SINGULAR SCENE IN A CHURCH.

The Hartford Times says: A fun
ny scene took place last evening, in
St. Johns Church, East Hartford
during the service. The choir had
just finished chanting the psalter fol
the day when large corona of ever
grees, holding a couple of dozens Of
candles was found to be on fire. II
was suspended from wires directly
over the chancel, and held by large
wreaths of evergreens reaching to
the ceiling and sides Of the sacristy
1t was impossible at the moment tc
pull these down ,and they were soon
on fire, the flames spreading rapidly
along the heavy ropes of dry ever
green's. The Rev. Mr.. Pobbie, the
Rector, threw off his surplice, and
so, also, did the choristers, who
with the males in the audience, rush.
ed out of doors for snow, as no wa
ter was available. Then commenc-
ed a funny scene, all these men
throwing snowballs at the burning
wreaths. They thus succeeded in
putting ont the fire, which but fol
their prompt efforts might have
proved serious. After the excite.
ment had been quieted the service
was resumed,t the Rector announcing
that the TIE Deum would be sung
and all the congregation, which was
a large onejoined in singing it, In
consequence of the smoke which fiji
ed the church the sermon was dis
pensed with.

STOKES, NEW LEASE OF LIFE

Stokes who under the sentence OF
Judge Boardman had less than
Gwelve days to live, had a ray Of
welcome light let into his cell on
Saturday by the decision of Judge
Davis, allowing writ of error and
stay of the execution of his sentence
until the decision of the general
term. 1t is not likely that this new
turn of affairs will create anywhere
much disappointment, for it was on
ly what nearly every one expected.
So long has the public been accustom-
ed to writs Of error and stays of pro
cesding in New York, that for Grim
inal to be duly executed upon the
day Originally fixed by'thecourt would
be considered almost revolutionary.
If Justice in New York were now
what it was two years ago we should
regard Stokes'present reprieve equi-
valent to an escape from the gallows.
As it is now, the chances of his ex-
ecution and escape are obout equal.
Judge Davis grants the stay OF pro-
ceeding on the ground of malice on
part of the prosecution, and the
predetermination of one or more OF
the jury to find the prisoner guilty.
If these facts exist, they certainly
form proper ground for a new trial.
AS a principle it will not do to ad-
NIT to jurors, whose verdicts may
send men to the gallows, jurors who
have already made boasts that they
would s'fix" the prisoner. 1t is well
known in New York that the Erie
Railroad interest is bitterly hostile
to Stokes, and it is charged that the
influence of Jay Gould was at work
in the jury that pronounced Stokes
guilty. But the case is SO notorious
and public opinion concerning it SC
pronounced, that Notwithstanding
all the laws delay, Stokes chanc es
for life are still exceedingly doubt
full. How any jury can conclude other
wise than the killing of Fisk was
murder, it is difficult to see. But the
prisoner has a new lease of life,
heightened period of conflicting
hope and anxiety,which will be made
terribly impressive to the misguided
young man for one day at least,wher
on the 7th of March, Foster,his eel
neighbor, is led out before his eyes
to the fate from which he himself has
been temporarily spared.

THE PACKING SEASON.

The pork packing of the West this
season will reach 100000 head OF
hogs in excess of last year, whilst
the average weight per head will be
five pounds heavier. This will give
about S5,0O0,O00 pounds as the en-.
tire product of the West only, oi
meat and lard combined, and this
added to a probable increase in the
East, will insure an ample supply
the present year, both for home con
sumption and export abroad, and 6
moderate scale of prices.

HIHE CELEBRITY OF THE JANUARY
II Infrmary, established in Aurfrees-

name with the treatment Of Gamer until
they became synonymous, both passed away
with the war. But great discoyenes, like
truths, live forever. DR.. j. o. January, in
heritlng his fathers talents, and improving
on his experience, has achieved success in
advance Of their former history, owing TO
his increased patronage he has permanently
located in st. Louis; the numerous letters
he is receiving, and large arrival Ct pa

We would advise all afflicted with Cancer,

The Governor fortities his con-
clusions Oh the subject of scaling
by reference to the practice OF
other States, and attempts to show
that in the matter Of taxation we
have less reason to complain than
many other sections. His state
ments with regard TO the rate OF
increase, and the per capita taxa
ton, ignore the great obstruction
of property in the State, as well as
the fact of the existence of large
class Of non-tax-payers. The true
test of the burden of taxation,
would be its proportion to the es,
timatcd value of property real and
personal. .. ... .

which produced a spark, and COM
municatcd the flame to the lint
room, where all explosion took
place, blowing off the shingles in
every direction. Capt. James Pratt
was running the gin at the time.
About eleven bales Of cotton. the
gin and Clubhouse, some cotton
seed, &C., were lost. Several par
ties were losers. A subscription
was taken up for the Rev. Mr..
Lindsay, and 5000 have been al
ready subscribed.
