President Arthur to-day and presented
him with an invitation of the people of
Cincinnati to be present At the Arborr

fear that he might be unable to give

anent railroads is in reality a move
against Gov. Roberts? If the alcalde
approves hostile legislation he does 50
against the better judgment of himself

dealer should buy i'll small, frequent

their orders to r. Z. Burnham, this

buy east. Burnham buys direct from

According to prevlDI.S announcement
the people of Stanton dn; vicinity, W, Ii
a number of people from a distance, ii -
sembled in the NJ. 4. Church, on Satur
day evening, the Goth ult., to listen to a
lecture by Mrs. A. l.. Washburn, of
Philadelphia, on Courage, the want
of I'll age" ana to a poem from her pen,
entitled, "Belshazzar's Feast" together
with several tiue selections of music by
the choir The lecture and the poem
both proved mastery literary produc-
tions, both as to style and substance.
The lecture was on far higher plane
oi thought than would probably be sug.
grsred o most minds in advance by the
title. |, was skiltully introduced by
a description Of An all pervading eyil
which had been found under the sun,
which after careful effort to furnish
it with suitable name, was found to
be not really, any positive thing, but a
want--a want of courage. The lecture
carried the hearer through panoramic
views, and TO the borders of vistas OF
untold evil, all of which find their
source in this all pervading want.
The Poem also was one Of exception
al excellence, and we think will find a
high place in the poetic literature OF the
age.
The people, by well filled houses, also
showed their appreciation of two Bible
Readings by Mrs. Washburn, on the
Sabbath following. These efforts
throughout were intensely interesting
and pleasing, but eminently practical
and ufeful, and we feel like commend
ing Mrs. w. to the attention of all who
wish to be at once entertained and in
structed upon the most truly entertain
ing, exalting and practically useful

that Mr.. Gould has stated to his friends

Magazine Guns.

WASHINGTON, Oct 3.-The board of
army officers designated to examine
into the merits Of the different maga'
zine guns have just concluded their re-
port and transmitted it to the Secretary
of War The tests of the different guns
were commenced in the early part OF
Jaly, 1881, and included every maga-
zine rifle brought before the board.
The Lee gun, No. 36, the Cbatfee' Reece,
No. 80, and the new Hotchkiss, No "a,
representing the different systems OF
the detachable and fixed magazines,
passed these tests in satisfactory
manner, possessing in a remarkable
degree efficiency as single leaders, safe
ty, ease OF loading, rapidity of fire, en-
durance, moderate weight, and simpli-
city of construction. The board, there
f re, regards them a. suitable for the
military service, and recommends them
in the order named. On account OF the
novel aud meIitOrinus features or the
Spencer Lee, No, 80, and its record
made before the board, especially for
rapidity with accuracy, IT is recon-
meLded that the utaCturels be IN
vited TO produce models embodylng
suggestions of the board as to weight,

partment with view to a trial OF n
limited number in service. Secretary
Lincoln has not yet finally passed on
