The heartburnings in parting from a pastor tor whom a half of the church has sincere love, and wbo believe that he was badly treated, will not be repaired in years, and the opinions of honest worldlings, who will judge between you, will never be changed ana some boy, whose sense of right has been violated in your wrong done to one he loved and respected, may rise up, as an Ingersoll, ont of the bosom of the Church, to be ber everlasting torment. More than all, good ministers are not iu number equal to the demand, and this contributes; from the inevitable movements of supply and demand, to make them restless; and this tendency resisted for the sake of inferior churches is sacrifice enough now, without adding to the irritatiou the sense of wrong in violated obligations. If any think the business of changing pastors is a pleasant little episode let them take the minutes of the assembly and see how many first and second class churches are now vacant, and let them write to those sessions for a chapter in their experience in fi ling thcso places. We have had four or fio in Philadelphia who have compassed sea and land to find pastors and are in despair, not because there are not plenty of preachers, but because men equal to the strain of such charges cauuot be found unemployed."

J. 147 party happening to look up, jumped to his feet with an exclamation of surprise, and pointing to a man coming quickly toward us, eried "By there's Jesse Underwood We all turned with curiosity to the new comer, whose deeds of daring had made biro notorious, lie was well dressed, somewhat fancifully it is true, as became a mountain outlaw. Thrown across his left arm was a Sharpe's rifle, the weapon at half cock, and his right hand resting lightly on the hammer. From a belt around his waist hung a pair of Colt's "navys." Jesse Underwood is about thirty five years of age, of slender build, weighs about one hundred and forty pounds, and is a little stooped in bis walk.

His face was clean shaven, except a heavy, black moustache, and from under the rim of his slouch hat keen, brown eyes glowered apprehensively about as though watching for an enemy. As he viewed tho party in front of the hotel, he recognized one of the gentlemen and smiled pleasantly. The gentleman returned his salutation and then introduced us in turn to the noted outlaw. The desperate man's manner was pleasant, and happening to notice the glances directed toward his rifle and pistols, he drew his coat about him so as to cover the latter, and apologized for being obliged to carry such a walking stick," patting the rifle with his hand, as though he loved the weapon and felt seeuro when it was near him. He remained some time iu conversation and then left the town to return to his mountain borne.

holbkook's death. Theparty which shot George Lewis Underwood, two years ago. was led by Squire V. Holhrook, and Jesse Underwood swore that he vwuilil kill him the first time they met. On Friday, September 5, Holhrook, in company withjiis son, ventured in the neighborhood of "Fort Underwood tho mountain stronghold of his desperate enemy.

Suddenly, as be was riding along the road, a puff of smoke rose from the bushes on the roadside. There was a flash, a shary report, and he fell dead from his saddle. The son jumped from his horse and hastened to his father's assistance. He was thus engaged when a rustling among the undergrowth near by caused him to look in that direction. The faeo of Jesse Underwood peered at him from among the leaves, remained for a moment, and then, as though assured that his ouemy was dead, wiih dre.w aud disappeared in the forest.

When the news reached the friends of Holhrook that he had been killeJ, a party immediately started out to retaliate. All that night they hunted about the homo of the Underwoods, and just as the sun was rising discovered William Underwood walking toward where they were concealed. When he came nearer a volley from the rifles of the avenging party awoke echo upon echo among tho mountains, and another of the hated name fell dead. Learning that the war had begun again, I procured a horse and rode out to Fort Underwood," to gather what information was procurable. A short distance from the fort 1 came upon a body of armed men under a tree near the road, examining the body of he dead man.

Dismounting, 1 joined them. The rifle ball had passed entirely through the body, and lodged in tiie bark of a tree near by. William Underwood was considered the best of the family, aud has never taken any part in tho feud. Among tho party gathered about tho body were the father of the murdered man an old white headed man and Jesse Underwood. Recognizing your correspondent, Jesso come forward and entered into conversation: The cowards," he cried, under his breath, pointing toward the dead body of iiis brother, to shoot down a man who never did anybody anv harm.

Why, sir, Billy was always for peace, and now that he is dead, I swear, by the eternal God, to avenge him Amen cried the old mail, who had approached us. "We'll kill the last one of 'cm or hunt Ihem from the State." 1 spout several days in tho neighborhood, and talked freely both parties. One of tho Holhrook partv told me that they were organizing for the field, and that the Underwoods were doing the same. We propose now to fight it out," bo Paid, in conclusion, until one side or tho other leaves the country." There is some talk of appealing again tolho Governor for trooos, but many people are of the opinion that, it would be a blessing to allow the Underwoods and their enemies to proceed with How BIunT Colorado Goveraor Deposed a Troublesome Chief From the DeDver Tribune. Governor McCook is the man who caused Colo row's deposition as a chief.

During his administration Colorow and a band of Utes came to this city and camped on the outskirts. One day the chief sent word that he wanted a new McCook dispatched an agent to see in what condition Colorow's tent was, and the report was that he did not need a new tent, and McCook accordingly refused him. In the afteruoou, while the Governor was in his office, Colorow came in half druuk, with a revolver in his hand, aud came over where McCook was writing aud sat down. Tho Governor took iu the situation at a glance, hut did not look un. McCook, liar!" said Colorow.

The Governor went on writiug. "McCook, liar!" repeated the chief. Still McCook continued with his work. McCook, (i liar," said Colorow, reaching a climax. Nevertheless McCook wonld not look at him.

By this time Colorow had concluded that there was no fight iu the Governor, and allowed the hand containing the revolver to drop to his side. The move was a fatal one. Ill an instant McCook soized his wrist, knocked the weapon away from him, and, catching the astonished Indiau by the ueck, kicked him down stairs and out into the street, where there were a number of Utes standing about. With great tact McCook pointed to the prostrate aud humiliated form of Colorow, and turning to the Utes said No man to lead braves. Colorow an old woman.

Get a man for a chief." Then turning on his heel he walked up stairs. The next day the mortified Utes deposed Colorow. Daughter on the Indians, Trom a Published Letter.

Of the leading stocks tlie strongest was Pennsylvania, although there were others not no much exposed to hshmiiU that eured a larger advance. Jt is safe to calculate that tho increase in earning for this road during the current fiscal rear will amount to half a million of dollars, and the heavier outlay has gone to the permanent improvement of tlie property of the stockholders. Even at the ruling figures there is a con sideruhte diderence between JU 4 and 40, at which Lehigh Valley is selling, both being considered good for 4 per cent, per annum.

THE DARK AND BLOODY GROUND A Sketch of the Men Who Have Terrorized Half a State.

Special Correspondence of The Timks. Mokehead, Rowan October 7. It is known that ilurinj; the war the Uniier wood family had pretty much their owu way in the neighborhood of Olive Hill, Carter county, Kentucky. They were a larse family. All the boys were adepts of the rifle, and they were quick to auger.

Carter county is tuiuly settled its physical features are rough and mountainous, and to find desperate men within her borders is no exceptional thine. The Underwoods had neighbors equally as desperate and law defying as themselves, and the daring deeds of tho former no doubt excited the jealous envy of the latter. Alfred Underwood, the oldest of the boys, became involved in a personal difficulty, killed liis man," and the climato of Kentucky ceasing to bo healthy for him, he followed Greeley's advice aod went West. It has been reported several times that he was dead, had been killed, but from reliable information gained in tho very heart of the outlaw's camp I feel pretty confident in asserting that Alfred Underwood is slill alive, still a dangerous shot with a rifle, and again roaming among the hills and mountains of Carter and Rowan counties. Alfred Underwood had not long left Kentucky when his next oldest brother, Jesse, outlawed himself.

was in the summer of 1S7, and old John lloliiuson's circus was making a tour through Kentucky. The circus people pitched their great tent in Booth county, which adjoins Carter, and the country for miles around was drained of its inhabitants. Old and young went to the "show," and Jesse Underwood among tho number. A great deal of whisky was drank, and lie no doubt consumed his share. Becoming involved in a bar room tight, he drew his revolver and fired, killing a young man named Truiubo.

lie has always denied that this killing was intentional, as he bore no ill will toward Truiubo, and claims that be fired at another man. In the excitement young Underwood escaped from the town and went back to Carter county. A largo posse took to the mountains to hunt him down, but he always evaded them. Finally, when the hue and cry quieted down a little, ho managed to slip out of the State and located in the interior of Iowa, "Whore ho continued for several years. THE CAP.TEK WAIi.

In tho winter of 1877 two men, John R. Tobor and John Martin, were arrested by the city marshal of Maysvillo, Kentucky, between that place and Cincinnati, charged with horae steal iug. Tober had formerly been a well to do man and much respected. His father left him a handsome properly when he died and the son himself as a merchant in Ililisboro, Kentucky. For a t'mo ho did Well and won the respect and confidence of tho people.

But a passion for gambling soon swallowed up his means, and to procure more money he several times transgressed tho hounds of law. lu 1870 ho left. Ilillshoro and settled in this place. Ho speedily made friends, and was elected Clerk of the Circuit Court, which office enabled him to live in comfort. Just before election, in 1874, it Was found that the records of the court been mutilated, it is claimed to further the interests of the present Judtie of the Court of Appeals, who was then a candidate for tho State Senate.

Toher, being custodian of the records, was charged with the mutilation, and not being able to disprove the charge, he was defeated. Ke remained iu Morohead sometime afier his retirement from tho county clerk's office, but became involved in a difficulty of ft personal chnriicter with James Corey, and was compelled to flee. It was while lie was wandering about the country that the alleged crime of horsestealing was committed. His companion, John Martin, was at this time under indictment for killing a man named Blair, the brother of Martin's brother's wile, for which lie was afterwards acquitted. Tobcraud Martin had a bearing at JIaysvillo on the ciiarge of horse stealing, anil Wert) admitted to bail.

Peuding tho trial they wen to Carter county, rented a few acres of land from one of the Underwoods, ami commenced hard work to raise a crop. A few miles irom the home of tho Underwoods lived a family of small farmers named Stamper. One night, shortly alter Martin and Tuber bigan farming, the Stampers lost several ne horses, and at once accused Martin and Tober with ttieir theft. This the two men denied, aud no positive proof being found against them they were not ai res! ed. This, however, did not satisfy the and they notified the two men to leave the country, at the same time warning the Underwoods not to harbor them.

Toher left at mice, and it is said is now iu the West. Jlartin's wife was sick at tho time he received the notification and could not yet leave. He and his family were the guests of one of the Underwoods, who was a second timo notified to send John Martin away, the Stamper party promising to care for the sick wifo until she could be removed. These threatening notices alarmed the host, and he told Martin that he could no longer entertain him. George liowis Underwood, another of the family, then invited Martin to conic to his miisr, which Martin did.

Not long after a similar notico was served upon George Lewis Underwood. Ho disregarded tlie warning, and his life paid the forfeit. Ho was shot from ambush one dark the ball passing through his bowels aud making a hole in his side through which all his food has since passed, until his death a few weeks ago. Thou commenced the "Carter war." Elviu Underwood and John Martin "took to the bush." They were shortly joined by a party of friends and partisans, and two of the Stamper party were ambushed and killed. Then tho latter gathered about them their friends, and retaliated hy killing ono of the Underwood brothers and another mini who took sides with thorn.

Armed men arrayed themselves on either side, and that whole section of country was turrorized. The law abiding peoplu appealed to tho Governor for protection, anil a body of troops was sent to their assistance, who succeeded, finally, iu subduing the outlaws, dispersing them in every direction. Everything being quiet, Governor McCrcary ordored tho trootij homo. JESSE UNDERWOOD, During all the bloody conflict Jesse Underwood was in Iowa, but on learning tho condition of affairs, he hastened home to share tho fa'o of his kindred. Ho was in Carter county when tho troops were sent there, and did his share of the fighting.

When both parties were dispersed by the militia ho concluded that the feud was at an ond, and determined to returu to Iowa. He was passing through Lewis county, ou his way out of tho Klato, when he was pur Sued by a Sheriffs posje. A desperate conflict ensued. Many shols were exchanged, and Jesso Underwood was wounded iu several places. Hj returned tho fire and killed one of tho party named Jtugglr.s.

His enemies were too many for him, however, and before he could kill or wound more of the party, he was surrounded, disarmed Slid ecu rely tied. With their prisoner in charge the Shrriif and 'his party hastened to a magistrate lu have him examined ou the charge of killing Jviigglus. After hearing tho testimony the Court acquitted him on the ground that the pursuing party had no warrant, and tho killing was done In self defense. Ho was then tiilon to Until county tube tried fur killing young Trumho years Iml'oro. After an incarceration of several mouths in the jail at Owci.sville, ho luado his escape, and it was believed that lie had left tho ritate.

Not fo, however, llo roturned to the mountains uf his native county, and patiently awaited tho result of his brother George's wouiidn. In Juno Inst, Elyin Underwood, while at work in his cornfield, was shot by a concealed assassin and instantly killed. At tho time Jesse swore that if his other brother, Ooorge. should dio, lie would begin war of extermination mid not desist until tho last of his enemies wore dead or driven limn tho State On Saturday, August 23, George Lewis Underwood died, and on the following day ho was brought to the little cemetery about half a mile rein Mori hcad, to be laid to rest, lie had never left his bed sitie.o tho cruel shot struck him down, but in pain and agony lived on until death at last ended his sufferings, aud yet in the very spring time of life cut short 'his existence. All tho clan came to foe him laid away, except Alfred.

Jt was a solemn sceno. Thcso rough mountain peoplo have hearts, and tears, and sorrows, and their grief is strong, though undemonstrative. In silence they gathered round tho grave, and when tho first shovelful of earth fell with a dull thud upon tho colli they knelt upon the ground, and in voices that trembled with griof for the dead nrnu, swore to avenge his doath. Then they wont back to tho mountains, all but Jesse, who had expressed adesiro to come into the town. On being assured that he would not ke uioli'Ntod, he sulerud Morchead, and had an interview with one of the citizens, a lawyer named Stone.

It was a bright aud sunshiny day, and your correspondent was sitting in front ol the Corny House, busily engaged in conversation with several gontlutucn. Ono of the Religious Topics for Every One Discussed in Brief. SERMONS FOR THE HOME CIRCLE. Views of the Denominational Journals of the Day. The Baptist ministers of New York hare been discussing the much vexed question as to the propriety of advertising the subjects of their sermons.

Most of them speak strongly against the sensational method of this. Some of them denounce altogether the advertising of subjects. Others advocate informing the public what is to be preached about provided sensationalism is avoided. All agree in the advisability of putting down sensationalism at all hazards. The chief speaker the Rev.

Dr. Knapp admitted that in past timo he had been a transgressor in that he had advertised tho subjects of his sermons. But he intimated that he never would do it again. His essay took the ground that advertised subjects are not for the benefit of the regular congregations, but tend to draw outsiders and stragglers from other churches, lie cousiders advertising a temptation to announce fancy texts aud odd subjects, and to utilize the commonest trumpery of the day because of tho. attractive headlines it will allow.

Furthermore, he thinks that the newspaper men send their most sinful reporters when subjects are advertised, and that these wicked fullows make comments which arc not cither complimentary or truthful. The good or tho evil of advertising subjects for sermons depends largely on how it is done. The use of making an announcement through newspaper columns is to give people information. If those who are expected to come to hear the preaching are saii. lied without knowing in advance what the preacher will talk aliout.

it is well, and thero is no curiosity which need be gratified. But often it makes considerable difference. People have a great deal of curiosity nowadays and much of it is wholesome aud ought to be gratified. There are steady old chnreh goers who will ahvavs be in their pews, whatever is the subject. Some of these good people have contracted tho habit of going to sleep in church and observe it so faithfully that they can slumber as weii under one subject as another.

Advertising is thrown awayonstiih folks. But thero me many persons who are not regular church goers, who are often attracted by an advertisement. They sec something announced which strikes their fancy, and it decides the question in their minds whether to co or not. Thus many are brought to church who would otherwise stav away. It may bo said that these people ought to go to chinch from principle, and go to the nearest church wiihont regard to who is the preacher, or what he is to preach about.

This is nonsense. Most, clergymen have no objection to announcing from their pulpits what thev will preach on. This is only another form of advertising. There is no moral or ai thetieal diU'erence between using the pulpit as a bulletin board and having the notice put in type for newspaper columns. It is not to be denied that a sensational minister may mako himself and his sermon ridiculous by the style of his advertising.

'Thus with the pastor who advertised that ho would preach on "The llau Who Waxed Fat and Kicked." An empty head advertised as tlie subject ofhis sermon "The Devil's Meal is all Bran." Another's advertisement read: "A Man 'Vetting Out of a aud the people knew not whether tho sermon was to he about or Jonah, or Christopher Columbus. A preacher intending to preach on the liosurrcetion advertised as iiis subject: The Kin ply Tomb." It happened to bo the Sunday after the robbery of A. T. Stewart's grave, Hnd peoplo Went expecting to hear the preacher's views on that unsavory transaction. There are times when a minister ought to advertise, if he is going to preach a very special sermou.

A. voting man anil his intended bride wishing to avoid the gaze of their neighbors and friends on the Sunday occurring between the sending out of their cards and their wedding, hired a buggy and drove several miles intothecounlry to church. Imagino their astonished embarrassment to hear tho preacher announce for bis theme: "Thedutics of mothers." A St, Louis preacher advertised for young men who bad been victimized by gamblers. They turned out in largo force, and his church was full. A dull, hut learned man, in a cold and stylish ehureh in New York, advertised that lie would preach to young men.

The congregation, all told, numbered one hundred and fifly eight, and most of the male hear ers were either gray or bald. A New Jersey preacher advertised a sermon on "Tobacco." and had for ins congregation about a dozen women and two boys. In justice to the clergy it must lie said that tho number of those who bring themselves into contempt by advertising absurd and ridiculous subjects is small and rapidly diminishing. Not HS Halt ns We HXight lie. Thero are many good people who.

when they have nothing else in particular to worry over or to groan about, spend their surplus energy in howling that the world is growing worse. Sometimes they compare the world of to day with what it. was when they were children. Sometimes they go a step further hack and draw the comparison with the. good old days of their fathers or grandfathers.

Now, the fact is, that the world. is at least as good as it has ever been, and perhaps better. There is more life, more enlightenment, mornsomid morality and more real religion. As to education, we are far in advance of the attainments of our forefathers. Admit that a good deal of the enterprise of to day is flavored with badness, we still have enough that is both enterprising and commendable lo place us far above past generations.

We might bo bettor than we are. We might have fewer crimes In report. It would be delightful if every newspaper coiumu devoted to the chronicling of a crime, were occupied with tho storv of some good deed. We have not yet reached that happy stato of affairs. If tlie history of the day is more largely made np of tales of wickedness than we would like to have it, we may console ourselves hy reference to the history of past ages, which was nearly all made up of narrations of crime and casualty, and wo must ro member that iu former days, owing to the exceedingly meagre facilities for reporting and publishing, the public Were made acquainted with only a small proportion of tho crimes which were committed.

Had newspapers been published in the days of Cain, or Nimrod.or Nebuchadnezzcr, or Julius Caisar, or Nero, or Henry the VI their "police report" department would have crowded out all the editorials aud inoi of the advertisements. Kelerriug to the groauers over evil times, tho Christian Union says: "There is not a new crime in tlie calendar; politicians have not recently become dis honost, nor privato integrity spotted. Fifty years back bring us to the most bitter denunciations of nil this, and the most doleful coni parisonswith tlie good old times. This may only prove that wo are lower than weworo then hut mav i' not prove, instead, that lamentation was mistaken theu and is so now? On the other hand, if it is urged that the world is growing worse now, that is venturing into prophecy. Tho temporary effect of the tremendous and accumulating changes in tho last forty years must not be overlooked.

They have transformed the geographical distribution, the business methods, the domestic, life aud early all the conditions of civilized existence. We are not even horn the same men and women as those of IrllU even nature is changed in her relations to us, and only her visible aspect is as then. 80 we develop too rapidly and crudely hy over haste wo trip into commercial crises; we squander material resources, sink capital and subject every part of our natures to unwonted strains, Turn over a flat stone In the field and insects scatter iu disluib ance; if, in the providence of God, our Inteuser life and our discoveries of science and invention have let in light so fast as to dazzlo our ryot, what wonder that wo are temporarily confused and stumble into moral by paths? In time these new conditions will adjust themselves. Tho comparative faults of to day cannot be fairly tnea'ured without duly considering the toinpta tions of to day. And, even if we cannot see that tho world is growing better, reason unites with faith in denying this fact to be proof that it is really giowiug worse." An linearly Slut of Tiling.

The J'resbyterijxa draws a startling piotnr of tho condition ofaffairs In the denomination of which it is au organ. Beginning by stating that the outlook Indicates "Intense wordliness, rest lessnoss and unappeascd hunger," it continues to refresh its readers in this manner; We believe that the Church is In a transition state and that before two years one half of the present p.istors and stated supplies will oither havo changed places or bo half crazy to do so and a time of longing for change is a time of spiritual languishing and death. This tendency, so well marked, must he arrestod before we have healthy life, and we beg our churches to seek as quickly as possible to correct thcso grounds of complaint, that pastors may continue in their present relations. Three months without a pastor, even if yon got a bettor and cheaper one than you now havo, will not bo Itrorlier TSnyd ISounced. A sarcastic persou, who wished to avoid giving money to a Baptist Church, told tho pastor that he would subscribe liberally on one condition; namely, that all the new converts should 1)6 immersed iu boiling water.

The church wanted money badly, yet the pastor was obliged to refine the gift on the terms offered. But it seems as if the brethren were determined to give the Kev. Mr. Boyd, of St. Louis, the hottest kind of a hot water bath, ou the strength of practices which they consider irregular and heterodox.

Mr. Boyd is pastor of the Second Baptist Church. The 500.000 house of worship belonging to that society was burnt. Jews offered a synagogue The Baptists gratefully worshiped thero. Pastor Boyd happened to admit to the communion table an uuimmorsed clergyman of another denomination.

This made a hubbub. Then, when done using the synagogue, he courteously recognized the kindness of the good peoplo who had placed it at the disposal of the church. A joint service of praise to God wa9 held by jew and Gentile, Pastor Boyd and Kabbi Sonneschin both taking part. This made another hubbub. Then it became uccessary lor Pastor Btyd aud his people to declare unto all men their Baptist sentiments.

They did so, in so clear and forcible a manner ns to win the approbation of the leading papers of tho denomination. But in the Baptist Association to which Lr. Boyd belonged there were some midget souls who loathed to extend Christian fellowship to a brother who would commune with a Uuiversal ist and worship with a Jew. So they turned him out. By a vote of 27 to 17 they declared belief that Dr.

Boyd was unworthy of their Christian fellowship. It seems a high compliment to be turned out by such a lot of ecclesiastics. In view of the act we may ulter the eloquent petition of the Episcopal Litany: "From all blindness of heart; from pride, vain glory and hypocrisy from envy, hatred and malice, and all uucharitahlcncss, Good Lord deliver us." Theatre and Church. To some minds two institutions appear to be somewhat mixed, notably in the cam of the editors of the Epitropul Jieg'sUr. Wo read in their co'umns: "Theatres are maintained for the amusemcutof tho people, and in many caes churches art) managed so as to present somewhat, similar attractions.

The music is controlled and intended to satisfy those whoso tastes have been cultivated by ibo opera, and in large measure iu the same style of mu ic. The decorations aro such as are adapted to sat sly the same or similar tastes. Iu the pulpit there is mueh that is dramatic aud entertaining. Indeed, without this element theie can be but little popularity, and he who thought tint his vocation was fixed would find, aecoiding to Grant White, that he had an avocation, fro many of those who have pandered to this taste, for theatricals have exhausted themselves and been obliged fci iss the remainder of their days in rural lil'c, where the stage is less known and not so popular. When will we learn that tho Church is not intended merely to keep the minds of men occupied with serious subjects, but by the assistance of the Holy Spirit to produce devout affections, to enkindle longings after holiness, and to be tho means of conveying that grace without which men cannot, lead godly, righteous or sober lives." rtisliop l'eck as a Lodger.

A good story is told of Biohop Peck, of tho Methooist Episcopal Church "The Bi. hop is remarkable not only for mental, but also for physical weight, and ho is very witty withal. Not very long since he was stopping all night at the house of a friend. Abontr midnight the Bishop attempted to roll over, when down came the bed with a crash upon the floor. The gentleman of the house rushed up with a light and cried out: 'Bishop, what's 'Nothing at said the Bishop.

'You go down and tell your wife if 1 am not here in the morning to look for me in the The force of this story and of the Bishop's fall will be better appreciated when it is kmiwn that his weight is between aud 410 pounds, lie is as iolly ns he is heavy. When Inst at Chautauqua the eating house people furnished him with a napkin nine inches scpiare. As gravely as possible he tucked one corner of this bit of dry goods under his collar, allowing tho rest of it to go as far as it could towards covering his massive front. Tho brethren at the table pleasantly laughed, and the Bishop enjoyed the inn as much as any of them. Tho Maine Law of Xroliibitfon.

A correspondent of the Religions llcrnlj, who has boen taking observations in Portland, writes: "After walking up and down the streets of Maine's largest city for several days, and peering into its alleys and courts, we c.in aver that we have not seen a single person tho wore for liquor, or any indication that tho 'ardeut' is sold. Guests at the largest hotels, who order liquors to be brought to their rooms as in other places, are informed that their wishes cannot be gratified. Of course, there is a class whose thirst water will not quench, who bate the Hon. Neal Dow, the lather of the Maine law; but there is a larger class who a profoundly grateful to him for all h'S efforts in behalf of temperance, and the moral and material prosperity of the city and the State. Tho benefits of this law are su plainly seen that each political party keeps a plank iu its platform iu favor of prohibition." Christian I'l ogress in Japan.

In tho reccptiou of General Grant at Yokohama a son of Itev. Dr. Knox, of Klmira, now a missionary in the Mikado's empire, sees an illustration of tlie advance toward Christian civilization iu Japan, llo writes: "The streets were packed with poople, and I heard it frequently remarked that there had never becu such a crowd in Yokohama before. What a change a few years have made iu the ideas of the people Nineteen years ago a tanner was a moral and legal outcast in Japanese society. Even his murder could claim no redress.

Per contra, nineteen years ago the Mikado was a god and most piously veiled from tho eyes of the vulgar crowd. And yet last week tho man ho nineteen years ago was a tanner rodo in open view of tho crowd, with tho Mikado, who nineteen years ago was a god, while the Japanese army marched by, paying them both equal honors," Good News About tlie Hunday School TsooKs Tho Advance says "We havo lately had occasion to examine with considerable care collections of Sunday school books. S01110 of tho current slap dash accusations brought againt the quality of the hooks in Suuriay school libraries may have a grain of truth iu them. iino are silly some are stupid. Some others aro bad, because they present to the childish thought mistaken ideas of lito.

mistaken conceptions of Christian character and religioui duty. But, on tho whole, it is our clear conviction that this department of popular litcraturo, aud it is one of the greatest importance, is last improving. Those less suitable are being silted out and many better ones aro being written," This is cheering. No department of religious literature has fallen into as careless bauds as that of supplying the Sunday school library shelves. The j'oor Indian.

Tho Catholic Mirror bewails the way in which tho Utes and other Aborigines havo been imposed upon, and says: "If the Indians were rightly treated they would live in peace with all their neighbors, and thero would he uo occasion lor tho presence of.soldiers on the frontier. Tills is proved year after year at the agencies entrusted to Catholics, There tho red men do not put ou war piaut. Thoro thoy are honestly dealt with. There the Blackgown and tho Sister aro at work, and are beloved and obeyed. There the civilizing iufliieuce of religion is exerted and the power of the Church to change savages into saints is manifested.

Thero ami only there is the Indian turned from his wild ways and mado gentle and iudustiious," Trusting anil Working. It is related that tho celebrated Welsh preacher, Christmas Kvaui, was once discussing the potato question with his thrifty, diligent wife, and perhaps In a playful, but' still iu a characteristic Way, said to her: Catharine, you never mind tho potatoes; put your trust In Provldcnro, and nil will ho well," "I toll you what we'll do, Christinas," replied Catharine; yon go and sit down on tho top of Moolly Gest, waiting for Provldonco, and I'll go and lion the potatoes; and we shall see lo which of us Providence will couio first Shares sold: Reading, Pennsylvania, 21.114; Lehigh Navigation, 3.7'iO; llestonville, 2.405 Northern Central, 1.950; Philadelphia and Erie, 1.925: Northern Pacific preferred, 1512 Pittsburg, Titus ville and Buffalo, 1.300; Northern Pacific common, Orion Silver Mining Company. 1,330 Argent Mining Company, 1.250; People's Passenger Railway, Lehigh Catawissa preferred. 200; Catuwissa new preferred, 100; Camden and Atlantic preferred, 100; St. Paul and Duluth.

Chunky. My KsTKhUhu Fkikm: I Iinve not forgotten rohnbly never hIimU I lie very impressive oeciinion when yourself and iriends vim led me on a tnrtuiuon iwo years ato.

In all it lin.s been your purpose lo Klrenjrthon niy reliance on (J ml. 1 hhi mticli indebted to Hie sood Clnistinn pea pie of the country for llie.ir constant prayers and consolations; and to no one of them more than yourself.

The purposes of I bo Almighty are perieet and numt prevail, though we erring mortal may fail lo perceive liein iu advance. We hoped for a hanpy termination of this terrible war long before tin; but God know best and lias ruled otherwise. Wo Miall yet ncknowledn His wisdom and our own error therein. Meanwhile we must work earnestly in the bent light He tf ivew lit. trust in that ho working Mill eonduces to the threat end He ordain.

Surely He intends some great good to follow thin mighty convulsion, which no mortal could make and no mortal could May, Your people, the Friends, have bad and are having a very jrreat Irial. On principle and inith opposed to both war and oppression, they can only practically opoom oppression by war. Jti this baid dilemma some have chosen one horn and some the oilier. For those appealing to me on conscientious grounds 1 have done and shall do the best I could and can, in my own conscience, under my oath to tho law. That you believe thin I doubt not, mid believing it I thai I still receive, for my country and myself, your earnest prayers to our Father in Heaven.

Your sincere Iriend, A. Lincoln. SPORTING NOTES. There is a fine entry of trotters for tho four days' racing at Jieluiont. It is reporied that George ShttfTer, who played this season with tho Chicago), goeH over lo the Clevelamls lor 10.
