in which art he has lately become deeply
interested. This exercise has taken such a
hold upon the boys mind that he rises in
the night in aeompletely unconscious state
and will continue to work on an unfn-
ished piece of drawing with as much
skill and dexterity as though he were
awake The other night he got up and
drew a head from a cast which he had
drawn on paper during the previous day,
on the wall of his chamber. In converse
ton, with the boys father, the latter said
Il can understand how somnambulistic
subject can go through certain mechanical
motions, but it is inconceivable to me how
the boy is able to draw with such perfect
attention to every detail-to put express
sion into an eye. for instance, and spirit
into a face" He exhibited some very
clever drawings by the boy, partially done,
as he declared, while the little fellow was
in this remarkable condition.

AFRAID OF THE TRUTH.

The Rev. G. F. Meredith, whose ex
pulsion from the Methodist church fol
conduct unbecoming a minister, has beer
giving his imagination a chande if the Efol
lowing from Peoria paper can be be-
lieved
Rev. Geo. W. Kent, pastor of the
Universalist church lin card published
in yesterdays edition of the Transcript
denies the assertion that the ex-reverend,
Meredith, is to assume the passionate of a
Universalist church in New Orleans. Mr.
Kent assigns several reasons for his denial,
chief of which is that there is no Univer-
salist church in New Orleans. He also
informs US there are but two churches of
that denomination in louisiana, and they
are not provided with any regular pastor.
The Episcopal church south is so strongly
tinctured with Universalism that the
straight doctrine of that sect has but little
following, and Universalist churches are,
in manner. superfluous.
Prior to his departure from this city
Meredith informed several parties here
that he had accepted call to the pasto-
rate of the Third Unigersalist church of
NewsOrleans, at salary of 50, 500 per year.
to others he stated the same thing, but
substituted the term Unitarian for Uni
versalist, and according to his statements
to different parties. the salary varied from
81, 600 to 80, 500 a year. Recent develop
ments have proved that Meredith, if he
did not actually lie, at least stretched the
truth to the utmost limits of its elasticity.
