RECENTLY the press reports stated
that republican speeches were being
sent to Ohio under the frank Of Gen.
Ewing. II is nov ascertained that the
whole thing was caused by the ilitera-
cy of some of the new democratic APP
pointees- They found, 1t is said, the
republican speeches printed upon better
paper than those of the democrats, and
not knowing the difference folded them
and put them into envelopes which had
been franked with Gen, Ewing's auto
graph.

RELIGION, or the Advent system OF
religion, makes foolsof many men whose
light heads cannot Withstand the buoy
ant tendencies of unrestrained faith.
A MI. Munson, who has long figured
conspicuously in Worcester, has at last
got into jail as a result of his coming
down out of the pulpit one day and
| pretending to marry himself to a young
| woman, The Philadelphia Times, in
detailing the affair says Munson was
arraigned on q complaint charging him
| with unlawful wedlock, and acted as
his own lawyer, verifying the proverb
as to the character of the client in such
cases. His conduct in the court room
had a d~isagreeable air of hypocrisy and
Phariseeism. As the first witness was
about to the stand the Rev. Mum
son asked permission to offer prayer and
was down on his knees, saying sour
Father, who art' before anybody knew
1t. The court ordered him { oistop and
he at last complied, but only after X
pressing the wish that the judge might
be 'called to answer to God for this re.

a PertInent Qnestion.

There's a heap of philosophy in the
question which a Washington young
lady of the mature age Of six propound-
ed her aunttlle other day. 1t was af-
ter the story of the creation and the fall
had been related, and the young lady
had been meditating for some time on
the moral of it, when she suddenly
broke out with; "Aunty, after Adam
and Eve disobeyed God, why didn't he
kill 'em and begin over again." 1t is
not improbable that the question has
occurred to older people.
