HOTEL ARRIVALS.


There were indications Of rain yesterday. The
following lines from the Galaxy for November
sre appropriate as explaining our condition:
For rain. for rain the parched lands cry,
HeproachfuI To the clOadless sky.
The hot white fields in light are blinking,
The rivers in their beds arr shrinking.
For rest. FOR rest the weary cry
That watch from dark to dawn the SKI;
little sleep their limbs are craving,
A little rest from ceaseless raving.
God gives in His good time the rain
And sends the sick man peace for pain;
But while We wait His gracious sending,
Alas, the sad days seem unendlng.

THE METHODIST MINISTER'S.

ADDRESS ON CITY EvANGELIZATIoN-MooDY
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. METHoDIsM
Yesterday, instead OF a discussion or an ordinary
prayer meeting the Rev. E. II. Adams d. D., deliv-
cred an address 'City Evangcuzation" The meet
ing crowded, and great interest was manifested
The address of very plain and practical sort II
took tho ground that Methodsm has the machinery,
the ability and the doctrines peculiar to the evangelical
ton of the world. And If the machinery was put
In motion, the Doctor believed Mcthodism could
take the world for Christ in ten years He wanted
Bible the class and prayer meetings pastoral
tations by the minister's and more Christian work dono
by presiding elders The pastor could easily make 900
calls in yearnot calls TO take tea or to talk about
the weather, the family, tho crops anything else but
Jesus The presiding elder could gather tho preachers
together and hold religious meetings in neglected
places, and the discipline expects him TO do this But
while the machinery itself good, unless has the
power TO move IL is worthless. A locomotive is fine
Thing to look at but locomotive on a highway with
out the motive power TO drive IL would be unmiti-
gated nuisance. Methodism is grand system to look
at and to contemplate but dead Methodist church s
the greatest nuisance that this world could have; and
he would be glad to assist at the burial OF such. Mr.
Moody's success the Doctor thought based the
fact that he uses od-fashioned Methodist machinery
The peculiar doctrines Of Methodism referred by Dr.
Adams free grace, the witness OF the Spirit and
holiness OF heart. These were enough to charm and
capture the world for Christ But preachers and peo
Pile wanted the fire aud power of God in their souls
Dr. Adams when he referred 10 the witness of tho
Spirit by which man may know that his sins for
given him, paused moment and asked HIS brethren
II they knew what tho Spirit was and spontaneously the
body of ministers present started and sung the OF
hymn
NY God Is reconced,
His pard' ming voice hear sc.
The meeting resolved to continue this topic next
Monday morning Bishop Peck expressed himself
greatly benefited by the address, and Bishop Foster.
who also present agreed to address the ministers
two weeks hence. The committee appointed to con.
slider the feasibility Of holding union revival meetings at
different points the city not ready report but
expect TO be next Monday. They held meeting yester
day afternoon consider the matter moro fully.

FSATAL AFFEAY BETWEEN OHARLEs NANLEy
AND HUGH -CARRIG-KIELBD BY BLOW
FROM THE FIST.
The Courier-Jo urnal of Monday contains
the following additional dstails.of tho kill
ing of Carrig by Marley: Yesterday
about noon Hugh Carrig, an Irishman,
who lives in West Union, New Albany. was
passing along the road in front of Ringle-
backs saloon, in that place, when some
boys began calling him nlcknanes.
Csrrig stopped and went mp to
| the crowd, and accused a negro named
Charles Manley with the 0lense. Marley
denied calling hina the names, and some
words ensued, when Manley struck Carrick
heavy blow in the jaw, telling him, his
head striking against a curb stone, killing
him almost instantly. Alter the terrible
deed, Manley ran OFF towards the Jefferson
vile and New Albany railroad, in the d.
rection of his sisters, who live in that vicinity
He was followed soon afterward by two
officers, who, however, failed to take the
right rosie, and therefore did not capture
him. In the meantime, Chief of Police
Bounds heard of the difficulty, and, pro-
surfing mule, started in hot
taking the negro just as he was
entering his sisters house. He called on
him to halt, but he ran around the house
with the intention Of going over the back
fence. Bounds, however, was too quick for
him, and came Up to the negro and arrested
him, He took BIN to the railroad, and
