%Ata meeting 10 Newark, New Jer-
sey, to aid the enforcement of b. tire
observance OF the Sabbath and the laws
against the sale Of liquors, Rev. Howard
Crosby was speaker, and he was afior-
ded an ppoItanily to show bis temper.
A German p-esert asked him il Whist be
WAS saying was logic, whereupon the
Reverend Crosby came down on him like
duck on June bug. Pointing to the
German, he said: "That is a specimen
Of the men we are fgating-men who
have not the brogue of their tongue"
That brought down the house, end theer
was long continued applause. The. pa
son was encouraged to add another, blow
which he did by saying that, if trouble
came, they would be svel int, the At
lartic over which they came. The merit
ing went beside itself over the crushing
remark, and the poor German who had
not the brogue off his tongue was annihi-
lated, mctaphorically speaking. He did
not, at least, want to know if that was
logic, nor did he even want to know IT
the sweet German accent was PLAYED out
in this country. As for the Rev Crosby,
he doul tless thought lie was whole
team with the dog under the wagon.
Sensible outsiders regard him as BIZ

A more important issus than any OF

Ed. SPIRIT: Having occasion to visit
Lewisville few days ago, when in con-
versation with some of its citizens in re-
gard TO the Greenback Meeting held there
recently, / learned the following facts
The correspondent from whom you re-

be yourself, and that instead OF there
being tDelve Republicans and one Demo
crat rising up when the voice of the
meeting was had. the truth is, t,oenty -ont
men arose-seuen Democrats and four
teen Republicans; and that the only truth
stated by your correspondent was that
the Democrats Of Summit cannot be
fooled. No, sir; the general opinion
among the true, honest Democrats oi
Summit is that they have been fooled
long enough, and will after this put thei'

to the number that stood up when th'

large majority was from the Republican

the hint when they saw that the Repub

Starvation in the British Army.
London, Feb. 3.-The arrangements
of the commissariat in the rear of the
army are in a deplorable state. Com
missary officers appear unable to for
ward stores to the front. Cavalry and
artillerymen and horses are suffering
from want Of clothing and food. The
people Of the country are sulky and in
clined to be insolent. All natives sus-
pected of bearing arms in Candahar
have been searched. The concealment
of arms are being punished. Four ele-
plants and 108 bullocks died Of cold
and starvation. The forward move
ments to Ghirisk and Khilati Ghilzal
are attributed at Candahar to the scar
city of forage in that neighborhood.
The camels there are dying daily in
great numbers, supply food having ar
rived too late to save them from the
effects of the previous starvation. The
troops are in good health and spirits,
but are beginning to weary of the mo
notony and hardships of the campaign,
and would gladly see it over and return
home.

How the Plague Started.

How the Plague Started.
London, Feb. 3.-The origin Of the
plague in Russia is thus given: A Cos
sack returning from the war to Wet
lianka brought his lady love q shawl.
which she wore two days and sickened
and died. The following four days the
other members of her family died. The
disease spread rapidly. the local author
tiles not paying any attention to it till
half the inhabitants died, and the re-
mainder were unable to bury the vic
Tins. When the epidemic had assumed
serious dimensions energetic means
were taken for preventing its spread
ing, and strict quarantine was estab-
lished, firstly in towns and villages,
shutting off streets where the plague
reigns, from the rest of the place, and,
secondly, by surrounding the villages
with troops, SO that nobody Is allowed
to pass in or out.
The panic in Russia is almost incred-
ible. Every class and station in life
have petitioned for entire cessation Of
all intercourse-even postal communi-
cation between the rest of Russia and
Volga. Letters sent from Astrakhan
and Zaritzin are not received by per-
sons to whom they are addressed. Some
people even refuse to take paper money,
fearing tine germ Of infection might be
