Elected.

After going To press last week news
came announcing that the electors OF
the several states had met aud cast
their ballots. Thu So, on @rair count"
gave Rutherford B. Hayes 1S5 votes
and S. J. Til len 1884, This secures
the election and probable, peac"ablc
Inauguration, of Rutherford Il. Hayes
as our rext President. The only at
tempt made to vitiate their announce
ment was the action of Gov. Grover.
of Oregon. Walls, one OF the Repub-
lican electors, was said 10 be ineliyi-
lie from the fact OF being Il postmas-
{ r, and on this assumption Gov.
Grover proceeded to give certificate
OF election to one, Cronin, and he
proceeded to ill the two vacancies in
the electoral board. This proceeding
WAS di-regirded by the other two Re.
publican electors and they filed the
vacancy according to the state Law
and their three votes will be sent &c
Washington in February. This &C
ton OF Gov. Grover is almost univer-
sally condemned as unwarranted by
any law or precedent.
The House OF Representatives have
sent investigating committees L
Florida, South Carolina and Louisi
ana. The legislature OF South Caro-
lima is the one recogn zed by Gov
Chamberlain and is proceeding t
business. Congress is full OF hal
fledged plans to settle the perplexins

A Protest.

To the SO called Christians IL
Plymouth:
Where, OF. where Is your Chris
tianity? What does the Bible teach
but to stand ~ the fallen. ani To aid
the afflicted? II certainly does not
teach or advise us To help stfik..
them d 'wn; but rather 10 help them
up .nd aid them To bee ,,ne pm.-
body-which thing you. the Chris
tlans, are not doing.
What can be expected OF US, who
are Familiarity called -irredeemablr
Sinners when We have such exAm-
plies given US? Oh! il you would
have the name OF Christian, act in n
manner To deserve the name. Chris
tim, 10 me, when translated, means
simply thi-, "a helping class" Is ON.
deserving Of such a. name who will
carry To her neishbor every scandal
Gus tale with more aided 10 il, which
she may hear? II so, may Cod soon
rid this-his footstool-of such Chris
tians. But. NO, you are not Chris
tians. None. who will participate in
such low, degrading. british pastim-.
Is deserving OF the name; rather Is il
IL Disgrace to the true Christian to
have yon bear the sam, name. Yet
many such we have In our little city
III Plymouth. Has not this poor I'M
fortunate girl suffered enough with
out these CALLING remark thrown at
her from all sides? Has she done
more than many another one In youi
own city Ina, done. and may do.-for
aught We know-those very ones who
have the most TO shy about il?
Why not now turn your remarks
upon the one who caused all this
ronble. and let this poor unfortunate
rest short time? He may walk our
streets and be- recognized by every
one, while she will be trodden down,
down, until all are sure she can't rise
again. Who. ask, is TIE guilty one?
Wh). but he who may still be called
gentleman. and disgrace the name
May God right this wrong and pun
ish the guilty ones as they deserve, Is
The prayer OF
A FRIEND TO THE UNFORTUNATE.

A Suggestion.

Now have come the long and pleas
ant winter evenings. How shall Ne
spend them, with the greatest profit
and pleasur. 10 ourselves? Hon
shall the young people OF Plymouth
spend them, is undoubtedly an oft
repeated question. We have sug-
grstion to make TO them, and should
be pleased To see some action taken.
il the suggestion is favorably re-
ceived. 1t is this:
Let the Young men and women. the
boys and girls OF this city, orginiz'.
themselves into n Literary Society OF
some kin.l. 1t need have little organ
ization or machinery, the less the
better. A few officers and an execu-
tive committee would be sufficient.
Let the membership be voluntary, "a
far us pos ible, and have it under
stool that each one is t. contribute
something for its financial support.
For a place OF meeting we wo III sug-
gest small, comfortable hall. one
that can be easily heated aud well
ligh'ed Its rental and the expenses
Of heating AMI lighting ought not TO
be bur,lensomc - indeed, divided
among the membership OF u large
society it woull be very small. As
70 the character OF the proceedings OF
the society. that must be determined
by the members themselves. Among
some other features, we think the
following would be- attractive: Quar-
tetre, chorus and solo singing. with
more or less instrumental music.
This should be made IL prominent
fsatuie, rs nothing can, perhaps, give
greater pleasure for so small Effort.
Then the literary features can b.
made IA varied aud diversified as
Thought best. Essays. leclamaiion-,
readings, oraiions. Dialogues, etc. at
once suggest themselves rs the more
.opular methods for seeking both in
struciion and amusement Short,
live discussions woul.I not b. void OF
interest, and might be the means
attracting other desirable IN .mb .rs
Such a society, although designed
especially for the youig, and to BE-
mainly supported by tn IN. should
welcome any and all OF the citizens
OF the place, either as listeners or
participants. Many young profes-
sional men In the city could thus BIZ
induced to join their influence and be
the means OF increasing the interest
in these gatherings. The parents
should also be welcomed, as nothing
affords them more pleasure than to
witness the happiness and progress
Of the younger generations LIT II
he place or social. mental and mon nj
improvement-a bright. happy gath
erlng each week, eagerly Io)!le'l for
ward to by all participants ani lis
teners. Can not such u weekly soci-
ETY. be established here In Plymouth
for this winter? Will not some one
start the ball TO rolling? We have

night-"lixe the wolf on the fold
and beseiged Mr.. and Mrs. J. N.

number were present notwithsiand-
ing the severity OF the storm. and IL
was certainly genuine surprise. SO
much so that Mr. Freese didn't exact
ly understand what 1t was all about
until somebody suggested the fif-
teenth anniversary OF his marriage
and then 1t was all explained. 1t was
very pleasant affair indeed and all
the more enjoyable from its genuine
impromptu nature. Among the
presents to the genial host and wife
were beautiful toilet set, and a set
OF fine vases. These were the tokens
OF the high esteem ia which Mr.. and
Mrs. Freese were held by the partici-
pants and were received by them
with feelings Of gratitude and thank
fulness that their lot Is cast among
such valued friends. 1t was a joyous
occasion long 70 be remembered by

The calamity or the burning OF the

count OF which we give on our first
