Love, 0ourtship and Marriage


The lecture of the Rev Jahu Dewitt
Miller, in the College Oratory last Friday
night, was one Of the best ever delivered
in this town. Mr.. Miller is young man
and unmarried but that does not pre-
clude the possibility of an able treatment
Of such subject as "Iove, Courtship and
Marriage" For, as he himself suggested,
he may have had much experience in the
two first parts of the subject, and of the
last, perhaps he can talk best about that
of which he knows the least" lie is an
odd genius, and born orator. You are
at once strikingly impressed with his in
dividuality. Every movement, every
action, every thought, is peculiarly his
own. Ifhis manner is not always pol
ished, it is eloquent; if his gestures are
not all graceful, they are expressive; if
his language is not always elegant. ii is
forcible. The lecture was some parts ex-
ceedingly humorous, and the truths ex-
pressed were often Illustrated by incl
dents and anecdotes which convulsed the
audience with laughter; yet the amuse-
ment thus afforded was not the principal
feature. 1t was packed full of the sound
est common sense and the highest phil
osophy. Ifall the suggestions and truths
contained in il were needed by the whole
of the present generation the world
would undergo such a change that we
should expect the sudden advent of the
millennium. Yet they were all practical
as well as wise, and ought to be needed
by every one. Some of the grave ques-
tions which perplex society were treated
with remarkable ability and in such an
intensely interesting manner that listen
ing was delight, and with Il force that
carried conviction to every mind. The
lecture was highly enjoyed by those pres,
ent and bursts of wild applause frequent.
ly greeted the speaker,

The New Time With the New Year,

On New Years day the Royal
Greenwich Observatory will adopt
the new time system which has
found many advocates in Philadel-
phia.
The hours to be numbered con-
secutively from one to twenty-four,
II O'Clock midnight being the high
est number Under this arrange
ment 6 o'clock p. m. will become Is
o'clock.
The change to standard time was
readily agreed to; its success is adj
mitted. There is likely to be con-
siderable opposition to the new
scheme. The greater uniformity it
secures in timetables and schedules
for railroad and business purposes
is admitted; but when one thinks
of all the bells in town striking
twenty-four one strong objection is
heard, twelve being annoying
enough. A more serious objection
is the necessity involved of either
doubling the size of watch and clock
faces, or doubling the number Of
figures on faces already crowded
We shall have a good chance to see
how the plan works before we adopt
it, for England III this case make,
time ahead of us.-"News," Phila.

What delightful season of the year is
Christmas to the little folks. Long be-
fore the time arrives there is great deal
oft talk as to what Old Kriss will 10 this
year Some little folks we know of even
write letters to Mr.. kriss, telling him
their wants. This is very good. II gives
kriss an idea of what is needed Every
household that has joyful Christmas
must have the little totterer whose baby
hands and funny coy ways, brightens all.
They must receive "A present If there be
one given, and of course the stockings
hung up must be filled. What Il happy
life the child has. Unconscious of the
trials of the world which, in due time
they must encounter, goes on thought
lessly day after day, until too soon they
are brought face to face with the stern
realities Of life. But at the annual return
of the Christmas joys, every child grown
into manhood's estate can afford to be a
boy again, and every woman, girl: and
once more enter into the joys of the pres
ent happy days as Of old. Be happy and
make those around You happy. If you
be able, loose your purse strings, and
give to those less fortunate than yourself
Life at the best is short, and to live well
is to do the greatest good possible. Just
now when all should be happy there are
some who are not. Misfortune has fol-
lowed misfortune with them, and this may
be their winter of sorrow and discomfort.
There is brighter and better time COM
ing. In the cycle of time changes are
rapidly made, and the wheel of fortune
may turn out the lucky number for you.
There has been dark days in every
mans life. THE LEDGER has at times
pulled the oar Of adverse fortune, but
with brave hearts and willing hands,
wonders can be accomplished when set
at with right spirit. To-day THE LED
GER wishes all Merry Christmas. For
as Christmas comes but once a year,
there are friends whom we greet now,
that year hence will have iourneyed to
the Unknown shore.

broke up and separated to go home,
wishing Mr.. and Mrs. Dale many years
of happiness. Nothing occurred to mar
the pleasures of the day, excepting the
illness of the eldest son of this family
who has been in delicate health for some
time past. The presents were much

For many years the name of James
Wick has been familiar to the people of
this country. He was among the first of
those who have built up an extensive
business as seedsmen and florists. The
reputation of the firm for prompt and
honest dealing was soon established, and
all over the land it was soon held to be
safe to invest money in the the articles
offered BY James Wick A few years ago
the business was extended so as to in
clude Towering plants, shrubs, builds, &c.
All varieties of flower and vegetable seeds
and sent, as usual, by mail, and express,
all warranted to be as good as can be pro-
duced, and now orders for plants and
bulbs and filled with the same certainty
that the purchasers will receive what
they order. The new catalogue for this
year is very attractive. 1t describes every
variety of plant and flower one would
wish to cultivate in garden or house. The
prices are reasonable. The price of the
FLORAL GUIDE is 10 cents, which will be
RENTED to those who give an order for
seeds or plants. Address James Wick
