hours and learn how to write an advertisement so that it would express in now traveling on the road, and Wonder from the Pacino coast" She then let off a whoop that ripped open tho sable robe* of night, after which she took alight lunch and retired to her dressing-room.

He had said that I was a reformed Prohibitionist, and that I had left a neglected wife in every State in the Union. I had stated that he would give better satisfaction if he would wear his brains breaded. Then he said something else that was personal and it had gone on so for some time. We devoted fifteen minutes each day to the management of our respective papers, and the balance of the day to doing each other up in a way to pleuse our subscribers. One evening Lorenzo Dow Pease came into my office and said he wanted to see me personally. I said that would suit me exactly, and that if he had asked to see me in any other way I did not know how I could have arranged it. He said he meant that he would like to see me by myself. I therefore discharged the force, turned out tho dog and we hod the office to ourselves. I could see that he"was in trouble, for every little while he would brush away a tear in an underhanded kind of way and swallow a large, imaginary mass of something. I asked Lorenzo why he felt so depressed, and he said: "William, I have came here for a favor." He always said "I have came," for he was a self-made man and hadn't done a very good job either. u I have came here for a favor.

" How long would a couple of bundles last you?" I asked, as I locked out at the window and wondered if he would lcveal his circuiatiou. " Five issues and a little over,"'he said, filling his pipe from a small box on the desk. "But you could cutoff your exchanges and then it would last longer," I remarked. "Yes, but only for one additional issuo. I am very anxious to appear to-morrow, because my subscribers will be looking for a reply to what you said about mo this mon.ing. You stulod that I was 'a journalistic bacteria looking for something to infect,' and while I did not como here to get you to retract, I would like it as a favor if you would loan me enough white paper to set myself straight before my subscribers." "Well, why don't you go and tell them about it? It wouldn't take long," I said in a jocund way, slapping Lorenzo on the back. But he did not laugh. I then told him that we only had paper enough to last us till our next bill came, and so I could not possibly loan any, but that if ho would write a caustic reply to my editorial I would print it for him.

If his offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer it of his own voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the Lord. 4. And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him. 5. And he shall kill the bullock before the Lord: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall bring the blood, and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. 6. And he snail flay the burnt offering, aud cut it into his pieces. 7. And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire: 8. And the priests, Aaron's sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the lire which is upon the altar: 0.

It will also give the aspiring „sons of wealthy parents a chance to toy with journalism without interfering with those who are actually engaged in i t BILL N Y * . The book of Exodus closed with the account of setting up and dedicating the tabernacle and the inauguration of the priesthood. Leviticus opens with a description of the system of sacrifices. The book is named for the Levites, who were givou charge of the ceremonials described. The instruction, divinely given, without doubt issued from the Presence which overshadowed the mercy seat. Equipped with a constitutional government, to which they had sworn allegiance; a common religion; God their leader, they were ready to move forward as a nation and establish themselves permanently in the land of promise. Among the various offerings, the sacrifice of atonement stood first. It was a "whole burnt offering," expressing atonement una consecration. LESSON XOTES. V. I. And the Lord called unto Moses. Men in every, ago have beon called of Godto the work for' which they have fitness; a work higher and better than human appointments. Providence never calls to disappoint ov degrade. There are many voices and many calls; the devil speaks also. He calls to a life of self-seeking, a life of self-indulgence—the divine call is to beneficence and a higher typo of living-. The voice is sometimes heard in the shaping of circumstances, the advice of f ricmlH. or in tho intuitions of the heart. As Moses was convinced that he wae God-sent, so may God's people now know that they arc divinely commissioned. V. '2. If any man of you bring an offering. It is noticed that the command is not that every man shall bring an offering—this is to be voluntary; but if tho individual elects to bring an offering unto the Lord, the acceptable manner of so doing is explicitly stated. The animal was not to be u wild beast, a useless beast or a mained beast, but domesticated, "clean," tit for food, iu the perfection of young life—forming a part of the individual wealth. The first idea of an offering is the giving of that which the owuer prizes; that whicl> costs something. V. y. A burnt sacrifice. The word sacrifice originally meant an offering made to God, a real destruction of the thing offered, in contrast with oblations, such as tithes, first fruits, etc.,'which suffered no change of substance in their designation. rhe sarrilielal atonement, n ,t only embraced the idea of ilouth to a living creature, but a consumption by lire. Tho origin of saeriilees was doubtless divine, for all nations from earliest antiquity have been accustomed so to do. The universal opinion of the heathen was, that in the shedding of blood there was pardon for violation of law. According to Lovitical law, the entire animal was laid upon the altar and consuin e<i by fire; ascending, visibly and invisibly (in greater part), to-ward heaven. This voluntary offering was the voice of the heart addressing heaven,—a symbol of the freewill submission of solf to tho Lord. The victim, perfect in every part, was a type of Christ, the perfectijjm of excellence. It taught also that the best we have is none too good to give to God. V. 4. Aud ho. shall put his hand upon the head of the offering. This act was a pledge of faith in God, implying consciousness of sin aud need of atonement, coupled with the confession that tho punishment of sin, (the sinner's desert), was transferred to the victim whose life was sacrificed instead. Placing the hand upon the head was to indicate that the weight of sin rested upon the sacrificial head, and it was at that time slain,—the punishment of sin, as it wore, being diverted from the original to the substitute; a foreshadowing of the blood of Christ, voluntarily offered, onco for all, for those_who would, with outstretched hand, accepfTEZ - — While the Israelites did not fully understand how this ceremonial cleansed from sin and made them better, it helped to impress upon them more fully the hatefulness of sin, and that they were far from God, and could only approach him through appointed means. There is botween the deserts, even of the penitent and believing soul and tho pardon and blessedness for which it hopes, an immeasurable distance, an impassible chasm which can be spanned or filled only by the mercy of God as revealed and manifested in Christ.r-Pcabody. There was sacrifice for sin in general, not the special and individual sins of which each was guilty. It was necessary that Israel be impressed that all sin was tho result of an ovil nature, this fact acknowledged, greater care would be awakened to nip in the bud individual wrong. As a national offering, tho victim was slain by the priests and Levites before tho holy place (before the Lord) where his presence was specially manifested. The sacrifice for the individual wa3 slain by tho sinner himself. The efficacy of blood is everywhere enforced. As it was the material vehicle of the life of the victLm, i t ^ a s tho symbol of the life of tho offerer. It was also a symbol of the spiritual life, given as an offering to Jehovah. As the blood was poured out on the altar before the burnt offering was kindled, it typiflod the fact that no offering of life or body is acceptable unlosa tho soul has first been given to Jehovah.—Lango.

WASHINGTON, JULY 31st, 1888. Somewhat of a sensation in political circles was created here by the republication of a story that Mr. Brice, the newly selected chairman of the democratic executive committee, had been telling tales out of school. The story goes that Mr. Brice was very indignant when he found out that he was only expected to be a figure hand, and that the real management of the campaign would be in the hands ot Air. UJevelaad. Senator Hanson, a member of the committee, and Col. Bright, of Indiana, sergeant a t arms of the committee, both use strong lansrnago in denying the story, but there was plenty of democrats who believe it, and are glad to think that the campaign is to b3 managed by Mr. Cleveland, with the aid of Mr. Lamont; the political sagacity ot both these gentlemen having been fully proven, while that of Mr. Brice is an unknown quantity. The Mills tariff bill .passed the House by a vote of 162 to 14'.*. Four democrats voted against the bill, and two republicans -tor it, which shows that the party whip was sharply cracked over tbo members ot both parties. The galleries were crowed to witness the final vote on the bill, which has consumed so much time in its discussion and space in the newspapers. Among the distinguished people in the reserved gallery were Mrs. Cleveland and her mother, Mv*. FoUom. N:w that it has gone through the House, it goes over to the Senate, where we shall ;;et another deluge of tariff talk, which will be. eml^l a'unii. September by the Senate's pa--sing a substitute for the bill, the appointment of conference commit lees, la il tire to and tbe question that is worrying tbe parties interested is, will he sign it? Tbe Senate bill appropriating $250,000 for tbe aid ot State homes for disabled volunteers, has been passed by the House, and is now in the hands of the President. During the debate Mr, Kilgore, of Texas, who was opposed to tbe bill, made a bad break by referring to the disabled soldiers as paupers. Mr. Spinola, of New York, immediately "hurled the assertion back into the throat from which it emanated.1' Civil Service Commissioner Lyman thinks that the application of civil service rules to the weather bureau would be highly beneficial, General Greely on the contrary notwithstanding. Civil Service Commissioner Edgerton, who by the way is not much of a civil service reformer, says: "The civil service rules now take in mosquitoes, bugs, chinches, and about everything in sight. I think there is a tendency to carry them too far. L don't believe in it." Mr. Fogerton, however, continues to draw $5,000 a year for administrating those rules. He does not object to that.

Those two Ann Arbor ladies who ran a wheelbarrow race at Whitmore lake one day last week, will race against time at the county fair this fall. Last Saturday, while Harry, a young son of E.G. Herbert, 43 Division st was fooling with an old broken revolver, in company with some lads of his own nge, the weapon was discharged, the bail entering the lett hand,lodging near the wrist, from which place it was extracted by Dr. Darling. Last Friday, while Fred Wyman, a stonemason, was blasting rock, some three miles out of the city, a charge of powder that he was tamping prematurely exploded, filling his face and right hand lull ot powder, burning his hand so that the skin came off from a portion of it. A small piece of steel was blown into the pupil of the eye, but Dr. McLachlan who attended him does not think it will injure it perniantly.

To Overseer Coltrin she said that he papa drank and whipped her mamma; that be said be con Id not afford to keep her (the girl) any longer, and compelled ber mamma to put her on the train to go to Cold water.

For the "Bureau of Dairy Information," Chicago, 111. Ry H. D. Sherman, State Dairy Commissioner, Monticello, Iowa. A very large per cent of the butter product of this country is manufactured on the farms, and with all the necessary conditions,'together with intelli gence and skill united, the best butter possible can be made on the farm, and it is a fact that some of the very finest butter product of this country is manufactuied on the farm. And vet it is probable that the butter in the entire milk that is manufactured on the farm in the Western States, loses at least fifty per cent, of its market value for the want ot proper conditions, or the exercise of proper skill in its produc: tion. If tbe foregoing statement is correct, the truth of which I think can be verified by careful investigation, what a tremendous loss is entailed. There is no business that can prosper when such losses occur in its management. The creamery system, as we find it in this country, is far from being perfect, and yet it possesses some advantages over the average farm dairy. When milk Jor cream 19 once at the creamery, it is supposed that conditions to control the temperature, both summer and winter, are supplied, which are absolutely and indespensably necessary, and which are not found at the average dairy farm. At the creamery the manager is paid to give his whole time and attention to the production of the best butter possible, doing everything just right and at the proper time. On the farm the one that usually has the butter making in charge, lias a thousand and one things to attend to besides the butter, and can't always attend to the dairy work at the proper time. It requires as much care to ripen the cream for 10 pounds of butter as tor 200 pounds and as even temperRture for a small lot of butter as for a larger. In fact, it requires just as much care in detail to produce a little fine butter as it does for a larger amount. nSTTlTfiFRVTl TO ADVERTISERS! • 1 V I I I I I i m I n I I I I Foa»checkfor$20wewnipr1ntatenUueadver. • I f I I L L I 1 1 & _ I I • • • ! tls.mont In One Million Issues of leading Amort, •a • • • » ^™ ^™ - - - — - B . canjiBWRnapersand complete the work within ten a^a^av*aaWaVaBBBBBsimBBBSBlala*flsBBlBBBSBBBlB ( ***'*>• TuUtsattborateof oniyone-flfthof acent a ^ a « S a > » ^ a M » " > * * ^ ^ " » ^ ™ ^ ^ ^ ^ , ^ — • • ^ • ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ " ^ ^ " ™ a i l n . * .

Lon^- continued im iness depression cnmiHirVd with other misfortunes h a s J £ 5 ^ P average producers of milk at the pfesent. especially at the west, neither have the condit;ons, the *ime, or the skill which is required to produce fine butter. It is the same with butter as with all other products, a uniform quality, coupled with quantity, will always, create a market demand. In this the I creamery has great, advantage over the individual dairv. To illustrate, 1 have in mind a gathered cream factory in this state that produced 2,000 pounds ot butter a day, during the month of June, of this vear, and the entire make was sold on track at the crea.oery. at twenty cents per pound. If the patrons who produced the cream had pound, provided tb*y bad ail made ft. good quality. Tbe advantage of u n i - formity of color, flay or, texture a s d salt, together with quantity, is being appreciated by the dairymen of Vermont, who nave always followed t h e indixidual dairy system, but 'are now adopting the gathered cream system ot creameries, with satisfactory results.

V Discovery of a L'Anse Doctor Brought to Light. A correspondent of the Detroit Tribune, writing from lahpoiuiug, says: Since 1845 it ua^ beou kuown that gold existed in the upper peninsula of Michigan. In the fall of that year Dr. Douglass Houghten, the geologist who discovered copper on Keweenaw Point and pointed out the probability that iron ore existed in considerable quantities, found gold in what is now Baraga county. He hud a goose-quill full of small grains of pure gold, and showed it to Peter Crebassa of L'Anse and to other parties. Unfortunately he was drowned a few . days later in L'Anse bay, and the secret of the gold mine ho discovered perished with him. Since then the richest copper mines of the world have been developed on and near Keweenaw Point, and tho iron ore mines of Marquette, Menominee and Gogebic counties, Mich., have become famous for the purity of their ores and the extent of their ore deposits. It is not till recently, however, that the importance of Dr. Houghton's discovery of gold has been recognized in the district. In November, '77, Mr. Julius Hopes of Ishpeming found that the ser- |)entine group four miles north of Ishpeming carried gold-bearing quartz. Mr. Ropes kept the discovery to himself and went «m exploring. In 'SO he discovered a promising quartz vein, and in t h e spring ok'81 found the "leaders" of the quartz vein on which Mr. Ropes' gold mine is now located. Tho Ropes Gold and Silver Mining Company w a s organized in July '81, and active mining work was begun. In March, '83, a livestamp mill was built. In November, '84, the 25-stamp mill was erected, and in the last mouth the 50-stamp mill was started up. The Ropes mine is now nearly 500 feet deep and $125,000 in gold and silver bullion and concentrations have been taken ont of the mine eiuL-c the lirst five-stamp mill begun work. The mine has never made any money for its owners. The average yield of gold and silver per ton of rock mined is about four dollars. One hundred thousand dollars in cash in addition to the product of $125,000 of gold and silver has been put into the mine, which is now valued at ¢250,000. One hundred thousand tons of milling rook, worth $4 to $5 per ton, is now in sight in tho mine. With the present mill facilities about twenty-five thousand tons of rock can be milled each year. Detroit capitalists, among whom is Gen. Alger, are negotiating for a controlling interest in the property, and will probably secure it. The Lake Superior company's gold mino was discovered in July, '88, by E. R. Hall, A. B. Miner, Judge Mildon and Will L . Jones of this city. A blast of dynamite brought out tweiity or thirty pounds of rich rock from a "blossom" of gold bearing sugar quartz. An attempt was made to buy or lease the land from the Lake Superior iron company, but the attempt was ineffectual. The Lake Superior iron company owns several thousand acres of valuable mineral land in Marquette county, and has made *t a rule never to sell an acre of ground under any circumstances, and it is only within the past six mouths that tho company has leased any ground except for residence purposes in this city. Finding that all attempts to lease or buy the ground were ineffectual, Messrs. Haft & Co. secured an option on 80 acres of ground adjoining the Lake Superior find on the east from tho owner, P e t e r Gingross. Joseph C. Foley of Hancock had an option on this land, but had quit work, and it was supposed that he had thrown up his option. Joseph S. Fay, general mmv,'ei' of the Lake Superior iron company, has made a fortune in tho iron mining business and spout several fortunes in looking for gold at the bottom of Colorado mines. He was, therefore, loth to begin gold mining again and it was uot till the summer of '87 that men were set at work on the gold property by tho Lake Superior company. A srnail shaft was sunk 20 feet and at the bottom of this shaft some rock carrying gold at the rate of $14,000 per ton (as showed by assays made by sever'al trustworthy chemists of this city and Cleveland) was found. F o r some mysterious reason work was stopped at once after this discovery. Another attempt was made to lease or buy tho mino, but this also was ineffectual. Nothing further was done until June of this year, when a few miners were put to work in the shaft. Some rich rock was found in Juno; and on July 19,800 pounds of quartz, carrying large quantities of gold, were dislodged by a single blast at a depth of 22 feet from the surface. On the following evening 100 pounds moro of the same quartz was found. This quartz is estimated to carry free gold at the rate of from thirty thousand dollars to sixty thousand dollars per ton. It certainly looks as rich as tho rock which assayed $44,000* to the ton a year ago. The importance of the last discovery lies in the amount found. Now, however, the Lake Superior gold Abaft is being sunk as rapidly as possible. Men are working double shift. The syndicate of Detroit capitalists, at the head of whom is Gen Alger, sent experts to examine the Ropes mine. The report was favorable and the syndicate will buy a controlling interest out of 80,000 shares, paying $3 per share. The balance of stoek is held principally by local capital. A Deliberate Murder. The wife of Michael Mourer of Detroit «vas shot and instantly killed July 27 by her husband's brother, John Mourer. At about 12:30 o'clock John asked his brother's wife to get him some dinner, but she refused, and he then shot her in the back of the head as she was standing in front of the looking glass in the sitting-room killing her instantly. Mrs. Mourer d two daughters, Alice, aged 15, and Emma, 17, who were in the adjoining house, heard t h e &hooting and came running home, when he shot at them too, but failed to hit them. He then stepped into the bedroom adjoining the Bitting-room and shot himself iu the left breast, inflicting an ugly but not necessarily fatal wound. John Mourer, the murderer, is 52 years old, and in the last 11 years he has worked but 18 months. In his early life he accumulated some property by economical h a b i t s - enough, he frequently told his friends, to keep him the balance of his life. He often carried $100 or more around in his pockets. Although not a hard, drinker, he knocked about saloons considerably, and on one or two occasions was arrested for breaches of the peace. The murderer was taken to St. Mary's hospital to await the result of his injuries. Michigan News Briefly Told* John F .

The edge of the storm struck the village of Brockway, sometimes known as Old Brockway, but no very heavy damage was done there. In the country the damage cannot be estimated, many losses not being reported and many not being able to tell what their losses may amount to, but the loss in the county will be many thousands of dollars.

Indictments have been found against all four of the anarchists arreBted in Chicago the other day. A gunsmith named Rudolph Sevic was arreBted July 25 and is now behind prison bars under bonds of $5,000. He is charged with being the individual who furnished dynamite to the conspirators who intended to assassinate the three law olhVcrs most prominent in the Haymarket prosecution. Sevic acknowledges that he has been illegally dealing in dynamite and that he has sold over fifty pounds of the explosive to various persons within a year. He will only admit having sold ten pounds to Chicagoans, and asserts he cannot remember who they were. Inspector Bonfield is positive t h a t Sevic was in league witliytho three dynamiters arrested a few days since and sold them the explosive with which thoy expected to destroy Judges Grinnell and Gary. Honors to Gladstone. Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone celebrated their golden wedding July 25th. Letters, telegrams and presents poured in upon thorn by hundreds. The couple were given a reception at the residence of Earl Spencer in the afternoon, and portraits of themselves painted by Frank Holt and Hubert Herkomer, three large silver cups and an address signed by 150 mombers of parliament wore presented to them. Lord Granville made the speech of presentation, THJE MILLS BILL PASSED. THE HOUSE PASSES THE BILL FOR TARIFF REFORM. Synopsis of Mills' Final Spssch for the Msasurt. Kpltome or W a s h i n g t o n Nswa. Saturday July 21 w a s the date fixed upon for the vote on the Mills bill, which has been under debate for so many weeks. A great crowd gathered to listen to t h e final speech of the author of the bill, w h o proceeded to address the house, beginning by stating the cond itloo of the finances of the government, placing t h e surplus a t #129,- 000,000. This, he said, should arrest the attention of the country. It represented unnecessary taxation drawn from t h e people. It was taxation levied upon the product of labor. I t was an iniquity. This enormous amount of money was constantly lowering prices and piling au enormous load on labor and increasing the benefits of privileged classed. The majority had attempted to bring before the house a bill to reduce this taxation and lessen the inflow of money into the treasury. By amendments made in committee of the whole the relative rate of duty had been placed u t ¢42.99 on $100. This moderate bill had been met by a storm of denunciation and characterized as a free trade measure. Was $42.00 on $100 free trade? What state had a 5 per cent rate of taxation i In the majority of the states it did not exceed #1 on the $100. Tho tariff of 1840 had been spoken of a s a free trade tariff Mr. Mills then took up the bill in d e t a i l beginning with the chemical shedulo w h e r e the rate of duty had been reduced from $;i2.87 to $28.17. On earthen and crockery ware the reduction had been $7 in tho $100. They called that free trade. If $50 on the $100 was free trade, in God's name what was protection. Sugar showed next t o the largest reduction iu the bill, larger than in hemp, jute, iron and in everything except wool. Yet the bill had been called a sectional measure. To get $«5,000,000 of pro tection on sugar the government had to collect $58,000,000 of tariff duties. I n provisions the reduction was $1 in 100; more free trade. I t w a s less than $1 in cotton goods. Was not that moderate? The duty still remaining a t $30.07. In wools and woolons tho reduction w a s $20 on the hundred, and most of that had been caused by placing wool on the free list. The manufacturer would get free wool and 40 per cent, protection, or 5 per cent, more than he now got. And still they said the bill was a free trade measure. Articles amounting to $200,000,000 had been placed on tho free list, and ^«5,^90,000 of that was wool. CottoB had been the chief product of this country, yet the republican party had put it in the free list. And they were right. B u t when it was proposed to touch wool, the combination that made the protective tariff was struck, and they said, I "You shall not touch it." The next article on the free list was tinplate, $5,700,000. Not a pound of it was produced in this country. The committee proposed to give this money to the con sumers, yet their action was called free trade. If that was free trade, make the most of it. Salt was t h e next. Because a few people were interested in its manufacture the committee was stigmatized as free traders for putting it on the free list. Burlap w»s not made in. this country. I t had been placed on the free list. Hemp and jute made up $1,700,- 000 of the free list. With all the milk that could b e given this baby industry it had failed to grow. I t WBS dying and must soon disappear. Tho republicans had used the same argument in favor of striking down the sugar industry. Opium ; paid $4txH,000. I t had beon placed on tho tree list. Cotton ties and bristles (the latj tor produced in Russia) had also been 1 placed on the free list. A food product, cur- I rants, that concerned no laborer in this country, had been placed on the freo list, ! yet tho committee was taunted with being free traders. Wool grew on tho sheep There had been much sympathy expressed for sheep-thodemocratic party sympathized with men. It wanted cheap clothing for the poor, The republicans wanted the duty kept so high that neither wool nor woolons could be brought in. With ^ p r o - duct of 300.000,000 pounds of wool and a need of 600,000,000 pounds, what were we L'Oing to do? The democrats proposed to let in wool free and let our workmen make it up '. into clothing. The bill was intended to i benefit the condition and increase the wages of tho laboring people. (Applause.] The government should not meddle with the people; they could take care of themselves. They were the most intelligent and best people in tho world and could givo employment to all of tho laborers if congress would but let them alone. Why should wo not have free r a w material and havo an opportunity to contest on equal terms with foreign manufacturers. Wo would have a fair field and an open fight. [Applause.] The democratic party intended to appeal to the virtue and intelligence of the country. In conclusion, Mr. Mills referred to the suit of clothes produced by Mr. McKinley during his speech. He said that ho hud nothing to taice back. He had inquired into it and had found that the $10 suit had been protected to the amount of $4.03. He had heard that that suit was to be photographed and used in the campaign. He wanted to-phoiograph in t h e brain of every voter the fact that that $10 suit was protected to the amount of $4.03 T h e vote was then taken e n t h e final passage of the bill and resulted—yeas 162, nays 149. Mr. Sowden of Pensylvanla, Greenman and Bliss of New York (dems.) voted against the bill, and Mr. Fitch of New York and Mr. Nelson of Minnesota (reps.) voted for it. The four independent members also voted aye. Of tho Michigan delegation, Chipman, Fisher, Ford and Tarsney voted for t h e bill; Allen, Burrows, Brewer, Uutcheon, Seymour and O'Donnell recorded against it. Whiting failed to reach Washington in time to cast a vote. Senators P a l m e r and Stockbridge voted against the confirmation of Melville W. Fuller as chief justice of tho supreme court. In submitting the fourth annual report of the civil service commission to congress, President Cleveland says: The people are to b e congratulated upon t h e progress which h a s boen mado, and upon the firm, practical and sensible foundation upon which this reform now rests. With a continuation of the intellifrent fidelity which has hitherto characterzed the work of the commission, with a continuation and increase of tho favor and liberality which have been evinced by the congress in tho proper equipment of the commission for its work, with a firm b u t conservative and reasonable support of tho reform by all its friends, and with the disappearance of opposition which must inevitably follow its Detter understanding, tho execution of tho civil servico law cannot fall to ultimately answer the hopes in which it had its origin.

CHAPTER XIII (COXTINUBD). Mr. Simmons, with the quickness of'ais race, read what was passing in Horace's mind. His anger merged into pity for his courteous, kindly host He reseated himself, ana *aid with a pleasant smile, "How curious «uon things sound to men of the world H-ke*us." Then'he said something in praise of the La itt?. Horace gave a sign or (relief, ;and to *his dying day will love feat gentle Jew. Taking it altogetlrer, the Talbefti do hot oacut that dinner among their -social successes. Frank knew that when the party ad- :'ouraed to the drawing-room he should see Beatrice. Herein les wished tier to be there; and it was not the rule at Hazlewoed House for the men guests to go sraright from the table to the snokingroem. So whilst Horace and Herbert were seehig that the curiously-shaped Venetian flasks-were going around witu hospitable, toot hot with coareelv convivial saoed, Mr. Carruthers wa* summoning up courage to •desert his post aisd cheer Miss Clauson's loneliness. The thought of that Loneliness (pew so painfnh t',\t t, taking advantage of Horace s being ertgagijd in deep-con ersa- 'tiouwith Lord Kelst«m, he rose, slipped Tfirom the rootn, and passing across the 1)411 opened the iSi awing-room i*cor. 'line drawing-room door, like every other <do >r In Ha/.lewood House, did it's duty witliout noise. There are so n« people's doors whl halwnys scrape and ban r, just ae there are some peo le s sho^s which always creak. The Talbcrts' shoes never creaked. TheTalberts' doors never uttered assound. So Frank stood on the thick, «ofrcarpet arid looked at Miss Clauson, who had no Idea that her solitary exile was ended. She was seafce Ion the music bench. Her Imnds wer,' on the keys of the piano, but iraaking no music. She was ga ing with grave e\es far, far away—looking right rth rough the censor of t he satlnwood Sheraton cabinet wMch, fullof choiceporcelain, istood against the opposite wall. Her thoughts, sad oc sweet, wore In Dreamland. And Mr. Carruthers stood watching her. He knew he w •« doing wrong -knew he •ought to make her aware of his presence -—but the picture was to him so divinely beautiful thatch* could not help himself. , And as he wat'hed he saw. or fancied he saw, te^rs rfelng to those gray eyes. 'This was more tnan human nature could Ibear. He never knew how he dared*o do it, iuut before she looked round he was at her side, hi.s arm was round her—a music bench offers dangerous facilities, it lias m'back and he was telling her with passionate elo juotice that he loved Iter—ho lowed h^r' There was none of poor Mr. Mordle s hopeles.suess about this ardent young Carruthers. Hut how did Beatrice take it? With a low .cry of fear, perhaps aversicc, she sprang to her feet and stood for a moment looking at him, with a face as pile as palexu death. Then without a word she turned and went swittly toward the Aoor. Frank with a face as pale as her OWN followed and intercepted her. He gra*pe 1 her hand. "Beatrice* have yo% ^nothing to say;to roe'.' Nothing?" She breathed quickly' She seemed ito set her leeth. She answered not a word. "Beatrice, have you nothing to tell me? Can yo*:nottell me yon love me? Answer.' me." There was no trace of railery or lightness in Mr. Carruthers' scanner. It was that of a unan playing fana life or death stake. "'Answer me. Sayjyou love me," he repeated. "I can not," said Beittice hoarsely. "Let me »«." Could Frank Carruthers lts.ve followed Beatrice tofcer room, he would have seen her throw herself on her bed, and burst into a paroxysm of urief. He avould have seen the somfcar Mrs. Miller cuaie to her, embrace her soothe her, and estreat her. He would hare seen a look of stsrn resolution settle os the servant's stroagly marked features, a look which contrasted strangely with the affectionate solicitude which she displayed toward her mistress in her trouble. But Carruthers eould not see the so things, and had he seen them would fcave been no wiser for the sight. room where the perfume of her dress tttll lingers." He stooped and picked up a flower which must have fallen from her dress. He took a glove which was lying on the piano. "Wrat a leveler love is," he said grimly; "one laughs at the Idiotic proceedings of others, and when one s own time comes docs Just the same. A glove! A flower! Conventional emblems, lacking even originality. What a fool lam." After this he took his hat and forgetting all about the d aner party, went out Into the garden to think. In spite of his assumed calm he must have been strongly moved, for he c mmenced hi* operation of thinking by digging his heel itno the immaculate gravel path so viciously that the roiter was needed for half an hour the next morning in ord.T to smooth matters down. Thvn, as ha me lot this burst of passion, he walked down to the bottom of the garden anl, regardless of October dews and chil y air, threw himself on a seat and strove to account for what had happened, and to determine its result so far as his own fut re was concerned. "No, I wont grovel," said Frank. "'Most fellows seem to grovel when they are In love. Hang it, 1 won't! I'll be or'gual in that respect if 1 have to cut my heart out." These remarks were of course applicable to con lasion number three—a conclusion at which love always laughs. Give a prouder man than Mr. Carruthers, and as hopelessly in love with a woman, that woman, If she wished, might have a fresh declaration oi undylug passion, every week in the year. Oh, yes—all lovers can "grovel" if nee .is be. By and by a curious whim seized this particular lover. He would go down a id see Syhanus Mordle. Not that he wished to unbosom his woes to the curate—that would be groveling with vengeance—but there seemed a erim propriety In seekief and sitting with t e other man who was rowing in the same boat, or. to put ft poetically, the man whose bark of j<jy had been wrecked up n the same roek as his OWE. Besides. Mordle would be sure to talk about Miss Clauson—he always did. ^'What a fool 1 am!" said Fran* more bitterly than ever. Nevertheless, he walked down to the curate's lodgings. When Frank was shown into his room Mordle jumped up and greeted hlm«cheerfully, "Hallo!" he jerked out ""You here? Why, what's up?" "I only came for a smoke and a <chrat," ' Thought you had every one—«all the swells up at the house to-night." Frank starte I. ' I quite forgot tttrem"' he said, with lack of caution unusual to him, "Forgot them! How shocked 'Horace will be—how grieved Herbert- Sfo matter. Here you are." Whilst speaking* the curate bustled about. He opened a drawer, lookout a box of cigars, then shut the drawer with a bang. He opened a cupboard took out afcottle of whisky, then Cammed the cupboard door. He slapped the cigars, the whisky, a water bottle, an I a glass on th•> table in front of Frank, and waited for to help himself. -'Look here Carruthers,"-said Mordle, briskly. "You- forget a dinner-party, You come to chat and-smoke with me, You don't smoke—yon don't chat What s "Nothing." Frank ;<m ed himself and lock a cigar. "That >'• dmnl r Ive muiute. CHAPTER XIV. "ilOrK S1M5INUS KTK11VAI.." After Beatrice had left the drawing' room Frank s'ood motionle 9 for a couple of m nute.<i Kven in the hrst bitterness of defeat he did not blame her. That all was ended and over he never doubted. His feelings were those of bewilderment. He could not understand it; could see no reason for this summary and without appeal re ection of his love. "I must go and think it all over," he fluttered, "i cant think here, in this 'Nothing!'* said ruean^ everything. "Well tncn. »• erytiiVR.

' There was aiuinpin Sylvanus" throat, but he choked it down manfully, Frank wondered «t the curates nuickness in guessing Men in love always wonder at the preternatural gift of detection with which their friends seem endowed. "May I wish you joy?" meiterated Mordle, "Vou may wish wbatyee like; but the truth is we are partners in Juisfottune." "You have tried "' "And failed." Frauk rap-ped the^words out sharply. Mordle looked the .picture of surprise. He held his hand o;it>to his visitor. ••Hiing It!" said Frank. •* I don'tvwant pity. If you bore it. 1 sappese L-can." "Oair cases are different. You felt certain ofjsuccess." "Did I? If so, it was only one of rlhe delusiocs natural to a man of a y Age." "Explain." 'The older you grow the more liable you are ,to delusions.

The curate loved an argument of tills sort. Presently he looked up. t, "Thats ail-rot'.'' he sad. "Hoy of twenty —modest and good—can't ice any reason for a woman's loving him. Man of thir;y or fostv—succesful in life, say — measured his strength against his fellows — can t help feeling he's i.uite worth being loved. Seue how falacious your argument!" "Never mind." said I rank; 'itdoesn't •ratter which way you take it." "I say ' contk)ued Mordle, laying his teand on Frank's shoulder. "Listen to ihff advice. 1 ^ ¾ you take no for an answer.'' "•I'll ask no woman twice to be my wife," said Frank, with conclusion number threr^ fresh in hit mind "You might ask this me twenty times and feel happy if vou i>ot her then. But twenty-times won't be neede.1. She loves* you now, Carruthers." • "What folly you talk." "I don't—1 never talk folly. I have seen you I tgether. I have watched her closely as 1 watch one of my tlock who leans toward dissent. I have seen what you haven't seen, and again 1 say, don't take No' for an answer." "Let us talk 'of something else," said Frank. All the same the old proverb about the looker-on and the game came to his mind. Under some circumstances there is much solace to be got out of proverbs. They talked of something else, but as It always does when a man is In love, that something else veered round ever to the one thing. At last Frank threw the end of his cigar away and ba'o the curate good night. Mordle's amshatle c assertion that he ou?ht not to despair had done h m good, although be still swore be would not "grovel' and ask again. Ills guest having left him, Sylvanns drew h maelf up and patted his chest approvingly. "That was nmgnaninras, vary magnanimous," he said "to help a rival like that But I am thoroughly cur d, s-> eo .'d afford to do it." He always t Id himself he was cured. Perhaps he was. All the same the Rev, Sylvanus Mordle is a bachelor to this day. Frank went back to Hazlewoo l House, and apotogl ed for his strange absence as best he could. He had been seized with a splitting headache and compelled to seek fresh air. strange to nay a splitting headache ha^ also driven Miss Clauson, not to fresh air, but to her ro mi. "Thunder in the idr, no doubt,' said Herbert, the most unsuspicious of men. About half past eleven the 'ast of the guests departed. Frank in a moody sullen way watched Horace anl llerbe.tas they went from window to window trying shutters and bars and bolts. He did not smile even when Horace gravely and deliberately counted the forks an 1 s oon; in Whittaker's basket-the exact plate given out for dinner parties - whilst Herbert blended together iwo hah" empiied bottles of sherry and made them o e full one. The domestic duties were at last finished; the bottles locked up; the spoons and t rks s-nugly tucked up in little chamois leather bags, ready to be put to rest In the safe uptil again wanted. Horace and Herbert looked at Frank. "•Shall we go t > bed now, or would you like to stay up longer?" Frank started out of his reverie. He 41d not feel in the least inclined for bed. "If you don t mind," he said, "I will go *rnto the library and write some letters. The fresh air has male me so wide awake that I sha'n't be able to sleep for a long time." They did mind, of coarse; but were too polite to say' so. Whittaker was ordered to take the lamp into the library, and Frank bade his cousins good night. •Tlease turn the wick down low before you blow It out,'' said Horace. "And,' entreated Herbert, "would you mind turning the hearth rug upside down when you leave the room? It makes It last so mucli longer." Frank promised, wondering the whil * why the constitution of a hearth rug was such that the night and early morning air impaired it Then he sought the library, closed the door, sand was alone with his owri thoughts. Then he triel <to read. Naturally he turned to poetry. All lovers turn to it as inevitably as a duck do>s to water. He took Tennyson from the shelf, and fort e first time in h(s life sympathi-ed with the ill-used, egot'«tical nero of "Locksley Hall." After t is he chanced upon a volume of Mrs. Browning s, and read about the poet who, although so passionate y in love with La ly (Jerald ne, was thick headed «nou h not to be able to detect the exl-tence of a corresponding sentiment on tUcpartof her ladyship. And i.st as Mr. rnr.uthers reached the part where ttoe lovely lady comes by night, passes through the poet s window, and In r» her a forward way does all t e woo ng, he heard a Sight faint linger tap on the library door.

It if curious to observe what a remarkable change in ghosts has been effected by modern soieuce, says the Philadelphia TTUM. The reader of current literature is wall aware that they have beee sxterminated, for imaginative writers Sad ths employment of supernatural machinery as effective as ever. Even the matter-offact journalist knows the valne of a ghost, and the members of the Psychical society have a double portion of the old belief. The ghost of the nineteenth century is, however, very different from those of an earlier date. He has left off almost all of his old fantastic tricks and taken on a polish suitable to his time. In the most recently published volume ..-of ghost stories the most important separation and the one which will probably seem the most real to nine-ten ths of the readers is the soul of the young gentleman afflicted with the earlr English cult, which is tied to earth by a yearning for bric-a-brac It hovers over the remainder cups of a set of blue china whioh the youth had been nnable to complete before his death. In another etory the obliging spirit of a lover quits his body during sleep in order to remove the anxiety of a fair but fretting young widow, who fears he has been drowned. These are fair examples of the kind of ghost story which receives the most general credence. One exhibits the ghostly tendency to linger around the scenes of pursuits which have become a passion; the other is an exaggerated example of telepathy. One feature of the new ghost is his singular indifference to the fate of his bones. He never Seems to care whether they are left to bleech on the mountain- side, cast into the sea, burned, or buried. Yet that used to be his chief solicitude. Disraeli, in the second series of his "Curiosities of Literature," describes this trait with usual care and exactitude. He says: "Bodies,corrupted in their graves, have arisen, particularly the murdered,for murderers are apt to bury their-victims in a slight and hasty manner. Their salts, exhaled in vapor by means of their fermentations, have arranged themselves on the surface of the earth, and formed phantoms which at n ght have often terrified the passing spectator, as authentic history witnesses. They have opened the grave of the phantom and discovered the bleeding corpse beneath; hence it is astonishing bow many ghosts may be seen at night after tlio recent battle standing over their corpses,'" A lie Id of the dead, dotted with sentinel specters, is an idea on which the imagination may run riot. Some peculiarities of the ancient ghost were highly useful and convenient. The obliging specter of the miser was often unable to wing its way to hades until it disclosed to some one the hiding-place of his hoard. On some of the Pacilic islands the ghosts of dead buccaneers watched patiently for years till some one came to remove the buried treasure. Then what a number of secret cabinets have been unlocked, important papers, found h.ddeu deeds laid bare, and crime detected by the aid of ghosts. These churches, cbarnel-hoases, asd otfctr dormitories of the dead where imps of hell, clothed in the-fleshy habiliments of men, held nocturnal revelry. Burns seems to have thought that while the devils danced the dead men held the candle: Coffin* stood round liks open presses. That sbou'd th»4tad la the]? last dressesi And bv some dsveush contrsip slight E«cn 1¾ his cauld hand held s light Another marked difference between the old ghost And the wraith of to-day is that the latter is voiceless. The earlier gibbered and moaned. In bare, lonely woods, in haunted church and castle, they shrieked and screamed. We have heard of ghosts that moaned and sang; a few have played musical instrumenta In the black plantation at the top of the hill, where Bella Brown killed her baby and then banged herself, you might hear—so the peasants used to say—on windy nights, when the rotteu boughs were hurled down and the dead leav es sent flying like bounds in foil cry, first the cry of the phantom child, then the lullaby of its phantom mother. No one would go there after dark, not even Will, the poacher, who, though he was reputed to fear neither man nor devil, cautiously skirted the wood at a safe distance with his limping dog cowering at his heels. All those wild, turbulent, restless spirits are laid forever. Snch wraiths as do appear merely look in as they are passing—to put the fact in a familiar way—to let us know they are going. The best authenticated stories are those of spirits which, when far from home, are compelled at short notice to quit for ghost-land. Instead of going direct one will sometimes call round by the houso of a dear friend, a lover, or a brother, enter the room in some mysterious manner, thicken out of mist iuto a resemblance to the familiar foriu, then with a long, mournful gaze pass out again to pursue the mystic journey. This gentle, harmless shadow is all that remains of the stern, sleepless, vindictive ghost who could never be quiet till his secrets were told or he had had his revenge or burial, but who-^s now interred in that graveyard of romance where lie the fauns and satyrs, brownies, elves, and fairies, the witches and warlocks the hobgoblins and fiends who made the air round our forefathers thick with, fear and mystery- "Simply by a condenser or captive ba- offices they have ceased to perform, loon and an electric cable placed where-1 r , , . _ , , . l ' ever th • rain Is required.

They thought nothing of--eboostng- the most peaceable-minded men to execute their bloody behests, and it was very awkward for a quiet man to bo placed in the dilemma of being either exposed to the reproaches of a" respected ghost or of committing a crime quite opposed to his usual habits. It was probably the injustice of the case that brought Sir Thomas Browne to the conclusion that 'these apparitions and ghosts of departed persons are not the wandering souls of men, but the unquiet walks of devils, prompting and suggesting us into mischief, blood, and villainly; instilling and stealing into our hearts that the blessed spirits are not at rest in their graves, but wander, solicitous of the affairs of the world." If this be so it is comforting to reflect that in our time the emissaries of Satan have other employment than that of parading about under the mask of dead men revivified. It is a belief of long standing that good or evil spirits may enter into a corpse. The linos in the Ancient Mariner are familiar: Start not. thou wedding guest! 'Twas not the soul of theie dead men That to their corses came again, But a troop of spirits blest N o wonder that those who shared Sir Thomas Browne's belief carefully avoided after nightfall cemeteries.

"Every hotel has its odd character," remarked a clerk to an Indianapolis Journal reporter. "I have had experience around a good many ant" have never failed to tiud some odu genius of.somo sort, somo one whom everybody,big and little, old and young,, knows, sitting around the office," "A sort of mascot," suggested the reporter. "Yes. that's it; that's what we might call them. You find them all pretty much alike in character—genial, talkative, gossiping, good natured geuiu4- es who seem to gather up all the news in town, personal and general, and are always ready to toll i t Then thoy generally have a fund of stories so that they can enliven the dullest of company If they try, These characteristics soon make them well known to everybody and companionable to alL Strange, too, their physical characteristics are very often similar. I knew an old fellow at a hotel down in Virginia once. He was an odd genius and was always sitting around the office, morning, noon and night, and never failed to have a crowd of ready listeners around htm. Everybody knew him and everybody liked to talk w ith him. One day I missed him from the office. It was so unusual that I was sure something had gone wrong. So I sent the porter to his room not far away from the hotel, to see about him. He soon returned with the report that our old friend, the companion of many weary hours, was lying in his room dead, I half suspected as much, because these characters generally pass away in that manner. As a rule they have no immediate relatives and no one especially interested in them." 'They take the public in as their relatives, do they?'1 "It would appear so.

Knox &, Co., negotiators of real estate mortgages and loan brokers, who have had for several years a flourishing savings department in connection with their loan business. This is nothing less than the I'nited 8tates Savings Rank, with a capital of Sol H ),000. It is the purpose of this lank, in addition to a savings bank business, to negotiate Western mortgages for similar institutions and private investors in the East. Wm. C. Knox & Co. have a capital ot SlOO.unO. Rut this is insufficient, to handle their loan and savings business most prolltably. They have a large ami valuable list of loan and savings customers which will be turned over to the bank. This hank, in addition to its locid business, expects to become a central point wloVe the large number of Western mortgagors can make deposits, drawing a fair rate of interest, to offset the interest on their vnortgages, and io pay them when due.

The bill is especially aimed at the elevated railroad stati ns at New York, aud other railroad and steamboat lines throughout tho.country where a paper or magazine has been exc uded from sale for some reason or another.

THE HERO OF WINCHESTER LAYS DOWN HIS SABRE. Heart Failure the Cause of His Death. Sketch of ilia Career. Gen. Sheridan died suddenly at Nonquitt* Mass., on the 5th Inst Death resulted from the old heart trouble which had never been successfully arrested.

"Americans, I presume?" said the Londot hotel proprietor, as the party engagec rooms. "Bostonians," corrected Mrs Charles lilvers Masscy. Gen. Sheridan's Career. Philip Henry Sheridan was a native of Perry county, Ohio, ihe son of Irish parents and a West Point graduate of '53. He served in Texas and Oregon, and was made captain In IStSl. In May, 1862, he was made colonel of the Second Michigan Cavalry, of which Gen. Alger was then an officer, and before the year was out ho waa a major-general His service* as chief of cavalry of the army of the Potomac are too well known to need recital now, and his famous ride to Winchester is immortalized in history and in song. The campaign against Richmond in 1804 waa furthered by his destructive raids on tree's communications, and he did much in the events that led up to the close of the war. After the war he was in Louisiana and Texas, enforcing "reconstruction," and in 18fl9 he was made lieutenant-general of the Csited States army. His headquarters were at Chicago, until Gen. Sherman's retirement made him the highest officer in the army, when'be became located at Washing- Ion. He was a popular, courteous officer, well-liked socially, a leading Catholic and , very charitable. Michigan can prefer a claim to a share in the glory which envelops the name of Sheridan. When appointed colonel of the Second Michigan Cavalry in May, 1862,. by Gov. Blair, he soon gave the enemy a taste of his quality. Fourteen fights in thirteen days kept the Wolverine boys busy crossing sabres with the enemy, whom they drove out of northern and western Tennessee. The Second regiment was raised at Grand Rapids, and R. A. ^Alger was one of its captains. Such achievements led to promotion, and Sheridan was made a brigadier and major-general before , th.> ("lose of 1862. The great cavalry battle of Hooneville, Miss., was fought on July 1, 1SA2. In that battle his great ability was strikingly shown. He dispatched Capt. Alger, with two companies, by a devious, circuituous road to attack Chalmers in Hank and rear. At tho moment Alger struck the enemy in tho hank, Con. Sheriday caused the locomotives which had Just hauled in a supply train to blow their whittles. The moral effect of A flank attack is even more serious than the actual contest. Whon, therefore, Chalmers was attacked by Alger with his small force and heard the scream of the locomotives at his front, apparently betokening re-enforcements, he boat a hasty retreat, and the battle was ! won: Capt. Alger was wounded and left on the Hold. Stono River and Mission Ridge gave Sheridan other laurels, which ho bore with his usual unassuming and modest manner. ^ h . S t i l l W o r r i e d A b o u t S t a n l e y . Tho fate of Stanley still continues to disturb tho public mind, and the discussion concerning his whereabouts, if alivo, has been prolific of innumerable theories. The fact of Tippoo Tib's following Stanley, however, is held to onhanco the probability ! of his death in tho minds of tho pessimists. Maj. Bartlclot, commander of the camp at Aruwimi, and Prof. Jamieson, tho eminent naturalist, are known to be good mon and entirely capable under ordinary circumstances of rendering, invaluable assists anee to Stanley, but it is feu rod by those wlk) know Tippoo Tib well that that chief, at the head of a small army under perfect control* baa.not been able to resist the temptation, always strong with him, to fight whenever an opportunity occurred, and upon the assumption that he has .yield - j cd to his belligerent instincts it is believed I that Sum ley has been overwhelmed as the I result of the exasperation of the natives which Tippoo has aroused. Strong pleasure is now being brought upon the British government to recognize the unofficial expedition now on the way to Khartoum and which will not likely meet with serious opposition until it arrives at Berber, whore the new Madhi'9 out poBta are at present stationed. The followers of Khalifla are known to be half starved and mutinous and their desertion of the I Mahdi and alliance with the expedition in I event of its recognition is confidently re- I lied upon by the advocates of the govern- : merit's i-nterference in behalf of the beleaguered whites in interior Africa, Wide A w a k e P e o p l e W b o Bead Adv e r t i s e m e n t s , b u t Tliey Bbould be Head able. The invention of printing, whioh was so little and simple a thing in it* beginning, baa developed with tbe generations into a myriad of industries, many of which seem to bear no relation to each other, till their origin is traced. The process of sub-division and growth is still going on in all the branches that have spru ng from the original type. One of the luteal and most important out growths of the ntuvspuper publishing business is tbe art of advertising. Advertising lias coma along with a newspaper as an essential and appropriate part and use of it, to be sure, but within a few years it has g r o w n to be a business, art or a profession, distinct from any other of the callings that are involved in the makiug of newspapers, and one requiring special trainiug and knowledge. The writing of advertisements has developed under the stimulus of business competition and tbe chang ug methods of trado, requirmenls that many business «ien have found themselves unable satisfactorily to meet, and the demand for special skill in this direction has led to a great appreciation in the value of clerks or bookkeepers with a " k n a c k " for it, just as the custom of trimming windows has created a class of special artists in that direction. In very many houses doing much business au advertising clerk is specially employed. Great and radical changes have taken place in the methods and m a n n e r of presenting the business of a house to the public through advertisements, and as a part of these changes tbe advertising columns of a daily or weekly newspaper are coming to be read as regularly and as much as a matter of course as the news columns. Tboy present a part of tho news of the day, which our "busy people cannot forego. More than ever, as the desire of the merchant to obtain a reading for his advertisement is met by a demand on the part of tbe customer for certain qualities of pertinence and use and timeliness in the advertisement, does the necessity of discrimination and trained intelligence in its preparatiou become i m p o r t a n t The merchant who is able to apply this intelligent discrimination, who knows how to adapt his announcements to time, place, people, goods and the conditions of trade, and to establish a regular communication with the public whose benefits tho public as well as himself is able to perceive, is the man who gains the largest reward. And it may be said with equal truth that the people who "always skip the advertisements1 ' ih reading their paper fail to keep themselves informed in matters that vitally concern their own welfare, and "get left.'"—Springfidd (Mass.)

Down through the ellipse roared and emoked a licrce fire of logs, and a man armed with a pail of butter and some sort of a flap-dasher iu his hand, bedewed the frizzling -shad until they browned down to the mystic point whero browning ceased and yet burning could not be allowed to begin. This is a point harder to understand than any other feat of browning, so the cooks say. The plank will not reveal the state of the other side of the shad, and yet that side must be cooked thoroughly. It is harder to read than anything Browning has yet written— yet the wise cook knoweth h s shad and sees when it is proper to take it from tho fire with unerring instinct. And tho result is shad, iirm and hard from his salt-water life, mitigated sliehtly by his brief stay in the fresh water of the river, and then exalted, sanctified by the fire whoso treatment he could only sustain from the strength and flavor which an oak back has given him—the plank to which lie is fastened. The piece you can get on your plate makes you certain that "walls of oak" nro necossary to a peace-loving nation like ours—necessary to the shad at least—Washington Cor. of the Independent. • tm • • Appearances Are Defc eitfnl.

" N o , " said b e , " "there is no r e a s o n why the cash system should not prevail iu medicine and surgery as in other professions and trades.

"HAS the cash idea been introduced a n y w h e r e ? " "Certainly it has in the east, and it is productive of the best results. I have had ex|>cricnce of it myself in m y own practice.

A gentleman who has been prominent iu the organization of a company to prospect for natural gas or oil in tho vicinity of Cuambarsburg, tells tho following snake story: "One Sunday morning I went to the country to visit a friend, taking with me my little boy. After dinner I took a walk around part of tho farm of my friend, a u d w h d e walking a l o n g - sido a fenco I espied a blacksnake, which lookod to bo between three ami four feet in leugth. running nlong beneath tho lower rail of tho fence, and keeping in such a position that I could not get at him to kill him. Hn finally disappeared under tho groiyid besido a fence post. 1 made up my mind to capture liim if possible, and having procured a mattock I began to dig down to whore I supposed lift would bo found. But to my great surprise 1 would find ao snake or any place whero ho might have crawled. While gazing into the hole and wondering what had become of his suakeship I noticed a small hole about three-quarters of an inch iu diameter in the baso of the post The h o l e seemed too small to admit of the passage of a good-sized snake, but 1 determined to investigate. I went to the house, procured a kettle of hot water and returned for further proceedings. Taking the post out of tho ground and laying it on its side, I commenced to pour hot water into the hole. Iu about ten seconds tho e n t n o post seemed to rise from the ground, and his half-scalded snakeship darted out from tho hole, swaying his long body to and fro and performing wonderful contortions. I was so badly frightened I dropped the kettle and took to my iieuls out into the field. In a fow minutes I gained sufficient courage to go back, and with the blow of a club disabled the snake. I then procured a piece of a limb with a hook at tho larger end and with it pinned him to the ground back of the head. Placme in drinking it, an invitation he never declined. Finally, one day he ordered a pint, and, instead of offering nie any, said ho thought it a pity that they didn't put it up in smaller bottlos, because a pint was more than any man really nocded, but that he had to drink it all to save was to, since the corks were so made that they couldn't be put back." "Would you mind tolling mo Hint-man's name in confidence?" askod tint member wbo h a d i told tbe ring story. "Not at all," was the answer.

HE highway t h a t leads across t h e township of Franklin in the Southern Michigan county of Lenawee, is bordered on both sides by rich farms, coal woods of second-growth timber and rich green stretches of meadow land. * On a small piece of ground at one side of the turnpike is the humble log-house of William Jackson, who would be known as Bill Jackson, were it not for the fact that in early days in Michigan he had preached on Una Methodist circuit, and hence, is awarded the title of "Mr." Jackson by all his country neighbors. By a marriage late in life to a woman much his. junior, Mr. Jackson has a daughter who has been, since the lamented death of his wife, his sole companion. Here on this little spot of grount the superannuated minister and his tender daughter had been able to supplement his slender pension from the church treasury by growing a few necessaries, in which process tho severest labor was gladly performed by the young men in the neighborhood. To one young man in particular had Lucy Jackson's gratitude for such neighborly service turned to love, but, unfortunately, Albert Walls was not a favorite of her opinionated father, and tho suit was making what seemed to be to the principals in it, very slow progress. One morning Al was cultivating for tho first time tho corn in a field adjoining the land belonging to tne Jacksons,and,as the patient beast crossed and re-crossed the brown field, mado one huge checker-board by the fresh green lines of growing corn, the stalwart young farmer had little to do save follow with tho lines acros his shoulders, the cultivator needing little care in the soft earth, and the gentle old mare little attention save when making tho turn. All the morning his thoughts had been on his un« won bride, and, with sudden dotermina«i tion, ha halted tho mare at the next turn, and thoughtfully chewing a blade of grass, made across the lot of the preacher. The old man sat by the side of the cabin door, his feeble body drinking in the warm sunshine, which is life to frames of flesh as well as of fiber. u Morning, Mr. Jackson," saluted Al, as he walked up the path. "Mornin," Al," quavered tho old man. M This sun's good for corn aint it?' "Pretty growin' time now, Mr. • said Al, tho subject uppermost in being far removed from the subjei vorsation. "Broke down, Al? Want to borry wrench?" "No, aint broke nuthin, Mr. Jackson. Fact is, I want to talk with you on special business. Y'know Toot 'n 'Ivo been goin together fur sum time, 'n we've 'bout mado up our minds to marry 'f 'you'Uow it." •'Can't do it, Al. You're a good feller; good'nuff fur any gal, but I can't spare her." The old man wearily placed his hand under his chin, and his far-away eyes seemed to seo tho past in procession before them. "Lucy's all I've got to care for, Al, and s'Long she'll stay with tho old man ho won't let her go. Sorry can't 'commodate yer, Al, but can't spare tho givl." " All right, Mr. Jackson," said Al, with a little determination in his voice and manner, which a younger listener might have detected. "I'd a good deal rather you'd let me have her willingly," and without further ccio tho young man passod around tho houso on his return to his work. Lucy was coming, with eggs in her apron, from the tumble-down structure which served tho homeless couplo as a barn, when Al met her and briefly told her of his failure ugain to win her father's consent. A Ion:-,* talk followed, in which tho details of a method of proceduro which had been before suggested, but which had been held as a lasr resort, were agreed to, and that night determined upon for a quiet flight to tho villago minister who would perform tho wedding ceremony. With beating and guilty heart Lucy went into the house and laid the gathered eggs carefully away and then joined her aged father, still sunning himself, with that faraway look in his eyes. ** •< D'you remember your mother, Lucy? n asked the old man for the hundredth time, perhaps. ••lTo,pa."

" There's plenty o* room 'long side her grave fer mine, Laey, and seems if twouldn't be long 'fore I wanted to go there." u O h l no, no, pa." " Yes, Luay, what is to bo is to be, girL But say, Lucy, do you feel right toward Alt" "Yes, I lovohim, pa." " An* you want to marry him?M "Yes, pa."

" 1 could care for you and tho place eaaier, pa, if I had Al to help mo, don't you think?" "Don't know but you might, Toot; don't know but you might" " An' Al womld take its both to his housOj pa, perhaps—that is if you wanted to go." "Yejj" said tho old man, at length, "I might want to go; might want to go. I'll see, Lucy, I'll seo." With a lighter heart Lucy went to her work, believing that in tho morning it wouia not be a very hard tasac to secure me old man's indorsement of the marriage, whon it should have been accomplished. Tho day passed with laggard's pace to> ^Lucy. Her household duties were alLdTsj- charfijd in turn, but there scemod to bo an 1 unusual amount of time left afterthey wero over. Tho old man watched her with wistful eyo. Whon, with considerable trouble, I she changed tho homc-mado ladder from its {accustomed place to tho gablo near her chamber window, an amused chuckle and a knowing glasce wero the only signs of unusual mental activity on the old man's part. When she arrayed herself in her best ROWA and donned her limited amount of finery, the old man's perception kept good pace, and as no adequate excuse was offered by her for such an unusual event, tbe intuition which the old man had of coming trouble became a fixed opinion, and he murmured to himself: "She'll never marry Al without zny consent." As tho evening fell upon the quiet country- side, the old man pleaded unusual fa* tigue and early went to his little bed-room on tbe ground floor of the cabin. Lucy went very carefully about the house pax*ic- AL A S D I X C T GASPED. ularly anxious that the old man should' sleep soundly. When all was still she creeped up to her littlo attio room, the stairs creaking twice as loud as ever they did before. Quietly the old man slipped from his room; tremblingly and falteringly found his way out of tho cabin; walking on the grass at the side of the path, and creeping feebly in the shade of some currant bushes, he at last gained the turnpike and craftily walked a little distance from the house. He was now safe from detection, Lucy's window, at which sho must be watching being in the gable towards Al's house. A sound of approaching wheels is a significant one to both watchers. To Lucy,' who with palpitating heart is trying to pierce tho night-enveloped road, it sounds like Al's horse and carriage. To the old man it is tho chance for which he had hoped. The carriage draws nearer. Tho gravel is crunchingly ground under tho horse's feet as he walks up the hill; Lucy is half out the window, but the carriago passes on. Controlling her disappointment the girl anxiously awaits Al's coming, her prospective joy being alternately choked by her knowledge of disobedionco to her father's wishos. The passing carriage reaches tho hollow beyond Lucy's hearing, and the old man asks its neighborly occupant for a ndo to town, which is granted without question, though it did seem queer that tho infirm old man should be going to the village at that hour to malep the clergyman a visit, and that the prospective visit should cause such evident excitement. At length Lucy hears Al's horse coming slowly up the turnpike, walking as if only some Important ovent should have caused him to bo taken out his stable so late at night. Be is stopped at tho top of the hill by a slight pressuroon the reins, and stands quietly, watching Al creep up the path to tho cabia. Lucy is gontly and quietly helped down the rough laddor; with trepidation tho pair discover that their beating hearts make more noiso than any thing else. Tho carriage is reached, a gentle whinny from the horse indicating that he is glad of the success so far. Ho is sent ahead cautiously at first until quite a distanco from the cottage, whe?n ha is urged to his best gait, and bounds by Cunningham's so fast that the farmer remarks to his wife That Deacon Wells must be "took worse . .-in',", rendering tho doctor's attention i^eessary. With sweating and panting sides the horse draws up to the clergyman's door, at which, fortunately, the elopers think, alight is visible. They onter tho house, and are a triflo disappointod when tho minister does not seem surprised to seo them. "You camo to be married, 1 suppose?" smilingly said tho man of God. "Yes; but how'd you know we did?" asks Al. " Woll, young persons seldom call on me at this time of night unless there is some urgent reason, you know," said the bland offioiator at wedding feasts. "Well, you see, Blder," said Ai, with unpardonable effrontery, "I've been toluble busy cuJtivatin' corn to-day, and reoly couldn't spare the time." •'Ah-h," said tho Eldor, with rising inflectionr "Areyou quite ready?"

We clip the following true version from the Williamston Enterprise: We would rather live in a graveyard and 1 i - ton perpetually to a funeral dirge, t.lian .to t r y to be prosperous,! where the loading man-of a town have no laith in its future and are always . - " i predicting some disappointment or dire calamity. It was the exercise of live- ! ly faith—a faith that was as strong as I Hercules and as agile as the limbs of a I a gymnast that built the mo:»t ot o u r cities. Ileav(,-ii is being populated by faith and hell is being tilled by the wont of it. T h e people of a prosper-j oas town have faith in each other, ' faith in the virtue and faith in God. ! and they forge a h t a ! as if they were ] going to live foreyer and then have a • | new lease of life. The doubter a n d t h e ; (growler are the worst t-ucinv of p r o - 1 j gress—a sort of in. htmare to advance- ' , ment—and if they t ould he induced to ; j immitate the last. rn:t in lite ot J u d u s j ' Iscariot they wouid perhaps serve the i I only purpose .for which they w e r e ' ; created, namely, to furnish a horabie I examj^e. j ' Road Making—Its connection with t h e ; I Dairy. I For th* llureau of Pi'irv Information, Ohicftsro,"1 J 111., by J, II. .Mourad. j W h a t has road making to do with tbe Dairy ? some one will exclaim, and | : at t h e fi, -i glance it mav seem a little ' i t ^ t far fetcheu to connect the two subjects, i yet they are very nearly connected. In the good ohi times when no creamery, no eliec-••' faetory evisfed. and when the farmer markete<l his butter once a wr-^k or one1 a month, accordi n g to his having other business in t h e ; "store," the i. ads had uo niun; to do with t h e Dairy than they had with any other branch of larmini/. hut ;,t the present time, when yon can l a r d t v pick out. a single road where the ere un or milk wa^on lias not its daily route, the road becomes an im; ortant factor in the Dairy. ' Do we reallv estimate the value of a 1 iT if ' •• • in m * > • • ! • .1 i • i • » • - • • n — n . . i i - i • - r . .i ' - i . i . . , . - 1 — good road a t i t | proper figure? 1 tbink not. Do we remember the time lost on a poor road, t h e wear and tear on o u r teams a i d wagons? I fear n o t . Do we estimate t h e moral effect of a bad road, t h e openly expressed u cuss" words, t h e &till worse silent "cussea," which sour a n d deatroy o u r t e m p e r ? No! I do not believe t h a t we estimate the importance of good roads a t their r i g h t y a l u e . I t is, indeed, a n important little detail in t h e creamery and cheese factory, it a load of milk has to be hauled six miles, and o w i n g to bad roads, is jolted for an unnecessary extra half hour, instead of being r u n smoothly and quickly over a well made road. Do y o u think that will make no difference in the final result oi dollars and cents in dividends? It the cream spends three or four hours more on t h e road in a broiling sun, do you tbink t h e b u t t e r t r y e r will n o t ftnd it out? How is it t h a t in a " g o ahead" country like ours we have n o more good roads? I tbinjk it is because t h e whole system of roadmaking is wrong. Good road-making is an a r t which should be studied, consequently, t h e road-making should be in charge ot a competent, well«paid county engineer. Instead ot t h e farmers " t a k i n g a rest'' on t h e road (and I tbink most ot you will acknowledge that y o u don't work on t h e road with the same energy as on your farm), the. engineer should make out specifications and estimates of t h e work to be done and call for bids. Thus t h e work will be better done a n d cheaper done, and if t b e work is let in small contracts there is an open chance for those farmers who prefer to do t h e work themselves, to earn t h e money where-with to pay t b e necessary taxes or special assessment. The time nas been when t h e present system was suitable a n d practical.])ust as the lime has been when every farmer raised his own wheat a n d and had it ground. B u t when we now have o u r eyes opened to the fact that it may pay us better to crrow oats, sell them a n d oiiy wheat flour, it seems to me t h a t we might see the ad visibility of h a v i n g our roads made by those who understand it and spend o u r time at somet h i n g we understand and by which we can make more money than is wanted to make the road. There a r e thousands of miles where it may be too expensive to gravel or •macadamise" the roads, but I have seen Jots of roads where the mire was six to twelve inches deep, and where larg^ rocks lay on the s u r r o u n d i n g fields waiting the dymanite a n d the stone crushing machine, fo become a blessing instead of being a nuisance. Let thd t u i n k i n g farmers consider this subject, and even if a heavy debt is contracted by the county, it will be found that money spent honestly on road improvements rs well spent indeed. ,>. mwm—mmmmmWm*mmm "Try Ayer's Pills" For Rheumatism, Neuralgia, and Gout. Stephen Lansing, of Yonkere, N. Y., Hays: " Recommended a.s a cure for chronic Coativeness, Ayer'w Pilia have relieved me from that trouble and also from Gout.

"By the use of Ayer's Pills alone, I cured myself permanently of rheumatinm which had troubled ine several montbn.

A Peculiarly Sad Death; M i u Esther Ford of Lansing, a very estimable young lady of 28 years, sister of Congressman Ford apd Miss Fannie Ford, necretary of the state board of corrections und charities, was spending the evening with a party of friends on the evening of July 29. About nine o'clock she left the Early, bidding them good-night. At 10:80 er sister went lo their room for the pur- Sise of retiring for the night. She found iss E s t h e r lying on the bed, without having disrobed. Her face was buried in the pillow and she was apparently asleep. But, on trying to awaken her, the horrified sister found that she was black in the face and dead. Friends and physicians were hastily summoned, b u t nothing could be done. A bottle of chloroform was fouud on the bed clothes near the ill-fated girl's hand, and that told the story. The physicians, however, are of the opinion that she merely inhaled enough of the vapor to cause unconsciousness, then before its full effects could be felt, turned over and buried her face in the pillow. Death followed from suffocation. A coroner's jury was summoned, and a verdict of accidental death was returned. Michigan News Briefly Told. State fair opens at Jackson September 10.

Six more, burned so badly that they will j/Ffjbably die, were removed to various hosp^ uls. The house was a rant shackle affair hidden in the middle of the block, the only entrance to it being a narrow alleyway from the Bowery. In front of it was a"fourstory building, uti the. first Moor of which was a saloon called. " T h e White House." Adjoining this is Harry Miner's People's 'Theatre. In the rear of the burned building were two houses,,hemming it on the Chryawe street side. In this ca',red-in building lived about 150 people. Each of the six Itoors was occupied by a single family, the head of which was a tailor who made dothing for the cheap 'wholesale clothing houses and employed from'fifteen to twenty men, women and children, in addition to his own family, in making up the clothing. They were all Polish Jews and employers and employed worked late and slept in tho crowded rooms of the dingy tenement.

Are these emigrants, or any portion of uhem, assisted to come to this country under labor contracts against the existing laws of the United States i 4. A r e false inducements used by steamship companies, labor contractors or others to increase immigration to the United States? 5.

England Hold* ¢30,000,000 Worth of Our Property. Summary of W a s h i n g t o n N"»w». in response to a senate resolution calling upon him for evidence in the troasury department relating to property of the United States, or to which the United States has a valid claim, which is held in adverse possession, the secretary of the treasury has transmitted to the senate reports of the solicitor of the treasury and the commissioner of internal revenue on tho subject. The acting solicitor in his report says there is no personal property in charge of his office, but it has been suggested that there is personal property now held in adverse possession to which the United States has a valid claim. If this be true it would probably bo udvisable to recommend an appropriation for its detection and recovery. According to a letter from Mr. Littlepage, lately employed us agent of the troasury department, to the solicitor of the troasury, dated Oct. 1«, 1887, it seems that he was employed to assist in "the prevention aud detection of frauds upon the customs revenue." Continuing ho s a y s : "After my several conversations with you I Infer that ray especial assignment will be to recover such properties belonging to the late confederate states as have boeu fraudulently or improperly diverted or concealed." In concluding, ho says: "Above all, I desire that my special assignment shall bo kopt a profound secret." In a letter dated Nov. 17, 1S87, he says he went to his homo in King William county, Va., t'> examine his old confederate papers made and received while in Europe under the orders of the confederate state government, to obtain accurate data. Ho says he fouud that in the winter of 1804 ha was ordered to the confederate ship the Texas, alias the Pampeiro. The vessel was built at Glasgow as a No. 1 ship-of-war, and wasjto have received her armament and equipment while lying off the coast of England by another vessel. Capt. Henry Sinclair of the confederate states navy, superintended the construction of the vessel, her cost beiug $1,400,000, all of which was fully paid by the confederate government. The vessel, ho says, started out to sea, but having been reported as a confederate cruiser, was seized. Capt. Sinclair rather than carry ,ner. through the courts secured her release by guaranteeing that she should not go into the h a n d s of the confederacy until they should be eutitled to have her. He then ebai/tered her, and w h e u a f e w mouths after thei-onfederacy collapsed, she was sailing under the same charter. He adds that this vessel was fully paid for by the confederate government and should belong to the United States. She is still valuable and is now trading betwoen Edinburgh and Copenhagen. He adds that there are several other Clyde built steamers constructed by the confederate government, similarly disposed of by their agents or captains, which should now belong to the United States. There were also two powerful rams, built by Laird & Co., on the Mersey, ostensibly for the Chinese government, but inspected. au«l tested by confederate officers. They were, he says, seized by tho British authorities and were finally disposed of by the confederate agents in charge and aro now in the British navy, having recently been seen by Admiral Luce at* Bermuda Hying the British flag. Mr. Littlepage also speaks of certain Clyde-built steamers and rams built in France for the confederates, aud also states that parties who recently visited Capt. Sinclair's house found that its linen, crockery, cutlery, etc., bore tho letters "C. S. N. II," which are supposed to have come from tho Texas. He adds that two new Clyde-built steamers, the City of PetersJ burg aud Old Dominion, which were built for the confederate government and paid for by it, are now running between Liverpool and Dublin. Mr. Littlepage files an itemized statement of confederate property unrecovered by tho United States government amounting to *ao,000.0»X), most of which is in English hands. He estimates that there are six millions worth in the United States, not. including the value of many millions of dollars worth of cotton belonging to the •Mnfcderate government shipped from Brownsville, Galveston and Motamoras since the war. The value of the United States's mineral t.utnut for 1SN7 is reported at $&IS,050,:W5, which is about $100,.000,(XX> greater than the great'yield of IKS;"). In pig iron alone the increase was $:lrt,0»X>,0<X), and copper showed a large advance. The present year already indicates a considerable falling off. The house has passed the bill increasing the pension of Emanuel Custer of Monroe, father of Geu. George A. and Capt. Tom Custer, to $50 per month. The pension is given him as father of Capt. Tom Custer, the general's widow also being in receipt of pension. Chief Justice Fuller will tako the oath of office in September. The facts elicited thus far in the investigation prove indisputably that the emigration lawn of 1882 have been violated. The. commissioner of the general land oftiee has called upon tho St. Louis & San Francisco railroad company to restore 90,- H'J7 acres of land to tho government, which w a s erroneously patented to the Atlantic & Pacific railroad company, to which the St. Louis & San Francisco railroad company succeeded.

Senator P a l m e r has Introduced by req u e s t in the senate a bill proposing t o ' substitute silver bullion for one-half ot the $100,000,000 gold held by the treasury for the redemption of United States notes. To effect this change, tho bill authorizes tho purchase, with gold coin, of $8,000,000 worth of silver bullion a month, which is to bo substituted in the redemption fund for the gold coin withdrawn. The bill also provides for redeoming United States notes with gold coin and silver bullion or standard silver dollars, and for coining the silver bullion in the redemption fund when the normal ratio 15¼ or 7(5 to 1 between gold and silver is reached. The senate tariff bill is rapidly approaching completion at the hands of tho subfinance committee. It will be reported to tho full committee in a day or two, and will be in tho sonato by August 15. There is no doubt t h a t tho f ramers of tho bill are seriously considering tffi5 "advisability of making a slight cut in tho lumber schedule. The Kansas senators and those from othor western states are urging the committee to do this, as they say the people of those localities will not relish a big oat in their sugar, and none on lumber. T h e Michigan senators do not think the lumber schedule will be interfered with, and the member* of the finance committee do not admit t h a i it will be. They do admit, however, t h a t the proposition is under advisement, and t h a t it is not impossible t h a t some slight reductions will be made as a necessary concession to harmony and unity of action among the republican senators.

P A I D T H E * P E N A L T Y . " B l i n k e y " Morgan Suffer* D e a t h . -r-Hiatory of t h e Crime. "Blinkey" Morgan was hanged atColambus, Ohio, on the morning of the 3d inst. for the murder of Detective Hulligan on the Cleveland and Pittsburgh express on the night of Feb. 4, 4887. The facts leading up to the crime are as follows: On the morning of Jan. 28, 1887, the fur store of Benedict & Kudey, 245 Superior street, Cleveland, was entered just at daybreak by burglars and $8,000 worth of seal skin sacquea and furs taken. The robbory was mysterious, since the place was closely guarded and watched by the regular police and private watchmen. Thirty-six garments in all were taken. As soon as the robbery became known to the police, Capt. Henry Hoehn gave orders for his men to watch all tho roads leading to the Cleveland & Pittsburgh, and the New- York, Pennsylvania & Ohio rosds. The burglary occurred on Friday morning, and on Sunday at 3 a. m. Thomas Storey, an Ohio coal dealer was arrested QM being the man who, on tho Friday night previous, had drlvon three men and twe Saratoga trunks to the Cleveland A; Pittsburg railway station at Bedford. H e after ward confessed that the men had paid him a round sum for hauling them there, on condition t h a t he keep his mouth shut; thut when half way to the station one of his horses had given out aud the men had entered a barn by the wayside and stolen a h o r s e with which to continue their journey. Tho three men purchased tickets to Allegheny City, Pa. The Pittsburgh police were notified and Henry McMunn, a noted crook, was arrested as ouo of tho probable burglars. Requisition papers were secured and Capt. Hoehn and Detective Hulligan of Cleveland prepared to take their man, back to the scene of his crime. When tho 11 o'clock train for Clovwlond reached Ravenna, the two officers were set upon by a band of thugs, and after Hulligan had been half murdered and Hoehn so badly injured that he lay for months hovering between life and death, the prisoner, Mc Mimii, was unshackled from .Jus captors and hurried away by the desperadoes. Hulligan and Hoehn were taken to Cleveland that night, and after lingering in great agony until Feb. S, Hulligan died of his injuries. A reward of f 16,000 was offered for the apprehension of tho murderers, and detectives from all parts of the country flockod to ttie scene. After a number of suspects had been arrested and released, suspicion pointed to three men as tho probable murderers— namely, Charles Morgan, Bill Hanley and P a t Harrington. They were apprehended at Alpena, Mich., June 28, 1887, Morgan being captured at the house of relatives, and the so-called Hanley and Harrington at the dock, as they were about leaving the place for parts unknown. During tho struggle with Morgan Sheriff Lynch of Alpena was shot in tho leg, and blood poisoning setting in later ho died In great agony at A hospital in Detroit, whither he had been taken. The prisoners were taken, heavily ironed, to Cleveland by boat, thence to the county jail, and from there to the P o r t a g e county jail, where they were closely guarded. During the trial the most intense excitement prevailed. Morgan w a s found guilty of murder in the first degree, and arrived at tho penitentiary in Columbus ou Thanksgiving day of last year. T h e two men supposed to be Hanley and Harrington were identified as James Robinson and John Coughlan. Both w e r e found guilty and brought to the penitentiary, but Coughlan has since proved an alibi and is a free man. Robinson's chance* are good also for eventually being cleared of the charge. The fight to save Morgan's lifo has been bitter, and his attorneys, Eddie and John- ' son. have left no stone unturned to clear ' their client. Morgan has been twice respited; the case has been carried up on error from the common ploas to tho circuit court, and from thence to the supreme court,»( both the upper courts sustaining the decis^ { ion of tho lower. Tho board of pardons "! has also carefully considered the case and found no reason why Morgan's sentence should be commuted to life imprisonment. A numerously signed petition, presented by some of the leading citizens of Columbus to IJov. Foraker asking that Morgan's sentence be commuted, met with no better succoss, and guilty or innocent he has expiated his crime on tho gallows, within the 4. walls of the Ohio peniteutiary. Morgan loft a note, which was made public after tho execution, protesting his innocence of the crimo, declaring that he was in Philadelphia at the time the m u r d e r was committed, and that if opportunity was given him ho could prove it. Several days ago Morgan handed this note to tho warden, which was also made public aftor the execution: God knows everything—paBt, present and future.

"Only this, sir—\ou will wait, will you not?'' "Wait- For what?'' "For her—fir Miss Beat: ice. Oh!

She clutched his arm and her eyes looked at him with that same intenso imploring gazo. "I shall never marry another woman.'" said Frank. "No—never. Wait for her. She shall be yours at last'' A thought struck Frank. Did this strange woman come to him of her own accord, or had Beatrice sent her.' He heart beat violently, "Are you giving nae a message from Miss Clauson?'' he asked. ' "No, sir. Miss Beatrice is not one to send messages by servants. She doesn't know that I have come to you. You t n i i ' t tell her, Mr; Carruthers? Promise <* p * you won't te/1 her!" ' Her face grewVpaler than before, as the P«HiblIltyot Camithers's telling Beatrice of this nocturnal interview rose before her. She seemed so distressed that Frank kMtoned to assure her ho would not mention the matter. Strange as was this vwnan's manner, something showed him ttttt the meant him well. 9 ••She would never forgive me If she knew," She whispered these wov is in an awestruck way, as if such a thing was too fearful to contemplate. "Tell me why you trouble yourself about my affairs'.'" asked Frank. •'Why do 1 trouble! Because she is all In this world and Me next to me. Because I would kill myself to save her from a p a n of mind or body. Listen, Mr. Carruthers. \ ears> ago she was then but a girl of s: even teen or eighteen—she saved me from starvation, from death, from worse. She fed ate, clothed me, called me back to life, and sa v that I lived.

"This is sheer idolatry,'' he said, not unkindly. "Call It what you will, air. I mean all I say, and more." j "And because you are so iond of her, i you wsh to see her future in my hands, feeling sure it w II be a happy one?" "Yes, sir.

"What do you mean?" asked Frank In bewilderment She clasped her thin hands together; her eyes .-hone with strange brill ancy. "Mean!" she exclaimed, so loudly that Frank glanced at the door to make sure that it was closed. "Mean!1' Can it be poss.hle that those blessed ones who are predestined to be saints hereafter can walk the earth and know it not I can see i t can read it on your fa-e—on Miss Beatrice's fa e.

His bewilderment was succeede I by pitying curiosity, tempted by sarcasm. "if one could believe It, it would be x ery sat sfactory," he cont'nued. "Tell me why you feel so sure about i t Our creed must differ from yours." "Creed''' she burst out "You were chosen before there was any creed in the world.

' ' T is is predestination' with a vengeance. ' thought Frank. "Why do you feel so sure about Miss Clauson and me?" he asked. •1 can read it in your faces.

" 1 : s c exclaimed, and a shudder as terror ran through her: "I have prayed day and night—day and night— thafan answer may be given me, that a sign may be shown to me. The answer has been given." "Well, you found it all right, I.hope," s a d Frank, to humor her. She leaned forward, and iigain clutched his arm. "Tarn 'o.ie of the many,' " she siid. in a low. ihr lling whi-per. Her face \\ore a look of utter hopelessness. Frank i itied the poor creature from t e bottom of his heart. ••My good woman," he said, "your belief is simply a diabolical one. <;et rid of it, and trust that there is some mercy to be sho-vn to ti oso wrho ask for It.

A thought struck Carruthers. •Wait a mo rent," he said. "I should like to write a line to Miss Claus: n." ' Love letters will cfo no goo I. sir. " 'St is not a hue letter, ' said Frank, somewhat sharply. Mrs. Miller waited. Ho took a sheet of paper, After what had happened he felt he could not address the woman he loved as "My Dear Miss Clauson," and he did not dare to write "My I ear Beatrice." So his letter began abruptly, without address of any kind. Moreover, it was very short Here it is: "Now that 1 have asked my question, and you have given \ our ; nswer, te!l me would you rather I left this place at once, or stayed on as I intended.— Yours, F.C. " He handed the letter to Mrs. Miller. She took it in a reluotant manner. "You have not written anything unkind to her.'" she asked. "Nothing. Take my word for It. " "And you promise you will wait?" "I must wait, whether I like it or not. " said Frank, rather bitterly. "Gooi-nightstr. " Mrs. Miller eurtosied, and stole noiselessly from the'room. Frank fell back into a reverie. At last he wont to bed, wondering what answer he would receive to his letter. It Is to be hoped the promise he ma ie Mrs. Miller was to be more sacred than those made to Horace and Herbert, for he blew out the* lamp anyhow, and left the hearth-rug to take care of itself. Alas for the "hope eternal!" It was all but crushed In the morning by a note from Beatrice, which, with the pathos attending modern emotional inc dents, was brought in with Ills shaving water. It ran so: "Please go away—H. C." Then she added in a postscript—"Don't think me unkind. It Is better for your sake. " He crushed the paper In his hand, and no doubt cursed, not Beatrica, but his Illluck. Ho could not go away that day. He felt that such a sudden departure would set the brothers gossiping and trying to account for its cause. But, as persons generally do in such extremities, he received a letter or a telegram, the nature of which made It imperative he should leave on the morrow. The moment for departure came. Horace had taken the reins. Herbert was beside him. Frank's p rtmanteaus were stowed away in the big wagonette. Ho turned to shake hands with Heatrlce. "I came here an invalid in body," ho said to himself; "1 go away with a chronic mental disease. The exchange Is a sorry one." "Won't >ou como with us, Beatrice?" asked Herbert She drew back her outstretched hand, and hesitated. Frank turned lils eyes away. He would Inno way plead fur, this concession. Suddenly, and In a defiant way, which such a trivial matter by no means seemed to call for, she evclaimed, 'Yea, I will come. Wait for me one minute." In one minute, literally she was back again, in her hat and jacket, and seated opposite Frank. Few words passed between them during the drive to the station. A mere gaod-by was all they said as Frank took his seat in ; the traJn: but as that train rolled out of Black town as his eyes for the last time met I'ea r'cea, fairly and fully, Mr. ( arruthers's heart leaped in a way which j wcul I have been a credit to a boy's of; eighteen and once more and forever he < knew that no vanity of his had led him to dare to think that in Miss Claus n's manner toward him there was an undennable inscrutable "s mething," which had led him to risk and apparently lose alL S* "hope et rnal" spr ng a«a n and the conviction fori ed it elf on Mr. Carruthers that the day might come when, in spite of his conclusion number three he must perforce ' grovel. " And, notwithstanding his pride, this fact was by no means an unpleasant one! [TO BB CONTINUED. | To Dig Up Babylon. Daniel / . Noorlan of Newark. N.

And the Lord spake unto Moaee after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they offered before the Lord u d died; 2. And the Lord said unto Mosea: Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he conae not at all times into the holy place within the veil before the mercy seat which ia upon the ark i that he die not; for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat 8. Thus shall Aaron come into the holy place; with a young bullock for a sin offering-, and a ram for a burnt offering. 4. He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches upon his flesh, and s^all be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen mitre shall he be attired ;tbose are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water and so put them on. 5. And ha shall take of the conjrrefiration of the children of Israel two kids of the gouts for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering. 6. And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house. 7. And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. 8. And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the Lord, and the other lot for the scapegoat. y. And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the Lord's lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. 10. But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the Lard, to make atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness. 11. And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make atonement for himself, and for his bouse, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering which is for himself. 12. And he »hall take a censer full'of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the Lord, and his hands fall of sweet incense beaten small and bring it within the vail: 13. And he shall put the incense upon the frre before the Lord, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy-scat t'hat is upon the testimony, that he die not: 14. And he shall tike of the blood of the bullock, and spriukle it with his finger upon the mercy-seat eastward; and before the mercy-seat thall he sprinkle of the blood with his liu:rer seven times. 15. Then shall h) kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the vail, and do with that bload as he did with the blood of the bullock, and s-prinkle it upon the mercy-seat and before the mercyseat: V). And he shall make atonement for the holy plaoe, becuuse of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins; and so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that remaineth among them in the midst of their uncleanness.

Peaceful and happy succession of religious observance had been inaugurated and Israel's prosi>ects were auspicious when disobedience in high places occurred. Nadab and Abihu, son9 of Aaron, disregarded the command and entered the sanctuary in unrit mind and offered strange fire. They paid by loss of life the penalty of their disobedience ("for tire from the Lord devoured them"). It was in view of that sad catastrophe that Moses was instructed to warn Aaron in regard to carelessness or lack of reverence in his approaches to the Holy of Holies. The fire first, kindled upon the altar, miraculously lighted from heaven, was to be kept continually burning by supplies of fuel. Sacrifices, therefore, throughout their generation would be consumed by this holy fire, as token of divine acceptance aud approval. (It is claimed by the Jews that this fire upon the altar never went out, until Israel's captivity in Babylon.) Nadab and Abihu, evidently, thought so small a matter as the kind of fire was a mere form, a non-essential, hence they disregarded the "pattern" and substituted unhallowed embers as suiting bes-t their pleasure and convenience. LESSON' NOTES'. V. 1. The Lord spake unto Mosee. Moses seemed to have served as interpreter as well as mediator botween Jehovah and men. As Aaron's two soas had become careless in the discharge of their official duties, so might Aaron. As he entered daily the holy place to burn incense and trim the golden lamps, he might by custom think he could also go into the Holy of Holies when he chose. The commands were s|K?ciflc as to order of service and purification before entering this holy place. Aaron knew this from the first, and so did Nadab, and Abihu. It is not for us to query why a certain form is required, it is ours to obey. Following the sill of Nadab and Abihu, Moses gave instructions as to clean and unclean things, both animate and inanimate, closing with full directions concerning the purifying of the priesthood, the people, and the taberuacle. This special service was an annual occasion intended as a covering of the sins and transgressions of the year which might have failed of mention in the daily sacrl-ficos. The day of Atonement was'the only fast day (a day of humiliation aud solemnity), others were occasions of joy and festivity. It occurred (varying according to the new moon) about the first of October, the 7th month of the religious year (dating from the departure from Egypt) and the first month of the civil year. It was on this occasion that they were to "afflict their souls," and "do no work at all; it shall be a Sabbath of rest unto you" ; an occasion for public acknowledgment of sin and humiliation therefor. On this occasion,and this only, the high priest was to enter the holy of holies within tho veil and make full and completo atonement. [With so much care was this ceremonial guarded, that upon the completion of the temple, preparation for it was begun seven days in advance. The priest was removed from his own house and family, and dwelling in a chamber of the temple, gave himself to preparation of mind andbody, that he might bo fully consecrated to the'duties involved.] All of this was intended to emphasize the sinfulness of sin and God's abnorrenee of it, and the certainty of deathaovertaking the heedless or obdurate. Hence the rending of tho veil ofthe temple at Christ's crucifixion signified that perfect atonement had been made, whereby all might approach tho Holy of Holies (God) with safety through the offering (once for all) of Jesus: "Seeing that we have a great high priest, that is passed into tho heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us como boldly unto the throno of grace that we may obtain mercy," etc. Christ having conquered sin, opened a new and living way through the veil of his fiesh, and we, without fear of death, may draw nigh unto God through him. ATON'EMEXT FOR SELF. The services of atonement day began with tho offering of sacriflco for the priest himself, for if he be not clean he could not come before God in behalf of tho people. Every detail had significance, his person was thoroughly washed, ho was clothed in "holy garments" from the head to tho feet pure and white, typifying tho. purity and livery of heaven "so the church is described aa "arrayed to tee linen, clean and white; for the fine linen is the righteousness of aainta." By the offering of u a bollock" aa personal sin offering he was ceremonially justified before God. This waa purchased with the priests' money, since he, like the chief of sinners, must partake of the mercy smd forgiveness of God. Standing In higher official relation he brought a more "costly sacrifice." With both hands upon the head of the bullock, and his face toward the east, where were assembled the worshipping people he confessed: "O, Lord, I have sinne-J und done perversely and transgressed, I und my house, purge me from all sin that I may be clean." Five animals are named in the law as suitable for sacrifice, the ox, the sheep, the goat, the dove, the pigeon. Vlt is worthy of notice that these were all offered by Abraham in the great sacrifice of the Covenant described in Genesis xv.) These animals are clean according to the Lovitical division into clean and unclean. They were the moat important of those used for food. The three kinds of quadrupeds were domesticated in flocks and herds and were recognized as property, constituting a great part of the wealth of the people in that age. Three conditions were met therefore in the sacrifice of these quadrupeds. (1) They were clean, (2) they were domesticated, (8) thejr were a part of the personal property of the sacrificer. If a man were rich, ha brought as his heart prompted to honor God, thewbest of his herd. Those less able would bring a sheep or a goat, those still poorer brought a turtle dove or a pigeon. Those chosen for a sacrifice were of creatures mild and gentle, typifying innocence and:meekness. The Jews claimed that the sacrifice of birds was one of the most difficult services devolving upon the priest: and that greater care was necessary, the lesson beinjr thus taught: that those who minister in holy things should be as solicitous for the souls of the poor as those of the rich; and that their offering was as acceptable to God, for he expects "according to what a man hath." ATOSTEMEXT TOR THB PEOPUB. Having effected personal reconciliation with God. The High Priest proceeds to make atonement for the people. Two kids (eounted as one offering) were purchased by the contributions of the congregation. These lambs of equal size and value were presented at the door of the tabernacle near the worshippers. On the north of the altar was an urn in which were coin, some marked for "Jehovah" others for"A2azel" (scape goat) The high priest shook the urn and thrusting in his hand drew forth two lots and placed them on the head of each goat. The one on which rested the word "scapegoat" was led before the people and "facing them waited, as it were, till their sins should be laid on him." The goat upon which fell 'the Lord's' lot was offered as a sin offering while the scape goat was led into tho wilderness or "uninhabited land;" signifying that the sin expiated by the life of the one was borne away never again to be remembered. "There is, in the matter of atonement, a part which belongs to God only, and which is offered to God only. Sin is a guilty ,thing, for which satisfaction must be made. This satisfaction is rendered to God. In this transaction man has no part whatever. The blood of atonement is not offered to man, but to God. Here judgment and death are put upon the goat offered to the Lord, and man's sin is punished and expiated. There are those who claim that there is nothing in the nature or character of God which requires from us an expiation of sin; and therefore, nothing so inherently sinful and guilty that God may not pass it, by simple forgiveness. But we learn from this, that God's holiness aud justice require that he punish sin by judgment aud death. This is what was done by the one offering which Christ made for our sin. It must be clearly understood that sin is something that God must take account of wholly apart from the question of man's salvation. Sin must be met and expiated, whether man be saved or not. It is a part of the gracious purpose of God in dealing with man, to give him the benefit of this expiation and provide for his return through the oi>en door of forgiveness in connection with the putting away of ein. Therefore, we understand how expiation of sin by Christ 'for the whole world,' 'for every man," is made efficient for salvation only for those who. through faith and repentance come back to God. There is no waste in this work of Christ because some do not believe, since it is something done to God entirely apart from man's acceptance. God's glory could not be purged of the affront offered to it, until sin had been put away by the amazing sarrinYe which Christ accomplished. The punishment of sin does not glorify God in this respect; it is the work of Christ which does. "The goat on which the lot fell to be the scape goat shall be presented alive before the Lord. Here we have man's side and share in the atonement. This goat was offered to the people, as the former one was offered to the Lord. Showing how the sin of the people, which had been expiated by 'the Lord's lot' is now carried unto the wilderness by "the popple's lot.' Thus is typified tho forgiveness and forgetfulness of our sins by the Lord, when we accept his atonement and make it ours.-Pentecost. V. 14. Sprinkle the blood upon the mercy feat seven times. Seven signified com pleteness. The blood did not affect a partial reconciliation; it was a complete and satisfactory atonement. All of this accomplished, the high priest returned toward the sanctuary and a second time laid his two hands on the bullock (which still stood between tho porch and the altar) to confess over him his personal sins and those of his own household. Then the high priest slew the bullock and the blood was caught, and later sprinkled upon the mercy seat. In like manner were slain the sacrifices of the people. V. Id. Atonement for the tabernacle. Moral uncleanliness defiles everything with which it comes in contact. Israel could learn the lesson in no other way. During the London plague, not only did merchants refuse to commingle with the diseased, but articles were laid down in a distant locality and tho coin in payment for these necessaries was dropped in a basin of disinfectants, lest plague cling to tho metal. So the Israelites were to cleanse the tabernacle which their sin had defiled. SUGGESTED THOUGHTS. A6 the holy fire was ever to be kept burn- »• ing on the ancient altar, so in our lives the flame of holy love should never go out, but be bright aud burning as wc regularly offer unto God the homage of our lives. Sins to be forgiven must be acknowledged and confessed. Those who hold official positions in the church are alike sinners, saved by tho grace of God. Before teaching others they should experience in life the blessedness of the precepts they inculcate. The offering for the congregation was furnished by them. One rich man might have bought the sacrifice for the whole— . not so, t h 9 teaching would have been untrue to fact^-every man must be personally a participant and partaker of the grace of God. Let him whose sin has been expiated, and earriodk away by the scape goat, cease running after tho old sins; leave Che things which aro behind and press forward to. those which are before. 0 ¾ ¾ ^ ¾ ^.gfcgf ff»Y^;:^^gi|ggg W^KftNMM* THKKtfJbtffc . — * » .—*.-. .** * * * * * <^«V#»*. .A ^ J , » * 4 P'I '*, , v ' ' i!v* '• .'., S * i 5BR NEIGHBORHOOD NEWS.

Livingston Republican: A new printing firm will commence business at Brighton on August 11, under the dence, respect and patronage of Brighton business men, who will not only find him "square-toed," but olio a fiatclass printer. i The voters of the tenth congressional district are talking strongly of nominating our former townsman, Hon. D. P. Markey, as a republican candidate. The following is what the Harrisville Review says; ''Mr. Markey we believe can count upon the solid support of the republican party in this end of the district it he gets the nomination. - The Review has long felt that he is just the man to reclaim the district and it thinks so yet. He is well known in every school district by reputation, if not personally, as one of tne brightest intellects among the young men of Michigan, and his high moral character and devotion to right principles would make him such a for; midable candidate that Congressman Fisher would need the support of something more than Bay county republicans to insure him a seat in the next Congress." Under the management of Mr. Ei D. Stair, "Chip O' the Old Block," wiR be produced at the Howell Opera House on Monday evening, Aug. 20ttr. The price of admission will be 25c., 35c, and 50c. The following is what the New York Star says of the play: The laughable comedy, "Chip O' the Old Block," by Herbert Hall Wixralow; was presentedto aiarge audwiBSe at th* Third Avenue Theatre last night. The comedy is full of thrilling tableaus; songs, dances and topical hits. Mr. Robert L. Scott as the Commodore, an old sailor; Mr. Harry Mills as Jock Lightfoot, a jocky, "born in the saddle and always first at the finish," were the principal merry-makers ot the company. The burlesque on O'Connor's Othello in the second act, by Messrs. Scott & Mills delighted the au> dience. The company and comedy mav be sure of its week ot success. Farmers' Picnic.

The Platform Favors Protection, Progressive Temperance and Restricted Immigration. C«BT«ntlou Proceedings SaiamarUAd. The republican state convention was held in Detroit on the 8th and t*th inst. Preceding the first session of the convention a meeting of the state central committee was held, at which much preliminary business was transacted and arrangements made for the meetings of the district caucuses. ment with deep regret, and hereby express f ins; surplus e && national our conviction that, by the retirement of ernmental Congress began the present session on December 6. There have only been nine sessions of congress looger than this in the history of the fifty congresses. They are as follows: From November 4,1811, to J u l y 6, 1812, 245 days; from November l : \ 1797, to July 16, 17tH, 246 d a y s ; December 1, 1845, to August 10, 1840, 253 days; December 6, 1847. to A u g u s t 14, 1848, also 253 days; December 5, 1858, to August 7, 1854, 263 days; December «, 1841, to August ;;i, 1812, 369 days; December 11, 1851, to August 31, 1852, 273 days; December a, 1855, to August 18, 185% 289 days; December 3, 1849, to September 80, lsr)0, 302 days. T h e r e are only t w o or three of the last named sessions t h a t are likely to exceed the present session before it Is over. m Speaking of the destruction of property by freshets in the Ohio Valley, the National Tribune says: It is the penalty -we are paying for stripping the mountains of West Virginia of their natural covering of timb r. The evil will continue a n d increase from year to year as those helgths become barer. The only remedy Is for the United Stat s to convert the whole state of West Virginia Into a nat onal p a r k and timber preserve. It would pay the government to do this, just as it pays France and Germany to make great tracts of mountain lands into timber farms; t u t it will not be done—at least in this generation. - — -*»• An enthusiastic mourner at a Brooklyn wako recently imbibed considerable embalming fluid which the undert a k e r had neglected to take away with him.

In this way they will gradually learn to bear responsibility and acquire as much rapidity of thought and word as is consistent with Its Importance and effectiveness. T h e Bri.tsh postal telegraph system, according to the London Economist, is being operated at a loss which is increasing every year. In 18S1-2 the annual los* was £112,00?.

Hopkins called the convention to order on the afternoon of the 8th. P r a y e r was offered by the Uev. Mr, Blades of Detroit. Harry Tillman read the call for the convention, and iutroduoed as temporary chairman Major Watkins of Grand liapids, who took the chair, and in his sneeeh said that the republicans never summoned thoir forces together when the rank and file were better equipped than at present. He believed this to be a republican year, and he wanted all the people of the state to embrace republicanism, as * expounded by "Garfield, Zach Chandler and Abe Lincoln," He then quoted Gou. Harrison's remark at the Michigan club banquet, "I am a dead senator, but a living republican," and said he believed it was the providence of God that made Ben Harrison the republican standard bearer. "We believe," he said, "that America should not be the dumping ground of the pauper labor of Europe*(not Asia). We believe in a free ballot and an honest count, and we believe in upholding the industries of this country, and to this end we believe that they should be protected, and not given over to the cheap labor of England. Ou that great moral question that is of paramount importance we believe that the republican party should take no backward step. The republican party is opposed to tlv democratic- party because the latter is op posed to progress and good government. The republican party stands four-square to all the winds tiiat blow on the question of prohibition, and it represents the enterprise and push of American citizenship. We are met to select the men that will conduct the affairs of the state for the next two years. You can, by no possibility, make a mistake. As I look over the record of the state for the last thirty-two years, I can but believe that the progress is due to the men which this republican party has placed in charge of its affairs.'' Maj. Watkins then named, with pride, the several governors of the state, but awoke no response until he reached Alger. He would not forget that great "farmer'1 governor, Cyrus G. Luce. This brought out a moment's applause. He announced tha' the South was deprived by the democrats of its rightful representation iu the halls of congress through intimidation, but he was sure the republicans would see that this great wrong was righted in November next. He found fault with the fact that so many republicans had been turned out of office by President Cleveland, but he knew that after next March the republicans would be kept very busy in this direction. He then re ferred with feeling to the death of (!eu. Sheridan, and paid a short tribute to his memory. Maj. Watkins told the convention that good news was coming every day from the doubtful states, and when that Glad stone of America, that peerless citizen, James G. Blaine, reached our shores, such a wave of republicanism would go up as would lift New York and other states from the doubtful column. Capt. B. F. Graves of Adrain was made temporary secretary. Senator Farr of Ottawa moved that the convention send greetings to Hon. James G, Blaine, now in. New York. The motion was adopted by a rising vote. S. S. Babcock of Detroit moved the appointment of the usual committees and the motion was adopted and the committees appointed. Gen. Alger who was present/was invited to a seat on the plaUorm, His appearance was greeted with great enthusiasm, and when it had subsided Gen. Alger said: "If 1 could command the words to express my feelings at this reception,1' he said, "it would givo me greater pleasure to talk to you. Tho dtizens of Michigan know that I am an active man. In early life I started out to bo: a "lawyer."" I studied hard. and through the mercy of the judge I was admitted to the bar. But I soon found out that I had made a mistake and I quit the law and went to work. [Great laughter.] Wc hear many rumors and tho latest is that Gen. Harrison has withdrawn, That is done to sell newspapers, and to encourage the democrats. I wish to say to yo that the republicans are in this fight in win, and I wish to say that anything I can do, and anything I have is at the service of tho republican party. I am satisfied with the ticket, and will say that it will have my support as faithfully a9 it would have mm Senator Palmer, the legislative department of the government will lose the services of a wise statesman, the people will lose a gallant champion, and the republican party will lose from the senate a steadfast and earnest upholder of its principles and ideas. Senator Palmer's labors in behalf of the rivers and harbors of Michigan, and the shipping and commercial interests of the whole northwest, have worthily kept u p the high standard set by Zacbariah Chandler ; and the results he has reached in caring for tho mauy aud diverse interests c,f this commonwealth and its people, hr - v e shown that he is a true and devoted so a 0 f Michigan; and, In particular, his r jcent gallant tight to cgnhuo railroads &m\ other corporations within just bounds. a u j t 0 secure for tho homesteaders of t n 'e Uppor peninsula their full rights to t ' j e l r lands, entif.es him to the gratitudo o# 4 the people of this state. While wo, as republicans, deeply regret Senator Palmer's determination, we shall expect to continue to h a / e the benefit of his udvice uud counsel at all times, and especially during th'4H campaign, and to share with him the Measures of victory. Senator Jay A. Hubbell of Houghton, moved that tho resolution be referred to the committee on resolutions. The motion was adopted and Mr. Hubbell then moved that all resolutions be referred to the committee without reading. This also prevailed and the convention took a recess until the next day. Iu the evening a rousing ratification meeting was held, and speeches delivered by Gov. Luce, Cen. Alger, Hon. Jay A. Hubbell, Col. Atkinson, Hobert E. Frazor and others. The convention was called to order at 10 o'clock on the i)th inst. The committee on credentials reported accredited delegates present from all counties except Gogebic and Iron. The report was accepted aud adopted without reading, The committee on permanent organization reported the names of Hon. G. W. F a r r of Grand Haven for permanent chairman, and Col. E. M. Irish of Kalamazoo for permanent secretary. Mr. F a r r took tho chair, and thanked the convention for tho honor conferred, than which, he said, he knew no greater. He said: To-day was a day for business. But the delegates were present largely because they were fond of tho republican party for its great und historic past, and from that past they had the promiso of a grand fruitiou in tho future. If tho party could depend upon its past to how rich a feast would it sit down ! Nothing for 30 years worthy to bo remembered could be found which was not the work of the republican party. If tho democratic party could live on its record the prodigal son, who lived on the husks which the swine refused, would have died of gout. Mr. F a r r said Mr. Cleveland had vetoed more soldiers' pension bilis than all the other presidents combined. Never until Cleveland's administration had a battered hero of the war been forced to a homo in lie almshouse. Tho Fitz-John Porter case .veeived his attention—one relief bill which the president did not veto. , After Mr. F a r r ' s address the convention proceeded to the nomination of candidates for state officers. This work proceeded rapidly until attorney -general was readied, when there Was a contest, four candidates being presented—Burton Parker of Monroe; Edward E. Edwards of Newavtro; Stephen V. Ii. Trowbridge of Ionia; William H. Padghamof Allegan. An informal ballot was' ordered, aud resulted in tho choice of Trowbridge. Another contest occurred when the candidates for members of state board of education was reached. Joseph E. Easterbrook was named for re-nomination by an Eaton county delegate and ins nomination was made by acclama-' tion. Senator Giddings of Cadillac, in a telling revenues to fov* „ .. requirements by an American protective *nd republican method, and not oy an t r ^ ^ f r e o trade and democratic system, Au<j that such reduction should be made v ^ t h t n e encouragement of our indusu* 1*5*}' Jid the better wages of our workmen e v®f in view. . ™ e cordially indorse the progressive J*r aperance legislation enacted by the last ic fflslature, and regret that its full fruits ' «vere not realixed owing to the technical defects in tho laws, held by the supremo court to be in conflict with the constitution. We record ourselves as In favor of the impartial enforcement of the temperanco laws of the state and recommend to the next legislature the re-enactment of a local option law that shall be free from constitutional objections. Upon the question of pensions to union soldiers, their widows, orphans and de peudeut ones, the republican party, unlike its antagonist, is not divided by sectional prejudices, but its sentiments arc ever grateful and patriotic. We believe tho debt of gratitude we owe to the bravo dofenders of our national life can only bo discharged by extending to them such aid, and especially to their maimed, healthbroken und crippled survivors, and such care for tho dependeut ones of deceased soldiers as will bring to thorn comfort and do honor to a patriotic people, blessed with a bountiful land aud overflowing treasury. We indorse the sentiment recently uttered by our leader, Benjamin Harrison: "It is no time now to use tho apothecary's scale to weigh tho rewards of the men who saved the country." We believo in such legislation, both state and national, as wii impose severe penalties upon all organized trusts and monopolies that unjustly oppress our citizens, and do hereby declare our opposition to their existence. ** The republican party being in favor of protecting the products of American labor, also demands the protection of American laborers, and is therefore unalterably opposed to unrestruiued Chinese immigration and to tho importation of all foreign contract labor; aud believo that such laws should be enacted as will givo protection to our laboring men against such competition, aud secure to them the wages and labor to which they are rightfully ontitled. We believe also in such legislation as will ever protect the laborer in the preservation of his rights and secure to him safety in his employment. We condemn the democratic members of cougress from this stato for their willing submission to the dictation of southern democratic members and for their unreasonable and disloyal action upon "the refunding of the directtax bill" passed by the senate, and which legally and justly by its SHERIDAN EULOGI;• $ The President Sex's Messi Congress and M r a. S eriian. to speech, presented the name Powers of Cadillac, for of Perry h>- member of the state board of education. He asked for his nomination on behalf of the young republicans of northern Michigan, and as a representative of the state press. Tho name of L. O. Grosvenor of .loncsville, was also presented and a ballot ordered, which resulted in the nomination of Powers. The ticket as completed is as follows: Governor—Cyrus G. Luce of Branch. Lieutenant governor—James H, McDonald of Delta. Secretary of state—Gil Ii. Oarauii of Wayne. State treasurer—George L. Maltz of Alpena, Auditor g e n e r a l - H e n r y H. Aplinof Bay.

Superintendent of public i n s t r u c t i o n - Joseph Estabrook of Eaton, Member state board of education—Perry F . Powers of Wexford. The convention then proccded to name the electors with the following result: E l e c t o r s - A t large, ii. A. Alger of Wayne and Isaac Cappon of Kent. I.—Edward Burk. II,—Junius E. Beal.

Edwin Manning, the richest m a n In Iowa, speaking of thestatements frequently made that the fanners were impoverished and compelled to moUgage their lands, says there is not the slightest foundation or excuse for such falsehoods— t h a t one good crop would payoff all the mortgages on the farms of Iowa. A young man in Michigan Is in great trouble about his vote. He was born on the 7th of November, 1867, at nine o'clock In the evening. If the polls close at four o'clock he will still lack fiye hours of being 21 years old. He wants to know w h a t he is to do about i t had had I been the candidate. That's the way we do business in Michigan. Col, Duffleld of Detroit, offered the following resolution, which was adopted by a rising vote. Resolved, By the republicans of Michigan, in state convention assembled, that the tearful and heartfelt sympathy of this convention is hereby extended to the bereaved widow and afflicted family of that grand, noble and patriotic soldier of the union army, Gen. Phillip H. Sheridan, in whose death the nation mourns tho loss of one of its greatest chieftains and purest patriots. Burt Parker of Monroo moved that a greeting be sent to the republican state convention of Indiana, now in session, with the hope that it will nominate the winning ticket and thus redeem the stato. The motion was adopted. Alfred Russell of Detroit offered tho following resolution, and moved its adoption by a rising vote: Resolved, By the republicans of Michigan, iu stato convention assembled, as follows: Whereas. United States Senator Thomas W. Palmer has informed the republicans of this state that it is hia desire to retire to private life at the expiration of his present tonn of office, we receive this announce- THE 1'I.ATFOHM. The committee on resolutions submitted the following: The republicans of Michigan, assembled \\\ state convention, reaffirm their faith and mtidoncc in the principles expressed and ndidates selected by the national repub- ..ean party at its recent convention in Chicago. That in Benjamin Harrison we recognize undoubted integrity, high statesmanship and devoted patriotism, and pledge to him and his honorable and distinguished associate our vigorous and earnest support, We do most fully and cordially indorse the wise, economical and statesmanlike administration of Gov. Cyrus G. Luce, and commend the vigilance and courage with which he has discharged the official duties of his great office. We are also justly proud of the faithful and capable manner in which every state officer has discharged the duties of his office during the present term. We believe in that system of protection which has built up and diversified our industries, and has made us the best fed, clothed, housed and the happiest and most civilized of peoples; which has rewarded labor with wages and conditions unequalled elsewhere, and which has made our m a r - kets the envy of all the world. We arraign and censure Grover Cloveland and the democratic party for their bitter and disloyal attacks upon American industries and American labor, especially for their direct and merciless blows„aimod at Michigan, and those of her great industries which have advanced her to the front rank in the march of states. We arraign them for placing wool on tho free list, the effect of which has already been to greatly reduce the price, and which, if adopted, would absolutely drive from our farms the growing of sheep. Wo believe in a reduction of tho increaaprovisions would have turned into our state treasury nearly half a million of dollars .and^jw&ujd_&tt^j:educed tho burdcus of Mfchigantaxpayers so much. We also arraign the democratic party for its criminal insincerity in indorsing the Mills bill and nominating candidates who have declared their opposition thereto. Its pretended love of party and the barter and sale of its principles and the name of democracy to a meaningless fusion for the sake of votes. Its indefensible action in keeping Dakota from the sisterhood of states. The scurrilous vetoes of pension bills; its incompetency and failure to reduce the surplus, and for the prostitution of tho civil service so soon following the glowing declaration of the newly-elected democratic president, are but a few of their inconsistencies. We invito the intelligent voters of Michigan from the unnumbered callings to an examination of tho record and principles of the republican party, and we solicit the co operation of all who believe in the continued industrial progress of our state, ahd in tho protection of labor, the farm and the workshop, and against the dangers threatened them. After the. adoption of tho platform, Stato Senator Babcock, from tho committee on resolutions, reported that the Palmer resolution introduced the day previous had been modified by the committee. He read the following, which was adopted: Whereas, United States Senator Thomas W. Palmer has informed the republicans of this state that it is his'duty to retire to private life at the expiration of his present term of office, therefore Resolved, That by the retirement of Senator Palmer }.ho legislative department of this government will lose the sendees of a wise statesman, a gallant champion and an earnest and steadfast upholder of republican principles and ideas, We appreciate and commend his labors in behalf of tho rivers and harbors cf Michigan and the whole northwest, and in particular his recent sturdy fight to secure for the homesteaders of the upper peninsula thoir full rights to their lands, which entitles him to the gratitude of the people of this state. While as republicans wo deeply regret Senator Palmer's determination, we shall expect to continue to have the, benefit of his advice and counsel at all times, and especially during the campaign, and to share with him the pleasure of victory. While the convention was at work Hon. James McMillan was discovered in the audience. He was asked to come to the platform, and was greeted with three hearty cheers. He said: I thank you, gentlemen, and I wish to congratulate you on the nominations you have made. They are remarkably good nominations. Mr. Luce, who ran so well last year, will run a,great deal better this year, notwithstanding the boodle and Burt and the stradle platform. Michigan is no longer a doubtful state. Talking with a gentleman in New York the other day. I told him that Michigan was good for 7,00:) to 10,000 in ordinary years, but in presidential years was good for 20,000 or 30,Ml). I thank you for the reception. After cheers for Harrison and Morton and tho state ticket nominated, the conven tion adjourned. An Kpitinue ot Washington News. Upon hearing of the death of Sheridan, President Cleveland sent the following message to congress: To the senate and house cf representatives: It becomes my painful duty to announce to tho congress and to the people of t h e United States the death of Phillip H. Sheridan, general of tho urmy, which occurred at a lute hour last night, at hia cottage home in the state of Massachusetts. The death of this valiant soldier and patriotic son of the republic, though his long illness has beou regarded with anxiety, has nevertheless shocked tho country aud caused universal grief. Ho had established for himself a stronghold in tho hearts of his fellow-couiitrymen, who soon caught tho true meaning and purpose of his soldierly devotion and heroic temper. His intrepid courage; his steadfast patriotism, and tho generosity of his nature inspired with peculiar warmth the admiration of all the people. Above his grave, affection for* tho man und pride in his achievements will struggle for mastery, and too much honor cannot bo accorded to one who was so richly endowed with all the qualities which make his death a nationul loss. OuOVKK Cl.KVliJ.ANI), Executive Mansion, Washington. Tho President also issued an order directing Gen.

Eulogistic addresses were made in both houseB of congress, after which they adjourned as a mark of respect to the dead hero. Milford Jarvis of Michigan has been selected for appointment from tho civil service list to a ¢1,000 clerkship in the surgeongeneral's office. The following appointments have been made in tho interior department: W. H. Vlat of Alabama, principal examiner of land claims in tho general land office; Geo. M.

Exceptional cases will be submitted to the secretary. The command of trie army of tho United Suites falls to the senior major general, Schofield, the rank of general dying with Gen. Sheridan, and that of lieutenant general having lapsed with Sheridan's recent promotion, If congress should revive tho rank of lieutenant-general the appointment would be made by the president from the three major-generals—Scliolield, Howard and Crook. , --— The first session of the fiftieth congress, unless some radical change shall take place in tho condition of things at Washington within a short time, promises to be tho most protracted session in the history of the government. The indications are that the national legislature will not adjourn before October. A bill has boon introduced in the senate granting a pension of $r>,000 a year to Mrs. Sheridan. In the discussion of the fisheries treaty in the senate the other day, Senator Sherman said that Canada's union with tho United Slates will have been accomplished before another decade has passed. The Chinese prohibition bill passed the senate on tho Nth inst. The bill provides that from and after tho date of tho exfhango of ratifications of the pending treaty between the United States of America and his imperial majesty, it shall be unlawful for any Chinese person, whether a subject of China or of any other power to enter the United States except as this bill provides.

The attendance at the sessions of the House is very small these warm days. Senator Palmer thinks the wicked Washington lobbyist is a myth. 1 don't. The Sundry Civil appropriation has been passed by the Senate, with a large number of amendments. Mr. Outhwaite thinks the passage oi any Pacific railroad legislation at the piesent session very doubtful. The House committee on education have reported favorably the bill to establish a national industrial institute in this city. Chief Justice Fuller has leased one ot the costliest private residences in city for a long term. He will not take the oath of office until October. Many shrewd politicans think that the Senate of the fifty-first Congress will be a tie, and that the Vice-President elected in November will have the deciding vote. The Senate tariff bill has not yet been reported, and no one seems able to say just when it will be, though some republican Senators have set trie 20th inst as the date. Senators Hoar, Allison, Hale, Dolph Pugh, Eustis and Blodget, have been appointed a select committee under the Hoar resolution, to investigate the commercial relations between Canada and the United States. Senators Gorman and Edmunds had quite a wrangle on Friday on + he subjest ot Canadian railroads. Mr, Gorman twitted Mr. Edmunds with being the attorney for railroads whose interests he had to officially aet upon as Senator. The case ot the Northern Pacific railroad against Guilford Miller, a homestead settli r, which has been deeided against the railroad. The decision, it is said, affects about two thousand similar cases in the General Land Office. As soon as anything concerning the ex-soldiers is mentioned in Congress, look out for a bitter political discussion. This was exemplified in the House Thursday, when the republicans tried to put apension amendment on the general deficiency appropriation bill. The discussion covered about everything that affects the soldier, and was warmly participated in by hall a dozen members. One of the signs of the times is the alacrity with which any sort ot reso- - lution for investigating Canadian encroachment?, or alleged encroachments, on our rights, is passed by Congress. Mr. Cullom's resolution in relation to the Canadian Pacific railroad went through the Senate Friday with a rush, although opposed by influential Senator* of both parties. They ''don't tread on me" feeling it rapidly spreading in this country, and it bodes ill for —somebody. Senator Edmunds is a man of strong prejudices. He has always been opposed to open executive sessions of the Senate, but when a caucus of his party decided to consider 1 he fisheries treaty in open sessions, ho voted with thum. But he has taken; no-part in the discus-! sion, notwithstanding the tact that he is one of the best posted men on thcH i subject in the country . Not only does j lie refuse to take any part in the dis-! cussion, but he will not even occupy ! his seat while the subject is before the ; Senate. Some people are inclined to ' cntisize his acnon somewhat st'veivly-.; and to accuse him of sulking ln>rai]-.--e ! he could not have his own way. How- > ever, he is about a- in-lift'-v n! \i, tinopinio;]-. i>l u'li-•]• p»-t pi^ JIS ;inv iimn J ©ver saw. lie pruyed that fully in the' campaign of '84. Is there an organized movement to bring about a war with England? Tc some people this may appear a ludicrous question, but in view of the remarks of two Senators—Riddleler/^r and Teller -on the floor of the Senate within the past week, it btcomes a really serious question. In the course of his remarks against the fisheries treaty, Mr. Teller said that the United States would never be a free nation unless it asserted that which belonged to it, and unless it was ready and willing to stand up for that which the treaty of 1883 recognized in it - whether that were its boundaries or its independence. The people of the United States would #ret their rights peaceably if tbey could, forcibly if they must. Rather be ligerant talk for a nation without a navy, isn't it? But Mr. Riddl3berger used even stronger language. He said among other things, that we' would never be a National Government until we have whipped England for the third time. There is no denying the fact that abuse of England in any shape is popular, particularly so with the younger generation. NORTH-WESTERN SLEIGH CO., M I L W A U K E E , W I S C O N S I N , U. S.

The recent increase of insanity, epileptic fits, headache, backache, neuralgia, sleeplessness, nervousness, dyspepsia, fluttering of the heart, etc., points to an early decay of the race, unless this tendency is checked.

The political battle of this year will be the most important that has been tought in the I'-nitcd States for years. The :struggh will not only be for supremacy in the White House ond iu Congress, but it will also decide our future economic system—whether the Republican principal of protection, which has caused siieli an unparalleled development of our country in every possible line since its"adoption, slali be continued, or whether we shall plunge tile nation into financial depression, great labor troubles, bankruptcy and poverty, to carry out the theories of a stubborn and uustatesmanlike President. The 15LAIM-; will be found where it has ever stood—on' the side of the best interests of the whole people; on the side'of American workinginen as against those oi' Kurope; lor the prosperity of American manufacturers instead of those of foi'eige. lands; in favor of Ayierieau goods made by American workingman, as against the conspiracy nf the free, trade theorists and the seltish ring of importers in the Atlantic cities, who see enormous fortunes in respect as the result of the adoption of the suicidal policy "of President Cleveland ; on the side of the American farmer, whose prosperity depends far more on a home market than a foreign one; on the side of prosperity for all, rattier than poverty for the many and prosperity for the merchant importers of New York City. The r»L.\i)!-; will be made brighter a u l bettor than ever the coming year* 1 Mr. Locke had elaborated certain plans for its improvement during j 1.>M, which v, ill be fully and faith- 'fully carried out.

It is, therefore, the best nid most thoroughly reliable alterative '.hat can bo fouad for old and young. Tke Pit; and the Dairy. For the Bureau of Dairy Information, By ProL W. A Henry, Jfadlson, Wis, No farmers in the world are so favorably situated tor making cheap, wholesome pork ad are those dairy farmers in the great corn belt of the west, who, after disposing of cream or butter, still have the skim milk left tor feeding purposes. Few, however, have a proper appreciation of the value ol skim milk and consequently allow it to be disposed of in the quickest and easiest way possible. After the cream, is removed the milk becomes swill in the estimation of many and is treated as swill. To appreciate the feeding value of skim milk we must remember that milk is intended by nature for a perfect calf food and that after the cream is removed there still remain milk sugar and the casein and usually no inconsiderable portion of the fat. To throw such milk into a filthy swill barrel and allow it to become rank acid and even putrified is not an uncommon practice with many who think that since pigs will eat about everything, the more disgusting their feed can be made the more satisfactory it must be to them. It should be borne in mind that every step in the process of fermentation means waste and loss of feed value and that this rule also holds good with milk. That pigs like sour milk is a fact, but the swill barrel should be carefully watched and cleaned out often; in tact, there should be no swill barrel during the hot summer months for it is entirely too dangerous to be permitted in the hog house. Skim milk and buttermilk can easily be bandied directly from the milk pans or cans and churn in pails which snould be scalded occasionally when they become offensive. The prudent farmer will arrange to haye his stock of hogs such, at all times, as to properly and economically consume the waste of the dairy house. This requires considerable forethought and planning. In the spring when the pigs are young the supply of milk is largest; as the pigs increase in sizo and grow in appetite the milk flow diminishes until when the hogs are largest the cows are nearly dry. There can be no denying that to get the proper value from, milk, this matter should be carefully adjusted. An acquaintance of mine, a dairy farmer who has made money at his business and has a well earned reputation in this state does not raise any pigs at all as he says he cannot afford to do so; for, if he relies on his own stock to consume the waste products of his dairy he can seldom keep the proper ratio of pigs to cows. He therefore buys pigs and shoats from neighbors whom he says are always willing to sell. Havinc had years of experience he is able to anticipate just now many pigs he will need in the near future and is always on the lookout for them. He keeps the shoats he buys from sixty to ninety days but no longer, as they will not make satisfactory gains after the date. No sooner is one lot turned off than its place is taken by another and the round is kept up with considerable profit to the owner. ttO~S'H CONTIXCED,] PROBATE ORDER.—State of Michigan, County of Livingston, ss.

A Hcathlng- Arraignment* Clinton B. Fisk, prohibition candidate for president, in hia letter of acceptance, dated Seabrijjbt, N. J., July 36, and given out for publication on the 7th inst.. says, after formally accepting the nomination: Within a few years the temperance reform has altogether changed front. In the great uoutiict which baa been and is yet waging, the temperance forces no longer face tho human appetite and habit alone; tfiey oppose legislation, law, the purpose of political parties, the policy of state and nation. What law creates, law alone can kill. The creature of law, the saloon, the legalized liquor traffic, can die only at the law's baud, or the hand of the law's executor. Conceived in avaricious iniquity, born of sinful legislative wedlock, the licensed suloon. the legalized liquor traffic, bastard child of a civilization possessing purity and virtue, must be strangled by the civilization which begot it, or that civilization must go forever branded with the scarlet letter of its ovvu shame. No party which is made public administrator by tho euemics of temperance, or which owes the election of its candidates to saloon influence, can ever establish prohibition as a binding fact in government any where. The national democratic party, in its platform, utters no word in condemnation of the greatest foe to tho republic—tho lii;uor traffic. That party having steadfastly, in its utterances at national conventions maintained its allegiance to the American suloon, it was no disappointment to anyone that at St. Louis, in 1888, it reaffirmed its old position on this, the greatest question now being debated among men. •The fir9t concern of good government," said tho recent national republican convention at Chicago, "is tho virtue and sobriety of tho peoplo, and the purity of the home." Revenue, theu. is not government's chief concern, whether coming from internal taxation or from a tariff on importations; and any source of revenue which discounts "the virtue aud sobriety of the people," and begets impurity in the home, should be tho lirst object assailed by every party professing to seek good government. While tho revenue derived from such a source should be t h e first to be foresworn—not alternatively, for the sake of a protective tariff, but positively, for the suke of a protection dearer and more vital -.,than the tariff' can ever yield. I search tho long platform through in vain to tind a condemnation of the saloon, or hint of a purpose to assail it, or any sign of moral consciousness that the saloon is a curse, and its income too unholy for the na- : ion to share. If the "chief concern" has not a place in the party's platform, and a party has no policy as to that "chief concern,'' that par/y doe» not deserve the supiort of men who love good government andi vo to see it maintained. The prohibition party's "chief concern" is for the purity of the home, and the virtue and sobriety of ho people. It asserted this in plain and unmistakable terms at Indianapolis-;, ami it further plainly said that "the bunions of taxation should be removed from clothing and other necessaries of life." It is to-day the only avowed and consistent partywhich the home and labor have, for it would make the blessings of home cheap and remove' altogether its curses. It would bring labor to sobriety and insure employment; it would keep tho factories busy to clothe labor, the farms active to feed it, and would give to our whole industrial system the impetus and prosperity never yet known, and never possible till the saloons are put away. Drooki' t otter. Dr. John A. Brooks in his letter, after aeknowl dging tlie honor conferred upon him, and denouncing monopolies and t rusts, says : We must avoid-anever-increasing surplus in the treasury, and all unnecessary taxation must be lifted from the shoulders of the people. Tho surplus is a perjwtual menace, not only to business, not only t»the country, but to public morals as well. The question of the propriety of removing the tax from whisky must depend altogether upon tho purpose intended, to be accomplished by such removal. The traffic itself, conscious* that it i> its last defense, entrenches itself behind ftileral and state taxation. Strike down its do- £011 so and a"n outraged public would not long suffer its continuance. "Ewo political parties demand in their platforms the abrogation of the federal law. l i u t upon what ground do they base their actions i The prohibition party would strike off the tax that it may the sooner*' destroy the traffic. It would not have the government to bo a co-partner in profits wrung from the vices of the citizens. The purpose of tho republican party in the- repeal of tho tax is to reduce tho rovenues, that they may not havo "to s u r r e n d e r any part of our protective system." A proper protection of American labor and the infant industries of our country may and does commend itself to the majority of our people, but of infinitely more importance is the protection a/ our homes. To this end our platform justly subordinates all other questions. Dr, Brooks concludes by some remarks regarding the sanctity of tha home, refers to the evil influence of saloons, indorses woman suffrage and tho work of women for prohibition, and again thanks the convention for the: honor of t h a nomination. seortstary 01 state, Charles L y G r i f f i n ; auditor of stat*.

During the convention, Gen. Harrison waa present and upon his appearance w£» greeted with enthusiastic applause. After ten minutes the noise subsided and General Harrison addressed the convention. "This enthusiastic and kindly reception," he said, "crowns a long series of friendly acts on the part of my republican friends of Indiana. To have your confidence is very grateful to m e ; to be worthy of your confidence is the highest ambition I can set before me. [Applause.] Whatever may befall me, I feel that my fellow citizens of Indiana have crowned me and made me forever their debtor." He then paid a glowing t r i b u t e t o the memory of Gen. Sheridan, and referring to Blaine's home-coming, spoke of him as "that great republican and that great American," and expressed the hope t h a t "we shall not. be disappointed iu hearing his jMwwful voico iu ludioaa before the cauipaigu is old."

At about 10:130 o'clock on the moral&g of April H, 1JS85, a most startling discovery wua made at the Southern hotel, St. Louis, by a truuk dealer who had beeu called in to open a suspicious looking trunk found in room No. 144. The trunk was the property o? a man who had registered on Mand* 31 as Walter II. Lennox Maxwell, M. D. On openiug the trunk the body of a man was discovered jammed iuto the box in at. distorted positiou, with the head to one side and the knees drawn up as •'•lose as possible. The police were immed'ately notified and.aa investigation mado. At first the body was supposed to be that of Maxwell, but further investigation proved it to be ihat of Maxwell's companion, who had lately joined him and was registered us "C. Arthur Preller,. Loudon, England." Tho corpse was almost nude. Not afeature of the countenance was recognuablo, being so discolored and distorted. J u s t beside the head was pasted a piece of white paper with tho inscription, "So perish all traitors to the great cause." Clothes and other possessions, including an empty chloroform bottle which was identiiied by a druggist as having been bought by Maxwell, pointed to Maxwell as tho awn who had commit led trio crime. Tho day after the discovery of the crime it was well established 1 hat, Max we: 1 had left St. Louis on tho morning of April ti for San Francisco, after carefully circulating the -infornwitittn t h a t fee was going oast.by the Vandalin. A number of passengers on the western train positively identified tho maD on the• wesUMund train as Maxwell. A telegram was immediately sent to San Francisco to the chief of police putting him on his guard, aud a diligent search for tho fugitive wa-> made. Tlii.s developed the fact that tin.* man Lad laWen passage in the City of Sydney, \v\iich for New Zea- Indiana Republicans Place Him at the H e a d of t h e Ticket. The Indiana republican state convention assembled in Indianapolis on the 8th inst. The usual form of organization, appointment of committees, e t c , was gone through with. Tho platform was then road by Chairman Cumbach. It opens by expressing grateful pride in the nomination of Gen. Harrison at Chicago, and pledges to tho nominees of the national convention united and successful support. On national questions the national platform is indorsed. The platform then goes into state affairs at great length. Crimes against the ballot box are denounced; tho gerrymander of, the state, it declares, must be repudiated, and tho action of tho democrats in the last general assembly is denounced as revolutionary and criminal; tho alleged election of a United States senator was accomplished by fraud and force. All kinds of legislation for the benefit of labor is favored!, and on the temperanco question the principle of local option is considered tho proper thing. Liberal pensions are favored and tho democrats in congress are denounced for defeating tho tax-refunding bill. Tho platform was unanimously adopted, as was also a resolution welcoming James G. Blaine on his arrival. Tho work of nominating a state ticket was at dupe commoneed, and resulted in tho choice of A. P. Hovey of Evansvillo for fovernor. For lieutenant-governor Uev. ra Chase, "tho fighting parson," was nominated by acclamation. The balance o4* the ticket was mado up in this order: Judges of the Supreme Court, Judge Silas Coffey/ Judge J. G. Berkshire. Judge Walter Olds; land on SuudayMXv I'Jth n/ August. Kx tradition papers were secured fro.n Secretary of State Ba.Viir I. and Consul Gamble at Auckland, New Zealand, wa-. cabled to secure Maxvwpll's arrest on hi,-, arrival at that place. Officers went out on a tender to the steamer ."•vdney, attended by the consul, and aroused Maxwell h u m a deep bleep to place lum under arre-ii. Kven on awakening ae preserved the assumed French accent: which he had adopted on th(> train from St. Louis. With the mondy taken from Prclle-r lie obtained couuael to resist extradition,-but was tiiullv turned over to the detectives. On the | Tib ot August he arrived in St. Louis. His trial was begun on the Ulthof Hie following May. and a verdict of guilty rendered on the nth of June, l*S<i. An appeal wns taken to the state supremo- court, where the ca^e was affirmed, though the employ men! of a detective to obtain- a confession l'n.iii Maxwell was BOFcrolyeensnrod. The ca*e was then taken to tho Cuited Stales supreme court, and there alau tho efforts to obtain a new trial failed. The state supreme court, appointed July IU, lsss, for the execution of Maxwell. A further respite until August 10th inst.., was secured, however, and meantime a request for f urtiior postponement of the hinging was obtained from Lord Salisbury, the English premier, but after 1,earing the ease, Gov Morehouse decided that 1 ho law must take its course. Maxwell's father came to St, Louis from Hyde te,' see him, and at once began to work to- save his sou's life, bringing forward all. his masonic intioence aud all of his financial resources, n r n i n g himself and his family, in fact, to secure for his son oil the assistance tho law would give him.

A FAMIT7YAEFAIR. B Y H I G H C O N W A Y . the its dotlie C H A P T E R XV, A D l S l ' l ' T K I ) C L A I M . During the last three months of year Ha lewood House did not b die reputation for (aim regularity of Its mestie concerns and immunity from many petty ills and aunovances which a'trict le-s methodically conducted establishments, ^o far as could be seen all promised well for a quiet, placid and uneventful winter. Horace and Herbert employed themselves as was their wont. They were men who could spread out a little occupation over a large slice of time, so ne er fount the hours ' drag wean'y. Beatrice seemed fairly happy with her bright-haired boy. The littl • fellow was now beginning to prattle rn IT ly. and his maim r toward the Talnert's was more audacious and familiar than ever. Altogether it looked as if nothing would occur to disturb the even tenor of life at 11 a/, iewood House, until the budding 'hedges once more brought lnunddhe usual spring cleaning. But, all undreamedof by the brothers, storms were b ewtng which were to shake their house to the foundation. Christmas < ame. ow. Christmas day \sas a day on which the Tnlbcr;s made great saoiitiees for the good o. taeir fellow creat ires. .V Ivan us .Mor lie who believed t l ^ t t h o s e in poverty were as much entitled to creature comforts as to spiritual consolations, always > t> 111 the hat round at Christma , and col ected a special fund for the purpose of giving all his \o:y poor people a hearty dinne.-. At this dinner the Talberts weie his henchmen. No one who knew their taMidious tastes could have; seen them carvin; huge joints of sanguinary- looking beef or serving out sticky segment of plum pudding without feeling sure that, at heart they were thorough!.• good fellOAS Herbert did once plaintively ask Mordle if the meat need be (juite s» rod. The c irate chuckled. "if it wasn't r.-il, they'd sa,'- 'twas American, and 'ea e it,'' iw, answere b It is to he feared that experience had taught Mordle that charity is often looked upon as a right to be demanded, not a bounty for wfiuTh to be thankful. It was no doubt the terrible sights of the forenoon which made the Talberts rigidly taboo so far as their own table was concerned, allco iveutional Christmas fare. 'As Horace g n u e l y said, there is to educate t minds something savoring of vulgarity in su posing that the celebration of u certain holiday must be attended by the consumption of a certain class of co cest'.bles. So their dinner consisted of clear so.rp, lish, a brace of birds and an omelet. •'We never thought of Beatrice." said Herbert, penitently. "Beatrice might have liked oast beef and plum p u d d i n g . " , But Miss < lauson did not yearn for Christmas diet. Moreover, her thoughts vere far away from eating and drinkin :. Indeed, during the last three mouths th > 'girl had been, even for her, s; ran rely quiet and thoughtful. As for a lilt e While longer we must be eontented to regard her from the outside only, her musings cannot be divulged. To-day, no -doubt, she was thinking a great il.a! about an impending visit to her father's house. Horace and Herbert I ad urged it earnestly. Not, as they kindly and truthfully ' told her, that they wished to lose her even for a dav, But it was well that the world should th nk that the Clauson* were a united family. It is curious what a simpleton most people think the world, and how easily they fancy it can be taken In. Beatrice consented to be guided by her uncle's advice. So on the day after Christmas she left Oakbury. Sir Maln- ?ay and his family were wintering in London. I t is surprising the n u m b e r of respectable people who do winter In Lonion. I Sir Maingay met her at Paddlngton. The baronet looked a Httle ro indei and a little ii ore commonplace than when last she aaw him. He greeted his daught r ailectlonately, but told her she looked ill and careworn. Then he Inquired for Horace and HerbejJ. As from the very first day they had kept Sir Maingay in his proper place, lie looked upon the n with the greatest (respect "Is it true they have adopted a child?" he asked. Some garbled version of the affair had reache 1 him. "A'o,' said Beatrice. "1 h a v e . " ' Y o u , my dear Adopt a child! Why. it Is time you tho. ght of the possibility of having c Udren of your own, I have for months been hoping to hear you were engaged to be married.'' , 4 i shall never m a r r y , " said Beatrice rather coldly. "Depend upon it, it is the best s t a t e , " said Sir Maingay, eagerly. Then he started oil ou the subject of the precocity which Beatrice's little half-brothers display ed. How the elder said this yesterday and the younger did that the day befo e—a record of Individual but not general Interest. But just before they reached his house Sir Maingay made a more notable remark. " i made the aequaintanc • this week of a young relative of your poor mother's—a Mr. Carruthers, who was staying with >ou some time ago. i told him you were c o n ng up and he promised to c a l l . " It was growing dusk, so that the flush that leaped to Miss Clauson's cheek was unseen. She was silent for half a minute then she said, quietly, "1 shall be very glad to see Mr. Carruthers.!' JLady Clauson was gracious and condescending, She had gained some sort of success in town last season, so could afford to be so. Nevertheless, Beatrice was in various ways shown that she was a stranger within her father's gates. T h e little boys were brought down to see her dressed in their company clothes and manners. They were good, ordinary, uninteresting little fellows, and no doubt Miss Clauson contrasted them with a little golden-haired pet o. hers at oakbury. Although the ladies were civil to each other they did not sympathize. Like many others, I.ady Clauson was utterly unable to understand Beatrice. "Never, if \ o u can help it, marry a widower," she said to a bosom friend. "No one can tell the anxiety a first wife's child is—no one who has not experienced I f " I t must b e , " said the friend with great feeliiv-'. 4'If she did not always dress so carefully," continued Lady Clauson, sorrowfully, ' 1 should believe she had made up her mind to be an old maid, and might then do someihingTor the boys. She has more money than any young girl should h a v e . " Carruthers called and told Beatrice he had received a letter from Horace, begg ng him to spend a few days at Oakbury before the Lent term be an. "It is a great complim • t , " 1 e -aid. " Y e s , " answered Beatrice, "very great. Are \ou goin ,r. ' "That is for you to decide, not m e " Beatrice dropped her eyes and was silent. 11« wa ted. " .

" I'I u have every right. We do not allude to the past, but we do not forget it. Look ui> and answer me. Miall i g > to Ha^ cwood'."' trang • 'o say, he spo\e in a c. umn.inding way, such as lie had ne\er before displayed w en addres-mg er. 1'erhaps she .iked him none he I-ss for it. With an effort she raised her e,> s to his. "It is most unwise,'' she whispered. "> nwise you nican for me, of course," j he said (piicKlv. " t h a t part is for me to decide, not for you " j She held out her tiand impulsively. " W e ! can be riemls Krank," --he said. •'Always,' answered Carruthers. "And now we nia , as w ell decid • t > g > down together.'' I'> this she made no ob e tion, and Krank s 1 »ve-making ended for the time, llis drea i s tiiat night mav have been p tasant ones, but as tor Beatrice she sat for hours in her n o,n gazing in o the Pre sviih a paine , hopeless loo . on her face. The ittle line which F r a n , had on • • noticed b tween her brows seemed to have gr wn (i epe,' and more distinct. If Carruthers i.ad hoped for a great deal from that jour e. to i la ktown he was doomed to be <iisappo nted. :•'. vents occurred at Hazlewood House which took Beatrice I ack in hot haste and a'one. one morning Horace and Herbert were in earnest dUcussi n respecting a hipbath, the paint of which snowed si .MIS of wear. The ;uestiou was whether it should be sent to th> auctioneer's and sold for the best j rice, or should b.'re-japanned. Herbert, who was given to e ipony.ing, favored the reparation. II race, who was more thorough in his ideas, thought it should go at once to the sale-room. The matter w a s s o impor ant and Interesting that neither of the brothers heard the sound of carriage wheels outside the house. The wheels were those belonging to a gig. a genuine unmistakable uig. Whitta- .,er, who saw it come up the drive and stop at the fiont, noi the side door, was much disgusted. He did not know the trail tional respectability en;oyed b the dri.-i-r of a g'u. He drew the line at dogcarts. Syl a n u s ' s tricycle was only borne with because it carried a clergyman. The gig In question was driven by a man who dismounted and Helped to the ground a woman with a g.tod-tempered looking shiny face, and who was dressed in refreshingly bright colors. One of them rang tho bell timidly, and after a befitting Interval the dignified Whittaker condescended to open the door. The man asked 4f the Messrv. Talbert were in. This collective style jarred upon Whittaker who had been In the family long enough to remember the time when 'Messrs. Talbert kv Co." was a well-known form of address. He replied that Mr. Talbert and Mr. Herbert were In, but at present engaged. " W e will wait until they can see u s , " said tho man. So Whittaker let them come into the house. They wiped their feet on entering so carefully an I thoroughly that all doubts as to their being persons of any Importance were at once set at rest, Whittaker felt lie was''qulto right in offering tiiein chairs' in the hall. Th*y w e w too respectable to be left standing, but the g g and the eet rubbing i omb ne I showed they were not to be ushered into the drawing ro tut. ' W h a t name sh II 1 say ' ' he asked. ' W e are s t r a n g e r s , " said the man. "You can say we have called on private and confidential business." •• ou had better give me your name,'' said Whit aker. ' M r . and Mrs. Bawllngs, ' answered the woman. o VVh ttaker went up stairs fo ind \\U masters, and told them that a Mr. and Mrs. Haw lng wanted to see them on pr vate and confidential bus ness. "Kawllugs, " said Herbert with a shudder. " W e know no one wit i such an awful name. Who are they, Whittaker " " I have n o Id.'a, air," said Whittaker. As his maste^axljudged the name horr - ble he felt half offended at it being supposed t h a ' he knew any one named Kawlings. "Where are they?" asked Horace. " i n the hall, sir." Whittaker felt thankfu that he had not been tempted to give them sit ing room honors.

The brothers wondere I mightily what these people could want with them. "You wish to speak to u s ? " said Horace, suavely.

' W e should like to see you hi private," said the woman, glancing around the hall. So Herbert opened the drawing-room door, an i they all walked inside.

And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and lha boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and yc shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days. 41.

GOLDKN T B I T . -The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacle of the righteous. -- Psaliu 1 is :1M. The time, same as last lesson, correspond ing to our October, and the place the valley at the foot of Sinai. Israel was encamped in this locality for many months; it was necessary schooling. Three great feasts were instituted which it was incumbent upon every male to observe : The Feast of the Passover, to memorialize deliverance from E g y p t ; the Feast of Pentecost fifty, days later, at the close of gathering the. first fruits; the Feast of Tabernacles in October, corresponding to our Thanksgiving,- While there were three great feasts, there was but one national fast. The Lord would not have his people downcast and mournful, he would have them enjoy the beauties of nature and the pleasures of companionship. In groups these feasts w e r e : First, the Passover, embracing also that of Unleavened Bread; second, the Feast of F i r s t F r u i t s and Pentecost, fifty days later; third, the Feast of Trumpets. Day of Atonement and Feas»t of Tabernacles: two in the spring, two in the summer, two in the fall; other feasts were added after settlement in Palestine. Passover. Pentecost and Tabernacles were culled pilgrimage festivals, as it was imperative that the head of every house attend, however great the distance. There were at, this date other lesser festivals instituted; the weekly Sabbath, the feast of the New Moon, the Sabbath year and the Year oi Jubilee. Tho first great festival was before the grain harvest, the second just preceding vintage, the third when all the products of the year had been gathered. The observance of the feast of Tabernacles is referred to in Nehemiah, u thousand or more years after its inauguration: "And all ihn congregation of them that were come again out of the captivity made booths.. . .and there was very great gladness: also day by day from the first day unto the last day. he read in the<bookof the law of God. And they kept the feast seven days and en the fightli day was flic solemn assembly according unto the manner." (S : 17.18). The a)K>stle John <T:'J) describes the words and works of .lesusupon thcoeeasion of its celebration in the year A. D. 'A'2, Bouie l,.i00 year* aft'T the date of our lesson. The first month of the civil year was introduced with the Feast of Trumpets; on the tenth oe.-urred the penitential fast (day " E a c h of the bollocks off e r e * In tacrifloo were aceeiap«Aied by a b u n d a n t oblations and d r i a k offerings. Ttoe feast w a s t h u s observed, because of the pre-eminent titness of dedicating net only t h e person but t n e property increased by the harvest season. The last day of the feast was appropriately called the great day of the feast, it was t h e closing of the annus) cycle of festivals; they were to do no servile work. There is a v a s t difference between servile work, which is the result of Bin, and works of love and affectionate interest. The toil which was made necessary to uubsisteucc was to be suspended and the industry of loving worship substituted. There will be no idleness in heaven but the occupation will not be servile. V. 37. These are the feasts. T h a t is, those described In the foregoing chapters constitute the occasions of special prominence in addition to the weekly Sabbath observances, which were in no way set aside by these more elaborate festivals. Neither were these special occasions to interfere with the voluntary gifts which each individual brought privately, or iu accordance with vows. Verses 3U-40 begin a recapitulation in ' which is woven added specifications. The Revised Version translates " a Sabbath" a "solemn rest"---the word signifying a less or little Sabbath, the prohibition in regard to work being a relaxation from ordinary avocations, but not the careful restriction commanded on the regular seventh or holy day. The word "boughs" also is translated "f ruitB" in the new version. Hence it appears t h a t the worshipper took fruits in the left hand and branches in the right, rejoicing in the presence of the Lord. On the last day of tfio festival, as it was observed in Jerusalem at the time of Christ, "four huge caudelebra were lighted in the center of the temple court and the illumination emanating from these w a s visible all over the city. Around these lights pious men marched with lighted flambeaux in their hands, aingiug hymns and psalms of praise, while the Levitos, stationed on the fifteen steps which led to the court of the women, accompanied them with instrumental music." " I t was doubfciess on the last evening of this brilliant festival, that Christ called attention to his mission woik iu the words 'I am the light of the world.' Not to shine for a few hours and illuminate the temple and Jerusalem only—but tho light which will dinpel the darkness of the wbole world.''—Ginsbury. Early in the morning of the last day, tho people, headed by a priest, marched to the fountain of Siloam. and drawing water, returned in time to be present at the burning of the sacrifice. Immediately. Psalms 113- 11$ (the great Hallel) were chanted responsively, the Levites intoning the first line. and the people repeating it. while to each of the other lines they res[K>nded also ''Praise ye the L o r d " { Hallelu Yah). At the close they waved the branches before the altar, as expressive of joy and remembrance of God's promises.—JEdersheim. These creat occasions incited to patriotism and love of country. They also tended o awaken in the people emulation in gifts of • r a r e products, es proofs-of skill and in- - dustry. The change of scene was conducive to health and restoration of elasticity of spirit. The young looked forward with pleasure t o the pilgrimage over mountains and through valleys, as the occasion always presented opportunities for enlargement of experience and knowledge. The aged looked back upon many sweet memories and happy incidents connected with these anntiril journey ing.'*.- Americans need more holy days and holy pilgrimages filled with rural pleasures and sacred songs. isfOOKSTKl) T l t l H C H T S . Expression of thankfulness strengthens the emotion. Religion was not intended to make our pleasures less but to dissipate gloom and promote peaceful joy. A worshipful spirit should pervade all our joys and intensify ouv pleasures. An immense deal of time was iriven to re ligious feasts, or worship, under the Jewish dispensation. "He who says he hasn't time for ehristiau service ought to remembor that he has time for nothing else, but by the grace of (dod." Thanksgiving day is not a modern instit u t i o n , but was instituted, as we see. l."0<> yipiirs before Christ. Let such days and the worshipful spirit t>e multiplied.

V. ;W. The fifteenth day of the seventh month. Jewish months were lunar and alternated "20 and ;(0 days each. There being by this reckoning an annual loss of eleven days, to make the number correspond with the nctual length of the year, every third year an extra month was inealated, as we insert the 29th day of February every fourth year. The sacred year began with Nisan (or the new moon of our April) —the date of Israel's departure from Egypt. This celebration was to keep fresh in mind dining the ages their sojourn in temporary habitations during their long pilgrimage. In later years, therefore, those who lived in the best houses, like those who lived in huts, during the seven days' festival, lived in leafcovored bowers--or booths. -These-were built on house-tops, in the streets and on tho mountain side. The thick shady trees of the country were also emblematic; the palm of victory; the willow of thrift; and the olive of peace. Again and again are repeated the words "this is the law" and these shall ye observe "when ye come into the land of Canaan." The promised, land was far away, law was given in advance. The great principles of righteousness are from eternity, the application varying from youth to old age, adapting itself to changing conditions and experiences. This method caused Canaan to be continually mentioned, stirring the soul to nobler aspirations and more loyal service. V. 3">-.%. On the first day shall be a holy convocation.

The first day of this festival did not always occur on the Sabbath, but it was to bo observed as a Sabbat x upon whatever day it did occur. The intervening days wero spent in sacrificing and feasting. While the sacrifices were offered, the Lovites chanted the festal psalms, tho same as at Passover and Pentocost. The b u r n t offerings of this feast were by far more numerons than those ot any other festival. There were offered on each day two rams, 14 lambs, and a kid for a sin offering. B u t what was most peculiar was, the arrangement of the sacrifices of bullocks, in all amounting to TO.

It is said that, the American Thanksgiving was suggested by a New England farmer. The Puritans, discouraged and anxious, proposed another day of public fasting and prayer, when a farmer arose and said, ^Instead of fast in:.' and praying for more blessings, let us hold a thanksgiving for mercies already received." The thought was a happy one, and never since has a year passed that the descendants of those pioneers have not observed the day. Houses, like clothing, arc reminders of sin.
