Political Notes.

The President amid the inmumerable and per-
picking questions constantly forced upon him
for satisfactory solution, has always shown a
disposition, as general rule, to do the best he
could. In many of his appointments he hat
been unfortunate, and We have never hesitated
to say 70. In the selection OF Brstow aud Jew-
ell AZ heads OF tue Treasury and Post-0hce De-
partments, lie has been fortunate in his choice.
Lancaster Erpress.
II Gov. Dix was not seventy-six years old, he
would probably be the next Republican candidate
for President. He was born too soon.
A Republican victory throughout the country
is now assured. The World arithmetic man har
begun calculations again. This Is an infallible
sign
1t is reported that the question of the U. +
Senatorshp III Maine has been settled by th'
Perham and Hamlin factions agreeing OH Coy
ernor Dingley as compromise candidate.

Mr. W. s. Auchincloss, Vice President OF the
jackson q Sharp Company, of this city, made
trip last winter to South America and visited
the citizens of Brazil with view to establish
ing business relations there. In this purpose
he has achieved very satisfactory degree of
su acess aud the results of his visit will accrue
in no small degree to American industnea. gem
e,ay including especially those of this city aud
Philadelphia.
In tile latter city the Baldwin Locomotive
Works and other industrial establishments which
furnish material to railroads lave received or
ders to the amount of $500, 000. which are ow-
ing iirectly to the exertons of Mr.. Auchineloss.
The Baldwin Company have Offered to c3mpen-
rate the Jackson 4 Sharp Company, but the lat
ter have refused to receive single cent except
that which comes in ali ordinary business niaii-
ner.
some two weeks since, the Jackson Il Sharp
Company were in the receipt OF orders from the
different railroad corporations ill Brazil for carr
of various sizes and kinds to the amount OF
800, 600, and have now every prospect Of es-
tublishing a still larger trade with that country.
The contract will be filed IN soon as possible
but the exact time of commencement OF the work
Is not vet determined upon. but Will be soon.
This order will give some impetus to the bust
ness OF the city, and the excellent prospect OF
establishing 30 large manufacturing trade
with S,uth America is highly creditable to the

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES BY The PASTOR.
Rev. Henry Ward Beeoher resumed his minis
trations in the Plymouth Church last evening.
The church WAS 30 packed with people that, du-
ring the services, fainting ladies were frequent
carried out. Charles Beecher, DR.. Edward
Beecher, Colonel Beecher, Harriet Beecher
stowe, assistant pastor Halliday, Professor Ray
mond, aud the Investigating Committee were
present. Mr. Beecher, lwho was greeted as he
appeared on the platform. with "a storm of ap-
plaune," gave ont the hymn, "PIase God from
whom all blessings iow," and then offered
brief prayer Ill which he expressed the hope
that much good would result from his labors
during the coming season. Professor
Raymond also offered prayer, giving thank
for the discipline brought upon their
pastor ''which was for the glory OF z on" A
hymn was then sung after which Mr.. Beecher
addressed the congregation. He said lie would
much rather have met his friends az usual at
the end of his vacation, but he was anxious that
the good old customary Friday night prayer meet
ngs should not be departed from lie spoke OF
the necessity of looking upwards in time Of trou-
be and appealed to the young men of the
congregation to grow i'll righteousness and the
spirit OF truth. He alluded to the trouble that
had fallen upon the church as kind Of grind
stone to sharpen their weapons Of spiritual war
fare for the remainder of the year, and thought
they would scome out of this trbulatiOn for
the glory of God" After the meeting the Ply
