DANCING IN A CHURCH.
Eating New England Dinner. and Waiting
Round the Pulpit.

Eating New England Dinner. and Waltzing
Round the Pulpit.
From the New York Herald, Wednesday.
Thirty pretty girls, in just as pretty cos
TUNES; 200 other people, mostly bald-headed
and gray or matronly, and a dude with a
collar on that should have had cuff button
in the top of it, gave life and animation to
the Central Congregational church last eve
ming.
The interior of the church presented a
rather peculiar sight. The pews had been
removed and in their places were old-fash-
ioncd New England deal tables loaded with
substantial food, piled on blue and white
crockory, that irresistibly carried one back
TO tho old frame-house days i'm the rugged
granite hills Tallow candles sputtered and
dripred and cast iitiul shadows OH the big
white arches over head.
Was il solemn ?
Not much. The soemnity was hidden
away along with the hymnals and Bibles,an
merrimont and pork and beans reigned su-
premc.
A Bald-headed deacon, with a black coat
and white braid, sang something, whether II
was " Climbing Up the Golden Stairs " or
sold Hundred" no one knew or.cared. Pink
and blue and yellow dresses, with kerchiefs
and coquettish caps, flashed around every
where. They were devoid of fiounces or
trains, and had high waists. They were
such as our grandmothers were supposed 10
wear when they melted up pewter plates to
make bullets.
The supper lasted from to 10, and then
came something more interesting and decid-
edly more novel. The tables were cleared
away, the crumbs gathered off the cotton
druggets, the musicians struck up waltz
and pious members and giddy girls whired
around in its inazes under the shadow of the
big organ and the pulpit The whole affair
was under the dictatorship of the fair Bible
class, with Misses Van Zile Patrique, Lyon,
Waterloo and Lloyd as managers

Some glorious outlines pass,
Oflove, and truth hnd holiness and power;
own them Thine, o Christ, and bless Thee for

/ have no words to bring
Worthy of Thee, my King,
And yet one anthem in.Ihy praise

The heart is full the eye entranced above,
But words all melt away In silent awe ana love.
How can the lip be dumb,
The hand all still and numb,
When Thee heart doth see and own
Her Lord and God aloncg
Tune for ThySelf the music of my days,
And open Thou my lips that may show Thy
praise
Yea, let my whole life be
One anthem unto Thee,
And let the praise of lip and life
Outring all sin and strife.
OJesus, Master he Thy name supreme
For Heaven and earth the one the grand, the
eternal theme.

SIIEER COINAGE.

EA-Sctrctnry NndOms views upon Its sus-
pension and Reform.
William Window, secretary of the treas
ury in the Garfield cabinet, was in Chicago,
Friday morning on his way TO Washington
and New York. He was asked his opinion
of Clevcland's letter advocating u suspen.
sion of silver coinage. Mr.. Window said
at seemed TO me to be a little premature, al
though l believe the present coinage OF
S2,000,000 per month should be suspended,
and thus far agree with him."
Do you expect any disturbances i'm the
monetary system to result from this con-
tinued coinage ?"
Not unless something occurs to cause an
advance in gold, in which case it would be
boarded and command a premium over sill
Yer. While nothing injurious may result
from the failure of Congress to suspend the
coinage of silver, the present condition is not
safe, and ought, think, to be changed.
believe this country requires the double
standard, but with the silver dollar contain
ing enough silver TO make it worth gold
dollar, then il would he immaterial how
much was coined and there might be free
coinage The Inconvenience of silver would
be overcome by issuing certificates"

now THE MONEY GOES.

The bill TO put Mrs. Grant on the pen
sion list and give her $4,000 a year makes
no special distinction in her case. Mrs.
Garfield and Mrs. Polk, the only other
wdow'of presidents now living, receive
$4,000 year apiece.
1t is hard to see why we should pay
such sum, or, indeed, any sum, to the
relies Of our deceased presidents. We
pension wounded soldiers of the war who
are unable to provide for themselves as
they would have been had they not been
wounded, or the widows of soldiers who
were deprived OF their husbands by the
war; and for this there is good reason
But why should we pension the widows
of men who We're presidents? Some rea-
sons may be given for national assistance
to Mrs. Garfield, as the death of her hus-
band is traceahlc to his public position.
But not so with Mrs. Grant and Mrs.
Polk. Their husbands were long In the
public service, and, SO far from losing
anything by their services there, they
were great gamers by virtue of their pc
sitlons. These ladies are not in need,
and the commiseration of the country
cannot be invoked to Justify the payment
OF $4,000 year to each of them. 1t is
simply an cXuhcrlnce Of generosity with
the public money, and the existence of n
tempting surplus in the treasury, that
lead to such expenditures, and we 90 not
look for change for the better in this
respect
