Mason, the Sergeant who attempted
the life of Ouiteau, has been tried by
'Court Martial and sentenced to im
prisonment for eight years, to be dis
honorably discharged from the service,
and to forfeit all pay and allowances.
Numerously signed petitions from
different part of the country have been
sent to President Arthur praying for
Mason's pardon. One petitiou from
Chicago contained the names of 100,
000 citizens.
First Senator Conkllng refuses the
U. S. Supreme Judgeship, and now
Senator Edmunds decline the same
high place. These men arv too' great
in their own estimation to be relega

there Is an idea in the minds of tii a un
people that his retirement from poli
tics is for the public good, and this
while acknowledging his toweriug
abilities as an orator and a statesman.

Journey ouly to be broken onco by a
two hours' sea-passage" such is tiie
latest proposition submitted to the
consideration of capitalists by Ameri
can enterprise. The plan for this gi
gaDtic undertaking have been drawn
out by a Mr. Gregory, well-known iu
Transatlantic railway circles, whose
readiness to carry them out, so soon as
the necessary funds shall be placed at
iiis disposal, may be taken forfrranted.
His line of route, starting from the
commercial capital of the States,
passes through Canada, New Georgia
and Alaska to Cape Prince of Wales,
whence the passengers are to be con
veyed by a steamer to East Cape, on
the opposite Asiatic coast of Bchring's
Straits, and distant about forty miles
from the northwestern extremity of
the American Continent. From East
Cape the iron road to be constructed
will cross Russian territory in North
ern Asia until it joins the Siberian
railway system, already in direct con
nection, through Moscow and St
Petersburg, with all the European
capitals. Mr Gregory calculates that
the nlstance between New York ana
Paris, the American Paradise, can be
traversed bv this route iu 372 hours,
and at a cost of about thirty pounds
to each passeuger. From the London

Delightful old Rip Van Wiukle,

Jefferson have made one of the most
famous of American characters, Is just
published, with other of Irving's
choicest "Sketches," in a charming
little red-line, gilt edge, richly orna
mented volume, for the marvelously
low price of 35 cents, or by mail, 40
cents, by tbe Useful Knowledge Pub
lishing Company, of New York City.
They issue an edition of the same,
bound in plain cloth, for 25 cts., post
paid, and another, new In style of
binding, appropriately named "Util

volumes are issued especially to show
to tbe book-buying millions the

of workmanship, with the wonderful
economy in cost, which the " Literary

large number of staudard and exceed

Miner's counsel, Mr. Hine, said that
they had expected to be prepared to

failure to do so, Mr. Jiine said that
their bondsmen had found their pro
perty to lie encumbered to such au ex
tent a would make them unacceptable

Religion in Leipzig.
Mr. Editor: In the Advocate
of March 2d, 1882, under Religious
News and Notes Is the following item i
"Leipzig, in Germany, lias only
seven churches, all poorly attended,
and no such thing as a Sabbath-school.
The people are Indifferent to religion,
and look upon a religious person with
curiosity.''
From communications direct from
Leipzig which I had read in German
papers, and from what I had known
from other sources, the item looked
suspicious to ine. On making further
inquiry I obtained the following com
munication which I submit for publi
cation. The communication is taken
from the N. Y. Independent. 1 he
Item in question appeared first in the
Presbyterian aud has made the rounds
in other paper. I submit the commu
nication partly to correct false impres
sion which the Item may have made,
but more especially for the informa
tion of those whom it may concern.
The following is the communication
direct from Leipzig, by Caspar Rene
Gregory.
An indignant correspondent has just
forwarded to me The Presbyterian for
January 14th, which contains upon
page 16 the following note about Leip
zig: "Leipzig has only seven
churches, poorly attended, and no such
thing as a Sabbath-school. The people
are ludilferent to religion and look
upon a religious person with curiosity
and amusement.
It would perhaps be as well to take
up first the general statement at the
cloe of that note and declare that the
people of Leipzig are by no means "in
different to religion." and that any
one inclined to "look upon a religious
person with curiosity and amusement,"
would find iu Leipzig ample exercise
for his curiosity aud a great deal of
amusement.
We grant that religion, especially
in It externals, Is, upon the whole,
less cultivated in Leipzig than it is in
many parts of America; but it must
not be forgotten that the cast aud
phase of religion in Germany is alto
gether different from that in England
and America aud that the tokens of
its life are of a different character. The
Millennium has not yet come here.
We question whether it has already
come in America.
The names of Luthardt and De
Iltz4ch will sulllcetoassure theologian
that there is a strong stream of warm
Christian influence flowing from the

larly enough, one of the foremost siu-
nuo, singu-
deutsof Presbyterian. Church polity;
a member of the upper house of the
Saxon Parliament; and although over
seventy, still a vigorous preacher, is
perhap the leading man In the direc
tion of all that pertains toschools, aud
ii is unnecessary to say ttiat religion is
well cared for in these schools. A
single example, the St. Nicholas Gym
nasium, with oOO scholars, appear to
have over forty hours a week of reli
gious instruction in the different
classes, and this include lessons on
church history, introduction, exegesis,
ana uocirine. ii is my Impression
thut there are three teacher of religion
in this one school, and this system
of religious instruction i carried
through all schools.
As other general token or religious
life, we may refer, in the first place,
to the existence of two missionary so
cieties, one of which ha it head
quarter here, with a school for the
special training of those who are go
ing out to mission-fields; and, in the
second place, to the Evaugellcal
Uuiou, which here, as iu other tier-
man cities, ha a large house devoted
to all manner of good work. Tills
house i the central point for twenty
or more societies, among others a
Young Men' Christian Association.
1 he fourth scries of Luthardt s a polo
getical lectures were delivered in the
hall of this house, before large audi
ences, during tiie last winter. A
rule, two series are held here during
each winter, one series free and one
requiring the payment of a small en
trance fee, about $0.12.
But we must touch upon the Sab
bath-schools. "No such thing as l
Sabbath-school!" In Saturday' pa
peri a list of eight Sunday school
neki in Leipzig ana the immediately
adjoining village. I lie largest, con
tabling several hundred children, i
iu the iiouse of the Evangelical
Union, mentioned above, and is led
by Pastor Zinsser, the director of that
large charity aud an evangelical and
popular preacher. One of the other
is led by Dr. Robert Keonig.the editor
or me uaneim, a valuable illustrated
weekly newspaper for the family.
"No such thing as a Sabbath-school,"
Indeed! Still, we wish, there were
more of them. As for the "seven
churches," in Leipzig proper there are
nine churches, with edifices of their
own; aud, if we include the immedi
ately adjoining villages and the ser
vice held in chapel (all of which,
with the hours and the preachers, are
noted regularly in in the newspaper
every Saturday;, there are nineteen
place of worship. Besides this, it
should be remembered that two of the
large churches, and as well the Catho
lic church, have service three times on
Sunday. In 'these numbers we have
not included the services of the Eng
lish and French chapels, or of the
American chapel, with its Sunday-
school. The larire churches have
three or four pastors During tiie
week there are about eight minor ser
vice, it may added that three
churches are about to be built in Leip
zig aud it suburbs. Yesterday1 pa
per calls for proposal for the prepara
lory work on one of these churches,
amounting to over $100, 0U0.
The attendance unon the church ser
vices varies with the preacher; but the
lavorite preacher, and these are not
a few, are sure of good audiences, aud
that ut'half-past eight aud nine o'clock
in the morning.

STRANGE AND EVENTFUL HISTORY
A FRENCH AMERICAN WOMAN OF
NOBLE BIRTH LIVING BY THE AID
OF CHAfctTY.
Look Hnven Dully Journal.)
In that portion of the city known
as "The Devil's Half Acre." has re
sided for some time, one Mrs. Ann
Roan, a widow lady, aired about 60
years, as near as can be ascertained.
The history of her life reads like a ro
mance, but the statements hereafter
to be made are borne out not only by
people who have known her, but by
nistory. Although at present living
off the charity iu the bumble home of
Mr. John Raymond, an employe of
Klstler's tannery, this woman is
OF NOBLE BIRTH.
Her grandfather on ber father's side
waa a French Nobleman, who was
given the City of Florence for his coat
of arms. Her father. Major Dellaas,
is mentioned in history a number of
times for his daring exploit. Major
ueuaas married a Miss sntppen, ol
Philadelphia. His wife's sister was
THE WIFE OF BENEDICT ARNOLD,
who turned traitor to his county in
the dark days of the Revolution.
Every school boy or girl will remem
ber the circumstances of his treason
as related in history. Arnold, while
stationed in Philadelphiaas command
ant, fell iu love with Miss Shipped, n
lady of very aristocratic antecedents
and of strong Tory predictions, 'flits
union, no doubt predisposed him to
look favorably upon any scheme look-
ng toward the betrayal of iii
country. Mrs. Iloan is, therefore, by
marriage.
A NIECE OF BENEDICT ARNOLD,
and a descendant of one of the oldest,
wealthiest and most aristocratic fami
lies of tho country.
Mrs. Roan's mother died when she
was quite young and she has no recol
lection of having seen her. Soon after
Mrs. DeHaas' death, the Ma or. almost
distracted with grief, left the city aud
came to tills country with hi baby
daughter, in his coach heavily draped
In mourning, and drawn by richly
caparisoned horses. His appearance
always created a commotion on ac
count of the splendor of his equip
ments, and number of servants, lie
was
VERY WEALTHY,
and purchased much la'hd between
Lock Haven and Marsh Creek.
Among tbe last of his possessions
were the farm now' owned by the
heirs of Messrs. Holienback, Herring
and Whitefield, located this side of
Beech Creek.
HIS YOUNGEST DAUGHTER,
Ann, named after his beloved wife,
grew to womanhood ami married one
Joshua Roan, a blacksmith by occu-
f union, and a man or intemperate
labits. After hermarriage she drifted
away from her father, who died with
out leaving her any of his wealth.
For many years she lived at Mill Hall,
where her husband, she says, fell and
killed himself while intoxicated. At
tiie time of iiis death he was employed
by a man named Nybart. Airs, no in
is the mother of three children a son
and two daughters, all of whom reside
in the eon nt v. Almost all of Iter liie
thus far ha been spent in Mill Hall,
r lemlngton or ImhK Haven, in all oi
which places she worked at whatever
she could find to do. Sometime since
she went to "The Devil's Half Acre"
to nurse the child of a woman named
Kitchen, and when her employment
ceased she had no place to go. Not
desiring to go to the Poor House, Mr.
and Mr. Raymond kindly gave her a
home last September.
nElt APPEARANCE.
This morning a Journal reporter
found the remarkahle old lady at Mr.
Raymond's. In appearance she is
small of statue, witli a face wrinkled
aud grooved by the sad experience of
a life begun iu all the luxuriant com
forts of wealth and aristocracy and
soon to end in the home of charitably
disposed people. Her hair is thin aud
quite gray; her sense of sight seems to
be still unimpaired, being able to knit
and do other kinds of work without
the use of spectacles. When remind
ed by the reporter that she wa of
noble birth and wealthy parentage
her memory seemed to brighten for
she exclaimed: "All. yes, sir; no one
can deny that! My father owned
thirteen plantations at one time and I
could step from one to the another
without crossing any other land. I
nover haw my mother, aud as to my
age I am not certain.
HER BROTHER, PHILIP,
was the father of the wife of the late
Hon. James Chatham, of this city,
Alex. DeHaas. Joseph DeHaas and
Mary J. Johnson, of Beech Creek, and
illiam DeHaas. of Corsica. Jelterson
county. Pa. She had two brothers
beside Philip William and Edward
and two sisters .11 za ana uarriei
Mr. Roan and Edward are the only
member of the family living, so far
as she is able to tell. Edward lives
with hi son, John Philip DeHaas, on
Marsh Creek, Centre county.
HER MOTHER'S SISTER,
Mrs. Bintrham. is referred to as follows
in an article published in Philadelphia
in 187H In one of "the paper: "Here is
Mrs. Bingham, once Mis Shippen, an
acknowledged leader of society, who
having reigned at the court or i.ouis

No Whiskey !
Brown's Iron Bitters
is one of the very few tonic
medicines that are not com
posed mostly of alcohol or
whiskey, thus becoming a
fruitful source of intemper
ance by promoting a desire
for rum.
Brown's Iroi Bitters
is guaranteed to be a non
intoxicating stimulant, and
it will, in nearly every case,
take the place of all liquor,
and at the same time abso
lutely kill the desire for
whiskey and other intoxi
cating beverages.
Rev. G. W. Rice, editor of
the American Christian Re
view, says of Brown's Iron
Bitters:
Cin.,O..Nov. 16, 1881.
Genti : The foolish wast
ing of vital force in business,
pleasure, and vicious indul
gence of our people, makes
your preparation a necessity ;
and if applied, will save hun
dreds who resort to saloons
for temporary recuperation.
Brown's Iron Bitters
has been thoroughly tested
for dyspepsia, indigestion,
biliousness, weakness, debil
ity, overwork, rheumatism,
neuralgia, consumption,
liver complaints, kidney
troubles, &c, and it never
fails to render speedy and
permanent relief.
