BOSTONIANs AT DINNER.
A Pleasant Sketch of How the
Disciples of Culture Feed.

Boston Letter in New Nolk.
like To regard the BostOnian when
he feeds. He is an interesting social
study nj such times. Not that he is
social; far from it. Usually, he reads,
il ne be at public table, even though
he may have companion on the other
side Of the table. In the bosom Of his
family, | am persuaded, he reads the
newspaper. At the restaurant he reads
a book. Let no soothing New Yorker
think that the Bostonian reads kont or
Schlegel with his hulled corn and milk.
He will probably be found with light
novel before him. He has brought it
with him TO save time. He Will read
the Transcript in the cars when he goes
home at night. The Boston diet is
familiar. The reader at once thinks Of
Boston brown bread and beans, or OF
the tish-ball, to which the accompanying
bread is limited. After q careful survey
Of the field. am convinced chat Boston
people eat pastry, cake and buildings
than any other race beneath the canopy.
The staple of the restaurant bill OF fare Is
made up of these things. Then there
are simpler forms of food which take 4
second place in the daily meRU, but
which must be impoverishing to blood
and brain. For example, at Parker's,
the other day, my nearest neighbor din
ed from milk toast and shelled beans,
washed down with copiOus draughts OF
iced tea. Another bloodleSS man silent
w consumed, between glimpses OF liter
ature. hulied corn and milk, fruit pie
and cold corned beef Not far from this
s.Id-iaced person was Young man who
was having private Orgie with veal
pie and bottle of lager. Another Gus
toner, after filing himself with bowl
OF soup, absorbed plateful of huckel-
berry pudding sO pOrtentious IN bulk
as 10 make one tremble for the family
upon whom his inevitable dyspepsia
would be wreakcd. In all that great
cafe. where So many swell people dine,
there was scarcely ANYTHING drank but
ice water, iced tea and milk, or beer.
Not bottle of Claret was to be seen.
Two young men had a pint Of cham
payne between them, but rs they talked
necessarily of "New York do not
believe they were of Boston. One even
ing, while taking late dinner at Par
ker's, | noticed a party of suburban
blo0ds, at an adjoining table, enjoying
them selves hilariOusly over a porter
house steak and several bottles of lager,
all laughing with that spontanetiy and
readiness to be tickled by trifles which
is the envy and dispair of old greybeards
like myself Theirs was the first sensi-
bic banquet had seen in apublic place
i'm Boston, and the key of this was
given when one party, in wild hurst
OF -cOnviviality, smote his comrade i'll
the back and cried: "Say, Jack, amt
this a-of a time?"

STATE NOTES.

A REMARKABLE monstrosity in the
way of a calf, is reported from Dry
Fork, in Pendleton county. Here is the
story, as given by an eye witness. The
cali had two perfectly formed heads,
four ears, two tails, two spinal columns,
seven legs, eight feet, no liver, two sets
of lungs, no heart, and the body all one.
OF course it was impossible for such a
creature to live. The COW belonged to
Marion Calhoun. Both COW and cali
died.
The discovery of a very rich deposit
OF coal has been made in Pocahontas
county, on one of the tributaries of
Greenbrier river. The coal is Of an un-
usually rich quality, and is supposed to
abound in inexhaustible quantity.
4 MONSTER eel grabbed the fishing
tackle of little son of Jacob Rawling,
on the South Branch, yesterday, and
drew the little fellow into the river. \
larger brother rescued the boy and
caught the eel.

The Bible Contains a Revelation From
God-McIlvaine's Lectures on the Evil

Il
God-McIlvaine's Lectures on the Evil
dences of Christianity.
Correspondence of the Register.
In reading the article in the REGISTER
o.. the 18th inst, signed "S.," on "Cur-
rent Religious Thought" it occurred to
me that il the sceptical and unbelieving
could only be induced to read Me
Ilvaine's Lectures on the Evidences OF
Christianity, it would meet all the de-
mands of their case exactly. The
author (McIlvaine), after pretty
full discussion of the authenticity and
credihilitv of the New Testament
writings, proceeds TO prove by four dis
tinct and independent lines of argument
miracles, prophesy, propagation and
fruits-that the writings of the
Apostles contain a revelation from God.
The prevalence of scepticism and inf
deity is not because the evidences OF
Christianity are not abundant, and over
whelmingly convincing at all points,
but because the men of tins dav fail to
bring their minds in contact with the
evidences as they are presented in the
best standard authors. | would be glad
to present TO your readers some extracts
from this author by way OF showing the
triumphant manner in which he dis.
poses of some OF the current objections
to the Christian religion, particularly
that which aihrms that miracles are i'm
possible. McIlvaine is troop-a per-
feet avalanche. Read my doubling
friend, read 1t may do you good.

Short il YOU sing through Il, long II you sigh
Little by little-an hour day,
Gone with years that have vanished away;
Little by little the race Is run,
Trouble and awaiting and toll are done.
Little By little the skies grow clear;
Little by little the sun comes near;
Little by little the days smile out
Gladder and brighter on pain and doubt;
Little by little the seed we sow
Into beautiful yield will grow.
Little By little the world grows strong,
Fighting the battle OF Right or Wrong
Little by little the Wrong gives way,
Little by little the Right has sway;
Little by little all longing souls
Struggle up near the shining goals
Little by little the good in men

Little by little the God of all
