Amusing Mistake of Two Yonng Preachers,

An amusing scene occurred in the Chris tan Church at Larksville, Pa.; last Sun- day morning.. It appears that the Met hodist pulpit at that place was to be sup piled by preacher from the Wyoming Seminary, and two young men proceeded thither for the purpose of conducting the service. Instead of going into the M. E. Church however, they went to the Christian Church. on the opposite side of the street where they found a large congregation. Thinking that they had been waited for they proceeded at once to the vacant put. pit, and after brief pause and a glance at the congregation, one of them rose, read a chapter in the Bible. and said he had selected it as the foundation of a few remarks The Rev. MT. Bevan, pastor of the church, who was little behind time, walked in at this interesting juncture, and much to his surprise found his pulpit al- ready occupied. He did not make a de- monstratien like Robert of Sicily, when the monarch found an angel in his place, but proceeded softly up and took his seat inside the railing to await further developments.
 The young preacher was about to go on with his discourse, unconscious of the sensation he was creating, when lady from the church on the opposite side of the street entered, and walking straight up to the pulpit beckoned to the young man, who was about to hold forth. Her conduct seemed somewhat strange to him, but he stopped tc listen, and she whlsper- ed something to his ear that made him change color quickly. She told him that he was in the wrong pulpit, and that the congregation over the way was waiting somewhat impatiently for his arrival. The two young men were very much dis comfted. but after moment they mast. cred the situation and sought short in terview with Elder Bevan, to whom they made suitable apology. They then pro- ceeded to the church across the road, but as they left the congregation smiled aud ibly over their mistake. -Scr0nton Re- publican, April 25.

 More than fifty of the defendants in the Gaines suit at New Orleans have pe. titiOned the Mayor and Board of Ad- mlnistrators to compromise the case with Mrs. Gaines by paying her the amounts paid by defendants for the property in. volved, with interest froM the time of purchase. This they think is the best method to pursue, as it will stop all fur. ther litigation.
 The ice.watered advocates of temper. ance, who organized themselves under the title of the Mir. Rutherford B. Hayes Tee total Temperance Society, exhibited a disregard of euphony really unpleasant.
