Preachers Appointed at Harvard.

Preachers Appointed at Harvard.
 BOSTON, May 12.-A meeting of the board of overseers of Harvard college this morning concurred with the president and fellows in their vote that five preachers to the univer- sity be annually appointed by the president and fellows with the concurrence of the board of overseers, who in conjunction and with the consent of the Hummer professor of Christian morals shall arrange and con- duct the religious services of the university. The following gentlemen were appointed as preachers for the year 1SS69 The Rev. B. E. Hale, D. D.; the Rev. Phillips Brooks, D.. D.; the Rev. Alex. Mckenzie, D. D.. the Rev. Richard Montagu, A. B.. and the Rev. George A. Gordon, A. B., electing as Plum mer professor of Christian morals Francis G. Peabody, A. M.
 The overseers also voted that it was ad- visable to permit applicants for admission to present a scientific substitute for either Greek or Latin, one of these two languages to be always required and provision being made for e]eme mentary instruction in Greek and Latin as elective in the college course; also in addition to the present acquisitions for admission to the department of history a proper knowledge of the outlines of univer- sal history and of the history of the United States should also be required, that a more constant attendance at recitations should be required and such attendance should be more stringently enforced than now is the case, that more careful attention should be given by the faculty to the admin istration of the elective system, and that 8 more careful supervision should be exer- cised by the faculty through committees or in such other way as may seem best over the choice of studies and over the results of such choice as shown by the daily work of the undergraduates.

tween business parties. Now in ths relation
 ship which has just been established the
 church may declare it, but it's eetion is sim
 ply declarative. The act is of God. The
 office has been created and filled by him.
 Having been filled by our brother, in re-
 sponse to your call, it is your duty to see
 that he comes not to want in the exercise of
 his office. He is te devote himself to your spiritual welfare, and there is upon you an obligation. You must support him by your presence in the worship of God. Again in promising him your support you are promising, hot alone for yourselves, but for others. We Presbyterians believe in the responsibility of parents for children, and if your children have not been brought up to attend the preaching of Gods word, it lies at your door, and not that of your pas tor. You are bound also to bring in those about you who do not attend church. Your is not wholly with your pastor; it is with Christ, through him. This is a church of Christ and as such is brought in re- lation with the other churches of this city. I charge you that in such relations you forget not that you are in com pany with them, working for the same mas ter. I charge you to remember these obliga- tions to your pastor, to each other, to those outside the fold ,and to your sister churches" The exercises closed with prayer by the mod I orator and the singing of the Doxology by | the congregation, after which the pastor pro- | nounced the benediction.

The Sttuatton at other Points.

PORTLAND, Me-, May 12.-Two weeks ago the employees of the Eagle sugar refinery asked for semi-monthly payments and an in crease from s1.65 to $1.75 per day. The con cern has granted semi monthly payments, but declined to advance the pay now. It will, however, at the close of the season give to every man who completes the time an ad- ditional ten cents day for every day of the season, thus giving to all who keep at work and do good work the amount asked for. One of the men said this morning: ''We shall not ask for eight hours. We are will ing to work at least ten hours and shall not MRk at eleven hours if we get good pay for our time"
 BOSTON, May 12-Six more carpenter firms signed the eight hour agreement to- day.

 Works Starting Up Again.
 CHICAGO, May 12.-Thirty three clothing manufacturing firms, representing nearly the entire trade of the city, decided to shut down indefinitely from to morrow night. This is caused by the tailor shop bosses who demand an increase in wages ranging from fifteen to twenty per cent, which the manufacturers say they cannot grant. About six hundred bosses, twelve hundred cutters and twenty five hundred tailors will be affected by the shut down.
 PULLMAN, Ill.,, May 12.-The Union foun- dry and car wheel works were opened this morning with about 225 men, about half the full force. Manager Shumway stated that he had assurances that about seventy men would return to work tomorrow and expects more to follow shortly. Two switch engines were also started to work. The Pullman officials state that when the shops are reopened it will be on the old basis. The various departments will be started with enough men and each can be run with force sufficient to operate the works The strikers say if their demands are not conceded they will simply leave town with good record.
