WE learn that some two Sundays
ago, a revival of religion commenced
in the Sunday school at Bethlehem,
on Meadow creek. There had been
no preaching, and no preacher had
been present until Sunday last when
Rev. J. r. Plummer preached for
them. Up to that time several had
professed religion, and some fifteen
penitents were at the altar. The
meeting had been conducted by Mr..
Smith, the Sunday school superin-
tendent.

BLAINE AND BOOTH.

Before the California and Maine cleo
Aons were held, Blaine and Booth4were
brought prominently before the people
ID candidates for President and Vice.
President Of the United States, respect
iyely. 1t was thought that this ALTER
alive combination-representing the ex-
IRENE Eastern and Western States
would be very popular in the Ptesi-
Dental campaign, and that the two. BIS
would sweep the country. 1t was. uni-
derstood. by those who started the B:
b. boom, as well as by the BIS them,
selves, that their nomination by the,
National Republican Convention was,
contingent upon their respective States.
going Republican at the pending cleo
tions. Blaine worked with will, and
tried his "plan," as the affidayits of
those who. were offered brides to vote
his ticket proves. to, the full extent Of
his ability in Maine; and. Booth worked
with will for the corporations, against
whom. he threatened vengeance when
elected Senator by the Independents,
lii. California. Neither succeeded in
getting majority for-those whose cleo
taon they advocated, and the alliteratiye
continuation is broken. Washington
correspondents say that the Republicans
are disappointed with the result.of the
elections in both States. They. had
made up their minds that Blaine would
secure a.clear majority for the Republi-
cans in Maine, aud his failure to do it, it
isthought, puts an end to his candidacy
for the. Presidency. California, not
withstanding the Booth. flop, gave a
majority Of about $4,000 against the
Republicans, aud the State, unless
kearney can be bribed to put candi-
date IN the field for President, is hope
lessly lost to the Republicans in the
PRESIDENTIAL campaign. This ends the
blaine and Booth boom, and if Foster,
who is running in the interest of the
Secretary OF the Treasury, carries Ohio
in October, Sherman will have a clear
field for the nomination for President;

A TRIraRTuE CANDIDATE.

Massachusetts,, the mother Of theories
and isms, is distracted by political
factions. Ii boasts of no less than a
half dozen parties, each. and all Of which
have or intend 70 have tickets in the
field at the ensuing election. There
are Machine and Independent Repub-
Ecans, Blue-blood and Bntler Demo
Gratis, Greenbackers aud Prohibitionists.
Three Of these parties, the Greenback-
ers, Butler Democrats and Independent
Republicans, have nominated Ben. But
Ter for Governor. The height Of Ben's
ambition seems TO be the Governorship
OF the Bay State, and to reach that goal
be appears willing to sacrifice every
thing he possesses. He is what might.
he termed much nominated candidate,
and il only the Blue-blood Democrats
would. give, him their Endorsement his
election, would be certain. But they
dislike; Butler, who is as much a.fire--
brand in Massachusetts, as Kearney is
in California. But there the compari-
son between these men ends. Butler is
a man OF ideas as well as words, while
Rearney is.only prsting parrot. But
lbr is identified with. the interests and
welfare of his State, but Kearney has
no.interestss in1 his. adopted State, ex-
aept what he can get from the corpora
lions for Indirectly assisting them.
Butler lis backed by many of the solid
men of Massachusetts,, whoebsliese that
the interests OF the State would be adj
wanced by his election, and, he is the
idol OF the workingmen Of all parties,
whose rights he has defended in the
courts and. in Congress- As Demo
orat in,anti-war days, he. opposed the
tide OF Know Nothingism which THREAT
aned. TO. disfranehise foreign-born citi-
zens ): and as a, Union man, he com
manded brigade In the war, and made
his name terror to the people OF New
Orleans. As a Republican, he -support-
oil every measure introduced III Con-
gress TO perpetuate the power OF that
party. and, as Greenbacker,- he fav-
ored the payment of the national debt
III the same money in which it was con-
tracted, and thus. save interest ON the
bonds. Now, having tried all parties,
as reformer, he accepts. the nomina.
ton OF three of them, for. Governor Of
Massachusetts,, and the chances of his
election at this date are good.

\ NEW NATIONAL GAME-GREAT Il
EATING CONTEST At TOLEDO.

NEW NATIONAL GAME-GREAT rIE-
EATING CONTEST At TOLEDO.
Ii wasn't generally known. but it is 4
TACT. that there was a regular pastry-dcs-
troyins match. between the acts, at the
Adelphi Theatre last evening. Il prize
being awarded to the winner. There
was an immense audience in attendance.
and when the contestants. six boys. were
brought forward, they wcIc the objects oi
critical inspection, aud the boy who had the
mouth which came the nearest extending
from the east to the west ear. rs L grin
oversprcad his face. was the iavoritc in
the pools.
The lads ranged themselves on the
stage and We're place ON their knees,
each one before chair, on which WAS
placed pie, and then their hands were
tied behind them. the youth who CON
sumed his pie in the least time was to re-
ceivc the prize. At the word go" bust
ness commenced. No. |, who was ON
the right, seemed to chew in one time and
one motion, but he didn't put the spirit
and tone into his execution that No. >
did. No. ; started oil with the grac" and
skill ot an artist. but he choked On Il
dried apple of unusual size. and lost four
seconds and i halt time and the race, by
having to he pounded on the back To re-
store him to duty.
lie made Il gallant fight to win the
race, alter being sponged off, and having
some Of the dirt removed from his face;
but his delay was fatal, for No. 4, who had
started oil at Il steady gait, was letting
himself, or rather his waistband out, and
buckling down to his work in good style,
and neck and neck with No. >. who had
reached the thrce-quartcr slice OF his PIE,
and was cumming" ii Tor dear life. No.
q was most graceful and easy OF tie
whole lot. There was more style about
him, and the dirt on his face was distrib
u,ed with an eye to architectural effect,
the patches oil black standing out in relief
to the streaks of white.
lie evidently had been in countries
where the pie is known, and ate ii in all
the known dialects. His lower Jaw didn't
work aS il it needed oiing. and, rs he
took quarter section in his mouth, he
worked il from the corners to the CEN
tire. gradually and smoothly. and not bJ
Jerks and %ulpS, and when the last bit
was swallowed, he whcttcd his bill on
the rdgc oi the chair with the skill of u
person dH t,ui in matters at this kind. No.
= was the lucky chap. however. as he has
been raised To this business, in fact. he is
the child OF pir-uS parents, and learned
his trade ol the rir-utc Indians. lie
should have bcru handicapped, and would
have been II these facts had been known
at the start.
No. knows how tu surround u pie
without any blamed looliShncss about it,
