Eight inches more snow fell ON
Thursday Of last week that still sticks

very fine sleighing. The weather has
not been mild enough TO hasten the
pathipg Of the snow since, nor has IL
been as cold here recently as elsewhere
noted, the thermometer not indicating
below zero since Sunday morning OF
last week.

than the Rev. Mr.. Culver, which were
very modestly responded to by Mr..
White. The Rev. Mr.. Mick gave
some brilliant talk about sterling

A lively sensation produced in Gin
cinnati recently over the appearance Of
$75,OOO in silver halves Of old date, yet as
bright as when they came from the mint.
One theory was that the money was de-
based DIN of Jackson's time and another
that it was theft money. 1t turns out how
ever, to be the Savings Of the Baptist So
ciety Of Beaver county, Pa, who buried
the cash in 1861 and having just conclud-
ed it was safe to take it out. This piece
OF prudence costs the the association
obout 800, 900 in interest money.

Mr.. Lewis kissed her, but did not

ties, NJ. Grevy read letter from
President MacMahon, announcing
his resignation, amidst profound
silence. MacMahoh's letter of
resignation says: Being in disa.
greement with the ministry, being
hopeless OF forming another cabi.
net, and unwilling to assent to
measures which he regards contra
ry to good army organization, he
withdraws from power. At the
meeting OF the bureau of the Left,
Gambetta proposed Grevy for pres.
ident of the republic, which was
unanimously approved. q n1t
The present ministers will resign
and IA new parliament and cabiuet
will be constituted. 1t is stated
that Gamberta will take the prem
iership aud the foreign portfolio.
The concourse of the general
public It Versailles is not very
great. The excitement does not
compare with that of May 2, 1878,
when Timers resigned. There is no
disturbance anywhere.

of the two chambers were opened
by NJ. Martel, who again read Mac.
MahOn's letter OF resignation and
