SOMETHING ABOUT DOGS.

During a terrible storm in Califor-
MIA, the following interesting incident
occurred:
On the morning of the tempest,
two wagoners, James McDermott and
companion, started from Camp
Robinson for Sydney. They became
separated, and were lost.
After some time, Mr.. McDermott
was found under the following cir
cumstances He had wandered for
twelve days, accompanied by two
dogs, without food of any kind, ex-
posed to the storm day and night,
sleeping without shelter or covering
on the cold ground, and had wasted
away to a mere skeleton. To add to
his sufferings, one day he saw some
cowherds, but was too weak to call
loud enough to attract their atten-
ton, aud like shipwrecked seaman
who sees sail approach, but before
it comes within hailing distance bears
away again and disappears, he saw
them pass from him.
But at length these same cowherds
heard a faint barking or yelping like
that of dogs, and, following the
sound, came to them. The dogs
were also reduced to skeletons, an(
scarcely had strength to stand, be
ing in the last stages of starvation.
The men threw them some meat
but instead of eating it themselves
they picked it up in their mouths
got on their trembling limbs
and tried to carry it to thei
master. Thus he was found. Th
dogs refused to eat the meat give
them, although they were dying Q
> starvation, but attempted to carry
,, to their furnishing master.
Mr.. McDermott was carried t
: Sydney, and soon afterwards recoy
cred. The dogs were cared for g
a camp near where they were found
Mr.. McDermott in his weak stat
n talked constantly of his dogs, an
), begged for them to be brought to h
:. bedside.

THE SENTINEL.

Brooks, who was standing at win

in which the young corn was begin

the row; I have watched it forever
SO long, and it has not moved. Why

"Do you, mamma what is it?'
asked Ernest.
''There is a man coming across the

some of the other rocks. The one

''Now," said the little boy, ''the

GETTING RID OF RELIGION.

All attempts to get rid of religion
are not only vain, but ruinous, alike
to the individual and to the state.
Where there is vision, no revealed re-
ligion, the people become unbridled
and perish. Consider the creed of
the no religionists: ''There is no
God, no resurrection, no future state,
no devil, no hell; death is an eter-
nal sleep; man is thinking machine
governed by mechanical and material
necessity there is no real free agen-
cy = no accountability = no sin"
You see how their political creed nat
urally follows: That all coercive
government is a contravention of lib
erty that all separate property is an
usurpation; marriage a tyrany-all
marriage laws unjust: all Sunday
and all temperance legislation an in
fringement upon their personal right !;
they hold the right of individual SOW
ereignty, the right Of free love and
many other fantastic rights, by
which they mean to be in all sorts of
wrong, and come out as well as those
who are not. This is their idea of
liberty-to be loosed from all the re-
straints of good manners and good
morals, and all regard for the public
good. Hence all legislation that
would check their indulgence of pas
sion or appetite, or that would pre-
vent them from doing as they please.
- is deemed an infringement upon theil
personal rights-a relic of Puritan
D ism. In the opinion of these no re-

1.-THE AINSLIE FRAUD"

Under the above cap ion the Salt
Lake Tribune handles MIR. Ainslie in
the following terse style. The Tribune
has very large circulation in South
eastern Idaho, especially in the W. cd
River section and is a paper Of positive
unequivocal character:
Mr.. Ainslie in Idaho is having a
hard row to hoe He finds the odium
of broken pledges confronting him at
every turn, and the ghost Of his ILL
deeds haunt him, disturbing his rest.
The people of the northern counties
Of Idaho want to be set off to Wash
ington Territory where they naturally
belong, high and almost impenetratable
ranges Of mountains separate them
from Southern Idaho, whereas the nat.
ural lay Of the country, the flow Of the
rivers, and the course of commerce all
run toward the coast; it is a reversal
Of natural conditions to require the
people to 60 10 different direction in
their political affairs and governmental
administration. Heretofore, Mr.. Aims
lie has promised the people of those
counties that he would help them in
their wishes concerning thissbu, he has
not done SO; they will therefore vote
against him almost to man. But Mr..
Singiser is understood to be favorable
to the setting off of those couutios; he
should therefore receive the united
support of the people living 10 them;
there should be no thought of third
candidate who could not hope to be
elected, and the only effect of whose
candidacy would he to help Ainslie,
whom the people there repudiate. 1t
can safely he set down as fact tina:
those who want local candidate in the
interest Of separation, are secretly IA
voralle to Ainslie, but not daring to
sustain him openly, t'ke this under
hand method of giving him succor. As
to tn, general subject It the separation
Of those Northern counties, we see no
reason why Southern Idaho should op-
pose it; the settlers there want to go,
and they will 80 eventually. Opposi.
ton thereto might delay the matter,
and create unnecessary hard feeling,
but it is an inevitable iinality; there is
no use opposing j., and no material in.
terest in the way.
The Tribune is wholly wrrg when
it says the movers for the third candi-
date were secretly for Ainslie, as owl
dence of which The whole Independent
convention, to . man. have accepted
Sinsiser upon the platform Of annexa-
ton SO soon a. announced. In other
matters the Tribune is right.

There died yesterday at San Quentin
the Rev. Noah Burton, a Presbyterian
divine of Marin county, who has for
many years been an unpaid, but, never
theless, faithful servant of his Master
in the PRONUNCIATION of religious truth
among the convicts at the State Prison.
The deceased lived upon a small farm
in the vicinity Of that institution, but
much of his time was spent in the cells
Of the prison. He was affectionately
known among the inmates as Father
Burton. During the last few years it
has been his custom to send to the pris-
oners at Christmas time present of 90
or more barrels of apples grown On his
own little farm. Recently his failing
health rendered it quite burdensome to
continue his visits to the prison, so he
took quarters there by invitation, where
he could see and still carry on his noble
work. OF him and his labors the
scriptures say truly, "The memory of
the just is blessed. "-S +. Post

1t is said that the governing author
tiles of the Protestant Episcopal Church
in Maryland have declined to ordain a
young colered graduate Of Northern
Biological seminary. This colored
student was anxious to enter into the
ministry in State where there was a
large negro population. No reason is
specified for the refusal, but the infer
ence is that the white Episcopal clergy
men did not care to have as an associate
a member of colored race. 1t is not
our purpose to dissect the motives
which animate any religious denomi-
nation in managing its affairs, but at
time when there is more than usual
anxiety among religious people as to
the decadance of faith, the GOODNESS in
ecclesiastical affairs, the want of energy
and zeal in the cause of religion, it is

An Original Spirit -Rapper.

1
The death of H. d. Jencken, cele'
brated London barrister, member OF
the Royal Institute and Fellow of Royal
Geographical Society, and who was the
husband of Kate Fox, the youngest of
the Fox sisters, brings to mind these
once celebrated founders Of spirit-rap-
pings. The Rochester Democrat, in
which city they first began their man
ifestations thirtyfour years ago, says
of them --...
Mrs. Katie Fox Jencksen has not
been a public medium since her mar
rage but the sounds, if desired, her
friends assert, come quite as freely as
in her younger days. 1t is the same
with the older sister, Mrs. Underhill,
formerly Mrs. Fitch of New York city.
She has entirely abandoned medium
ship in any public may for the last fif-
teen years. 1t is said the raps can be
produced with either Mrs. Underhill
or Mr.. Jencksen as readily and distinct
ly as thirty years ago, but since their
marriage they have been devoted to
domestic duties, and have only con-
scented to give time for the rapping
and other phenomena for the occasional
qualification of friends, or for expert
ments Of scientific Investigators. Both
women are reported to be decided
spiritualists, and profess to be as unable
to account for the phenomena that has
attended them, unless produced by
disem5odied spirits as they were thirty
four years ago. Mr.. Jeucksen left two
children, the Oldest of whom, it is re-
ported, manifests a marked degree of
the same power said to attend her
mother. The second sister Margaretta,
who married DR.. Kane, the Arctic eX-
plorer, shortly before his death, did not
hold any public seances for many years
after DR.. Kane's decease. Subsequently,
however, she visited Europe, gave pub
lie exhibitions there, and for the last
two years has devoted her time to
mediumship in New York and other
Eastern cities. She, like her sisters,
claims to have no power to produce the
sounds herself, but constantly asserts
they are the result of some occult
agency.
