Cricket Ground was the best of the match De-
tween the Australians and the Americans. In
the first part of the sport the home team ana
so well that the Australians had to go to the
bat and only won the game by seven wickets'
Considering all things, this was not q ren''irh-
able victory. 1t must he said, however, tn"V
when the play first began the VISITORS diu HUI

The outcome of the election in Ohio cannot
h. known for several days. The canvass has
been made largely on temperance questions,
and both parties have deem mnch IN the dark
rs TO the probable effects Of the new issues
upon tho voters. The Republicans, while hope
full have all along feared adverse re-
suits, so many uncertainties having en-
tered into their work. The dispatches ND
to late hour last night indicated
small Democratic majority on the State ucket
and a probable Republican loss of some
congressman. The first news. however, Is
likely to be the most unfavorable, as the
earliest returns come from the cities, where
the rum element is strongest.
Perhaps the State Committee can tell why
they made so light and frivolous nomination
for Congressmana t-Large; sbut no reason ap-
pears on the surface. 1t loOks rs if the Committee
couldnot find any body else to take Mr.. Hepburn's
cast-off honors, and thought MIR. Carroll
might as well have the notoriety which the
choice bestows if he wanted IT, The selection
certainly was not made with the idea OF
strengthening the ticket. Perhaps the Admins
tration men thought it was no use to try to
do that At least they know now that nothing
is to be expected of the candidate. In his
specch of acceptance, Mr.. Carroll says: =" |
4" shall make the canvass i'll my own way and on
any own responsibility, without favor from
q the State Committee, and without taking OH
amyself any of the burdens of the canvass.

you desire me to take it on an independent

The withdrawal of Mr.. Beecher from the
Association of Congregational Churches, with
which he has so long been connected, will
cause sorrow rather than surprise among many
OF his ola ITleUuS II Has loHS oCch hiio"h
that the pastor of Plymouth Church cared little
for the distinctions between orthodoxy and
heterodoxy, and he has the courage Of his con-
victions. Even his enemies must respect hlr.
Beecher for the step he has taken. He does
not wish that any man or association OF tmen
shall be responsible for his views. The points
on which Mr. Beecher differs from his brethren
touch the Atonement and Future Punishment.
His theory of the former is the moral influence
theory. He cannot think that punishment
after death is endless. Mr.. Beechers with
drawal will not spread so much CONSERVATION
among many orthodox believers as the con-
6ition of things which his action has disclosed.
There was strong feeling expressed in the
association that the Plymouth Church
preachers views were not so different from
those held by many members as to make his
withdrawal necessary.
