a PENNsYLvANIA HERMIT There is
don in the W i'd of Pike county, Pa. He
is 73 years old, totally deaf and lives in
"a cave, which he has rudelv fixed up for
habitation. His only companion is a
tame rat. His personal appearance is
startling. He is about five feet in height,
and his hair and beard are as white as
snow. His clothes are worn and patched,
and he wears Il waist band made of a
hickory withe to support his garments.
For defense against wild beasts he carries
long knife, as sharp as a razor, which
he manufactured by grinding down an
old file. He says that his parents were
Connecticut farmers. In early manhood
he fell in love with an Accomplished girl
and they were engaged to be married.
Her parents broke off the match by se-
cretiy sending her away 20 a boarding
school. This so preyed upon Austin'-
mind that he gave up business and started
out to find her. He Travelled from State
to State, but in vain, and finally when
his money was spent, he resolved to set
tie down in Pennsylvania. He fell into
the hands of band spectators, who soon
got what cash he Rad, and decided him
the barren tract of land upon which he
now lives. His astonishment when he
saw the "farm" that had been decided
him may be imagined. He found nothing
but a forest, and as storm came up he
WAS obliged to take refuge in cave in a
ledge of rocks. This cave he has ever
since inhabited. For nearly twenty years
he subsisted upon wild fruit and nuts,
and in the winter he trapped game and
fish. For three years the hermit never
saw human being. Previous to begin
ming life as hermit he was proud OF his
personal appearance, but he grew negli-
gent, and thick, shaggy bear d cover ed
his face, and his naiI grew long, far
down below his shoulders. From the time
he began his hermit lie he has never
drawn n razor across his face. But he has
grown tired of that kind of life, aud lately
told Philadelphia Times COZ respondent
that he intended TO return to civilization
to die. N. Y. San.

JUDIuoUs ADVERTISING. - a man was
donouneing newspaper advertising to

he, 81 had an umbrella stolen from the
veslibue of the church. 1t WAS a gift
and, valued it very highly, | spent
double its worth in advertising, but have
not recovered it," How did you woHd
your advertisements" asked Il merchant.
"Here it is " said the man, producing
slip cut from a newspaper. The mer
chant took it and read, Lost from the
vestibuls Of the--church Last 5 S,bbath

! gentleman who took it will DO handsome

merchant, ~ am liberal advertiser, and
have always found that itpaid me well.
A great deal depends upon the manner in
which an Advertisement is put. Let us
try for your umbrella again, and II you
do not acknowledge that advertising pays
| will purchase you new one." The
merchant ther took a slip ofpaper from
his pocket and wrote, "If the man who
was seen to take an umbrella from the
vestibule OF the-church last Sabbath
evening does not wish 20 get into trou,
bic and have stain upon the Christian
character he values 50 highly, he will

dozen umbrellas of all shades and sizes
that had been thrown in fiom the side

PASSAGE OF THE RED SEA.

Rejecting the theory either that the
Red Sea extended at this time as far as
the Bitter Lakes, or that the Israelites
crossed by the Serbonjan bog. Brugsch's s
theory DR.. Bartlett Identifies Al rood with
the Pihahiroth of the Bible and contends
that the Hebrews crossed the Red Sea
south of Suez by a passage fordable ut
low water. In preparing this passage
for his people God worked through
"natural agencies" Let us hear what
he says concerncg the effect of the wind
in making the passage of the Red Sea /:
The additional effect of the wind is at
tested by many witnesses. Tchendorf
mentions how the ebb is increased by a
northeast wind. Wellsted says that the
rise and fall of the water in the rabian
Gulf is nowhere SO dependent upon the
wind as at Suez that when long con-
tinued northeast wind is followed bv a
southeast wind the water suddenly rises
more than six feet, md the northern ford =,
which previ usly could be crossed on foot,
becomes impossible even for camels -
Schubert mentions that the water north
OF Suez is driven so much to the south by
strong northwest wind, that the guilt
can than he ridden through. NJ. de Les
seps mentioned to me the extraordinary
effects OF this kind which he had witness
cd in such storms as occur only at inter-
walls of fifteen and twenty years. He had
seen the northern end Of the sea in places
blown almost dry, and again had seen The
waters driven far over the land toward
the Bitter Lakes. But the most decisive
tes timOny WAS found on the elaborate
map of the Maritime Canal Company.

ence between high and low tide in calm
at only eight tenths of metre, also states

coincidence with ii in regard To the effect
of powerful winds on this arm OF the sea.
Suppose, now, this strong northeast
wind of extraordinary power blowing the
waters all night, it would make "the sea
dry land" along the shaIower region or
line ot the ford, leaving the waters still
standing in the deeper places north aud
south of the shoals and so "lhe waters

the destruction of the Egyplians, though
not asserted, is obviously involved in tne
method pursued, and is, perhaps, implied
distinctly in the statement that in the
morning the Israelites "saw the Egyp-
tians dead upon the sea shore" that is
naturally on the eastern shore, on which
they themselves ere, whittier they would
not have been driven by an east wind

A Conservative Voice,

Mr.. Murat Halstead of the Cincinnati
Commercial is gentleman who cannot be
reckoned with the implacable enemies of
of conciliation, supported itwith heartiness,
and had only words of scorn for those who
doubted its efficacy. Had that policy been
received by the Southern leaders in proper
spirit; had they sustained the magnanimous
course of the President by fidelity to the
professions they made in 1876 and 1877; had
they unreservedly accep ed the results OF
the war as irreversible, Mr.. Halstead and
men like him would have gained great hon
or for the advocacy Of wise and sta es-
manl'ke policy which resulted in the obliter-
alton of sectional feeling and the doing away
of sectional rivalries.
The experiment has been tried, and the
result of it may be judged by the attitude
now taken by Mr.. Halstead and his follow
ing. Naturally he would accept the most
favorable view, and gladly herald any signs
of wise and patriotic spirit on the part of
the South. He would, as proof of his own
political foresight, proclaim and even magni-
fly all indications of success, and exult i'm
measurably over any substantial results.
Pride, the desire to triumph over those who
doubted the favorable outcome of the course
he advocated, the zeal for public measure
which long and heated defense of it always
provokes, would combine to cause him to
look upon the action of the Sou'h in the
most favorable light.
Bearing these considerations in mind, Mr..
Halstead's sentiments, as expressed in the
interview elsewhere printed, are of the
greatest significance. The course of the
South in Congress and in the States under
their control excites in his mind the liveliest
alarm. He believes that the Southern lead
ers and their Northern Democratic allies are
determined to carry the next Presidential
election at any hazard. He believes that the
intention is entertained to carry that elec-
ton by fraud, and that if it cannot be car
ried by use of the corrupt vote of few great
Northern cities they intend TO throw out the
vote of States where fraud and corruption
have been defeated by the use of the wise and
necessary supervisory laws. He believes
that "the only chance of saving the country
from the completion of Confederate rule over
the whole of the United States is for Repub-
licans to elect the next House," and he de-
nounces the present Cougress as ''the crea-
ture of Confederate Committee" 1t can
scarcely be doubted in the light of this and
other similar declarations that the Conserva-
tive voters at the North are profoundly
alarmed at the present disposition and the
intentions of the Southern leaders. They
are beginning to realize that another Repub-
lican national victory is needed to shatter
the Solid South and save the country from
the triumph of dangerous and revolution
ary policy and the election of an administra-
ton owing its position to terrorism in the
South and fraud in the North. In the COM
ing contest the Republican party will be sub
stantially unit, for it's members feel that
only by united and most energetic action
can the country be saved from serious and
menacing danger.

THE New York Times, which has been
accused of leaning toward Tilden, has this
to say of the man of futile dalliances: Til
den represents all that is worst in Democra-
cy, because he has prostituted considerable
abilities to the service of its basest ends.
With intelligence enough to know what is
right and necessary in our finances, he sur
rendered to the infationists. With an ade-
quate conception of what administrative re-
form consists in, he has never lifted finger
for real reform in his party. 1t would be an
act of national patriotism for New York to
make his further scheming for the presiden-
cy mere ''futile dalliance." And in this
fact more than any other lies the strength
of Mr. Cornell's claim on Republican sup
