The fall in the prices of dry goods is,
in the opinion of the New York Times,
/" the first indication of return to sound
business. Dealers in other descriptions
of merchandise must follow suit, or they
will stand but poor chance of doing
any business this winter. The charges
exacted for everything that one wears or
uses in the house, have long been out of
all proportion to the worth of the arti-

1t seems that Virginius was captured
on the high seas, about twenty miles from
Jamaica. If this be true, there is no
force in the objection urged against
prompt action by Secretary Fish-that
it was by no means certain that the yes
sci was not captured in British waters,
and therefore subject for controversy
by Great Britain. The United States
Government, and it alone, must settle
the matter, and the American people de-
mand that it be settled by the seizure of
the island of Cuba.-St Louis Globe.

But to our text, the "AIcorn move

with originating or forwarding what was
termed the "Alcorn movement" there
being but two candidates presented to
the people, we voted for Alcorn as against
Ames, and we feel proud of it.
And we here assert that the "Alcorn
movement" notwithstanding all the OPP
position it has met with in Chickasaw
county, has secured the election of the
noblest Roman of them all, Gen. j. T.
Griffin, to the Senate. 1t has redeem

The Alcorn movement gave Monroe
with her thousand Radical majority into
the hands of the Opposition with ma
jority of three hundred.
The opposition to the Alcorn move
ment and the suicidal policy of the rule
or ruin Bourbons, gives Chickasaw with
her two hundred Conservative majority
over to the niger by majority of one
hundred.

and Williams drove to the house and eX-

Church Music.

1t is a fact acknowledged by all societies
the strongest aids that can be brought into
requisition to start the movement and Sc
cure patronage and support from the out
side world. 1t has always been considered,
and at present even more so than ever be-
fore, the principal attraction next to the
preachings from the pulpit A congrega-
ton in attendance upon divine teachings is
made up in every instance of the good, the
bad and the Indifferent. The one goes for
the express purpose of obtaining more of
that divine help and teaching from which
he has gained all of that comfort and re-
lief to his sin-burdened soul, which he al
ready enjoys: the other extreme case may
go from various motives to further his ends
or perhaps from certain attractions, while
the latter person is sure to attend and give
his support to that church which holds out
the most attractive feature. The worldly
minded man, as a matter of course, must
be induced to listen to the word of God and
be brought within the sound of the pulpit
I
in order to become a follower and profess
sor of good
This cannot be denied by even the most
radical of reformers. Music is consequent
| ly in universal favor among church-goers
as a class, and the better the music and its
rendition, the greater the aid it becomes.
In our larger towns choirs are supported
at a large outlay, and the society that pays
for this, in every instance, is well remunc-
rated by the accession which is sure to be
made to the ranks of its supporters. Evenin
our own State the churches that can afford
the expense at the start and are filled with
cnterprising men, are many of them in
possession of tirst-class choirs, who arc
paid liberal salary. BY this means the
singers can always be relied upon at every
service, and new music appropriate to thu
worship is rendered by them. In Burling
ton, st. Adams, Montpelier and othel
towns of lesser growth throughout thu
State, the experiment is successfully tried
Rutland has a number of good choirs, and
many wealthy societies for church worship
with large congregations who are constan
in attendance every Sabbath.
