SEVERAL special correspondents and weak
ling amongst the State papers, have said that
the relative strength of Senator Harrison and
General Gresham in the late convention was ex-
pressed by the vote on the final ballot for dele
gate at large between Mr. Mcdonald and Mr..
Cumback. This statement is without the least
foundation in fact. Senator Harrson's nomi-
nation by reclamation gauged his strength.
Very many of the warmest supporters of Sen
ator Harrison were the most Jealous supporters
of Mr.. Mcdonald from first to last, and so, also,
some of General Greshams friends voted for
Mr. Cumback

WOMAN may have no influence in politics, and
in religion may at times be little shaky, but
that she is powerful factor in the church no
one can deny Rev. Burk, of Tamaqua, Pa,
will not at all events, attempt to belittle her in
fuence Rev. Burk was rector of a church in
that town, and was very popular with his parish
toner's, especially with the feminine portion of
thenf Whether the fact that Mr.. Burk was a
bachelor of pleasing address had everything to
do with his popularity is not question to be
rashly decided here; but it was expected, not un-
reasonably, perhaps, that when he chose wife
he would find her among the good sisters of the
church. There was no lack of timber adapted to
this purpose, but Rev. Burk, with amazing lack
of Judgment went outside of his own
fold and chose helpmeet from strange
flock. 1t was disastrous move.
The male members of the congregation saw
nothing Objectionable in the newcomer, but the
women refused to adopt her one of them
selves. Services which had once been sweet
seasons of spiritual communion suddenly lost
interest. The devout churchwomen who had
hitherto been untiring in their attendance in all
parish work became weary and refused to re
spond to the once magnetic calls of their pastor
1t was singular, this apathy and lack of har-
mony, but it grew until the vestry has been
forced to close the doors of the church. Rev.
Burk is now out of job, and it would be inter
esting to know whether, if he could try it again,
with the experience he has gained, he would
marry to please his congregation or remain sin
gle and fascinating

chiefly to the children of those who are able to
meet the expenses, as it has not yet become a
part of our free-school system To apply
the benefits of this system to the
very poorest there is an association of
Christian ladies' in this city now numbering
fifty seven, known by the above name. 1t has
been in operation only comparatively short
time, yet during the last year 100 children were
enrolled with an average daily attendance of
about fifty These have been gathered into two
schools, one on West Market street. in or near
the property occupied by the Friendly lnn and
the other on Chesapeake street, in the vicinity
of the stave factory. Only those who have been
familiar with the workings of these schools can
fully appreciate their value 1t is great thing
to rescue a little child, for day only, from its
filth and neglect; but when this rescue contin-
ues from day to day, Sundays included for
many months or even years, and the child
passes into the public schools with such culture
as it has received at the hands of these
women, the advantage is so marked that
Superintendent Tarbell has many times ex-
pressed his high appreciation of the free kinder
gartens, in their preparation of class of chill
dren hitherto neglected. and by no means great
ly desired in the public schools.
The demand for these schools has so increased
and the work is so satisfactory, that the society
has determined to open three more, if the neces-
sary funds can be obtained. They have hereto
fore had but little difficulty in obtaining funds
by direct contribution, chiefly from the members
themselves bat in order to induce larger num-
to do themselves the pleasure of contributing to
so important benevolence thew have made ar
rangements with Rev. DR.. Alabaster, of Meri-
dian-street NJ. e. Church, to deliver three of his
popular lectures in the interest of this charity
This movement is characteristic of the women
of the society. The lectures themselves will
prove treat to the cultured men and women of
the city, and will be well worth their
cost while those who enjoy them will have the
double pleasure of personal qualification and of
identifying themselves by that much with one of
the most important charities of the day. We
cordially commend this work to the benevolent
people of the city, and express a hope that its
sphere of usefulness may be extended at least to
the establishment of the three additional schools
now contemplated All instruction is given
gratuitously, except the labors Of one supervis
ing principal The first of the 'ectures will be
delivered on the 7th day of May, the second on
the 21st, and the third, June 4, in Dicksons

physicians to inspect all vessels and pas

revolvers of 42.calibre, are prepared tor
any emergency. Military discipline is
rgidly observed and no person is allowed
inside the picket lines without pass.
At Snake Hollow the excitement Is at
fever heat, and groups of miners can be
seen in every direction discussing the
situation, although no threats of violence
have been made. The importation OF
foreign laborers is deprecated by ina.
lority OF the citizens, who think it merely
an experiment calculated to force the
miners to accept the reduction. 1t is
reported here that the miners have dis
armed the Pinkerton men at New Straits

Der of extra police and the city is well
