TIMELY TOPICS.

A BROOKLYN literary monthly Magazine
has the following statement in regard TO the
late Gen. Garfeld's opinion in regard to the
skeptical writings of the noted Renan: AZ
the close Of the memorable cam paign OF 1850
and when General Garfield bad been chosen
President, he was on the train bound for
Washington. He took from the hands OF a
friend travelling with him a small brown
volume, which he began TO inspect. "Ahl
Remains Apostles" said he. "A work Of
decided interest in any case. A fine writer.
His Lite Of Christ is a bright book, and read
it with close attention. Yet it does not con-
vince. shall always remember 4 comment
made upon it by Senator Matt Carpenter. 4
read that book, said he, sure from the first
to the last that there was fallacy within it
some where, which was unable TO make out.
So read it again and still knew that the log
zeal weakness was there. The result was that
arose from the second reading fully con-
WINGED that Christ was divine ~ suppose, -
continued Garfield earnestly, "that seasons
Of religious doubt come 20 every man. But
l have noticed this in my own internal ex-
perience, that the older grow the less do /
care for dogmas and theories and the more
do care for the beauty and force that are a
part Of Jesus Christ There is no possible
means by which any man or any number Of
men could have created in fiction charac-
ter like his. It is the very highest type of
manhood and the high ideal which any man
feels he has a right to initiate, even though
he knows he cannot reach It."

COMMODORE HENRI H. GoRRIExGE writes
to New York journal in regard to the prac-
tieability OF the Panama Canal and the
progress made thus far in its construction.
He compares the work at its present stage
with that performed on the Suez Canal in the
same length of time and says that the Pana-
ma Canal is at least two years ahead. He
says it viii be completed within FIVE years,
aud estimates its total cost at sl20, 900, 600.
The work on it is now progressing at the rate
of 100000 cubic metres per month. The
progressive increase will bring this amount
up to 100000 for 1885, 10000, 600 for
1856, and 25.OOo,O 900 for 1887, leaving A.

THE Railroad Gazefte, an authority, among
railroads has the following good words for
railway employees: "However much objee-
ton there may be to the prohibition of Sun
day trains By lao it is certainly desirable, for
the sake of the employees, that the number
should be limited as much as possible. En-
tirely apart from conside rations of religion,
the men are the better for a regular day of
rest which comes when other people also have
day Of rest. Further, in a community
where Sunday work is considered sinful by
many, or most people. the man who works
on that day, however firmly be may believe
the work to be proper, must feel that be is
offending the moral sense of many good peo-
pie in the community, whose respect he
should desire and is the better for desiring.
Men usually need all the influences that II is
possible to secure TO make them upright and
devoted to duty, including the sympathy and
support Of their fellows; and they should not
lightly do even indifferent things which ex-
pose them to the condemnation OF good
men,"

We reproduce from our Pen Pictures in

who has since then passed to the better land.
"In 1854 we met Mrs. Ramsey for the first
time-a tall, well formed, queenly looking
woman; commanding in her manners, yet
gentle and loving in her nature.
She had been married only four
years when the Governor and her
self took up their abode in their crude guber-
material residence on lower Third street, St.
Paul, and one can imagine the cares and de-
privations of her early pioneer life and the
immense tax upon her disposition to main
tain an equilibrium amid the trying scenes Of
those early days, and yet she was equal to
the emergency. Throughout quarter Of a
century she not only greatly aided by her
,Ii in
career, but has maintained the regard
and esteem of the public for
her many private excellencies. The
autumnal tint of years only adds to her
graces, while in the social circle she still
maintains her supremacy, as she always

The quiet which had peryaded our lit
tie town during last week was one of I'M
usual duration, especially at this season of
the year. But rs all things must have an
end, so had the qnietude of our little
town. On Thursday, Nov. 9th, cou-
pie of young gentlemen, hailing from
ward 4, made their advent into town
bringing with them two others, of the
fairer sex. The Young gents not at all
daunted at the solemnity of their mis-
sion, stepped over to the Clerks office.
and each promptly demanded writ to
take one of these young ladies '.for better
or for worse during their natural lives.
The writs being obtained, the next thing
was to have them executed. Rev. j. 4.
Wallace being present, (who by the way
way is not a novice in executing .'writs'
of that kind) the writs were placed in his
hands for execution, and i'm less time than
it has taken us to pen these words. Mr..
II. l.. Smith and Miss Margaret 4. Boyt,
and Mr.. j. .. Boyt and Miss Sarah F.
Smith were united i'm the holy bonds of

clouds Of adversely ever intervene to mar
their happiness. Young men, ..go and
