Mr. Webb on Religious Development In

This subject opens a door into a wide domain

the most prominent ONES our fathers seemed to
think that they had discharged their religious
duties when they had conducted family worship
ana contributed their quota toward the support
OF the church. But how ifferent now; the largest
part OF Christian work is performed outside the
church.
only few years ago and the young were al
most ignored; there was little for their warm

Governor Fuller has INDICATED the wis
dom of the choice of the freemen of the
state. He has gone about his duties in a
quiet unassuming way, dsarming the pre-
JUDGES of a super-heated campaign, making
new friends and confirming the faith and
confidence of the old ones. In his meth
obs, business system and military precision
appear. Every thing he does is well done
and done in season, without fret or haste.
Over all is a clear Intelligence, good sense
and sound judgment. A digniied, affable
and popular chief magistrate is Governor

Good for the Country.
From the Springfield Union

The Tammany politicians are said to be
seriously disturbed by Mr. Cleyeland's ey-
ident fondness for the society of f. j..
Phelps of Vermont. Mr.. Phelps gave
general satisfaction as minister to England
under Mr.. Cleveland's administration, and
the machine men are afraid that he will
have more than his share of influence at
Washington after March 4, If their fears
are realized it will be a good thing for the
country, whatever it may be for the Tam
many gang.
