In one of the churches of Cincinnati,
during the day set apart for prayer and
supplication for the recovery of President
Garfield, one of the ministers actually
suggested that the congregation also en-
gage in prayers for the assassin Guiteau.
The suggestion was acted upon, it is
said, and the prayers offered up accord
ingly. The Ceaasrciol in referring to
the matter said, at may be Christian but
it is quite too utter for every day life"
with which sentiment almost every one,
whether Christian or otherwise, will most
heartily agree. Praying for Guitesu can
do no good. he belongs to that class of
men whose hearts are full of deceit and
desperately wicked. Let him run his

Tn. Cincinnati Exposition, now open

Everything, almost, is in disordered
state, while many of the departments
lack considerable of being in readiness
for sight seers. The attendance this year.
30 far, is not equal to that of last season.
This, however, can be partially account
cd for owing to the excessive heat, but
moro particularly because the Exposition

The sixth Of september.

II the Presidents journey had not alb
sorbed public attention and made Tues
day famous, that day would doubtless
have been long remembered in many To-
calities for strange atmospheric phenom-
ena. In many parts of the east and in
Canada, the day was SO dark that it was
impossible to get along without arti-
fetal light. The m ost singular effects
thus tar reported, were in Troy, Spring
field, Mass, Providence. R. L., Boston
and Toronto In Springfield several
large manufactures suspended work,
reading and studying were abandoned in
some of the public schools, and in hun
dreds of shops and houses, the gas jets
burned with . peculiar white light In
Toronto, great fear of some terrible ca
lamity disturbed the peace of the
timid and superstitious souls At
o'clock. ths sky presented the appear
ance of an orange dome of extraordinary
beauty. Az sunset approached. the orange
streets were HIled with people gazing 1t
the weird spectacle In. every place
where the uAnsEal phenomenon was con-
spicuous, people recalled the stories of
the famous dark day." about one hun
dred years ago. when business was sus-
pended, candles made only q slight i'm
preston on the universal gloom, and
unreasoning ro0sters announced at noon
day fictitious dawn. Even the advan-
ced knowlege of to-day, while it laughs
at superstitious fears, and rightly attrib
utes to natural conditions such strange
appearances as those of Tuesday, cannot
give very satisfactory account of the
causes which produce them.

The P0mmsylvAni0 Railroad.
The Philadelphia Rsss says of the pub
lie spirit and marvellous management OF
the Pennsylvania Railroad:
when the Presidents wife was sum-
moned to the bedside of her wounded
husband, tho Pennsylvania Railroad
Company haahed her through from
Long Branch to Washington a.
though that were its daily business.
When distinguished surgeons were
needed for consultation special trains
were ready by the time they could reach
the stations. When special arrangements
were required to remove the President
from the malaria of the Potomac fats q
hospital car was constructed in seven
hours, . special track was laid, and the
whole thing was ready hours before it
was needed. Is there another railroad
company in the world that can and
would equal thisf The emergency great
er than the capability of this wonderful
carrier has yet to arise.

A Strange Occurrence.

Heard From After Many Days-Hundreds
 of Miles From Home.
 Dr. Robert G. Stanwood formerly princi- pal of the English and Classical school in Waterbury, who suddenly disappeared last summer while visiting his mother in Bruns- wick, Me, and was supposed to have been drowned, has been heard from in Brunswick, Ga, where he is recovering from severe at tack of brain fever. Friends of the Doctor in this city received letter from Mrs. Stan wood, who was with her husbands mother in Maine, on Saturday, which contained the welcome intelligence that Dr. Stanwood was alive and in Brunswick, Ga., and had suffi- ciently recovered from long and almost fatal illness caused by brain fever to be able to make the person taking care of him under stand that his relatives lived in Maine and re- questing him to communicate with them The writer stated that Dr. Stanwood was very weak mentally, but that he was fast gaining in physical strength and would soon be able to use his hands. He gave no par ticulars as to how Dr. Stanwood came to be in Georgia nor what had befallen him since he was last seen by his friends in August last Mrs. Stanwood wrote that she would start for Brunswick this (Monday) morning.
 pr. Stanwood was spending the summer vacation with his relatives in Brunswick, Me, and expected to return to Waterbury in September to again take charge of the Clas- sical school On the afternoon of August 25 he complained of not feeling well, and thought that row on the bay would do him good. He went out in a boat and this was the last heard of him until this unexpected news came. At present it is mere conjecture as to how he got to Brunswick

An interesting document no less than 112 years old was filed for record in the town clerks office on March 31st, and is now re- corded in volume 19, on page 76. It is 8 warranty deed from Amos Frost, of New Haven, to John Frost, of New Haven. The premises conveyed are described as follows |: "a Certain Piece of fresh meadow Situate in new Haven and Lieth in north Haven in a place Cald moakin hill meadows Containing in Quantity one acre and half and is boundd East on moakin hill, South on Abraham Kirby. West on mary frost, north on titus frost their meadow" These premises, then within the limits of the town of New Haven, lie on the east side of the Quinnipiac river, short distance below the new Sackett's Point bridge. The instrument is dated ''the 11th day of October, in the 9th year of the reign of our Sovereign Lord George the Third of Great Britain, &c. King, Ammo Domini 1769." We doubt if there is another town clerk in the State who can boast of recording so old document. The grantee, John Frost, Is the ancestor of MT. John H. Frost of Monto- wese, in whose possession the deed now is. John H. Frost is the sixth, and his son, John P Frost, the seventh of this family in direct line who have borne the name of John Frost.
