The Rev. Edward PaysOn Hammond and His Work in Fair Haven. To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER: Please insert in your paper the following extracts of 8 letter of grandson of Rev. Dr. Blagden of the Old South church, Bos- ton, and graduate of Yale College, written to the secretary of the Y M. c. A., New Ha- ven:
 BosTeN, January 5, 1883. Bear Brother:
 write to tell you that Rev. Edward Pay services in Fair Haven, and I hope that you ! will give him all the aid 5ou can. He Is 8 ! man of faith and heart, and full of the holy ghost, and God wonderfully owns and blesses his work wherever he goes. God has chosen I him to do blessed work in Christ's dear name, causing him to bring forth fruit to his glory, and al so causing his fruit to remain. Get all the people praying for the outpouring of the holy spirit and working all together with one mind, heart and soul for Jesus Blessed Jesus :! Let not the people be start led nor be doubtful; but let them look over Brother Hammond's head upon Jesus and Jesus only Let them work with him heart and hand, mind, soul and body, praying without ceasing for the Holy Ghost; and surely God will open the windows of heaven and pour you out blessing!
 Oh, do long to see my dear old alma mater, Yale, shaken to her very foundation stones by tidal wave of Gods Holy Ghost power, and hundreds of souls born into his everlasting kingdom. And why not now Is any too hard for God? 'sAll things are possible to him that believeth," According to your faith be it unto you" Do get the people to understand that Brother Hammond comes as the ambassador of Christ. Let them be careful then ''how they entertain strangers ;'' for their stranger is one worthy of entertainment. Let them love him for his own sake and for our pre- cious Saviour's sake Then will they not 'tgrieve," nor s'quench the spirit !" And then we may expect great and wondrous things indeed to the glory of the Lamb! Oh
 let the people betake themselves to their 1 closets and pray, and Keep praying for the outpouring of the holy spirit; and who can tell the results? Work for great things expect greater things; pray for the gre0test things! s. BLAGDEN," Services each morning at 10. Prayer meeting in the M. B. church at 4 p. m.

The Maiden Who Meant Business {
 Breach of Promise.

The Maiden Who m6anG bUS1neSS on a Breach of Promise.
 There is young man in this county o1
 Wayne, State of Michigan, ss., who is going to be terribly astonished before the year
 1883 is more than month old, says the De
 troit Free Press. The law will reach out and clasp his throat just above the Adam's apple, and he will get such a shaking up and hopping around that he will seem to feel his
 heel beating tattoo on the back of his neck.
 They wers in to see a lawyer yesterday, Mary Ann and her mother. Mary Ann was little embarrassed, but the old woman was calmness itself. When they spoke about g breach of promise case the lawyer asked
 -s'What evidence have you got? ''Mary Ann, produce the letters," command ed the mother, and the girl took the cover oi willow basket and remarked that she thought 926 letters would do to begin on The other 651 would be produced as soon aa the case was fairly before the court
 ''And outside of these letters ?" queried the lawyer.
 tsMary Ann produce your diary" said the mother ssNow turn to the heading o1 Promises and tell him how many times this marriage business was talked over" s"The footing is 2l4 times" answered the girl.
 aNow tnrn to the heading of Darling and tell us how many times he has applied the term to you" s.If I have figured right the total is 9,254 times.'' ''I guess you counted pretty straight, fol you are good in arithmetic. Now turn tc the heading of 'Woodbine cottage, and tel us how many times he has talked of such 2 home for you after marriage" 'sThe footing is 1885 times.'' ssvery well. This lawyer wants to be sure that we've got case. How many times has Charles Henry said he would die for you ?"
 fsThres hundred and fifty,'' answered the girl as she turned over 8 leaf.
 .sHow many times has he called you an angel?''
 stOver Il ,O0O, mamma
 How about squeezing hands ?" ssOver 3S4, ,O0O squeezes. 'tAnd kisses ?"
 ''Nearly 417, ,OO0."
 There's our case!' said the mother as she deposited basket and diary on the lawyer s table. Look over the documents and if you want anything further can bring in dozen neighbors to swear to facts. We sue for S1O GOO damages, and we don't settle for less than an eighty-acre farm, with buildings in good repair. We'll call again next week. Good day, sir. '"

The Heads Of Great Men. TFrop,a tho IO1Iry1oI aR Gnianoa

It is usually supposed that men of great intellectual powers have large and massive heads but the theory, which Dr. Gilbert, physician to Queen Elizabeth, was the first to suggest, is not borne out by facts. An examination of busts, pictures, medalions, intaglios, &c., of the worlds famous celeb rites almost tends the other way. In the earlier paintings it is true, men are distln- guished by their large heads, but this is at tributable to the painters, who agreed with the general opinion and wished to flatter their sitters. A receding forehead is mostly condemned. Nevertheless this feature is found in Alexander the Great, and, to lesser degree, in Julius Caesar. The head of Fred erick the Great, as will be seen from one of the portraits in Carlyle's work, receded dreadfully. Other great men have had posi- lively small heads. Lord Byron's was ''re- markedly small, as were those of Lord Ba- con and Cosmo di Medici Men of genius of ancient times have only what may be called an ordinary or everyday forehead, and Hero dotus, Alcibiades, Plato, Aristotle and Epi- curus, among many others, are mentioned as instances Some are even lew-browed, as Burton, the author of 1.-The Anatomy of Melancholy Sir Thomas Browne and Al bert Durer. The average forehead of the Greek sculptures in the frieze from the Par thenon is, we are told, s'lower, if anything, than what is seen in modern foreheads." :" The gods themselves are represented with ordinary if not low brows.' Thus it ap- pears that the popular notion on the matter is erroneous, and that there may be great men witIac,at s;g headTa-;a ether words, 2 Geneva watch is capable of keeping as good time as an eight-day clock.

sENATOR HOAR


 One of the interesting political events of this winter will be the election of United States Senator by the Legislature of Massa- chusetts. The balloting will begin next Tuesday and if there is no choice that day the joint convention will begin the next day and continue from day to day until Senator is elected
 Senator Hoar's friends are making wig orous fight for his reelection, and they are evidently not at all certain of victory. Sena- tor Hoar is not as popular in Massachusetts as he has been, and some of his enemies have been very active and outspoken during the past few weeks. But his friends have met all assaults upon him promptly and skillfully and have done all that it as possi-- ble to do for him. There is much to say in his favor and it has been well and frsquently said. It is urged in his behalf that he is 8 lawyer whose opinions on constitutional and legal questions have uncommon authority even in the Senate chamber that he is an orator ranking with the first now in public life, and not merely an orator who makes oc- casional speeches. of superior power and finish, but one of the readiest and most ShoSOAfo oAtokHpOE0 uoDdLcIS III GtbAoE uOub6 of Congress that in the high and generous courtesies of official and social life, he is the peer of the most accomplished that during fourteen years of service in the national councils, he has taken leaders, share in the discussion of all great questions, and never without credit to himself and the con- stituency that trusted him that no one like ly to be voted for has an equal acquaintance with the public business, either with the principles involved or the specific measures CT present concern.
 This is all true, and the Legislature Of Massachusetts will show wisdom in -elect- ing the man who can best serve the State as Senator during the next six years. As the Boston AdUertiser well says: ''To substitute any other for him would result in substantial loss of power to the State and to the Republi- can party when such loss can be ill-aforded by either. It is as much the duty of the Legis- lature to choose the best available Senator as to choose Senator at all, and it is fortu- nate and high privilege to secure the coDtin- ued service of man 50 typical of the best qualities of Massachusetts thought and the best aims of Massachusetts civilization as is George F. Hoar."

I don't show the work I'm selling, and I've never been able to learn the idiots soIiloquy that explains the pie lures"
 Here he paused while the manager called for the cash boy.
 '"That's about the size of me and my busi- ness. The books right here-ffty parts, fifty cents part, plenty O pictures and big type for the reading, written by somebody other, and means ten dollars clear money to me every time I work one of. Do you take, or do go ?''
