I.ETTER FROM ItEV. I. WILSOS. Brookside, X. J., Aug. 23d, 1876. Ed. Register : Many friends in Albany requested ns to write as soon as we reached home, and with your permission I will do so through the Register. Our trip on the steamer to San Francisco was exceedingly pleasant. Old ocean was unusually quiet, and we were always ready for our meals when the appropriate hour arrived. By request of the Captain, I preached twice on Sabbath to an attentive congregation. Mr. Suclier, well known in your city, was among the passengers, and requested me to say to the Albany people that "the old man got through all right ; that he never expects to see Albany again, and bids them all farewell." After a tev days repose and enjoyment among our friends in San Francisco and Oakland, we started on our way rejoicings Terrible Accident. Near Jefferson on Monday last, a team driven by Mr. Jabez Terhune ran away, upsetting the wagon, throwing Mr Terhune out and the wagon upon him. one of the hubs, it is supposed, iji iking l.un in the back. After a thorough examination Wednesday, his physician, Dr. Smith, pronounced Mr; Terhune's wounds incurable, and that he can survive but a lew days. We have since learned that Mr. Ter hune passed away on Wednesday. W. B. Carter, Es-j.. of the Corvallls Ga zette, and his estimable wife, came down on Tuesday evening" last. After a fraternal call on Western Star Idge. I. O. G. T., the object of their visit to the city, they 'return! home the same nigh. The intense itching caused by certain diseases of the skin is speedily allayed by and id a short time found ourselves lip in Glenn's Sulphur Soap, which entirely re the mountains, breathing the fresh, cool ! moves every species of eruption, is per air, and astonished at the beautiful rind j fecilyaie. and fir cleaner and more effect- Panorama. Prof. White's panoramic views ot scenery in the great and wonder ful National Park, exhibited tit the Opera H House Tuesday evening, did not draw the crowd such an entertainment should. The lecture of Prof. White,- which was a de scription of the country as he saw it in "72, was most vivid and entertaining. As an elocutionist: the Professor has few if any equals on this coast.- Mr. Glenn added to the attraction of the occasion by singing several beautitnl songs. No time to write advertisement this week.

Ridge"wny, who handles the ribbons over the route from Lebanon to Sweet Homo, coming down trom the latter -place on Saturday last, on tlie new road between Nye's and Ames' creek, discov ered a little two-year old child right in the road, up to its armpits in the mud. The child was attended by two hound pups, and the indications were that the pups had done their best to extricate their little mas ter from his perilous situation. Ridgeway pulled the little fellow out, and conveyed him to the nearest house, Mr. Clement's, where the little fellow was washedLnp.Jiud inquiries set on foot to ascertain the pa rents of the child. From the point where the little babe was found, it was a mile and a half to the nearest house, going toward Sweet home. No one in the neighborhood recognized the child. We have learned since the above was written that the pa rents have been found. giand scenery around us. But I need net tell the readers ot your paper about the wonderful mountains, beautiful plains, and all the interesting scenery along the way. as most of them are more familiar with those things than I am. Suffice it to say we all enjoyed the journey very much, and reached our friends and relatives in Michi gan sate and well. Corn looks good in Michigan but the wheat crop was not as large as usual. In New Jersey the weather lias been exceed ingly hot and dry.- There is an unusually large crop of peaches, and they are very cheap, selling for 23 cents per basket about 50 cents per bushel.

Thousands of men are out of employment, and the coming winter, it is team, will be one of great suffering among the poor. We have been enjoying ourselves at the canipmeeting, near Denville, .N.J. What a wonderful change in these meetings! llow different from what they were thirty or forty years ago I The oltl-tashioueu enmptneeting, so memorable in the history of thousjiiids throughout the country, is rapidly giving way to modern improve ments. Instead oi the plain tents, neat and beautiful cottages have been erected, and in many places stores and hotels have befn built to accommodate the thousands who gather annually tor worship in the wood and by the sea-side. .Yet irt many respects the esmpmeetings remain the same. The glorious hymns our fathers and mothers loved to sing, tnnll our hearts, and the same blessed Gospel which inspired their souls and made them happy, flllsand comforts our hearts. It is to oe hoped that these pleasant gatherings will multiply and spread everywhere, and continue to be what they have b;eu in the past, a great blessing to the Church and the world.
