From reports submitted to the Meth
odist State Convention at New Haven,
il appears that the number Of Meth
odist church members in Connecticut
is 10000. The number of churches
is 166. valued at s1,046,000, and of
parsonages, 165, valued at 81 ,208, 600.

THE arguments of the attorneys on
the question of excluding the Bible
from the Public Schools of Cincin-
natl, now pending in the Courts OF
that city, occupy large space in the
papers, and seem to excite good deal
of feeling on the part of the people.
1t is supposed that the decision of the
Court will not be announced for a
couple of weeks.
1T may be matter ofinterest, just
at this time, in view of the Bible con-
troversy in the Cincinnati public
schools, to know that the statute of
Indiana forbids the exclusion of the
Bible from the common schools of
this State. Our School Boards can
not, therefore, even if they were SO
disposed, follow the example OF the
Cincinnati School Board.
THE Ohio State Christian Conven-
ton, which has been in. session sew

felt in the exercises. Among the
topics discussed on Wednesday were.
What is the demand for an increase
Of - ristiaa effort in our State?"
~ T.. " shall we secure more general
attendance of the people in our places
Of public Worship" What can bust

CHRISTIAN activities and the entire
membership of the Church be best

tians in the work" The night SEES
sion was devoted exclusively to the
discussion of the question of the "Bi-
bic in the public schools" Many of
the speeches during the day, on the
various topics, were very fine, and
we're listened to by large audiences
with manifest pleasure.

For several weeks past there has
been in the churches of this city
mors than ordinary religious feeling.
An additional daily prayer meeting
has been established, and many per-
sons have been In regular attendance
at the exercises, both al. the rooms of
the Young Mems Christian Assoeia-
ton and the Second Presbyterian
Church, praying for revival of re-
ligion in our midst. God has been
importuned from the pulpit with more
than ordinary earnestness. In Occa-
sional cases unusual congregations
have assembled In the churches, and
the hearts of men have, In some
instances, been wrought upoa with
singular power. The weekly prayer
meetings In the.rooms of the Christian
Association have sWelled from few
to congregation that on Saturday
evening entirely filed the hall.
Many have been rising for prayers,
and the Christian part of our popu-
lation has been confidently looking
during the approaching Winter for
unusual religious manifestations.
With such antecedent circumstances
mass meeting of children was held
yesterday afternoon In the large audi
ence room of the Central Presbyterian
Church, the immediate occasion of
which was the arrival in our midst of
Rev. E. p. Hammond, the Evangelist.
Long before the hour arrived, men,
women and children began to assem-

were crowded to repletion. Chairs
were brought in, filing the aisles.
The children crowded into the vacant

MISTAKES ABOUT THE BEECHER FAMILY
Catherine Beecher writes an indignant note to
the New York Post, refutng the aspersions
that have been cast upon the reputation of her
sister, Mrs. Stowe, as house keeper Miss
beecher says that Mrs. Stowe has not only
had the appropriate training, but has both tai
ent and taste for domestic employmeIts, and
resorts to them as a pleasure and relief from
literary labor, so that in no case is she neces-
sarily dependent on servile caprces. When
resident in foreign lands, her interest and quick
perceptions added to her home acquisitions so
that her easy and well-appointed housekeep-
1ng Is often subject of admiriDg remark to
her friends and visitors. Among the other mis-
statements made by the piess in relation to her
family, Miss Beecher mentions the follow
ing:
Among many other false and discreditable
stories circulated of my venerated father. I
have again and again at different periods read
in the newspapers that at an appointed meet
ing he went through all the services, of reading
psalms, the prayers and the preaching, when
only one man was present, who was converted
by ms ABSURD performance. Again, and quite
recently read long account In various news
papers OF the details of an abrupt courtship,
which were as false to his well-known charac-
Ter Tor de!cacy and discretion as they were to
that of the lady thus implicated. Again, l
read of one of my brothers, who, at his sons
ordination, charged him not to forget that he
was the grandson Of his grandfather, the son
of his father, and the nephew of his uncle
which foolish speech, believe was made, but
by another person, and not by my brother
Again, read version of an old Almanac
story that amused our family circle in child
hood, OF coarse and irreverent minister, who
began his sermon with saying, sit is damned
hot! and this stale anecdote was fastened on
another brother, and discussed week after
week, at to its probable truth, although rub
licly denied by him, while every attendant at
renee.
Then, read that my sister, owning a place
IN Florida, had lost it for want of proper land
title; and again, that all her orange crop was
blasted; and again; that she changed her opin-
ion OF the negro character and concluded them
to be utterly worthless.

Vanderbilt and Garrison.

a Queer Story--Did Commodore Garrison
[From the St. Paul Dispatch, Aug 81
There is in New York steamboat man bv
the name of Garrison. When Vanderbilt be.
gan running his steamers to San Francisco
he engaged Garrison at ten thousand year
to attend to his business at San Francisco.
The contract was for ten thousand year for
ten years, and was in writing A little time
alter the Commodore sold out his interest to
the Pacific Mail Company and Garrison was
lett to himself. The latter threatened and
finally sued Vanderbilt, but to no effect. At
length, being weary of Vanderbilt,s delays,
and being a man famous for his Herculean
powers, he called upon the Commodore at his
little office in Fourth street. near Broad
way. On entering he turned the key and
placed it in his pocket. Turning TO Wander
bilt, he said: Commodore, you are at my
mercy. You or will never leave this office
till you have settled with me-" Upon this he
drew out an imposing looking revolver and
sat down opposite the Commodore.
Vanderbilt is not easily terrified. Address
ing Garrison, he said: Captain, keep cool ;
you are joking. Even if / wished could not
pay your demands here at this time"
Garrison was undaunted by this, but ex-
claimed: Commodore, it is useless for you to
talk so. This account must be settled. You
or will be dead, but will not leave this of.
flee till you have paid me-"
"How can i" said Vanderbilt, now begin
ming to feel the discomfort of his position.
"Well," said Garrison, Sin that safe there
you have enough to pay me. This account
must be settled, or you or die, that's ALL"
The Commodore looked sternly at Garrison
for moment, then turned to his safe, drew
out some stocks and bonds, and said "Gar.i
son., you are. game. Here are stocks ant
bonds. Take your dues, and leave"
Garrison selected one hundred Thousand
dollars OF the precious certificates, pocketet
them, and walked off. Ever since that tine
he and Vanderbilt have been good liends
Garrison is still here among New York ship
ping men, many OF whom have known him
in even more serious roles than this we have
described
