In my last report l called the attention of
the Legislature to the suits then pending
against several railroads and telegraph COM

given. The suits against the Boston and
Maine and Portland, Saco and Portsmouth
are continued to await the opinion in the
Maine Central case, as the same question is

trust worthy source, and it illustrates in
d remarkable manner the mingled tact
AMI piety Of that eminent man.
Although Wesley, like the apostles,
found that his preaching did not greatly
affect the mighty or,.tle noble, still he
numbered SOME families Of good position
among his followers. 1t was at the
house Of one Of these that the incident
here recorded took place. Wesley had
been=preaching; and daughter ola
neigllboring gentleman, a girl remark
eable for her beauty had been profound
1y impressed by his exhortatio1is. s*Af-
ter the sermon Wesley was invited to
this gentleman's house to luncheon, and
with himself one Of his preachers was en-
.cl "a med. This preacher, like many Of
the class ut that time, was a man OF plain
manners, and not conscious Of the re-
Straints Of good society. The fair young
Methodist sat beside him at the table,

sir" he said, cor Methodist's hand?''
The girl turned crimson. For Wesley,
with his known and expressed aversion
to tinery, the question was peculiarly
awkwark one. But the aged evangelist
showed tact which Chesterfield might
have envied. He looked up with quiet,
benevolent smile, and simply said. '"The
hand is very beautiful"
The blushing beauty had expected
something far different from a reproof
wrapped up with much felicity in com
p]iment. She had the good sense to- say
nothing; but when, alfew.hours later, she
again appeared in Wesley presence, the
beautiful hand was stripped of every or
nament except those which nature had
