Philadelphia, Dec. 27.—The iioon meeting to-day in the depot church was well attended, the space within the cauvas being filled. The service was commenced by singing the hymn, "Arise, my Soul Arise," followed by the requests fr prayer, among others being three requests for unconverted husbauds, one for an unconverted man, aged 70, and the request of a lady for her husband, for whom she had been praying twentyfive years. After a prayer and the hymn, "What a Friend we have in Jesus," Moody read a portion of Luke 24?h, followed by the hymn, "Ring the Bells of Heaven." Moody read a letter from a man who bad promised to stop drinking and desired a prayer. He also announced that four weeks.ago, among the one hundred aud 6eventy-five night watchmen at the gas works only one was converted, but the number was now twelve. After remarks had been made by several persons in the congregation, a fervent prayer was offered by Mr. Moody. George H.

A Defense or BrUto«r.

Louisville, Ky., Dec. 27.—J, A. Cunningham, a whisky dealer of high standing in Louisville, publishes a card in the Courier-Journal regarding the charges of the Chicago Inter-Ocean, in which he says the same are totally unfounded in fact. He furnishes abstracts of all corres-

relating to the seizure of

is whisky, and shows conclusively that Bristow has never been his counsel, or was ever spoken to by himself conccrniog tbis case. Reganliug the statement that Bristow dismissed the case after becomiug secretary, Mr C. says the same is false, and the case is still pending in regard to Douglas' actiou in the case. Mr. C. says the ex»commi8sioner agreed in April last to release his goods if the owner would agrwe to relieve the government of any damages that may hava resulted from the seizure. He also furnishes some correspondence showing that Douglas made several propositions to compromise, at the same time relating that he was of the opinion that the case was a weak one.

Ihoae Delightful

Frenchmen.

Paris, Dec. 27. In the French assembly to-day, urgency was mooted on the press bill, in the debate upon clauses on the amendmeut, and was carried, providing penalities for attacks upon the Republic. Jules Dn Favre, member for Charenci Inferieure, made the important statement that Marshall McMahon pledges his respect for the newly elected Senstors and asserting that they occupy a position the Government sctjaod only to that of the Marshal.

THE COLLEGE REGATTA.

PRIXCETORIAST GIVES YALE IIAIL. COLUMBIA.

Alient Her Wlthdriinel From the Association.

New York, Deo. 28.—Captain Meoll, of the Princeton University boat club, writes a letter announcing the withdrawal of Yale and Harvard, and sars the inter-collegiate rowing assembly is. likely to last, and tbe tiuae ot the winning crew of tbe regatta of '76 will not be longer because J£^ft,jMuLJiarvardare not among' the contestants. Capt. Meoll reminds the withdrawing crews that the inter-collegiate rowing assembly at its last convention, invited ths English Universiiies to be present at the regatta of '70 and challenged them to race, and asks how, in common courtesy, unless the challenge be declined, abandon or in auy way insure the esteem oi the assembly whose urgent invitation and cha lenga our English cousins will prpbably accept. At tbe meeting ot Harvard, just previous to the with drawal, one of the students said that the Columbia boat at the last college regatta contained five men who bad no right to be there. The President of the Columbia Boat Club characterizes this statement as utterly false, addiug that Harvard must ba sadly in need of a good excuse for withdrawing from tbe Association, if tbe be3t she cm find is an untruthful and unpardonable calumny against her strongest friends.

THE Express geis off the following: Christmas having been upon Saturday this year, it is natural to suppose it will come upon Sunday next year, but not so it will occur upon Monday. 1876 is the Cenntennial year of the United States, and our holidays are not to be on the Sabbath. The free American people are to celebrate the great natal da? upon Tuesday in lien of Monday wbioh by reason of the twenty-ninth dav of February is advanced a day farther from the Day of Rest, and just why leap year should be chosen, or wby it should be in^tbis year, cannot be fatbomed, except it be the proud nation should have the longest possible year in which to celebrate its first hundredth anniversary.

MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.

A Case of Kidnapping and Possibly of Murder.

A'lic On n? Dlsvtpeara from Her 11 a "id's Ho-te and is Seen Ae Mure.

This morninsr, Frank Owens, who resides abont three and a half miles south of town on the opposite side of the river, arrived in the city and sought the the aid of the police authorities in searching for his wife, who,he said,bad suddenly disappeared yesterdey morning. The circumstances are as lollows:

Owens, who ia a wood-chopper, left his home about 7 o'clock, yesterday morning as was li|s habit, telling bis wife ^e would return at the usual hour for diuuer. When he came home he found the house all cold and his wife gone. He went to tbe river about sixty yards from from the hoose whard he kept moored a skiff which be'onged to him. He found tbe skiff gone. Returning to the house he looked for thebars, in the place where tney were lcspt, their whereabouts being know.^i. only to himself and wife. ®he cars were also gone. Returning to tho river bank he discovered the tracks of his wife together with those of two or three men. Tho character of the tracks in the mud indicated that there had been a straggle. Foliowiiia the bank ot the river for about half mile, he he found the boat with the '^ars lying iu it and the tracks of the nt en leading up tho bank, but there we no woman's tracks. Mr. Owdns' theory is thfct the men Had som« to the house aud employed his wife to put thorn acros3 the river in the skiff, and that thoy had dealt I nlly with her, perhaps murdered her an thr the body in the river. Mrs Oivens maiden name WMS A'ic *as n. Sue was a native of this city and was quite well known, having liv'd ill some of ih best families in town. She was quite young only seventeen years of age, and bad baen married for two years.

Trade.

Mr. Phipps, of the firm of Phipps A Hodge, the Daubury undertakers, was sitting in his shop, Saturday afternoon ruminating gloomily upon the dull times, when tbe door opened and in came a stanger. The visitor was a slim faced man, dressed in a dun-colored suit of rather tight fitting cloths. He looked around tbe room, carefully avoiding a glance at the undertaker until the circle was completed.

Then he looked curiously at him and said: "Is the boss in?" ••Yes sir,I'm one of them.is there any tbiuK I can do for you, sir?" "Well, that'll depend on how we kin deal, I reckon," replied tbe stranger in a tone of subdued shrewdness, "I have just had to shoulder a pretty heavy affliction. My old woman went under yesterday." He paused and looked interrogatively over the array of coffins and caskets. "Your wife is dead?" inquired Mr. Phipps with professional anxiety. "You've hit it square, boss," replied the stranger, with an approving nod. "What time yesterday did the sad event occur?" "About 5 P. M., as near as we kin reckon." "Pass away peacefully?" "Lit out without a groan," explained the bereaved. "She'd been sick off an' on for about two years an' better. Not right down sick all that time, but then I don't think she done a square day's work in two years. It's been a great expense all through, but I don't com plaln,hnwsnme\e I o»me in to-d«y to bt-e about fixin' her up." "Ah, yes, you wish to«ecure aburi 1 case. We have, as you sea, various kinds. You will want something nice, I fancy?" said Mr. Phipps. "Well, yes, I want something that will show considerable grief an' sorrer, but nothing that's going to upset folios you know. We are plain people, boss, an' at a time like tbis, with a great af fliction shouldered on us, we don't feel like riling up tbe neighbors. If it was a buskin bee, now, or a barn raisin' even, I'd calculate to make their eyes prance right around in their heads But, and he sighed heavily, "this is a boss of another color." "How would this do?" suggested Mr. Phipps, indicating a plain rosewood. "What'8 the price of that? Yon se«j boss, we live over in Baxter Plain. It's a small plac?, sn' there ain't much style. We don't want to go in too heavv, yon know." ... "Certainly tiot, hut this is a very neat looking article." "Ye»." coincided tbe widower, "it

does em as if one noedn't feel uneasy with thai, coffin in the front room, an' tbe room lull of people." '•I can let you have that for fortyfiva dollars." "Jae—oh! I couldn't think of paying that. Forty-live dollars! Why, joa kin-get a wagon in two colors for ihat i-aoney. You see, this is a plain country funer.l an not a torch light proc ssiou," it-eiiugly xplaiu«d the widower. "How wM this do, then?" next inquired tho undertaker, hastily pointing to another article of common wood, brightly stsiaed. "How much is that?" "Only eighteen dollars." "Ouly eigoteeu dollars, hey? Well that's much more like it. Still, don't it rike you that eighteen dollars is pretty steep tor these umts? "N »t lor an artio:e like that, sir. I cui assure you tbatsucb a coffin could not have beeu bought for a cent less than tweney two do lars, one year ago." "It may be cheap, as you say," rnminatad ihe beieiveu. "yet eighteen dollars is a good oig pile of money. I do want something nice, of course, but I don't want to jump into it so mighty heavy as to inako the people thitk I never bad a luneral before. You get what I mean?" '"On, yes, perfecth'. You want an article Chat will look respectable, and in keeping with your circumatauces, but you do not want to bo too demonstrative in your sorrow "By jinks, guess you've got it square ou the head," said the pleasatl suffer* r. "Now this is an article that ju^t answers tbe purpose, iu my judginei t, and 1 have had yoars of experience." "Yes, es, you must 'ave tucked in a heap of 'em," s»id the stranger, in a tone of unqualified respect. "This is a sound one, I suppose," he continued, tapping the si-:es. "Perlectly so, we use tbe very best kinds of wood," explained Mr. Phipps. "Just see here a minute," exclaimed the stranger, suddenly and impressively drawing the undertaker to one side "You say that coffin is sound as a nut, an'ou want eighteen dollars for it? Now, I want you to understand there ain't anything small about ro^, an' that

've got just as much respe. for the Joad as any other man living. I dou't c«re wher^you sna %e him from.

"I haveH't, sir," "Just think a minute, please," iie anxiously resumed. "Nothing a little rotten?"

The undertakbr shook hlft head. "With a worm hole or so in it—I don't mind a, doz*n7''. suggested the sorrowing one. "No." "Or a littlcsappj? Don't answer top qu icii. ti- ppj" waere it wouldn't be seen by the public, you know." "I haven't such a piece of wood in tbe establishment. We use none that is imperfect.'' "Eighteen dollars it is, then?" sighed the afflicted. "Yes, sir." "I must take it, I suppose," he ob"erved. "but wfi«iV the ueighbora set* that c.'fflu they'll swear old has struck a gold mine.
