The convivial habits of President Az
thur are causing the representatives of
the Free-will Baptists of Minnesota more
or less anxiety. In the General Confer
ence in session at Minneapolis, q COM
mittec ON temperance reported on Tues
day resolution indorsing the cold-wa-
ter record of r. B. Hayes and his wife
Lucy, while temporarily residing in the
White House, and declaring that the
committee "saw, with growing alarm,
the use of intoxicants by President Ar
thur" The report created something
of a disturbance, and an effort was made
to strike out Arthur's name. After a
very hard fight it was decided to con-
tinue viewing with alarm" the course
of the President. This is a rebuke
which will doubtless touch Mr.. Arthur
deeply. Our understanding is that the
President is not drinking to excess
Like Gen. Grant, he has always ad,
mired cocktail in the morning, and
his fondness for dry champagne is pro-
verbal; but there is nothing to call forth
the alarm of the Minnesota Baptists.-

The Cincinnati IJnoes-Stdr, Republi-
can, says: The election returns of Ohio
and Iowa, are an interesting study.
Heretofore, as q rule when the Demo-
Gratis have won victories or made great
gains their boom was in the cities and
large towns. When the Republicans
have held their own or made gains in
the cities they have usually shown in
creased strength in the rural regions.
In short, the country has always been
regarded as the Republican stronghold.
1t is so in New York and other Eastern
States as we'll as in the West. But in
the results of Tuesdays elections we
see Just the reverse of this. The Repub-
lican losses were wholly in the country
precincts, while, as to Ohio, they
made considerable gains in the big cities.
The same thing is true, substantially,
of Iowa. There the Republican party
was unyielding in the larger towns, but
the Democrats gained heavily in the in
terror counties. These odd results of
Tuesdays political struggle in two
States serve to illustrate forcibly what
everybody knows, viz, that the United
States is big country, containing q
vast,population, ,.of various fdegrees in
telligence and curiously diverse ways Of
looking at their own interests. Furth.
ermore, it appears that country people
have come to be about as unsteady, po'
litically, as the urban population.

"Well, up near Fostoria there used to

sixth wife died on Sunday, was buried
on Tuesday and he married his seventh
wife on Thursday. The boys turned
out to give him a charivari with fish

other instruments Of awful sound. AT

''Lookee here, you fellers! Do you
know what you are doing? Don't you
know there was funeral in this house

New York Times: The civil rights
decision is not likely to have any con-
siderable practical effect, for the reason
that the act of 1875 has never been en-
forced. Spasmodic efforts have been
made to effect, and occasional contests
have been made in the courts, but the
general practice of railroads, hotels and
theaters has remained unchanged and
has depended mostly on the prevailing
sentiment of the communities in which
they are located. The question of abso-
lutte right is not affected by the consti-
tutional amendment or the decision OF
the Supreme Court. The colored peo-
pie are guaranteed against adverse and
discriminating action by the States, and
favorable action can only be secured
through State authority. This remands
the whole matter to the field in which
it rightly belongs and in which alone il
can be effectually dealt with.

imagine that they prevent the selling
of beer to the factory operatives. But
it is the same old story as in Portland.
There are no decent bars, but multi
tude of dives, in which gambling and
other criminal practices are combined
with beer selling. The Dexter people
have discovered a brilliant scheme
for overreaching the liquor constables
and obtaining all they want of the ar
dent. They import it in quantities from
Brunswick to Bangor, where it is al
lowed to lay in bond at the Custom
House. The importers sell the pack
ages, which are small, to individual
purchasers, and when these packages
are brought to Dexter directed to pri-
vate citizens, the constables can not
seize the stuff.

An indefinite continuation of the
mission of the republican party is pro-
posed by the Washington Republican
in the following:
The republican party and the loyal
people of this country intended that the
colored people should have every right
guaranteed them by the civil rights bill.
Until this has been fully accomplished
who will say that the mission of the re-
publican party is ended?
How long will the mission last? That
party passed the fourteenth amendment
to protect the civil rights of the colored
people in 1866. In 1875 it enacted the
civil rights act. In 1888 the republican
supreme court decided the civil rights
act unconstitutional. And now the re-
publican party is going to begin its mis-
sion back at the starting place. AT this
rate that party proposes to stretch out its
mission till the crack of doom without
doing anything.-Ne'cs Journal.

ga woman's glove is to her what
vest is to q man, This assertion was
made by a reporter, doubtless, who
speaks from both observation and ex-
perience, when he says that a man at
once attacks his vest button when agi-
tated or perplexed, giving occasion for
certain very expressive slang phrase.
A woman's vest does not admit of this
sort of pulling down." but her gloves
is always a source of inspiration and a
refuge from any embarrassment. She
smo0ths on the finger, rearranges the
buttons, drags out the wrinkles, looks
critically at the fit, and does dozen lit
tie things with her gloves that betray
or allay nervousness and quite sustains
the truth of the above quotation.

Christian Resignation.
Indo-European cOrrespOndence.l

Among the moving incidents of the
gloomy drama of CasamicciOla, we
translate the following from the Osser-
rdtOre CIttOlicO:
"a poor young woman was rescued who
had been buried for eight days under
the ruins of her own house. At little
distance from her was her son and a lit
tie farther her husband, likewise buried
alive and in the impossibility of extri-
eating themselves or helping one an
other. For two days she had talked to
her boy after which he ceased to answer
and she understood he was dead. For
four days her husband answered her, af-
ter which she called him in vain, she
was alone alive"
"What were you thinking about?"
asked the reporter after she had been
rescued and her strength little re-
stored.
about my son, she said, my hus-
band, and Almighty GOd.n
"What did you ask of God?'
ITO forgive me my trespasses, and to
make me die soon in order to join my
son and husband in heaven.'
"Do you distinctly remember every
moment that you spent there beneath"'
Don't | remember them? The first
days I called for help; but after the
death of my son and my husband |
ceased to call, and said the prayers of
my beads. At last heard the voice of
my rescuers, but was unable to make
myself heard. Then for one honr or so,
l thought they had given up the search
and the hope of dying came back"
"What did you think then?"
II thought with myself: Let the will
of God be done! Oh, | so much longed
for death! 1 thought that God
chastises here on earth, but he rewards
in Paradise. Oh! here on earth | haG
no longer any one"
"Therefore you feel unhappy for hav-
ing been rescued?"
"No, since God willed it so; and after
all one lives so little, it will soon be
over!"
A more touching example of Chris
tian resignation, we do not remember
having read of.
