The lecture last Sabbath afternoon at
Trinity Cathedral, by Dean Tearne,
was one WE'LL worth Sabbath
walk to hear. This scholarly man
presents the history Of religion, of the
church holydays, Of the devout lives in days
gone by of men who lived fasting and
praying. The research and erudition dis
played in these Sabbath afternoon lectures
surely are worthy Of a larger attendance
than that which greeted the learned gen.

four last Sabbath afternoon. Speaking
of Trinity Cathedral, one of the ladies

A SENSIBLE VIEW.

The Albany (N.'Y.) Express is a
square out republican paper, and in
the last campaign used all the inhu-
ence at command for the success of
Blaine. 1t takes a sensible view of
the southern appointments, as the
following from its columns will at
test : "ln some quarters considerable
fault has been found with President
Cleveland because he has appointed a
number of sOutherners, and among
them several ex-confederates, to posi-
tons of trust and emolument. The
Express is in no sense an exponent of
President Cleveland's policy. 1t OPP
posed his election, firmly believing
that the country would be better off
under republican rule. But the presi-
dent is entitled to fair treatment, and
so are the men of the south, who CON
tributed so materially to his election.
Gen. Grant, when he was president,
appointed many southern men to Of
flee, including some who had served
as generals in the confederate army,
or as members of the confederate
congress. Mr.. Hayes did the same
thing. SO, also, we believe, did Presi-
dent Arthur. Mr.. Cleveland ought
not to be blamed for doing in this
matter the same things that his re-
publican predecessors did. And if
he makes more appointments from
that section of the country than were
made by Grant or Hayes or Arthur,
the reason is obvious. He owes more
to the south than the other gentle
men did-and debts of honor ought
always to be paid"

A STRANGE CHILD.

There was an entire absence of the
nasal bones, and the lower portion of
the frontal bone was undeveloped.
The nostrils were only rudimentary.
The under lip fell below the chin.
The baby had eyes, although there
were cavities of depressions CORES
ponding to the orbital spaces. I'm
like other infants, Mrs. Linder's baby
does not cry. 1t bellows when it is
hungry, and becomes quiet and gem
tie as soon as it is fed. 1t refuses to
take natural nourishment, but, al
though onlya few days old, thrives
and grows fat on thick cracker pap
which would be refused by the stom-
ach of much older child. The rest
of the body and internal organs APP
pear to be normal and are well form
ed.
The grief-sticken mother hoped
that the child would die, but it has
grown stronger with each hour of
life.
A friend of the family told a re-
porter that one day last summer Mrs.
Under visited the Aquarium on Sta
ten Island and became much interes-
ted in the antics of the seals and sea-
lions. She talked about them for
weeks afterwards. While visiting
the place on several other occasions
she always spent long time before
the cage.

Gen. Grants income has been de-
rived from the interest on the quar-
ter million subscribed for him few
years ago and from his pay, lately,
as retired General. Colonel Fred
Grant has no means, all his money
having gone up with Grant & Ward.
Ulysses S., Jr., is not likely to want,
as his father-in-law, ex-senator Chat
fee, is very rich. Jessie Grant is
practically poor-the only really set
tied child of the General being Nellie,
whose position by marriage with a
member of an old and wealthy Eng
lish family places her beyond the
reach of want.

KEEP OUT BAD MEN.

The following extract is taken from
a letter written to Mr.. 7. F. Jehries,
of this county, by Edmond McCur-
tain, Governor of the Choctaw Ma
ton, Indian Territory, an Indian
whose principles ofhonesty, truth and
morality, stand out prominently:
accept thanks for your kind
wishes for the interest of the Indian
people. The ungrateful, yes, inhu-
man treatment they have received at
the hands of those whom they called
their ''pale face" brothers, will re-
veal to posterity rusty link in the
golden chain of United States histo-
ry; nor has the mistreatment ceased
even at the present standing of ad-
vanced civilization ON the part of the
Indians. You use your influence in
hindering all bad men from coming
out here should you come in contact
with any that may talk of coming.
We would like to have all good men
like yourself to come and live in our
midst, as such good men, like your
self, would tend to build up our coun-
try, both civilly and morally. One
has only to inherit the Indian blood
to realize with Indifference a sense of
the extreme inability of the Indians
to demand and obtain that liberty
and Justice peculiar to patriotism ;
but, alas, they have only to trust to
the Almighty for their protection,
and soon this transitory life will pass
by, and the cause of this down trod-
den race be commended to future
justice"
Mercy, love and JUSTICE These
three words at once present them
selves to the mind and heart of every
feeling man in the civilized world
when the object Of the wronged and
perishing tribes of our race is the
theme of conversation. Shall we
not as citizens of these grand United
States, be loving, just and merciful
towards our remaining Indian tribes
1t is certainly very pathetic, and sug-
gestive of painful thoughts, to have
the Governor of one of the most en-
lightened "Nations in the Indian
Territory to beseechingly ask that
''bad men" from the Estates" be
kept out Of his country! Yet, sad to
say, there is just grounds for the re-
quest. Can we not all adopt the gold
en- rule and act upon it, thus bring.
ing in the day of peace and love tc
these now rapidly-improving people
Will not our lawmakers see to il
that these people be not oppressed
robbed or wronged? Shall we MAJ
the brightness Of our history as d
great government by turning a deat
ear to the cry of those who are weak
and in our power! Heaven forbid
such course of action. We believe
it will be the righteous purpose Of
President Cleveland, as far as it is in
his power, to ''keep bad men out" Of
the Indian Territory.

A SPIRITUALISTIC STORY.
From Me Qlasqop Herald.

Mr.. Greville, the late clerk to the
privy council, was persuaded, when
he was over go years of age to attend
a spiritualistic seance. Foster, the
presiding medium, was in great form,
and the revelations were astonishing.
Greville sat silently, and his aged,
wizened face was as emotionless as
mask. Suddenly the medium grew
excited, and said to the old gentle
man: "a female form is bending over
you. OH the extraordinary like
ness" Greville sighed. "She lifts
her hands to bless YOU" Greville
sighed again, and said: 81 am de-
lighted" "She says she will see
you soon. You are old, and you
must meet her before long" Then
Greville quietly observed: "That's
very true. l am going to take tea
with her at 5 o'clock this evening""

though 80 years old, hale and vigor-

John l. Stovall, book-keeper of the
Georgia Chemical Works, Augusta
has defaulted to the amount of about
SIS, 200. General NJ. A. Stovall,
Treasurer and Manager of the Com
pany, had given the book-keeper pow
er of attorney, and by reason of this
the losses of the company will be in
creased so largely as to ruin General
Stovall financially. 1t is to be regret
ted that young Stovall should have
allowed the mania for speculation to
bring this trouble upon himself and
those who had trusted him.

The religious press is not entirely

The religious press is not entirely
success. Naturally it is devoted to
defending the doctrines of different
denominations. The secular press is
the great educator. Its perfect fair
ness must be conceded by all. Its
lightning-speed cylinders do not cry
out against. the poor because they
are poor. Were it not for the press
the Gospel preached in this city to-
day would be confined to the church
walls. By the courtesy of our great
papers it is spread all over the world

The matter of changing the South
ern roads from the five foot to the
standard, or four foot eight and a
half inch gauge, is every day growing
In Importance. 1t is inevitable that
the change must come, and every new
mile of road that is now being built in
the South increases the difficulty and
the expense. The FIVE foot or broad
guage is the one in common use in
the South and now covers some H.
600 miles Of track. 1t is probably
that the l.. and n. will lead off in

Cured at widely separated points, in

been taken by the government to iso-

will make great Roadway and gather
its victims by the hundred. Ofcourse,
