Resignation.

AT regular meeting held with
Concord Baptist church, Christian
county, KY, Saturday before the End
Sunday in January 1884, Rev. Jas.
L. Barrow rendered his resignation
as pastor of the church, after having
served in that capacity for IT years.
The matter was referred to a CON-
mittee to report at the next meeting.
REPORT OF COMMITTEE.
The committee TO .whom was re-
ferred for action the resignation of
our beloved brother, Jas. T. Barrow,
as pastor of this church, after prayer
full consideration would respectfully
report'as follows:
AT regular meeting held with
this, Concord Baptist church, Satur-
day before the 4th Sabbath in Oct.
1866, Bro. Barrow was unanimously
called to the pastorate of this church,
the call being for an indefinite period
of time. AT the regular meeting in
January 1867 he accepted the call
and entered upon the duties of pastor.
The relation of pastor and church
has existed for term of II years,
during the whole of which time $50
far as we know the greatest harmo-
ny has prevailed between pastor and
church, ever having the one great
object in view, viz: the upbuilding
of the Redeemer's kingdom upon the
earth, and the conviction and
conversion Of souls in this portion of
the Lords vineyard. AS pastor and
church we have passed through
many pleasant seasons and some i'm
portant changes, the principal of
which was the change of the locality
of our church and the building of a
new house of worship, in which mat
ter the pastor worked faithfully and
earnestly to its final completion. We
feel that it was largely through his
instrumentality that the end was so
harmoniously achieved. In severing
the relation of pastor and church, we
feel deeply impressed with the fact
that that we are making a vacancy
that will be hard to fill, yet in the
Providence of God we are called
upon to take action in the premises.
Therefore we most earnestly pray for
divine guidance, that whatever we
do may rebound to the honor and
glory Of God. After prayerful con-
sideration and due deliberation, your
committee would recommend that
the church accept her pastors resig-
nation and commend him to the
brethren and outside world in his
new field Of labor, wherever he may
be called, . as Jealous christian
gentleman and faithful minister of

On last Friday the Legislature
made an additional appropriation
of $4,000 for the Ohio river flood
sufferers, making 100000 allowed.
The Ohio Legislature voted 100000
and when it is remembered that
probably as much more has been
raised by private subscription and
that Cincinnati and Louisville have
insisted upon taking care of their own
sufferers, it looks like the immediate
wants of the unfortunate ought to be
attended to and no one be permitted
to suffer with hunger or cold. No
one will be permitted to suffer but it
is hard to conceive the extent of the
damage to property. The losses will
go up into the millions.

NEXT 10 NoAH's.
The Flood Of 1884 surpasses
any Recorded Since the
days Of the Ark.
The o-Higher River Falling.

The late rains in the Ohio valley
were unprecedented, continuing al
most without intermission for 10 days.
AS consequence the Ohio and its
tributaries were higher than ever be-
fore known. The rise in the Ohio
continued last week until Friday and
then the muddy waters began slowly
to recede.
At Cincinnati the river reached II
feet and q Of an inch, the channel be-
ing very narrow and deep there. This
was 81 feet higher than in 1883, the
hitherto greatest flood on record. At
Louisville 4G1$ feet was the mark
reached, just 3 feet higher than ever
before. Is inches more would have
inundated half of Louisville. The
suffering and restitution along the
Ohio from Pittsburg to Cairo can
scarcely be imagined. 10000 people
are homeless. Thousands of houses
have been washed away with all their
contents. Probably so lives have
been lost and several cases of insani-
ty have been reported, superinduced
by the terrors of the situation. $780,
600 have appropriated and gener-
Gus donations have been made from
private sources, but there are yet un-
supplied wants calling for more mon

The river is falling but it will be a
week before the angry pillows sub

Four names were placed before the
Democratic caucus to nominate a
public printer last week. On the
second ballot the name of Geo. V.
Triplett, of Greensboro, was dropped
and that of j. d. Kehoe, Of Maysyille,
on the third. The fourth ballot was
taken between Col. S. /. M. Major, of
the Frankfort Yeoman and DR.. Jno.
d. Woods, of the Bowling Green Ga
zette. The result was, for Woods GA,
for Major So. The nomination of DIR.
Woods is truly gratifying to his
friends OF the Kentucky press. The
Yeoman Office has done the public
printing for "a years and ought to
bear defeat with becoming grace.
There is no more worthy and deserv-
ing Democrat in Kentucky than DR..
Woods and we heartily congratulate
him on winning the race. The term
is for two years.

A Flash in the Pan.
A Reporter Of the Courier
Journal is Sent to the Western
Kentucky Lunatic Asy-
lum as a Lunatic, but
is Recognized and
the Scheme
Spoiled.
HIS PULSE GIVE HIM AWAY.

There is a very bright and sharp
young fellow on the Courier-Journal
staff named Jos. j. Eakins. That
paper with a view to getting into the
inside workings Of the asylum, con-
ce;vcd the brilliant idea Of sending
Eakins to the asylum as a lunatic.
Eakins went to Hickman, KY, and
under the name of JnO. Ii. Hill soon
became as crazy as bed bug, and
Mr.. ii. e. Turner, of that city, who
helped him to work the scheme, had
him tried and adjudged lunatic and
started with him for the asylum here.
He represented Hill to be an English
man with plenty of money, travelling
for his health, and subject to Occa-
sional fits of insanity which were of
short duration.
They reached here, Sunday and
Turner went out to see DR.. Rodman.
He saw the assistant physician, DR..
Stone, who told him to come back III
the evening as the Superintendent
would have to be consulted about
admitting foreigner.
Att O'Clock Turner went out again,
taking Hill with him. lie left him
in the hack and went into the Office
where he met DR.. Rodman. The
circumstances were laid before him
and finally Turner, in order to has
ten a decision, remarked that Hill
was waiting in the hack. DR.. Rod
man at once had him brought up,
and Eakins began to do some clever
acting. lie played crazy and religion
was his mania. He was very talka-
alive, and impaired the information
that he was 22,000 years old, that he
had spent 1000 years in hell, and had
escaped and was now on his way to
heaven. In his eagcrness to appear
crazy he overdid the thing and got
too crazy. Finally DR.. Rodman took
him to the light to examine him, and
feeling his pulse he found it TO be
beating ITO times per minute. In q
moment DR.. Rodman's suspicious
were aroused, and sending
Turner from the room, he looked
Eakins squarely in the face ant
asked, "Young man, did you ever
correspond for a newspaper? You
have head like journalist"
Eakins thought the game was up
but made another desperate effort
"No, sir" he answered Il have devo'
ted my life to religious matters"
DR.. Rodman then took him by the
hand and said, "Young man, you
you are little too crazy"
Then the amateur detective raised
his truthful blue eyes and said, "Dr
l cannot tell lie, l am Joe Eakin:
of the Courier-Journal."
Then followed some conversation
which it is not worth while to relate
here, but Eakins 10 doubt wished
many times that he was out Of the
scrapc. Dr. Rodman, though, after
expressing himself in regard to tho
matter, threw open the doors of eve
ry part of the asylum, and permitted
Eakins to investigate to his heart
content, and he went home con
WINGED that there was nobody in thu
world like DR.. Rodman, and 10 bet
ter managed asylum in the Unitet
States than the one over which lit
presides.

bercd by him in his prayers. Our
praycris that he may be instrument

many precious souls to Christ, That

four thousand, together with the in
Vulnerable host of the redeemed, in
singing praises to the Lamb that was
slain, but lives again, world without
end.
Respectfully submitted.

All of the indictments against
Frank James, in Missouri, have been
dismissed, for want of evidence.
Gov. Crittenden will not pardon
Dick Liddell, the only witness the

answer to indictments there, but
there is not much probability that he
will be convicted. His health which
was very bad is now much improved.

They tried it once and failed, and
being defeated for Governor is what
elected him to the Senate before. The
best thing for the old General to do
now is to stand back and give the
young men 4 chance.
