The IRISH REvIvAL.-There is probably moth.

such interest as the revival ia Ireland. It is
pronounced zone of the most remarkable out.
pourings Of the Holy Spirit which has ever been
Witnessed" Not only ministers and laymen
from Scotland, but q deputation of Independent
ministers from London, have expressed their
strongest convictions of the genuneness of the
movement. While, perhaps, the Presbyterian
churches have shared most largely in its bene-
fits, the Episcopal, Wesleyan and Independent
churches have heartily Co operated. The Rev.
Mr.. Trench, of county Meath, Ireland, writes:
"a solicitor in Belfast informed me that liti-
CATION had decreased; publican. that no man
could live by the trade; aud policemen, that now
they had less to do than usual. Beyond all
doubt the most abandoned of women have tor
saken the streets and cried to Jesus for mercy.

savings banks have greatly increased, and l can

strong feelings of sin and bodily weakness, to 90

business in factories has been stopped through
the same cause but believe it has been already
in some degree made up to their masters by the
return on Monday morning of hands which
used to be disabled by intemperance on the Sab
bath. The more 1 see of this work the more

A THE NEXT PRESIDENCY. National In
teligsncer excuses itself for declining, at the re-
quest of correspondent, to republish from al
other journal communication, reviewing the
lives and public services of two eminent Oppo-
stion statesmen, for the purpose of showing the
superior fitness of one Of them ter the PEesiden'
Qy, but adds; -. -.
1--WE confidently hope that our political friends
will, at the proper time and in the proper man
ner, be able to present to the country, as candi.
dates for the highest Offices in the gift of the peo
pie, such honorable names as shall not only re-
ceive our support, but that of all who desire te
inaugurate d new era in the conduct Of the Gov.
eminent, and one under which more shall be
done In the way of practical administration, and
less shall be said in the way of angry discussion
which, barren for good, is prolific only of evil
To this end we are aware that mutual inter
change of opinion among the different bodies in.
to which the Imposition are divided Is aboso-
lutely necessary, and the work should be under
taken by conservative citizens in all parts Of the
country IN spirit of candor and Cancellation
with reference rather to the wants of the nation
than to the promotion Ct personal aspirations"

KENTUoKY.-A tie vote was reported in the
4th Congressional District, but the Louisville
Journal of the 10th instant says that dispatch
received from the Office of the Secretary of State
on the evening previous, announces that the re
turns from all counties in the 4th Congressional
District had been received, and that Anderson
Opposition, has been elected by three majority
1t this should prove correct the Congressional
delegation in the next Congress will be equally
divided, FIVE Opposition and five Democrat mem
bers being elected, In the last delegation there
were but two Opposition members. The OPP
position, in the August elections, have thus
gained nine members of Congress, viz: three in
Kentucky, four in Tennessee and two in North
Carolina,

The Gonzales (Texas) Inquirer says: GA flock
Of some $4,000 head of Mexican sheep and goats
crossed the river at this place last Thursday, 60
ing East. In order that the reader may form
some idea of the extent of this business in our
State, we will here remark that, from safe cal
,ulaton of one of our sheep rasers, it is estma-
ed that not less than one. fourth of q million of
sheep have been brought into Texas from Next
70 since the 1st of January last, exclusive of
hose imported from Tennessee, Illinois, Missou-
j and Arkansas"

SHEEP DuLL.-Eighteen thousand sheep--an
unprecedented number-were received in New
York, last week. The extreme drought has
parched the grass, and induced their owners to
send them to market. The lambs are, many of
them, not 10 good condition, and sell at . dollar
q head. The market is so dull that many dro.
vers have taken their sheep to Long Island, and
distributed them among the farmers.

The VALUE OF Fox HoUNDs.-We confess
entire ignorance as to the value Of an ''estab-
lisbed" pack of hounds, and could not, there
fore, say whether such pack would be cheap
at 91, 900 or 91,2 200. The Encyclopaedia Bri.
tannica (new edition) puts the average price at
something less than the highest of these sums
The renowned pack of Mr.. Warde brought 1000
guineas. When blindness compelled Mr.. Fo.
ambls to lay aside the scarlet in 1916 his pack
was sold for 5000 guineas. The late Lord
Middleton gave Mr.. Obaldistine 1000 guineas
for ten couples of hounds out Of bis kennel, and
the Earl of Stanford gave 40 guineas for four
couples of Mr.. Richard Sutton's hounds.-Eag.

Re m Sunday School Picnic. sAs"
Aessrs E5itors:-You will greatly oblige US
by publishing in your excellent paper, o few
things about our Sunday School Pic Mic at New
Hope, Wednesday, the 10th inst The company
was large and respectable: four or five hundred
were present, and the general conduct was most
praisewortLy. -
The friends of the Sunday School cause brought
an abundance of eatables; there was not only q
plenty, but variety; indeed the table would
compare faVorably with most tables on public
OCCASIONS.
The Rev. Mr.. Cumming addressed the School
on the importance of Sunday Schools. 1t was
very good. After the address all repaired to the
grove and partook Of the refreshments. Oh
how interesting the sight "Behold how good
and how pleasant il is for brethren to dwell to-
gether in unity" Dinner over, the writer made
q few remarks on the necessity of a Prohibitory
Liquor Law. Thus ended the Picnic at Round
Hill. VIM. O. MoCARTY.

to be, their skirts would be as short as hers!

THE Late Elections.

The Opposition have failed to elect their can
didates for Governor in Kentucky and Tonnes
see. but in both of those States, as well as in
North Carolina, they have made considerable
gains in the Congressional representation. In
Kentucky they HAYES gain Of three congressman;
in Tennessee four, seven Opposition and three
Democrats having been elected; and in North
Carolina two, the delegation consisting OF tou.
OPPOSITION and four Democrats. These results
settle it that neither the Democratic nor Repub-
lican party will have majority in the mex
House of Representatives. The Wings and at

from these States stood sixteen
Democrats and six Opposition, all of the latter
being from the three Southern States. Should
the Democrats carry the whole twenty-five
yet to be elected, they would still be
in o minority of fOrty-one.
