Throe girls of the Methodist per.Juacior having unt ‘ogther, concluded to pray for the welfare of their lovers: but the first one had uot got very far along in her petition when it was discovered that they were all engaged to the same man.

There is not a particle of doubt th t the political, management of Phil
