The recent extremely hot weather
has caused a writer to speak in this
manner in regard to the power of en-.
during heat:
1t is generally supposed that the hui
man frame cannot endure great heat,
and. II exposed TO it, will soon sink
into exhaustion. This is true in hot
climate, to which people have not
been accustomed. But in this case
the effect may be due to influences
from vegetation, or to some disturbance
of nature. 1t is certain that artificial
heat far greater than the heat OF the
sun is in the Torrid Zone may be
borne without special suffering or
harm,
The "British Journal OF Science"
says that men in iron establishments
work without inconvenience with the
thermometer constantly at one hum
dred and twenty degrees, and in pits
for making the Bessemer steel at one
hundred and forty degrees. In Turk
ish baths the shampooners are often
busiiy engaged for four or five hours
in succession, with the temperature at
one hundred and ten degrees. In the
Red Sea Steamers the stokehole marks
one hundred and ten degrees, and in
enamel works the operators are COM
PEELED daily to endure heat of three
hundred degrees. The elastic power
of the body to accommodate itself to
the extremes is wonderful.
General Phil Sheriden is still filing
dispatches in Chicago to the General
of the army. Secretary Cameron ought
to detail clerk from the War DE.
partment to file the dispatches, and
send General Sheridan to the front
against the Indians. This is not the
proper business for Sheridan to be en-.
gagged in when a war is raging on the
frontier, and hundreds of gallant men
are falling before willy and treacher-
GUS foe. What are general and a
lieutenant general good for it they do
not fight when there is fighting to be
done?-Bdlt. Gdzette.

THE GRocsRYMEN IN MARKET.-Itis
said that great many grocerymen go
to market on Tuesday and Friday af>
ternoons, and engage their butter,
which they take away after ten o'clock
the following mornings. By this means
they evade the ordinance which pro-
hibits their attendance at Market until
after 10 o'clock Wednesday and Satur-
day mornings, and also tend to keep
up the high price of butter by buying
it in advance of the people. The Clerk
of the Market should look into the
matter,

The Cooper's Point, N. j., ship car
penters still hold out in their strike

The Reecher Council.

BRooKLYs, February 15.--Tbe Advisory
Council opened at 2 O'Clock. Delegates from
140 churches occupied the body Of Plymouth
church, the galleries being filled chiefly by
ladies. Mr. Beecher greeted the delegates
on their arrival, and opened the proceedings
with an address. After preliminary bust
ness, DR.. Bacon, Of New Haven, was chosen
first moderator.
After Scripture reading DR.. Bacon prayed
for wisdom in Council for the pastor Of Ply
mouth church that he might be wholly
blessed and bis ministry more fruitful, and
that the result would be harmony in his
church.
The Moderator then said /: 1t is proper to
remark at the outset that we are not here to
whitewash either this church or its pastor.
If they need embarrassing they should have
called other than us.
Second. We are not called to revise and
correct the judgment Of any former council.
Third. Not to amuse the pu bile by draw
ing off their attention TO side issues.
Fourth. Not to decide or try. the main
question, which has agitsted not ONLY, Brook
Ign but all English.speaking christendom
for three years.. We are here to advise the
church concerning the manner in which it
has dealt, and how it ought to have dealt.
with what is known as .stbe great scandal"
and to revise all the proceedings of this
church 10 relation to it.
In concluding, be asked for silence and
the absence OF all applause. -. ..-..

ROBBED AND MISTAKEN FOR A GHosT.-The
McchancSburg Cumberland county, Pa, J
J0urndi tells q story that seems almost in.
credible, though it is vouched for as strictly
true. Samuel Erb, Of East Penusboro'
township, had been to church one night, aud
as he approached his house was startled by 4
commotion in bis chicken-coop. On investi-
eating the cause he discovered three men
wringinS the pecks of his poultry. When
the thieves saw him they fled with their
plumber, seeking shelter among some bushes.
Dir. Erb with his dog pursued them, but q
couple of shots from the thieves caused the
dog to retreat. A pistol was then presented
to bis breast by the robbers, who robbed him
Of his money and watch, and then compelled
him TO take Of bis clothes, stripping him to
his shirt and drawers. They then gagged
him and tied his hands behind his back, and
he was allowed to 60 home, the thieves
taking their departure also. A correspond.
ent of the Journal tells the rest of the story
AS follows: "The feelings Of Mr.. Erb can
be easier imagined than described as he
walked home through the keen air. But bis
troubles were not yet over, for at bis gate
be was met by his dog. which had deserted
him. Failing to recognize his master, he
kept barking and swapping through the pales
at his legs, Mrs. Erb, being aroused by
the noise, looked out the window, and
seeing his white figure dancing in the
moonlight, thought it was ghost,
called her father, who was staying with
her at the time, who came armed with the
shotgun, ard opening the door be called off
the dog. He then desired to know the mis-.
sion OF one in so strange an attire. Never
was man more willing to speak, or more un-
able than Mir. Samuel Erb. So the only reply
was few mods of the head, accompanied by
as many jumps with the feet. Mr.. Boozer
then brought bis weapon to bis shoulder, and
taking aim at the supposed ghost, demanded it
to speak Immediately or leave the premises.
With this be coupled the promise that failure
to comply would cause him 10 fire. Mr.. Erb
was now in great dilemma. Speak he could
not. Ii be staid he would be shot. and if he
went away he would freeze. In fact he was
nearly frozen already. He turned to 90, and
as he did so his wife saw bis arms were tied
on bis back. Telling her father this, that
gentleman called to him to come back. but
kept the gun pointed, saying as long as there
was no evidence OF hostility there need be
no fear. Mr.. Erb trembingy obeyed, and
on drawing near was recognized, and taken
in and cared for"
