favor Of 80. Here would be majority
Of 5 for NJ. Powpins. Now ii this
showing it will be observed that We have
omitted White Pine and E~meraida AL

neralda gave Powning n majority OF u
and White Pine gave Hill a majority OF
10. SO we have concluded TO call those
two counties a stand eff aad have left
them ont Of our count altogether. Now
if Hill can show q gain in the Great
East, and it is likely he will, with the
returns which are yet due, lie will come
out with a majority OF a hundred or SO.
This probability is sustained by the yet

CHURCH COSTUMES.

excellent sermon to-day, but what
a horrid dress Minerva Prattle had
on" Does the reader see any con.
nectior between the two clauses Of
the above sentence ? Yet, that hor-
rid dress disturbed the deyotions o.
tho serene Matilda Jane who ut,
tered the above homogeneous re.
mark. Women sometimes, in a pc.
culiar fit of oddncss, may have what
are termed "calico balls" but do
they ever affect calico churches ??
Mo- a church seems especially de.
signed as a dress parade for ladies.

by next Sabbath, or | cannot attend
church" says the fair Matilda Jane,
and when a lady pleads indisposi
ton as an excuse for not attending
worship, there is something wrong
about her dress, at least, such an
inference nine times out of fen
would be correct. 1t takes a very
eloquent passage in a sermon to de-
fleet the eyes of female congroga-
ton from a critical survey of Miss
Such a One as she sweeps rustIing

same time striking us a severe blow
With a "navy six" In the scufIs

the assassin, but was prevented bv
some Of his comrades, who caught
both cur arms. His intention was
evidently to murder US, hence the
time and occasion selected. We bad
passed him several times on the
street during the day, and rode on
the Same street car TO the hotel.
and not one syllable did he saw,
but waited until after dark, and

without any warning whatever,
such an attack could only be made

We may commit to memory, without con

Blessedncss is an old eternity, older thsn
damnation.-[ } can Paul.
The greatest advantage that we gain from
history is the enthusiasm that it begets.
There is nothing terrible in death but that
our life has made it SOL Matthew Henry.
4 beau is everything of woman but tie
sex, and nothing of man beside it,
Fielding.
Mean spirits under disappointment, lille
small beer in thunder storm, always turns
souri, Randolph.
Solitude. silence and the straight keeping
of the heart are the foundation and grounds
of spiritual life Leighton.
Some of the wisest of the race have BEEN
men who have scarcely been beyond hone,
read little, but felt and thought much.
Nature always wears the colors of tie
spirits. To man laboring under calamig,
the heat of his own fire hath sadness in /.
II Emerson.
How can man learn to know himself?
BY observation, never; but by action. En-
deavor to do thy duty and thou shalt known
what is within thee.-GOethe.
Sorrow for sin is not repentance. r.
pentance is a great volume of duty; and
godly sorrow is but the frontispiece or titls-
page; 1t is the harbinger or introduction p
it--[Taylor.
Pathos and humor arc twin children Of
one parent. They spring from one stem
and the truest pathos is akin to fun, and the
best humor suggests something deeper than
itself.
Sorrow is kind of rust of the soul,
which every new idea contributes in its
passage to rcour away. 1t is the petrifaction
of stagnant life, and is remedied by exercise
and motion-[ johnson.
1t is a mans own dishonesty, said Cicero,
his crimes, his wickedness, his audacity, that
takes away from him soundness of mind;
these arc the furies, these are the fire-brands
and flames of the wicked.
Beware how you regard as trifling, faults
which appear of but little consequence.
You weigh them, and think them nothing
but count them; and you will be frightened
at their number.-[St. Augustine.
Of all the marvellous works of the Deity,
perhaps there is nothing the angels behold
with such supreme astonishment as proud
man. Cotton.
