CAPT. CowDo, of river fame, has been
advocating his outlet theory of the Missis-
sippi before the commerce committee Of the
United States senate. His plan consists,
principally, of the opening Of an outlet
from the river below New Orleans, into
Lake Borgue, five and half miles distant,
the surface OF the lake being fourteen feet
lower than the high water surface at New
Orleans. The purpose is to lower the riv-
ers surface at New Orleans twelve or four
teen feet. This, it is claimed, will acceler-
ate the velocity of the current in the rivers
channel above and below the outlet, and
keep the water in the channel. The chan
mel itself will be secured out and deepened
from Cairo to the gulf. The whole of the
vast volume of water that now overspreads
the low lands and lakes will be drawn down
and through the deepened channel, by the
current within it. tits proposed that $780,
00e of the 81, 0o0,o 900 asked for by the river
commission shall be applied tottesting Capt.
Cowdon's plan, which, he says, lis like that
of another sort of salvation, was too simble
to be understood and cost too little to be
popular"

OLD MOTHER SYMPTOMS prophecy, "the
world to an end shall come in 1881, has
scared some people almost to insanity and
death. A young woman in Ohio read it in
village paper, and became very much de-
pressed. Shortly afterwards she was con-
vorted at p1otracted meeting, and became
jealous worker. Every night her shouts
of Joy commenced early, and continued for
haurs, during which she walked the aisles
of the church imploring ter heare1s to be-
ware of the coming events of this year.
She became monomaniac upon the ques-
ton, and insisted that she had had vision
since her conversion, in which it was plain
~ shown to her that the prophecy of Moth
er Shipton would surely come to pass. The
earnestness with which. she exhorted her
hearsrs upon the question succeeded in
carrying conviction to the hearts of many,
and no less than twenty more converts were
gained and added to the rolls Of the church.
The minister was placed in peculiar posi-
ton, but concluded to profit by ner strange
hallucination, and receive her foundlings
into the fold. The meetings have closed,
but the girl still persists in her belief, and
day in and day out continues to sob and
moan with sorrow for the unsaved that will
surely meet their doom before the present
year expires. .,, >4f 49,; tl'

A STORY, seemingly we'll authenticated,
came from Bismarck the other day that a
clergyman in that frontier city telegraphed
the marriage service to loving couple in
the far away dad lands" where no minis
ter could be found to perform the marriage
services, received their responsive dis
patches, and pronoudced them husband
and wife. The young people are not Sc
verely criticised, but the Philadelphia
Times says that, the clergyman who thus
performs what ought SO be one Of the most
solemn Of ceremonies is little short of a
fool. He goes it blind, and after the per-
Torrance is over issues certificate that he
has married two persons whom he never
saw, and concerning whose very exintence
he has no actual proof. Such an act is a
grave abuse of sacred Office and trifing
with weighty responsibility. All the evil
dence the parson has that the parties who
responded are actually those whom he sup
posed he was uniting in the bonds of mat
rimony is hearsay evidence, sent over the
wire, and not even submitted in handwrit-
ing. Should it be necessary in after years
for minister to swear in court to having
performed such a marriage his testimony
could not be given in such way as to
make it worth one cent. There are en- )ugh
entanglements already as to marriage legal
tiles without adding more. This practice
of telegaphic weddings should be frowned
out Of existence by all respectable ministers.
It is to be hoped that in this instance the
welded pair or the responsible treasurer
thereof sent the officiating clergyman
sufficiently substantial telegraphic money
order to pay him for his foolish deed.

Boston worships her old common"
but has come to the conclusion that it does
not possess all the requisites of first-class

a tract Of about 40 acres, six miles distant

great variety of surface and scenery, rugged
ridges, valleys and lakes, and nearly all the
best conditions for magnificent central
park, much of it we'll wooded with a good
variety of the best forest trees. 1t lies on

SECRETARY EvARTs says that he has
spent $40, 900 year more than his salary
for the last four years, and it is known that
ex-secretary Fish did the same. That comes
of 'setting up" the wine for the represen-
tatives of the effete monarchies Of the old
world. President Hayes gave them tea and
coffee, (good enough for anybody and
saved 100000 in four years. 1t is gravely
suspected that Mr.. Blaine will follow the
example of his illustrious predecessors in
the foreign Office, rather than that of the
president-and he can afford to do SO.
