That he dots BOt mince matters,the following clipping wM shew: "Mark, the rink is the devil's trap, and ministers are his bait. Hew often is that the case in this life. Ne wonder a certain minister once said te lis be believes hell will be lined with preachers." This breezy literature has affected the quiet town like a miniature earthquake, nnd the local secular papers take their turn in denouncing its author. Many who never knew before the interior of the rink have, since hostilities opened, visited the "Devil's play house." as its ministerial opponent sulpburlcally terms It. In order that bis reason for se call lng it may net be misunderstood, he de Clares that cunning "Old Nick'' in the skating rink abomination has obtained a held upon these who leek with horror upon saloons and billiard rooms.

That Washington girl who ran off te marry a man, after she had invited two thousand people te witness her marriage te another, must have been severely afflicted with the dementia which seems new-a days te assail the young woman in search of a husband, who is net con tent any mere te de the business in a commonplace way, but thinks it abso lutely essential te her happiness te make a sensation. Itusel te be that a girl's fancy was satisfied in the selection of her trousseau and In the glory of a big wedding and the hale of a dozen bridesmaids. But that style has get tee common. Something unlooked for must attend the great event which comes ee seldom in a woman's experience. The coachman dodge for a time has been popular and bid fair te spread widely and wildly. Bull lllss Willard Has seen that, and gene better. She prepares te marry one fellow and leaves him in the lurch along with two thousand expectant terrapin eaters. The Jilting feature of her per formance is net a novel one ; but the abandonment of the Werth dresses and the big 'wedding is a very strlkinR innovation en female fancies. It lsnrettv evident that it was net any violent love for tue man she took that made her take him; because the ether is endorsed as a very nice young fellow, who was her parents' choice ; and it is net te be rashly assumed that such a young man with the Werth dresses and big wedding en his side, would net be mere than a match for the wildest love erer woman dreamed 0. Evidently Miss Willard was con trolled by the modern mania for a sensa tional wedding. The young men who hnve their marriage days set and guests invited, will need new te put a watch en their girls day and night lest they skip away from them us Miss Willard f kipped from Simpsen. should net lead in a movement that every town of its size in the state shall fall In with.

He wrestled valliantly with the figures and could only make out a plurality for the Republican candidate by cutting away from the Cleveland electors the estimated fusion vote cast for them by the Green backers and anti Monopolists in Iowa, Nebraska and Michigan. Even with this violent as sumption the Blaine plurality could only be swelled te 21,217. New comes Texas with 134,665, instead of the estimated 100,000 ; se that, adopting the Trilune'3 extraordinary system of calculation, there remains for Cleveland a clear plurality ever Blaine of 18,008 which is mere than Garfield had ever Hancock. But giving Cleveland what he is fairly entltffcfte in the states where there was a fusion of the anti-Republican elements and en the ether hand giving Blaine all the fusion votes in Missouri, Cleveland would have an aetual plurality of 61,160, while Blaine's minority the country ever is nearly 350,013. &?' 'J 'ft J" $,, 4. 3s V It will be remembered that the territorial delegates, admitted te the Chicago convention for the first time this year, were elements of strength for Blaine, and that in the management of bis campaign McCermlck, of Arizona, Tem Donaldsen, late of Colerado, and Elklns, from nearly everywhere, were the most confidential agents. He has always been thick with the territorial delegates In Congress and has steadily promoted their claims te places en com mittees and enlarged influence. It is Bew admitted that had Blaine been elected the territories would have been given a member et the cabinet, though It is left te conjecture whether it would have been Elkins himself, Dersey or some ether adventurer. But there is no doubt that the questions of speeial in terest te the territories, like the control and disposal of the publle lands, running the Pacltle railroads and Indian govern gevern n?nt, offer inviting fields of plunder, WBleh would have been improved by the kind of an administration that would hare gathered around Blaine. : One of the most significant features at the table of the popular vote for nres- csj-MtMMUiat wnue Uarfleld had 74 089 v'etw ia Maine Blaine received only 71,716.

Alte, Franklin cennty, in a pimphlet published by him for the information of charcoal iron works dnring a season of snoeessful operation. The feature of it which especially delights the ilttunger correspondent is that during tbe period described the furnace was ''banked" every Saturday night, nnd opened again en Monday morning. "The Lord's D.iy was a day of rest for the furnace itself aud for all the workmen con&eeted with it.' It is a common impression, that a continu ous blact in a lurnace ia a necessity ; but Cel. Wiestling disputes this, insists that his machinery was the better for its weekly rest and hints that tbe cessation from work ene day in seven would help te relieve the over-preduotlon of Iren from which the market rollers. It has always been a favorite theory with theso who oppose women's entranea into the masculine field of work ou solentlflo principles that study, long and earnest, is tee mueh of a strain en their physieal systems.

Moreover, a larger percentage of thorn complete the oenrsa and graduate, and tle arerage of scholarship among thorn is higher than among the young men," And President Angell, of Michigan University, declares that the system of giving women all the privileges of lua trnotien accorded in the university te men has worked most admirably for thirteen years.

The case oame befere the court of queer's bench, the counsel en both sides comprising half a dozen oftbemestpromi nent lawyers iu the city.and at the conclu sion of the trial, a fox U w ttm jnry brought in a veidict of guilty. This morning counsel for the prosecution moved for sentence Mr Beutin, en appearing iu court, was accompanied by several friends, and the court room was crowded, the proceedings having excited very great iuteresr, net only en asceunt of their legal bearing, but from the fact that Bantin is a millionaire and ena of tha wealthiest men in the Dominion. Judge Menk, in passiDg esntecce, said he did net wish te dugul e the regret he felt at the duty lm toden him. The facts of the case, he Baid, weie undcniabl, the statute was precise and clear, and the vcrdlet was bus tained in law. Fer the effense the statute prescribed Imprisonment in jail for any period net exceeding two years. Ne line was allowable. Otherwise he might have Imposed one. Bnt the court was disposed, in vier; of the faet that restitution of the money with interest had b;en made, te ba lenient, and would consequently limit the term of imprison ment ai mueh as possible.
