What Is the Matter !


Another case of clerical derecton has Just
come to light in this quarter, which is making no
little stir private circles wolf in sleeps cloth
ing, the pastor of numerous congregation in
this city, has been suspended from the exercise of
his clerical functions until he can make certain ex-
plantations concerning an affair in which he is
charged with having been concerned, not long
since, in Tennessee.
1t would seem that the reverend gentleman, few
months ago, gained considerable celebrity IN the
neighborhood of Smithand, where he was then
stationed, by his in turning souls into the
strait ht PATH and enjoyed the reputation of having
set on foot one of the most thorough REVEALS thai
the country had been blessed with for a number OF
years. In the height Of his celebrity, however, he
received A" a ca TO come TO this city, and pre-
side over one Of our churches, and with much ap-
parent reluctance, he obeyed.

confirmed by some expressions the LADY, made
of in her sleep, in which the dear, dear minis

accused his wife Of infidelity. She denied the
charge but admitted that the minister had attempt

urged as an excuse, an lnfatuaton which she found

showed her husband letter from her absent friend

EXPLOSION OF POWDER MTLL.-We learn from
Mr.. Lyman Warmer, of the Union House, that a
powder mill in Barre blew up, about three o'clock,
on Monday afternoon, killing young man, aged
some ten rods from the building, and every parti-
Gle of clothing, except bit of of his stockings,
stripped from his body, which was blackened like
coal. Lightning is supposed to have caused the
explosion, as severe storm prevailed at the time,

powder mill just previous to the explosion

The FRENCH TRANSATLANTIC STEAMERS
Courier .dm Hapre of the I'd Of May, contains a
very interesting document on these steamers, the
first OF which arrived in our harbor about one year
ago, and which by unforeseen circumstances, bad
management, and other fatal causes, have been
obliged to stop their trips from Havre to New York.
We .publish she'd some time ago, the decree of the
French provisional government, by which the four
steam frlgates Union, Philadelphia, Missouri, and
New YORK, had been taken back by the Minister
of Marine, and restored into the cadrcs of the
French navy. We give below the article pub
llshed on that subject by the Courier du H1pre -
Gone OF the most dlctatorlal acts of the provi-
slonal government, is undoubtedly the decree of
the Minister of the Navy, which has taken out Of
the hands OF the company Herout, the four steam
irlgates which the STATE had given into their hands,
on condition that the company would employ them
IN the service OF postal correspondence between
Havre and New York. Yesterday the last of
these steamers left our docks, which had been
built at great expense to receive them year
ago:
The company made treaty with the Minister OF
Finance therefore they cannot recognise any other
decree but that made by that department. There
has not been received from the Minister of
Finance the least advice the subject the
MoniteW itself has not published the measure
taken by the citizen Arago, who was but the pro
tenn. minister of a provisional government this
decree has been only unveiled by the indiscretion
OF a newspaper.
We understand that the company Herout
has protested against this spoaton-for il is one.
The attorney employed TO prosecute the claims of
the company before the Conseu dEtat has writ
ten the following letter to the Minister of FL
nance
M. the Minister of Marine by decree of the
provisional government of the 18th OF April, 1913,
has taken the steamers employed for the service Of
the post Office between Havre and New York.
These steamers were surrendered to the compa-
ny of the trans Atlantic steamships by an arrange
ment made with the State and sanctioned by a law
dated the 18th of April, lS47, and accordingly, by
the grant of ten years, the company. had engaged
in an enterprise, the expense of which amounted
to about two millions Of francs.
Forced by exigencies which are not to be exam
ined by the company, the provisional government

The Prison Discipline Convention met yesterday

ment of Mathew l.. Bevan, as President. This
morning, exciting discussion disturbed the har.
mony Of the body, occasioned by portion of re-
port of the committee appointed at the session, held
last year in your CITY, to consider the subject of the
Pardoning power. The paper alluded TO, prepared
by DR.. Leber, contains an assertion that the chief
executive of an important State in the Union, and
one foremost In prison discipline reform, had been
charged with taking brides for pardons, granted
by him in his official capacity. This being well
understood to apply to Pennsylvania and her for
mer governor, motion was made to expunge the
sion that ensued was warm, the city delegates es-
pousing the motion to expunge and Messrs Foulk
Nc, defending DR.. Liebcr. The report was finally
laid upon the table.

sentenced to long Imprisonment, for keeping a
gambling house in the shape of billiard saloon,

THE LATE SroRM-Considerable damage was
done by the late storm and the attendant lightning
In Newark the store of l.. l.. Belant was struck,
and the exterior somewhat injured The light
ming struck several buildings in Jersey City, and
the magnet at the Philadelphia telegraph station
was burst into atoms by the violence of the
charge. The telegraph connection with Philadel-
phia was entirely cut off. At Hoboken cabinet
makers shop was struck and consumed, with seve-
raj small adjoining buildings. Two New York fire
companies came to the rescue and did good service.
At Philadelphia, some serious accidents occurred,
attended with less of life. The Inquirer gives the
School and Lydia streets, Kensngton, was struck
early in the storm, and that lady killed in a mo-
ment. A young man residing near was thrown at
the same time from a garden into his room by
shock, and the building was slightly shattered
The clothes of Mrs. Woods were set in flames bv
the lightning At Mount Holly, N. j., Mrs Ann
Eliza Archer, lady of amiable and estimable
character, was killed by the electric fluid, at
the residence of her husband The top of a
house in Cherry street, Kensngton, was partly
forced off; and portion of the roof and brick
adjoining Mr.. Kennard's church, were thrown
into the interior of the building At CAROLS hotel,
Kensington, the flag staff was shvcrcd into splin-
ters and several houses in the northern part of the
city were slightly damaged. The deluge of rain
soon filled many cellars in low situations and a
considerable amount of groceries and other goods
have been injured. Some of the cellars in Fifth,
Parish, Poplar, and Culvcrt Streets have five feet
depth of water, and we believe that similar over
flowing occurred in some parts of Southwark. A
sloop was sunk in the Delaware, near Camden, and
we fear that the mails OF tonight and tomorrow
will bring US further accounts Of disasters in
