A RITUAL FOR MErnopIsTs -Balti.
more, April 29.-There of considerable talk
IN the Methodist Church circles OF this city
over new departure made by the Mount
Vernon Church, the most fashionable aud
the wcalthicS: congregation Of Blltimorr.
ihi' Is tho church of which the Rev
Thomas Guard was pastor at the time of
his death. The Rev Dr. Fclton, formerly
OF ST. Louis, is his successor, aud he has
led the new movement, which has resulted
IN the introduction ola ritual somewhat
on the Episcopalian order This ritral
was used for the first time at the service
to day, and l:tlc else was talked about by
the congregation. 1t includes the chant
OF tho - 0torIu -ft.s...- ,''>,.-, 4ss-.t,v,
the recital by the congregation of the
Apostles Creed. Although printed cards
were placed in the pcws, giving the order
OF service, yet there were some slight
bitches, and at one point the pastor was
obliged to ask the congregation to rise to
continue the service. DIR. Fclton spoke Of
the objection to tho ritual which had been
made by some, and said that il, after fair
trial, it did, not prove satisfactory it would
be discarded. 1t has been unanimously
adopted by the Board Of Trustees of the
church, but some of the members object to
1t, viii many Of the old.timc Mcthodsts
OF other churches have protested against it
as step toward Episcopalianism. One of,
the Methodist Church papers horo has
condemned it in plain terms. The ritual
however, is authorized by the Book of
Discipline, and it is used by several Meth.
odist churches in other large cities

tiplied, and looking at it only in the
light of pecuniary waste, of destruc-
ton to business interests, of its par
alyzlng influence in all directions,
and it outranks all other questions.
But it does more than that, it strikes
at the heart of the Republic in the
ruin of its children; and every en-
couragement to the whisky traffic,
such as is implied in the Extension
bill, is weakening of moral infu-
ence and a waste of moral power that
tends to the ruin Of humanity and
thereby to the destruction of the Re-

ONE day last week petitions con-
tanning 157, 1852 names were presented
in the Ohio House Of Representatives,
asking that a prohibition amendment
be submitted to a vote Of the people.
There were the names Of Is, ,979 voters
and 1888 women. And yet the leg
islators have not honesty or sense
enough to heed the request Of this
large portion Of our people. No one
is asking for the submission of Ii.
cense proposition for the third time
and yet most of these wise (D men
seem incapable of rising higher than
to work for the liquor interest. II
reminds us Of the figure in the New
Testament where child asks for 6
fish and is given a serpent-asks fol
bread and is given stone.
What we say about these stupid
two-legged asses, does not apply to al
Of the members Of the House. There
was caucus of Republican members
and some of them seemed to have
sense enough to know what is right
and to comprehend the situation
Here is one extract taken from the
report Of the proceedings:
Mr.. Jones, of Jackson, believed that
the Prohibition element ought to be
regarded, and that in Difference to
that large element in the Republican
party he favored the submission of a
prohibition amendment.

The writer for the Portsmouth
Times, 90. Sutton, we think who is
giving some war sketches, says:
Greenwood station-house, filled with
bacon, (which the confederates had
gathered up through the country

back four miles and remained on
picket, the writer sitting on his horse
the entire night, in severe rain. The
only living person we seen or heard
the entire night, was Cyrus Willis, of
Jackson. who in lieu of a countersi gn,
passed us canteen filled with apple
jack.

I want to speak of a member of
our company who enlisted in Jackson,
but was a native of Pennsylvania
Everybody in the regiment knew Geo.
Fullerton, and when he visited a
house for forage, no one else would
stop there. Fullerton was allowed an
extra horse for the purpose Of carry
ing one days rations for himself.
Comment would be unnecessary.
On a former occasion Fullerton's s
horse gave out, and as quite number
of the boys were already dismounted,
he had to join them.
Our rations had given out, and the
country through which we were
marching afforded literally nothing
in the way of provisions.
One evening, footsore and weary,
Fullerton got near the hospital corps.
The latter's forager's had found some
-four and meat, and were having a
happy time as they gathered around a
bounteous supply Of "slapjacks,"
meat and coffee.
Fullerton sat off few steps unno-

AND now we are told that the burn
ing of the Berditschef circus month
ago was due in large measure to the
fact, that it being New Years day,
half the audience and all the fremen
were drunk. And yet there are peo-

men by curtailing their right to sell
and drink whisky!NeVark Ameri-

There are such fanatics in all parts

ONE of the ablest papers on our

man Of brains and honesty, is the
Newark american. We take the fol-
lowing from the last issue Of that
paper:
Republicans in Congress who have
been pushing the bill for the exten-

public to understand that it is an
economic and not temperance ques-

Importance to-day as the temperance
question. Putting aside the question

-Atlast with a sigh, he says; Il wish
that I was Lazarus"
This drew the attention of the
squad to the speaker, when one of
them asked him why he asked that
The reply was, Lazarus ate the
crumbs that fell from the rich mans
table, but those 'slap-jacks' don't
crumb worth d-n."
Fullerton got a good supper, and
there were no "crumbs" left.
Many of our citizens will remember
Fullerton. Before he enlisted here,
and got his army clothing on, he wore
a stove pipe hat, and used to play
around with the small boys. He was
an odd creature.

CAPT. A. Fl. BoGARDUs was defeated
in a shooting match at Louisville,
Ky, on last Friday. And how, think
you, was this trial of skill made in
this country? Two hundred tame
pigeons were let loose, one at time,
from traps, and Carver bet Bogardus
one thousand dollars that he could
come nearer killing hundred birds
than Bogardus could. In this brutal
sport one hundred and sixty-five
pigeons were slaughtered-Bogardus
killing eighty-two and Carver killing
eighty-three.

be elected on the first Monday in April,
1888, the time of J. K. McClung expiring
at that time. We do not know who will
be the candidates. We are. informed
that Ambrose Leach will be one of the
candidates. He has recently served one

sober, competent man, and the people of

from former mistakes, BY electing him.

The farce called trial, over in
Kentucky, where Craft, charged with
the Ashland murders, was guarded by
400 or 500 soldiers, from the fury of
the native savages, is over again. OF
course the jury had to convict him,
evidence or no evidence. Had they
given verdict in accordance with the
lack of evidence, they would have
been torn in pieces by the bowling
