Randall's Rulings for Effect

Washington, March 1.-The story is
current to-day in congressional circles
That the secret of Randall's rulings yes
terday was not attributable to Il desire
to hasten the count or defeat the plans
of the hlibusterers, but entirely i'll the
interest of the latter. 1t is now known
that the Democratic leaders expected,
by means of the so-called certificate of
IL of the Tilden electors from YER
mont, sent to Mr.. Ferry after the pas
sage of the electoral bill, to have the
vote of Vermont referred to the com
mission, and the action of Ferry in not
submitting the paper to the JOINT con-
venIion was Il complete surprise to
them. By getting this case referred to
the commission, the Glibusterers would
have secured an important delay in the
count-sufficient, they claim, to have
enabled them to prevent the count from
being completed. Randall's rulings yes
terday were made with this point in
view, and he was greatly astonished at
Ferry's course, whereby any delay other
than that allowed by law was prevented.
That the leaders were counting upon
the reference of this case to the commits
sion was fully shown by the actions of
Hewitt and others in the joint conven-
ton last night, and this fact fully ex-
plains the speakers rulings yesterday,
which were made in the belief that the
delay which the filibusterers wanted
would be secured by referring the Ver-
mont case to the commission.

discharge of their duty, that the Re-
public might live, but there was some
thing force could not do. We must
have our union to be a union of hearts,
and we would have our constitution
obeyed, not merely because of the force
that compels obedience, but obeyed be-
cause the people love the principles of
the constitution, and to day, If 1 am
called to the work to which Abraham
Lincoln was called sixteen years ago, it
is under brighter skies and more favor

re-establishing in the hearts Of our

to the constitution as it is, and Union
as it is.
As the train moved away the air was
rent with shouts, which the Governor
acknowledged by bowling. AS the train
emerged from the depot a number of
locomotives on side tracks drowned the
voices of the multitude in sounding
their whistles, certainly a goodbye suf-
ficiently loud and hearty.

Sensible Words from a Sensible Man.
Columbus, Ohio, March 1.-Governor
Hayes and party left for Washington
this afternoon. His departure was
made the occasion of Il civic and mill
tary ovation. The street leading from
the Governors residence to the depot
was gaily decorated with flags and
crowds lined the sidewalks. A detach-
ment of L. S. troops from Columbus
barracks, the Columbus cadets, and
cadets from the Ohio Agricultural Col
lege, formed his escort, and numerous
bands furnished music. The arrival of
the presidential party at the depot was
greeted by Il crowd of citizens, who
rent the air with lusty cheers as the
President and his family transferred
themselves from their carriages to the
special car provided for them.
In response to the demands of the
multitude, Governor Hayes appeared
on the rear platform of his a and de-
livered an earnest speech which was
several times interrupted by the move
ment of cars or adjoining tracks.
Finally the Governor bid the crowd
farewell and advised a dispersal to avoid
accident by the movement of cars. As
the cars moved the crowd gave loud
cheers and the bands played Aud
Lang Syne," and national airs. A
large party accompanied the Governor.

Praying In the Night-Watches.

am not surprised at Davids praying to
God in the night-watches at his rising from
his bed, and ascending to the roof of his
house, and when the mighty heart of the
city was still, and the mountains around
about Jerusalem were sleeping in the calm
brilliancy of an Eastern night, that he should
gaze with rapture on the sky, and pour forth
such psalm of praise as, "When consider
the heavens, the work of thy fingers" etc
The night is more suited to prayer than the
day. | never wake in the middle of the
night without feeling induced to commune
with God. One feels brought more into
contact with him. The whole world round
us, we think, is asleep. But the great Shep
herd of Israel slumbers not, nor sleeps. lie
Is awake and so are we. We feel. in the
solemn and silent night, alone with God
And then there is everything in the circum
stances to lead one to pray. The past is
often wildly recalled. The voices of the
dead are heard, and their forms crowd
around you. No sleep can bind them. The
night seems the time in which they should
hold spiritual communion with man. The
future, too. throws its dark shadow ovel
you-the night of the grave, the certain
death-bed, the night in which no man cal
work. And then everything makes suct
an impression on the mind at night, wher
the brain is nervous and susceptible. The
low sough of the wind among the trees th,
roaring, or eerie whish of some neighborins
stream; the bark, or low howl of the dog
the general impressive silence--all tend tc
sober and solemnize the mind, and to fore,
it from the world and its vanities, whicl
then seem asleep to God, who alone can up
hold and defend it.-Normdn Macleod.

The Atheist and the Globe.


Athanasius Kircher, the famous astron-
omer, having friend who denied the exist
ence of a supreme Being, took the following
method to convince him of his error upon his
own principles. Expecting him upon visit,
he procured very handsome globe of the
starry heavens. and placed it in a corner of
the room where it could not escape his
friends observation. The latter seized the
first occasion to ask whence it came, and to
whom it belonged Not to me- said
Kircher; "nor was it ever made By anJ
person. but came here by mere chance p
" That" replied his skeptical friend, ais
impossible You surely jest" kircher
however, seriously persisting in his asser
ton, took occasion to reason with his friend
upon his atheistical principles You will
not, said he, "believe that this small body
originated in mere chance; and yet you
would contend that those heavenly bodies
of which it is only faint and small resem
bance, came into existence without ordel
aud design" Pursuing this chain of rea
soning, his friend was at first confounded
in the next place convinced aud ultimately
Joined in cordial acknowledgment of thu
absurdity of denying the existence of God.

In marrying make your own match; do
not marry man to get rid of him, or to
oblige him, or to save him. The man who
would 60 to destruction without you will
quite as likely go with You, and perhaps
drag you along. Do not marry in haste
lest you repent at leisure. DO not marry
for home and living, Do not let aunts

'tion into bondage, tears, and lifelong
misery, which you must endure. Place moi
yourself hahitually in the hands of any
'uitor until you have decided the question
If marriages human wills are weak anc
people often become bewildered and do not
know their error until it is too late. Get
away from their influence, settle your head
aud make up your mind alone. Do no
trust yourself in the keeping of one who hal
no heart, no head, no health. Shun th'
man who ever gets intoxicated. DO no

The Benefit of Laughing.

DR.. Greene in his " Problem of Health,
says there is not the remotest corner or lit
tie inlet of the minute blood vessels of the
human body that does not feel some wavelet
from the convulsion occasioned by good,
hearty laughter The life principle, or the
central man, is shaken to its innermost
depths sending new tides of life and strength
to the surface, thus materially tending to
insure good health to the persons who in.
dulge therein. The blood moves more rap.
idly, and conveys different impression to
all the organs of the body, as it visits them
ON that particular mystic journey when the
man is laughing, from what it does at other
times For this reason every good, hearty
laugh in which a person INDUCES tends to
lengthen his life, convey ing, as it does, new
and distinct stimulus to the vital forces
Doubtless the time will come when physi
clans, conceding more Importance than they
now do to the influence OF the mind upon
the vital forces of the body, will make theil
prescriptions more with reference to the
mind, and less to drugs for the body; anC
will, in so doing, find the best and most ef
fective method of producing the required
effect upon the patient.

How TO Treat n Watch,

More watches are spoilt by irregular wind
ing than by most other causes The opera
ton should, il possible, be performed regu-
larly, and always with steady and uniform
motion, not moving both hands, and as
nearly as practicable at the same hour daily.
A watch should always be kept at the same
temperature; left over night ON a stone sur
face it is sure TO gain, or, if the oil gets
thickened it may top, to be started again
by the warmth of the pocket. The requi-
sites of good watch are that the case,
whether of gold or silver, should be correctly
made and of fair thickness, and the hinges
close and smooth, the glass well-fitted, the
dial of clear, bright enamel, the seconds
sunk, and the whole of good weight when
held in hand. When, too, the dome is opened,
the brass-work should look well-fnished, the
edges smoothed off, the steel of diamond
like polish, and the jewels, pale in color, but
of a fine, clear lustre.
