THE SUMMING UP.
Continued nom First rage.

some farmer brought some sandwiches and
asked so cents for them. The drifts en-
tirely covered the cars. The relief party
were from o'clock in the evening until
the following morning in completing their
task. They had four locomotives to the train,
and even then il was almost impossible to
force their way through the drifts. Once
they got stuck themselves, and an extra
engine was sent for from Trenton. The
water in the locomotives gave out, and the
men were forced to throw snow into the
tanks to keep sufficient water in the
boilers TO reach Trenton. The drifts IN
many places were O mile In length and
were from twelve 10 fifteen feet high.
On Monday night and Tuesday morning
several trains which had been delayed at
Tullytown and Bristol, on the Pennsylya-
mia road, were drawn into Trenton. The
passengers spent several hours with nei-
Their food nor sleep, and were nearly lam
ished. They were at once sent to hotels
in the city and provided for at the expense
OF the company. All passengers were cared
for in this way, and last night the hotels
were 80 crowded that it was difficult to get
any kind OF accommodation. Some OF the
trains which were snowbound at Bristol
did not arrive here until yesterday. All
had suffered more or less from cold and
hunger On some Of the trains only crack
ers and water could be procured, and
on this scanty fare they lived for
a day or more. The railroad COM
pany did everything in its power to get
trains through, but the wind blew so hard
that as fast rs they cleared the way 1t
would fill again. No railroads were run
ming through TO Philadelphia today and
newspapers sold at greatpremium, bring
ing in some instances rs high as
rs cents each. The Philadelphia & Read
ing road is terribly blocked also. The
Legislature has not been in session this
week, the first time such
a thing has occurred in the his
tory of the State. On Tuesday there were
only three members present, and few
more arrived yesterday on the morning
trains from South Jersey. Reports from
all sections Of the State, which begin to
come in slowly, show that the country
roads are entirely filled up and travel Is
next 10 an impossibility. Milkmen and
produce dealers were unable 10 get into
the city Tor two days, and there was great
| dearth OF these articles.

THE RAILROADS AND IMMIGRA.
TION.


One Of the most promising results Of tho
recent agitation Of the subject OF immigra-
ton by the leading newspapers Of the
South Is the proposed Convention OF Rail
road Presidents TO meet at the Hot
Springs, North Carolina, on the 14th Of
April. The gentlemen moving in this mat
ter are well known throughout the country
as men OF extended influence, and their
names are aguaran.ee Of lis success. They
control the great railroad systems OF tho
South and can carry to successful issue
any plan they may agree upon. George f.
Scott Is President Of tho Richmond q Dan.
vile system, Extcin Norton Is Pres.
dent OF tho Louisville q Nashville
system, Sam Thomas Is President
81 the East Tennessee, Virginia
& Georgia system, Of which the Memphis
& Charleston Railroad II n part, and John
Inman Is a director in the Richmond &
Danville aud the Louisville 4 Nash
vile systems and also OF the Georgia
Central. They, and the Governors Of
several States. Cardinal Gibbons and
other gentlemen will be present on the
occasion, and whatever they determine
upon is TO be put in execution
at once. As TnE APPEAL suggested
when the subject was first mooied
last fall, whatever Is 10 be done 10 induce
immigration 10 the South must mainly be
done by the railroads. Increase Of popu-
lation Is 10 them increase Of passenger and
freight traffic. The more towns the more
manufactures, and these make traffic ON
the carriage OF raw material and the
distribution OF manufactured articles.
But besides tho railroads, all real
estate owners arc interested In this
movement TO secure immigrants. A man
who owns ! 900 acres OF land, by dis.
posing Of 500 Of II, at merely nomi-
nal rates 10 industrious farmers, may
thus 80 enhance the value Of the remaining
500 that II will be worth quite ms
much as he now can reasonably expect 10
receive for the whole 1000. To make
money one must spend money. The
planters who are land poor and money
hungry must therefore prepare TO do what
they can, they must contribute Of their
might 10 develop great scheme the
chances for the success Of which were
never 80 favorable rs they arc
at this moment when tho memory
Of the recent billiards Is still fresh
in the minds Of the farmers Of the North
west They are the class from which TO
recruit our population. Hardy, industri-
Gus, thrifty and energetic, they are just
the men TO reclaim our worn hillsides and
make them blossom like the rose. TIE
ArrrAl heartily indorscs this Convention
movement, and trusts that Tennessee may
be represented in II by her chief officers
and all her leading capitalists.

THE BOOK TABLE.

Julian Hawthorne has not yet estab.
lishcd such reputation IN 10 justify him
in giving to the reading world such book
as "Bcatrix Randolph"
The story Is Of a young girl, possessed Of
marvellous voice, who enters upon an
operate career under the title belonging 10
some foreign singer, and successfully de.
cciyes a New York public for an entire
season.
A rascally brotherhad previously wasted
the patrimony, reducing his father aud sis.
ter 10 q state Of dependency. IL was at
this time that the offer Of a stage career
was made 30 her by scheming imprcssario.
Tho arrival Of Morann, the foreign diva,
whose name Beatrix has been assuming,
accompanied by her devoted admirer,
Bcatrix's brother, produces the very tame
climax with which the book closes AT
his best Julian Hawthorne falls 10 far short
Of his illustrious father that comparisons
are odious, 70 that In reading this late pro-
duction, Il seems there II little hope OF his
ever approaching the literary sphere
created by his father. In the firt
place the book Ia hastily written, indi.
eating too plainly that the necessity
for an income, oycrpowers all efforts at art.
II bears marked resemblance 10 n pretty
little French story called "L0mbra," In
which the heroine enjoys n career very
similar 10 that OF Bcatrix. While Mr..
Hawthorne cannot be directly accused OF
plagiarism, II must be admitted that he
Il good asslmilntor. Mr.. Randolph, the
father u tho heroine, n not the typical
Virginian which the author attempts 10
paint. lie Is lacking In the genuine and
robust heartiness which Is characte istic
Of lhat class. There Is wanting tina del
icaic pride which would scorn 10 accept
the profits Of his daughters stage career.
From an author who has written 20 dainty
story a. Archibald Malmaison," the
public expects something better than the
illmsy story Of "Bcairix Randolph"

Religion Of the Aby..Inian..

The people profess kind of Christianity
almost identical with that of the Kopts
and Syrians, and very similar 70 that of
the Greek and Russian orthodox rites.
They are Monophysites, who recognize but
one nature in Christ. The head of the
Abyssinian church bears the title of
"Abouna," or "Our Father" and takes
rank as patriarch Of the orthodox Greek
church. He is always tonsecrated at
Alexandria, in Egypt, by the senior
patriarchs Of the Copt" church in that
country The whole country swarms
with priests, monks and nuns, whose re-
ligion consists in the performance of
utterly unintelligible and monstrous cere-
monies. Altogether, the AbyssiEian
church is the most utterly debased form
of Christianity, iIst as the habits and Gus
toms of the people denote the remnants OF
a most debased form of civilization
Nevertheless the churches are full Of
souvenirs valuable in ecclesiastical his
tory. Among the souvenirs which are in
much repute are the insignia Of the order
of Solomon's Seal, which consists of two
interlaced triangles inclosing cross with
in the large central aperture, a ring and
guard being attached to the upper apex.
