signed for exhitnVon at the coming State
Fair at one half tV usual rates. Full fare
will be charged its delivery and it will be

erful incentive to xhibitors'of all kinds to
send on their live stock, poultry, agricultu
ral implements, produce, manufactured ar
ticles, in fact, anything and everything that
will add to the general interest of our State
Fair. Ample accomodations have been pro
vided for tue exhibi tinn nf all kinds of ar
ticles, and every artiele sent will be well
cared for by those having the matter in
hand, and evervthilrig indicates that this will
prove tbe mosi'smlceisful Fair ever held in

Anotheb Ercptios. Mt. Vesuvius like
the Mercurial establishment, is just now ex
periencing another eruption. Having re
ceived financial aid from tlw Lord knows
where it ban suddenly resolved to publish
i dailv, and tho first copy of this series ap
peared last evening. How long this erup
tion will last it is hard to tell. It may not
last longer thau tlie time needed to kettle
tlie senatorial question. Or it may last un
til after the (State fair, and perhaps it may
not pass in its checks until after tbe Legis
lature adjourns. We cannot predict its
longevity further. It is great on spasmodic
efforts, and not accountahla for its demise
at anv date. It looks as natural as ever,
and its local columns are well tilled with
State and Territorinl news. Its carrier was
taken aeriouslv ill last evening, and the de
livery by small boys was rather promiscu
ous. Wn.T rr meant. A large and euthusias- J
tic crowd aiseniblid in Iront ot the Che
meki ta Hotel yesterday afternoon, which,
on inquiry, we" found "to be a political dis
cussion between a couple of members of the
lower House and a worthy divine of our
city. All hands seemed very much excited,
and spectators were rreafly amused. The
divine seemed to have rather more on his
hands than he could attend to, and on our
arrival a sympathetic friend was leading
niin off bv the arm.

the Grand Lodge officers during recess
in granting warrants for the Institu
tion of subordinate Lodges in Germany
was continued. The report of lite

ed sum as dues and and relieve a mem
ber from further obligations during his

A Void Corner In Wnll fctreet.
XkwYouk. Sept. 17. The situa
tion of Wall street this morning was
alarming. TiieCennaris held ou tena
ciously to the Erie corner and the
Smith & (Jiiuld party were eager for
another fray. They had calculated ou
the condition of the importing interest
and found that the squeeze in gold
brought down some of the heaviest im
IMirters iu the city. They had estimat
ed the resources of the Treasury De
partment and felt certain the Secretary
could not come to the relief of the
street. Tliere came indications that
the Treasury Ivpartmetit would not
remain passive, and at noon the offer
ings of bonds opened at the Treasury
were found to amount to nearly $r.
000,000, at lOJi rl 2,34. with more than
the usual promptitude. The annouce
ment was then made that the Secre
tary would take threee millions in
stead ot one million, as advertised,
which would indicate that tlie Secre
tary intends and is prepared to Sell
more than tbe advertised amount of
i;oM to-morrow, and thus aid iu break
ing the gold corner.
I'be eli'ect of these tactics was felt in
gold exchange, where prices suddenly
tell to ll."P4 the lowest of the day.
The rate of coin drnpcd to one ix
teenth er cent . against three-quarters
percent, this morning, and gold oper
ators breathed freely. Nothing more
than a running tiiibt could be kept up
in the money market.

the result of the Alabama Claims. Ar
bitration. The contest, iu his opin
ion, was not for dollars and cent, but
for tlie preservation ot amity between
the two countries, with a full and firm
maintenance ot national .dignity.
Those were the points contended for.
and tnese point's having been achieved
the nation should he satisfied.

A 'hiit4r from Mr. BcM-lior" "l'Ie
Lecture 011 I'rprtchlmj.""
It was my lot. at first, to Ik; plaeetl
in a village with a mere handful of in
habitants in one of the Western States.
1 eonceive it to lie one of the kindnesses
of Providence that I was seiit to a snuill
place. I bad but one male member in
the church, and 1 wishetl him out all
the time I was there.
I prai ticed public speaking from the
time of mv sophomore year 111 college.
I was addicted to going out and mak
ing temperance speeches, and holding
conference meetings, so tliat I acipiir
ed consideralile confidence, lx-ing nat
urally very dillldeut. When I went to
tbe seminary I still kept up that habit,
practicing wlienever I had the oppor
tunity. At the end of my three years'
seminary course six months of which
however, were diverted in editorial
work, a loss ottime to my studies which
was afterward made up I went to :t
small town in Indiana, the last one iu
the Stat" toward Cincinnati,on the Ohio
river. It had, erliaps, live or six hun
dred inhabitants. It had in it a Mctlt
odist. a Baptist, and this Presbyterian
church to which I went. The "church
would hold, perhaps, from 2o0 to 300
people. It bad 19 female members,
and tbe whole congregation could hard
ly raise from f 200 to '230 as a salary.
I took that Held ami went to work In
it.
Among the earliest tilings I did was
to beg money from Cincinnati to buy
side-lamps to bang up in the church, so
tliat we could have night "crviec. Af
ter U-iiig there for a mouth two I went
to Cincinnati again, ami collected mon
ey enough to buy hymn books. I dis
tributed them in tlie seats. Ilefore this
hymns had been lined out. I recollect .
oiie of the first strokes of management
I ever attempted in that parish was in
regard to those hymn books. Instead
of asking the people if they were will
ing to have them, I just put Ihe books
into tbe pews; for there are ten men
that will right a cliaiige alout which
they are consulted, to one that will
fight it w hen it lias taken place. I
simply made tbe change for tliem.
There" was a little looking up and look
ing around, but nothing was said. o
after that we sung out ol hooks. Then
t here was nobody in the chnrch to light
the lamps, and they could not afford' to
net a sexton. Such a thing was un
known in that primitive simplicity of
tliat lloosier time. Well, I unani
mously elected myself to be the sexton.
I swept out tbe church, trimmed the
lamps and lighted tliem. I w:i. liter
ally, the light of tbe church. I didn't
stop to groan about it, or nioetn about
it, but 1 did it. At first tlie men folk
thereabout seemed to think it was chaff
to catch them with, or something of
that kind; but I went steadily on with
the work. After a month or o two
young men. wlio were clerks in a store
"there, suggested to me tliat tliey would
help me. I didn't think I wanted any
help; it wa only what one mau could
do. Then tliey suggested throe or four
of us taking one month each, and iu
that way they were worked fii.
It was tlie "itest thing tliat ever hap
pened to them. Having something to
do hi tlie church was a means of grace
to them. None of them were Chris
tian voung men; hut I oMisnlted them
20.
about various things, and by and by I
brought a case to them. '-Here is a
young man iu great danger of going
the wrong way and losing his soul.
What do you think is the best means
of getting at him?" It made tliem
rather sober and thoughtful to be talk
ing about tlie salvation of tluit young
nail's soul, and tlie upshot was tliat
they saved their own. They very soon
afterward came into tbe spirit, and
were converted, and became good
Christian men.
Now, while I w.-is tliere, I preached
the best sermons I knew how to get
up. I remember distinctly tliat every
Sunday night I had a headache. I
went to bed every Sunday night with
a vow registered that I would buy ft
farm and "quit tlie ministry. If I have
said it once I liave said it "live hundred
funis, that I sjxiilt a good farmer to
make a poor minister.
I said H grcilt many extravagant
things in my pulpit, and preached
with .1 great deal of crudeuess. I
preached , a great many sermons,
which, after six mouths, I would not
have preached again. I frequently
did as many young men do. shaped
into .1 general truth that which was
truth only under certain circumstances
and with a xrtain class of people.
I was a great reader of I he old ser
nionizers. I read old Robert South
through and through ; I saturated my
self with South ; I formed inuvhot my
style and my handling of texts on his
methods. I obtained a vast amount of
instruction and assistance troin others
of those old sermonizers. who were as
familiar to me as my own name. I
read barrow, Howe, Sherlock, Butler
and hd wards particularly. I preached
a great many sermons while reading
these old men : and upon tlieir ui
courses I often founded tlie framework
of my own. After I had preached tliem
I said to mvself. -That will never do :
I wouldn't preach that again for the
world." P.ut I was learning, and 110
lxidy ever tripped ine up. I had no
iWrd of Elders ready to bring me
buck to orthodoxy. I had lime to sow-
all my ministerial wild oats, and with
out damage to mv people, tor they
knew too little to know whether I was
orltoilox r not. And it was. gener
ally, to tlieir advantage, liecause peo
ple are very much like tishes. Whales
take va quantities of water into their
mmitlis tor the sake ol the aniniacul.'e
it contains, and then blow out the wa
ter, whil; keening in the food. Peo-
pk: do pretty much the same. They
don't believe halt that vou sat. The
part tint is nutritious they keen, and
tlie rest tticv let alone. lluseanv
ministerial training does not hurt
tliem. but it is invaluable to a voung
111.111 who is getting the bearing ot his
new station and learning how to han
dle tlr ship that God has given him to
sail.

In the V. S. Marine Hospital where exten

It tins also lieen proven In the same hos

dy Tor all diseases of the Kidneys, Bladder
and ITtinarv Canal, and many eases were
