Eighty Miles in Indiana Caverns," an ac- count published in Scribners of explorations by Rev. H. O. Hovey, of Fair Haven, in Sibert's and Wyandot caves, has naturally at tracted much attention in this vicinity. MT. Hovey is an old cave explorer, his first work in that line having been done twenty-five years ago, aud a record made of it in the Indianap- oils Journal and New York Tribune. Since then he has paid great deal of attention to caves. The explorations described in Scrib- ner's were made in company with Mir. J. Bar ton Smith, graduate of the Yale Art School, who furnished the sketches for the admirable engravings which illustrate MT. Hovey's arti- cle. These engravings cost several hundred dollars and some of them, as some of the readers of Scribner have doubtless thought, are as good cave pictures as are in existence. Other articles from Mir. Hovey's pen are soon to appear in Scribner's.
 Illness of NIT. John HI. Renham.
 MT. John H. Benham is lying seriously ill at his residence at Whitneyville. MT. Benham was prostrated about a week since with an attack which has partly deprived him of the use of his limbs, and since then has lain in 8 semi-unconscious state. Mir. Benham suffered 8 serious and prolonged attack of illness two or three years ago, which has left him in i'm pare! health, and his condition is such as to excite the serious alarm of his large circle of friends, though it is not impossi ble that he may rally. Mir. Bsnham is widely known in this city as for so many years the publisher of the New Haven Directory, and job printer long having his office in the old Glebe build ing, corner of Church and Chapel streets He was also vice president of the Young Mems Institute for years at the time that Edwin Marble was president, and when the very successful course of lectures were given for the benefit of the Institute at Music Hall For the past few years he has lived in com parative retirement at his pleasant residence on the edge of Whitney Lake.

might, not by rhetorical might, but by the power of the Holy Spirit are you to prevail The tendency of true spiritual life is to make it's possessor very lowly and humble. It does not matter how bad Gods law makes me, or how worthless you have told me amt does not fill me with despair, for I knew it already before you told me.
 This lowly estimate of oneself is no mean qualification for setting forth the doctrines of grace. But, says one, If one deems himself worthy to declare this doctrine of grace, must not this itself fill him with complacency and pride
 If we may judge by the experiences of holy men in the scriptures this is not true.
 Witness Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah in the Old Testament and John and Paul in the New Testament.
 These are some, though not all, of the features of 8 true spiritual life. Gentlemen, unless you mean to be godly men, trying to do Christ's work in Ohrist's way, turn back,
 do not be ministers; but if you go to your
 work thus it will be well. You will have ex-
 periences which nothing but the grace of God
 can keep from teaching you. 1 But if there are keen sorrows there are also
 keen joys.
 In the history of English art there is the name of Halser. He worked hard from his l boyhood and soon became famous. He was | moro than an artist, he was 8 religious man; 1 and though he left the impress of his genius
 on many 8 marble, there is nothing more
 worthy of him than the inscription on his
 tombstone, written by himself, "What was | as an artist was of great importance to me ID | life; what was as Christian is only of i'm portance to me now"
 | Do keep these things in your thoughts. Re member and try to be good ministers of Jesus Christ.

Terrible Accident.

Yesterday morning, between 7and o'clock, Mary Bennett, an employe of the Griley Company, in the new English building cor ner of State and Court streets, met with sad accident, and fatal consequences are feared. The elevator at the establishment is open, and only two days ago an additional precaution in the shape of sign at the elevator entrance was set up. ''For freight purposes only" Mrs. Bennett wanted to use the elevator, and find ing the sliding door down raised it up two feet and put her head through the space and pulled the rope, intending to lower the eleva- tor and get on board. She made mistake and pulled the rope that raised the lift, but she either did not notice the upward motion quickly enough or was too frightened to ex- tricate herself. The relentless elevator pressed her head against the door with ter rife force. One of the door panels was forced out and she then dropped to the paved bottom of the elevator well, distance of ten or twelve feet. Her shrieks brought assist ance and she was taken up stairs, conscious but in a nearly hopeless condition. Dr. Bellosa was called, and she was finally removed to the hospital for treatment. She has husband and two little children, and is about thirty vears old
