/ DR.. Munhall has closed mis- work in this
( city, and those VINO invited him here ap-
/ pear to be satisfied with it. The impress
/ sion that he created on the majority or
| those who listened 10 his preaching was,
doubtless, that he Is a very earnest and
sincere man. There are some, OF course,
who liked neither the doctor nor his meth
DDS, but it would have been strange If he
had pleased everybody. OF course, we
have no reference whatever to those who
take no interest in religious matters.
1t is not possible to make an estimate
Of the results of DR.. MunhalPs work.
There is reason to think that several hum
dred were converted by his preaching, but
it is probable that the number who re-
solved to live better lite is much greater
than the number who openly protested
conversion.
AS rule reYiValists are enthusiasts
may not stand the test OF logic and rea-
son, but what does tRat matter so long as
they succeed in producing good results ?
Their purpose is to influence people TO
become active Christians, and if they are
successful there is no occasion for criti-
cising them. Now and then, doubtless,
they say things about the propriety or
justice Of which they themselves may be
in doubt, but it is not to be wondered at
IT, in their efforts to produce an effect,
and to startle people into a realization OF
the insecure position they occupy with
respect TO the future lite, they make mis-
takes.
There is one thing to be learned from
DR.. MunhalPs preaching. 1t is that TO
interest people and draw them to relig-
ious services it is necessary to talk TO
them about their home life, their everyday
affairs, and matters which are constant
ly occurring in their experience. While
elegant and scholarly essays on theOlOg-
ical subjects are appreciated by a few,
they do not attract the masses. People
must be reached before they can be bene-
ited, and the way to reach them is TO
make religious services so attractive that
they will seek the churches.

A South Carolinian ar Chicooo

A South CarOlinian at Chicago.
Col. J. J. Dargan, of Columbia, S. c.,
who was delegate to the national con
ventiOn OF tariff reformers and free traA-
ers at Chicago last week, speaks in the
most enthusiastic terms OF the conven-
ton and the prospect for the rapid spread
Of tariff reform ideas. lie is satisfied that
the time is not very distant when the
Western States will be ranked as tariff
reform States. Even now in some of them
the tariff reformers are in the majority.
Col. bargains reception was all that he
could have desired. He did not intend to
address the convention, and was not,
therefore, prepared to do so. There was
such a strong desire to hear from south
Carolina, however, that he had to yield TO
the demand for a speech. His remarks
were well received, and he was the recip-
lent of a great deal of applause.
At the conclusion of his speech an Ohio
delegate congratulated him warmly, and
said to him that at the outbreak of the
war be had refused a captains commits
sion and accepted the place OF color
bearer in order that he might have the
satisfaction of planting the Federal colors
on every fort in South Carolina. He had
hated the State, he said, but now he ad-
mired it, and felt that the country was
fully reunited.
Very many others from the Northern
and Western States took particular pains
to express their satisfaction at meeting
South Cardinals representative. Col.
bargains reception was such as to induce
him to think that he was not only repre-.
sentative of a winning cause, but, al o,
of a popular State. 1t is probable also
that he reached the conclusion that partl-
san journals do not always represent
public sentiment.

A story of the 'chestnut' kind was
told by the drummers a few years ago. to
the effect, that popular commercial
tourist who was travelling on the Georgia
railroad arose in the ladies' car as the
train stopped at Stone Mountain, and
asked if there was a Baptist minister on
board. Rev. David E. Butler, thinking
that perhaps a romantic couple wished to
be joined in the bands of wedlock on the
summit of the Gibraltar-like rock,
promptly replied: 81 profess, sir, to be a
Baptist minister" Them said the
wicked tourist, "lend me your cork
screw" "All right" said the doctor Of
divinity, taSen somewhat aback, but not
crushed. Whereupon he banded out
combination pocket knife on which the
useful cOntriyance asked for WAS ingeni-
ously riyted. Now, a minister Of Albany,
y. Y, Ri Rev. Mgr. Clueyer, ofthe church
Of Our Lady Help of Christians, has in
vented an automatic cork screw which.
it is said. will come into universal use.
Notwithstanding the prohibition agitation
there seems to be an impression that II

will go entirely out OF fashion. III

# appears from the proceedings Of the
United States Court that tho colored
brother mas been doing q brisk trade IN
tic Illicit whisky business in Lower
Georgia for some years past, but his
friends, the Republican ofIice.holders, have
either had a sympathetic feeling for him
in bis endeavors 10 earn a livelihood by
cheating the government. or have not
considered that as ward Of
the nation he ought TO be in
torfered with. The colored brother,
however, has come 10 grief, inasmuch as
he has been arrested, but as he and his
friends are the better hands at swearing,
he is managing 70 swear himself, or get
others 70 swear him out Of trouble. The
judges are also very lenient % the colored
brother, and, between his adroitDess aud
the kindness % the law officers, there will
