In regard to pastoral visits, and to silly
women who feel good over their minister
and his preaching, the New York o.
serrer delivers the following timely little
sermon:
"All judicious pastors discourage ia.
miliarity on the part Of their people, es-
pecially Of the female denomination. For
this way lies the danger. A silly woman,
pious perhaps, but very soft and shallow,
hears the stirring words Of her eloquent
pastor, is reused, warmed, soothed, ex'
alted-she thinks edifed-and stIaightwsy
she believes him TO be the man sent 10
do her good. She goes TO his study to
tell him SO; how much enjoyment she
finds in his words; or she writes him a
letter, and pours out her little soul full
Of twaddle about her gratitude for what
her dear pastor has done for her; how
sho lis lifted up by his instructions; how
she loves him as q friend given to be her
guide and comfort, and so on, more and
worse, running into mAwkish sentiment
ality, Q sickening man.worship, disgusting
to every sensible person, but very nectal
10 vain, worldly preacher, who seeks
only to make his hearers "feel good"

The Grape CrOp and Wine Trade.


The grape crop Of California was never
in more promising condition both as re-
CARDS quantity and quality, than 1t is this
season, the vintage being placed at 10,
100000 gallons, against a yield of 4OOO,.
900 gallons in 1873 and 100000 in 1879.
This large increase may be accepted as q
good guarantee Of the same success in the
manufacture Of wine which was achiev-
ed about three years ago. During the
past few years the grape growers in many
cases have been able, in consequence Of
various adverse circumstances, to do only
the washing Of the grapes, and have been
obliged 10 send them in that form to San
Francisco for further treatment, but this
season they expect to do better than that

oNVIhEh DIPLOMATIC DIFFICULTY.
NEW YORK, August IA Paris cor
respondent says the Archbishop Of Paris
has given rise 10 another Diplomatic dif-
hculIy, owing TO pastoral letter which
was read TO few Of the faithful In he
Cathedral and posted upon the wall for a
short time. No journal dared publish It.
Some idea OF Its tenor may be formed
from the following facts: First. 1t was
written Immediately after N. Gilbert's re.
turn from Rome, where he had several
interviews with the Pope. Second. Mar.
shal De McMahon went directly TO De
Nigras house and made an apology for
the letter, saying that q note on the sub
jecl would appear in the Official OF the
next morning. The reference Is that The
pastoral letter contained things offensive
to Italy and to Victor Emanuel.
CHINESE COOLIES IN CUBA.
A pitable story ol the horrors of the
Chinese coolie system In Cuba Is told BY
an educated Chinamsn, a mandarin Of
the third class row in exile. From this
account It appears that the condition
oi Chinese laoorers in Cuba is much
worse than that Of the negro slaves. The
poor Chinaman is held for limited periods,
His owner has paid good price for his
term oil bondage. He must get all he can
before the coolies freedom comes. Death
SO often intervenes before the end Of the
term oi service that 1t Is estimated that
only one in twenty lives 10 return 10
China. The writer thinks there can be
no hope for the Chinese people until there
is q change in the ruling race.
ITALY HoPELEssLY DANKKRuPr,
a European letter says that Italy seems
70 become more hopelessly bankrupt,
The people are sincerely loyal to their
King; the ministers are almost pc.
dantically attached to the English theory
oil parliamentary government; the State
asks nothing better than 10 leave the
Church alone; but they have no bread
and no specie, and they have floods, ma
laris, bandits and paper money.
a Paris correspondent says that three
OF the Carlist officers responsible for the
execution OF the German named Schmidt
have been arrested. After Schmidt's ex.
ecution they fled 10 Psu, where they were
arrested and sent to Paris, whence thew
were taken to the Belgian frontier. The
Belgian authorities re.expelled them,
They then returned to Paris and were re-.
arrested at the railway station. Their
names are Leopold and Louis Gallstie,
aged % and 10, and Pascave Jarque,
aged 42,

General d. r. Kelley as Il Candidate
for Congress.

Editors Of the IntellIgeneer:
! learn through the papers that several
prominent Republicans have been named
as candidates Tor Congress In the First
District. Among the number l notice
the name Of General B. +, Kelley, Of this
city. | know that the soldiers OF the dis.
lrict would rejoice with myself 10 have
the opportunity Of voting for their old
commander. / deem it unnecessary 10
say anything in behsliof General Kelley,
as he Is probably better known 10 the
people OF the district than any man In the
state. The military history Of the State
IS his history, he having inaugurated the
trst military movement, commanded the
first column, fought the first action, and
shed the first blood Before be had fully
recovered from the terrible wound re-
ceived in the action OF PhillippI, he
was appointed to the commsnd Of
the Department Of West Virginia. His
military administration Of the affairs Of
the Department and his skill and gsllantry
In the field were always approved and
iully appreciated by the renowned Sec
retary Of War. The administration oi his
late civil office always met the full ap-
proval OF the Treasury Department at
Washington City, and although the duties
we're In some instances difficult to exc
cute, some portions ol the revenue law
being repugnant to the views Of the tax
payers, yet were discharged by him with
such promptness and courtesy that he
made hosts Of friends in the district who
would gladly embrace the opportunity to
vote for him for their representative in
Congress.

THE DOCTRINE OF THE RESURRECTION.
The Rev. T. A. Goodwin, q Methodist
clergyman Of the Indiana Conference, Is
shortly 10 be tried for heresy on account
Of the views expressed in a book recently
published by him, in which he says he be.
lieves in a resurrection Of the material
body that is laid in the grave, and holds
that at death the believer passes at once
to his entire personality into the presence
Of the Lord. The Datter came up at the
annual meeting Of the Indiana Conference,
Of which Mr.. Goodwin Is member. On
the question Of passing his character as
minister severe criticisms were made on
him as the writer ol this book, and he al
once demanded formal trial.
Concerning this case, the ChrhtiG1
Union says:
"It will be interesting to see whether
the Methodist Church holds that such
views unfit a man-and one proved by
long service in the ministry-to preach
the Gospel Of Christ. We greatly mis-
take the spirit Of that Church II any such
decision Is reached"
