About 1855 these came aAtranger % the
neighborhood oK nhe L 3 mlil, near Batavia,
o. somastour miles back af Moscows on the
Ohio river. Hefented of . farmer named
Abrams a 10y house standing on the bank
of Indian creek. In this wretched tenement
the stranger, David Hensley, lived alone for
three years. He Is said to have been OF q
cullen disposition, and never inclined 70
talk with neighbors, who all believed he had
seen better days and possessed large sums
of money Ii the Sumner of 1858 this
strange man disappeared as mysteriously as
he had come, leaving his rough furniture,
scaIty bedding and few cooking utensile UNI
disturbed. 1t was the opini. u OF most oi
the peighbors that Heusfey had been
murdered, Or, being connected with some
notorious band Of counteFfeiteTs, had sec
reilly fed TO avoid arrest or escape some dam
ger 'Bh st threatened him. After HeuBtey'a

EsHETIC CHRISTIANITY.
What Would Fishermen Apostles Have

What Would EBhermen Apostles hhVe
Thought of this Change?
London Correspondence
There is cant Of religion and a cant OF
culture, and London is developing = new
kind OF cant which combines both. The
Rev. II. K. Haweia is the result. A hetero-
dox parson in an orthodox church, he poses
as a secular preacher and his wife as an art
critic. In singular contrast with the hu-
mility of the original apostles, Mr.. Haweis
takes snowy house In st. Johns Wood,
paints it yellow, sticks peacock's fans In
its windows, calls the place "Amber
House." and permits his wife to give enter
tAinments in promotion OF her scheme for
reviving the Greek mode In female attire for
English laaies. This fad being, | sup
pose, somewhat played out, Mr.. HaWeis
has now rented the late Dante Gabriel Ro-
setti's house, In Cheyne Walk, Chelsea, and
the Hawies household 80 called tcnlture'
will now become more rampant than ever
But how the torthodox" worshipers in his
church reconcile all this outside nonsense
with their professions OF faith and his Us diff
cult to understand. He some time ago com,
forted them with the information that there
Is no devil; If he eau only promise them d
heaven, in which Greek robes and culture
will modify the decipline OF the seyerel
Christians paradise, he may yet aehiev'
even greater popularity than ever, both d
pulpit, oator and newspaper writer. On
day he may POSSIBLY aspire to become
Epenaioner on the natien's literary fund.

A PROPOSED MONOPOLY,


That is an attractive but somewhat
alarming scheme proposed at the East. It
is the purpose to hold a meeting in New
York of representatives of all the rival
sewing machine companies to form a
"union." The new corporation viii select
one machine, and proceed to manufacture
it alone. The Singer Company is TO be left
out of the arrangement, but will be asked
to agree to the fixing of standard price,
so as to leave profit of So on each ma
chine. This viii give virtual monopoly
to two companies. There are 300. 600 ma
chimes sold yearly in the United States
alone. At SO profit the yield will be
So. eco, 900, and the net profit So, coo, 900.
The capital stock asked for is S., 900, 600,
and thus the result would be the nice and
comfortable rate of so per cent. upon it.
1t is gratifying to learn that opposition has
arisen to this scheme, and thst it is likely
to fall to pieces because of it's pondereus
