Parsons, of Muncy, is expected to preach in the Evanjolical Lutheran Charob, on next Sabbath morning at 11 o’clock, and in the evening at 7 o’clock. By reference to the proceedings of tho Prohibi tory Law meeting published in another column, it will be seen that Mr. Koons has boon nominated for Assembly by tho Prohibitory men, in place of Mr. Moser, who declined the nomination. The Whig ticket for Assembly is Messrs. Koons and Cathoart; the Prohibitory ticket for Assembly is Messrs. Colhcarl and Koons! No Whig move ment in all Ibis, eh? Tho nomination of Mr. Koons, we understand, was unanimous, ho iiaving answered the interrogatories of the Temperance Committee to their entire satisfaction. A GOOD SUGGESTION. Ab the friends of a Prohibitory Liquor law, os welt as those opposed to sucli law, appear to bo anxious that (ho question should bo submitted to a vole of the I people, would it do! bo well for the people of the different counties to vote on the question at the I coming election, la order that the expression of their opinion might be a guide for the action of their rop-1 Xeionlativcs 7 Wc hove hoard it favorably spoken' of here, by ell parlies, and wo understood the editor of the Herald to say that ho would bo satisfied with snob an arrangement, and would bo willing to print (iokets for the Whig parly to vote fur or against Iho proposed liquor law. The suggestion ally made and started in on another •object, stifl bo noted on there at Iho next dec rrSsA lfa« tickets in this county ofboth political parties bo printed, somo headed Prohibition,” and others "Against Prohibition,” la order (hat each voter may express bioßontimonls on this subject, and ( we could thus readily gel at the real sentiments of , the people. There is much said about the people of this county being for or against the measure —lot (ht people speak far themselves. That would bo the easiest and most satisfactory way of ascertaining what their sentiments really are, and wo would then hear no more loose opinions uttered in iho absence ofsll accurate information. The Harrisburg Tele-. graph on this subject says : “There is but one way in which such a result can bo avoided. It is that all parlies agree to have the question of prohibition tested ol the ensuing election, which could readily bs done by the sending out ot boxes, and the distribution of ballots “For Prohibi* bUioa" "Against Prohibition” to bo voted the result of which-to bo considered instructing Ibo Repreeon lalivts who may bo elected. If snob a proposition is carried out, wo ogroo to (p in for the measure, that the question may bo sot at rest, so far as our county is concerned. A similar arrangement has been entered into by both parties in Union county, on tho question of the division of •Aid county,aud is easy to bo carried out.” X6o 1110 Grande Frontier, The rumor* of ill-feeling existing along; (Ijo Rio Grande frontier are not cooflrmcd by representations 1 from woll'informed eourccs.

Bowo, Ul* membsr of COngrow, ne llio oendidslo for that part/ for Governor. % If anything wore wanting to convince Iho Domoo. racy of this county that tho agitation of the Tom- pcranco question is a Whig movement, tho article in last week’s Herald of this place, and tho nomina tion, by tho Temperance men, of Messrs. Catiicart and Koons, for Assembly, Is conclusive evidence of | that fact. Wo had tho best evidence for tho assertion 1 ourself, in tbo declarations of tho loading Whig journals of the country, who aro claiming tho adop tion of the Maine law, tho restriction of slavery, and the repeal of tho Fugitive Slave law, as the measures which aro to constitute tho new Whig platform —tho old one of National Bank, high tariffs, &0., having been knocked to pieces. Unless 4ho Herald denies tho allegations of the loading journals of its own parly, such is indubitably the fact. Tho sonlimonla of these Whig journals wo quoted in our article two weeks sinco. But, what is still moro conclusive, is Uio fuel that whenever any now Tangled idea gets afloat, about which the Democrats become divided, the Whigs im • mediately fun the ambers oTdiscord, join in with the disaffected, and endeavor to defeat and disorganize the Democratic party. Such has been the uniform practice of that parly in this country. Look at the Anti. Masonic movement, at Lho Native American organization, and every body knows that the Whigs coali io who wore engaged in these Don ipts of boating the air and fight* joined with them in dividing the offices, whenever ihoy could, by uniting lo defeat the democracy at an election. Such is now the idea of the Whigs as lo the temperance movement. Wher ever they have had the opportunity they have used it to defeat the Democratic party. They did so in Maine, where they defeated the Democratic nominee for Governor at the last Gubernatorial election, and will moat likely again elect the Whig candidate' there being two Democratic candidates in the field, and the party divided. ••But," says the //era/J,“lho other Stales in which the Prohibitory Law has since been passed are (ho loco-foco States of Rhode Island & Michigan, and the Whig Stales of Vermont and did the £ Jerald give up the Slate that imprisoned W. Dorr for advocating the right of suf frage, and deprived him of the rights of a citizen ? If it bo a Domocrallc t Slato it has lately come lo it, and was made so by the outrageous assaults of the advocates of the old British charter of that Slate upon the dearest rights of freemen. The Federalists having lost power there, as the advocates of tyranny, ore endeavoring lo regain it by advocating temper ance ! Who will dare deny this? Such 100 has been and still is the course of tho Federalists of Michigan, and other Stales that wo might mention —tho temperance question is mado tho hobby fur blue-light Federalists to rido into office and obtain power. But, we protest against what may bo done in wooden nutmeg Stales. Wo desire to speak of the subject as it presents itself in oar own Slalo and our own county. OrbiianV Tho Herald reminds ub Iliat last year Perry coun ty “with ila sweeping loco*foco majority, cent a prohibitory law man to tho Legislature," and that “tho Whig county of Adams did the same." And who, pray, voted for tho “prohibitory law man” in Perry ? Why, the Federalists and a faction of dis organizes catling themselves Democrats, who agreed to support (ion. Scott for tho Presidency, In consid eration of the former joining in to defeat tho regular nominee of the Democratic parly, Mr. Feller. It was a bargain and sale transaction—a regular coal, ilion to defeat the democracy and divide the spoils of office for tho lime being. Dut wo would like to see them again attempt to defeat the democracy of little Perry by a similar trick. Tho democrats there have got tbolr eyes open to this new Whig scheme, and wo warrant you, Mr. Herald, they will never bo caught in a like trap again. As to Adams courify .sending a Maine law man to the Legislature, that was all easy and natural. In Franklin and Lancas. ter counties, which are named la th v Herald, as liar, ing sent onli-prohibitory law members, it was be- cause in Franklin tho Democrats out voted thorn on that very question, and defeated the only temperance man nominated ; and in Lancaster, 100, those can didates on the Whig ticket who hud pledged them selves to vole for tho Maine law, wore relieved of tho responsibility, and permitted to remain at homo. While wo admire temperance, and would liko to see stringent and wholesome laws, (regulating the selling of liquors as a beverage,) wo shall oppose all attempts of political blusterers to mingle temperance with nolllics. Let men bo selected to the Legisla ture, not as Iho representatives of one idea, but as the representatives of the people on all subjects, ond then if they see proper lot them submit the question of prohibitory law, or no prohibitory law, to the peo ple themselves. Wo are opposed to oil this going by steam, and mixing up publics with questions of pure murals. The great object of the Herald in the present , political canvass, appears to bo to secure the elcc- i lion of the editor’s particular friend, Mr. Penrose, 1 as District Attorney. And this ho, in conjunction \ with tho editor of the Shippensburg News, attempts < to do, by lauding that gentleman as the only one I of iho two candidates qualified fur the office; and, by endeavoring, in an underhand way, to insinuate * that Mr. Shearer is not qualified in any respect. ' in the first notice of iho Democratic ticket in that [ 1 paper, every candidate was passed over almost in r 1 silence until it came to Mr. Shearer, as the Dc- I 1 mocratic candidate for District Attorney, and ho * was singled out from all the others for an attack. 1 lie was represented as being entirely unsuiled fori the duties of the station, while it was strongly in sinuated that tbo Whigs intended to offer a candi -5 date who would bo “ the exact thing.” This is all very well lo furnish hia friend with an ample I supply of puffs, and wo have nothing to say against r it, except that in so far as they hold up Mr. Pen , rose as being belter qualified for the office of Dis f tricl Attorney, than Mr. Shearer, they aro not ■ true. Mr. Penrose is represented as being an old 1 practitioner, of groat experience, and “peculiarly i qualified in point of integrity and firmness” for the > duties of that office. Now, in point of fact, every r citizen of our town knows that Mr. Shearer has had equally as much experience in our criminal courts as Mr. Pbnrosb, if nol a little more. He is also a young man of most excellent natural ability, and since ho commenced the study of his profession has been one of the most steady, in* duslrloufl, and indefatigable students in the place. Ho has already acquired the confidence and esteem of our citizens in a high degree, by tho uniform politeness and respect with which ho treats every individual, by the sterling Integrity of his charac ter, and the strenuous efforts ho has made to obloin a thorough knowledge of his profession. Ho is i omitely a self made man. All that ho is, and all 1 that he has, (but ho has nothing but his character land profession) has boon acquired by his good 1 conduct, and las unaided individual efforts. Ho came to town some years ago dcstiluto and friend* .less, and loomed the printing in one of our offices. | This business ho followed until ho was compelled to relinquish iv on account of his health * when ho studied law, passed an excellent examination, and | has elnoo been struggling up, single handed and WHIG POtilOY, DISTRICT ATTORNEY alone, in his profession under a weight of poverty and adverse circumstances. Ho has hadftom his I infancy a thorny and rugged path to tread, hut he has toiled along it thus far without the slightest shade of imputation on his moral character. And this is the kind of man, that the Herald and , Shipponsburg iVeios, aro busy in their efforts to | crush, for the sake of Mr. Penrose, who in his in fancy was rocked in the cradle of easo and indul gence; was educated and supported by wealthy friends; and since his admission to the bar.has had the influence of a large circle of relatives to pave his way to success and fortuno. In regard to the question of integrity anfl’fihn ness of character, which the Herald represents as being so essential to this office, Mr. Shearer need shrink from no man at the bar. His whole life, since ever wo have known him, has been charac terized by the roost undoubted, unflinching integ rity and firmness of purpose ; and these qualities, more than any other, have given him his present position before tho people, and secured the high regard of all who know him. We appeal to every citizen of our town with whom bo is acquainted, if this bo not (rue. A Prediction about to I>o Verified. Our readers will recollect that in the winter of 1851, resolutions were introduced into the Legisla ture of Ibis State, instructing our Senators ami re questing oar Members in Congress, to vote for an alteration of the tariff of 1846, so as to give a much | higher grade of protection, raise the duties on vari ous articles, and go back to the obnoxious features! of the tariff of 1842. On the resolutions being called I up for discussion, J. Ellis Bonham, Esq., then a, member of the Legislature from this county, made a long and most' powerful speech in opposition to ( their passage, and wo believe (hey wore eventually defeated through his exertions and influence. On referring to our files, wo find that ho closes' his speech on this subject, with this, (at the time,) i remarkable prediction, as the public mind of this Slate appeared to bo then much unsettled, and many Democrats wavered in their allegiance to the true Republican doctrine. It is as follows: "But, 1 must draw those remarks to ajcloso. Tho'taftTFof 1846 will pass thro’ thisordcal unscathed. It wilt not bo modified, in the sense th.ill the protectionists desire. And by the next Congress the increased number of democratic members mil bo able to guard with effect the interests of the pco-, pie. And when the Congress under the census now I taking assembles in Washington, when the great | agricultural West makes her potent voioo hoard inj tbo halls of national legislation, wo will then hear no more of protective tariffs, or discriminating du lienor incidental protection, which all moan the same thing, the taxing of .imports beyond the rov. , enuo standard, and that 100 for the purpose of pro* ] looting one class of the community at the expense of j tho masses. , Tbo iron masters and others who arc now so food of agitation, for unsettling the revenue tariff of 1816, > will then bo assembling in meetings and calling I upon Congress, not to disturb that tariff, but fur | God's sake to leave it as it is. And they will bo j wise In so doing, for gentlemen may rest assured, that the next modification of that act will bo a ro duclion of its duties. Tho progress of tho sgo is onward und upward,while (ho restrictions upon trade, and tho shackles heretofore imposed upon commerce, will soon bo a (ale (hat is told, and forgotten, amid tho light shed upon us by the rapid strides of an j advancing civilization." | Tho Congress under the "now census” hero spoken j of, is tho ono which will soon assemble; sod, in observing "the signs of tho times," wo notice the fol lowing significant paragraph in the money article of the Public Ledger, of tho Blh insl: “Tho Richmond Enquirer is oul in fovor of free trade. It contends that the land of HJ4&-g*vcs us freo trade only by comparison with the restrictive policy of 181*3. It argues that tho present tariff ncoda revision and reform ; that it presses unequally on different interests, and weighs heavily in tbu main on the labor of Lite country. There is much (ruth in these charges, and sooner or later they Avill have to bo corroded. Wo hava now some thirty mlllibhe of dollars lying icllo in the Treasury, and tpo annu al income from imposts is double the dilurcs of the Government. Tho surplus revenues ore equal to the payment of tho national debt in two years. Our Tariff advocates will probadly find it wise to agitate the Tariff question as little as pos sible. llcporlcd fur llio American Volunteer. pßOHinrrouv meeting* A meeting of the friends to a Prohibitory Law wqb hold in Education Hall on Friday evening the Blh inal. Ab no public notice was given, ond being rather disagroablo on account of raining ot the lime, only about 30 persons wore present, an equal num ber of both parties. On motion, Mr. George Zinn was called to the chair but declined serving, Mr. John Hycr was then substituted. Dr.J. K. Smith was elected Secretary. The object of tho meeting was slated by Mr. H. J. Mock to bo, that Mr. Moser having declined the nomination by the Prohibitory Convention, and as nono but Mr. Calhoarl was on the ticket, they had mol to consult who shall -bs pul on to fill the vacancy. Ucv. Tiffany was called on to address the meeting. Ho alluded briefly to 1 Mr. Moser’s “card," saying, ‘'ho is unworthy tho support of Piohibilory men”—said ho had “always boon u Whig, but never attended primary meetings, ; and went quietly to tho polls and voted.” Carson C. Moore, Esq., moved that the Central Committee's report bo hoard, os ho had understood they hod met. Dr. J. K. Smith reported that he had prepared a cir culur for distribution, sotting forth Mr. Moser’s course ; and represented in said circular, that at a previous mooting of some *lO Prohibitory Democrats but two voles wore given to Mr. Moser, that the balance were in favor of Mr. Koons, although no vole had been taken to know tho fact ; the report was accepted, and tho committee discharged from further consideration of the subject. A committee of arrangement was appointed to call mootings, Ate. Tho chair appointed tho following gentlemen: Messrs. J. Worthington, Dr. A. C. Norton, William Gould, Jacob Shilling, Prof. Marshall, Dr. Rawlins, Wm. IlatUocss, and others. Mr. Gould bogged to Ibo excused. Mr. Gould was excused, and Mr. Jas. I Gallagher oppoinlod In his place. Tho question of who shall publish tho proceedings oamo up Inform ally, when Dr. Smith said ho would not trouble tho Democratic Editors, as they had given him the “cold shoulder” on u few occasions. Mr, F. Common, moved that tho proceedings all bo published in tho Carlisle Herald, as now two Whigs were to bo run on tho prohibitory ticket; tho motion was seconded, but before the question was taken Mr. Common re plied to Dr. Smith* and defended the Editor of the Democrat from tho remarks of the Doctor. Dr. Smith explained by saying that ho know the dem ocralio editors wore placed in that position, that It was improper for thorn to publish all that might ho offered to thorn on this question. Tho explanation was satisfactory. Dr. Collins coming in late remark ed that l»o was present at tho Prohibitory Convention, 1 and from tho statements made with reference to Mr. I Koons’ views on Prohibition, thought that ho was a I a bolter Prohibitory man linn Mr. Moser, and should I now bo supported with Mr. Calhcorl. on that quos-1 j t i on and concluded with some excellent remarks in ’favor of o Prohibitory Law.

Wo expect some day before long to eco our “ono idea 11 friends nominate a candidate for President. What a glorious fellow ho or she would bo, if elected, to quell another Whiskey Insurrection in Pennsylvania. But to tlio extract: New York, August 30,1853. ‘Bedlam’ will break loose, again in this city, tho day after 10-morrow, on tho occasion of tho whole World's Tompcronco Convention —to bo composed of tlio Bloomer women, and their Abolition associates, who made themselves so supremely silly, what similar occasion, last spring. C. C. Burleighf (white man,) Fred. Douglap,-(black mon,) Wendell ■ Phillips, (mad man,) Horace Greoly, (cracked iwn,) 1 and Miss Luoy Slone, (a mannish woman,) tomnlior 'with ‘Rev.’Anlonlello Brown (parson innan^ollcs,) I aro some of (he notorieties who adverliaoHiToTnßolvcs J to figure on (ho occasion. \ Since the above was in typo wo have scon the pro* feedings of tho two Temperance Conventions, which 1 will bo found below. Wo should suppose them to bo {highly satisfactory and edifying to those who have I die cause ol heart. Seriously, the real Temperance - Convention did not wish to bo mixed up with the 1 Abolitionists and Women Rights advocates, but it seemed d pretty difficult matter to got rid of their zealous allies. Tho proceedings aro given as fol lows : SCENES IN NEW YORK CONVENTIONS. The Now York papers aro filled with Iho doscrip. '.ions of tho disorderly scenes which occur daily in dial city during tho sessions of tho Anti-Slavery, Woman’s Rights, and Temperance Conventions. A perfect Babel prevailed during the sessions, and every attempt to spook was cried or hissed down. At the Woman's Rights Convention tho following is ono of l!io scenes [Loud cries of‘Phillips !' ‘Phillips!’ Hisses and cheers ] Wondcll Phillips—Fellow citizens, I am nol at all surprised— A (orcnl of hisses. zq. Phillips—At tho reception which I mod— Mrs. Rose—l call upon the Police— Voices—out of order. Mrs. Rose—Tho Mayor of this City has promised to keep tho order of this mooting, and I call upon him to do it. Phillips—Friends ! Mrs. Rose—Friends, will you keep order 1 Phillips—Follow-oilir-cns! Hisses from all parts of tho house. Cries of Sit down ! sit down !' Continued hisses. Phillips—Tho time has been when other Reform era were met in the samo way as this—by hisses. Continued hisses. Mrs. Rose—As presiding officer of this meeting. I call upon the police to preserve order, und if there are nol police enough to do it, 1 call upon you, citi zens, tn help them. Mr. Phillips—Wo have invited you to this Hall to night, to discuss a great movement. ‘Dry up !’ Mr. Phillips—When you will answer our arguments, we will cease our agitation. T warn you that Truth has often floated farther on the lips of a mob than on the words of its advocates. Great confusion. . Phillips Tho best thing yoo can do for us, If you hate this movement, is to come hero to tho number of thousands, and disgrace your city. [Groat uproar.] Tho groat principle of Liberty is that each point cj! class bo able to protect itself. A Voice—Niggers excepted. [Laughter.] Phillips— No class of human beings can legislate for another. While yoo undertake to punish woman, as American Democratic Republicans, you ore bound | by your own principles, to allow her to vole in the 1 law under which she is punished. Confusion renewed. Phillips—l say again— Tho oudicnco gave him no lime to soy it. Lucy Slone next made her appearance. Cries of‘Hoar her!’ 'Dear Lucy !' ‘Darling Lucy !’ i ‘Toko your lime, Miss Lucy !’ Stone—Show a reason why you will nut hoar us speak f There is no man who has known the genial J influence of a mother but would feel disgraced Voices—‘Our mothers dld’nl act so.’ ‘Oh, it’s a pity you wasn’t married !' [Laughter ] Miss Slone's remarks became wholly inaudible in consequence of the increasing tumult. She conclu ded her remarks in the midst of remarkable confu sion. She would give place to others who had spok en well. Stic asked that whatever word of truth had bean spoken might hod a lodgment in your head and heart. Wo may one day call a convention in Now York, when tho suns of those hero present may have been taught bolter behavior. [Cheers and sensation.] To show that wo oto nol to bo deterred by any show of opposition, 1 shall announce, before I sit down, that wo propose to hold a National Woman’s Rights Convention at Cleveland, Ohio, on the slb and 6th of October. [lronical cheers and cries of -We’ll bo lore!’] Rov. Antoinette Brown next addressed the moot ing, telling an anecdote about & certain strong mind cd woman, who hod a slight difference with her husband, and refused, according to the demand of the law, to give up her children, but was afterwards compelled to do so by the wicked will which her hus band caused to lake effect after his death. -The fair and reverend lady was frequently interrupted during the narrative by noisy human beings, imitating the vocal Bounds in which cals and dogs usually give utterance to such feelings as they may happen to en- tertain. At tho Temperance Convention somo-oflho fomale ipoakers at tho Woman’s Rights Convention appear ed as dologalcs. Objections wore instantly raised to ihcir having a place. Tho Pesldonl decided they had the right, an tiro call was directed to all the Temperance organizations. This produced confu- Rov. Mr. Chambers—Mr. President: It is useless to Iry lo go on, so I move that the Convention adjourn sine die. [A storm of‘No,’ * No,' came from all parts ufiUo house.] I Mr. Phillips, (who was still on his feel) —If any | ono has the flour, I tiuvo it [‘Question, question.*] Tito motion to adjourn was lust. Tho President —The question before the Conven tion is tho appeal (.Phillips') as lo this matter. Mr. Phillips—l claim to speak on it. Tho question was at onco put and lost. Then tfio question recurred upon Col. Camp's appeal, and a division being had, the decision of the Chair was sustained. *- Dr. Snodgrass—Miss Drown desires mo lo soy for her that she does not yield tho floor. A Delegate—Then you sit down at once. Mr. Hildreth —VV us not a resolution passed that no ono should occupy tho rostrum but the officers of the Convention 7 Mr. Phillips—Miss Drown has the floor. Tho President —It is in order. In my opinion it is proper fur any delegate lo occupy tho platform for tho (imO'boing. Rev. Mr. Hunt, of Pennsylvania, rose to a point of order. [Loud hisses } You need not hiss me, if you do you will not get mo down till doomsday. [Laugh ter and erics of'Louder.'] Oh, hoop quiet, I am not going to make myself hoarse with bawling. [Morri mont.l The decision of (ha Chair was right enough, that delegates have a right lo speak, but then we have the right to decide as lo the character of those delegates. Would wo receive Joe Smith if ho came with his twenty wives as delegates from Salt River nr Sail Lake—Would wo sit by and hoar them talk 7 [Loud hisses, applause, laughter, and general noise.] My point is, that the decision of tho Chair does not entitle—l was going lo soy ‘lady’—[Loud hisses and Immense confusion.] Dr. Snodgrass hero sprang to his feel and exclaim* ud : ‘ls it within our rules, lo say nothing about Die rules of gentility, lor a man to say ‘he will nut say lady 7’ I make that point, lias ho a right to lake back a word ?' [Loud orios of‘No, no, do.'} A Voice—Cotlatply ltd has the right. Shame, shame. Mr. Hunt continued. I say when any one places himself or herself on un equality, wo stand on the same grotmd and in this movement wo are not ‘ladies and gentlemen,' wo are all Temperance people and not to bo designated by especial terms. A fat gentleman boie got up on a bench and asked' ‘ls this a Temperance mooting, or aro they alt drunk?’ A scono of imfnonso confusio* then took place, about two or three hundred people being on their foot at ono time. In tho midst of tho disturbance, loud oa) Is fur Miss Brown oamo Rom her friends, of whom thoro wore many In the house'. Miss Brown—Mr. President: [This was a signal for tho renewal of hostilios,against tho fair reformer, and she was entirely choked off by a tornado of groans, hisses, stamping of foot, hammering of cones and umbrellas; forming altogether a confusion ton fold 'worse confounded.’ Mr, Booth, (in a loud voice) —Shame on the clergy. [This observation was directed-towards several gan* ilcmon in white strangulators (<. e. cravats) who wore conspicuously persistent in their opposition to tho intrusion of tho female element into Iho deliberations of the body.] Mr. Comstock—Yes, shame upon the clergy ! Shame oa Mr. Chambers! [Groat excitement oil round.’] A Delegate—l want all tho drunken rowdies pat out of tho hall. Several Voices—‘Who do you moan, sir ? Do you moan mo ?’ [Continued tumult.] Rev. Mr. Chambers, (excitedly)—l am not asham ed to have 'shame* said to mo. Tho scene of confusion, recrimination, romon stance, objurgation, defiance, noise, and intense excitement that ensued utmost baffles description. Every ono was on his logs, either on tho floor or on tho benches, every ono wanted to speak, every ono got red in (ho face, nobody could bo at all understood amid the din of‘Mr. President—Miss—the right—Brown—shame —the police—outrageouc—shame,’ and so forth, for no more of tho observations of tho excited delegates reached tho reporter’s table. Tho President in vain called for peace, 1 Miss Brown, however, surveyed (ho conflict with undlminishcd serenity—in fact, she appeared to bo the only cool spectator of tlio scono of excitement. When the storm had in a measure subsided, Miss Brown again essayed to ho lionrd. Slio said : 'lt is enough’— [Groans, shuffling of feet and all tho ct colcras.] Again every body wanted to make o speech, but nobody could, unj] thoro was a regular encore of the former troubles.
