Ed. Iel.-The meeting at the Presbyte-
rian church last evening was in the inter-
est of the Women's MissionarySeciety con-
nected with the church. organized on the
first day of the year with Mrs. Myron
Whiting, President, Mrs. E. n. Webster,
Treasurer, and Miss L. n. Sabin, Secreta-
ry. Through membership fees and private
contributions, they hope to contribute an
nually to the general fund made up from
similar auxiliary societies scattered up and
down the land. Rev. D. L. Hikok
gave very fine discourse at the opening,
followed by remarks, the reading of statis-
tics by the President-Mrs Whiting, the
reading of an address by Mrs. r L. Gro
yer, and remarks by Mrs. D. L. HikOk,
showing the work done in heathen
lands by women, and which women only
could do. The exercises of the evening
were closed by the reading of the report
by Miss Sabin. Secretary. Quite number
gave their names for membership.
The lecture of Rev. J. N McGihsrt-
Up the RhIne-was delivered at the Pres
lyterian church, on Friday evening last.
Notwithstanding the unfaVorable state Of
the weather and the roads, there was pres
ent very good and highly appreciative
audience. We hear nothing but unquali-
fed praise of the lecture. We all feel that
we know more of the route from London
to the sources of the Rhine in Switzerland
than ever before, and also more of the Pc
culiarities of those people along the route.
Quite an accident happened to Miss 81

The SCEPTER DEPARTED.-We have
been in the habit of looking upon the edi-
tor of the Sentinel, as a sort of father in
Israel to the local press of the county, and
ceded to him the character of a moral
philosopher-yea, more,-a preacher of
righteousness. Of late, however, this
rather patriarchal respect has been some
what lessening. Another teacher has
arisen A venerable competitor has taken
the field, and the scepter seems to be about
departing from Isreal and being grasped
by our other contemporary Of the Reporter.
His aspirations are well backed. for he is
mighty in the scriptures, and multiplies
quotations with the ease, eruditiOn and
dldactic pathos, of Doctor of Divinity.
We rather think, brother Howells, you
will haYe to stand aside, for a greater than
Daniel is here.

The choir Ofthe Congregational Church
are rehe arising for public concert soon
to come eff. With Mr.. Blyth as the vocal
leader, and Mr.. Smith presiding at the or
gan, the expectation of a very satisfactory
entertainment may be justified Smiths
manipulations of the organ will stand a
favorable comparison with the best pro-
fessional players.
Since the above was in type material for
the following came to hand:
We cheerfully call attention to the Con-
cert of sacred music to be given by the
Congregational Church Choir next week,
the announcement of which will be found
in to-days issue.
We have been favored with a peep at
the programme which we Judge to have
been selected with unusual care. With great
pleasure we notice at least two standard
chOruses, viz "GlOry be to God on High"
MOzarfs Mass) and "Nights Shade no
Longer" (Rossini's Nose in Eggito.)
The programme also contains variety
of quartettes, duets, and solos, among these
we find, "Hear eur Prayer" How Beau
tiful," Jesus loves me-" Emerson's last
pubhcauon)
Jesus lover of my SOUL" all of these are
really gems of sacred music.
The opening organ voluntary will be a
novelty; this is Mendelssohn "Wedding
march" for four hands-additional to the
printed score. Mr.. Smith has arranged
Pedal O6IegGtO" expressly for this occa-
sion.
The second organ voluntary is a Pot
pOurri of familiar airs, seme of which are
introduced by spcial request.
Mr.. J. E. Smith, (the organist of the
church, will preside at the organ.
We confidently speak for our friends
of the choir, a full house, and that the au-
dience will enjoy an unusually pleasant
hour

Anything for the improvement of the
Cemetery grounds. Nature has done her
part in arranging the topography of
that spot and if the hand of art is duly
vigilant, its attractions cannot be easily
surpassed. If one half of the forest
trees could be removed with care and
taste, and the remainder trimmed up, it
would help matters very much.

Senator Morton has introduced in
to the Senate project for the Fed
eral supervision of interstate rail-
roads, and accompanies with a stud
led argument in favor of the right of
Congress to regulate the rates and
managements of such corporations.
He rests his case on the power given
Congress by the Constitution to regu-
late commerce between States. The
appeal to State charters he answers
by saying that State can make no
contract with rail road companies
carrying on commerce between the
States that would limit the power of
Congress. The state cannot obstruc
such commerce directly by tax o
other interference, and it certainly
cannot delegate to corporation a
power which it does not itself pos
sess. In the absence Of legislation
by Congress, states may regulate
the Interstate commerce that passes
through their territory; but when
Congress assumes It's Jurisdiction,
they must yield to its superior
claim. Railroad companies engaged
in interstate commerce accept their
charters from the States subject to
this right of Congress. In defense
of the expediency of this scheme,
Senator Morton dwelt at length on
the inability of the States acting sep
arately to control the great railroad
corporations, and on the danger that
one state might levy crippling trib-
ute on the trade of half-a-dozen
others.
