Progressive euchre, which has become quite a popular social game, is much played the present winter. The prefix of the word 'progressive' to euchre has ne other significance than the manner a large party of euchre players progress from one table to another. The winning
parties advance from one table to
another until tbe head table ireached, and then they having made as many games as possible, go back to the lower table again to "pro
ensi" as before. A change of
partners should always take place
aftet leaving the head table. Tbe lady who wins the must game
during the evening is entitled to
the first prizo r favor, and like award is made to the mHt successful gentleman. The parties w!
win the most games at the he id table are considered as coming in for second 'favors, while those who
ernt tiio ifwal mmm at l,e talilfw ! the oul-hoUsus,
j . , ., l l ately, search was
during uk cv.eutu nre rwiuni iw
favors of the thin! class. Sometimes the first favors are bestowed
to those who make the nnt game at the head tablr, but this pian has
little merit, for however good piaye may be, a little. bad luck iu
getting cards wilt re-ult in throw
ing them to the foot. Winning of games at the first table, therefore.
is little more than a matter of
chance. First favors certainly should go as an incentive to good playing, and this is best determined by the whole number of plays dur
ing the v evening. Straight euchre
.should be played; that is with a full deck, barring he joker ami all other spots below the sevens. T'';-trt ziSS tunt witb are
the twos and Tours. With them properly used no mistakes can i
happen. Tbe best way to keep count of games is by the use of a card furnMaed each player, upon
which is printed as follows i Rama In fuU..... ConoMncad at table Ko....... ......... ......... Fioisbed at table Ko . Times at head table , .... Games won at head table.....

At the end of the playing these
learda may be collected ami there-
suit of the evening very readily determined. Marking the table the player commenced at, the times he ban been at the head table, and tbe number of the table st tbe finish will necessarily correspond
with the whole number of games

The many friends and acquaintances of Hon. Wm. A. Montgomery of Gosport, were shocked upon learning last Tuesday of the suicide of that gentleman at his home, on the morning of that day. He had for several weeks exhibited evidences of derangement, and his family had ieen watching him to prevent him from making any attempt upon his Hie, as he had told an intimate friend that he could hardly resist an inclination to take his own life. He eluded the watchfulness of his family for a few mo
ments on the fatal morning, and
When search . was instituted he was
found hanging by the neck in his bam. A few pulsations of the heart were noticed after he was cqt down, and then all was ovei. Mr. Moutgooiery had been engaged in tbe practice of law and in private tanking for a number of years, uocuminulating a fortune estimated at $75,000 to 100,000. Mr. Montgomery was a genial, pleasant gentleman, seemingly in the bests

i to allow his name to be used, though
he reserved his -final answer till his return home. On bis return to Cincinnati, in answer to letter I had written him, urging him to permit bis election, he wrote to us that be felt that he ought not to "accept a pastorate where there would be a radical difference between the pulpit and the pew in the matter of political dissent." What we had asked him to do was to agree to "accept our pastorate," so we supposed his letter ended the
matter. But on tbe morning of
our congregational meeting we re
ceived a telegram from him saying:
"Can I he elected as a covenanter ?
Ifm I will go." The difficulty in his way before, as we. understand
it, was his desire to retain his cov
enanter belief and practice, and
we interpreted this to mean that if
he could retain as an individual,
his distinctive doctrine and usage, he would accept. Without opportunity to communicate with him further, we elected him. He now writes that he cannot leave the
