Our esteemed friend, Mr. vallandigbam. sB,r
has his admirers in spite Of his crooked mi;
ties. In Ohio SARDINIA District) a Metbodi.,
clergyman was requested to bestow uno, a
wailing and helpless infant the name of vaIlan-
digham in baptism. This the good minister
positively refused to do, saying that "he would
mot give any child the ZANE Of traitor,
We have read somewhere of an English cler.
gyman who was requested by a ranting infide
to christen child Judas Iscariet,' and who
was brought into an ecclesiastical court for re-
fusiDg to do as reque2tcd. This was rather
more outrageous we are willing to admit, than
the case in Ohio.

1t is not improbable that the earnest and in
dignant protest of the citizens who met at
Cooper Institute last evening against the ex-
penditure of public moneys to sustain sectarlan
schools, will be lost on the authorities who
have largely devoted themselves to this and
their own interests. Nevertheless it was one
very proper and necessary to be made, and 1t
will have a desirable effect in arOusing public
interest on the subject. There has been too
much indifference displayed heretofore there
ought to be energetic opposition by all legal
means to further unjust appropriations of this
kind.

A dispatch from Peoria announces meet
ing of Ladies opposed to Woman Suffrage
with an attendance of about lOO including
several prominent ladies of the city, There
was something very retiring and exclusive
about this assemblage, for "men" were re-
fused admission, AS also we're reporters. 1t ~
understood. however, that the meeting was
unanimous in its hostility to the feminine
ballot. This is fresh evidence, although we
hardly needed it, that women may be divided
into three classes: tst Those who really want
TO vote; Cd Those who really do not want to
vote and. Sd. Those who do not care pm
whether they vote or not-and this last class
probably out-numbers both the Others fifty to
one.
And speaking upon this subject, we may
inst mention that Miss BarkalOw, after a
severe examination, has been admitted 10
practice as an attorney law in the Circuit
Court at st. Louis. If Miss Barkalow wished
to DO a lawyer and bring actions, and say,
Nav it please your HOnorm there was no
reason why her wish should not, upon proof
of her qualification be grattied. we beg
leave however to point out that 1t is an es-
tablished fact that one swallow does not make
q Summer. Our own opinion is that the num-
Der of women attorneys will always remain
small The laws which have guided the human
race il the distribution of emplOyments cannot
be repealed. But let every woman have the
exceptional chance which she covets.

The Close Of the Week.

A week. 1t is but short time, indeed.
but its events are host. To whom has
the week just closed brought joy? to whom
sorrow? to whom riches to whom power
ty? to whom friends? to whom health ?
to whom happiness?
What all these changes in one week ?
Yes, and host more numerous than the
sands of the sea. Many who saw the
dawn of the present week will be in an
other world ere it cleses: many on whom
fortune smiled 4 week ago, are groaning
beneath the withering frowns of poverty |:
many who were floating gently on the
bark of life Ger the unruffled sea of han
piness aweek ago, are now wrecks of ruin
on the shores of atfiiction; many uron
whom the sun of last Sabbath shone pro-
piticusly, have ere this met with ill-for-
tune and been turned upon the world
children of poverty. and many whose ex-
pectations and hopes were beaming forth
bright and prosperous, are at its close the
miserable beings of cruel disappointment.
And such is sthe life of man 1t is SUBJ
ject to changes in a week, day; nav,
even an hour. The world is still in COM
motion-revolution succeeding revolution
time spreading its progress, leaving be-
hind traces Of destruction and in small
community many thrilling and exciting
circumstances might be summed up and
recorded at the close of each week.

An Old Relic.

One of the early Baptist ministers of
Newport. r. L., was Obadiah Holiness
Little is known of him except that he was
pastor of the first Baptist church. He
went to Massachusetts to preach. He had
no license from the Puritan court. The
Puritan preachers. who did not like
to have Rhode Island Baptist preaching
on their manor, had Mr.. Holmes arrested.
put in Jail, tied him to 4 cart, and public
ly whipped him at the Jail. SO far as is
known he is the only Baptist ministerthat
shed his blood in this land for the good
cause. In the bottom of an old chest an
autograph volume had been found. writ

Lnre Rail Read Disaster

MEMPHIS, Feb. 27.-A painful rumor
prevailed here last night, that fearful
accident had occurred on the Mississippi
Central Railroad during the afternoon,
attended with great loss of life. Passen-
gers from Greneda this morning confirm
the reports. They say that the regular
mail train, when three miles below Ok
ford, yesterday afternoon, ran through
the trestling, smashing the baggage, ex-
press and four passenger cars, killing and
wounding a large number. At last ac-
counts, twelve bodies had been taken from
the wreck, including Mr.. Mcdonald, the
road master, and two ladies, names un-
known, a. 5. McConnico, treasurer of
the road, and his son, Samuel B., were
fatally injured.
Among the killed was Colonel Speers,
a planter residing fourteen miles from
Jackson, who was returning from Chica-
go with thirty laborers. Also S. G. More
house, of Elkhart; Mrs. Duncan h. Far
rell. who arrived from Scotland via New
York, and j. c. Mcdonald, supervisor of
the southern end of the road. The names
of the others have not been ascertained,
but it is believed they are all from the
South. Among the injured was Miss Ag-
gy Ellicott, of New York who was fasten-
ed an hour in the wreck by the side of five
men who were killed, but she was recov-
cred without apparent injury except
badly injured hand. Col. Sam. Tate, Pres
ident of the road, who was nearly slffoca-
ted by passengers thrown upon him in the
wreck, is now comfortable. One mans
leg was badly broken, another's knee
crushed, many cut and bruised, and three
or four suffering from internal injuries.

one-half an hour behind the wrecked train

One Of the Strongest Men OF the
Period.

Isaac Eaton, of Clay township. died on
Christmas day, at the advanced age of
ninety-fve years Mr. Eaton was born in
Louden county, Va, in the eventful year
of 1775, but was raised in Maryland, in
the vicinity of Antietam and South Noun
tain-a locality made historic by the
events of the late rebellion. On the
breaking out of the second war with Great
Britain, Isaac Eaton, then nearly twenty
five years old, enlisted and served during
the war, being at Washington when that
place was captured and near the Capitol
buildings burned by the British. Mr.. Ea-
ton in his younger days. was a man of
great strength possessed with n little,
wiry body, under medium size. and in the
numerous personal encounters quite COM
mon at that early day, became quite ia
nous for never having ''met his match"
In the war of 1872 Eaton served with the
Virginia militia. under the command of
General Mason; One day at a general re-
view, Mason rode up and down the lines.
proclaimng that he had man in his COM
mand who could whip anything in the
whole army. This challenge, several times
repeated, was at last responded to by a
perfect giant of a fellow from a Pennsyl-
vania regiment, who came stalking down
the lines and asked General Mason to
bring ont his man. The General ordered
Eaton oui of the ranks. He was eyed by
the Pennsylvania with about as much
scorn as Goliath was suppose to have look
ed upon David. Word was given to be-
gin the battle, and there before the
whole American army, formed in hollow
square, the two men stripped to the waist
and engaged i'll combat; but in less time
than it takes to tell it, Eaton lifted his
Herculean opponent from the ground. and
twirling him over with appearntly as
much ease as dandy would cane, held
him up befo.e the whole army in this re-
versed position, until the giant Pennsyl-
vanian begged for quarter. At another
time, in Kentucky, Eaton was forced to
accept a CHALLENGE to fight, and on the
first encounter threw his opponent to the
ground with such force as to break nearly
all his ribs. M
