Now for Christmas. One holi-
day suggests another and the JOY
of one celebration whets the appe-
tite for the festival that is less than
a month ahead of us. The prepa-
rations for Christmas and New
Years should now begin while the
spirit is upon US, and every house
hold will look forward to the merri-
ment ahead. Peace and plenty in
the land will make the Yuletide the
brightest and most joyous we have
had for years and there will be
generous rivalry in the next cele-
bration. Let the good work begin
and 60 on merrily to delightful
fruition.

1t is known to you all that the
junior preacher was sent away on a
short vacation. He needed rest
and his many friends made up
purse for him, and the senior
preacher ''hustled" him off. When
he returns he may speak for him
self, and may he now have good
time, and come back well and hap
py. He left Baltimore on the
9th, for Boston, going by water.
If his courage holds good, he will
leave Boston for New York, Phila-
delphia, Harrisburg, Pittsburg,
Wheeling, then to Bloomington,
Md, to see his mother, and prob
ably peep in at Bro. Jones to see
the "new baby" and then come

S2jOO on II Corpse.

/ heard lately Of pathetic case Of
loneliness which comes to stranger in
n strange land, when suddenly deprived
of lifelong companion, under the most
painful circumstances Of doubt and mys-
terry. The wife of Frcnchman employed
rs a designer in one of our great tex
tile manufactures missed her husband,
upon whom she was dependent for sup.
port. Weeks passed away, and as he
was known to have money on his person
it was feared he had met, as the report
ers say, with foul play. AZ last his body
was found floating near one of the briugcs
on Charles River. Upon it was discov-
cred $25OO which the Frcnchman had
secreted in his clothing rs safer place
than savings bank or deposit vault,
and suspicious that he was murdered fol
his money wcIe abatcd by the discovery.
As for the widow, she was victim OF
conflicting cmotions-of grief for the
loss of her husband, aud OF JOY that Inc
had not left her pcunilcss. She had re
solved to remain in this country till h,
was found dead or alive, but now she

Carroll D.. Wright says: 1.-The depart
ment is inquired of from time to time as
to the rate of wages paid in different en-
Payments in the different states in the
Union, with the expectation that u def
mite answer can be made-for instance,
for puddlers in New York or carpenters
in Ohio-or at least that just such def
mite results are waiting only to be gath
cred and presented in tabular form in a
way to settle the matter of rates of
wages for every occupation in every
state and country of the civilized world.
Reflection seems hardly needed to show
that such figures do not and cannot ex-
list. Large collections from important
establishments of different countries, if
made substantially at the same time and
exactly on the same basis, would prove
the nearest approach to such information.
