THE New York Tribune Gays that the
pulpit ministratIons in that city on Sun
day were somewhat aggressive, the Pro-
testant Episcopal Church being the main
battle ground The Rev. w. 7. SABINE,
rector of the Church OF Atonement,
whose refusal to bury GEORGE HOLLAND,
the actor, from his Church, called forth
much criticism several years ago, an
nounced his determination to leave the
Protestant Episcopal Church, and OK
planned his reasons to his congregation in
An elaborate sermon. In his opposition TO
certain portions of the prayer book and to
the exclusiveness of the IN inority Of thai
Church he follows closely in the steps OF
Biahop Gu ArMINs, and it is probable that
he will soon join the Reformed Episcopal
Church. The Rev. Dr.. S. Il. TYING, Jr.,
In a sermon on 1.-The cooperation of Chris
tian Churches" defined his position in the
extreme evangelical wing of the Protest
ant Episcopal Church. st. Johns Guild,

AS AN instance of the effect of heat and
cold IN expanding and contracting the
iron Of the dome Of the national Capitol,
1t is stated that the colossal statue sur
mounting it inclines four and half inches
10 the west in the forenoon. and the same
distance to the east in the afternoon
This fact has been ascertained by fixing a
plumb line to the statue and dropping ii
to the rotunGa below. As the morning
sun upon the east side Of the dome heated
the iron and caused an expansion on the
side of the statue it was thrown westward
four and a half inches. In the afternoon
when the sun upon the west side heated
and expanded that part of the dome, the
statue inclined to the east similar dis
lance.

Editors Of the IntellIgeneer.
1 have recently seen a letter in your
paper from this county, written by some
one signing himself "Perambulator,
which in some of its statements does in
justice to our people. will admit tnst
there is much to criticise, much to make
fun of, if you please, in this region, but 1t
is nevertheless true that Wetzel county
and Wet1el people are rising in the scale
of progress. Our people are not out OF
the woods, fguratively speaking, as re-
sDects ignorance and unthr1tt1ness, Out

setting in. In regard to the still houses
OF which your correspondent speaks, |
know nothing about them, although
have lived here for years. never knew
of but one still house, and that was not in
operation. My associations have not
been such as to lead me into hunt
for still houses, and this may be
an advantage that "Perambulator"
enjoys over me- He may be right in
classifying ignorance and Democracy to-
gether in Welzel. Not claiming to be a
Democrat, will not argue the point with
him further than to say that some of our
most intelligent citizens belong to that
party. In regard to religion and religious
prosperity, it seems to be dull just at this
time, but am not prepared to admit the
truth of "Perambulator's" remarks about
protracted meetings. am, however,
sorry to say that tor some time such meet
ings have had rather beggarly success as
compared with former days. There was
a time when the people seemed to have
more confidence in the Superintendent of
these meetings, and when ministers, trav
cling and local, seemed to work harder
to gather in the people to the fold; when
the word was preached in the spirit, and
was backed by power, and sinners were
convicted and converted, and Zion pros
pered. Politics were not then the themes
OF the ministers, as unfortunately has
been the case too much in these latter
days. SO you SEQ that while in some re-
spects we have made progress, yet in
others we seem to have gone little back
Wards. Still, on the whole, Weizel COun-
ty shows an encouraging progressive ten

THE discussion OF the cremation ques-
ton in England has led to another propo'
sition tor disposal OF the dead. A writer
in one Of the Manchester papers suggests
"squstion," as he calls it, or the burying
OF the dead lar out at sea. BE concludes
thus: "There is no violence here. The
idea is maritime, and we are maritime
people. The cost would be little, the
mode reverent, the effect sanitary, the
condition natural. Scripture would be
satisfied and the philosophers contented.
OF course, 1 say not word about the

THE AGRICULTURAL WEALTH AND

THE AGRICULTURAL WEALTH AND
STRENGTH OF THR CoUNTRY.-The ag-
ricultural wealth of the American Union
is the broad and enduring basis of It's ma,
tional strength.
Its agricultural population OF 5,922, All
in 1870 had created and acquired pro-
perty in agricultural wealth valued al
$11,124, 958, TAI, showing an average value
of $l.97s per head, yielding a net yearly
income of $780,
Every million added to that agricul-
tural population will consequently add at
least 81. 678,OoO00O to the national
wealth.
The present yearly increase in this pop
ulAtion being 80 ASP, an additional 1DOOO,-
900 will be gained every thirteen years.
These additional millions will be ur-
gently needed, and Gun be readily sup
Piled by Europe from time to time and
from age TO age, 10 enable the American
Union TO produce and export the Vegeta-
bic and animal products to feed and the
cotton to clotLe the large and steadily
increasing population of Europe.
The tsn InttIior States north OF the
Ohio river and On the upper lakes and
upper Mississippi! and Missouri produced
in The year 1870 812, ISL 1925 bushels OF
cereals, weighing more than 100000
OF tons avoirdupois. By the close of the
present century, twenty-six years hence,
these States will probably produce an
nually 100000 and perhaps $4,000 600

The Beecbpr Scandal.

The loss of a great individual reputation is,
like the loss Of 4 large property, damaging to
Il country. 1t can not be afforded We
therefore hear of the discredit to Henry Ward
Beecher with serious regret. 1t may be
asked why Mr. Beechers friends, such as
Leonard Bacon, and others of Plymouth
Church. We're so anxious to preclpitate an in
vestigation by their attacks upon Theodore
Tilton as a calumniator of Mr.. Beecher. This
brought forth Tilton in self-detense, and
ruined the Pastor Of plymouth Church
We suspect Indeed we have pretty good
assurances for saying that Bacon and his set
belong to a Puritan element in the church
which is really opposed TO Beecher, and would
be glad to get rid of him account Of his
liberal Christianity. They therefore forced on
an investigation of which they knew he was at
heart afraid We cannot say that Mr.. Tilton S
action is in entire accordance with the highest
principles of honor. For four years, it seems
he condoned his w1tes otfense, and took no
steps to avenge her or his honor.
The offense of Beecher against him he was
willing should be atoned for by the humilia-
ting private letter he received from him, but
when his velacity was doubted by Beecher's
supposed friends he declares he can keep
silence no longer. Thus. Titon forthwith
puts his individual character above the honor
Of his wife. Certainly that is not the esti-
mate Of mankind upon such questions. Most
men would suffer the loss of veracity in
preference to making public the loss of their
wives virtue. Cincinnati Ea1uirer

The Changes in the Bank
rupt Court.
No More Universal Assignee.

We feel somewhat in the condition of the little
boy who fired off his gun in fright at the noise of
passing deer, and killed it. Our good luck at
Norton's departure exceeds all our preconceived
ideas Of the good fortune in store for our people.
Naturally We had come to the conclusion that
even if the Universal Assignee did depart, his
power would still be felt through the illimitable
power Of the Vicegerent Durell: but we discov-
cred since the exodus that a change has come

more does the Universal come in for his lion 8

In several bankrupt estates lately surrendered
the creditors actually had the privilege of

their votes for assignee. There was a maidenly
coyishness in their manner, sort of feeling that
they might be trespassng somebody's rights,
and vet they went into it with what might be called
daring intrepdty. Could Norton have looked in
en- the scene he would have smiled one of his
ghastly grim smiles and regretfully turned his
head away thinking Of his faded honors.
Notwithstanding this, however, Norton is hav-
ing good time this summer. His model farm in
PENNSYLVANIA with its Durhams, Hertfortlshires
and Cotswolds, occupies most OF his time when
he is not rubbing down that wprn-out old road
