standing the hard subject, the discussion was
lively and entertaining. Mrs. Julia Coleman
visited the society and received a hearty well
come from her old friends.
Mrs. Greason gave an interesting account
Of Catherine Parr, called the first Protestant
queen of England; she, being the sixth wife
of Henry VIII, was fortunate enough to
survive him, though she narrowly escaped
being put to death for heresy.
The character of Henry VIII. being the
next topic, Prof. G. l.. Ebaugh presented it
in sd its different phases. Whatever may
have been the outgrowth of Henry's breach
with Rome, he certainly was not a reformer
in either faith or practice. The prominent
events of this reign were reviewed, and many
subjects of interest discussed. The pro-
gramme for next Monday evening is as fol-
lows: Erasmus and Colet, Mrs. Greason;

ported to Washington, when too late for him

feet that he had rejoiced at the assassination
of President Garfield.
called upon Mr.. Moser to say that such
was not true, and forbid the repetition of it
but he discourteously refused to hear any
thing had to say. L therefore take this
method of saying to the public that the as
sertiOn of Mr.. Moser is untrue and cdnxot be
prouen.
InImy own defense I must say that being
an applicant for the position which Mr.. Mo.
ser has held, have tried only in an honora-
BILE and gentlemanly way to secure my ap-
pointment, without speaking against the
present incumbent, passing by, without
resneting, the insults offered by my opponent
And there never has been sent, by my
knowledge or consent, any such accusation as
appears to have caused Mr. Ms defeat.
