HydrOphObla Notes.

A rabid dog made its appearance at
Yorklyn, Del, on Tuesday morning
and bit all the dogs he came across, al
so a COW. He was pursued by num-
Der Of persons and about half mile
from the village he was overtaken by
W. Vernon on horseback and shot. All
the dogs known to have been bitten
have been killed. A number of chill
dren on the way to school had a narrow
escape as the dog passed them on the
road.
A dog belonging to Mr.. Eli Huzzard,
hotel keeper at Kimberton, Chester CO..
went mad on Monday and was killed.
The canine had been bitten by another
dog about nine weeks ago, and this be-
ing known he was kept tied.
A horse belonging to Mr.. Joseph l..
Ridley, brickmaker at Coatsville, was
bitten about three weeks ago by rabid
dog. A few days since the horse was
also attacked with rabies, and after suf-
fering terribly for several days with no
prospects Of relief, Mr.. Ridley killed the
poor brute on Friday last. Mr.. Ridey's
neighbors have since purchased another
horse and presented it to him.
VIM. Appleman, who attempted to
wreck a train on the Erie Railway, near
on the "a ult., pleaded guilty
at Milford, Pa, on Tuesday, and was
sentenced yesterday to ten years i'm
prisonment.

The Rsalsiss of Trust.

Mr.. d. l.. Moody preached on Trust
last Sunday at Eutaw Place Baptis
Church, Baltimore. A good many peo
pls, h. said, put their trust in God enly
iar ~ they could see. This idea tina
,srything must .be known about Goo
% believe in him and trust Him is no
aught in the Bible. God wants us u
trust to Him for everything, and 4
believe that He means wha, He saws.
But for this word trust there would mol
BE- church in Baltimore, and but fol
|, not a bank In the city would stand
bty eight hours. What run there
vould be upon the banks but for trust
nd confidence. Trust Is the foundatio1 j
d everything. II one Is sick and sends
|br doctor confidence must be felt in
bis medicine; II lawyer is employed
onlidence must be rsposed in him. We
u- to trust in the Lord in the dark a.
u4ll as in the light. Trust Him all the
time, and with all the heart. Man may
a4ceive, but God never. Mr.. Moody
rieved that il he had TO keep his own
snl Satan would have II before he got
liz tea that evening. Trusting was
|pe thing, trying another. He hoped
bat word trying would be dropped
i-rr in Baltimore. He had heard SO
such of it. Drop trying and trust
Hm. Inhdes and skeptics 60 around
liking about God. They don't know
never tried Hin. 1t could
bot be expected that they would trust
|Hlm when they don't know Him. 1t
Eas hard to get people to stop looking
b. at self. 1t was not that we love
|Hn, but that He loved us first. Love
hways desc-nds; a mother loves the
|Aild better than the child loves the
bother. Oh! that men would get out
ie Of the world, and live tor God.
FOme people want happiness tefore
(sry want Christ. The Church was
|nII Of people who want to be happy be-
re they have anything to make them
Eippy. God wants us to trust Him for
Enpora as well as spiritual things; to
flst Him for our daily bread. There
Fe people whe talk against ministers
|Neiving large salaries. Ministers who
so are generally liberal to the poor,
|ni ii it comes in freely they give it
|1t freely; they don't lay up much.
(sn who talk against il are generally
gents of the devil, The meetings of
/, Moody are attended daily by good
kany ministers OF various denomina-
2ns, some Of whom take notes during
