AN INTERESTING MEETING.

Tuesday evening, February 2s, quite a
congregation assembled in the Presby-
terian Church, at Mount Airy, to witness
the anniversary exercises of the two
Missionary Societies of the Church--the
Woman's Foreign Missionary Society,
and the Young Ladies Mission Band. A
well-arranged programme was excellent
ly carried out. Besides singing, there
we're couple Of recitations and read
ing by Miss Grimes. Then followed a
"Plea of the Nation" seven young la
dies dressed in the costumes of the diff
ferent countries, set forth their desire
that Christianity should become the re-
ligion of each nation. The countries re-
presented were Siam, China, Japan, In-
dia, Syria and Africa. The piece was
we'll executed. With a little practice
they would all make first class heathens.
The reports of the Secretaries showed
that the societies have been quite active
during the past year and have raised a
very fair amount of money for the two
glorious causes of Home and Foreign
Missions. AS usual, the faithful few
have to bear the heat and burden of the
day, whilst the many are careless aud I'M
concerned, and have their share of croak-
ers and franks. who never will do any.
thing better than snarl.
Following the reports of the Secreta
ries, Miss Ella Kuhl, of Sac Paulo, Brazil,
gave very interesting talk about her
work and the work of Missions in that
country. She portrayed, in very pleas
ant way, the difficulties which the Mis-
sionary has to overcome in establishing
christianity; the ignorance and degrade
ton of the people and their eagerness to
know more OF 'the new religion when
they have once heard about it.
Thus ended a meeting which ought to
stimulate Christians to greater activity,
and self denial, if need be. ?

A Protest Against sensatIonaIisn

Every cheap and nasty charlatan in art or
literature prefers to wiring the nerves of sem
sibility rather than to move the abeyant inn
pulses of the heart 1t is easier to make a
man shudder than to mako him shout
hallelujahs An epileptic fit on the sidewalk
win move the vulgar crowd when the elo-
quence Of a Burke would not reach them. A
hanging will draw more women than will
Rachel. An idea can only enter through the
portals Of intelligence, but cry Of agony
uses every nerve for its circuit. Sensation
alism, therefore, as the word indicates, deals
with the heroes Of sensation, and there is no
wretch so ignorant, SO deprayed, SO con-
temptibly weak in every human attribute,
that he cannot disgust and horrify US when
his capacity to do anything else Is gone.-

The Legislature will probably be
called upon to help Hunterdon-and it
may be, some other counties-out of a
legal difficulty. According to law the
Petit Jurors for the April term of Court
should have been drawn in open Court
last Tuesday, but the snow bound roads
prevented the attendance of either the
Sheriff or the other Court officers, and
hence no jury was drawn. This is a
serious matter. 1t will never do to skip
a term of Court, or it will let up little
too easy on the tax payers. They are not
used to it, and the saving of several
hundreds of dollars in this way might
take their breath. Don't let us fool
with the buzz saw. Something must be
done, and done quickly, to start the jury
wheel so that the April Court may move
on with its usual stately tread. Hunter

A LITTLE LESS THAN LOVED.

To be little less than loved;
o, empty hearts the wide world over,
Have you not often thought OF this
While waiting for the one true loyerf
To be little less than loved,
To have all friendship and all honor,
Yet miss that one kind, tender hand
Which sets woman's crown upon her.
Toiove a little less than love,
When one could make one heart the gladdest
Or be a little less than loved
Dear heart, know not which is saddest.

LETTER FROM STOCKTON.


STOCKTON, N. j., March 81, 1888.
Our annual town meeting, held on
Tuesday of last week, resulted as usual,
in the election of the Democratic ticket.
The following were elected:
Town Clerk-F. w. Venable.
ASSESSOR. Clinton Reading.
Collector. V. G. Barber.
Freeholder-R Robert Holcombe.
Constabies-J. &. Wilson, John Sher-
wood.
ommittee-Joseph Servis.
On account of the storm (Which the old
resident is forced to acknowledge he has
never seen equaled), there was very
light vote out, ninety-two being polled IN
North Delaware and one hundred aud six
here in South Delaware An Inspector of
Election in each district, failed to reach
the polling place, and'the old ballot boxes
had to be used in both places. So much
for our $25 combinations.
By the way, our old friend, Mr.. d. V.
L. Schenck, that stauuch old Republican,
failed to reach the town meeting. We
judge the drifts must have been very bad
in his neighborhood, as it is something
unusual for Mr., S. to miss an election.
While we are on the subject of cleo
tions,~ we should state that our annual
school meeting was held last Tuesday
evening. All day it could be seen that
something unusual was going on. Knots
of men could be seen in close and conf
DENTAL conversation. On arriving at the
school meeting we found what that some
thing was The school room was filled
with men. 1t was evident that more than
usual interest was taken Ia the election of
School Trustee. The election resulted in
DR.. o. H. Sproul being chosen Trustee,
he receiving 81 votes, Mr.. G. I. Hunt re-
ceived 20 and Mr.. Samuel E. Diamond,
30. Sammy is good fellow, but most
people thought him too young for the Of
tice. Ninety five votes were polled, the
largest vote out in this School District
for number of years. The usual orderof
things would be about a dozen out and
somebody have to be coaxed into taking
the office. We are glad our people have
walked up and shown some interest in
these things. We hear our town was not
alone in excitement over election of School
Trustee, as Sergeantsyille had quiet a
number out, 67, and their meeting re-
suited In the election of Mr.. George W.
Bovine as Trustee. We hear some of the
fair sex took advantage of the law, allow
ing them to vote at school meeting. We
did not hear whether they voted to show
their belief in Woman's Rights, or wheth.
er they came out to help defeat the man
from over the creek.
Whooping cough seems to be going the
rounds pretty well here. Mr.. Thomas
Corners, from over the river, lost child
with it last week and we hear has another
very sick with it. Mr.. VIM. Menaugh
is also suffering with that disease.
Mr.. William Hice is quite sick with
pneumonia.
Messrs. s. B. and E. W. Twining are
at work running a switch into their main
quarry. Mr.. James Sillery is also run
ming switch into his quarry. Mr.. Sillery,
sometime ago, built a miniature Brooklyn
bridge in bis quarry, in order to run the
dirt away from his strip. We bear Mr..
S. intends TO largely increase his force of
men during this season. 1t looks as if
Stockton stone were in more demand.

--Ons Of the latest nuisances with which
our city has been supplied is the pocket
rubber stamp. While in legitimate bust
ness it is help to the merchant or manu-
facturer, in the hands of the small boy it
is the greatest kind of an annoyance. No
matter where you go, into any public
place, every picture, mat, sale or amuse-
ment bill is mutilated by the name of
somebody who has purchased one of these
twenty five cent stamps. Even valuable
books do not escape their notice hymn
books and Bibles in churches, books in
the Public Library, express packages,

that will allow of mark is not too sacred
