Bkiodam Yovno on Poltgamy. lirig-
ham Young claims that polygamy Is not pe
culiar lo MormouiBm. In a sermon recently
ho said that I rather Abraham bad many
wives, and he 0nnt.J many others. Ue said
that God boJ never forbidden polygamy.
The Savior never rebuked it, though sur
rounded by It. It was a new invention to
rule out (this practice of the olden time.
"But," said be, "wo are not polygamists
exactly." (He has children by nine wives.)
''But wo are sealed for eternity, as it is re
vealed to us." no then spoke of the dreary
life ibat miiBt be passed through the untold
and incomprehensible period of eternity by
those who have no congenial spirits sealed"
to them. These sealed companions, beauti
ful angels in eternity, will make us bnppy
in the presence of God. But Brlguaui did
n't explain tho effect upon the men. While
a mau lias twenty wives or angels to make
him happy, the poor women have only 0110-
twentieth part of a man to attract their at
tention.

Important Conversion- to Catholicism.
We learn on authority which we are forced
to regard as .unquestionable that the Rev.
James Kent Stone, D. D. , late President u'
Uobart College (Episcopalian) at Geneva,
has unqualifiedly declard his renunciation
of the tenets ot the Protestant Episcopal
Churcb and his conversion to Catholicism.
This announcement will occasion no little
surprise amoug those of the Doctor's friends
who know how zealously ho labored i:i the
cause with which be has so long beta Men-
tilied. Dr. Stone is man of great ability

He is a grandson of Chancellor Kent. LI

A singular document appears in the To

Irom Conrad Meyer, the condemned mm det

of bis wife who has lately become a mother.
He says: "On Mondays and Thursdays I
Bhall be happy to see and converse with any
one who is willing to testify bis or her sym
pathy by contributing, however small, to
ward the support ot my poor, heart-btoken
wife and her Infant. I urn compelled to ask
that the public will not take offense at this
appeal. My own fato I shall try to meet

Last week as Mr. A. S. Palmer, of Petro
leum Centre, was returning from Scrubgrass
on tbe Allegheny Valley train, his pocket
book, containing a large amount of money,
dropped from bis pocket on the seat, and
be left the car without discovering bis loss.
AfUr be had taken bis seat tn the omnibus
to cross tbe river, Conductor Charles Taylor
came to the door and asked if any passenger
bad lost a pocket-book, whereupon Mr. P.
discovered bis loss and identified the same,

of mention and commendation, as it is not

At Sheridan, the present terminus of tLe
Kansas Pacific Railway, a few nights ago,
a mule thief was taken out to the railroad
bridge, near town, to be banged. The rope
had been placed around the fellow's neck
before starting from town, and he was led
along like aa ox to llio slaughler, but, on
arriving at the bridge, ami while ttie vigil
antes of the hangman were lasieniug the
other end of the rope to tho trestle work of
the bridge, the alleged thief slipped tbe
noose from bis neck, slipped out of the crowd
and off tho bridge, and made his escape.
Somo forty or fifty shots were fired after the
slippery fellow, but it any of them hit bis
person tbey slipped off, and he got away unhurt.

Important to O. C. & A. li. Rr. Pasben
uk Its. On the first of next month a new
passenger tariff will go into etl'jct on the
above mentioned railway, which is of great
importance to passengers. In case tbe pas
sengers purchase tickets, the tariff will be
tbe same as at present, but if tbe fare is
"paid on tbe train" ten cents additional wil
be charged, and for all distances over ten
. miles one half cent per mile additional will
be charged. TbiB tariff has been fixed upon
by the company, principally for the puipoeo
ot inducing passengers to purchase tickets
that the co duetors nfay not be hampered
In collecting lures and making change. The
largo number of fares that is collected on
every train between Tilusvillo and Oil City,
and the time occupied in making change,
necessarily retard tbe progress of the trains.
Tbe new tariff will tend to obviate tbe ne
cessity of making change; and, if all the
paBseugora will purchase ticketa, tbe run
ning time of tbe train between Titusville
aod Petroleum Centre can be made ten to
fifteen minutes faster, and fifteen lo twenty
faster between Titusville and Oil City. The
saving t!nt can be made in tbe rumiiug time
is of consequence, and tbe new rale will
give general satisfaction. Herald!.
