much to remove its subjects from dead

these influences. But look at the re-
cords of the liie-iusuraucc Offices, and
see how uniform is the action of na-

the annual reports of the death in any

GREAT EXPECTATIONS.

Our distinguished citizen, Rev. a. Is.
Leonard, D. D., is either person of great
expectations or person Of great preten-
sions. In the application Of any sound
principles, pertaining to rules of evidence
or logic, we cannot find any foundation
whatever for his large expectations; hence
we are forced to suspect the integrity OF
his faith. We are quite well aware that
this sentence is loaded, and that if it were
probed thoroughly it might explode, but
pure reasoning is a process which must be
applied to the political problems of the
day, and as Mr.. Leonard and his alleged
expectations are now factors in the Ohio
campaign we are forced to apply to him
and to his utterances the processes Of in
vestigation and analysis, and we must APP
proach the matter in hand with a sort OF
friendly ferceness that will be at once fair
and yet forcible and effective.
In the first place, Brother Leonard ex-
poets that, because he is prominent
Methodist preacher and has been nominated
for high position, all Methodists will
support him. This is perhaps, too strong;
but he really assumes to expect that the
great body Of Methodists will support him.
But, really, does not Brother Leonard
know better? He has never been accused
of being either an ignoramus or an idiot,
and be has pair Of eyes in his head and
pair Of ears ample for all necessary pur-
poses--namsly, for hearing What people
say and for wlnking of the flies in dog.
isys--and, hence he must know that there
are at least six out Of the seven trustees
in his own church who will vote fol-
Foraker, and that much the larger por-
ton Of the voters in this congregation
will do the same If he does not know it,
he ought to know it, for if is the solid
truth. And his people being Methodsts,
he ought to know that they are men and
women who are accustomed to think and
act according to their own information,
opinions and convictions Of duty. He
must know if he knows anything
that Methodists are not people
who are blown about by any wind OF doc,
trine--either moral or political-whetber
the wind comes from a preacher or lay,
man. And if it is true that the voters in
Dr. Leonards own church will vote for
Foraker, where does he expect. in the
great body of the church outside, to find
condition OF things more favorable tc
him? Nowherel Hence we conclude that
it cannot.be true that DR.. Leonard expects
to carry the Methodist church with him
But DIR. Leonard has stated, very dis
tinctly, that he expects the $4,000 per
sons who voted for the Second Amend
ment to vote for him. What does be
mean? 1t is impossible that he should ex
pect any such thing Why should they
or any of them--do it2 This great mum.

kicked, narrowly escaping death. The
horses hoof scraped his coat and rip

peated. There wasn't anything very

pose was scarcely Of more consequence

Tho banks OF the Nubian Nile vary with
every mile, and beautiful arc they in di-
versity OF color and combination, though
that beauty partakes OF a sterner quality
than in the landscapes Of Egypt Nowhere
can be seen the rich fields which stretched
on either shore away to the feet OF the
Lyb.an hills. They have disappeared and in
their stead rise from the waters depths tall
cliffs in broke precipico and crag, or the
river, owning freer bounds, iows majestic
ally on beneath rival streams Of bordering
sands that nave the georges OF the desert
hills for channels and tho wind for current.
Poverty is written on the face OF this sun
scorched country, and such few strips of fer
tile land us the Nile reaches In It's flood are
lied with jealous care by the scanty por1-
lation which they support. 1t Is curious 10
note with what religious care the villages
and temples have beon placed upon the
shelving rock OF desert sand, where none but
the lizards could begrudge their presence.
Every inch of land that can be cultivated Il
coaxed to yield its burden of beans or doura.
and Of spare land whereon to place their
villages, good sooth there is enough. Pocr
though the Nubian is, his wants are few, and
his thrifty ways mako poverty a light
burden to him. Travel where he win for
hire or trade, he leaves his heart in his Wild
homo OF Nubfn, and returns hither whom for
tune allow.
No music has for him so great a charm as
the melancholy creation of the wator- wheels,
the constant plant Of which grease Is never
permitted 10 diminish, all that he can get
being devoted to the shaggy locks of his un-
turbane1 head. Nature, who refuses him to
dream Of aught but lean kim when he thinks
Of doura-fields, has given to his land an
abundance of date palms, and on their fruit
he virtually subsists. Little cares the Ibre-
NEE palm for the deserts envy, but spread
ing its feathery leavei above the sand or
rock gives 10 its planter the much-prizei
fruit which enables him to exc out the slen-
der harvests of tho fields.

various dotachmcnts of Gen. Wolseley's
command have been concentrated at
Korti, but their losses have been great
and the wounded and sick are probably as
numerous as those fit for active duty.
The Mahdi threatens to attack Korti with
an immense army, and there is no reason
to suppose that the few battalions cooped
up there will be any better off than Cor
don and his command were at Khartoum.
Osman Digma, who is the Mahdi's chief
lieutenant, has an overwhelming force
around Suakim. and threatens to drive
the British garrison there and their native
allies into the Red sea. The hot season
now prevails throughout the Soudan, and
while the desert tribes will moi suffer SER
iously from its effects, the unacclimated
British troops will find the heat almost
iutolerable, while the miasma will breed
disease and pestilence among them. The
outlook is certainly most discouraginR.

iNeN hofh Letter.
My own rocollections OF Edward Arnott
relate principally to his foppishness He was
not a professional beauty, but aspired to be
and failed only on account of his lack OF
nose. He had one, but It was so small and
fiat that an otherwise handsome face was by
IL ruined. On the occasion OF a charity
performance he appeared as Romeo. He
wai lusty in figure and voice, and by no
mean. u bad actor. His venture into
5~hakespearean heroism was measurably sue
cessful.. Wasn't his snub-nossd Romeo
comicali On the contrary, it was a nasal
triumph. BY means Of wax and paint he
built out his nose to fine proportions, and no
stranger In the audience suspected the i'm
position. He afterward declared that the
mails for a week brought tonder missi yes
from maidens whom at that matinee be had
distracted. IL is a common practice for
actors to add nrtihcially to their noses for
comic purposes, but l never heard Of another
instance OF 1t being lone for Identification
