The proceedings of the Convention were spirited and harmonious. As usual in bodies of that character, there was considerable rhetoric displayed to little advantage, and not a few "criticisms of an exceedingly hypercritical character indulged in, but the great bulk of the business transacted was interesting and valuable. The essays or papers read before the Convention were very able, and presented facts and suggestions which can not prove otherwise than most valuable to tiie church. They were plain spoken, giving the views of their respective authois without equivocation or timidity. The discussions on these papers were also pointed and valuable.

The address of R. W. Thompson, on Wednesday morning, was interesting throughout. Some of its passages were thrilling, and responsive aniens in all parts of the house showed how deeply the hearts of his hearers were moved. His eloquent tribute to the life and services of Bishop Roberts, and the other extraordinary men who first planted Methodism in the wilderness of Indiana, intensified by the deep emotion manifested by the speaker in its utterance, filled nearly every eye in the large audience with tears, and every heart with joy and admiration.

The Convention resolved to employ a phonographer and print the entire proceedings, including the addresses and essays, ill pamphlet form, for circulation throughout the State. The document will certainly be a most interesting and important one, and every Methodist family ought, by all means to have one.

On Thursday morning the larger portion of the delegates took a special train of cars, which had boen provided for their accommodation by the old Terre Haute and Indianapolis Railroad Company, and visited Greencastle for the purpose of participating in the ceremony of laying the corner stone of the new Asbury "University building. There was a large crowd present, and the exercises, in 1 in he ad dresses an do the eerem oi:ies, were both interesting and inspiring. The friends of the University in Greencastle had provided in the college building a sumptuous dinner for the guests of the University, which was heartily appreciated afier the long ride and the open air exercises connected with the laying of the corner-stone. The University will, without doubt, experience a great benefit from the excursion. It secured thereby a prominence in the minds of the ministry and laymen present, which will ultimately result in liberal donations and friendly acts that will add ma terially to the strength and influence of the institution.—Evansvillc Journal.

Discontinued Taxes. new Internal Revenue law toOk The effect October 1. A Wachington paper gives someof its most important features, it abolishes the tax on sales of all merchandise except liquor and tobacco, the tax of one-twelfth per cent, on the gross earnings of all railroads, and the tax requiring a stamp on every receipt over $20. The stamp on all promissory notes under 8100 is abolished, and hereafter if a mortgage deed be duly stamped no stamp will be needed on the assignment. The tax of 5 per cent, on incomes is reduced to 2] per cent, and the exemption is fixed at 82,000 instead of §1,000, as formerly. Beside this the new law reduces the tariff'on sugar, tea, coffee and spices—the poor man's luxuries. The total reduction by the law amounts to over $21,000,000 per year. All this is the work of a Republican Congress which has exhibited a commendable desire to lessen the burdens of the people in regard to taxes.

FKANCE is drinking deep of the cup of humiliation which Prussia relentlessly forces upon lier. One only is the terri tory of that suffering nation devastated, her peasantry slaughtered and dispersed and her magnificent works of art, the legacy of centuries, destroyed, but her historic associations and traditional pride arc humbled. The Crown Prince of Prussia makes Versailles, the residence of French monarclis his headquarters, parades his troops in the courtyard so lately crowded with the equipages of the nobility and ambassadors, and standing under the statute of Louis IV., dis tributes the medals to his victorious soldiers. Whether King William sue ceeds in his ambitious desire to dictate terms of peace from the Tuilleries, or not the Crown Prince will have a page in history all to himself for the display of power of the conqueror. The writing desk of his grand-uncle still shows the rent where the First Napoleon tore the velvet covering across as a symbol of his absolute possession, and the medals giveu at Versailles may be considered as a poetical offset to this. To a people so jealous of the national honor as the French, this foreign desecration of the palaces of moiiarchs whom they have overthrown by their own free will, and an Emperor whom they have banished, can be only due to the blaze ot popular indignation and strength to the determinatStorel sist the invaders to the bitter end rtZ ton Post.

THE SUN SPOTS.—The spots on the sun, as viewed through a telescope, at presenf, area wondrous and an entertaining spectacle. The great pentagon group (in which are five very large spots, and many others) stretches in length and breadth quite a fifth across the sun, or nearly 200,000 miles.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1870.

The Methodist Stale Convention. This body of Christians met in State Convention for the lirst time in its history in this State, cat Indianapolis, on Tuesday last. In point of numbers, intellectual and religious character of its de'eirates, and the earnestness of its proceeding, we doubt whether it overbad :i superior in the State. All the Conferences were largely represented. Scores of the old pioneers of Methodism in Indiana were present to give the Convention the benefit of the wisdom thut has been gained by long years of experience in the work of the Great Master. Prominent among these veterans of the cross were the Wood brothers—Aaron and Enoch—Terrill, Goode, Marsee, Hargrave and others, who once rode through the swamps -md preached in the cabins or under the trees oft he forest, and laid the foundations of the Society which now numbers its thousand of communicants, and whose churches predominate in almost every city.

From the Missouri Democrat.

Indian Summer.

There is a glory on the earth to-day— A witching light falls over wood and stream And veils all nature with a silvery haze Soft

illusive as a fairy's dream

A mystic spell pervades earth's wide domain, With dreamy sadness touching heart and brain. Some spirit whispers love to every flower That breathes its fragrant sweets upon the air, For all the blossoms blush—they seem rare gems Strewn o'er the earth to make it strangely fair As though some seraph's wing, in earthward flight, Had swept tlie^landscape, leaving gleams of light. The wandering wind has tuned his magic harp, Ifs tones in strange, sweet, mournful music blend, Like voices breathing from the mighty past liiey waken silent chords that trembling send A rush ot wailing memories through the brain, Idling our sad heart-stories o'er again. The glorious Indian Summer Lands and seas Her smiles have clothed with beauty and with light. The sunshine shimmers softly through the trees, And skies and woods and waters all are bright Hut dying leaves upon the hurrying blast Sigh sadly as they fall, "Bright days fiy fast."

ABOUT WOMEN.

A woman of twenty-four, owning nine children, has been discovered by an Ohio census taker.

Miss Emily Pitt Stevens is theeditress-in-chiefof anew hebdominal publication at San Francisco, called the Pioneer.

Miss Kate Field has 101 engagements to fulfil. One hundred of these are lecturing engagements, while the other is of a matrimonial character.

Two young ladies have entered the California University. 4 Clara Louise Kellogg is her own manager 0x1 her present concert tour.

At Aberdeen, Scotland, one of the leading papers is under the control of a woman.

Mrs. Dahlgren is said to be writing a biography of the late Admiral, her husband.

Mrs. Marshall O. Roberts, wFo of ihe New York millionaire, has recently become quite conspicuous as an advocate of woman's rights.

It is said that there is nothing so calculated to call out the deep earnestness of a true woman and enlist her most faithful devotion as doing up her back hair.

Tremont Temple, Boston, being uncarpeted, Miss Glyn could not read there because the Hubbies spoiled Shakspeare's feet by the stamping of their own.

The woman's rights agitation in this country commenced twenty years ago in Worcester, Massachusetts. Attempts at woman suffrage date from the Bible, when Miriam desired to wrest away the power of Moses.

In Detroit, the other day, a Quaker lady gave her niece a valuable set to diamonds, with the remark, "Thee may find them convenient, Catharine, in case of necessity." The old lady was evidently thinking of the divprce courts.

Jteccntly in Berlin, (20 couples appeared during one Sunday to be married in church, without previous publication of the bans, in consequence of the rapid mibilization of the army.

The latest phase of the woman movement in Iowa is the debut of Mrs. Emily Stalkner as a reverend.

Ladies' trains are reported coming in fashion again in New York. The Rev. Mrs. Van Cott is about to fight the devil in Chicago. Her motto is, "Attack the enemy in his capital."

Miss Frances Rutherford was recently sworn in as city physician of Grand Rapids, Michigan, by a female notary public.

The late Fitzhugh Ludlow was married about ten years ago, but the union was unfortunate, and after some years his wife obtained a divorce, and subsequenty married Bierstadt, the artist, who had been a friend of Ludlow's.

The Massachusetts State Democratic Convention was greatly shocked at the presence of Woman Suftragers, and would not be comforted until assured that no females were delegates. A lower hall of the same building was used for a suffrage meeting while the unterrified Convention was in session.

An intimate friend of Charlotte Cushman recently received a letter from her, dated at Rome, where the great actress is slowly dying from cancer, in which she says there is no possibility of her ever returning to this country, although it is her earnest wish to close her life in America.

Crebillion, the younger, once said that a really fine woman never reached her full loveliness until she was at least 80. There is encouragement for women to tell the truth about their age.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton has three lectures for the coming season, "The True Republic," "Marriage and Divorce," and "The Sixteenth Amendment also one to "ladies only," "Marriage and Maternity." "Carrie," of the Boston Traveler, say if women were as particular in the choosing a husband as man are in the choosing of a virtuous wife, a moral reformation would be soon begun.

A female lecturer has chosen for the subject of her wintea's talk, "Women who work vs. women who talk." There is certainly a wide distinction.

Mrs. Sarah Coleman, of North Leeds, Maine, is the champion in quilts, having constructed one containing sixteen hundred and twenty pieces, no two of them alike.

They have a Justice of the Peace in Decatur County, Iowa, who is fortunate in the possession of a wife who serves processes, summons juries, subpoenas witnesses, and does the general duty of a constable and who, last summer, with the help of a self-raking machine, got in all her husband's grain.

Secretary Cox has mortally offended the women's rights folks by positively refusing to entertain applications from ladies for clerkships in the Census Bureau. Of the four hundred cierlts employed there not a woman is to be found, although more than a hundred widows and daughters of dead soldiers applied for positions.

An exchange says that four young ladies received the degree of A. B. at the recent commencement of the Simpson Centenary College, at Indianola, Iowa. It can not be doubted tor a moment that the ladies would have been far more gratified to have received the "Bachelor" in substance.

Mrs. Helen Hunt (nee Fiske), of New York, is theauthorof "My German Landlady,"one of the pleasautest articles in the October Atlantic.

A Washington paper gives the gratify ing intelligence that in Mrs. Dr. Newman's lecture to ladies there was nothing to which the most modest man might not have listened without a b.lush. It is to be hoped that the commendable example thus set may be generally followed by other lecturers of the plain-speak-ing female sex.

A London correspondent informs us that the cause of women finds warmer friendsin Scotland than in England. The two leading papers of Edinburgare favorable to the enfranchisement of women. The three members of Parliament from Edinburg all voted for the "Woman's Franchise bill." Miss McLaren, daughter of one of the members, is Secretary of the "Woman's Franchise Committee" at Edinburg, and is the most active worker in the movement there. Mrs. McLaren, who is the sister of John Bright, is equally interested.

American Products of Gold and Silver Notwithstanding the large exports of gold and silver during 1869 and 1870,.the supply of the precious metals is considerably larger, through the steady rate of production, than at the corresponding period last year. It is evident that we have the ability to resume specie payments without much longer delay: The estimated production of gold and silver in the United States in 1869 is stated by the Commissioner of Mining Statistics, upon a bullion basis, at $63,500,000, distributed as follows California, $20,000,000 Nevada, $14,000,000 Oregon aud •Washington Territory, $4,000,000 Idaho, $7,000,000 Montana, $12,000,000 Colorado and Wyoming, $4,000,000 New Mexico, S500.000 Arizonia $1,000,000 other .source?, $1,000,000 There has been considerable falling off in the product of the placer mines of California, Oregon, Idaho and Montana, but this has been more than met by the increase arising from quartz minng. This fact goes to prove the necessity for the introduction of proper machinery and scientific knowledge into the mining regions. Placer mining bears about the same relation to quartz mining that primitive systems of agriculture bear to the scientific methods of modern times. Quartz mining is the hope of our future bullion supply. Scientific schools are graduating accomplished engineers. The moment they are seconded by capital, this kind of mining will receive an impetus never before experienced. Well educated men, who. have ability to prospect and locate mines, direct operations, employ machinery, and to attend every detail, will invite an influence to the gold bearing regions which has hitherto kept aloof. The day is fast coming when the paper corporatous, that actually prevent development by their imaginary claims, will pas^away,'aetualcorporations will be substituted. The government lias'been importuned to establish a National school of mining and metallurgy, but it has thus far refused. Some of our colleges, however, have taken the matter in hand, and the country will profit by the knowledge thus disseminated.— •JS. Y. Shipping List.

Scarlet Fever—How the Dire Contagion is Propagated. An English journal says The enormous mortality from scarlet fever which appears in the Register General's mortality bills, is constantly Increasing: It 'is assuming proportions which are alarming not the

less

largely

so, because they are

increased by individual careless

ness. It has always been a source of great mortality -and, in the absence of any means of cheeking its progress, such as we possess in vaccination for small pox and by attention to the water supply and drainage for cholera, and some forms of pythogenic fever, it becomes more necessary accurately to investigate the means by which it is spread. These may be summed up chiefly in a few words It is spread by personal carelessness, by neglect, and by recklessness of individuals as to publie safety.

Scarlet fever is one of the most intensely and continuously contagious diseases. From the onset of the disease till the completion of the subsequent process of peeling the skin, the patient, his clothing and discharges, and the light scales which are diffused in the atmosphere from his peeling surface skin, are pregnant with poison. Not only should lie be carefully isolated, not only should his clothing, and all that comes in contact with him, be carefully and thoroughly disinfecthed not only should his body be annointed, as Dr. Budd has recommended, with oil, to limit the aerial diffusion of the epidermal scales,but the ut most care should be exercised by the persons attending not to be carriers of this virulent and subtle poison. To send to the laundress garments as fatal as those of Dejanira, to expose in a public carriage or a crowded watering room the fertile sources of a deadly and volatile poison are terrible offenses against the public safety. They aie constantly and carelessly committed, and it is thus that scarlatina is spread.

Wliat Defeated Wallace.

The editor of theLebanon Patriot, who was a citizen of LaFayette, in commenting on the result of the election in this district, says: "The defeat of Gen. Wallace is due entirely to treachery. We have

110

desire to open old sores by saying

who is guilty of this treachery, but a leading politician of this District said to us previous to the election that Manson would be easier to get rid of two years from now than Wallace, and the clique who proposed to control this election had more use for a Congressman in 1872 than now. I11 other words, the success of the whole Democratic ticket was preferable to the success of Wallace how, and his •probable nomination two years hence.

PURCHASE OF LAND FOR A CRYSTAL PALACE.—The Crystal Palace Association has purchased 22£ acres of land, used for cattle yards, and lying immediately above the Yorkville Tunnel, between Third and Fourth avenues, as a site for the immense structure of glass and iron which they propose building for a permanent wofld's fair. The proposed palace will be 3,600 feet long and 150 feet deep, with a centjal area of 11 acres, ornamented with flowers, fountains and statuary. The association has a capital of $7,000,000.—N. Y. Tribune.

Hard to Scare.

In a certain town Ui New Hampshire there lives a man who is said to be afraid of neither man nor spirit, and whenever a joke lias been practiced upon him he has always withstood the test. Not long since an old gentleman died in the neighborhood, and our hero was to "watch" with the corpse. So some of the "jokists," knowing him, thought it a good chance to see if he could be "scart." They procured a couple of cats, tied their tails together, and at midnight threw them through a window into the room, then got back into a tree to see the fun. Jim, the lonely watcher, seized a broom that stood near, and went for the cats. Now the "old gent," who lay stiff on the bed, had been troubled with the rheumatism, and when dead was crooked up almost double, so that when he was "laid out," it was necessary to tie the corps with large cords. Jim, in swinging the broom, happened to hit one of the ropes, and ifr became loose, consequently the corpse came right up to a sitting posture, and sat facing Jim with wide open eyes. Jim turning to attack the cats, saw the new position of the dead man but instead of being frightened, he raised the broom, and with it struek the corpse a rattling blow on the head, exclaiming, "You lie down, blast you! I want none of your assistance to get these cats out of the room." The "jokists" now knew that Jim could be fairly classed among the "unterrified, and therefore sloped. .r

THE Abolitionists, as well as many of their opponents, may be surprised to find that F. S. Key, author of the "Star Spangled Banner," was one of the early opponents of slavery. So actively hostile was he to the peculiar institution that he was called "the nigger lawyer." An "Old Defender," in a letter to the Frederick, (Maryland) Republican, says

I knew Mr. Key very'well when he resided at Georgetown, and used to visit Montgomery Court House to practice at the bar, where he often went by the name of the "Nigger Lawyer," because he often volunteered to defend the down trodden sons and daughters of Africa. My old preceptor in the law business, Mr. Benjamin S. Forrest, and Mr. Key used to have many a "tug" together on the "niggerquestion," asit was then called. Mr. Key convinced me that slavery was wrong—radically wrong. I used to take notes of their arguments.
