Allow me respectfully to inquire into the proprety,
rather the justice Of locking the doors OF the pews in the
Tabernacle evenings Of public lectures. Las, evening"
the occasion OF the lecture given by the New Ly
ceum, compelled to climb the door Of pew in
order get seat. The Lyceum pay for the of the
ROOM and see good reason why they should have
the of the rrhoe In fact few doors belscked
all may with equal prope.y be locked, and the audience
be thereby deprived of privilege for which they render
proper value. By giving hint this subject You will
perhaps check an evil in the bud, and much obllge.

CASE OF john C. CoLT.-We understand that
the application of the counsel of John c. Colt TO
the Supreme Court for Writ of Error, TO carry
up the case 70 the Court of Errors for argument,
with view to the osrainment Of new trial, was
unanimously denied by the Judges. Application
was then made by the counsel OF accused to chan
cellor Walworth, who also refused to allow the
Writ. Colt, therefore, remains in prison, subject
to the penalty of the law and the judgement OF the
Court sentencing him to be executed on the 18th
instant, from which only respite or Communication
Of punishment BY the Governor can save him.

gust there was dreadful FIRE in the town OF
Troitzk, in the government Of Orenburgh. The
fire was caused by the lopg-contnued drought and
the great heat, during which dry west wind blew
without interruption. The Barracks, the Custom
House, the School, the Prison, and 246 private
houses, were destroyed The principal Greek
Church and two Mahomedan Mosques were much
injured. The high wind, which filled the air with
clouds of sand made it impossible to save any ef-

George EichelI:;

We have been SO busily occupied in commencing
the Whig Cause that we have not hitherto found
time to speak of our Candidates. We can but par
italy atone for our neglect at present.
Who is GEORGE EICHELL? He is an hon.
est, deserving and capable citizen Of the Tenth
Ward-a Sailmaker by trade, widely known and
eminently popular among his brother Mechanics.
In politics. he has ever been an ardent intelligent
answering DEMOCRATIC WHIe, and as such has
often been called to lead the forlorn hope in his
Ward as acandidate for Alderman or Assistant. He
had no hope Of an Election, but the cause needed
him, and he has ever stood ready to battle for ii
and share its fortunes in any capacity. Night and
day he has given it bis best exertion. through year.
Of almost hopeless effort-he has given to it the
hours required for sleep the energies and the
needed to secure competence for his family. H,
has counted nothing sacrifice which could in any
way promote the Good Cause. And now can it BIT
that three or four thousand Wings, whose ghtesl
efforts might secure to this ardent and faithful vel
eran station which will project him against wait

men venture to look their honest and faithful breh
rem in the facet Reader do you know any sor
of Wing who hesitates whether to vote or neg
lect it on Tuesday If you do, ask him to think
of GEORGE EIcHELL.
MIR. EIcHELL's opponent is J. Sherman Broso-
nell, who, after having for many years kept
largely frequented and patronized grog-shop, i'll
which he either did make or might have made
fortune, begged his party and friends to give him
this Office just for one tern-promising them
and over most solemnly that he would not ask for
it agGin. "One year for the party and two fu
mysef-l dc not wish to keep it longer" was his
unfortunate assurance. Well: he got the Office.
and has enjoyed it for three years; and here he is
begging for three more, as ravenous as John Tyler
or any other shark He has MT made much out
of it, is the plea. Let him say how much his re-
ceipts have been, and then we can tell better
whether he deserves another term. If he had no.
spent hundreds in treating at Tammany and the
Pewter Mug in order to secure denomination, his
net profits would have been considerably grsater

Miscellaneous,

MIR Miller, the end of the world prophet it is said,
is putting up solid brick wall around his farm,
Whitehall, which will probably endure for thousand
years. Miller, we see it stated, was born in Fits
field, Massachusetts, in 1871, consequently he is
now sixty years of age. He spent the early part
Of his life as farmer. Thirty years ago he enter
ed the United States Army, and was then wild
character; and deis; bul then, he said in
of his sermons, 1t was always matter of astonish
ment to him that the Almighty had not made
ation of some kind to the people of the earth. Du-
ring the last war, he was captain in the United
States army, and took part in two battles on
the frontier. After the peace he settled down at
Low Hampton in the State of New York, about
miles from Whitehall, where he bought farm which
he owns TO this day, but which is managed by his
wife and sons he having taken part in his worldly
aflars for the last eleven years, during which time
he has been preaching his peculiar DOCTRINES al
though they have only attracted particular attention
as the time draws nigh, is43. After he left the Ar
NV he filed the office Of sheriff of the county. About
thirty years ago, he set about searching the scriptures
with view to refute them, and this gave him his
extensive knowledge of the prophecies. In 1916 he
was converted, and ever since then has been close
student of the prophecies and Of history In 1922,
he says he became fully convinced that the world
would come to an end in 1913; and about six or
seven years afterwards he began to preach and write
about it. and has continued 10 90 so till this day; he
has written great number Of works on his peculiar
views
THE M1LLERITEs. We find in N. Y. Journal
of Commerce, the following sensible and phiosophi-
cal advice to the believers in Mr. Miller's doctrnes
ssWe advise all persons who adopt the views OF
Elder Miller to keep with their business just as If
the world was not coming 10 an end in April
They will, in this way, more completely fulfill proph-
ecy which Declares that when the end comes, It will
find the inhabitants Of the world about their ordinary
occupations There is, besides. no object in giving up
business ;propery can be placed no where more safely
than where it Isl and the time is Short it would be
pity to spend it all, any large portion OF it, in
making worldly arrangements. Besides, it is possible
that Elder Miller may have made some mistake In
figures and if only one figure is wrong in the place Oh
| hundreds, the error would be in centuries, which
would throw the event beyond the cognzance OF this
generation Let what will be the result, therefore,
the best way is for every man to mind his own pnsi
ness" ......- r.-... ..5 g. -,
