Misapplied Church Funds.

It has been known in this county for
some days that deficit existed in the
funds Of the Southern Presbyterian Pub
fishing House at Richmond, occasioned by
the misrepresentation of them by the bust
ness manager. Rev. DR.. E. T. Baird, who
has for nine years filled that position. A
minister made a visit to this sec
tion to try and get funds to help raise the
amount, about $4,000, and thus prevent
the property of the Publication House be-
ing imperilled for the debt. In Staunton
he raised 81 900. of which one lady alone
contributed $500, and in the congregation
of Thinking Spring church, it is stated that
he succeeded in raising another $1,000.
A Richmond letter states that two New
York experts had examined DR.. Baird's
books and failed to detect the defalcation,
and last week the Committee of Publica-
tion themselves examined, when DR.. B.
voluntarily called their attention to the
fact that he had misappropriated $4,000,
and offered to surrender all his real and
personal property in restitution. He had,
it is stated, used the funds in various en-
terpr1ses, including a button-hole machine
and washing machine.

We have quite an Interesting item
through letter received by a friend from
Washington. When Mrs. Hayes arrived
in Washington from Ohio, Miss Virginia
Peyton, highly educated young lady OF
of twenty and a grand daughter Of the late
Bishop Johns Of Virginia, living near
Washington, determined, being teacher
by profession, to apply for that position to
the Presidents children. She had no in
fuential friends and so determined with
out letters of recommendations to apply
in person. So one morning she went to
the White House and inquired for Mrs.
Hayes. The Presidents wife received her
very kindly and hearing her business prom
Used after long conversation TO make in
quiries and communicate with her forth
with. The result of her enquiries was so
favorable that the intrepid young lady
was engaged as governess for her children
at a handsome salary.
