Mr. Reasoneri is appointed Presiding Elder
of Mount Shasta district, in room of MIR.
Simonds, who is removed to Marysville.-
| Trinity Journal
A Reasoner upon the great questions OF
eternal life and death, upon the summit Of
Mt Shastal Such is the picture that would
force itself upon an active imagination
With Mt Shasta for pulpit and Mt Shasta
for a theme, and the voice of a strong evan.
gel to make itself heard from mountain-top
to mountain-top and valley tovalley, what a
world-waking sermon mightnot be preached
What sublime wateh-tower from which to
proclaim glad tidings to a lost and ruined
world What an illustration, and a living
symbol of the majesty and might of he
Eternal One that grand old peak upon whose
bleak and barren brow the ages gone have
showed their years
True, the idea is an extravagant one, but,
it matters not the mind still loves to swell,
like heayenward aspiration, from the sug-
gestive fact into the suggested fancy-to rise
from the material to the immaterial-from
the actual to the possible or the impossible,
and to forget in the grand realm of visions,
the point from which it started, as the Bird
Of Jove the skygrazing promontory from
which he rose into the blue empyrean. 1t is
tle nature of the mind to associate the visi
blo with the invisible and what is vastr in the
physical with what is infinitely waste in the
spiritual world 1t is a Legitimate exercise
of the mind, to crafty, in some small degree
its insatia lie thirst for the infinite, and to
magnify the unimportant real into the gran
deur and the mystery and the vastness Of
the unreal. Thus We may be excused, if we
see, in imagination, upon the hoary summit
of Mount Shasta, a white winged, heaven
descended Revoator of the hidden truth of
God strong voiced as the far-sounding and
ever musical sea, lavishing its eloquence upon
the shores of listening continents and enrap-
tured isles, and steadfast to proclaim the glad
tidings of the immortal Gospel of our Lord
and Savior, Jesus Christ, until the Day of
Doom and the coming of that night "in
which no man can work"
But, though there be no such " Reasoner
as the one we have imagined, and no such
pulpit as Mount Shasta, yet, the word of God
may be as potent from the lips of the "Pre-
siding Elder of Mount Shasta district in his
pine pulpit, as if he were to come with all
the pomp and power of an attending Heaven
for the eloquent word, that thrills to the core
of the human heart or stirs the inner deeps
Of the human mind,-the truth that rives
the sinners soul, and the peace that comes
with "healing on its wings"-are as much
the gift of God as if they were uttered from
an arehangers throne

on the night of the Sth inst:
The Alleghanians were performing in pres
ence of very large audience Most of the
ladies of Yreka were present When the
concert had fairly commenced, and at the
close of very popular song, the encore and
stamping of the audience shaking the floor
of the stage caused one of the camphene
lamps to upset, and while one or two persons
were endeavoring to smother the flames an
other lamp was upset. About this time the
crowd made a rush for the stairs Several
persons seized the carpet of the stage with
which to smother the flames, when most of
the other lamps were upset. The flames now
loomed up terrifieally, and the screams of
the women and children were appalling
The jam to the stairway was suffocating
Several of the ladies tainted, and it seemed
that the whole stage was in a blaze The ter
ror and confusion which prevailed throughout
the whole room at this instant cannot be
comprehended except by those that have
been placed in like situation some Jumped
from the front balustrade some II or IA
feet to the ground; others jumped down
stairs over the heads of the men and women ;
some went down head first, and this morning
we find but few persons who know how they
got down. But we are glad TO sayall got out
