Finding His Level.

The San Francisco papers tell story of
Miss Dlckie Hngard's late escape from a
bad marriage with bad man, 7. NJ. Daw-
son, who was once the pastor of Presbyte-
rian church in Brooklyn. There was trouble
in the usual way. and Dawson went west.
He kept going till he found himself on he
Pacifio coast. He clung to the ministry
and managed to get pastorate in Oakland.
He clung to his old habit of loying unwise-
ly and too much. He took en- new habits
OF gambling in stocks, and became involv-
ed in two ways which would have disgrace
ed him in his sanctuary if his private en-
terprises aud activities had been known to
men. More trouble iu the usual way He
resigned his pastorate to avoid public ex
posure. and turned his face towards the
Sandwich Islands where he proposed to
utilize his energies on a sugar plantation.
Under another name he hoped to build up
a reputation and fortune, and that's the
reason why the name of Dawson did not
appear on the passenger list of the vessel
on which he sailed. He turned over new
leaf and commenced fresh chapter of life.

BOWEN GETS UPON Stills.

New YORK, Nov. l3.-Mrs. Emma G.
Morlton, last evening, served paper UP
on Thos g. Shearman as clerk of Ply
mouth church in which Mrs. Moulton calls
upon Plymouth church to join with her in
calling a council of churches, before which
the action of Plymouth church in dropping
her name from its roll may be brought. In
case her request is not granted within four
weeks she states that she must ask coun-
Gil without the cooperation of Plymouth
church.
1t was stated yesterday that meeting
of the committee appointed by the New
York and Brooklyn Association of Congreg-
ational ministers to inquire into the cases
which were brought before courts, would be
called in the course of few days.
A prominent Congregational clergyman
said yesterday that the recent action OF
Plymouth church in dropping the names
Mrs. Moulton and Deacon West from the
roll of membership may result in a cal
on the part of the churches for mutu;
council and for an &C pdrte examination il
case the former should be refused by Ply.

Henry G. Bowen was called upon yester
day by reporter in reference to a state
ment that movement was being set CT
foot by some members of Plymouth church
to have his name dropped from the roll Of
membership. In the course ofthe conver
sation Mr.. Bowen said: IF plymouth
church has anything against me am here
to answer and have been ready to do 81
ever since the controversy began, | hav'
done nothing which am either sorry fo

wise people in the church should make

where illegal votes and irregular returns
are reported. He is confident that he has
received majority of the legal votes cast
in the state, and his known energy and
pluck k will be manifested in unearthing all
the facts.
The Republicans know that from 400 to
600 of the reported majority for Luding
ton in the northwestern counties is fraudu-
lent. and hence they are claiming that he
has 1000 or 1900 majority, so that they
can adult the frauds if exposure renders
it necessary, and still claim that he is
ahead.
Gov. Taylor will return to Madison on
tonight, and the investigation will be pros
ecuttd with vigor in all directions. 1t is
believed that facts enough will be brought
out before the official canvass, to show that
the returns from Barron, Burnett, Polk
and Trempeleau are fraudulent.

we think there were but few, if any, Chris
