The Republican, Game.

The following private letter is from gen.
tleman prominent in public life, and who is
thoroughly posted as to tho Maine situation.
he says: @
"The Republicans are gaining trick on
us through their halloo about fraud, usurpa-
ton, revolution, and the devil knows what
in Maine, without any justification what
ever. They are making these general charges
without a single specification. There is not
a specification which they can truthfully
make. They never will endeavor to
make one. They are holding pub
lie meetings they are bowling
through the press; Blaine is writing ed
itorials for the New York Tribune, or at
least debating their tone. Other prominent
Republican newspapers throughout the coun-
try are stating absolute falsehoods in gen.
eral way about the action of Governor Garce-
Ion and his council. The fact is this: That
the Governor and council of Maine would
have violated their solemn oaths of Office if
they had taken any other step or course Of
action. The Interpretation of the law under
which they acted left them no choice in the
matter except to obey or disobey
it's requirements. The, result of
their ebeying.the law is a fusion majority in
the State legislature. If the reverse had
been the result under exactly such action
upon teohnicalities, Irregularities, 'bogus re-
turns Cfor returns are bogus when they are
not properly signed and vouohed for mo
word of criticism would ever have been ut
tered by the Republican senator who is re-
nowned for Fort Scott and sunstroke, nor
echoed by any Republican in this land
The men whom they denounce and criti.
else with loud adjeotives and indecent
language are men who are universally
respected in the State and in their
immediate neighborhood among all who
know them intimately and those who have a
general acquaintance with them-men who
have been Landed for their probity; men on
whom the Republicans counted, or pretended
to count, for non-action, because they were
so high-minded; men who have never
before been charged with any suspicion
of wrong doing, legally or morally, and
who are now simply denounced because
they have not done as rabid faction in pol
itios would desire to have them act. Only
this and nothing more.''

Te Deum.
Benedictus.
Greed and versicles.
Introit-O! Holy Night.
Responses to commandments.
Gloria Tibi.
Hymn-"Hark, the Herald Angels"
Offertory-"Ne Ny God to Thee.n
The offertory, "Nearer My God to Thee,''
was sung in exquisite voice and feeling by
Miss Emma Abbott.
The services were conducted by the Rev.
E. 8. Thomas, rector, and he followed with
sermon, giving "The Story of our Sa-
vior's Birth" the text being from St.. Luke,
u:12:
"And this shall be sign unto you. Ye
shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling
clothes and lying in manger."
st.. Luke's story of the marvellous birth of
Our Savior was termed as exquisite as po-
city, and The whole bible account was read
to impress it upon his hearers. Following
this Mr.. Thomas thought mortals were apt
to question why the sublime announcement
of the Savior's birth was made to shepherds.
The shepherds of the holy land were person
ages of trust and Importance. They were
from the noble youth of the tribes and even
as symbolical of the Savior's mission, they
we're summoned to his birth.
The lesson of humility taught by Christ's
birth and his example were spoken of, and
on Ills Natal day all were adjured to reflect
and live accordingly. The sermon through
out was eloquent, and the utterance of each
word was freightsd with moral.
The congregation was very large and
taxed the church to it's utmost capacity.

Yesterday, three services, mass heing cele-

of St. Louis, French Catholic). Vespsrs

At the German Evangelical Protestant
Church, on Temperance street, the Rev.
VIM. Baur delivered an appropriate sermon
on the birth of Christ, taking as text,
Luke, 2-13 and IA verses. The service
was marked by particularly fine singing, the
instrumental music being furnished by the
organist and accompanied by brass instru-

ing innovation being resolved with evidences
of the GREATEST appreciation, and as an aid to
congregational singing the departure is
great improvement.
Ats o'clock Christmas festival was given
in behalf of the scholars connected with the
Sunday school. Two large trees, loaded
with presents for the scholars, formed the
centre of attraction, and the church was
handsomely decorated with transparencies

away the rubbish In the way OF financial In
situations. There has been too much Of this
sort Of business already, as IL Is, and 1t seems
to US we are entitled to expect an immunity
from further disaster. The present year will
long be remembered as one Of peculiar NOR
tality among feeble and rickety banking con-
Germs. Five or six Of them have exploded
with reports more or less deafening, and thus
purified the financial atmosphere In a very
marked degree. 1t Is to be regretted that
this consummation, which Is good and whole
some in itself, could not hive been effected
without SO much distress and suffering to
innocent people, and that the whole burden
could not have fallen where 1t belonGed-upon

OF these affairs Is, that their destruc-

be the incurable folly OF this class Of people

We insist that our next Legislature ought

sort would gradually bring about better
