About a. mile beyond the Beech hill stood
Squire Macdonald's store writes J. Macdonald
O1ley In HdrDer's Young People, and one
dreary night in late autumn there came thither
nrst Rory O'More, and then Sandy Big john
and nnauy Alec Giles, all in a high state of ex-
cltement, ana asserting with much positivenesS
that they had seen the ghost on Beech hill
Now the squire as shrewd, hard-bead d
and interpretations ScOtchman as ever traded
tea for butter or sugar for eggs, and he had no
more faith in the Beech hill ghost than in the
man in the moon.
But this time the testimony Of the terrified
witnesses happened to agree remarkably. The
ghost had appeared to all in precisely the same
form, namely as white shapeleSs thing that
rolled along tho ground, uttering ehrill and
| threatening shrieks The matter was surely
worth looking into.
"Hark ye, now" said the squire at last ~
believe you're nothing better than a parcel OF
foolish boys; and to prove It, I'll 90 up to the
| Beech hill myself aud see what it is that has
come so near soaring the life out of you"
Thus speaking, he got his coat and hat and
| calling upon them to follow, set of for the
scene OF the ghosts walk. Rory and Sandy and
Alec would much rather have been excused but
pride overcame their timidity and they folio Ne
in their leaders track. Hardly had they reached
the foot OF the hill than the shrieks they had
heard before came to their ears.
There It is again" exclaimed Rory, with
trembling lips. Can ye no hear it, squireg"
ITO be sure I csB," responded the SQUIRE
stouty; and I'm going to see what it is. Come
along"
The dis, spce between the doughty squire and
bis followers increased as he went on, while the
| shrleks grew stronger with each forward step
When about the middle OF the ascent he saw
the ghost. IL was, as the men had reported
white shapeless thing rolling upon the ground
and from 1t undoubtedly cam the piercing cries
which had proved so alarming.
Going straight up to the thing, the squire
touched it with his foot, then bent down to feel
II with his hand, and then burst out into a roar
Of laughter that at frat startled the three farm
ers almost as much as the ghosts snrieks
Come here you foolsi'' he shouted Come
and see Whist your ghost is"
In q hesitating way they drew near and exam
ined the cause Of their alfri xht l. was a white
| meal bag containing TWO very lively young pigs,
which had IN some way fallol off farmer s
wagon into the middle of the road there 10

According TO our Washington dispatches
/ yesterday the President gave the commit
/ tee Of Savannahians, who called oil him on
/ Friday and invited him to visit this city
thi. winter. a very cordial reception. he
neither accepted nor declined the invitation,
but what he said left the impression that be
would accept IL
Senator COlquitt, who accompanied the
committee TO the white house. thinks the
President is pleased with the invitation, and
that he will make a special effort to visit
Savannah. II he should come he would re-
ceive a very cordial welcoms. He would
find that Savannah knows how to entertain
the President.
And his coming would greatly assist Sa-
vaansh's deep water project. It would call
the attention Of congress 70 it so conspicu-
ously that that body could not avoid exam
lining into the merits Of it. Such an examine
ton would result In giving US what we
want.
Savannah has become q port OF such i'm
portance that congress has no reasonable
excuse for refusing to furnish promptly tn g
means for giving her a deeper channel 70
the sea She has q channel now that 40
comodates vessels drawing % feet
Of water. On the bar. at the month Of her
harbor. she has at high tide 20 feet
OF water and she must have that depth all
the way TO her wharves.
The little pamphlet entitled, "a plea In
behalf Of the south and west for deep water
at Savannah" prepared by Capt. Carter.
engineer in charge Of the harbor improve
ment, should be placed in the hands of
every member Of congress. Il is full of
facts and arguments in behalf of the 90
foot improvement, and If congressman give
it careful perusal they will feel it their
duty to grant Savannah what she wants
and is entitled to. He points out that when
the United States engineer department re-
sumed charge Of the improvement
of the harbor IN 1874 the usual high
water draught Of vessels to the
city was only about 14.5. The result Of the
improvements since that time is a channel
having depth OF % feet all the way from
the city's wharves to the sea. To get the
additional feet proposed it will not cost
great deal of money, provided the improve
ment is carried on continuously.
In 1874 Savannah's commerce did not ex-
coed s75.0O0,0OO in value, but in 1890 it
reached the enormous value Of $153, 900 600.
Give her channel OF 26 feet in her harbor
and the value of her commercs will quickly
amount TO twice S153, 900. 600. Deeper water
is we'll worth working for. II means un-
bounded prosperity for Savannah.

The Case OF DR.. BrinCs.

It may be accepted as certain that the
action of the New York presbytery in dis
missing the charges against DR.. Briggs
without trial, does not put an end to the
case by any means. There are men in the
Presbyterian church who are not afraid OF
creating breaches and factions in the church
by forcing the issues raised by Dr. Briggs
to settlement. There will not be peace
and quiet in the church until these Issues
are satisfactorily disposed Of.
The grounds on which the presby terry dis
missed the charges are that the peace and
quiet of the church are desired and because
DR.. Briggs expressed his loyalty to the
church and the Westminster standards and
disclaimed the interpretations placed upon
some Of his worda
But DR.. Briggs has recanted nothing. He
stands by his inaugural address, out of
which grew all the trouble. 1t is even an
nounced that no purposes to publish another
edition of the address.
The prosecuting committee Of the presby-
terry purposes TO appeal to the synod. The
questions which the synod will have to de-
eide, however, are not whether Or. Briggs
is guilty OF heresy, but whether the pros
ecuting committee has the right to appeal
to the synod, and whether the reasons given
by the presbytery for Diminishing the case
are sufficient The synod does not
meet until next year. and. whatever
its decision may be, an appeal
is pretty certain to be taken TO the general
assembly, which does not meet until 1898.
If the synod aud general assembly, or the
general assembly alone. should decide that
the presbytery had no right to dismiss the
case without trial, new charges would be
made out by the prosecuting committee
and trial before the presbytery would De
had.
1t is apparent that the Briggs case may
drag along for number of years, even
though trial never takes place And if
there should be trial a final decision would
not likely be reached under five years.
In view of the fact that the general as
ssmbly this year at DstroIt refused to con-
firm the transfer Of DR.. Briggs from one
professorsbip to another in the Union
Theological Seminary, thus condemning the
doctrines he teaches, it is probable that that
body will uphold the prosecuting COM
mittee. That would force the presbytery
TO hear and pass upon the charges against
DR.. Briggs. When heresy case is once
instituted it seems to be a difficult matter
to get rid oft.
