Indications OF Manufacturing
Revival.

From the New York Bulletin Of Monday
We note in our New England and Penu-
sylvania exchanges Iome revival OF bust.
ness among the iron and other manuiac.
turers, with confident antiCipations Of
improving prospects as the season adj
yances. There are many works still ID c,
but nearly II not all Of these instances
are where the strikes OF the employees
prevent increase OF operation. Not only
are the winters quota Of men employed,
but old slack time helps are returning,
and the indications are that there soon
will be plenty Of work, especially in the
iron districts. There is u great draw
back in some sections, owing to the want
Of coal, caused BY the coal miners strikes,
In many Ofthe cotton mills districts these
strikes still exist and interrupt both trade
and industry. 1t is noticeable that
where no strikes Rre in progress full time
is the rule. The wooden mills are not
very active, while the frcshets and ice in
some sections are still preventing re-
sumption Of work. But on the whole
there is as much improvement to note in
manufacturing as in commercial circles,
with a fair prospect that Us soon rs travel
and communication shall become regular,
with an adjustment Of the strikes so that
wOrkingmen, with return To full en-
plOyment, can have the means to pur-
chase more freely the nccessarics OF life,
a substantial revival of these important
industries may DO confidently anticipat-

A Local Itrcnch Of Promise case.

lIINNl INV N'lINNUS .N'WNrI
IN the Circuit Court Of Brooke county,
on Wednesday last, II ease came up which
promiacd To be somewhat exciting a Ia
IIcccher. II appears that Miss Rachel
Taylor, of West Liberty, Ohio county,
brought suit against n Mr.. C.. Il. Hedge,
Of brooke county, for breach Of promise
Of marriage and seduction, claiming ten
thousand dollars damages. The case for
the plaintiff was opened by j. Hanson
Ciood, EsQ, who, in neat and extremely
pointed speech TO the jury, seemed to
have clearly gained this, the first case Of
the kind he ever had The whole time
occupied could not have been over one
hour when II went tn the jury, who In n
few minutes returned verdict tor plain.
tiIT with damages to the amount Of
5000.
ia but just To sny that the defendant
did not put in mn appearance, nor had he
any counsel. All things considered, this
il the most remarkable trial We ever
heard u, occupying but little over one
hour. The absence II tho defendant no
doubt prevented the bringing out II much
nastincss which generally belongs to such
CnIC9.

THERE is money pinch in Canada
Thcexrcmc severity Of the winter has
prevented the farmers IRON marketing
their products, most Of which remain on
their hands, while the money which

legal tcndCrsystcm has been such rs to re.
duco the specie reserve, in the banks,
causing the Government to Withdraw

even where the soundcst currency basis

THE WRITINGS OF THACKERAY.

LECTURE BY PROFESSOR SHEPPARD AT THE
CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH.
Professor Nathan Sheppard delYered the third in his
course OF lectures yesterday afternoon at the Calvary
Baptist church. taking for his subject the writings OF
Thackeray.
To begin the lecturer said will call Thackeray's
school the school OF social satire. He writer who
used fiction as means, not as an end; novelist who
excel in plot but who does excel in satirical
portrature of characters One Of the foundations
fiction is that other means accomplish the same
object Thackerays dialogue is excellent, his charac-
ters talk well; SO he Is not SO dependent on plot
He says he is surprised at of the observations his
characters make This is true of all writing which
writes ITSELF to speak this is perspective in the art
of rhetoric Thackerays satire plays on the surface of
his characters; it is superficial; it is touch which
gives Thackeray kinshp with the French rather than
the English he has not made much success on our
his SATIRE Is TOO QUIET
The elegant nvective of the SATURDAY. Re,iec which
makes John Bull vince, is lost We have not
time to appreciate It. The assortment and classnea-
tion OF society IS what gives the satirst his field.
Thackeray satiriZes the passion for titles one form
OF social vanity, for IL banished a desert
island would not care what called, being
sure we would not be called for dinner Thackeray
worked assiduousy, for he had rough voyage first
He did some feeble work. he was sentimental rather
than cynical satirist His asIdes, which made a
prominent ieatuIe OF ms Wrilngs were very pathetic
and of his pathetic touches are exquisite
carrying far from cynicsm. He seems TO have
written himself into good style OF writing by great
panstaking and for elegant simplicity and simple Gle
