The second Epistle to the Thess,lon.

ter the First, and from Cornith, tho
same place.
The occasion of it seems to have been
some intelligence which had reached
the Ap. .stle of cert io disordcrly things
which ~cre on the increase among them.
These were not new. The Apostle had
taken rote of them in his First Epistle.
The di-ord'r, had their origin in part
in AN expectation they had somehow
come to entertain, that the Day Of the
Loud was close upon them. This bad
made them restless N feeling, and led u
, part of their number to neglect their
common avoCatjons, to surrender TO
idlcness and its always attendant evils.
The main purpose of the Epistle was
To correct these erroneous impressions
snd To counteract tn Sc evil tendencies,
1t IS largely made up of con- olations,
instruction and aimonitions. OF the
admoni ions some of the most import
ant are found in thts, the thlrd chapter.

majority, and the Republicans declare
that they lost but little OF tie German
vote, and have gained much of the
Irish vote. Yet most Republicans
claim nj present about 10000 minority:
this, too, in spite Of the fact that
Blaine has been for three weeks hip
podroming through the state in u
manner without precedent, using his
personal endeavors 10 whoop up lan-
gushing Republican enthusiasm. and
in spite of the fact that Republican
money is being poured into tho state
as il never was before, and in spite of
the fact that Commissioner Dudley
and an immense force OF federal en-
ployes, whom the general public pay
for their services in their various de
partmcnts at Washington, are here
working day and night for Republi-
can success. Not only j. Governor
Iloadly confident of Democratic Veto

Beacon. Oct. 18Th.
We publish the foregoing is nm evil
dencc of the relative value of political
information from Republican and
Democratic sources. The Republican
estimate of the result is seen 10 be re-
markably accurate aud rather under
than over the fact. But gall and worm
wood are not the elements that 20 10
make n reliable political prophet. We
fear the Beacon's editor is ineligible.
