The Veto Expected.

WASHINGTON, April 28.-It is stated that
the President is preparing message tor the
House of Representatives tomorrow vetoing
the Army Appropriation bill.
CHICAGO, April 28.-The Journals Wash
ington special says: A few Democrats pro-
fess to believe that the President will disap-
point his friends and sign the Army Appro-
priation bill, but their opportunity for know
ing what is transpiring is very limited. Sec
retary McCrary says the President will make
q square issue with Congress on this bill, and
maintain that it is unconstitutional and an in
fringment upon his constitutional preroga-
tives. The veto message will be sent to the
House on Wednesday.
WASHINGTON, April 28.-There is no longer
any doubt that the President intends to veto
the Army Appropriation bill, for it was au-
thoritatively stated at the Executive Mansion
this afternoon that the veto message is nearly
finished and will be sent to Congress either
tomorrow or Wednesday. In view of this
announcement and of the certainty that the
pending Legislative Appropriation bill will
also be vetoed, there is much consultation
already in progress tonight among prominent
Democrats as to the proper course for the
majority to pursue when the deadlock actu.
ally occurs. Of course the matter will not
be decided without great difficulty, for there
are many conflicting views, and large pro-
portion of the Democrats in Congress con-
tinue to condemn all propositions of COM
promise; but several of the coolest Demo-
cratic leaders have this evening privately ex-
pressed themselves in favor of the passage of
ajoint resolution extending last years appro-
priations until December and prompt ad-
journment. This plan would readily obtain
majority vote in both houses by union of
the Republicans with the hard-money Demo-
Gratis, who wish an early Adjournment to pre-
vent further widening of the breach between
the Eastern and Western wings of the party,
which is likely to result from the continued
tinkering with the finances. But the soft
money men have majority of votes in the
Democratic caucus, and the adoption of this
expedient for escape from deadlock is
therefore still very uncertain.

REPORT on ELECTRIC LIGHT
LONDON. June -. 1879.

LONDON, June 10, 1879.
The Parliamentary committees report on
electric lighting says sufficient progress has been made
10 encourage idea that electricity has important
future for Illuminating and source of mechanical
power The electric light, in its present state OF
development, may be advantageOusly used for large
areas whether open closed but it is not far ma
tured as to with gas for domestic purposes.
The committee, therefore, do not recommend egs-
latlOn for applying the Light 10 private purposes. but do
recommend that no legislative restrictions be allowed
to impede its further development. the committee
think sufficient power already exists for applying ii 10
open spaces and large centres, but II such
power does not exist 1t should be granted
under proper regulations. They consider however,
that the time is not yet ripe for allowing private com
panies break no streets in order TO supply electric
light they advise that municipal authorities should
receive all possible help for public lighting by electric
ty and that the Legislature should be willing 10 give
all reasonable facilities extending the use Of the
electric hight where proper demand for II shall arise.
They consider that for lighthouse purposes the electric
light has established itself but they have not been able
satisfy themselves, from the evidence that electric
lighting is economical Is compared with gas.

The Character OF Christ.

This character, OF which Christ
was the perfect model. ia in itself 80
attractive, so altogether lovely that
/ cannot describe in language the ad.
mirstion with which regard it; nor
can l express the gratitude / feel for
the dispensation which bestow wed that
example on mankind, for the truth
which He taught and the suaerings
He endured for our sakes. l tremble
to think what the world would do
without Him. Take away the bless
ing of the advent of His life and the
blessings purchased by His death. in
what an abyss of guilt would man
have been left! 1t would seem to be
blotting the sun out Of the heavens
to leave our system of worlds in
chaos, frost and darkness.
In nv view of the life, the teach
ings, the labors and the offerings oi
the blessed Jesus, there ca n be no sd-
mirstion too profound, no love Of
which the human heart is capable too
warm, no gratitude too earnest and
deep OF which He is justly the object.
1t is with sorrow that my love for
Him is 30 cold. and my gratitude 30
inadequate. 1t is with sorrow that
| see any attempt to put aside His
teachings as delusion, to turn mems
eyes from His example, to meet with
doubt and denial the story of His
life. For my part, if thought that
the religion of scepticism were to
gather strength and prevail and be-
come the dominant view of mankind,

WHOLE NO. 1880



A short time sgo the hub of the
universe was visited by a terrible
thunderstorm, accompanied by a well
developed sample Of a Kansas tor
nsdo. Many lives were lost among
the shipping along the Massachusetts
coast, and especially in Boston har-
Dor. The damage to glass ia the city
of Boston was very heavy The
next day after the storm one firm on
Canal street reported the sale of
1000 psnes Of window glass. The
whole performance was without a
precedent in the memory of the oldest
native. The startling appearance of
the sky previous to the bursting of
the shower warned travellers and pe-
destrians to seek cover. Among the
many careless ones caught in the
storm was George B., young repor-
ter of the Boston Telephone. He
was caught By the shower on Han
over street, aud stepped into q door
way to wait until the heaviest was
over. George had company in the
doorway. There were two Chinese
washees from Howard street and
several less squarious looking individ-
uals, each and all OF whom, it would
be safe to say, had not for long time
back had any very close relations
with laundry The rain fell in tor
rents, and soon great hailstones
struck the sidewalk and rebounded
few feet in the air. Rushing out in
the rain, the enthusiastic reporter got
several specimens, drew tape line
from his pocket, measured them care
fully and recorded the exact figures
in his memorandum. Repeating this
operation several times, be attracted
the attention of some young clerks in
the Office up stairs, who broke large
chunks Of ice from the block in the
ice cooler, and threw them out to the
reporter, who measured them care
fully and recorded the result. Every
one 10 that doorway was struck with
the size OF ;he hailstones, and the
Cinnamon were exhibiting eyes of an
unusual roundness and prominence.
One Of the chaps in the Office acci-
dentally dropped the balance of the
block of ice from which the monster
hailstones had been Clipped, and it
came down and landed on the side
walk with an immense crash. IL
must have weighed all of 90 pounds,
and spattered the water right and
left. Just at this instant came that
awful crash of thunder tnat startled
every one that heard it. and of which
the paDers spoke mex. day This
was too much for JoLr Chinaman.
They both ran yelling o., the street,
in the driving rain, the last one saw
