Want 20 be Christians.
CINCINNATI, o., March 3.-A rellg-
iOuS revival Of unusual features had its
elimination yesterday in services at
Music Hall, morning, afternoon and
night, at which that great structure
was each time filled TO overlooking.
Business houses all over the city, TO the
number of 5000, were closed yesterday
during the hours OF service at the Music
Hail.
The movement was arranged for early
last fall, and the plans suggested by the
evangelist, Rev. b. Fay Mills. These
we.e very methOdical, involving the
disIricting the city with preliminary
york in each district.
When Rev Mr.. Mills came, over a
month ago, he found the field prepared.
His plan was to first hold union meet
ing in the largest church in one Of the
districts, excluding from it persons not
living in that district. Then do the
same in other districts, and finally unite
the whole city in closing meetings al
Music Hall.
The result has been crowded houses
az almost all the meetings. Mr.. Mills
was assisted for two weeks or more by
Rev. DR.. Chapman, of Philadelphia.
The number OF persons who have at
these meetings Sifnitied desire to be-
come christians, is now reported at over
1000. The meetings close on Sunday
next.

A Wholesale Horse Dealer.

On October 18th, man who gave his
name as Club, went to Hagerstown, hir-
ed horse and buggy from livery-man
and drove to Front Royal, Va There
he traded the Hagerstown horse for am
other, then drove to Alexandria and sold
it. On November 9Th he went to Rock
vile, Md, hired team and brought it
to this city and sold the horse to Peter
Blake. While in Martinsgurg he visited
the clothing house of Tompson & Tab
Ter and rugged himself up in a new suit
of clothes. His next deal in horseflese
was in Charlestown, w. Va, where he
stole a horse and buggy from Mr.. Hunt
and bringing it to Martinsburg, tried
to sell it to Thompson and Tabler. He
said he had bought the horse for 500
but would like to sell it for 1856, as he
wanted to make some money on the
transaction. The horse was worth
about $780, He traded the buggy and
harness to Blake for four days hire and
small sum of money.
By this time the city authorities were
on to him and last night Sheriff Miller,
Samuel Freeze and Peter Blake called
on him in his room at the Continental
Hotel, invited him to leave comforts
able bed, relieved him of his money and
several revolvers and escorted Mr.. Club
to an iron>bound cell in the new county

Will Not be Missed.

The defeat of the party in power gen.
orally has one good effect. 1t softens
that air of proprietorship in tn Govern
men assumed by many minor officials
itnd chiefs of divisions.
Just after landslide one, no matter
what his politics, is pretty certain to
get courteous and considerable treatment
where before he was the recipient of in
science and intolerance. The Depart>
ment barnacles get off their high horses
after political revolt. Those who have
been the most obsequious in their to-
adyism to their superiors certainly grow
cool after the election figures tell them
hat their present chief will soon give
place to a man of another political
faith.
After party defeat, the official lick
spittles gradually cease the burning of
license under their chiefs nose; they
discontinue the daily practice of going
down on their knees before their super
iors; by degrees they cease their syco-
phantic gable, and by the time the 4th
of March comes around and the new ad-
nlinistration gets here, they are ready
II make affidavit that they have
looked and hoped for a change all the
time.
There are some such men in all the de-
partments. When fortified in a place of
minor authority they are, as a rule, as
iiltolerant and cruel in their treatment
of the clerks who are unfortunate enough.
to be compelled to serve under them as
they are fawning and cringing to the
head of the department. There should
be no law that will give to creatures of
this kind a life tenure of Office. The
country can get along very well without
chem.

Couldn't Stand his Politis.

The Lexington correspondent of the
Richmond Times writes his paper on
Friday of what he calls q little es-
capade at the Rockbridge Baths, in
this country, on election day. A we'll
TODD young farmer had gathered unto
himself much of this worlds goods, and
was to wed next month one of the
neighborhood's most popular bellies. The
father, happening at the polls when the
handsome groom elect deposited his
vote, ascertained that it was for Har
rison. He took that young man aside
and informed him ''that the Republican
idea of mixed schools. Force bills and
high tariff did not suit his blood, but he
could drive over and see the girl abou
it," The old man had not misplaced
his confidence, for the girl. lone of the
