THE KED WIG “And Fanny," said the pretty Mrs. Mel lison, a beautiful young widow of twenty live concluding a series of directions to Inr confidential waiting-maid, if Mr. Thomas Tompkins calls, you may show him up.” “The red haired one asked the wait ing maid, with infinite scorn. “Vos, Fanny, the gentleman with au burn hair. Show him up directly. But if his cousin Ilenry asks for me, I am not at home.” “I hate to tell him so," said the wait ing maid. “Why Fanny! Have you any consci entious scruples about saying I am not at home?” "O dear, no ma'am! I'd .just as lieve say you're gone to ltoxbury, on a visit to your relatives, and wouldn't be back for a week it's my duty ma'am. But I hate to disappoint such a nice, pretty-spoken, dark-haired, genteel young gentleman, as Mr. Ilenry.” “How much has been given you to ad vocate his cause, Fanny?” “Not a penny, ma’am. I’d have you know I scorn a bribe. I have never seen the color of his money, and don’t know whether he is rich or poor. But l declare it's a burning shame, and everybody says so. to see that young gentleman a wastin’ away like a taller candle in a con sumption, and you always a snubbin’ of him, at the same time you’re affordin’ every encouragement to that stupid, red haired, ordinary chap—his cousin. There! I've spoke my mind, ma’am, and I feel re lieved, even if you dismiss me the next blessed minit. O ma’am you’re rich and independent, now, why, since you've made up your mind to marry again—don’t you take up with Mr. Henry's offer? He's -o sensible, and sprightly, and so hand some." .uore reason wnv you snouiun i marry i lump of ugliness," saiil Fanny. “You didn’t know the late Mr. Melli -hii said his relict. "No ma'am." ••Well, I'll tell you a secret. He was master of the house, Fanny." “Well ma'am, and wasn’t that right?” "lie ruled me rigidly, Fanny, and I got shockingly tired oi obeying orders like a private in a marching regiment. So 1 made up my mind when I married again hat I would marry a man whom I could •tile. Now Mr. Thomas Tompkins is just he sort of person 1 was looking for; he is ill gentleness and docility. Do you uu lerstand me now “Yes’ni” said Fanny, sulkily, dropping i sarcastic courtesy. “And 1 wisli you uy of your bargain. A nasty, red-haired hing she added, as she banged out of the room and slammed the door behind her. Tin* echo of her exit had hardly died iwuv when the door opened and the ele gant Henry Tompkins made his appear ance. “Y'ou hear?” exclaimed the widpw, in a marked tone of displeasure. “Yes, Maria, replied the young man, firmly. "I knew you were at home, aud 1 braved your anger for the sake of seeing Vim once more, of knowing your final de cision.” •T reject your offer, sir,” said the lady decidedly, “with many thanks for the honor. I have already bestowed my hand m your cousin.” ••It is well for him he is my cousin, otherwise—” “Sir! This is not a tone to use in my presence,” said the widow you have no right to employ it. Retire, and when you are in a better temper, perhaps 1 may re ceive you as a friend." “Maria,” said the young man, "may you never have occasion to regret your course. Adieu! May you he happy.” And within it trusting himself with further words lie retreated from the presence of the wid owed beauty. •Tie is \erv handsome and accomplish ed." sighed the lady. “If lie had remain ed live minutes longer, my eyes would lia\e betrayed my admiration. Wliat a pity lie lias a will of bis own The person who next entered, after a long interval, was the favored suitor. He was dressed in shocking bad taste, but the crying sin of his appearance was his un fortunate le ad of hair. Yet he seemed proud of his “burning shame,” for he wore it long and curled, and frequently ran his fingers through it, as he glanced at its startling brilliancy rclleeteil in the huge mirror. So you’ve come at last,” said the wid ow severely. m "Yes’in,” answered the favored suitor, i cry timidly. "I'm behiud tiiuc’m but 1 had to wait'm." “Wait, sir? Where have you been?” •TiarlierVm,” said the terrified youth, casting another surreptitious glance at the mirror. ••nave you arraugeu your warurooc ior the approaching ceremony?” asked the widow. “Yes’m, and l hope you'1 like'em blue coat, bright buttons yellow vest bull ker sevs. pumps and bowknot ribbons in 'em.” "Ridiculous said the lady, imperious ly. “Countermand the order. You must lie dressed in black.” “Yes'in. yes'in," answered the bride groom, with hurried emphasis. "I'm going out in the carriage, now, a shopping,'' said the lady, “and 1 want you to go with me.” 'Yes'in, certainly—happy—proud—dear Maria!" the last words came out with a jerk and were received with a frown. “King that bell,” said the lady. Mr. Thomas Tompkins jerked the bell so nervously that the handle came off. He ceiled a severe reprimand for his awk wardness, Fanny answered the bell and was directed to tell the coachman to har ness but she came back to say that the coachman swore that he wouldn’t go out again, as he'd been out twice already that morning. “This it is to be a'poor lone woman!’' said the lady, bursting into tears. “Send him up here, Fanny.” John soon made his appearance, lie was a burly Englishman, and evidently fond of strong beer. “Shall I remonstrate with him, Maria?” asked Mr, Tompkins very timidly. “Remonstrate!” repeated the lady, with a scornful smile. “If you had the spirit of a man—” “I thought you didn’t like spirit!” said Mr. Tompkins. “There are occasions sir,” said the widow but her mortification cut short her utterance. “My dear fellow,” said Mr. Tompkins tothe coachman,surlily. “When I drive for you, yon can give me your ad vice. I alters look to my employer.” “Then why didn’t you obey my or ders?” asked the widow. “Cause I ain’t a nigger—a blackamoor,” answered the coachman, surlily, “and flesh and blood can't stand your goings on.” “O, if Henry were here!” said the widow. “Fire and furies!” shouted Tompkins, pulling off his red wig and flinging it in the face of the coachman. “What do you mean, scoundrel, by speaking in that man ner? You are dismissed, ao you hear? and leave the room instantly!” “Not for the likes of you,” answered the coachman doggedly. The next moment he lay sprawling up on his back, by a stunning blow scientific ally planted midway between his organs of vision. Not liking a repetition of the same, the coachman picked himself up, and retired in dismay. “What does this transformation mean?” asked the widow, gazing in astonishment at the dark locks of her belligerent de fender “Simply this," was the reply, "that Thomas Tompkins and Henry Tompkins are the same. You wanted to marry an imbecile; I determined to make such a character ridiculous, and have, therefore, thanks to liogle, been playing the assumed part. Yet, dear Maria, I will take no un due advantage of you; and if you are afraid to marry a man, I’ll resign my claims in favor of the ftext blockhead you discover.” “There is my hand,” said the widow, blushing. “1 am satisfied. But was Fan ny in the plot?" “Necessarily; but this is the only matter she ever deceived you in.” So the widow married a second man of spirit; but lie was no tyrant, and the house hold authority was amicably shared be tween them. "The coachman, wonderfully improved by having a tight master, was retained in his place, and never ventured to refuse to harness, “because,” as he as sured a crony of his, who drove a pea green-cab, “Mr. Tompkins was a wonder fully hard hitter!” ORGANS MELODEONS Messrs.

Jlailg Jumukr Journal AUGUSTA. SATURDAY MORNING. OCT. 20. 1870. POLITICAL. The Young Democracy of Xew York haTe nominated Judge Ledwith for Mayor, and he will receive considerable republican support. Tammany put on its war paint Thursday night. The telegraphic despatches told a grim truth (by accident) when they said the demo cratic speakers exhorted their hearers to “prevent the purity of the suffrage.” About four thousand troops have been sent to New York to be at hand in case of distur bance at election, and Attorney General Akerman has visited the city to put in motion the legal machinery to prevent fraud at the ballot-box. THE SOUTH CAROLINA BUTCHERY. I The despatches which have been pub lished of the recent call upon the Presi dent for troops to protect the loyal people of South Carolina, give but little idea ol the terrible state of things which occasion ed the demand for troops. Enraged at their defeat in the late election, the rebel? took arms which had been prepared, and slaughtered the most prominent of those opposed to them, and threaten to plunge the State into civil war. A Washington paper gives the following particulars: On Snndsy evening last Senator Itobertson of South Carolina arrived here, having been deputed bv Governor Scott to lay before the President the facts in relation to a massacre of Union men which took place in Laurens county on Thursday last, and to ask for the interposition of the strong arm of the govern ment to prevent further butchery by the “Reformers.” The Senator left South Caro lina on Saturday, and on Sunday last so threatening was the aspect of adairs that the Governor dispatched a delegation, consisting of State Treasurer Niles G. Parker, State Audi tor Tomlinson, and Mr. C. P. II. Ripley, to also call upon the President and nrge upon him the necessity of at once ordering that troops be sent to the disturbed portions of the State. Tbe Governor represents that as many as sixty persons were killed by the “Reformers" st, and in the vicinity of Laurens court-house, on Thursday Iasi, and fears that u repetition of the slaughter will occur to-day, as tiiis is the time fixed for counting the votes, and the “Reformer*” have given out that the Republi cans elected will not, under any circuuistan- ces, be restored to power. The attack of the “Reformers” at Laurens court-house was 1 made on the 20th instant, the day utter the election, and was prompted by the conviction that they had been fairly defeated at tbe polls by the Republicans. About 700 stand of arms were seized, and sixty persons killed, among i them being Hons. Wade Perrin, colored, and Joseph Crews, white, and both members of the Legislature, and Volney Powell, son of Judge Powell of Ohio. Assistant Assessor Everson was pursued, and barely escaped with his life. He was saved only by the use of a aecret sign of distress, and even then was forced to travel to Columbia on passes fur nished him by his rebel captors, lie lias an nounced hi* intention of never returning to bis pest of duty us United States Assessor at Anderson. The condition of affairs in South Carolina U truly appalling, and cannot be exaggerated, j and we are sure, lrum the representations j made n* by thoroughly responsible parties, that unless the Government interferes at once the State will be plunged into civil war. As the militia ii composed mainly of colored men, i, and as the State authorities have been warn ed that if they attempt to send them to i Laurens the railroad will be torn up and the troops attacked and overpowered by thousands of well-armed ex-confederates, tbe necessity of United States troops is apparent. The preservation of the peace of the State is de manded by every consideration, and we are confident that a deaf ear wll not be turned to the appeal of Governor Scott for the immedi ate presence of United States troops in South Carolina. METEORIC EXPLOSION. Worcester county, Mass., is considerably excited over a meteoric explosion which took I piece therein last Sunday morning. The Worcester Spy says it was even set down as i another earthquake by many of the residents of Hampden county. The shock occasioned by the explosion was felt very generally at fifteen minutes before seven o’clock Sun day by the people of Brookfield- North Brookfield, West Brookfield, Warren, New Braintree, Hardwick and several other towns i in that vicinity. In New Braintree Riid North and West Brookfields the explosion j was so pereeptlble that it shook the farm houses as if some member of the family in chamber had jumped suddenly out of bed; and those who were so fortunate as to get a sight at the uncommon spectacle describe it as looking as large as the moon at full, before it burst with a loud report, and left a train of smoke in the sky. The meteoric remains are claimed by several towns, but the majority of those who saw it agree that either the north ern portion of West Brookfield or the town of New Braintree is the landing-place of the brilliant visitor to earth A correspondent describes the meteor as follows:—“It was apparently as large as the sun at his rising, and springing from the Dip per, it described an arc from northeast to southwest, at an angle of To degrees above the horizon. Its color is described as that of iron at white heat, with vivid vari-eolored scintillations, and leaving in its wake a lumin ous tsain about three or four degrees in width, which remained for some fifteen seconds. Its brilliancy was especially astonishing, as the sun was some ways above the horizon, it ex ploded finally in a sharp detonation, scatter ing its brilliant fragments in all directions, each of which also burst in rapid suc cession. Its smoke hung like a cloud for several seconds more, emitting Hushes of light, and then gradually faded into air. The most singular feature of this phenomenon was its physical effect in producing a heavy, dis tinct rumbling, like a distant rockblast, or echoed cannon shot, which was heard more plainly in houses than without.” The Argus regrets that the State horse fair at the Forest City Park, Portland, Thursday, wae a failure. Very few animals were present and the attendance was very small, gt race for horses that never beat 2.38, for 0100, was won by Brown Nathan against Snowball and Dagon. Best time 2.41 1-2.

Having ravaged Barcelona it has i spread to Alicante, and is now feared in Cadiz. Another hurricane has swept over the coast of Florida and Cuba. Six vessels were j wrecked in the harbor of Key West and great damage was caused to the shipping in Ha vana. Judge Ingraham of New York decided that a verbal agreement boiyid the Manhattan In surance Company to pay a policy of $5000 on the steamer Sheridan, wrecked while the ex ecution of the papers were in progress. The steamer Morro Castle was disabled on the 21st on her passage from Havana to New York, but succeeded in bringing her passen gers in safety to New York. The Northern Pacific railroad is completed to Santa Rosa. Nearly five thousand immigrants arrived at New York last week. M.

In the Wiswell murder case, Worcester, Mass., the Coroner's jury rendered a verdict that Benjamin Wiswell came to his death by the hand of his brother-in-law, Doran. A man has been sentenced to imprisonment for life in Ohio, for placing obstructions on a railway track. The Court of Appeals of New York has de cided that it is an actionable offence for an old school physician to call a homceopathist a quack.

Everybody will be glad to learn that the fa mous astronomical clock in the great Stras bourg Cathedral escaped injury during the re .•ent bombardment. There has been considerable excitement in Richmond money market circles, caused by he suspension of two prominent banking louses. The Hollywood Memorial Association of firginia has adopted a resolution recommend ng that the fourth Sunday in November he et aside as a day of mourning throughout the louth for Gen.

Many of the Prussian soldiers wear under leath their shirts a piece of sole-leather, about oil inches square, which is iiard enough to urn a bullet, unless struck perpendicularly, ind is a good defence against the lance or abre.

To the Editor of the Kennebec Journal: This bears date some sixteen hundred miles from the place where my last was written,and the change in the manners and speech of the the people is equally as great as the distance, and if an occasional phrase slips in here that is not familiar, you can attribute it to a weeks sojourn in this beautiful country where last year they raised corn “right smart" and had a “heap left,” but a better crop is now stand-

ng. Our route took us through the State of 111 tnd the whole distance an both sides one .ould see only a continuous corn-field. We were informed by a fellow passenger, that the crop in 111. alone will amount to two hun dred million bushels. This seems like a fish i story, hut let one ride thruue'h the immense corn-fields of that state, and the estimate will not seem large. We passed the farm of one Mr. Alexander which embraces sixteen thous and acres, and as a sample of his farming I will mention one little incident. A young man wanted to hire out to shook corn, and was hired by Mr. A., whom he in formed that he wanted a job that would last four or five weeks, asking how much he had. “Twenty-four hundred acres,” responded Mr. A., “and when that is out you can get a job with some of my neighbors.” Mr. A. made a contract with the Toledo,Wa bash, Lakesbore N. York Central ltailroads to send his cattle to the N. York market, promising to send seven car loads daily, and has met his agreement. The roads have of fered him a hundred thousand dollars for the contract, but he wont give it up. He buys and sells by telegraph, has an office, and an operator on his farm. 13v his contract he can send cattle six dollars per head cheaper than other dealers. He is undoubtedly the great est farmer in the world,—the sixteen thous and acres in 111. nut comprising th whole oi his land. It is now quite rainy here, so that one has to keep the house or wade in mud. Josupb. Domestic XrUis. The Whig says the largest and most impor tant sale of timber lands ever made in this State, probably, was made Thursday, at City Hall, Bangor, by John 15. Foster, auctioneer, for the executors of the estate of the late Rufus Dwincl. The number of acres sold was nearly ICO.000 and were among the choicest timber lands in the State. The sale amounted to about $200,000. Among the purchasers were Hon. Henry K. Prentiss, J. P. Webber, Moses Giddings, Hon. S. 11. Dale, J. 11. Eveleth, J. M. Hodgkins, John Ross, S. J. Adams, lion. A.

The Belfast Journal says that recently, by vote of the Directors of the Belfast and Mooeehead Lake Railroad, Mr. Simpson, ol the Board, officially notified the directors of the Maine Central that the road of the former corporation would be ready for acceptance, under the contract, on tlte first day ol November. Judge Rice replied that a com mittee of the Maine Central Board, consist ing of Messrs. A. D. Lockwood, R. 15. Dunn. Abner Coburn and Geo. M. Patten, had been appointed to inspect the road, and would pro ceed to do so on Ihe fiist day of November. The cattle show at Madison Bridge is spoken of as a success. Anson, Starks and Madison had each a town team. T. 15. Fulton's farm was represented by a herd of 24 cattle and horses. The Hiltons and others contributed largely. Capt. E. M. Robinson performed the duties of Marshal very acceptably. Otis Hilton, John M. Hilton, John O. Hilton of Anson, and George Ladd of Starks, showed i some handsome pulling. The Age says the lyceum lectures in Bel fast the coming winter, are now so far arrang ed as to he a certainty. The course will be opened towards the close of November by a lecture from Hon. Win.

About sixty men are employed, and the amount of long lumber sawed each day approximates 34,000 feet; clapboards, 4,000; shingles, 20,000; laths, 12,000; broom-handles, 2,000,—besides other kinds. All of the saw-dust is conveyed on belts irom the saws into a miniature car, thence into a dump car, where it is taken di rectly to vessels; [the saw-dust amounts to about $100 per week. Instead of the olu way of filing saws there is a shop with a lull set of running stones for grinding; the man in charge of this grinds down a very large tooth, on a circular saw, to the proper shape, in less than one minute; ho informed our correspondent that this one tooth alone would have spoilt three good saw files and taken more than an hour to have brought the tooth into shape.

It is proposed to pay the same in lawful money of the United Males. Currency lias therefore been provided, and the Treasurer ol the Poitland and Kennebec Railroad Company, will pay the Bonds on presentation at his Office in Augusta. It is understood, however, that some holders may claim a payment in gold. While the Road j doe* not feel willing, in tho present condition ol affairs, to meet this elaiim it does propose to the holders, a liberal alternative, viz: to exchange for the maturing issue, a Bond which has like se curity, and which is in every way a first-class obli gation. This Company will give its “Consolidated Bond” at 83 cents, which will pay a liberal rate ol interest. The Coupons of this loan are payable semi-annually in Boston, free of Government tax; the rate is i; pet cent, on the thousand. By funding the maturing Bond in this new Se curity, a safe and conservative investment will be had on a Bond having twenty-live years to run, covered by a mortgage similar to that now protect ing the Town Loan. The Consolidated Bond was authorized by an Act of tho Legislature, January •>8, 1863, and is intended to embrace all the bonded Debt of the Road. Its legality has just boon affirm ed by a full decision of the Supreme Court of the state, and is now placed on an entirely substantial basis, and as such can be treated hy the holders. The exchange can be made at the Treasurer’s Office at Augusta; the Granite National Bank, An gusta; the First National Bank, Portland; ami the National Exchange Bank, Boston. But if any holders prefer to sell the Bonds due Nov. 1, 1870 for currency, cither of tho above banks will buy them. JOHN S. CUSHING, Treasurer, Portland and Kennebec Railroad Company.

ILocal ant> State Nctos. State Convention of V. M. C. A. SECOND DAY. The morning opened beautiful and bright. But very few of the large number in atten dance on the first day have left for their homes. There was a goodly gathering at the church at S o’clock, at which time a prayer and promise meeting was opened and conduc ted by Mr. Moody. The exercises consisted of repeating by those present of short pas sages of scripture containing the precious promises of God. Some of the passages were followed with brief comments. At least fifty individuals took part in the exercises which were of the most interesting character. At 9 o’clock the President called the con vention to order. The hymn was sung, com mencing “From every stormy wind that blows/’ Prayer was offered by Rev. A. L. Lane of Biddeford. The hymn was sung “Illest are the souls,” &c. New business was then taken tip. Mr. K. Sands resigned the office of Vice President, and C. M. Bailey elected to fill the vacancy. On motion of Mr. Burgess of Portland, the printing of the annual report in book form was dispensed with, as the meetings have been fully reported in ^ie Kennebec Journal. No tice wus given that members could obtain ex tra copies of the paper. Invitations for holding the State Cuuven- tion were received from Biddeford and Wa terville. The convention voted to hold their next annual meeting at Biddeford. Mr. Burgess of Portland, called on Mr. 1L C. Morse of New York, who described the objects of the Association Monthly, published in the interests of the Young Men’s Christian Associations. The delegates were recom mended to subscribe for copies oi the monthly as a great assistant in their work. Reports were received front several As^o ciations. David Cargill, President ol' the Augusta Association reported no special interest. 1 he debt has been cleared away by the generosity of friends, and there is now a small balance in the treasury. Four mission schools are sustained, and prayer meetings at rooms. Rev. Mr. Wellcome of Yarmouth, reported the condition of that Association. No spec ial progress has been made. Membership 4 Three prayer meetings in destitute places. Mr. Jones, President of Winthrop Associa tion, said that it was established in DOT. 28 male members; 2G females admitted to active membership. Hold weekly prayer meetings. N ew rooms dedicated in F'ebruary last. Meetings have been frequently liolden in Town Hall; prayer meetings held in eight or nine differant localities; 24 hopeful urn versions reading room and small library, provided by the ladies. Mr. 8. 8. Brooks of Augusta said the Win throp Association was doing more real work than any Association of its size in the State. Mr. Bailey of Winthrop testified to the good work being accomplished in South Mon mouth by this Association. Mr. F. L. Dingley made a supplementary report in regard to the work of the Auburn Association, giving some interesting details in regard to the manner of working. At 10 o’clock the convention proceeded to discuss the topic of cottage and neighborhood meetings, opened by II. E. Palmer of Bath. His Association had found these effectual agencies. It was one ol the first duties taken up by the Association. People are found very ready to receive the truth out in these neighborhoods. The deepest interest is mani fested by those in attendance. It is a good agency to help the young men to have confi dence in themselves to work in the social meetings. Mr. Storcr, of Yarmouth, related his ex perience in this class of meetings, ami spoke of the good results attending them. Rev. Mr. Fay 6aid the best results spring up from these meetings. He believed in this way of putting forth Christian effort. Camp Meeting John related in a humorous and most happy manner the experience he had had for 4o years in just this class of meet ings. Messrs. Sturtevant of Portland, .Iordan ot Auburn, Rev. Mr. lloyd of Bidileford, and Moody, closed the subject. Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Emerson, of Biddeford, and a hymn sung. The topic of ‘‘social gatherings" was taken up, opened by Mr. Dinghy, of Auburn. He was satisfied if we want to reach the souls of young men, we have got to reach their hearts make them understand we arc good fellows as well as good Christians. There is no better way to get acquainted with these young men than by means of social gatherings, made tree and inviting all to come. Provide something to eat, for some men's souls can be reached only through their stomachs. Mr. Morse, of New York, spoke of the ef fective agency of providing refreshment, adopted in Great Britian, and now being adopted with marked success in New York by the Association. We have always to bear in mind that men have bodies us well as souls. Mr. Moody thought we could become better acquainted with people at the tea or dinner table than elsewhere. Provide for them so cial gatherings, music, reading, and other at tractions. Acquaintance with Christian peo ple makes a young man respect himself. Mr. Chase, the President, said that these social gatherings had been tried in Portland with great success. This element can be used with greater power than now. Advocated the distribution of tickets of admission among all who would come. Wc have got to get these young men into our rooms. Mr. Bee said that in New York these meet ings were greatly blessed. Mr. Southworth, of Portland, spoke on the j subject, which was closed by singing the hymn, “IIow sweet the name of Jesus sounds.” The subject of the best method of raising funds was taken up, and dwelt upon at some length by Mr. Moody, and brought briefly to a practical issue by taking up a collection for the objects of the Convention, securing the j sum of $71,70. The interesting question drawer was open- ed, and a large number of questions found, which were duly answered by Mr. Moody. We give the questions and answers in brief: How is the social gatherings to be kept sub ordinate to the spiritual element'/ By spiritual inen attending them. Go with the same spirit that we seek when we attend the prayer meet ings. There is a social side to everything. What can be done to wake up a new inter est in the Associations throughout the States liaise money to send out missionaries to work to build up Associations, and start new ones. Send out your young men to work. llow can we make our prayer meeting* more interesting? Study to do it, and coiut with the true fire. What is the best way of reaching young men who are spending their tveuiugs in sa loons? By the same provisions already spoken of. Is it consistent for a Christian man to use tobacco? An injunction of God s word is op posed to this—“Abstain from all filthiness," and only one passage encourages a man in the use of tobacco—‘*lle that is filthy, let him bt filthy still.” How shall we conduct the cottage prayer meetings? Difficult to tell. Would advise those to take a part who are backward in the meetings of the church. Is it best to have any meetings outside ol the convention when the convention is in ses sion No; decidedly. One thing at a time. Two churches in a place, (there being three in all) giving up their Sabbath evening prayer meetings lor the sake of attending the Asso ciation meeting, hut the third church declining to do so, ought the Association to hold its Sabbath evening meeting at the same hour as that of the prayer meeting of this third church Didn’t know much about conflicts between the church and association. In his section there is work enough for all to do. Is there any objection to dancing—by mem bers of the Association—if well conducted? Don’t do much good to taik too much about it. We should plant truth sometimes instead of trying to uproot error. Bring the heart to decide the question between itself and God, and he had no question how it would be de cided. Why have so many Associations in this State failed to accomplish their work during the past year? Because the young men have not yet got the right idea of sustaining them. They are apt to get in debt, and that is almost always ta’al. Should a layman take a text when he -peaks in a school house or open air? By all means. Always have a mark to aim at. Should our Associations in small tov. n have Lectures, if so. how can it he done? Tin day of high-priced lectures is about past. Get up a course of home, free lectures, on practical and business subjects. How shall we remove tne bars that are be fore many of our churches, kci ping thv poor out? By making the house of God free. It you rent pews put tHe price so low that the poor can have a seat. Does not going into the ve try for sociables have a tendency to lessen proper respect f>r the house of God Not in the least. Who ever heard of a church wearing out? It K none too sacred a place in which to save soul and draw men to it. t an a man be a Christian and ride on Sun days? Yes, if he is about God's work. IK much preferred riding to walking. Mr. II. H. Burgess presented the follow ing report from the committee on delegates ASSOCIATIONS REPRESENTED. Augusta-David Cargill, Eugene Allen, S. S Brooks.

Skowhegan—l>ie, of Waterville, read se lections of scriptures and offered prayer. The hymn was sung ••stand up and bless the Lord." The topic “Our duty as associated youn;. men to the young men of the State," wai taken up. The discussion was opened by A. C. Palm er of Bath. He said the line of duty was t arouse herself and go j forth on her God-given mission. Christians 1 are not keeping pace with the activities of the world—they are employing but a fraction of the church.’ If the people will not reach the church, the church must go after and reach them. If this cannot he done by ordinary means extraordinary means should be resort ed to. The minister or the men of the church cannot do all the work. The oung Men’s Christian Associations are accomplishing much. Now add to these elements ot power the help that women can bring. They are fitted by nature to be ministers of truth to the despairing soul—to go into the houses of the people, the prisons, and dens of infamy and scatter the words of truth. They can utter words of truth and love that will find a lodg ment in the heart. The women of this day need a personal work. There is too much worldliness. We can hardly tell where the world leaves off and where the church begins. Mrs. Whitmire’s appeal was effective and most eloquent, and closed with the thought that women ask not for position in political life or in the pulpit, but the blessed privilege of working for Christ in the homes of the people. After singing and benediction, adjourned to evening. Evening. I lie convention met tor me closing exer cises nt 7 o'clock. After singing, a portion of scripture was recited by Camp Meeting John Allen. I’rayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Baker of Winthrop. The evening w as then given up to devo tional exercises. The house was crowded, and a spirit of devotion seemed to pervade the entire assemblage. Brief but fervent prayers were uttered, short but warm and earnest ex hortations offered, and sweet songs sung with the spirit and the understanding also. Cases of hopeful conversions were mentioned hy several. Twenty-five or thirty persons took part in the exercises. At the close ot' the devotional exercises Mrs. Whitmire again addressed the conven tion with great earnestness and eloquence on subjects which she discussed in the afternoon. A collection was taken up amounting to 37.49 tor the objects of the State Convention. Mr. Moody of Chicago then gave the clos ing address ot the convention, moving his auditors to tears during his earnest appeals. The President offered a few parting words, the customary resolutions for courtesies ex tended were passed, and a silent prayer offered of one minute, broken hy Bev. Dr. Ricker. At quarter to ten o'clock the exercises of the evening and the meetings of the conven tion closed, livery moment of time has been welt and profitably improved. The necessary business was arranged by the officers so ad mirably as to avoid interfering w it li the de votional exercises, which were of absorbing interest throughout. The members of the various associations and visitors came to gether with the expectation of receiving a blessing, and no one went away disappointed. The convention was largely attended, and it is the testimony of those that attended that it was the best convention ever held by the asso ciations. It will leave a deep impression upon the members, exert an influence for good in this community, and lead to the organization of new associations in places where they are not now established. Many pleasant ac quaintances were formed hy the members during their stay here widt h we trust may he lasting. On invitation of the proprietors of the Cony House, a prayer meeting was held in the dining hall of that hotel at ten o'clock last evening, conduct. d by Mr. C. SI. Bailey.

A letter from Gambetta says he at first sympathized with Germany, when she sought the overthrow of Napoleon, and lie sympa thizes with France because she has made herself a republic.

PARTICULARS OF THE SAD LOSS OF LIFE. Bath, Me., Oct. 28. The following are the particulars of the accident on the Bath train, Thursday. The train consisted of two box cars, next the en gine, followed by four flat cars, the baggage car and two passenger cars. A wheel on one of the flat ears broke, throwing the ear ofl‘ the track, and tearing up the track and sleepers. The baggage car, coming to the brake, had the under works torn ofi', and it was thrown endwise down the embankment some 30 feet. The lirst passenger car plowed its wheels into the sand, and remained upright on the embankment. It contained but four passen gers. The second car was heavily loaded, and was thrown over upon its side, all the passengers being thrown in a heap, upon the windows. The ear was badly used up, but the strangest thing is the fact that but few were seriously injured. Capt. E. C. McLoon, Bath, was badly cut about the head, but it is hoped not seriously; John Casican, Bath, scalp wounds, not seriously; Gilbert P. Pow ers, Bath, scalp wounds and leg bruised; Colman Flaherty, Bath, thigh and knee badly bruised; James E. Riggs, express messenger, Bath, scalp wounds, teotli knocked in and side bruised; Mrs. R. 1). Blinn, Wiscasset, slightly injured a daughter ot Wm. Plummer, Damariscotta, slightly bruised. Solon Cahill, brakeman, flesh wounds about the head and considerably hurt. Mr. Crawford was thrown into the air and had his back and one arm broken. It is sup posed that on feeling the shock he sprang to the platform to set the brakes and was thrown off when the car left the track. He had been acting as Conductor for some months, and Thursday was his lirst day in his old position, lie was a young man, widely known, and had not an enemy in the world. In the baggage ear with him was Hugh S. Tibbetts, of Bath, who had three fingers broken and his shoulder badly bruised. A special train came from Augusta in the evening with men to clear up the wreck. The track was so badly torn up that no trains could I pass till Friday. -•»—.---g FROM WASHINGTON. Washington. Oct. 23. There was a Cabinet meeting to-day. con tinuing for three hours, and attended by all tlie members. The time was occupied in dis cussing measures for the enforcement of elec tion laws in New York.
