MEETING OF PRESBYTERY.

The First Presbytery of the Associate Reformed
Church, met on Monday, 18th ultimo agreeable
to adjournment, at Amity in Iredell County, N. G..
In the absence of Rev. L. f. Boyce the former
Mcdonald, from Eph., 9th chapter and 10th verse:
FINALLY, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and
in the power of his might" After this, Presbytery
was called to order and constituted by prayer:
Rev. R. w Briee was chosen Observation-Disclosures
was fall meetng-all the Ministers being present
except Rev. E. +. Boyce and lie was providentially
hindered by the way.
But little business came up before Presbytery-
nothing out of the usual order. The greatest
harmony prevailed amongst the members, and all
business was transacted with dispatch. Not one
single discussion arose-not one harsh word was
uttered.
From the reports of sessions, it was manifest
that God had been merciful to his people-but
few deaths having occurred in any all of the
Churches under the control of Presbytery. Large
accessions have been made to many OF the Churches
and all things indicate that the Gospel is gaining
ground.
A request sent up from ellis Creek,
Lancaster District for the organization of Church,
which was granted This place also petitoned
for supplies.

agreed upon as days to be set apart for prayer in
behalf of those who neglect family worship; and
also for Pastors to preach upon that very important
duty.
A call was sent up from Yorkville and Tirzah
asking the ministerial labors of Rev. r. Latham,
which was accepted-the ordination and installation

Mississippi river to San Francisco.
OREGoN.-From several portions of the State
we have reports of the dying off of cattle, sheep
and horses. The long, protracted wet season, to-
gether with the scarcity of fodder and want of
shelter, has caused fearful ravages among every
species of live stock, and sorely impoverished many
of our farmers and grazers. Should the rains
continue much longer, il is feared that it will take
years for some of them to recover from the severe
losses inflicted

Nor SAFE TO BEAU OTHER MEMS WIVES

Nor SAFE TO BEAU OTHER MEMS WIVES
4nother ISickles' Case, Almost-The old proverb
is that sit never rains but it pours" The killing
of Key seems to have crazed the silly pates of
several very romantic married women in New
Orleans A few days after the Sickles tragedy a
married lady informed her husband that she had
been grossly insulted, the previous evening by
MIR B., an acquaintance the family. The
incensed and outraged husband, with revolver in
hand, rushed to the Office of the supposed offender
and demanded satisfaction. Satisfaction for WHAT"
asked the astonished Mr. B, "For having
insuted my wife, sir, last evening" responded the
excited individual. "Pray, sir, who dares charge
me with ever having insulted your wife, by look,
word. action" again inquired Mr. B.,
"The lady herself sir makes the charge" promptly
rejoined the husband. with your permission
sir, would be pleased to face my accuser, and
hear her make the charge in my presence" mildly
remarked the imperturbable Mr. B., "You
shall be gratifed, sir; come, walk with me-" added
the still exasperated husband, at the same time
returning his six shooter to his pocket.
Before giving the closing scene, it may be we'll
to inform the reader of the facts. On the evening
previous, Mr. B. had casually called at the house
of friend, and there found the lady in question,
without an escort. At late hour, she prepared
to return home, and Mr. b. kindly rendered his
services to see her safe to her door. The streets
on the island are not highly improved and on the
night in question were very muddy. At one
point the walk was quite intercepted by a mudhole
over which the lady and gentleman were compelled
to pass. A knight of old would probably have
thrown down his MANTLE over which the fair lady
might have walked but our hero having no such
appendage, proposed spring, by which his
companion with the assistance of his hand, cleared
the mud at a single bound. Without further
annoyance they reached the lady's residence in
safety.
The excited husband now ushered Mr. B. into
his parlor, and rang for his insultcd wife, who
promptly reported herself. Mr b. looking the
lady full in the face, asked, madam have | ever
by word, look, or deed, offered you the slightest
indignity or insult in my life?" A breathless
pause followed. The lady, after some hesitation,
falteringly answered, 81 thought you squeezed
my hand slightly in helping me the mudhoe
last night" The revolver dropped. and, after a
due apology to Mr. B., the mortified husband
turned to his romantic spouse and administered a
rebuke. to avoid the witnessing of which Mr. B.
hastily left the house and returned to his office,
Illuminating on the character of female women,
with the sage conclusion that, at the present age
of the world, it was not entirely "safe to beau
other mems wives"
