REV. j. w. PRATT.-A considerable por-
ton of the PRESBYTERIAN element of our
community was cdiiicd on last Sunday by
the sermons Of this learned divine, who Is
pastor OF the Prcshytcrian Church in Lex
incton, Va. He preached three times. In
the morning and ut night in the First, and
in the afternoon Mt the Grace-street Church.
His first sermon was on Heaven" the
text being the words # the Saviour as re-
corded by st. John: "In my Fathers
house are many mansions: l go to prepare
a place for YOU" The subject was ably
discussed, and the cgation was pro-
foundly attentive. In the afternoon MIR.
Pratt preached from the text, "Gather up
the Fragments" to a large con crcgation.
But it was at night that the Lexington
preacher attracted his largest congregation
and made his best effort. 1t was lecture
rather than 4 sermon, on Mary the
mother of Jesus" The line of thought
marked ont was a new one, and it was fol-
lowed with an earnestnesS Of manner,
cogency Of reasoning, simplicity Of style,
and wealth of illustration, that absolutely
enchained the attention of the congrega-
ton. OF course it is not within our prov.
ince to express m opinion as to the truth
of the speakers conclusions, but we have
rarely had the privilege of bearing sermon
aflyrding greater intellectual treat.

How It Was Done.

The Democratic press are now
boasting over the election of State
Senator in Philadelphia, in place of
Republican. 1t is a "big thing"
with them,a satisfies them beyond
all doubt that the. Republican party
is dead. A Philadelphia letter to
the Pittsburgh Commercial, in ex-
planning the process of this great
victory, says:
Every precinct was thoroughly
organized, and every Democratic vo-
ter was waited upon and besought
to attend the election, and vote ear
". Almost the entire police of the
CITY were brought into the district
not to enforce order, but to encour-
ace Democratic violence and brow
beat and intimidate the Republican
precinct men. None of them were
to be found in the stronghOlds fthe
Democracy, but they swsrmed in the
Republican wards, and we're prompt,
when voter was to be beaten to jel-
ly by Democratic roughs, to arrest
him and lock him up until after
nightfall. In the face of dozen Of
them the rufflans held possession of
the Republican voting place atTenth
and Locust street during the entire
afternoon, and drove the eolored
voters from the polls. This is but
one instance.in fifty. Thus backed
by the police, and with the Assis-
tant District Attorney as their can
didate, the Democracy wrought their
own sweet rule through the larger
portion of the Fist District. Their
repeaters were on hand from New
York and Baltimore, and combined
with fellows of their own kind from
all quarters Of this city, marched in
gangs of from ten to forty, from poll
to poll, voting up the registry. The
returns from each precinct were car
ried hourly to the Democrrtie head
quarters, and when the majority was
large enough the word was passed
around and the fun stopped. Citi-
zens on going to the polls found that
their names had already been voted
upon. 1t was useless to complain,
for the troublesome voter was prompt
ly knocked down dragged out and
then arrested by the police. 1t is
charged that some of our election
officers were subborned, and many
/ of our colored voters bought up, but
this hypothesis is not necessary to
account for the result. The maiori-
ty for Dechert is large; but would
have been twice as large had the
Democratic leaders so ordered it.
While their vote in the district is
certainly three thousand short of
that polled last October (when they
cheated enough in all conscience
their vote at the late election is fif-
teen hundred in excess of it. Or
ganized az the Democratic ma
chine was, and backed by the
municipal authorities in its program
me Of violence, it is difficult to per
ceive how they could have been bea-
ten, in any event.

Iovful Newz for Husbands.

A gentleman in London recently
resisted the payment of a bill for
goods which his wife had purchased
without his authority. He resisted
payment chiefly on the ground that
the articles purchased were luxuries,
not within the ordinary scope Of the
duties of "a wife, and not necessary
TO her station in life. Among these
were s gold pencil case, a guitar and
q double-scent bottle. The Judge
before whom the shopkeeper brought
q suit for payment decided the arti-
cles named to be unnecessary. In
his mind they we're useless luxuries
to the woman who had contracted
for their purchase. He gave it as
his hst that Sthe law is not bound to
render any assistance to the growing
luxury and degeneracy of the age"
and the husband, in obedience to
this decision, kept his money in his
pocket.

There has been much curiosity as
70 the origin Of Jim Fisk's famous
saying: "Gone where woodbine
twineth." The mystery is thus un-
rayeled by I'D. P" in letter to the
Cincinnati Commercial:
By-the-by, my genial friend the
Hon. S. S. Cox, tells me of the orig
in Of that mysterious hut some
what famous expression.
"What The devil, JIM" he asked
one day, "did you mean by the place
where the woodbine twinethT"
"Well, I'll tell you, Colonel. You
see was before that learned and
dignifed body, the Committee on
Banking and Currency, and when
Garfield asked me where the money
got by Corbin went to, / could not
make vulgar reply and say up the
spout, but observing, while peddling
through New England, that every
spout Of house or cottage had 8
woodbine twiniag about it, 1 said
naturally enough where the wood
bine twineth. That all. Itseems

This linen, ornamented with figures

Disappearance Of an Island Thirty
nix Milea Long, $3.50

ak Miles Long.
One of the most extraordinary loc-
currences ever announced has Just
been reported as having taken place
In the South Pacific ocean. Captain
Plock of the barque Adolphe, bound
from Inquique to London, states
that while passing the New Helvides
Islands be discovered that the Auro-
"a Island had entirely disappeared,
and nothing whatever was to be seen
Of it on the face of the ocean. With
the exception of eight or nine of the
islands, Aurora is one Of the largest
and most fertile. 1t lies in latitude
10 degrees 2 minutes south, longi-
tude 16S degrees 25 minutes east,
and was about thirty-six miles in
length, and upward Of five miles in
breadth. 1t has always been known
that two of the islands Ambrym and
Tanna, contained volcanoes, but ali
the other islands were generally sup
posed to have little or no tendency
TO volcanic action. How or when
the Island Of Aurora and its inhab-
itants disappeared beneath the South
Pacific, is at present unknown; but
no doubt Captain Plock will be able
to give more particulars ofthe catas-
trophe on his arrival.
