A Innocent people have often been
surprised at public meetings to see with
what enthusiasm and unanimity persons
scattered in all quarters of an audience
shout for particular speakers. They regard
such manifestations as unmstakabls evil
dence of the popularity Of the persons call
ed for. At Republican meeting in In
diana the other day, speaker named Long
responded to loud call and took the stand;
bun big, strapping fellow persisted in cry
ing out. in stentorian voice, Long"
"Longi" This caused little confusion,
but after some difficulty in making himself
heard. the President succeeded in stating
that Mr. Long, the gentleman honored by
the call, was now addressing them "Oh,
he be d--dl" replied the fellow; "he's the
little skeezcks that told me to call for,
Long!" This brought down the house.

From the Logansport Pharos.
PRESBYTERIAN Synod.

The Synod of Northern Indiana of the
Old school Presbyterian Church, held an
interesting meeting in this city. extending
from the Goth to the Goth of the present
month. The number of elergymen in at
tendance was about sixty, the remainder be-
ing lay delegates. Many men of eminence
and position in the Church were present
from distance-among whom were Rev.
DR.. McMasters, of New Albany: Rev. DR.
Wood, of Philadelphia: Rev. Dr. Monfort
of Cincinnati; and Rev. Mr.. Hay, a return
ed Missionary from India.
The territory OF this Synod embraces the
whole of Indiana north of the national road
The objects of the meeting were to attend
to such business as the exigencies of the
churches undert care of the Synod might
require The interest of Hanover College
occupied large share of attention, as did
also the Theological Sc minary recently at
tempted to be established in the city of Chi
cago. According 10 the reports of the min.
isterial delegates, the churches under their
charge have advanced very considerably
during the past year in prosperity and piery.
They reported, however. many dark shades
One marked feature in the proceedings
of the Synod was the amount of devorion nal
exercise interspersed through its business.
One whole day at the beginning was set apart
TO this express object. 1t was the univer-
sal remark by the members, that more in
teresting and pleasant meeting of the Synod
had never been held. Sermons were
preached almost every day and evening;
and those of n. McMasters. Mr.. McCiel-
land of Peru. Mr.. Lower of Fort Wayne,
and Mr.. Cunningham Of indianapolis, were
marked for learning and eloquence. That
of the latter gentleman was particularly dis
tinguished for its graceful elocution and
rhetorical display.
The pulpts of the Methodist and New
School Presbyterian Churches were occu
pied Sunday morning and evening BY the
members of Synod. The Rev Messrs. AL
len and Jamss G. Brown. preached in the
former; and Rev. Messrs Donelson and
Fish, in the latter.
The members of the Syuod were greatly
pleased with Our goodly city of Logansport,
and the generous hospitality Of those who
entertained them. The meeting of the Syn
cd of Northern Indiana has left a sslutary
and permanent impression on all who at
tended its sessions, and will long be remem-
bered for the delightful reunion it afFor-
ded. Its next meeting will be held in Fort
Wayne, on the third Thursday in October,
1889
