Worth Trying Elsewhere.


The prevalent disinclination to attend
the ministrations of the sanctuary is be-
walled by the clergy generally. The
pulpits and the religious press are dis
cussing the matter, and are ehdeavoring
to arouse religious people to more faith

in one of the churches of Cincinnati

very meager, even bald, form of religi-
Gus exercises and music. As a result,
the morning exercises are usually well
attended, while at night beggarly ar
ray of empty benches is presented. The

stead of the usual sermon, gave an eve

the exception of the elaborate instru-
mental prelude, which was written for
orchestra, was given. The usual hour
of evening service was thus made
an unusually delightful one, and doubt
less few persons left the house at the
close but felt ennobled and better beings.
The church proposes next to give Ros-
sini's "Stabat Mater" as an evening ser
vice of song, and thus occasionally in
tersperse the music of the great masters
with the sermons Of the preacher. The
effect of this will be to attract from the
streets and other places many persons
who would not otherwise attend the
church, and to do them and the church
and society good.

Elisha Brackin. one of our oldest and
richest men, died last week. Warden
Barrett, who was long a resident of this
township, died in Harrisville at the same
time. We believe they were both mem
bers of the Wilbur Society of Friends.
The infant, aged one week, child OF
A. McComas, is dead; his wife Ida, nee
Crymble. is lying at the point of death
with very slight prospect of recovery
Mrs. T. Pyle is still in a very low cOndi-
tion, with little prospect of recovery
Daniel Harris is very low with pneumo-
nia.--Alice, aged 3 years, youngest
daughter of Jas. Beck, was buried since
we last wrote you. ''She was a fail
flower early gathered to adorn the Mas
ter's crown"
A large force of hands are engaged in
planting line wire fence through the
lands of Denham and Stilwell, for the
protection of the T. V. r.
The Sisters of Charity called on the
hands of the 7. V. r. last week, and re-
ceived their contributions.
Extra inducements will be offered to
a capitalist to build a mill at Barton's-
this is good opening.
We are informed that firm from
Quincy, on the B. 6 O., have contracted
with our neighbors for a large amount
of coal territory. The contract price
amounts to about 1-15th of mill per
bushel, or about Is cents per thousand
bushels. Certainly that is cheap enough.
They expect to commence work imms-
diately. -
