aosEnH COOK IN nnooKLYS.

Joseph Cook Of Boston. delivered his lecture last
evening on Eternal Hope in Washington Avenne
Baptist Church. Brooklyn. The audience was very
large onc though the invitations to the lecture were,
in sense. privately given. Rev. Dr. johnson, of Pha-
delphia secretary Of tho frcedmnn's Bureau Of the
Baptist Home Mission Society, wished 10
raise little enthusiasm and littlo money for
the cause he represented and both accomplished
by hitchins Joseph Cook to the frecdnlen's car.
Hence after DR.. johnson had presented the claims of
the coored men OF the South to recognition and aid
from Baptsts OF the North. aud had shown the need
for employing more missionaries where they now
employ some, Mr.. Cook added his words of en-
conragcmcnt. After collection had been taken up
for the freedmen, Mr. Cook went with his lecture
1t was given ia the form of a soliloquy, and
on either side of him in imagination he
placed william NJ. Tweed and William Cullen
Bryant. Thgn following out the character
istcs of each. he demonstrated clearly
the logic Of q supposable would admit the per-
lnanencc OF character. He traced the unity of law
Also and classified all law under three heads-physi
cal, organic and moral-aEd by showing what occurs
under the operation OF the first two, and in part
der the last laid the basis for strong presumption
that there Is repentance after death. At the
time nc tried to keep Gods will and mans will
free He quoted from Canon Farrar 10 show that

tions of the matcriality of torments In the life to

possibilities are against repentance after DEATH he

to take leap In the dark Mt death. And what he
not willing to do himself he not willing to advise
any else to do.
For two hours Mr.. Cook held the large audience
spcll-bound as he drew picture after picture of his
representative characters. He made many points In
calculation of the fact that conscience in may
become scared and dead that he will not know that
he IL dead and blind spiritually and morally. and that
going from this life TO the next In that condition,
there Is evidence that tho light from the throne of
God will have any effect on him.

first of series Of lectures before the Young
Mems Association in the vestry Of the temple

SIDEWALK MEETING.

An adjourned sidewalk meeting was held Thursday evening, at the residence of AIr. Mar. GUS c. Hawley. The meeting was called to or. der by the president, MT Starr. Mir. Booth presented q letter from Mir. Siliiman, of Bridge. port, which was read by the secretary. The letter stated the terms and conditions for laying of the walks. As there were no other propo- sals offered, and many were not prepared to speak definitely as to what they would do, it was deemed advisable to adjourn until Tuesday evening of this week. and on invitation of Miss Blakslee, the meeting adjourned to meet at the residence of Mir, Vim. Blakslee, at which time a more complete report from the committee was heard.
 After the meeting was called to order by the President, pro lem, Mir. NJ, c, Hawley, MT. L. E. Booth presented a letter from Mir 'Soule of New Milford, which contained q statement of what MT. s. would charge for laying the walks It was thought best to await further information as to the cost.
 A committee consisting of Mir. L. B. Booth, Mir Henry Sanford, Miss F. s, Glover, Miss Annie Sanford and Miss E. Beers were appoint. ed to solicit the names of those who will agree to assist in building continuous walk, and are to report at the next meeting, to be held at the residence of Capt.

Palestine.
SA8iELESS

AS debating societies or clubs form prom4- inent feature in the recreations of the people of Newtown and Sandy Hook, Palestine is not to be outdone, for we think something similar has been started by the inmates of the almshouse, the name Of which is, probably, "The Debating Crutch," as that was the insigna used to denote that the question was ready for general discus sion. We were not definitely informed what the subject WAS, but think it must have been this "Resotcsd, That women are entitled to the last word," which was opened with some feel ing on the part of the affirmative (the womcn) and was taken up by the negative, who replied excitedly, gesticulating with the crutch in a manner so as to come in contact with the per son of the affirmative, who then brought to bear all the weight of argument possibe,which com pletely took the equilibrium out of the oppo. nent, causing him to rccline in such position as to demolish the lower sash of a window. This brought the debate to a close, and also the overscer, who gave them some oral instructions in conducting their arguments hereafter. With. out doubt the question was decided in the aflir, native.
 A slight mistake (relie) was made in our last weeks notes. Ambrose Taylor has not moved to this place, but rented the house referred to for the purpose of boarding his men, who are cutting timber, Mir. Taylor being extensively engaged in that business.
 4 few of the friends of Mir. E, M. BOtsford met at his residence one evening last week, where,we presume, they had an enjoyable time, as the deacon and family know how to bring such things about

It Is with feelings of the deepest sorrow that we are called upon to record the sudden death of William L. Wanzer We little dreamed, two weeks ago, that VIC should now be engaged in writing this sad article. In these days of delal- cations and breaches of trust, il Is refreshing to contemplate the character Of such man. Not only his honesty, however, but his many emo, bling qualities, made him near and dear to us. Well known to us for many years as straight forward, genial man, we desire to express our sympathy to the members of the bereaved fam, fly, and to pay our last tribute to our departed friend.
 The Rev. Francis Bogardus of the Reformed Church preached temperance sermon last Sab. bath evening t6 good and appreciative audi ence. As he Is an earnest worker for the tenn, perance cause, we feel that he will have great influence here. The members of Franklin Div. 5. of T, have hired the hall belonging to E. II. Nearing. It is large, commodious room, and much more convenient than the old one, A Temperance Union will be held in the Town Hall on Friday evening, March 29tll. Speakers from abroad arc expected to be present, and q general invitation Is extended to aIl.
 Mir. Robert Smiths residence in Obtuse was completely demolished by fire last Saturday evening. It is supposed the fire first originated by throwing hot ashes into boiler having a wooden bottom. As the place was not insured it will be great loss to Mfr. Smith.
