Miss Canston did the only thing that a
young lady in her state OF mind could

to their friends that marriage was GER

brought her aunt 10 hear him, and be-
tween them they fancied him quite de-
cided TO marry Sophia. He asked her
many times If she would or could marry
him, land if he should, indeed marry
her" He went through with the mar
riage ceremony of the Church Of England,
for the benefit of imaginary couples who
stood at his bedside
After his recovery Wesley's friends
came 10 congratulate him on his engage
ment. But ever since his miraculous res
cue from fire in his childhood he had
been convinced that he had been singled
out by his maker for some special pur-
pose, and now here he was prostrating
himself before an earthly idol and for
getting his mission.
Alarmed for his soul he rushed TO the
bishop and the Moravian missionaries for
advice. They had the same hard, un-
relenting convictions which tormented
Wesley, and they advised him to give up
his idol and turn to his God. Wesley
knew not what TO do. He wandered in
the forests praying aloud for light as to

blooming grape vines, and shielded by
the long gray moss from any living eye,
sought wisdom and comfort.
That night he asked advice a second
time of the elder.
1--WE have considered your case said
the bishop. 'Will you abide by our de-
cision?"

Then the bishop said 1--WE advise you
to proceed no further in this matter"

the end.
Poor Sophia was heartbrollen. Her rel
atites were incensed- and compelled fer

begged Wesley to intercede in her behalf
Even after she was married she wrote
TO Wesley, and cast pitiful glances at
him until in his desperation one day he
forbade her to attend Holy Communion.
He explained this afterwards on tech
meal grounds, but the tide had turned
and the people of Georgia were against
him. A charge of Islander was instituted,
but the assailants. knowing that they
had small chance of success, delayed the
trial from week TO week until life in Geor-
gia became unbearable. He made ar
rangements to leave ,he colony. But even
in this the Canstons thw1rted him.
He was forbidden to leave the prov
ince.
He never went out that Sophia did not
pass and repass him several times, and
often she was known to look i'm upon him
when he was at prayer in his own house.
During all these trials he continued to
conduct his parish as usual, although
he was a sort of prisoner at large. At
six o'clock one evening the little flock
gathered in the church for prayers. Wes-
ley led as usual Delamotte was there
with the friends who still remained loyal.
After the service Wesley was seen 10

That wasn't nice. After this they would
take their product to a market where
they could get waited on; Elburn was
not so far away, and Elburn had just as
pretty calicoes as Kaneville and paid
just as good prices for eggs. too.
Then the bewildered postmaster got
mad. He sat down and wrote to Wash
ington that he did not propose to handle
twenty thousand letters a day on $3.50 a
year, that he wasn't in Kaneville for the
sake of the postmastership and that his

chain would produce u2.1g. Ii. ogs. $50, o96,-
eD3. $50 letters without the MULTIPLICATION Of
stamps enclosed, but as the chain has no
doubt been broken many times, the world
will not have to be repopulated 10 sup
ply the demand.
Owing TO the published statements that
the stamps are worthless, and the ma
tural indignation Of the Kaneville post
master at the uselessness of his heavy
labors, the Postmaster-General has been
obliged TO make an investigation OF the
kaneville postoffice Some days ago an
inspector arrived and discovered that not
only was the mail careless ly handled but
that mail clerks along the route had been
defacing some letters and destroying
others. He stated that he had obtained
enough proof to cost seyerll clerks their
position and TO put one or two in the peni-
Tertiary.
Several Of Miss Browns letters referred
TO enclosures of five-dollar bills, but the
money was lost.
AS TO the cash value OF this avalanche
OF stamps. everything remains TO be seen.
One or two New York dealers have or
fered $50 a million for the unsorted
stamps without inspection. and Mettie
reports an offer from Chicago firm or
800 per million. Whatever sum may be
realized the folly and waste OF such
means of money raising Is obvious from
a. simple calculation. one hundred dol
lars is ten thousand cents, which sum VIII

cording to the chain agreement, $1,000

would cost the donors 5000 to confer 500
