But after the termination of Mr.
Smiths labors on the Eastern Shore, his
successors did not manifest the same i'll
terest in this remote field, and the ap-
continent was left in the main to the
care of local ministers. Two camp
meetings were held on the island, the
last in 1881, under the direction OF Rev.
Asa Smith. But the larger portion OF
the old society had died out, and the
ranks had not been filled by correspond
ing accessions. The writer, IN COM
pany with friend, visited the island i'll
1885. Of the old society he found only
three living-Isma Fletcher, his wife
and Mrs. Cottrill. Like the aged sur
vivors of the l'ounty, they were the
Christian guardians Of their little island
home, the simplicity of their declining
years lending grandeur to the sublime
faith upon which they leaned. Services
were held in the cabin of Martha Floyd
on Saturday night, and on Sunday
morning in that of Isma Fletcher, the
larger portion of the islanders being
present. After the sermon, the aged
exhorter arose aud addressed q few
words to the island people, tears of deep
feeling meanwhile coursing down his
cheeks. The GOSPEL, he said, is Gods
word, and my spirit beareth witness to
its truth. lie was probably ninety years
of age, and soon after went to his rest.
Since that period the island has been
sadly neglected by the church, until ut Il
late day by the great kindness of anoble
Christian lady, neat building has been
erected there for divine worship, which
Is now regularly supplied by the Vir-
ginia Conference.
Mr.. ED1ToR:-Please allow me the
opportunity for the correction of an err
ror unwittingly made in afolmer chap
ter. / have been pleased to learn thro'
Il late private communication, that two
male descendants of the Rev. WIN. Sey-
mour. and bearing the family name.are
vet living-one in Baltimore, and the
other in Philadelphia. These two
brothers are the surviving sons of VIM.
Digby Seymour, son of the Rev. VIM,
Seymour. who removed to Carlisle as be-
fore stated. There are two surviving
daughters also of the same family, one
a widow of the late Hon. Charles w.
Carrigan of Philadelphia, the other the
wife of the Rev. Alfred II. Ames, d.
D., a prominent and influential clergy
man of the Methodist Church. There
is yet surviving, also, one of the daugh-
terso of the Rev. VIM. Seymour, who re-
sides in Philadelphia. The writer de-
sires to express his profound gratitude
for the information kindly offered re-
speeding the later history of this inter-
esting family, and is more than pleased
to learn that the family name is limo
wise extinct.

Henry Ward Beecher, in bis character

ion OF the policy of President Cleveland
from the mugwumpian standpoint. Il
have in no wise altered my opinion of
President Cieveland,n he said, and his
policy still has as many attractions for
me, in his actual workings, 5 il had when
he foreshadowed it in letters and other
documents previous to his Inauguration.
The President is right in the stand he has
taken in the controversy with the Senate,
and am quite sure the country will sus
tain him in his action. | don't believe
the discussion will hep the republican

thing on which they can quarrel with the
President. l am inc lined to think there
will be no great chang ia The revenue

pension list is being increased precludes
the possibility of reducing the tariff for
years to come. l think, as we are now,

to pension. The next sep viii be 10

before our legislators set through they

1t is reported that cave has been dis
covered in Allegany county which bids
fair to rival the famous caverns of Lur.y,
Virginia. A party of young men wi Ii an
Indian ladder twenty feet long effected an
entrance through two boulders of lime
stone, landing in a chamber about ten
feet square. Stalagmites rise to the height
of six feet, while stalactites with colors
flashing back and forth depend from the
roof clear and transparent, giving to the
whole scene fairy like coloring. Scramb-
ing over rocks the explorers next came to
a large hall, whose proportions averaged
one hundred feet in length, fifty fee high
and twenty feet bread. Here the forma-
tions were such as may be found in all
caves, fish, animals, etc, while in rocky
assures abouHded gtistening sta acties =

The Senate Committee on the District
of Columbia has decided by tie vote,
not to advise and concent to the nomins-
ton Of Jas. c. Matthews, the colored man
who was appointed TO succeed Frederick
Douglas as recorder Of deeds for the Dis
trict, and Mr.. Blackburn was au horiz.d
to report the nomination adversely. 1t is
unders' God that the votes in favor Of con
hrma'ibn were cast by Senators ingalls,,
Pike, Palmer and Brown, and those in the
negative by Senators b ack burn, Harris,
Vance and Riddleburger. The death of
Senator Miller, of California, who was
member Of the District committee, leaves
the committee with but eight members,
and hence the tie vote.

Collector Groome announced the fact
that he will distribute eight offices to
each of the Congressional districts in the
Sta'e. The other offices in his department
are under the civil s.rvice, and only tn s :
who have passed the examination can be
appointed. We have lots of intelligent
young Democrats who cou d pass tn Sc
examinations, and thus pat themselves in
position to secure office to which are at
tached hadsome sa'aries. As long as The
civil service avs exist SO Ing will we be
forced to be governed by them. Those
who want office should apply for civil
service examination.

So intensely cold was the recent
cold wave in Kansas that settlers
were frozen to death in their huts and
dug-outs. while others were frost-bit-
ten and suffered severely. Some of
the dead men were found with bread
clutched in their hands as if in the act
of eating, while others were discover
ed in their beds sleeping the sleep of
death-Oskaloosa Qa) Times.
The publication of the above is
either wilful misrepresentation or in
dicates a deplorable lack of knowledge
as to the possibilities of cold IN the
latitude of the United States, Any
ten-year old school boy knows that
under natural conditions, outside per-
haps of the unexplored polar regions,
the temperature never reaches such a
degree of cold rs to freeze 3 Taan in
simultaneously. We suppose it is
again necessary for us to say positive
ly only twelve persons frozen to death
in this section of Kansas. embracing
the six northwest counties. Those
who persisted were out in the storm,
and there is not a single instance of
freezing to death who had
shelter. -Oberlin Herald.
