WESTCHESTER.

The latest novelty in the village Of West Farms
Is a converted stage driver, expounding the way
of salvation to Interested audiences one of the
churches OF that place.
The LADIES' Local Visiting Committee for the
County PO0rhouse are endeav0ring to induce the
Board OF Supervisors to adopt measures for the
removal OF the few young children now remaining
in that institution.
During the past year $50 actual residents Of the
county have been compelled to seek aid at the
County Poorhouse. The number OF transient pau :
pers applying for assistance IN the county was
1880, against $40 applicants for charity during the
previous year. To account for this startling In
crease in the number OF "tramps" puzzles even
the Oldest inhabltant.
From the reports of the Supervisors 1t appears
that the total debt OF the twenty-five towns now
composing the county So ia, O2s H. against last
years assessment roll Of s5s.5 474, thus making
the rate per cent OF debt to the assessed valuation
OF As. The total Indebtedness Of the county has
been reduced nearly 100000 since April l, 1874
and at the same period Of the present year 1t Ia
confidently estimated that an additional reduc-
ton OF fifty per cent over that sum will have been
erected.
AS there are over sixty paupers now in the
County POorhouse from the towns lately annexed
to New York, the committee OF the Board OF
Supervisors, on the report OF the superin tendents
OF the poor, have recommended to that BODY that
some measures be taken TO relieve the county Of
the cost OF further supporting them. TO this end
II Is probable that an effort Will be made to
either remove the paupers indicated to the New
pay for their continued maintenance IN their
present OuarterS.

THE ANTI-TAMMANY MOVEMENT.

From the Buffalo Courier (dem.) Jan. 81
However the problems confronting the demo-
cratic Legislature may find solution, there Is no
doubt the Tammany leaders have needlessly
endangered their programme by the action in
caucus OF rhe New York Assemblymen elect as
announced few days ago. In saying this we are
not calling in question the right OF the metropoli-
tan members to agree among themselves as to o
course OF action. II is simply the policy and ex-
pedlency OF doing as they did which now seems to
be IN doubt That the announcement OF the Tam
many legislative estate" mas elected q good deal
OF Indignation throughout the State 1t Is useless to
deny. whether the Keeling aroused will CRYSTALLINE
into any formidable opposition to the New York
programme remains to be seen. Every
true democrat, in the State and out of 1t, viii
regret the precipitation at this time OF difference
SO unnecessary ana mischievous. At juncture
when the success OF the democratic party IN the
next Presidential election depends on the intel
ligence and elevated patriotism OF It's action and
on Its bringing forward, without regard TO lesser
considerations, Its men OF highest character and
most commanding innuence-at such a juncture,
we repeat anything looking like selfish conflict
OF factions Is in the last degree untimely. We
trust that the meeting to-day win take this view
OF the situation, and determine that whatever
local or individual interest may suffer- the welfare
and dignity OF the democracy, now ON trial before
the people, shan not be imperllled.

The Somerset press. [volume] (Somerset, Ohio) 1873-1977, 1875-04-02

1t was decreed by the Council of Nice
A. D. 325), that Easter should always
be celebrated on the Sunday which fol-
lows the full moon that happens upon
or next. after the vernal equinox, the
vernal equinox being fixed in the civil
calendar as the 21st of March. Here
are some curious observations on this
anniversary:
off the 21st of March should occur
on Saturday, and it should also hap
pen to be full moon on that day. then
the next day Sunday, March 22d would
be Easter, and this is the earliest day in
the year on which Easter can ever hap
pen. But suppose that the vernal
equinox March 21st) shonld occur on
Sunday, and that the moon should be
at the full on that day, then Easter can
not come until the Sunday after the
next following full moon, and this latter
event being twenty-nine days in the fu-
ture, it must fall upon the 18th OF
April, which would in the above case
happen upon Monday, and the next
Sunday would be the 25th of April
This last mentioned date april 25th) is
therefore the latest date upon which the
Easter Festival can occur From this
it will be seen that Easter Sunday, ac.
cording to the accepted modes of CON-
putation, based upon the civil calendar
date for the vernal equinox, and the age
of the moon at the time of the equinox
can happen upon any of the dates be-
tween the 22d day of March and the
25to day of April. but no earlier thar

methods of computation-by the Greg

The Beecher Case-Dr. Talmage
Raves Against Newspapers for
Publishing the Evidence.

TCorrespondent Cincinnati Commercially
Brooklyn, March 1S.-Dr. Talmage,
the pulpit orator of Brooklyn, has got
disgusted with the developments of the
Beecher trial. He raves against the
newspapers for printing the evidence,
and prophe>ies ruin and damnation to
the editors who print it. A queer com
mentary on his state of mind is the fact
that he himself has repeatedly been in
attendance at the trial ] first became
aware of his presence one morning
when he got into my place, and nearly
crowded me out of my seat in his ankle
ty to get prominent position Now,
he breaches against all papers which
publish the news of the trial. Among
other things, he says:
"Down at our Court house, day after
day, there is uncovered the corpse of an
abomination vaster in its blight than
Sodom ever knew. 1t is not corpse
two or three days lingering, waitings,
for Christian burial, but for eight
months, since last midsummer, it has
been rottlng in the face of the sun, and a
thousand pens are stirring it up, and a
thousand gibbets are lifting it up on ex-
hibition, and the printing presses are
cntting up the loathsome carcass and
making it into mince meat fer a
savory repast, morning, noon and night;
and as the periodicals don't turn it out
fast enough to satisfy the public appetite,
they had to publish it in book-form, SO
that we can carry it about with us for a
lunch between the morning breakfast
and the evening supper of putridity.
Brooklyn to-day eats scandal, drinks
scandal, talks scandal, swears scandal,
lies scandal, sleeps scandal, and from
Fulton Ferry to Bushwick, and from
Gowanus to Hunters Point, the city is
paved with scandal and recks with scan
dal, until one is tempted to go over to
the Five Points to get breath of pure
air. lSensation.l There are FIVE thou
sand carrion crows which alight every
morning at IL o'clock, on the top of the
Court House and stay there until 4
o'clock in the afternoon, and these car
rion crows fly North, South, East, West,
with an exultant cav, cav, caw.' Zap
plause.1 Eternal God, when will this
surging, groaning, stupendous, over
whelming nastiness come to an end?
The city needs thorough fumigation.
VIII somebody burn a rag, laughter ]
or carry about a shovel and lighted
charcoal for the stockholders of newspa-
pers, which build themselves up on such
hell-broth. I prophesy eventual bank
ruptcy or domestic ruin or discontinue
in the world to come, or all three. God
will be even with you in some way
Money made by the publication of these
perpetual, pestiferous indecencies will
in the end, be not only death to those
who read them. but death to those who
print them. God will get it away from
you if he has to chase you into hell fol
it. Waiting for no other man to do hi
duty, let us do ours. Kick the inferna
stuff out of your house." [Applause.
