THANKSGIVING SERvICEs.-There will be
preaching at Wesley Chapel Methodist Epis.
copal Church ON Thursday at 3 and P. M,
by the pastor. Rev. James Gould. The
church is situated on Liberty street, be-
tween Poydras and Psrdido.
Thanksgiving services will be held at the
st. James African Methodist Episcopal
Church, on Roman street. Preaching at
half past ten o'clock Thursday morning by
Biehop T. NJ. d. Ward, assisted by Rev,
George Dardis and Rev. G. w. Bryant
The public are invited to attend.
I1EANs.-The poor, almost dying. outraged,
ahot, cut and mutilated woman, Eliza Pink
stOn, whose story before the Returning
Board yesterday made every white man,
except one or two of the Democratic coun-
sci, blush for the shame of the atrocities of
his race, is not yet out of danger. Though
che run for her life, and rode q horse six
miles to save it, even though traitor to
her race had cut the tendons of her ankles
and those who shoull have protected her
had drawn more blood from her than their
hearts could hold, still che is not
let alone. In her residence, last night
after testifying, she was visited by
the brother of the man who treated her
most cruelty, and two other white men, her
life again threatened, weapons drawn, and
again she sprang from her bed; and this
time, it being in the second story, ran down
stairs and took refuge in the kitchen. The
poor girl who was waiting on her, who has
been herself whipped, was threatened, and
perhaps both would have been killed, but
an alarm Of police was called on the out
side, and the three assassns escaped.
1t remains to be seen if the same acts can
be perpetrated in New Orleans as in the
Island arden of Ouachita.
The CHARGE Is MURDER.-ThomasL Lyons,
of Ouachita parish, was last evening ar
rested on Poydras street, on q warrant held
by Detective Pearson, for the killing of
Henry P.nkston. The accuser is the widow
of deceased, and the crime was committed
in the parish Of Ouachita, on the fourth of
November last. The prisoner, when searched
at police headquarters, had a revolver con-
cealed ON his person. which also stands
against his name.

Speak checrfully, but reverently and
solemnly, 10 them Of the righteousness Of

tell them lie is their judge. Show them
Ills face OF compassion; show them His

that, for His goodness sake, He will
sweep those who do not hate them finally

particular kind Of gus, with burner Of
peculiar construction, the learned pro-
lessor produces. lighted jet of fame
nearly two feet in height, extremely mar
row, and 80 exquisitively sentative to
sounds that 1t sings and dances VI and
down in response to everything that is
sung or said, with different degrees of sem
slbllity for different vowel sounds. 1.-THE
slightest tap on distant anvil reduces its
height to seven inches. When bunch
OF Keys is shaken the fame is violently
agltated and emits loud roar. The
dropping of sixpence into hand already
containing coin, at a distance of twenty
yards, knocks the flame down. 1t is not
possible To walk across the floor without
agitatiug the flame. The creaking of
boots sets it in violent commotion. The
crumpling or tearing OF paper or the rustic
OF a silk dress does the same. 1t is startled
by the patter of a rain-drop. l hold a
watch near the flame; nobody hears its
ticks, but you all see their effect upon the
flame; al every tick it falls and roars.
The winding up Of the watch also pro-
duces tumult. The twittering Of dis
tant sparrow shrieks in the flame; the
note OF cricket would do the same. A
chirrup from a distance of thirty yards
causes ii to fall and roar" In reference
to the power OF the. flame to respond to
poetry, the lecturer said: "The flame
selects from the sounds those to which it
can respond; it notices some by the
slightest nod, to others it bows more dis.
tinctly, to some its obeisance is very pro.
found, while to many sounds it turns an
entirely deaf ear'
So long as the cause of any unusual
sound is unexplained to the non scientific
listener he is apt, naturally enough, to
term that sound mysterious; but the clc-
ment Of mystery will disapper when he is
assured that sounds of every description
are due to natural and unalterable acoustic
principles. -Chambers' Journal.

Come Just as You Are.


In one of his recent sermons ut the
Hippodromc in New York, Mr.. Moody
said: '.9t N
There are a great MANY men that want
to come, and they say, "Wait until am
better man, and then ! will come" l
never knew man to be saved that came
to Christ in that way. You cannot
cleanse yourselves Every day and hour
that you are staying from Christ you arc
getting worse instead OF better. The very
act of your staying away Is sin, and so,
instead Of trying To get better, and get
ready TO come, just come rs YOU are and
be clothed with the garments of salvation.
He will cloihe you with His own right
eousness. noticed when our war was
going on men used to come 10 enlist, and
the man who came with a fine suit of
clothes on, and the hod -carrier In his
dirty garments, would both have to take
Off their clothes and put on the uniform
of the Government. And so when men
go into the Kingdom of God they have to
put on the livery Of Heaven You need
not dress up for Christ, because He will
strip you when you come, and put on you
the robes Of His righteousness. My
friends, you cannot stand before God
in your own righteousness. Come
to God as poor beggar and He
will have mercy upon you.

Hear the holy Sabbath bells
Christian bells!
What world Of consolation In their utterancei
dwells!
They commemorate the Day
When the stone was rolled away
From the Sepulcher," where lay
vrhs Lord OF Glory slain for sin not His own.
There He bursts the bonds of Death
.tfr With Omnipotence'a breath,
And majestically rose,
Triumphant Ger His foes,
To the right baud of God-Three in One
Where He maketh intercessioD
For our manifold transgression,
Eyermore
Now the bells are loudly calling, bidding every
one repair
To the sanctuary where
We may offer praise and prayer;
Their reverberating echoes. through the circum
~ amb. ent air,
Are rolling, rolling, rolling,
They arc calling calling, calling,
In tones that are consoling,
And in tones that are appalling
To believers, consolation;
To the scorners, condemnation,
Evermore!
Still the bells are toing, tollng,
And their echoing notes are rolling
Over vale and plain and mountain,
Calling all men 10 the Fountain
Whence lie, and JOY, and peace, are how1ng ever
more,
Evermore
Now their tones grow louder, deeper,
They might wake the dulest sleeper
On this peaceful Sabbath morning
With their word OF solemn warning

Their ponderous tongues reiterate monotonously
"Time!

RTCHANAN'S ATTORNEY GEN.
ERAI. INCITING a REVOLT
TION.

In The dispatches of October Is from
Chicago we find the following:
There was an informal aeetipg Of
leading Democrats at the Ebbit Houss
this evening, to discuss what policy is
| best to adopt to meet this revolutionary
| move of Grant upon South Carolina.
Judge Jere Black was the principal
spokesman. A plan was preached and
approved, which will be perfected to-
morrow, namely: To telegraph TO Wade
Hampton and his followers to perempt
leave the Republican ticket without any
opposition. Then the Democratic
House will not allow the vote of South
Carolina to be counted next February
upon the ground of it's illegally. Army
officers here. familiar with the Hancock
force, say that at the expiration of three
days, mentioned in the proclamation,
General Ruger will have 10000 men at
hir disposal. If this is not enough
more will be furnished.
We are glad to be assured that Gen.
Ruger is going to have so many troops
at his command, for we suspec: that he
will need them all. AS to old Jerry
Black and his reasonable advice, We
doubt if il is acted on. He wants to
have Hampton and the rest o: the South
Carolina rebels assume to be driven out
of the field by Federal bay
onets-he wants them to seem to be
persecuted-wants them TO play the role
of martyrs to the cause of civil govern
ment. Meantime Hampton &, Co.. will
canvass the subject, aud If they see their
way clear 10 scare the colorel people out
Of their political rights, and il they are
encouraged 70 believe that they can sue
coed in legainiag power il South Caro-
liza, they will snap their fingers at old
Jerry's ruse, and keep right Oh with
their capv:ss. What Black advises is
III the line OF revolution. /. may be
possible that the vote Of South Carolina
will elect Hayes and Wheeler Such a
Contingency is not al all likely, but it l.
possible. We do no. believe that the
people Of the North would quietly sub.
init to the act of usurpstion AID rebel
tyranny suggested to The present House
of personalities by this hoafy traitor.
If they should, they would prove them
selves more patient people, more
ready to acquiesee in an act Of asrgpa-
lion aud wrong than We now believe
hem to be.

MORE SILVER COIN.

Germany is suffering from her own
mistaken policy of having demone;izsd
silver. Now she feels tie need Of more
com and Il is said that the Ee,'
Parliament will be asked 10 increase The
amount of the silver coinage of the En-
pire. This means that the business in-
ferests of Germany are suffering for
want of silver. A commercial necessity
is always very grave necessity. The
bankers, the merchants, the grea. man.
ufacturers, the ship builders. the miners.
the army and the navy, oil the vast in
serests OF Kaiser Williams Empire need
this increase. There is little Doubt bn.
the asked for measures will be adopted.
The remonetizins of silver by Germany
will be o very efficient aid to those
American statesmen who are working to
return silver to its place in the money
market and make it assume it's inst
value in relation to our public debt. il
is an i'll wind which blows nobody any
good; and it may be that the Turkish
war may come as blessing to our mer-
chants and ship owners; and that Ger
many's needs may reopen market for
our silver and help Us to perfect the sys-
tenn Of legislation wisely advocated in
his mastery speeches on finance by
Senator Jones.
