These men of God were arraigned for the
most trivial causes. Whitefield was
brought into court, and a man charged
him with having converted his wife, lfe
said: “My wife was a lion before, hut now
she is a lamb.” The judge said: “Let
the preacher go free. I would that he
might convert all the scolds in England.”
Good John Shirley was arraigned for wear

“Does he wear white stockings over

said the prelate, “when you find him

but he shouted: “Throw more dead cats,
they will only enrich the soil upon which
we mean to raise great harvests for our
God."
But altogether these men were so mal
treated, they made the very earth trembie.
Constables turned pale aud sheriffs and
turnkeys cried for mercy. One of them
shouted out: “I came to break his head,
but he has broken my heart.” These peo

constant to the last, refused admission,
though we could feel- the hunger and
longing expressed in their long-suffering
eye6. At length faint resistance ceased—
they eagerly came down to tho welcome
boat—fairly lifted their angel of m- rcy on
waiting shoulders, and followed by others
bearing the medicine to which many poor
fellowH wili owe their lives, are lost to our
view w ithin the castle walls.”
The Cuban paused. T he air in the little
room seemed heavy and hot, so thoroughly
had we entered into the spirit of the story.
The senor’s two auditors felt the awful
suffocation his brave senorita suffered. We
aslced if that peerless sacrificc^cally cul

The enthusiasm of that man’s followers
leaped the Atlantic, and near a century
mm a quarter ago began their work-in the
wilds of America.
The story of the Ashurys and the
Wrights is familiar to the whole Christian
world. Writing in those early days from
the then West, a man said: “Send n« a
,mister who can swim.” Tho question
was asked what was meant by sucli a ro
piest as that. Tho reply camo: “The
last man we had, in order to keep an ap
pointment, had to cross a tierce, rushing
stream, and lie was drowned in the at
tempt. Send us a man who can swim.”
They -wain in -tri-.iins, they sh-pt with un

anquered all obstacles, and to-day
stand the strongest denomination in ail
Christendom. They are tho flying artil

them in this house I bid them weleomu to
the sea coast cities, and welcome to our
homes, and welcome'to our hearts.
But the conference will soon be gone.
They stay four or five weeks attending
closely to business, the most of them stay
ing to the very last, illustrating what they
do not believe in—namely, the preserva
tion of saints. They star long enough to
throw away the few briclu that remain of
the wall between denominations. They
S et ns all so mixed up that we have to take
own onr Heidelberg and Westminster
catechisms to find our real bearings. They
will leave their blessing on this cluster of
cities, and will take our blessing to their
homes, and if these words meet their eyes
let them know that our prayer is that the
Lord God of Israel may bless them and
their children forever.
A 11031ANCE IN CUBA.
Ilown Sweetheart o{ the Fortress Com
mamlrr at Havana Relieves the
Fever Stricken Garrison.
From the Nashville American.
We asked the Cuban to tell us something
about a warmer olimate for a change.
Senor Raneriz thought a moment and
then related the following incident:
“1 am a Cuban and I love Cuba, yet the
extreme heat of some months each year is
unbearable. You remember the entrance
to Havana harbor is guarded by Morro
castle. The garrison numbers about 200
men. Three years ago laat June the tem
perature rose beyond all previous records
and the suffering was intense. The au
thentic* were dreading the possible inva
sion of Cuba’s deadliest scourge—yellow i sphere of hatmonv.
fever. News came to thedty of the break- ’
ing out of the fever at the castle. Imme
diately steps were taken for the complete
isolation of the fort. No boats were al
lowed to land from the infected locality
and none were brave enough to venture
the casting of their lot with the garrison.
The heM waxed in intensity as the daya
went by. Long had the distress signal

I am induced to bring to your notice a
certain phenomenon, which apparently re
sembles the “astral bell” of the occultists,
though for what purpose it is produced we
cannot determine. Perhaps some of your
readers can enlighten us.
A few days after installing our-ielves in
i tt:r -.rvser:” dwelling 1 noticed the sound
' of a bell ringing in one corner of my own
room. Having for some months had slight
mediumistic experiences (in the shape of
questions answered) with a small traveling
clock I have used constantly for fourteen
/ear*. 1 imagined the bell to be connected
wit’.. iLIt, end, according to my custom,
tu.dv .10 .1 biu■ i uf ii in the family circle,
one and all being wholly unsympathetic
on such subjects.
Day after day, night after night this
went on, no answers being vouchsafed to
questions, mental or outspoken. At last,
one night, the member of the family who
occupied the room next mine (the commu
nicating door being always open) called
ont that she wished that horrid little clock
would stop striking and ringing in that
unearthly manner, as it prevented her
from sleeping; and it went on so “Very
night, aud day and night. Then I knew
it was no fancy of my ojrn, but that others
heard it. At once I put the clock in a
room on the other side of mine, and closed
the doors between. But the bell did not
stop. It rang in the corner where tho
clock had stood, then at the foot and at the
head of my bed, then over the bed, and
finally all around tho room. Again my
cousin called, begging me to remove the
clock, and finally she came in to find, to
her alarm and annoyance, the clock gone,
knt the bell louder than ever.
Since then it has, with intervals of days,
and once of a week, followed ine from room
to room, to my great im-onveniencc. Once
or twice it has been heard even in car
riage and shops, and once in the theater,
directly in front oi mv face, so that my
neightiora started and looked curiously a't
me.
The_ sound is not always the same {some
times it is a distant hell, sometimes close
and sharp; sometime like a zither
string, sometime three note of a chord
and then the full chord,major or minor as
tho case may be, in various keys; some
time it is one note, sometime another,
from A to E, never lower, never higher.
I must not omit to state that there is no
musical instrument in the apartment ex
cept a piano, which was not here until the
hell had been noticed for two months.
The servants hear the sound, and are.
after the manner of their kind, frightened
and superstitious; look curiously at me and
leave. A mediumistic friend says it has
been communicated to her that' it is to
serve as a notification of the bestowal upon
me of wonderful musical {lowers from the

TREATING THE WRONG DISEASE.
Many times women call on their family physicians, suffering, as they imagine, one from dyspepsia,
another from heart disease, another from liver or kidney disease, another from nervous exhaustion or
prostration, another with pain here or there, and in this way they all present alike to themselves and
their easy-going and indifferent or over-busy doctor, separate and distinct diseases, for which he pre
scribes his pills and potions, assuming them to be such, when, in reality, they are all only symptoms
caused by some womb disorder. The physician, ignorant of the cause of suffering, encourages hia
practice until large bills are made. The suffering patient gets no better, but probably worse by reason
of tho delay, wrong treatment and consequent complications. A proper medicine, like Dr. Pierce’s
Favorite PrescbiitioNj directed to the cause would have entirely removed the disease, thereby dis
pelling all those distressing symptoms, and instituting comfort instead of prolonged misery.
Mrs. E. F. Morgan, of Nil. 71 Lertngton St-
East Horton, Mat«„ says: “Flvo years tuto 1
was a dreadful sufferer from uterine troubles.
Having exhausted tbe skill of throe physi
cians, I was completely discouraged, a

alone. I began taking Dr. Pierce’s Favorito Prescription and
using the local treatment recommended In his •Common Sense
Medical Adviser.* I commenced to improvo at once. In three
months I was |arjtcllu eurr«f t and have had no trouble since. I
wrote a letter to my family paper, briclly mentioning how my

health bad been restored, anu offering to send the full particulars
toanyono writing ine for them, and enclosing a * ' ‘

for replu. I have received over four hundred letters. In reply,
I have described my ca£e and the treatment used, and have ear
nestly advised them to ‘do likewise.’ From a great many I have
received second letters of thanks, stating that they had com
menced the use of * Favorito Proscription,* had sent tho $1.S0
required for the ‘Medical Adviser,’ and had applied the local
treatment so fully and plainly laid down therein, and were much
better already.*'
