Still they come-colisions on the elevated
roads in the fog. There were two yesterday
morning, but according to official authority.
each was more triflng than the other. This is
o happy circumstance, apparently due only to
the extraordinary coed luck of the manage
ment. The unpleasant significance Of the acct
dents lies In the fact that they happened at all.
Surely, if the inducement were liberal enough,
some one connected with the company would
be able to apply the principle of the block sys-
tenn to these roads and render collisions impOs-
gible,

There is distincs opera-bouffe flavor about
The elopement of young McKeever and his wife,
of Orange who were separated as soon as they
were married. 1t was claimed at the time that
the boy-husband had been frightened into the
marriage, and his stern father speedily made
all arrana dement's for legal proceedings to set the
ceremony aside az void. The elopement of the
pair was announced yesterday. This left the stern
parent in predicament he could hardly prove
that his SON had been forced into the marriage
unless he could also show that the boy had now
been abducted. Forgiveness was his only
refuge and he has yielded gracefully to circum-
stances and the spirit of the Christmas season.
1t is now his plain duty to give the young folks
q chance.
Statistics indicate that the immigration to the
United States for 1886 will amount to about
100000 souls. In eleven months 365,577
foreigners have come to stay by way OF ocean
ports; while in 1885, ON the first of Decem Der,
3l4, 645 had arrived. A considerable increase
over last year may therefore be looked for.
But in 1882 the total was.735, 900, and n 1881
100000. Despite the increase of this year, a
comparison Of these figures with those of pre-
vious periods will encourage those patriotic
Americans who fear that Immigration VIII
swamp us. There is still a possible chance for
native born Americans. Moreover, it should
not be supposed that immigrants add nothing
to the Nations wealth. On an
average 1t is estimated that each one brings in
eS5 10 money. That would make their contri- |
button to our wealth this year about |

Harper,s Ferry Jottings.

Mr.. Edtor:-We feel very thank
full. to O for the kindly notice of
our concert in your last issue, a re-
port of which we neglected to send at
an earlier date. We feel it a privi-
lege to he able to make public ac-
acknowledgement of the assistance rem
dered us by persons of sister denom-
nations and non professors; there
by, like the good Samaritan, showing
their high regard for that great vir-
tue, before which all other deeds
dwarf and are as sounding brass"
when not supplemented by charity,
which is but dross when confined too
closely at home. In addition to the
names mentioned last week, L will
add those of Mrs. George Green and
Miss Fannie C~artzdafner. These la
dies are fine ~vocalists and each ia
vored us with a solo, and in their turn
were Justify encored by an apprecia-
tive audience. Miss Cartzdafner is
a native of Ohio, and is visiting her
aunt, Mrs. G. F. Cross. On the fan
cy table quite an array of useful ar
ticles were presented. A palmleaf
fan, quite unique in appearance, had
painted on it's surface a spray of
flowers and a representation of JEFF
f~erson's Rock. An a~ppreciative mind
applied this fan early in the evening,
and the ladies of the Aid Society
have since gladly received an order
for another of such historic value.
The work was done by Miss Jennie
Chambers. Mrs. Edwards and Miss
Mary Cross assisted Mrs. Kirwan at
this table. Miss Fannie Trussell was
at the confectionery table. Those
who dispensed ice cream and cake
were too numerous TO mention, but,
will heartily commend IL audiences
to all others for their kind patronage
to US, with renewed thanks for the
same. Very respectfully.

Morgan Solid for Wilson.

We believe we can o safely say
that old Morgan's five votes will be
cast in the Congressional Convention
for our present worthy representative,
Hon. VIM. l.. Wilson, for Congress,
as the primaries last Saturday almost
confirm this. There is no man that
deserves it more than Mr.. Wilson, for
while other Congressman have been
running over the country setting
up conventions he has remained at
his post of duty serving his con-
stituency and his country by the
closest attention to the business for
which he was selected. This alone
should commend him to the people.
