TALMAGE's TRIBULATIONs.
Vigorous Kick Against the Pres
bytery, Whose Prosecutions
Have Passed the Bounds OF
Patience.

New YORK, December 3.-Mr. K. B.
Corwin, President OF the Board of Trus-
tees of DR.. Talmage's Tabernacle, sent
tonight TO DR.. Talmage the official an
nouncement that the Trustees lad unan-
mOuslv voted in favor OF Withdrawing
the church from the Presbyterian de-
nomination, and requested him to initi-
ate measures to bring about the with
drawal.
I'VE cannot anticipate DIR. Talmage' 5
answer to this" said Mr.. Corwin. I'VE
did not consult him about taking the
STEP but simply as body OF men hav.
ing charge OF the temporal interests OF
the church, we have said to him in effect
that it would be better for us tinan-
cially TO sever our connection with the
Brooklyn Presbytery. If he agrees with
us, then he will probably call meeting
of tbs Joint Board OF Trustees and Elders,
and Law the matter before them. II DIR.
Talmage does not agree with us, then we
will agree with him; but we remain on
record as TO our conviction on the
subject. Dr. Talmage will be guided
by his friends in the Presbyte-
rian ministery mainly. If they re-
quest him TO try it while longer with
the Brooklyn Presbytery, he NAV
do it; but, il his wishes are like ours,
they are to put stop to this eternal
nagging. Since the case has been print
ed we have seen more clearly To what
depths of meanness this prosecution has
descended. We were SO full OF other
matters on the trial that we did not feel
the full force of the tactics that the
Vandyke faction resorted to. When they
are put into cold type we see that they
would disgrace a Police Court. The
case, as has been printed, is garbled and
| can prove it, The Hathaway episode
of the trial, brought about by the
Moderator on his own motion, is
ignored as to the manner in which the
subject was introduced. This prosecu.
ton has passed the bounds ofpatience.

Beer Brewers Astounded.

CNCINNATI, December, 4.-The beer
brewers, at their meeting to-day, were
astounded by receiving communica..
ton from Amos Smith, Jr., collector OF
internal revenue, notifying them that
they must change the size OF their beer
barrels to conform TO the law as
amended at the last session OF Congress.
By that law they are taxed one
dollar on every barrel OF thirty
one gallons, wine measure, which
contains 23l cubic inches. Beer
barrels now in use contain 81 gallons
beer measure, or 242 cubic inches to the
gallon. This makes difference of one
and hall gallons to the barrel, and IN
wolves the cost OF changing the size OF
the barrels. No action was taken with
reference to the consolidation project.

Probably Fatal Assault

HUDsoN, n. V, December 4.-John

fle ensued. The negro escaped, but was

garded as fatal A mob threatens to
break open the Jail and hang the negro.

w. Il II. RAILROAD.
A Word for the Wheeling Creek
Route.

Correspondence Of the Register.
have conversed with a number OF
the substantial citizens OF Marshall
county, within the last two or three
davs, in reference to the proposed
Wheeling and Parkersburg railroad, and
| find that the almost unanimous senti-
ment OF the people living away from the
river is against voting a subscription to
the road if the river route from Wheel
inc TO Moundsville be taken. But il the
route up Wheeling Greek be adopted,
the subscription would be cheerfully
voted. This position OF the citizens OF
Marshall seems to me to be well founded.
The river route offers no inducements
whatever. | can not imagine IN what
manner it would benefit the people out
side of Moundsville. The b. & o. road
already affords all the necessary advan-
tagcS hy that route, and the construction
OF another line could not do more than
afford meagre benefit in the way OF
competition. Even to the people OF
MOundsvillc the creek route would be
preferable, for the reason that 1t would
open up to that town avast and import
ant agricultural section OF the county
now only accessible by bad mud roads.
True, the distance from Wheeling to
Moundsville by the somewhat circuit
GUS route up Wheeling creek would be
greater than by the river, but the adj
vantayes To the public and TO the COM
panv that the creek route affords, more
than balance the consideration OF dis
tanCe.
The respective merits and dement's OF
the two routes may be briefly summar-
lied as follows:
The river route offers short distance
and competition with the b. & o. road.
But grave obstacle in the construction
of the line is encountered at the
Narrows, which would have 10 be tun-
neled through almost solid rock. No
advantages, further than are now pos
sessed, would accrue to the citizens OF
the county living a short distance from
the line. For this reason they cannot
reasonably be asked to vote the needed
subscription.
The Wheeling creek route offers an
easily constructed line, save at the point
on the Fairmont pike where the road
would cross, which would have to be
tunnelcd short distance 10 strike the
ravine leading to Middle Grave creek.
4 vast section l country would he
opened to easy communication with
Wheeling and MoundSvillc. The road
would pass through one Of the finest
farming sections of West Virginia, the
vast products Of which would afford
good paving freight for the road. In
addition to this there are immense de-
posits of coal on the creek which would
be developed and shipped to Wheel
ING. Lime and sand stone also abound
and would find ready market here.
The route also commendS itself, for the
reason that it would pass through seven
of the nine districts composing the
county, thus ailording Il general benefit,
and making the proposed subscription
popular.
For the river route Marshall county
will vote nothing, but for the route up
Wheeling creek she will Cheertully vote
the proposed subscription OF Sl5O,OOO. !
trust the managers of the road will give
this matter their attention before 1t be
too late. MARSHALL
