Up in Manitoba there is large colony of
Nennonltes, and they are just now engaged in
a bitter and relentless war on the subject of
buttons The old.fashlon orthodox doctrine
the sect abjures the frivOlity of buttons and
compelled the brethren and sisters to fasten
their clothing with hooks and eyes. But q
progressive faction have introduced the world
ly practice of using buttons and button holes,
Just as the wicked do, and are denounced by
those who adhere strictly to the traditions OF
the sect as lmitators Of the vessels OF sin and
wrath, and enemies of pure and undefled
religion. The buttontes insist that there is
sin in the use of the modern conveniences,
but the orthodox party feel strong in their po.
stion because buttons are nowhere alluded to
in the Bible, while hooks and eyes are men
toned several times. The controversy
appears to be agitating the community to its
lowest depth, and is as serious as If 1t involved
the doctrine of original sin or the everlasting
punishment of the wicked.

The following snecdotc of the founder OF
Methodism has, we believe, never been pub
lished. Ii reaches us from trustworthy source,
and il illustrates in q remarkable manner the
mingled tact and piety OF that eminent man.
Although Wesley like the Apostles, found
that his preaching did not greatly affect the
mighty or the noble, still he numbered some
families of good position among his followers
Ii was at the house of one of these that the
incident here recorded took place. Wesley
had been preaching; and daughter OF a
ncighboring gentleman, girl remarkable
Tor her beauty had been profoundly Impressed
by his celebrations. After the sermon, Wesley
was invited to tins gentleman's house Il
luncheon, and, with himself, one of his preach
ers was entertained. This preacher, like many
Of the class at that time, was man of plain
manners, and not conscious Of the restraints OF
good society. The fair young Methodist sal
beside him at the table, and he noticed thai
she wore number of rings. During a pause
IN the meal the preacher took hold of the young
ady's hand, and, raising it IN the air, called
Wesley's attention TO the sparkling jewels
"What do you think of this, sir" he said, 'foi
a MethOdist's hand"
The girl turned crimson. For Wesley, will
his known and expressed aversion to finery
the question was a peculiarly awkward one
But the aged evangelist showed a tact which
Chesterfield might have envied. He LOOKED
up with quiet, benevolent smile, and simpl,
said: "7hs hand is very beautiful"
The blushing beauty had expected some
thing far different from a rerroof wrapped NJ
with felicity in a compliment. She had TIT
good sense TO say nothing; but when, a few
hours later, she again appeared IN Wesley
presence, the beautiful hand was stripped q
every ornament except those which natur
had given

HERR MOST'S PROGRAMME,

What the Distinguished German Socialist
Proposes 10 Do .Du ing His Tour of this
Co"n.ry.
New YORK, Dec. 1S-That an acuraie
idea might be obtained regarding Herr
Most's plans and his motive for coming
to this country. q reporter of the World
called upon Justice Schwab. leader of the
German socialists in America, at his saloon
yesterday. Schawb was found surrounded
by friends with whom he was conversing
in German with much animation, and
when informed BY the reporter that he
should like to see him alone, he replies I
br1squely he kept nothing from
his comrades, and whatever was
said to him must be spoken in their hear
ing. The reporter inquired regarding
Herr Most's future movements, and in re-
ply Schwab said: "On Thursday or Friday
at the latest Herr Most will leave this city
for Chicago, where he will remain till after
New Years. Sunday night public
parade will take place there in
his honor, in which all of
the armed labor organizations of city
will participated with a-ms:" sske the
reporter. Yes. with arms" said Mr..
Schwab, stesnly. "Why not with arms?
From Chicago" continued Mr.. Schwab,
ne VIII go TO Milwaukee and St. Louis
and then back to Louisville, Cincinnati.
Satinsville, Cleveland, Buffalo, Niagara,
Pittsburgh, Allegheny, Philadelphia, Bal
timore and Washington, where he is
to be received by President Arthur
and again come to New York
whence he will pay visits to all large in
dustrial centers of the East. You must
understand that this is tour of provo
cation in the cousse of which our distin-
guished guest will make appeals to the
people. He will go alone and wherever
he stops will be entertained by our
friends. He will return to England in
about four months. but not as Herr
Most. Do you understand me? He will
go ipcognitio. The English
parliament passed law
last summer especially directed against
him. which provides that all foreigners sus-
pected of being dangerous to the institu-
tons of Great Britain may be banished
without the form of legal proceedings. He
is connected with the Freheit as editor and
constant contributor, but has little to do
with its publication" Herr Most was
closeted last night till aqate hour with the
executive committee of 'Sirrates party.

GERMANY.

BERLIN. Dec. 19.-The only topic engag
ing attention here is the relations between
Ger many and Russia. Russian exchange
was never lower on the Berlin bourse since
the battle of Plevna than now. One hun
dced roUble notes Of the normal value of
$40 marks were quoted Monday at 1875
marks. The panic seems mainly due 10
an article III the Zeitung concerning the
massing CT the Russian army on the Cali
clan frontier. This is regarded in well IL
formed circles both in Berlin and Vienna as
absurd, but its effect on business
shows that uneasiness has been raised in
the minds of the public by what is known
as Bismarcks newspaper campaign. This
cansists of various articles recently pub
hshed laying stress on the purely dual de-
fepsiye nature Of the Austro- German al
lance.
The Kreuz Zeitung says as ali kinds OF
symptoms and rumo-s were reported from
Russia of tendency opposed to the ami
cable sentiment Of the czar and Ds.iers; it
was deemed expedient to throw out re-
m:nder that the present policy of Germany
has sufficiently provided for all emergen-
cies.
BERLIN, Dec. 19.-Freliminary prepara-
ticns for rendering the Weser ngvigable
for sea-going vessels have been finished.
The work, it is estimated, Will cost 30.o00,-
600 marks. and probably occupy six years,
but when completed will give an immedi-
impetus to trade between Bremen and
New York.
BERLIN, Dec. 19.-The Austro. German
alliance meets with the uumixed approval
of the entire German press. The Ger
mania says, the prolongation Of he treaty
will efectual!y bar Pan-Slavist intriguing,
Russia's expansion aspirations and French
plans for revenge.
BERLIN, Dec. -. The press continues
heatediy to discuss the relations Of Russia
with the German powers, bu. the excite
ment is beginning to abate. There is
nothing to show the sentiment of the car
toward Germany and Austria to be
hostile.
BERLIN, Dec. 19.-Eerber. Bismarck has
returned from Vienna, where he had gone
with dispatches connected with the Austro-
German alliance. Austria and Germany
arrived at an understanding in regard to
measures to be taken in view of Russia's
military preparations.
Baron Alexander Paul Rainminger has
been convicted of the charge of swindling
