A MirncuIou. Ieccoycry.

A young lady of Harrisburg, Miss.
Minnie Ii. Walters, spoke in one Of the
prayer meetings of the Oakvillc (Pa.)
camp meeting, relating remarkable
cure, which she attributes directly 10 the.
special interposi,ion Of Christ The.
occurrence, related in detail in private.
conversation, is to the effect that over
two years ago she was afflicted with n
spinal disease so serious that she could
scarcely move finger, and she was con-
fined to couch purposely suited for tho
disease. Nearly two years ago she
became convinced that she needed clos
er conservation 10 Christ, in other
words, she desired the blessings Of sane
tifcation, so prominent in the Methodist
belief. She prayed earnestly without
avail. Something seemed 10 tell her
that conservation of body as well as soul
was required, and il was revealed 10 her
that she would be healed. Thirteen
months passed and no result. On the
26th Of January last she once more re.
solved 10 pray more earnestly for the
fulfllment of tho revelation. While
praying the promise came 10 her, yhat
soeYer thou wilt, ask and il shall DO
given. She pray ed first for heart pur-
ity, and next for bodily health. Tho
words, "Rise up and walk, and TO her
great relief she found herself in apparent
health. The doctor next morning found
her restored TO health without need of
medical attendance. Her statement
was corroborated by four other persons
acquainted with the circumstances, who
rejoiced with her over her restoration to
health, which she unwaycring'y believes
to have resulted from the stretching
forth for Cbrist's hand in reward for her
faith

cVhy was not the angel more polite 7
Why did not he coolly and formally in
yite Lor and his wife to leave that city :?
The angel, so far from that, seized hold
4ot him, pulled him out, pushed him on
with irresistible force. The angel was
yin earnest. Oh, does not the world,
looking upon us and seeing our cold
ness, come to the conclusion that we do
not believe what we say? If unpardon-
cd men were in such peril as the Bible
says they are, and we believe it, would
we be such precisionists, so cold, and
stolid, and unemotionals Suppose a
blind man were on rail-track, and you
saw a train coming, would you SO up
to him and say: my dear friend, q
machine commonly called a locomotive,
invented by James Watt, is making
very rapid revolutions towards the place
where you are, and unless YOU change
YOUR course of pedestrianism, it will be
soon decided which of the two is the
stronger T. Would youdo that p All
no; men are not so stolid about temper
al peril. You would cry: "Ga out Of
the woy! The cars are coming" And
yet when it is spiritual danger we use
so much circumlocution, and so much
caution, and come with so timid tread
: towards the place where men are I'M
perilled, that they actually don't believe
we think there is peril, although there
are spiritual and eternal disasters COM
ing on in long trains, flying as swiftly
as the hours, swiftly as the minutes,
swiftly as the seconds, ready to crush
forever. 1t we realized it, would not
we stamp our foot, and cry:
OMAN, IMMORTAL, LOOK OUT FOE ETER-
NIrY!'
If there be no danger in rejecting
Christ, we might as well drop our anx-
iety; but if there is danger, let us cry
the alarm. The world knows at this
day that we profess the faith of Christ,
standing in our prayer meetings, sun
day-schools, and pulpits, act as if reli-
gion were fiction. Oh for something
OF the urgency of the angel that came
TO LOT; not coolly discussing with him
the chemical properties OF the storm
that was coming, but laying hold Of
him with both hands, pulling him on
pushing him out, and crying with au
emphasis that must have sent him At
the top of his speed: '.Escape for thy
lite; look not behind thee, neither stay

A II ridal Trip-Bererc and Aftcr.

The Cumberland Ne,rs, of the 18th
inst, tells the following ofa verdant
young couple, which We think well
worth republishing:
A great many funny stories are told
of verdant country people who go TO
town to "get married" ard We suppose
that most of the incidents related actu-
ally occur-reasoning from case that
came under our observation few ev-
enings since. Immediately after the
arrival of the Sis accommodation train
young man and woman, not magni6-
ciently dressed, entirely unattended,
and rather melancholy looking, upon
the whole, walked into the Office of the
Queen City Hotel, put their baggage
two black carpet-bags) down in tho
corner, the woman mounting guard
over it. The man lounged up to the
counter, and addressing the clerk,
drawled out slowly, abe you the boss
of the tavern" ''Well sir" was the rr-
sponse, Il can wait upon you.'
"Wa'al, l want TO stop over night-that
is me and the gal" "Well, sir" said
the clerk, extending the pen ard push
ing The register toward the guest.
whats that furi' was the astonished
inquiry why, for you to register
your name" What's that 7" Why,
write your names down in that book"
"Oh / amt no scholsrd.' The for
mality Of registering was gone through
with, when ;he couple suddenly disap-
peared. About half past nine they de-
posted their luggage in the same place
as before and went out through tho
employers entrance to the porch in the
rear of the hotel, communicating with the
kitchen. They were not recognized but
were followed by the clerk and watch
man, and were found seated on bench,
in the dark, eating canteloupe. Com
pretending the situation, or thinking
he did, the clerk let them alone. Pre-
seutly they came into the Office and
asked where their room was. The
clerk went with them himself and when
they reached the room, tho man drew
the clerk aside ane whispered, "say
mister we both want 10 60 IN the same
ROOM" "What for I" asked the aston
ished clerk. "Well, deeper whisper)
you see since seen you the last time
we've been married l thought Id tell
you, so you wouldn't think nothiu'
strange" OH" was the remark by the
clerk, who then retired. Some hours
afterward the night-porter was summon
ed to the third floor by ayell from that
part of the hotel, and after great deal
of excited discussion found that bride
and groom were both sick from the Of,
fects of breathing neptha gas-having
blown out beir light in the approved
style of such couples on retiring. For.
tunately the night was warm, and all
the windows were open, or We might
have had tragedy instead Of joke

A SHOUT IN CANAL a Camp
Meeting held at New Freedom, in Penn
sylvania, on Sunday last, Mrs. Van Colt
conducted services; and created quite a
sensation. A correspondent of the Sun
says:
at should be added that the sermon
delivered by Rev. John Poisal, Of the
Methodist Episcopal Church South, on
Friday afternoon last, has given an i'm
petus 10 the meeting which will never
be forgotten. The Rev. Doctor paid a
glowing tribute to his ministerial breth-
rem, of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
and said to the preachers in the stand,
with tears flowing down his cheeks,
"My dear brethren ! belong TO nobody
but Christ. / know no North. no South,
no East, no West-but Christ and my
ministerial brethren, shaking them each
by the hand, and turning to Mrs Van
Colt, said "Sister Van Cott / never
heard you before-God bless you sister. "
Bishop Wayman of the African Meth
odist Episcopal Church, was also seated
in the stand, DR.. Poisal, grasping him
by the hand said, 'tMy dear brother, l
could clasp you to my bosom though
you be black man; yet blessed be God
there is day coming when You and
these brethren and l shall be white
yes, whittier than the beautiful snow. +"
Such a shout as went up from "old
Shrewsbury camp-gronnd" at these trib-
utes paid by the Doctor never was heard
in previous camp-meeting held here.

Run for Your Life.

Escape for thy life; look not behind
thee, neither stay thou in all the pialli }
escape to the mountain, lest thou pe coii-
sumed. Gen. XIX. II.
For the most part. the lakes OF the
earth are the darlings OF the mounsa'n'
their necks garlanded with wiid now
ers and their foreheads flashing In the
Snn. hut there is one lake loathsome and
Cod -forsaken, and exiled from all that
- beantifnl. The modern traveller tnds
il II lies down accursed; no tinged
shs,,s adorn its banks; no fish live in its
S,ercbful waters. The waterfowl, for
the most part, do not fly anywhere near
;ts surface. and the bather comes up out
of it encrusted with the salt and SICK
with the taste of the water. Bitter,
briny, sulphurous, dark, it seems as II
the shadows of past desolation chased
each other across it, and the traveller,
struck through with melancholy, hast
ems from its presence, perhaps taking a
few pieces of nitre and sulphur to show
the barrenness of the place. Where
that lake now spreads ont, thirteen cities
once stood-among them Sodom. 1t
would be objectionable if, in this pres
ence. ] recounted the crimes OF that
CITY. Suffice it to say that the citizens
were SO bad they mobbed an angel that
came dcwn on an errand of mercy. LOT
resolved to leave the city, bnt did not
make much haste He had miles to
travel, and, at the rate in which he was
going, death would have dashed upon
him before he got to the mountains
And so the angel seizes him, pushes
him on, pulls him out, urges him for
ward, crying, in the words Of my text
Escape for thy life; look not behind
thee, neither stay thou in all the plain;
escape to the mountain, lest thou be
consumed" Well,
TIE FATAL DAY CAME.
The morning as bright as ever, perhaps
the citizens, as usual, reckless, unclean,
and blasphemous. What do they care
about their coming doom' There i;

Suddenly there is fame in the sky
and the volcano rocks and upheaves th'
bitumen that underlies all that region
of country, throwing it up to the sur

ately ignites;and amid the falling flame
and the upheaying asphaltum, and the
suffoca,ing stencil of the birthstone, and
the bursting thunder, and the roaring,

Gods wrath, Sodom shrieked its last

THE WoILD WITHOUT SUNDAY
Think how the abstraction of Sunday
would enslave the working classes with
which we are identified. Think of la
Dor going on in one eternal monotonous
and eternal rack; fingers forever strain
ing. The brow forever dropping. the
loins forever aching, and the weary
brain forever scheming. Think of the
beauty it would efface, the merry heart
edness it would extinguish. the strength
it would tame the giant, the resources
of nature it would crush, the sickness it
would bring, ofprojects it would wreck,
the groan it would extort, the lives it
would immediate, the cherries graves it
would prematurely dig. See them toll
ing and fretting, grinding, hewing, wea-
wing and spinning, sowing and reaping,
raising and building, digging and plant
ing, striving and struggling,in the gar
den aud the field, in the granary and in
the barr, in the factory, in the mill, in
tue warehouse and in the shop, in the
mountain, in the ditch, on the roadside
and in the country, out at sea and on
the shore, in day of brightness and of
gloom. What a picture this would
represent il We had no Sabbath.

The Fall Fashion.

1t NAV interest our lady readers to
know that Paris, the head center OF
fashions, has ordered that the most fash
ionable shade for the coming winter is
to be very dark green-that is, tor wax
inc dresses and demi-toilettes. Silver
gray will also be worn. Felt IS to re-
tain the popularity which it acquired
for bonnets last winter. The favort
trimmings will be the ostrich plumes,
small bright-tinted birds, and wings.
The tightly tied-back apron overs kirt is
to lie discharged in favor of very, long
tunics nearly touching the ground in
front, looped up at the sides, and
slightly draped behind. Ladies are no
longer to look like walking umbrella
cases, a certain amount of fullness be-
ing restored to the skirts, and there is
even talk of introducing small-szed
crinaine for the bottom of dresses mere
ly. :.
Cashmere is only to be used for deml-
toilets, costumes and travelling mantles.
Lace, wide silk braid, and fringe, the
latter of silk and chenille, are to be the
favorte trimmings. Jet has vanished
entirely. The new style OF walking
dresses will probably prescribe short
skirts again, for which sensible innova-
ton we unfortunate beings, who have
become worn out with holding up our
heavy-trimmed skirts all spring and
summer long, have reason 10 be thank
full. Out door wraps show a tendency
of return TO the halt-Gtting, jaunty
Jackets of few years back, which had
merit of being adaptable to almost any
figure or style.
