"Movs Rcd Taps onS Tsih&''--0ns Oi the editors of the HarsOrd Times (Jonss) has commenced suit against the publisher of the PatFiOtand Democrat for LIBEL, laying the damagesas esooO! We gather from the Patriot that tho charges of which the Times com plains are that the editor "catspaw, that he "has been charged with a felony" and that on certain occasion he was told to fire away, drunk or sober' It is singular indeed that an editor whose constant course has been to endeavor to backen the name of men better than himself should resort tosuch method to "put money in his purse.'

 THE friends of this cause arc hefebR nOti- 1 fled, that tho 18th anniversary of the Litchfeld County auxiliary will De holdenat Litchfeld, on Wednesday the 1894 gf OcfDbsF neat. Other exercises connected with this anniversary will beas follows Prayer meet ing on Tuesday of same week, at 10 A. M.: Tract Society P. ,M.; Education Society," F M.; Home Mission Society Wednesday 10 A. M.
 It is believed that the claims of the Foreign Mission cause were never more urgent and lmperlous than now; and that it's friends were never called to self-denying effort under cir- ] cumstances of greater responsibiIitv than now While till recently the cause was bles- sed with unwonted prosperity, the sudden and unparalleled distress which has fallen upon our country, affecting more especially its commercial interests, has of necessity dri. ed up many of the former and most efficient resources of the Society, retarded it's opera tions, and subjected it to degree of embar. rassment unknown before. In these trying circumstances, the Board look especially for aid to their friends intheagricultural districts of the community. s>
 Brethren in LitchfeM County! they look to us. And they say to us, by their Secretary. "wi!l not our CldeSt and most efficient auxilia- ry come forth at this time in the strength of |self-denying faith, and love, and set an ex- ample worthy of itselG and suited to the exi- gencies of the cause?'' And may Iadd, will not those whose business it is see that the claims of this cause are duly and seasonably presented to each congregation in the coun- ty? Will not the collecting agents be on the alert in season, in the faithful fuiflment of the highly responsible duties of their office All must see that unless timely and efficient aid is afforded in this trying emergency, much that has been done, soig be undone, and will need to be done over again at an expense ini- mensely increased, before "Jesus can have the heather for his inheritance. or the know ledge of the Lord can cover the earth as the waters do the seas."
