CORNWALL.

Election talk is over, only few are still wondering how it went so. The day passed off very quietly in Cornwall. The secret ballot booths worked very nicely and the last doubt about the sys- tenn being deathblow to buying votes was dispelled. In years past 1t was claimed that some persons Tn town re- ceived money for their votes and were led up to the ballot box etc., but now all this is changed and the pure election in Cornwall in 1888 is only equaled by the pure election of 1890.

Miss Etta Ames, who has been preach ing for the past four years or more at the chapel at North Norfolk, gave notice last Sunday that she should close her labors and bid farewell to the church and her friends week from next Sun day, Nov 16. I wish to say few words respecting her efforts and work in that place. When she first came to North Norfolk there was little, if any, spiri- tual life. Rev A. N Benedict held a service every Sunday afternoon, and while I would not in the least disparage or speak slightingly of his work, it was evident no great good was accomplish ed. Dancing, drinking and immortality abounded. Miss Ames came and threw her whole soul into the work. She could reach class no man could reach. The house was crowded, and for long time the interest was unabated. An Advent church of more than twenty members was organized, mostly of the laboring class. She was ordained pastor and for some time peace and harmony prevailed. In my next I propose to speak of some of the difficulties she has experienced in her work.
