A SHOWER OF RUM.-We are in.
formed that on the day of the late
township election in Newcastle, a
Crabtree landlord of that place being
on his way from MI. Vernon with a
barrel of ardent" was met near the
county line by two men and one wo-
man, dressed in disguise-that the wo-
man was assisted into the wagon con-
tanning the "critter," an axe handed
her, anG that she did then and there,
without form or ceremony, proceed to
behead the hydra.headed monster,
dealing him several heavy blows upon
the head, and causing the cIarst to
run profusely; so profusely indeed,
that the barrel soon became relieved
of its contents, much to the dismay
and chagrin of said Crabtree.

Bro. Windam, from the Commit
tee on Appeals, presented the follow.
ing report, which was adopted.
REPORT.
The Committee on Appeals having
examined the transcript in the case of
the appeal of Brother Philson, from
the decision of Adams Division, No.
486, would respectfully report, that
it appears from the papers in the case,
that on the 1lth of Sept. 1859, Bro.
Elliott, from the Visiting Committee,
reported in substance, that "Bro. Sc
bastian Labin has been walking about
during the past week, but had done
no work, and that it is the opinion of
the Committee, that he is not enti-
tied to benefits for the last week."
Bro. Ackley moved, that one weeks
benefits be granted to him, which
motion was adopted, and an order
drawn for three dollars.
Brother Philson gave notice of an
appeal to the Grand Division, on the
ground that there was no evidence be-
fore the Division that Bro. Labin was
unable to work.
Therefore, from the facts and cir
cumstances before US, your Committee
are OF the opinion, that the appeal is
well taken, and ought to be sustained,
for the reason that, there is no evi.
dence before us that the Bro. was
unable to labor, and we cannot con-
celye of any rule or bylaw of an
Order, that would entitle the brother
to receive benefits under the circum-
stances.
They would, therefore, recommend
that the decision of the Division be re-.
versed, upon the ground of illeoaIitv

DEAR BROTHER HALL:-lt may be gratifying
to some of The patrons of the Star, TO learn that
there is in progress glorious revival of religion in
Brimfeld. On the evening of the I'd inst, [ COM
menced a protracted meeting with the brethren
of tho Baptist Chuch and remained with them up
to this day. The brethren of the Methodist and
Congregaiionast churches, united with us, and
it was soon said, !" Behold how good, and how
pleasant it is, for brethren to dwell together in
unity The sanctuary was crowded from day to
day, and an awful solemnity preyaded the entire
congregation; while mnny cried aloud, "what must
do to be saved" When left them, there was
no abatement in the interest," and trust soon to
hear that many are rejoicing in the pardon
ing mercy Of God.
When last counted up, there were about 80
converts, and nearly half as many reclaimed from
their wanderings. There nre many true friends
of the oppressed in this place, connected with the
different churches; nor were The poor, the widow,
and the orphan, unremembered. Indeed irhereper

sinners, there will be remembrace Of the poor,
and oppressed, with HEARTFELT beneyolenee. Yet,
