No Dancing for Presbyterlans.

The case of H. Donaldson, Elmenton,
Venango county, Pa, who was suspend
ed from the Presbyterian church for
dancing last spring, was before the Clar-
ion Presbytery on appeal. The defend
ant defended himself in an argument Of
two hours. The trial consumed the en-
tire day and resulted in twenty-five not
to sustain the appeal and one Mr.. Gra-
ham, of Oil City, to sustain. The trial
was an animated one. The defendant
took an appeal to Synod, which meets in
Erie. The decision was surprise to the

NEW YORK now has two Senators
elected. On Friday last Hon. Eldridge
G. Lapham, at present Member of
Congress from the 9th district, was
elected to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation of Senator Conkling. The
final ballot was Lapham, 81; Potter,
40; necessary to choice, 6S. So Mr..

A GREAT GUN.
successful Casting OF a Monster
Accelerating Cannon In
Pennsylvania.

READING, Pa, October "a, 1884,
The casting Of a great cannon, twenty
five feet in length, at the Scott Works
OF the Reading Iron Company, in this
city, this afternoon, attracted quito q
number Of scientists, patentees and
ordinance officers from New York and
Philadelphia, Thoy osmo here by in
yitation Of the New York patontoos,
and aftera brief entertainment the
visiting party, numbering about
twenty. Eve, together with the officials
Of tho company and invited local
guests, proceeded TO tho works. On
their arrival they found two largo re-
v~orborating furnaces charged with
about 10000 pounds of metal. Front
ing the furnaces was a deep pit, which
contained tho mould for the great gun,
standing upright ready to receive the
moulton metal. Tho flask or mould
had two openings at the top TO receive
the fluid iron. AT three o'clock the
furnaces were simultaneously tapped.
The fiery metal from n ran through
an iron trough lined with hard clay,
while the metal from tho other fur
mace ran into an eleven-ton ladle,
with which it was poured into the
flask THE mould was filled from the
bottom, and by the careful pouring it
evenly assembled to the top. In six
minutes the flask was full.
WHAT is CLAIMED FOR THE GUN.
The casting, so far as is known, was
successfully accomplished 1t will re-
main asst is at present for eight or ten
days. and possibly longer, when it will
have been sufficiently cooled to be
raised to the surface and taken to the
machine shops of the company to be
finished. Ii will then be removed to
Sandy Hook, N. j., to be officially
tried. This gun is knewn as the Ly-
mann Haskell accelerating, or multi
charge cannon. 1t is a six.inch bore,
and along the bore are four additional
chambers for powder, the latter being
successfully discharged after the mi
tial charge of powder in the chamber
has been fred. 1t is calculated that
100 pounds Of powder will throw q
solid iron p~rojectile weighing 15l
pounds at least ten miles, and that il
will 60 through a solid mass o wrought
iron nearly two feet thick. The in

eclipsing the celebrated 100-ton Arm

the same manner as a breech-loader

pounds of powder. The chamber il

ity of 5000 feet per second is claimed
as attainable with the new gun.

form the Irishman's beau ideal Of the
Saxon. So deep rooted is this con-
tempt and so thoroughly convinced
are the Irish in their notion Of Eng
lish inferiority in courage, intellect,

that II they were only partially armed,

1t was With both surprise and regret

nan as the Reverend d. Wilson an
nounce, in his missionary address at
.Caruthers Hall, Saturday evening, his
belief that the myriads Of Pagans who
had never heard the name of Jesus
Christ are doomed to everlasting
damnation. This hideous doctrine is
only p~aralleled by the monstrous
dogma of Jonathan Edwards, that hell
is full Of Infants not a span long,"
and that God will require Christian

Of their children writhing in the
flames of eternal torment. How any

The foreman of a Montreal paper is
in trouble. In making up his forms,
he mixed an article on Catholic ad-
vanees in Africa with a recipe for
making tomato catsup, and has been
lodging the editorial shotgun ever
since. As published the article reads:
THE Roman Catholics claim to be
making material advances in Africa,
particularly in Algeria, where they
have $1,000 adherents and a mission
airy society for Central Africa. During
the past three years they have OBJ
tanned a firm footing in the interior Of
the continent, and have sent forth
several missionaries into the equatorial
regions. They are accustomed to be-
gin their work by buying heather
children and educating them. The
easiest and best way to prepare them
is TO first wipe them with a clean
towel; then place them in a dripping
pan and bake them till they are ten
der. Then you will have no difficulty
in rubbing them through a sieve, and
will save them by not being obliged
to cut them in slices and cook for
