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.

Under a general sub- crease this profitable industry." aaEpon the arbitrator* are bound to deddo 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, ZZ 7AC.JSHED !M9. MAKE NEW R1C1 i White Elephants of the Past. Pall Mall Gazette.

Permit me to say that in the time of Au gustus there was a white elephant in Rome. Site clephas albus vulga converterat ora.— Horace, Knist., lib. ii., i. v. 193. Accord ing to the Uazeile de France, July 30, 1832, a white elephant appeared in that year in Holland. Eastern potentates were often mounted on white elephants. In 1008, at the battle of Balkli, Mahmud of Ghuzni was so mounted. In the Shah Nama, written by Firdausi, 980-1009, mention ot white elephants is repeatedly made. Fire at Vicksburg.

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. “Mens sana in corpora sano; “Asonn mind in a sound body” is tho trade mark of Allen's Brain Food, and we assure our readera that, If dlmtitfled with either weakness of brain or bodily powen, this PILLS CTEAM Engines and Boiler*, Saw Mills, Shafting.
