METHODIST CENTENNIAL.
This Year to Witness the Centenary of
American Methodism.
This year, 1884. is a great and notable
ore in the annals of American Methodism.
It will witness the celebration of the one
hundredth anniversary of the Methodist
Episcopal Church on this continent, ond is
certain to prove a year of unusual activity
and profound interestJhrougout the widely
extended borders of that powerful denomi
nation of Christians. The grand historic
facts relating to the beneficent character
and wonderiul achievements of Christianity
through the organized plans and the doc
trines of Methodism during its pathway
through this century of its existence in
America, are truly phenomenal, as ac
knowledged by the world s leading minds,
and is one of the grandest problems of the
age. With more communicants than any
other religious body in America, it is a mat
ter of interest to briefly review some of the
facts of general interest connected with the
history of the Methodist Church. Beginning
In obscurity and feebleness, it has achieved
for itself everywhere a most wonderful
success. This great religious movement
has, immediately or remotely, so given an
impulse to Christian feeling and profess
ion, on all sides, that it has come to present
itself as the starting point of our modem
religious history.

church was organized in Baltimore, when

THE WAY OF THE WORLD.
There sate a crow on a lofty tree,
Watching the wc.ld go by:
He saw ft throng that swept along
With laughter loud and high.
“In and ont through the motley rout
1’alu gho»ts stole ou unseen.
Their hearts were longing for one sweet word
Of the love that once had baen,
Bot never a lip there epoko their names,
Never a tear was shed:
e crow looked down from his lofty tree,
• ’Tis the way of the world,” said he.
A ringer stood in the market-place,
Singing a tender lay,
But no one heeded his sorrowful face.
No one had time to stay.
He turned away; he sang no more;
How could he sing in vain?
And then the werld came to hia door.
Bidding him sing again,
But he nicked not whether they came or went,
He in his garret dead.
The crow looked down from his lofty tree,
*• ’Tia the way of the world,” he *>ald.
There sate a Queen by a cottage bed,
8poke to the widow there;
Did she not know the same hard Mow
The peasant had to bear?
And she kissed that humble peasant s brow,
Aud then she bent her knee:
“God ot the widow, help her now,
As Thou hast helped me."
“Now, God be thanked.” said the old, old crow,
As he sped from his lofty bough:

there were only 14,988 members. 83 preach
ers. 64 church buildings, no missionaries
and no institution of learning within the
bounds of the denomination. But from
that time until the present the growth of
Methodism has been almost incalcula
ble. This result was achieved by men who
can well be denominated heroes in tlie
loftiest sense of the word. Accepting the
motto of John Wesley—their church's
founder—“The World is my Parish," these
men of God traversed every State and
territory of our great country, preach
ing tlie gospel with power and in
demonstration of the spirit—building
up the church. Their entire singleness oi
purpose in spreading the gospel has been
their prominent characteristic, and to-day
American Methodism numbers within
her various branches 3,903,724 members;
25,830 traveling preachers, and 34,714 local
preachers; 32,000 church-edifices velued at
$100,000,000; 258 institutions of learning,
embracing universities, colleges, semina
ries and nigh schools; in 1882 bad 433
missionaries in foreign fields sent trom
America, besides 1,900 native helpers; and
daring that year contributed for the cause
of foreign missions the sum of $551,447.44.
The M. E.Church, South, has prepared
to join in the celebration of “the Centen-
nial Anniversary of the organization of
the Methodist Episcopal Church in Ameri
ca,” which will occur in Baltimore on De
cember 27, and proposes to commemorate
the great event throughout its entire
bounds with suitable services and by rais
ing funds for educational purposes, church
extension and missions—three noble ob
jects to which the lioerality of the church
will certainly respond. Two millions of
dollars is the amount proposed to be raised
for those objects, and that thispurpose can
be accomplished there should bejio doubt.
It will certainly not exhaust the treasury
of this strong church with its nearly nine
hundred thousand members.
It may be interesting to our readers to
recount what American Methodism has
hitherto accomplished on her centenary
occasions. We first revert to the centen-
mu! uf 1839. As ihc first Mctimuist society
was formed In London in the month of
November 1730. so 1830 became properly
the one hundredth year of Methodism. It
was accordingly celebrated in Europe and
America. During that centenary year,
with a membership of 749.216 members,

In the Timex of January 25 it was stated
“The principal title of Toung, (the white

white elephants is repeatedly made.

Sneezing Cats.
Special.
Xorwich, Conk.—Two or three
weeks ago the cats of Windham county
began to sneeze. They sneezed con
stantly all day and night, and wan
dered gloomily about tho coun
try roads with both eyes closed and
swollen. Catnip and other old-fash
ioned remedies did them no good.
After a few days the patient sneezed
itself to death. In many cases the
village doctor was called in by lovely
females who saw their pets dying in
the chimney-corner in spite of them.
I none day,'in the village of Putnam,
three glossy-coated, thoroughbred
Maltese cats died of tho distemper.
They were valued at $5 apiece. In
Woodstock, twelve cats perished in
one week. Tho disease spread over
tho eutire county, and about ten days
ago appeared in Hartford and in To-
land county. Physicians pronounced
it the “cat epizootic.” They conld do
little to check its ravages on account
of the difficulty in cutcliing the cats,
which became shy and suspicions.
They advised tlie owners of them to use
catnip tea freely whenever they could
ran down a cat. The distemper disap
peared as inexplicably aa it came.
With n change of weather from the
cold fogs and reeking thaw ot the past
three weeks all affected animals recov
ered, and no new cases have appeared.
It is estimated that tho loss in cats in
Windham county alono is over 100.

11 it la honest for every United htate,
Senator to have a private secretary at gov
ernment expense, it is proper that the peo
ple who gave the money should know the
names of the secretaries.
The names are not given, however, and
it is stated in the news from Washington
that the names will not begiren, for the
reason that Senators intend to pot mem-
ben of their families, coachmen and ser
vant. on the roil aa private secretaries.
This is a disgraceful suggestion. Pos
sibly it does great Injustice to honorable
Heriators. If so, die best way is to make
public the names of the private secrets,
■lei. Until that fa dooe even honorable
Senators are liable to be inspected.
