There Is nothing as yet to Interfere with navigation. but there Is a chance ot a sudden severe cold snelL and a freeze no. The regular winter ateamera are lust taking plaeea on their routes. Beside the line out of Milwaukee to Grand Haven, the Goodrich Company will run several steamers between Milwaukee and Ludington. and also a steamer out of Chicago connecting with the two lines out of Milwaukee, and touching at various west ana east shore ports.

MINISTERS' MEETINGS. A Discussion ef the Effects ef Peraleloas Literature by the Methodists. Aa Interesting Paper an tha Subject by tha A tt. Panes Other Meetings. TBI MBTHOL.ISTS.

Rev. The Methodist ministers met in regular weekly session yesterday forenoon la the conference room. No. 57 Washington street. The attend ance was not large at the opening, but the room filled as the session pr greased.

The Bev. Youker conducted the devotional exercises. The Bev. Dr. Willing presided, the Bev.

P. Marsh. Score tarr. The Bov. A Yeuker called the attention of tha preachers to the marring 3 system, a the rnles which ministera had to follow in making oat blanks, and returning them in proper shape to ihu Viiinrv merle.

It waa a humbus. anyway The Kef. Mr. MoCheaney (interrupting) Ton don't mean that marriage is a humbug. Brother Xouker? Laughter.

On motion, a committee, consisting or the R.i A. Yonker and Or. Williamson, was euoaan to look into the subject, and report to the meeting nTt Monday. The Bev. A.

W. Patten, of the Wabash Avenue Cburon. then read 'The effects of pernicious liraraiure. eaoeoiallv amona- roair Deoule. and the remedies to be applied.

Plutarch it waa who uirl ihut booka anawered nls ouevtions. related the events ot past ages, revealed secrete, and mill men how to live, and aome how to die. A reader insensibly eaugbt the spirit and bias of nix author ae naturally aa one eautrnt tne gait 01 a fellow traveler. Glbbou did not in his writings ooeuly oppose Christianity so uiueb as tacitly iirnnre ita claims, wnicn iei inomas arnotu to express the hope that some one would go over tn aunie neia ana view it irom a wnnsuan standpoint. Bancroft and HiJdreth showed their phUoeoDbr in their worka.

Holmes hia kBanneoa. Carlrle bis everlasting no. Thoreau bis cynicism. Hawthorne his aubtliitr Maedonald his sweetnesa, and so all the way tbrouah. There waa aa especially great evil at the Breaent time shown in the damaging novels and novelettes that were eattereu everywhere nowadays.

They were oalled brilliant by aome. hut tneir brilliancy was tbat ot the rotten log. tha DiitrHaeHnt eureass. tbat shines as It decays. a.nd tha more DhoftDhoroseent light there is the greater the offenaiveness.

The influence of sen- ilffht literature on the young mind was damauing: the young naturally imitated what that read, aa a number ot instances showed. quoted from the daily papers, of boys and girls leaving their homes and aeeklng abroad to follow the examulea aet by the bovas that came Into their Hindi. Jesae Pomeroy. the Hoetoa boy- murderer, confessed, to James T. Fields -that be had read sixty dime novels.

Governor Bice, in a.n ajlrirttaa before the Y. M. A of Boston. called attention to this subject, and spoke against the Illustrated literary outrages that are scattered broadcast over the land. Mr.

Patten gave nmM to Anothonr UOffl. stock's work, whictt have been published in Thi Inter Ockajc. and the essayist proceeded to con sider tne Influence of the dally papers. Daily papers were no doubt a great bieeaing to iuiiiinunn in many wars. But tt was true that.

on the other hand, there was muen In them which tended to eorrupt and debase society. There was. first, the flippancy with wnlch nearly every sop- bu. trutniL leavins tha impression that thar noLhlns really serious, that life is one huge joke. There seemed to be no reaped for what was "pure and reversal and boly in many of the daily ehesia.

A trifling tone ran through everything. Defalcations, national sins. murura. auleides. seductions, ail It are pre.

sented with a smirk, a grimace, aad a dig In the rlt. aa if the horrid spectacle ot a world's wars and crimes were matter ot amusement. Tnen there were the diaguauug details of Crimea. xnr was far too mueh attention given to a murderer. the trial, the ways and means ot crime, tne life of the prisoner ia hia cell, the hanging, every atutude.

every nrteranna. nntil hanging seemed to be a martyr dom, and murder is giorthed. It is the same wita suicide, abortion, the sooial evil, seduotion. ev erv detail drawn out until the effect is to pollute and it eouid not be otherwise. The citizens ot Hyde Park nave recently had rendered in their tavor a decision by the Supreme Court that taey have a risht to suppress tae factories aa a nul sance causing suob vile odors in their neighbor hood.

And can society have no redress when mnral atench oetvades the community by (he daily press? The plea I that the people demand iwm: but this vile stun is not newa. Moral sew erage was not news la any sense ot the word. Attention was called to the relative amount ot space given to crime In the papers. The Sunday papers professed to be religious to some extent, but this was simply to gain favor. The Quantity of religion to other matter waa about a thimbleful to a bogshead.

They printed narmona. also, but a low taste passed by tae eer mous and devoured the sensations so elabor ately recited. Good books had a most aeaitnful infliianea on the mind: they were like good com panionanip on the-lile. It was suggested: First. that there be a strict censorship ol all books and papers tbat go into the homes.

Beoond. that judicious committees be enosen la the eburohes to scrutinize every book offered for SunJay school libraries. Third, tbat the voice ef the miinic should aid In striving to elevate the tone of reading in the euoren. and in suggesting kimk. of (indoD ud oihrn aji suitable for vounar people.

Fourth, that cheap reauing and good muiinir should be enfloursured. Be marks 01 the subject were made by the Rev Dr. Wiillug, the iter. a. Mcuoebney, tne nev, P.

The influences were generally of rather unfavorable tenor, both foreign and domestic markets being quoted easier, while the receipts were quite liberal, and considerably in excess of the shipments, The movement was mainly on local speculative aeeount, operators being favored with vary few outside orders, and shippers were doing very little in the way of buying, save of tbe lower grades. The flour market was again characterised by dullness, and there was ao Change in values.

Local dealers are generally well supplied, aad aoippers do not show any disposition to bur. Winter wheat was in moderate demand and quite firm. During the greater part of tbe session the market for spring wheat wss very quiet, although in the aggregate a fair business was transacted.
