THE EVENING SERIES

drew an immense crowd. Seats, gallery,
aisle:, pulpit and every available and I'M
available spot were occupied by attentive
listeners, and fully BIS many persons went
away, unable to get into the church, as
those who did secure sitting or standing
room The singing was congregational,
Miss Roxie Lewis presiding at the organ.
EVERYBODY seemed TO sing, and the effect
OF the mighty volume OF sound going out
from hundreds of voices was particularly
grand. The feature of the evening WAS
the discourse OF Rev. j. w.
Conrad. ID. d, of Philadelphia.
DR.. Conrad announced as his text, Ro-
mans XIV, a. For whatever thiHgs
were written aforetime were written tor
our learning" and drew therefrom the
theme, 1.-The Centennial era of tho true
theory Of self government in America"
The speaker from this theme discussed
the following propositions, that during
the 100 years just closed the true theory
OF self government in America was, J..
Clearly conceived. 2. Accurately ex-
pressed. 5. AuthorItstivcly declared.
L. Successfully defended. 5. Greatly
perverted. t. Triumphantly vindicated.
I. Practically demonstrated. The dis
course WAS one hour and forty minutes
in delivery, and was listened to with
wrapt attention throughout, many per-
sons standing the entire time. Thus
ended one of the greatest and most sue
cessful services ever held by the English
Lutheran Church of Wheeling.

THE whisper comes from over the

not types of conjugal felicity any more,
or in plain English that they are subject,
like "Diggory" in the play, to family
Jars. 1t has been known a long time to
all well.informed persons that Patti had
paid lair, not to say high market price,
for the title of nobility that she secured
under the Empire in the shape of hus.

and savings. Unless the profligate Mar
quis was greatly traduced, Patti would
have been justified long since in setting
up a separate establishment and dis

mentalities for controlling au election. /.
IL we may succeed in profting by such
lessons derived from perils butnarrowly
avoided, the perlls themselves would be
invaluable. They would become moni-
tors warning us to provide measures
against the recurrence Of such perils in
the future, from which an escape may
not be SO fortunately youchsafed TO the
commonwealth.
We have heretofore expressed our
views on the absolute need there Is for
uniform registration law. Such law
could not by any possibility have the
least party Significance. 1t would be
just as much protection for one party
as another. The absence Of such law,
as the campaign just closed most amply
signifies, both tempts and enables each
party to practise frauds upon each
other, whereby the sanctity of the ballot.
box is polluted aud profaned. To take
suitable measures for guarding against
the possibility Of this, is one Of the mou-
itory lessons taught us by Tuesdays
election. Aud we are glad to notice
that the press of the country, without
distinction of party, is very generally
endorsing the proposition as to the en-
actment Of some suitable law of regis
tration, in order to maintain the purity
| of our elections by throwing around the
ballot-box the strongest safeguards Of
the law.
Another admonition the election oil
Tuesday has given is in regard to the
exceeding looseness of our present
mode tor declaring the Presidential
vote in the presence OF Congress. ltt
lessons have demonstrated the impera
tive need OF some more exact and spe
cific procedure in the Constitutions
provisions ON that subject than we now
have, to meet and provide for contin
gencies now discovered to be by ne
means improbable nor remote. The
changed conditions of the country, its
amplitication both as to population
and extent, since the present, Const
tutional provisions were ordained as
the supreme law Of the land, not only
Justify but demand corresponding
change in the Constitution regulating
that subject. The possible evils OF thil
infrmity in the Constitution have beer
revealed in a most alarming aspect
and if avoided now, it would be the par
OF arrogance and of unwisdom to permi
the possibility of their recurrence in an!
similar case in the future. 1t is out o
this nettle of danger that wise states
men must be called upon to pluck tn
flower of safety. If this be done, th
lessons of this most memorable election
will not have been in vain. But ii I'm
needed and disregarded, wise men wei
may doubt whether another Centennia
will witness any election at all.

NEW YORK, not being possessed Of the
excellent breweries which abound in
Cincinnati and her numerous suburbs,
has been greatly exercised over the ex-
traordinary scarcity OF water which has
prevailed in the Croton valley, whence
most of her aqueous supplies are de-
rived. MIR. Campbell, Commissioners Of
Public Works, in late report, says
that during the last four months the
drought in the Croton valley has beer
unparalleled in the past fifty years
The Croton River has dwindled to
q mere brook, and but for the
wise provision of having stored in ca.
pacious reservoirs at Boyd's Corners
and supplies obtained from the West
chester and Putnam County lakes, the
great City of New York would have haG
q water famine fearful to think of. For.
tunately for Cincinnati she has for hel
friend and comfort the generous as wei
as beautiful Ohio that John Randolph
slandered, but which with adequate me-
chanical appliances for pumping and
reservoirs for holding, can never leave
the city the prey to either thirst or con.
flagrations.

Two bellies of this city lately cam e
home from Philadelphia shorh of their
wealth OF raven tresses. Alter they
had taken in all the points at the big
show and had made many purchases,
before they knew it they had spent all
their money, and, what was worse, had
lost their excursion tickets. They had
no friends in Philadelphia and no time to
wfiteto Reading. They therefore, resolved
to make a raise. so they skipped away
into barber shop aud struck bargain
for their back hair. Ihe shaver offered

time they were nicely shorn, and thus
they were able to get back 70 their Ma

rHE ELECTION AND IT'S LESSONS

CHE ELECTION AND ITS LESSONS
The great election of our Centennial
Year is over. Men of all party affilia-
tions will breathe more freely now that
this memorable conflict is passed.
Never before in the history of the Re-
public has there occurred a Presiden-
tial election when the interest in the
contest has been so Intense and ex-
Ereme. Independent Of the unspeakable
Importance of the political issues in
volved, the very closeness of the result
as to party predomtnance has given to
the contest an intensity of interest alto
gether unknown to any former cam
paign. That such political contest
could be conducted in country 30 vast
by a population so numerous with so
little of outbreak and turbulence, is a
browning honor to our people, and adds
another chaplet to the glory of free in
stitutions.
That this great election, carrying with
1t Influences upon the country's destiny
TO a degree that no human mind can
measure, should have passed without
popular commotion Of dangerous char
acter may well be accepted as grounds
Of thanksgiving and congratulation.
But its lessons do not end with the past:
they stand reflected upon the future
They have demonstrated to the public
MUD Of the country the imperative
need there is for stronger safeguards t.
the sacred rights of franchise.
Without in any manner, even by i'm
plication, imputing fraud or violence az
matter OF fact against either party ir
the contest just ended, we still must
maintain that enoughhas occurred to in
dicate how such things are possible, anc
how immeasurably mischievous mus

Increasing "importation of clergymeu

BE NOT ENvIOUs.

AS if by INSTINCT we are prone to judge OF
mems moral worth and happiness by their
surroundings. When we see individuals sur
rounded by all that the human heart Graves,
we are apt to jump to the conclusion that
such individuals are the favorites of heaven.
On the other hand, when we see individuals
beset with difficulties and struggling against
the waves of adversely, we, with as great ra'
pidity, conclude that God is not the friend Of
these individuals. Contemplating such things,
we grow restless and cherish envious feel
ings in our breasts. We are apt to think i'm
pious thoughts and give utterance to blasphe'
NOUS words. When we see the prosperity OF
the wicked, and what we call the adversely Of
the righteous, we are apt to conclude that it
is vain to serve God. One of the best men
once said, "Verily, have cleansed my heart
in vain, and washed my hands in innocence
for all the day long have I been plagued, and
chastened every morning" Ps. 1918, IA.
Such thoughts spring upin every good mans
mind, and such words are uttered by his lips.
They are foolish thoughts and wicked words.
Who would envy the OK the rich food that is
given him in order that he may grow fat, and
then fall beneath the butchers knife? He is
fed and fattened that he may be killed.
God deals with his people as skillful ply
sician treats his patient. The sick man is
made to swallow bitter and nauseating drugs,
and submit to many Inconvenience, that he
may be restored to health. In the same way
God deals with his people, that he may restore
them to perfect spiritual health and prepare
them for Heaven. Those who reject the Lord,
are permitted to 60 on in their course Of sin
and folly, and granted the desires of their
hearts in this world but when their earthly
career is finished, it will be announced to them
that all their prosperity is at an end. God so
deals with those who put their trust in him,
that it may be well with them when they die,
and through an endless eternity. Those who
reject him and seek their happiness in the
things of this world, are simply let alone.

THE MODEL.

THE MODEL.
In estimating their piety men are apt to
select wrong standard. They each say, IL
am not as bad as such one. He gets drunk,
or he swears, or he neglects to discharge some
other duty. I would not do as he does"
Now, it should be remembered that our neigh
bors are not our guides so far as holy living
is concerned. Christ is our model. If we
would live holy lives, we must set Christ al
ways before our faces. He is perfect and no
one else is. We may be as good as our neigh
bors, and fail to do our duty. Nay, we may
be far better than any of our neighbors and
still he vile sinners in the sight of God.
