"I never attended but oue Icmpcroncc
lecture," said our friend li with u fcu
liur rinllc, " I don't think I shull ever ul
teod uuotber."
"You probably found It dry !"
" Well, yes but that isn't it. The
lecture wus well enough, but I got into
such un awful icrupeafier it wus out, that
I never think of temperance meetings with
out a biiddtn shudder. I'll tell you about
it. It wus in Jersey city, whire I was
something of a stranger, und the night
was ooe of the worat of the seaton. Ho
real! bow it blew! It wus enough to take
your breath. Well, the lecture was over,
und making my way through the croud,
1 lingered la the doorway, contemplating
theuwful feeetie, when. somebody took my
urm.
"Where have you been?" said the sweetest
voice In the world. "I have Utu looking
for you everywhere."
Very much surprised, I turned rny head
and saw but I can't describe her i It
makes me mad to think how prodigiou.ly
pretty the was.
With her left hand she leaned on my
arm; she was arranging her nil with her
right, and did not notice my surprise.
"You haw been looking for uie," I falt
ered. -Come, let us be going," was lr reply,
pressing my arm.
A thrill went to my Imort. Vbnt to
rnuke of my lady's addrevs, 1 did not know;
but kite wus too charming a creature for
mo not to or company her. We ttaried off, nation by fucli u husband.
In the mHt f the ti'U)l, llie domm: of j Well. II -n," we cried, deeply Inter
bich jircifixttl uy conrcifcition. AtCted, fr we knew evtry wpnl of lngatory
length she fakl with u Kieain , wus trae, "Iujvv did you get nut of the
' i'ut you oi iu rouud me cr I (ball scrniie?"
"u!oh uty,n j
..
1 recti not describe to yoa my cnallon
mi I prcufctl lier tn my ride ond hurried on.
It wait very dark; nobody raw u, and ol
lonrluliertogtildomyrtepa, I follnwctl bcr
tnotloua tlirougli two or three abort Rtrtcli,
until ilic tlnpricd before mi elegant mansion.
"Hive ynu your key?" alio n'ked.
"My key," I stnmrneml; "tliirc innst be
some miMakc."
A lie opened tbe door, I stood waiting
to bid tier good night, or to Imvc some ex
planation, when, turning rjulckly, lie sntd:
" llnw qiiitr you net Hi nielli oln't you
comlt's In !'
Tbere was rnmctlilng very tcmptlnjy In
llic ur'g(Mlon. 'n I point' '"'
warm liouc and n pretty woman were cer
tainly obji-cti of consideration, and It wa
drcury lo llitnk of facing tbe storm uud
welntr lier no inoro.
It look tnc tliroc-qtinrtrr of n iccond to
make up my mind, nnd In I went. There
nu n dim liglitln the ball, and in taygiiide
ran rapidly up stalra, wby, I thought I
could do noililug belter tlinn run up too. I
followdl bcr into a very dark room.
"Lock the door, John," he ntd.
Now, aa If I bud been the only John in
the world, I thought ilic knew me. I fill
for llie key, and turned It In tbu lock with
out hcrllullon, woiiderliig nil tbu while
wlmt was coming; next. Then an uivful
sufplciou ol some horrid trick llaibrd
ncroM my mind, for I have oltt ti beard of
infuluuttd men Ix-lng; lured to their de
struction by pretty women, and I wo on
the point of re opening the door, when my
lady struck n light. Then, being on ex
ceaihely modest man I dicovered to my
dl'inoy that I win In a ltl-rnom! alone
with a woman in n bed room I I cannot
describe my Mwnllor.i, I said something;
I don't know what it was, but the lady
llghtid her lump, looked, slured at me on In
stant, turned i-s white ai u pillow caee, and
tcrcamed:
"Who orr you! How came you here?
Oo, quick; leave the room. I I thought
ynu were my hunbandl" nnd covering her
face with her handj, she sobbed hyiteri
cully. I was iiclri(ied. Of course I was quite
as anxious to leave us she was to havu me.
Hut. In my confu.lon. Instead of going nut
at the door I catnc In, I unlocked uuolher
the door und walked into a uloKt.
Ilefore I could rectify my error there
came a thundering at the flrt door. The
lady tercamed; the noUe IncreuH-d; and I
felt peculiar, knowing very well (but now
the lady's rcul husband was coming, uud
that I was In ruther a bad II x.
Well aware that It would not do In re
main In the closet, and oonvined of the
danger of meeting u man who might full
Into the vnlger weakness of being jealous,
I was trying to collect my tcullered wiim-u
in tho darkness; when the ludy whispered
to me In a wild manner
"What shall I do? if jou do not go he
will kill me."
'Ob I but consider "
The thundering at tLu door drowned her
voice. Kbe flew to open the door. As
the wrathful husbjnd burst Into the room.
I thought I felt a little sold, nnd crept un
der some garments hanging In the cloet.
The gruff voice raved ond stormed
Othello was Jeatou and revengeful; Drsde
mona Innoaut nnddislreiwd then I heurd
ominous sound;, us of eouie one lucking
under the bed,
I know l.e Is here, I suw him come
Into the house with yon You locked the
do-or! I'll hate his heart out.
"Jleurmel hear me I Twill explain!"
As I wus listening very attentively for
the explanation, the garmeuta under which
I wui coocealed were quietly lifted, tnd
fancy wy ftelings, dlicomcd In juch n sit-

In danger perceiving nt n glance that

course he ndoptetl in the recent pnllltcal
campaign In Ohio, In opposing Ynllamllg

which he slated that thlt wna the first

any portion of his flock hud been dis
pleased with him, he Mid:
" He hud' voted npnltin tho Democratic

that raid would lie Invited, ihc parallel of

Tlit may all have been fancy,' sr.ld the
speaker, 'but It was my hnnrat opinion,
and who In (nd' name could nk mc lo

anarchy and atrocity ?' Applause. In
continuing his remarket lie, speaker went
on lo say that we must tint, cannot have n
divided empire. A short timu slnco I'ugh
had raid tn him that the people of thu
South might permit our steamboats to
traverse tho Mississippi river, hut lhat
Ihey would never Irude with us, und it
would bu In vain to endeavor to make them

iiurt he could see argument In this. The
question was one nf right, not of t-xedi
eucy, and, for one, he wus determined to
woik for nnd pray for the right, until, with
the blessing of Cod, it wus extnhliidicd In

had heard that among n large nuniUr of
our laboring men there were apprehensions
that If the tluven weru liberated Ihey

wui impossible. He hud ulvtuya wished to

A SATinr: oh Ittaitur HorKtxa Tho
Idlers of llishop Ilnpkla ol Vermont, ar
guing that slavery Is supported by the III.
ble, hare provoked n great deal of criti
cism. Probably the best sutlrii which has
been directed ngnlust tho llishop is con
tained In n pamphlet entlllnl u lliblo Views
of Polygamy." Tho writer eledlcutea his
book to the IlUhnp, remarking :
"An ndmlrcr, likoynnrseir, of llio hull.
tuliom of old, I should hardly Imvc dnrvd
to declare then Iruth In n pcrverro and
self-glorifying generation had I not U-en
tmholdeued by tho example nf one who so
worthily wear the hlgliesl honors of tho
Church. In constrncthg my nrgiimcnl,
therefore, n I have done, with paragraph
after puragruph of your very words, It hat
been because I felt it necessary to shield
myself behind your uuthorily from tho
charge, which Ignorant presumption mlylit
elso Imvc brought, of irreveieully trave.ly
Ing tho Word of Uod."
The writer goes on tn construct minrgu
incut In prove tho lawfulness of polygamy,
following the llishop' reasoning on tho
slavery question, and shows Unit, although
practiced by Jacob, David, Solomon nnd
other llihle worthies, )ct the sacred vol
uiiiu nowheru condemni tho citMom; and
further, lhat while It wui In full existence
among the Jews during his sojourn on
earth, the Suvlor never uiluded toil, lluu
lucltly approving this " eculinr institu
tion," while Bt, Paul also liifetentlully uu
lliorlied It, He, therefore, contrndj that
polygamy ban the sanction of tho II. bio.
In conclusion, he thus exclaim ugulnst tho
bigotry of those who denounce polygamy.
"Thus the mistaken bigotry of Ibo com
munity, acting through the lline-servlug
pliancy of politicians, hai disfigured our
statute books with luws which place u bun
