The star. (Cincinnati [Ohio]) 1874-1875, 1875-06-01

created quite q sensation. For quite . =
while afterward you could hear the sub
jects OF freedom and "inalienable rights"
freely and learnedly discussed. Two
classes cared very little for the notice
those who do not get drunk and those
who drink and don't care who knows 1t.
1t was the other class who took 1t moss
to heart.
A discreditable feature Of our town IL
the amount OF fishing done in Paint
creek on Sunday. 1t is a question who
are the most to blame; those who do tho
fishing or the church g0ers who see them
at 1t, but never utter word Of admont-
tion nor institute a prosecution.

LEXINGTON, KY.-The heaviest loser
by the late fire on Limestone street was
Mr.. Gus Clark, the well-known carriage
manufacturer, who has been in that
trade all his life in this city, having suo-
ceeded his father, who was also pOpa-
lar carriage maker here in times past.
Mr.. Clark had no insurance on his cs-
tablishment, which was quite extensive.
Nearly all of his fellow sufferers were
insured. Mr.. Clark's numerous friends
sympathize deeply with him in this the
greatest loss experienced in his business
career.
At five O'Clock yesterday morning thu
stable in the rear OF j. b. Morton's resi-
dence on Upper street was consumed by
fire. No insurance.
CT. Cannon q Co., insurance agents,
report a lively increase in their business
since the late fire. Owing TO the scarcity
of money and the tendency to over :"
omze many OF our Older and weli-so.do
c,lizans lz nave r-..,ed to keep up their Id.
suranc. policies, but the recent terrible
c0nhaxfatlon has l0osened their purso
! atrings, hence the activity among insur-
ance men.
The jury in the Collins case for shoot
ing Higgins in March 1874, were out two
days and could not agree. Seven stood
for conviction and i've for acquittal.
They were discharged and the prisoner
| held TO tail for another trial.
Rev. DR.. Reed delivered u remarkabia
anu lengthy discourse in the Hill-s rect
NJ. Il. Churcn on Sunday nurning from
| the 10Th and 10Th verses Of the 4th cs a. pter
OF Hebrews. Referring to the Aaron o
Priesthood mentioned in these verses.
the Rev. speaker thought ''there was mp
such office since the death of Jesus. He
had nothing to- say against thvse LHrIs-'
tians who Still retained the altar and
Priesthood" Seldom have we heard a
sermon on this and Kindred subjects 50
entirely devoid OF sectariaaism as this
was. In the progress Of mis- sermon.
which lasted over an hour, the speaker
would at times become very eloquent on
The angelic scenery in Heaven "whero
these blessed spirits are basking in thb
sunshine of glory" Then 'Iheir ire
deemable fall whom Jesus himself could
not redeem" 'The grand ocean and
placid lake were pictured in the suu-
shine OF lovely morning as being nutn.
ing compared with the tear hat trlckied
down The cheek OF the Savlofat the tomb
OF Lazarus"
The entire congregation seemed spell
bound with the eloquent, poetic anu
classic language frequently INDUCED in
while illustrating the different topics
into which the sermon was divided. II
was a happy contrast to the materialism
and unbelievIng sentiments that a per.
son is accustomed to near in The law
yers' Offices and public resorts in Lex.
Ina ton, where presumptious men are al
ways tnding fault with the religious
teachings OF their neighbors without ever
attempting remedy or suggesting an
Improvement.
1t is said that some of our Lexington
lawyers have impaired their vision by
tine daily reading OF the Beecher trial.
In Judge Mulligan's Court yesterday
Dudley Locke was fined " and costs Tor
drunk and annoying; Michael NeaviEe
was unSu 20 anu cUStS lOf lying QTu0kS
Sally Jackson and John Thomps on, tined
costs of prosecution on the charge of
fOrnication.
Owing to the unusually large amount
of business pending before The Record
er's Court it was necessary to appoint
Deputy Clerk for that tribunal. Oh FRI
day morning James b. Lloyd was, ON
motion OF the City Clerk, sworn in as his
deputy.
DR.. j. K. Morton complains that Tue
STAR does hlm injustice in the matter IL
widening Short street. The doctor says
che has no personal interest in the pro-
posed improvement beyond the ge enerxl
good to the whole city," He is consid-
cradle taxpayer, but has no property
that would be materially benefited by
the widening OF the narrow street. Aud
that he 'sdoes suggest remedies when
ever he complains oi public wrongs.r
Elder McGarvey, in his discourse ON
Sunday evening in the Broadway Chris
tian Church, said: "The Jewish reti-
gion. once SO glorious among the tribes
OF lsraeI,sis fastlosing its hold upon tiss
Jewish people, many of whom are tend
ing to intidehty and some to atheism.
He declared "the earth would be con-
sumed by fire, but did not know what
would be done with IL after"
