Matt Gross Takes in Owensboro.

Matt Gross, the brother of Capt.
Jack Gross, who created such "A sensa-
ton In st. Louis several weeks ago, was
in the city yesterday. Mr.. Gross was
en- route to Megan's Station, i'm Ohio
county, where be has brother living.
A man Of the name of Oosley accompa-
MED him. Gross took In Main street
yesterday aud seemed to know every
body he met. He had pocket full OF
money ana spent it freely. Walking
into hardware house and seeing q
gentleman smoking a pipe, he knocked
1t out of his mouth and invited him to
go with him and get cigar. The
gentleman accompanied him, but Gross
took liquor instead of a cigar and con.
tinued to guzzle it IN large quantities
for several hours and when he left
town was loaded down to the guards.
He took two two-gallon jugs in the
buggy with him.
Gross is a very large, powerful look
ing man. He wears his hair down on
his shoulders and reminds one of Buf.
falo Bill in appearance. He stoutly
maintains that he is Jack Gross, and
says he has arrested every kind of man
except Jew. His expression is idiotic,
and he talks i'm half witted, foolish
manner, though both might have been
caused by the liquor he drank.
While here, Gross was the cynOsure
Of all eyes, and he created no less of a
sensation In OwensborO than he did in
st. Louis. He is certainly queer spec.
linen and cannot but be al object OF
interest wherever he goes ODens6OrO

An Answer.

A lady writes us from Sutton, that
she bought Bronze gobbler of Shell
byville poulterer lately and ordered il
to be expressed To Beaver Dam about
the first of March. When the turkey
csme she was there to receive it. The
charges were $40, double first-class
rate. She complained to the agent
that il was too high, as she had had
three coOps expressed from the same
place, to the same destination, for the
same amount of expressage, a year
before. The agent advised her to write
to the dealer from whom she got the
turkey about the matter, which she did.
In reply she was informed that the
charges were marked by the Shelby
vile agent, 81 %, and that the extOrtion
must have been made at this end of the
line. She then wrote to the agent at
Beaver Dam to please explain the
she says, she shall in future have ex.
press charges prepaid and advises her
friends to do likewise.
The above remarks were made i'm the
HERALD sometime last April. The
following il a reply to them, sent US by
the agent at Beaver Dam:

FARMDALE, KY, June 4. 1855.
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1885-11-11
Alone with God.

A carrier in a large town in York
shire, England, heard his carter one
day in the yard swearing dreadfully at
his horses. The carrier was a man
who feared God, spent his Lords day
as teacher in the Sunday-school, and
endeavored to promote the good of his
fellow-creatures. He was shocked to
hear the terrible oaths that resounded
through the yard. He went to the
young man, who was just setting off
with his cart for Manchester, and
kindly eXpostulated with him on the
enormity of his sin, and then added
" But if thou wilt swear, stop till you
get through the turnpike on the moor,
where none but God and myself can
hear" The poor fellow cracked his
whip and pursued his journey, but he
could not get over his masters words.
Some time after his master observed
him in the yard, and was very much
surprised to see him so altered. There
was a seriousness and quietness about
him which he had never seen before:
and he often seemed as if he had some
thing to say that he could not get out.
AT length his master was so struck
with his manner that he asked him if
he wanted anything. "Ah! MASTER"
he said, I" do you know what you said
to me about swearing? 1 was thunder
struck. l went on the road and got
through the turnpike and reached the
moor; and there l thought that though
| was alone yet God was with me, and
| trembled to think how he had been
with me, and had known all my sins
and follies all my life long. My sins
came to my remembrance; and L was
afraid he would strike me down; and /
thank God have been aroused to seek
after the salvation of my poor soul"
The master, as may be supposed, was
overjoyed to hear the young mans con-
fession; and his subsequent conduct
gave proof that he had ceased to be a
slave to sin. a word fifty spoken in
due season, how good it is!-PreSJyte-

Autumn Thoughts.


The early sunset, the shorter day,
the cooler night, the shrill note of the
croaking insect, tell us autumn is here.
The roseate hue of flowers that smiled
upon our pathway and gladdened our
hearts is gone. Time, with busy fingers,
has begun to pluck from the tree its
foliage, and is gradually touching the
leaves with his furnishing brush.
When autumn turns the leaves of the
book she brings before us, we learn
fresh lessons. How swiftly the summer
has swept by, carrying with it the quar-
ter of the year! Less than quarter
left. Familiar as the truth is, g time
flies quickly" we need " line upon
line, precept upon precept," to enforce
the lesson. 1t is one of those basal
truths that enter largely into the struct-
ure of character, both for this life and
the life to come. For what is life but
one unbroken continuity of being
into the illimitable future?
Time to eternity is as the river to the
ocean. Wind and tide may for awhile
roll back the flowing stream, yet it is
sure to land, at last, in the broad ocean.
So, whatever means we may use to
prolong life, there is the continued
ongoing of our days, which the Bible
tells us are numbered" when we
shall launch upon the boundless "be-
You'd. "-Rer. W. 4. Lansing, DID,.

Wings By.and.By.

" Walter" said a gentleman on a
ferry-boat to poor, helpless cripple,
" how is it, when you cannot walk, that
your shoes get worn?" a blush came
over the boys pale face, but, after hest
tating a moment, he said: My mother
has younger children, sir; and while
she is out washing, | amuse them by
creeping about on the floor and playing.
" Poor boy." said lady standing near,
not loud enough, as she thought, to be
overheard. " What life to lead! What
has he in all the future to look forward
to-" The tear started in his eye, and
the bright smile that chased it away
showed that he did hear her. AS she
passed by him to step on shore, he said
in low voice, but with a smile: "
am looking forward to having wings
some day, lady" Happy Walter! Poor,
crippled, and dependent on charity, yet
performing his mission, Doing, in his
measure, the Masters will, patiently
waiting for the future, he shall by-and-
by " mount up with wings as eagles
shall run and not be weary, shall walk
and not be faint. "-Erchdnge.

Little Things.

Events the most important often
hinge on circumstances the most trivial.
Joseph's going to inquire after the well
fare of his brethren on the plain seemed
slight thing. Yet he that morning
took leave of his father for more than
twenty-one years, and went way by
which he never returned. Saul sought
his fathers asses-a thing that seemed
devoid of consequence; but perhaps he
is now in hell, owing to it, for then be-
gan his prosperity which destroyed him
then Samuel met him and anointed
him king over Israel. You 90 out not
knowing what a day may bring forth as to
your happiness or misery. Before even
ing you may meet accidentally with a
connection that shall prove source of
JOY or suffering through life. "Why,
this is enough to make one live and
move in constant trembling" This is
not the design of it, but it is designed
to induce you, in everything, to commit
your way and your works unto the Lord.

He said to her; thought the world
A maze without a cew;
But the puzzle was solved. / found at last
Truth mirrored in one drop of dew
Your tear of grief bejeweled the leaf
OF my life, and told me true
That doubt would die and dread fly past
If might but comfort you"
The rain is the tears of the past.
In memory tremble anew
Those wavering lines of watery light
Mid which the spring-time grew
While melting SHOWS and vanished woes
Together took their flight
And the folded flower, with mist impaired,
Boomed in a single night
She said to him: " Like rain, the years
Have swept away our sorrow.
The years have passed. the rain is gone;
Earth laughs like a waking child
That sees in every breaking dawn
The hope of a sunny morrow.
How often through remembered tears
Our fairest hopes have smiled"

The Angels Ladder.


If there were a ladder, mother,
Between the earth and sky,
As In the days of the Bible,
would bid you all good bye,
And go through every country,
And search from town to town,
TIL had found the ladder
with angels coming down.
Then would wait quite softly
Beside the lowest round,
Till the sweetest-looking angel
Had stepped upon the ground;
would pull his dazzling garment,
And speak out very plain;
"Will you take me, please, to heaven,
When you go back again"
"Ah, darling" said the mother,
You need not wander so
To find the golden ladder
Where angels come and go
Wherever gentle kindness
Or plying love abounds
There is the wondrous ladder,
With angels ON the rounds"
