Capital Sermon.

A writerin the Sierra (Cal) Citizen, under the
title Of young NJ en- and Tree Frogs" gives
better sermon, be tier lecture on morality, and
better essay on me, 1tal philosophy, all in few
lines, than are sonnet ines found in as many vol
umes of standard autl lors:
"The tree frog Acquires the color of whatever
it adheres to for short time; if 1t is found on
the oak, it will bear the color of that tree; If on
the sycamore, or cypress, it will be whitish
brown; and when it is found on the growing
corn, it is sure to be green. Just so 1t is with
young men; their companions tell US what their
character is if they associate with the vulgar
the licentious and the pTofame then their hearts
are already stained with their guilt and shame,
and they will themselves become like vicious
The study of bad books, or the love of wicked
companions, is the broa dest and most certain
road to ruin that young men can travel, and
few well directed lessons in either viii lead
them on step by step to the gate OF destruction.
Our moral and physical laws show how import
tant it is to have proper as sociations OF every
kind, especially in youth. How dangerous 1t Is to
gaze on a picture or scene that pollutes the
imagination or blunts the moral pefceptns, or
has tendency to weaken sense of our duty
to God and man."

Trad Kelly, Independent, received SO votes; and
in the Goth District, B W Richmond, independ-

The return of "a Committee of Examination
from Washington, has revealed the mode and
means by which Collector Coghlin's official
head was displaced. We have it from good
authority, that an application was presented to
the President from fourteen " National Demo-
Gratis of Toledo" setting forth that Mr.. Coghlin
obtained his appointment through General
Steedman, Douglas man and a traitor to the
Administration that his, Coghlins, remaining
IN the place was source of notification and
embarrassment to them (the said - National
Democrats of Toledo, " and that the good of
the Democracy here demanded his removal. &c.
The manifesto is said also to inform the Presi-
dent of the United States of the alarming fact
that the peace and dignity of the nation was
threatened by the retention of brother and
broth in-law of said Steedman in the service
of the Government as Route AgeRts This pa
per and its averments are said to bear the en-
dorsement of the United States Marshal for the

The Most Imuudrn, MoD n Amer;c,

j. W. Gray, of the Cleveland Plain Dealer,
tl.s Sin JvIrrsuIT, u tI-v washington
Union, is the most impudent man in America,
because he undertakes to read Stephen A. Doug
las out of the party for refusing to sustain the
Dred Scott decision. Gray forgets that he and
the whole Democratic party of this State at
their State Convention, endorsed this decision,
and made it test of democracy. Douglas. it
is said now repudiates the doctrine of the de-
cision, and joins issue with the Administration,
and Gray and Forney sustain him; and now
when old Bucks organ, the Union, reads them
out OF the party, Gray thinks it wondrous strange
and marvelously 'impudent."
In the same column the Plain Dealer man
publishes an extract from CIay's Raleigh speech,
giving his views of protective tariff, and adds:
80 said Clay in 1874; so said the democracy
from the earliest stages of the tariff issue, and
so say they now, in every public meeting that
passes resolutions concerning the tariff. They
have been honest and consistent in their course -

ship Raising in sevast0p0I.

Raising the sunken ships at Sevastopol is still
going on successfully. number have been
blown to pieces and raised in fragments, and
Others are raised entire Among the latter is
the beautiful steamer Turk, captured from the
Turks at the commencement of the war. She
was built especially for the Sultan Her engines
are nearly in perfect order and her hull not at
all worm eaten The Russian Government ap-
praised her at S45, 900. A war steamer built in
1888 has also been raised, sound and uninjured
by worms, and engines in good condition. Five
Gamers more have been got ready to bring up.
The iron steamer Danube was found to be so
heavy that the iron chain used in lifting her cut
her completely in two. The yard of the compa-
ny engaged in raising the ships resembles vast
arsenal, strewed with portions of the recovered
wrecks, heaps Of guns, anchors, chains, and
every conceivable piece of iron used in a war
ship. Millions of dollars worth of property
still lies buried in Sevastopol, and writer Gays
if Golfer dams were built across the entrance TO
the Bosphorus, Sea of Azof, and the various
rivers that empty into these basins, the treasure
in Sevastopol harbor alone would cancel the
cost, provided some Yankee would invent
windmill pump of sufficient power to empty the
Black Sea
Three Greek parties are employed, numbering
about $50 men They dive without armor, and
are quite successful, receiving as compensation
a fourth part of what they raise. The process
by which these great ships are raised is simple
one, and is thus described in letter from Sc
vastopo, Sept. LIST.
We use q inch chain, passing under the
ship and connecting with the caisons above. In
order to get the chain under the ship the diver
is obliged to dig through the mud sometimes for
hours at once which is no easy task at fourty
feet under water. After digging to sufficient
depth, the diver takes long iron rod sharpen
ed at one end, TO the other end of which a rope
is attached, and forces it through the mud I'M
der the keel. moving it about so as to increase
the size of the opening to the other end of the
rope is attached the aforementioned chain,
which is drawn through the opening by the en-
gines on the cassOns above. Thus the chain is
passed under the ship, its two ends being then
secured to the caissons. Two chains only are
required, and each is placed about one thrd;the
longth of the keel from the ends The caissons,
two on each side of the ship, float on the water
until the chains are secured to them their
valves are then opened, which sinks them to
within two feet of the deck They are then
closed and pumped dry, and the vessel com
menees her upward progress after nap of three
years.

SUICIDE IN COURT.-A suit which has been in

The IndictmentI and the Renson.

Ex-Mayor Ferna ndo Wood of New York, and
nearly ali the members of the Common Council
of 1857, have been indicted by the Grand Jury
of New York, for violating the provisions Ofthe
charter in voting to lease certain lots of ground
to the Roman Catholic Orphan Asylum. The
Tribune says
The point of the charge is, that the Common
Council voted n lease without limit of time,
when the charter forbids such lease for more
than ten years at time. In consequence of
the slovenly manner of calling the yeas and
nays in the Board of Councilmen, large num-
Der of the members are set down as voting ''yes,"
when they were not present at all, or, if there,
had not the least idea of the buiness on hand.
The bill was smuggled through this Board,
during an exciting contest on the Street-Clear-
ing contract, no chance being given for debate;
and only when it reached the Board of Al
dermau did its real character become apparent.
There it was discovered to be an electioneering
dodge to get the Roman Catholic vote for Msy-
Wood, who had just been re nominated
The lease has never been executed, it having
been declared unlawful by the Supreme Court,
and the Controller refusing to sign the papers.

weight, and found the body perfect and convert

OF the husband, where it was visited by thou

The Detroit Advertiser of the 4th says;
Sufficient returns have been received from
different parts of the State to show that the
State has given a Republican majority of not
much, if any less than ten thousand majority
In view of the excessive inclemency of the
weather, this is 4 noble result. And even if
our majority should be one or two thousand
smaller, we shall be well satisfied with our ma
jority The vote must have been twenty thou
sBnd lighter than two years ago, and much the
larger portion of those who neglected to vote,
were unquestionably Republicans The GER
tainty every where felt amongst them that the
State was safe, was SO strong that thousands
and thousands of them would not encounter the
awful storm that prevailed during most of the
day. But still the state is safe by good round
majority-quite as large as is good for US in the
future.
The worst result of this over confidence and
neglect is the defeat of Mr. Howard, for Con-
gress in the first District, by Mr.. Cooper, Dem.
Ocrat, by about 100 majority This is Re-
publican loss which might have been averLed
just we'll not by anything ike full Re-

of the Counties of Wanye, ,Washtenaw, Livings-
