the darkness of night. Signing, he
watches for the coming of the dawn, and
he calls to the watchman, "What of the
night" The answer is cheering. Victory
and joy for the captives night for their
taunting enemies; morning for the fathers
of the church night for the iniidelity of
the world, and the promised morning
came when the Jews dried their tears and
took down their harps and marched out
of their dreary captivity. This was the
morning when the restoration came, and
when the royal commission was issued
''Go ye into all the world and preach the
gospel" Seven hundred years after Isaiah
in darkness and distress looked for the
coming of the dawn, we SEQ the Apostle
Paul standing in the early morn saying
''The night is far. spent, 60 ye into the
world" The morning of the day in which
we stand begun three hundred years ago,
yet If these days drag slowly let us remem-
Der that to Him to whom ], ZOO years are
but day, all things ara possible. What We
see around us now is but an anticipation
of what may be; though men now like to
praise the old times. as those of England
before King Henry VIII, when men were
gay, happy and Indifferent, yet if we were
to take them back and let them do
what people did then they would
make the most piteous protest that
ever affected human ears. The speaker
then drew an effective comparison be
tween the modes and advantages of life in
those early times and now and demonstrat.
ed how vastly superior are the advan-
tages for comfort and intellectual and
spiritual good of these days. The great
difference in the intelligence of man is a
marked feature. It was darkened and weak,

The COrcOran Robbery.

WHAT DETECTIVE MDEvITT SAYS A8oUT IT.
Detective McDevitt has sent letter to Commis-
Sioner West. In which he says:
"Having learned through the daily newspapers
and not by subjectng you to a surveillance which
would be as dishonorable it would be useless as
has been falsely and maliclously charged against
me, that you, on yesterday, applied for and OBJ
tained the deposition OF that distinguished philan-
thrOptSt, w. w. CorcOran In respect to transac-
tion involving the loss by theft of a watch and
chain, with triple 1Ocket attached thereto, con
tanning the miniature portraits of his grandchil-
dren, in Richmond, Va, several years ago, with
the recovery OF which my name has been connect
ed permit me to tender you certain sources OF in
formation which will enable you to accomplish the
only purpose which you, as my judge, can have in
v;ew namely, to arrive at the truth and the whole
truth.
On application to A.C. Richards OF this city then
major and superintendent OF the Metropolitan n
police, you can obtain Information as to the fol-
lowing facts: Whether my conduct in respect to
this transaction met with his approval upon the
very full report made to him as my superior
Off :er.
Likewise, whether did not decline to accent
any mOnled recognition OF my services by Mr.. Cor
cOran, until he himself adirseei letter to NJ tor
RlchardS, enclosing a check for the sum OF $780,
which letter was laid before the board OF police
the transaction inquired into and their consent in
due conformity with law, obtained, before would
accept the said check. The letter 10 which refer
should have been, and have no doubt was. filed
among the official papers OF the board. I am sure
you will pardon me for not being more definite as
to dates, when you recall the fact that former
order deprveS me OF the opportunity of inspecting
certain public records"
