George Eliot and Carlyle.

Exchange.
George Eliots biography by her hus-
band, Mr.. Cross, just published, is in
marked contrast with that of her great
contemporary, Carlyle. 1t is as full of
sweetness and light as his was full Of
littleness and darkness; disclosing the
gentleness and benignity of her spirit, as
the harshness and rancor of his own
were disclosed in his posthumous records.
Her works had made all mankind her
lovers, and none of them are alienated
now that they are taken into the area
mum of her spiritual life. But of Car
lyle's admirers a multitude turned their
faces away in silence and SORROW from
the portraiture of himself which his own
hand drew, lamenting that the cloud
from which he had launched his arrows
of fire were ever lifted, and such forbid
/ ding lineaments of the thunder-beareI
revealed
Both are at rest now, the stormy SO
phist and the golden-mouthed sybil, the
works they wrought broadening i'll the
remembrance of man, the informing
spirit of each, which cast such enchant
ment on the generation in which they
lived now fully disclosed, earring the les
son, if it were needed, that love crown;
with garlands only the memory of those
that loved and has but witherel char
let for the brow clothed in wrath ant
wrinkled with menaces and scorn Of ii
men and all things under the stars.

Boston, Oct 26-At al out o'clock this
morning. gang of twenty trackmen on the Mas
sachusetts Central railroad were being con-
veycd to their work by an engine and flat-car
The men were sitting on the sides of the car ten
on each side. When near Oakdale, without a
seconds warning all the men on one side were
swept off in some way, at present unknown, but
probably by fallen tree telegraph pole Nine of
the men were either killed orinjured. Ambulances
were ordered at the Massachusetts General Hos-
pital to be in readiness for the injured men,
who, 1t is expected, will arrive by this after
noon.
LATER-It Is now learned that none of the
men were killed. One man had both legs broken

a siding so near the main track that the con-
struction train struck it.

tillers and citizens. W. F. Hobbs and Calvin

ky in the woods near that town. There are no

THE CINCINNATI ELECTION FRAUDS.
Judge Buchwalter Rules in Favor of the Re-
publicans, and Continues the Injunction.

CINCINNATI, Oct 25.-Judge Buchwalters
little courtroom was crowded to its utmost
capacity this morning by attorneys, candidates
and citizens interested in the result of the legal
proceedings before him in connection with the
delivery of certificates of election to the four
candidates for senator from Hamilton county.
The matter had been argued aud submitted to
him on a demurrer and on motion to dissolve a
restraining order heretofore issued by him in
favor of the four Republican candidates. on their
petition. He rendered his decision at consider
able length, holding, as to the demurrer, first,
that there was no misjoinder of parties; that the
four candidates could sue together or separately;
second. that the court had jurisdiction. rot to
declare who should hold the Office, for THAI
was clearly the province Of the Legislature
upon contest, but to declare who
was entitled to certificate for that was per-
sonal right. separate from the title to the Office
He also held that it was not necessary, in
order to obtain the aid of the court to prevent
irreparabe injury, to do more than make it a
prima facie case. While in this case the aver
ments of fact in the petition were insufficient
yet the plaintiffs were entitled to amend in
that particular, if necessary, and in any case
they were entitled to an order to stay the hand
of the clerk until the merits of the could be
determined in another court The injunction
was therefore continued in force, and the man
damus case, involving the same points, Was
taken up to the Circuit Court.
The entry in the Injunction case gave the
plain tiffs twenty days within which to amend,
and continued the restraining order until further
orders of the court
The mandamus proceeding before the Circuit
Court, composed of Judges Cox, Smith and
Swnge, occupied the day, Mr.. Jordan, for the re-
spondent, argued against the jurisdiction of the
court. The argument was not ended at the ad-
journment of court.

MIR. HALE TO THE MUGWUMPS.
4 Little More Light on Suffrage, Finances
and Education in the South.

Boston, Oct. 26-Rev. Edward Everett Hale
publishes sharp letter in reply to the mug
wump criticisms of his recent speech on the
Southern question. He says:
at seems to me that an easy solution Of the
oligarchy difficulty will be for the oligarches
to cease to be ogarchies and become republics
You know that the Constitution of the United
States guarantees republican govern ments to all
the States AS to the question itself which you
raise, there is probably no issue really between
you and the Republicans of Massachusetts. Let
MS begin at the beginning. We Republicans of
Massachusetts generally believe that Delaware
is pocket borough; that the Hon. T. F. Bayard
what senators and what representatives
it shall send to Congress. We
believe that, under a fair system of
government, the Republicans make majority
in that State have no doubt that you believe
the same thing. But at this moment it is not
quite delicate to your friends at Washington for
you to say SO. private gentleman dining with
a few friends does not hesitate to say so. My
little speech seems to have been Godsend to
all the famshed editors My friends of the
Boston Herald wish that it had been longer, as
understand you did, Thus / said the oligarchies
could not borrow dollar at par. The Herald
says that when Alabama pays 5 per cent inter-
est it can borrow at 105: at 6 per cent. it can
borrow at LOG, and that Georgia, by borrowing
at per cent, can get money at ll2-all OF
which is true. But. really. when one says that
a broken-down tradesman cannot borrow dol
lar, one does not mean that the pawn-brokers
will lend him nothing One means that he can
not borrow except at usurious rates.
Now, the State of Connecticut, which is
republic, refunded a part of its debt last sum-
mer at 2. 81 per cent My speech would have
been much better for my purpose had said:
While republic borrows money at 297 per
cent, an oligarchy has to pay per cent, 6 per
cent, and even T. Again. said that none of the
ogarches can establish system of common
schools, to which the Herald replies that No
people has made an effort SO remarkable in that
direction I was not speaking of the Southern
'people'-whom l respect. Twas speaking of the
ogarchy- l distrust l am quite sure
that once month, on an average, some bland
Southern gentleman, with letters of introduc
ton from the Governor of his State, comes
into my Office and tells me- first. that as%ow all
about Southern education-whieh the Herald
doubts-and. second, that they have no adequate
common school system there, and must have
the help of Northern people to educate their
children. Perhaps l should have said this at
length"

HE MARRIED A WIFE TOO YOUNG
To Suit His Congregation, and Was Com
PEELED to Vacate the Pulpit.

READING, Oct ga sensation has been Gre
ated by the sudden busting of Rev. d. B. Small
from his pulpit at the Corner Church, and the
only reason thus far assigned is the fact that he
married lady thirty years younger than him
self Rev. d. B. Small is ifty-three years old.
and he is still an active, vigorous, good-looking
clergyman of the Lutheran denomination, and
is in excellent standing. He is well-read and
able preacher, and has four congregations one
large one at the Corner Church, in Albany town
ship, and the other three scattering. A year ago
he buried his first wife. He has half dozen
bright young children at home, and he looked
around for a second wife. In his congregation
was Miss Amelia Dietrich. aged twenty three
years. an educated young farmers daughter and
sister of Rev. Dietrich now missionary at
Rajuhmondry, India.
Farmer Dietrich also belonged to Rev Smals
congregation, and the clergyman was "a frequent
and welcome visitor at the farm house. He
finally learned that the daughter liked his chill
dren and as the clergyman fancied Miss Diet
rich, he proposed. They were married last
month and the young wife took charge of the
minister's household his farm. The mar
riage created great deal of talk and finally lots
of scandal was spread. Some one broke open the
young wife's bureau drawer and stole the letters
she had received from the minister when single;
TOOK garDleu extracts from them and placed
them public exhibition at a neigh boring cross
roads store. In this way the pastor was held up
to ridcule.
Finally, as the Rev. Small alleges, the conss-
tory of the church, without. notifying Rev.
Small, as he contends they should have done,
held a meeting, and motion to put in new
minister in his place was carried. This surpris-
ing step astouuded Rev. Small, and he has now
appealed to a synodical committee for An oppor
tunity of defense. The committee has been APP
pointed to hear the case.
Rev. Small claims that all there is against him
is his marriage to a young wife: that his letters
to her were of the purest character, and when
rightly connected, would convince any one of
this fact; that depriving him of his pulpit took
away the only regular income he had, inasmuch
as his own farm is greatly incumbered and his
other congregations too small to pay regu-
larly, so that in reality the gross SANDER set
ahoat against him has had the effect of even
taking the bread from his children's mouths.
The young wife stands up bravely for her
husband, and says she has never regretted her
marriage. Her missionary brother approves of
it, but her father and her other brothers object.
The affair is the leading topic of talk in church
circles in the northern end Of the county. aud
serious difficulties ray yet occur, as both fac
lions are exceedingly warm over it. Rev. Small
however, has declined to go to the church, in
order that violence may not take place. He
says he wants peace; but that he will make a
vigorous defense at the hearing is universally
acknowledged. G..
