One of the most remarkable manifes-
tations of our Blessed Lord which the
Epiphany Season calls us to contemplate
is the one made at the marriage feast in
Cana of Gaiilee. Christ enters, as it
were. the common social life of mankind,
to be mans Friend and Saviour in all
places and among temptations of all
sorts. Perhaps there is no fact revealed
concerning this Our Adorable Master,
which provokes more the hostility of the
sinful human heart. Certainly there is
none. the force whereof bad men, and
even some who call themselves Chris
tians, more persistently strive to forget.
Men are willing that Christ should dwell
in the Temples erected for worship, or
remain amid chambers of suffering, or
the abodes Of penury, or by the couch
os the dying, but they wish him far
away from everyday life, from the
fashionable circle, from the round of
amuscmcnts, from the haunts Of busi-
ness, whether the street or the counting
room. They draw very rigid lines, and
would contine Him within these, for
bidding every transgression. of their
sharply defined limits. There are polite
associations wherein neither His name
nor His words must be spoken. The cir
cles of frivolous pastime and indecent
pleasures for example, are no circles
where He must be looked for. He must
nc kept out OF the sphere of political ac-
tion as.weli--well away from the polls,
from the caucus, from Congressional
Halls, and even from the Courts Of JUS
tice. He must be debarred from Wall
street and Stato street, from Lombard
and Lothbury. Within these various
precincts men may do as they please
without fear OF His Intervention or re-
buke. Surely these purlieus OF yiceare
no places for His feet. Let lis eat and
drink, buy ana sell, with utmost liberty.

Crnsnders BEFORE Court.

Cincinnati, May 20.-Forty-th tenn
perance women arrested last Saturday,
were tried in the police court to-day. The
court room was crowded. A great mass
of people unable to get in waited outside
the building. Stanley Mathews and Judge
Hogan appeared as counsel for the ladies'
Testimony was heard on both sides, and
the case submitted without argument.
The charge was for violating city ordi-
nance by obstructing sidewalks. Judge
Marchant stated there had been techni-
cal violation of law, but in view of the lack
of bad motive on the part of defendants,
he would dismiss them, which he did, with
the admonition that if the act was repeated
they would be liable to arrest and punish
ment.
At the conclusion of the trial defendants
marched to North Baptist church where
league committees were in session.
They afterwards adjourned to the Sew
enth street Presbyterian church, where
prayer meeting was held until nearly night.
Frequent remarks were made, but no def.
mite course of action for the future was
laid down.
The temper of the meeting seemed to be
in favor of discontinuance Of visitation
in large numbers and for the acceptance o.
some new plan.
The police commissioners ordered an ad
dress to be sent to the temperance leagues
communicating the decision of the police
court and notifying the ladies to entirely
discontinue what is termed praying anC
singing on the streets or public ground.

What was Found in a Well.

The body Of VIM. Browning, an English
man, was found in an advanced state of
decomposition in we'll on the farm Of Mr..
Webster, in the town of Virgil, Cortland
county, on Friday, May Is.
Browning, who owned q farm in the
town of Hartford, left home on the night
of the 10th of December, since which time
no trace of him could be obtained until his
body was fshed ont of the we'll.
1t had been remarked by his family that
a feeling Of home sickness weighed upon
him constantly, and he often expressed an
intention of returning to England. After
searching in vain for him his friends came
to the opinion that he had done so.
The body was in a loathsome condition,
and had evidently been in the we'll long
time, probably ever since the night of his
disappearance. Webster's family used the
water Of the we'll regularly. 1t is supposed
that it is a case Of suicide.
The affair creates intense excitement in
the vicinity, especially in the family.

talking when they heard the noise, and re-
treated to the upper story. While stand
ing there the main part of the house was
wrenched away, leaving them with but a
thin partition against the swelling tide.
Their courage did not fail them, how
ever, and as they saw neighbor named
Humphreys floating by on portion of the
roof of his house they raised the window
and pulled him in. They wero all saved,
as were also Humphreys wife and mother,
who each grasped child and stood on beds
to keep them above the water.
Ryan Moran's tenement, on Main street,
was one of the few that did not go OFF, being
saved by the jam above mentioned. The
second story was, however flooded, and six
children were found huddled behind bed
in the chamber, up to their necks in water
and numb and half dead with cold.
One little boy came floating down to
Leeds ON board, from somewhere above.
Luckily he steered for a little knoll, not yet
covered, and throwing away his board he
climbed to the highest point Of the knoll.
Still the water rose and only spot as large
as a tableremained, when the water reached
its greatest height and the plucky fellow
was saved.

A baby was seen sailing down the cur

A Strange StorY of Crime.

In the early part of 1858, five men liv-
ing at Saegertown, Penn, entered the
house of Mr.. Bennehoff, wealthy gen.
tleman, at Petroleum Centre, and compel
led him to deliver up tho key to one of his
safes, in which he kept large sum of
money. The robbers secured over $500,
900, and made good their escape. Two of
them were afterwards arrested and convict
ed, and were sent to the penitentiary.-
Two others were never heard from, but
one. James Saeger, has been followed by
detectives ever since. The money was Sc
creted, but before the time appointed for a
division of the spoils Saeger stole the en-
tire sum, and fled. Mr.. Bennehoff offered
100000 for his arrest and conviction. Af-
ter search of six years, the outlaw has
at last been arrested, and is now secure in
the county Jail at Denver Colorado. The
story of his capture is related in the Dem
yer NeaOs, from which it appears that he
was recognized by Mrs. Potter, into whose
husband s restaurant he had gone to get
some oysters. She called him by name, and
he confessed his identity. Her husband rec
ognized him also, and though he had once
adopted the outlaw as his son, he was
ready to bring him to justice because of
some outrage he had penetrated upon a
relative. By following the advice of de-
tectives his arrest was finally made, and he
confessed everything. From his own ac-
count it appears that he became boatman
on the Ohio and Mississippi rivers after the
robbery and then went to Mexico. From
there he passed into Texas and entered in
the cattle business for three years. Start
ing north with drove of cattle he made
his way to Denver and into the hands of
the law. He says he intended to repay MI.
Bennehoff, but has met with too many re-
verses to do so. The stolen money, he
says, is where it can never be found"
