It is no wonder that there is a waning of pure and undcfiled religion in this town when such performances are carried on under the sanction of the church as was imposed upou tlie public at Music hall two nights of last week. 1 am not finding fault with the entertainment but with the church for the sacrifice of its dignity.
If the church is worth anything it is worth everything but to resort to questionable inear.s to raise money for the church is like serving the devil to get money for the preacher.
One of the strangest features of the entertainment was old, gray-headed men making fools of themselves by personating characters in a novel that never had an existence except in the fertile brain of the novelist.
While such tlnugs contiuue to lie tolerated or even sanctioned by the church Christianity will tie at a low ebb aud the Christianizing of the world will go on slowly, while the thoughtless and gay will go on iu their revelry and vice, pointing tlie linger of scorn and contempt at those that preteiuL.to be Christians but are not.
Some of the many church members who made themselves so conspicuous ju llillt licit tious farce are great sticklers for the teachings and practices of tlie primitive church.
How can such go-between church members consistlenlly condemn theater going, dancing, or any other kind of doubtful entertainments, no matter How questionable, when they themselves are guilty of such rash inconsistencies. Shame on such moral religion!

Here is a specmen of tlie silly gush sent for.li from Washington City to a Cincinnati paper, describing tlie costume worn by a lady at the inauguration ball. It is presumed that she wore some kind of a dress, and did not appear as Mother Eve in the Garden of Eden, but it will be difficult for ordinary people to translate into English what she was actually possessed of: The court train is of the brocade, and tho skirt has open panels on the frout and the sides of apricot piuk crepe that are covered with deep llouuces of exquisite lace. The frout of the skirt is made of apricot faile, draped with gray lace. Tho body has poiuted openings back aud front, aud is filled in to the throat with amber beaded uet and fastened with a dog collar of amber passeinentries, edged with gold add silver fringe, that also edged the panels and the elbow sleeves,

We have heard so much talk of a rebel yell, why not talk of the republican yell that is resounding from the pinions of Maine to the Golden Gate, from the Everglades to the chilly lakeside,that yell from thousands of voices, "Oh my uncle Ben, give mo an office." Even the petty postoffices that are worth $100 a year have a dozen applicants. A horde of hungry sleuths are lying right in our own county to take, an office from a woman. A man that claims ail pride of honor is working to take an office from a cripple boy, while the" starving horde wants everything in sight.
