AccIDENT.-Levi Keller, a lad about IA years

The ITINERANT PREAcHER.-Rev. Thomas l..
Poulson lectured in Greenmount Avenue NJ. E.
church, on Monday night last on Fourteen
Years an Itinerant Preacher" to a large audi
ence. He said that certain callings gave men
freer access to human homes and hearts than
is commonly afforded. The physician and pas
tor see more of personal life, perhaps, than
most men. This is specially true of the faith
full pastor. The disappointments, griefs, hopes,
fears and joys that are hidden from the heart
less sight of the world, are eagerly and fully
rehearsed to the beloved pastor. So, by the
very nature OF things, he becomes profound
student in the essential phases of life that give
tone and direction to all human activities
This is still truer with regard to the Methodist
tinerant.
More than any other minister he comes from
among the people. He is not labeled at his
birth, and then trained, by Procrustean pro
cesses, to fitness that will necessitate the Di-
vine endorsement after he is finished but he
graduates from the class meeting up to the
"gifts, grace and usefulness" that compels the
Church's acceptance of what is demonstrated
to be call from God. Thus he possesses Q
broader understanding and finer appreciation
of life as it is, without the artificial edges thai
are turned toward the gaze of the world. He
not only sees the fringes and nounces, the art:
and airs, the purple and fine linen OF society
but talks, face to face, with raiments ofeameP'
| hair, and knows what men are when they-havt
| not on their company manners.

A SINGULAR VERDICT-Under this head the

That is, be was very drunk then, but sober now
For fear this might encourage some one to &c
and do likewise get under the influence of Ii
quor aud commit murder-we would seriously
advise them not to rest their hopes of acquittal
on the verdict of this Towsontown jury, for we
do not think that such conclusion will be ar.
rived at once in hundred cases. Chief Justice
fancy said that drunkenness was no excuse fol
crime, and the Court of Appeals of New York
last week acquiesced in this decision"

MARYLAND CENTRAL RAILRoAD.-Mr. VIM.
Gilmor, president ofthe Maryland Central Rail
road Company, has sent petition to the first
branch OF the city council of Baltimore, asking
re-enactment Of the provisions of the ordi-
nance of 1870, for the endorsement of the bonds
of that company TO the extent of $600,O00.-
This action is asked in view of the late opinion
of the city counsellor that the ordinance for
which re-enactment is sought is not in force,
and can be revived only by legislation and sub
mission to the suffrages Of the legal voters OF
Baltimore. The petition states that the memo.
rialsts asking for the passage of the original
ordinance represented taxpayers on over twen-
ty millions Of property, and claims that the en-
dorsement was always approved by the city
council, by the people at large and by thepress
of the city Under the beliefalso that the ordi-
nance of 1870 was operative the company, it is
stated, have expended time and labor in pro-

Help Your TowN-The way to make town
is TO help as much as possible every industry
in your midst. Judiciously aid every enter
prise that promises to add strength and charac-
ter TO the place. Ifyour neighbor builds house
help him to pay for it. If you are property
holder every new house strengthens you, and
it is but right to reciprocate. Don't hide dol
lar with penny. Look ahead. Consider what
is best for you in the long run. Don't be so
jealous. If you can draw advantage from an
enterprise forwarded by an enemy, support it
if it does enrich him, Should a man start
up legitimate business in an obscure part of
the town, whether or not friend, or even an ac-
quaintance, say good word for him wherever
occasion presents itself, it will cost you moth
ing, and may do him incalculable good-always
remembering that bread cast upon the waters
will return after days.
