The Second adventists are trying their
hands'again a putting an end to all sub
lunary things. The term of earthly exist
ence is now set down by infallible calcu
lations in 1873. Thirty years ago it was
pronounced just as emphatically as to
day; yet the failure of the programme
then and several times since seems scarce
ly to damp the ardor of believers. The
Franco-Prussian war, the Paris insurrec
tion, and the Chicago fire furnish new
points in illustrating the fulfilment of
prophecy.
Colonel James Montgomery, of Kat
sas Free State memory, died at his home
in that State last week, at the age of fif
ty-eight years. Froth 1856 to 1861 he
was the central figure of the Free-State
cause in Kansas, and his name was a
tower of strength to the persecuted and
struggling settlers of that dark and bloody
tronter. He was a man of great original
powers of mind, and bravo as a forest of
lions. During the war of rebelion he
commanded a regiment of colored troops
with which he wrought gallant and val
uable service. He was one of the most in
timate friends and advisers of John
Brown and was one of a party who pro
posed to rescue the old man while he lay
in prison at Charlestown, had there been
any probability of accomplishing that re
sult.
DS.The leading papers of the country
are rejoicing over the death of the notor
ious Jim Fisk. They pronounce his loss
to New York city a National blessing.—
He was a gold gambler and a licentious
villian.
_Nil his millions of gold he
bribed Legislatures and Judges. In his
private life he set at defiance all law,
morality and public decency, and it was
right and proper that he should come to
his death as he did. A lewd woman, Mrs.
Marfield, who was well known as his mis
tress, was really the cause of his assassi
nation. He wa,s a sharp, shrewd and un
scrupulous business man. He and his
partner, Jay Gould, owned-the Erie Rail
road,oad its income enabled them to bribe
their tools. This property was .a great
power in the land, as its monthly receipts
; were over a million of dollars.

DarThe•N. Y. JlTorld in . commenting.
upon the carper of Tweed says: Except
Louis Napoleon, Tweed's is perhaps the
most sudden and impressive fall that has
, happened in our time. Last winter and
the winter before, this forsaken and hu
miliated man was omnipotent in our State
and city politics. He dictated the Leg
islation of the mostlmpprtant State in the
Union, moulding it to his will and shap
ing it as ho pleased. His influence was as
great over the Republican as the Demo
cratic members. In the Government of this
great city ho was an autocrat. Hispo=
litical influence was reinforced by the in
fluence of great but ill-gotten riches. And

"And the winds blew, and thefloods came
and . beat upon the house and it fell, and
great was the fall thereof."
THE SIZE or THE UNION.-It has been
said that there is only one man who has
a correct idea of the size of the United
States, and he is the man who drove a
yoke of oxen, in 1850-51, from Maine to
California. However, this may be, the
newspaper remark that "but few people
realize the immensity of our territorial a
rea," is true There are in the Great West
eleven Territories, two of which are twice
or three times as large as all New Eng
land ; and it is a small Territory that is
not at least ten times as large as Massa
chusetts. Colorado is thirteen times as
large as Massachusetts, while Dakota and
Arizona are half as large again as Colo
rado. The eleven Territories, as accura
tely as can at present be ascertained, con
tain over one billion and a quarter acres,
exceeding by nearly two hundred thou
sand square miles the aggregate territory
of all the present admitted States of the
Union. The Territory of Alaska, contain
ing 369,529,600 acres, is included in the
number acres stated.
STRANGE SCENE IN CONGRESB.-00
Tuesday morning the House was opened
with prayer by the Rev. Prof. Abraham
de Solo, of Montreal, a distinguished Jew
ish Rabbi. According to the custom of
that denomination, the reverend doctor
wore his hat while invoking the blessing
of Heaven upon the members. It is said
that this is the first time in the history of
the Government that a representative of
the Hebrew faith has opened Co ass
with prayer. Some of the members en
tering the hall after the learned Rabbi
had commenced the devotions, noticing
his hat on his head, supposed he was ei
ther absent minded or was not aware Of
the rules of the House and the usages of
religion. The Rabbi's prayei, however,
was very good and the novelty , was keen
ly relished by I_2l . j 1 present.
teirThe Pittsburg Commercial says the
Philadelphia Poet thinks that "it is plain
ly the duty of Governor Geary to pardon
Schceppe immediately. Aiken's' testimo
ny in the Baltimore case is but a repeti
tion of his tests at Carlisle. It is an out
rage to keep this man in jail a moment
when the chemist who convicted him has
been proved a mere a quacks' This is ra
ther summary as a conclusion, but in view
of Aiken's annihilation as a chemist,
Schceppe has a right to be heard. He was
convicted on Aiken's testimony, and Ai
ken has been impeached, while the priso
ner, by accident, is yet unhung. There
is something his due.
te...The medical evidence in the 'Whar
ton murder trial at Annapolis, renders it
so uncertain that General Ketchum died
from any but natural causes, that it seems
probable that the trial will result in the
acquittal of Mrs. Wharton. Chemical ex
perts for the defense declare that the tests
of the Conimonwealth's experts are unre
liable, while physicians give it as their a
pinion that he died of cerebro spinal men
ingitis, indentation .of the membranes of
the brain, and of the spinal cord. The
case shows that chemical science is not in
fallible, as experts tatly contradict each
other.

mar road by Chief Engineer, Joseph
Mifflin._After_hearing the statements of
both companies and a free enterchange of
-views, the subscribers to stock proCeeded
to determine with which of the two roads
they would connect. The vote was u
nanimously in favor of the Miramar road.
We thinkthis action was wise. Although
it will require a few thousand dollars
more to make the connection with the
Miramar, it gives a more direetandshort
er route to Harrisburg, thus saving ton
nage, besides being on the line of possible
future extention southward. A definite
survey of the route will be made about
the middle of January. We understand
that only 98,000 are needed to ensure the
completion of• the enterprise. C;

to awaken cittzens and our authorities es
pecially to a sense of duty in this rpect.
Should a fire at this season break out in
a more densely populated portion of our
town we would be without the means
with which to stay its progress. - No time
should be lost in procuring a good En

AT WORK.-Our Railroad Committee
having pretty generally canvassed the
town, are now at work in the country, and
we are pleased to learn that so far they
have succeeded beyond their expectations.
The indications are that they will suc

scription. Without individual subscrip
tionsa railroad is out ofthe question, and
no one able to subscribe can consistently
refuse to do so. Farmers should bear
in mind the ',alum that "competition is
the life of business." More railroads
make cheaper freights and better prices
for produce of all kinds.

usual pleasures and anxieties ; and we
wirdh you all a happy and prosperous year ;
but in order that it-mad-- be such, it is
necessary to labor to that desirable end.
In every noble undertaking or desired
benefit, we need work—honest, earnest
work. With the hope of contributing
something to our educational advance

of friends of Education, I now consent to
contribute both original and selected ar
ticles to this journal, on the subject of
common education.
Our excellent peeple of Waynesboro',
and the surrounding community should
be more interested in the education or
our youths. There are many good schools
in the State, and there is no reason why
we should not enjoy educational facilities
here s equal to any elsewhere. We are
not behind in Agriculture, Manufactur
ing or Commerce, and we need not be be
hind in Education. Our public and se
lect schools need patronage and encour
agement. Teachers neecLencouragement
in their responsible positions of trust and
self-sacrificing labor to educate the youth.
Scholars need encouragement in their
studies, and everything that pertains, to
there life at school. Let it be known
_that _you are interested-in—the—education
of your children. Our earnest co-opera
tive sympathy should be employed to
make this year one of higher attainments
for ourselves and greater utility to others

youth ; send him to good .schools ; sur
