A PRA YER THAT EVOKED APP
PEATCE

A lady of our acquaintance sends
US the following, taken from the
Y. Y. lSmsof September -, and re
quests us to publish it, Our lady
fIiend-who is a model Of piety and
christian decorum-says she deprec-
atcs any boisterous or lrreverent ap-
proval of the sentiments expressed,
or petitions presented in a solemn
PRAYER offered at the Throne OF
Grace, but, if ever such a demons
tratIon could be excused or justi-
fed. she believes it was on that occa-
sion. We wish we could have been
present to witness the glow of en-
thusiasm on the fine old face of Gen.
Palmer, the president of the con-
vention, when responding, with a
fervent "Amen" to the prayer:
CHICAGO, Sept. I'm tie Illinois
Democratic Convention to-day, at
Springfield, the Rev. DR.. Gross, an old
time Baptist preacher, made the opening
prayer. IL was one that will long be re-
membered in this State. Following the
Amen" there was a perfect storm Of
applause, and many hats were thrown
toward the ceiling. 1t was as follows :
go Lord, we beseech Thee to save Us
from the devil. o Lord God, we be
seech Thee 10 save rs from Star route
AID other thieves upon the public
treasury. o Lord God Almig' ty, we
pray Thee To save us from Republican
ism For Christ's sake. Amen

DIR. r. G. Alexander, writing in
an English medical paper, says that
neuralgia is a disease arising from
debility; that it is increased by dis
ease mental or bodily, but it is re-
lievcd by food, and sometimes by
st;mulants. Pure air, night and day,
and perfect cleanliness are advised.

The dead lock in the lower House OF
the New York General Assembly has
been broken at length by the surrender
Of the Tammsnyites, and the election of
Mr.. Patterson, the caucus nominee of
the Democrats as Speaker. According
10 Albany dispatches the Democrats eau
cused nearly all Of Wednesday night.
During the earlier hours Of the caucus
the Tammany members adhered to the
demand for the control Of the commit
tees on railroads and cities. but this de
mand was finally Withdrawn, and they
agreed to vote for Mr.. Patterson for
Speaker, provided the other caucus
nominees we're Withdrawn, coupled with
the further understanding that they
would then 90 into caucus and abide the
result as 10 Clerk and the other officers.
Mr.. Patterson was not asked to give any
pledges and volunteered none, and 10 all
appearances it was a complete surrender
Of everything commended for by the Tam
many men. As they could only muster
six votes out Of the Democratic strength
in the lower House, it was presumptuous
in them to attempt to control the organi-
zaii0n Of that body. The organization

The FInaucIal Panic In Europe.

The financial panic in France, the ef-
feet Of the collapse of the Union Gecer'
ale in Paris. is having marked effect
upon the European money market. We
read that the Bank of England's dis
count rate has been raised to per cent,
a point not before reached since October
IA, 1873. The Imperial Bank OF Ger
many has raised its rate of discount to
6 per cent. and its rate of interest on ad-
vances to 7 per cent, while the rates
have been advanced similarly in ANS
terdam, Brussels and Vienna. The
stringency is general. and the
demand for gold for purposes of
liquidation caused by the collapse of
the Paris institution, is enormous. 1t is
said that during the month just closed
some so. 600, 900 francs were drawn from
the Bank of England alone, and the
latest dispatches inform US that steps
have been taken to assist, with cOnsid-
cradle sums, the sixty or seventy ''out-
side" brokers whose position is believed
to be precarious. Failures and suicides
consequent thereon are reported in vari-
ouscities on the continent, while in Great
Britain the long conflict between tenant
" and landlords of Ireland is bringing
its sure result in financial ruin to mer-
chants and tradesmen. whose bills the
landlords are not able to meet.
Commenting on this condition of af
fairs. the Baltimore Sun says: I'm q
word, the financial condition of Europe
can best be described as pauicky' Not
that trade or production is seriously at
fected as yet. They are not. But
speculators are having a bad time of it,
and the large demands for money &c
liquidate their accounts create high
rates of discount and interest, which
may embarrass legitimate traders for &
while. There will probably be no more
serious disaster. As large amounts Of
American securities are held abroad
some solicitude has been felt lest in the
pressing need of cash they should bt
dumped on the market, with the
result of a decline of price!
in New York. The danger can
not be considered wholly pas
as yet. a large shipment of gold from
this country is expected. Nearly 81,
100000 were shipped yesterday. No one
can tell how widespread is the disaster
from which Paris and Europe is suffer
ing. por how many interests are affected
As higher rate Of interest abroad makes
it more expensive for the Liverpool mar
ket to carry cotton, a check to specula
ton in that and other American staple
will be, it is thought, one of the imme
diate consequences. The morBl of thu
foreign financial news is one of caution.

Two Federal Judicial Districts in
the State

A bill has just been introduced in the
United States House Of Representatives
by Hon. n. J. Hammond, representa-
tive from the Fifth Congressional DIS.
trict of Georgia. providing for the divi-
sion of this State into two judicial dis
tricts for Federal Courts. There are at
present three such courts held in Geor
gain Savannah, Macon and Atlanta
and as there is only one Judge
for the district, considerable trouble
and annoyance and delay have
been experienced. The members Of the
bar, we understand, have long favored
such a scheme, and the passa-e Of the
bill will give general satisfactin7
Should the bill be passed, il is thought
probable that Judge Erskine will remain
in the Northern district and "a new Judge
will be appointed for the Southern dis
trict, which will include Savannah and
Macon.

The Boston Herald is of the opinion
that the Bay State is on the down grade.
Ii SAYS:
There is a good deal of truth in the re-
mark of the Maine Judge that. after all
our bOastiDgs as to superior civilization
and the enlightenment Of science, we are
not so verv far advanced morally. Take
Western Massachusetts as an example of
a pretty thoroughly civilized American
community. There are there plenty OF
schools, churches, and the average of
educational requirement is probably not
surpassed in the UniOn. Yet, despite all
these advantages, the criminal court re-
cords of Western Massachusetts do not
encourage the belief that the people of
that section are any better than they
were in the days when Jonathan Ed
wards held spiritual sway at Stockbridge,
and solid article of Calyinism was
preached from Williamstown down to
the Connecticut line, and beyond, too.
We should not want some sharp South
ern editor to mass in one paper the crimi-
nal record Of Western Massachusetts for
a single month.

In the article Of our issue OF Saturday,
abiding 10 the remarks Of Professor
Perry Of Williams College, Massachu-
sets, on the tax imposed on the people
Of the country through the protective
tariff on steel rails, It was stated that the
tariff cost the railroads Of the country
using such rails $500 per mile. when it
should have been 1000 per mile. It
was q mistake so palpable as to have
readily corrected itself, nevertheless We
prefer TO publish it with the additional
zero added so that the people may see
plainly stated the enormous bur
den imposed on them by this
one single item alone. Three thou
sand dollars q mile on every single track
railway using steel rails in the United
States amounts to an enormous sum, and
every farmer who ships produce over, and
every passenger vino travels upon. such
railways have 70 contribute Of their
means towards making it up.

The B0st0nians having failed to sue
cessfully carry out their plans for an IN
ternati0nal exposition, are now consOl
ing themselves by estimating how much
money they would have lost If the idea
had been carried out They calculate
that the Paris exposition cost 81, 100.
600. and the receipts were s. SO, 900,
leaving a deficit of Sc. 300. 600. and they
estimate that they could not have had a
worlds fair at less cost than that OF
Paris, and that the receipts would Ger
tainlv not have exceeded those Of the
latter. Hence they reason that they have
saved over Sc. 600, 900 by not having the
show. especially as it would probably
have been inferior to that of Paris, even
at the same cost

An apparatus for freezing meat has
just been completed at Queensport, in
Queensland, Australia, and the tests of
it that have been made are said TO be
satisfactory. The air, after being com
pressed, is passed into a receiver, and
thence into an expansive cylinder and
the freezing room, reaching the latter at
a temperature of thirty degrees below
zero. Twenty four hours are sufficient
to complete the process of freezing in
the chamber, where the meat remains
until taken on board the steamers.
Three hundred sheep were recently fro
zen with entire success. Arrangements
are in progress for the completion of
steamers with the proper apparatus for
carrying this frozen meat to England.
