One of wendell Phillips Retorts.

FROM the FIlduelpnla freSS.
Mr.. Purvis told a good and characteris-
tic story of the late Wendell Phillips, who
fought side by side with him during the
battle for emancipation. One day he arose
to address meeting that was more than
usually hostile to the abolitionists and had
howled down and insu1ted several previous
speakers. Mr. Phillips walked to the front of
the platform and, scanning the angry faces
in front of him with keen and feerless
eye, began: 'sYou scoundrels!" Instantly
there was storm of angry howls and ours
es, but when they ceased he repeated in a
louder voice: "You scoundrelsl'' Again
the storm rose, and again he repeated the
term. The fourth time the American ad-
miration for fsarlessness and fair play as
serted itself, and the balance of his speech
was listened to in silence and respect An
other time Mr.. Phillips was in railway
car in which were a number of ministers
returning from convention. Among the
number was a man with loud, strident
voice, who was loudly declaiming against
the abolitionists, and especially against
Mr.. Phillips. He was talking at every one
in the car, and finally shouted that he I'M
derstood that Mr.. Phillips was ON board.
Calling the conductor he asked him to point
out MI Philips The conductor indicated
the orator, who had been quiet and inter-
ested listener.
The little man with the voice strobe up
the aisle to adisrespectful distance, and after
striking an attitude, the following colloquy
took place:
$50 you are Wendell Phillipsl"
ST am, SIR" replied the orator, quietly.
'sThen why don't you go south and
preach your doctrine thereF' shouted the
little minister.

The Opening StrOng-Money still
High-Sugar Refineries Weak-The
Close Quiet.

New YORK, Aug. %.
Railroad bonds were more quiet, but displayed
a firmer tone and among the bonds advances are
over a week. The sales reached S791 600 Mack
mac and Marquette Land Grants rose 1 to SO,
Mobile and Ohio fours 115 to Sc, Peoria seconds
to &c. Reading thirds ~ to 43.
Stocks opened very strong on the expectation
that something would be done to-day by the
United States treasurer and advances over last
nights figures extended to 2A per cent. in the
case of Chicago Gas, with the general list from "a
to N per cent. higher. The demand for money,
however, was still high and the bears were dis
posed to regard the prospects as still unpromis-
ing and sold the list off again in fractional amounts
althou gh in only few cases were the early ad
vances wiped out. There was liberal covering,
however, and the room traders to ok the long side
again and London aided in put ting the market
up on the shorts by moderate purcha ses of its
favorites. The weak spot in the market was
Sugar Refineries which fell away nearly per
cent and failed to make good the loss although
rallying sharply later in the day. The improve
ment, once fairly started, made rapid progress
and continued until late in the last hour, when
the gains over las night extended to about per
cent. Toward the close some realizations of
profits accrued on the days advance, causing a
slight reaction in figures, but the firm tone was
maintained and the close was quiet but firm at
near~the best prices of the day.
Closing reported prices over the private wires

1t will be necessary to turn the readers
attention to things ecclesiastical for little
time in this history. To the close of DR..
Trumbulls pastorate there began to be
mutterings in the air concerning his wan
ing abilities as a preacher. The burden of
years was pressing upon him. AS early as
1910 it was declared (as foil most prob
ably to something of an adverse character)
''that the society return their. grateful
acknowledgement to their reverend pas
tor for his long and faithful services, that
they feel an entire confidence in the dis
charge of his ministerial duties and wish
him useful and happy old age in this
society"
In 1874 the matter came up again, and it
was esVoted that a committee be appointed
to confer with DR.. Trumbu1l respecting the
expediencey of settling a colleague" This
committee reported late in the year, but
their memorandum unfortunately is lost.
Nothing was done, however. The next year
communication was received from the
doctor, which called forth the following
expression from his people: "We are en-
tirely satisfied with the Communication
this day made to the Society by our Rev.
Pastor; that we respect him in his Office
and cordially wish that his last efforts as q
| Minister may be blessed by seeing the work
of the Lord abunda1ftly flourish under his
| ministry"
At the annual meeting in December
1916, the doctor submitted another paper
for they adjourned two weeks "to take DIR
Trumbull's proposals into consideration.
At the expiration Of this time the society
met and voted ''That we will continue
DR.. Trumbull in the ministry
Thus matters went on until the annua
meeting in 1918, when there was chosen g,
committee in addition to the Presidential
| Committee to assist the Church COMMITTEE
| in getting a Gospel Minister to settl
amongst us in the Ministry" The chair
man of this joint deputation was DR.
Joseph Foote, a warm and lifelong frient
of Dr.. Trumbull. This committee set a
work and in the following spring-1819-
the Rev. David D. Field preached on trial
At the next society meeting they votet
they were pleased with him as "Preache
of the Gospel Ministry" and directed tina
he should continue four Sabbaths more.
For some reason Mr.. Field was not en-
/ craoad His a Mr. CLARK
and of him the society said: 'tVoted unan
mously that we are satisfied with MI
Clarks Preaching and that the committe
be instructed to hire him to preach on pre-
baton for Settlement, eight Sabbath
more"
Notwithstanding these strong expires
sions.of favor Mr.. Clark was not retained
In the meantime DR.. Trumbull died-Feh
