The Democrats have carried the State o? New Yorh by a small ma jority (about 4,000 or 5,000.) The Republicans concede it. —The World. This elect Cleyeland beyond adoabt. Amidst all the tnrmoil and excite ment of the election, CJov Cleveland is said to have quietly and faithful at teneded tohis duties as Govner in New York. The theory taught by Prof. Wcod row of Columbia, B. C., lias created quite an excitement among Presbyte rian theologians. The Georgia Synod has dis -aided it and forbidden its being taught. The more dangerous forms of cor ruption never cotne in their real form. If we wait for them to come in that we may expect to remain always incor ruptible. Had the devil appeared in his real form our first parents would never have yielded to the temptation. W e arp all weak and must not claim infallibility. The very moment we may presume too nmch on ourselves in that resect, may be our weakest liour. It is a poor j e:>on tl .at Las no res pect or care for public opinion and fa vor. His influence has baneful effects upon fiociety. But what kind of a man is onejwho will sacrifice his own consciencious convictions to gain pop ularity and public favor? What is the difference between the two? We are inclined to believe that the lattei is capable ol doing the most harm: that is till tlie public find him out, and th-u he may be filed away a.s dead-let ter in society'. PROHIBITION TIIF GREAT ISSUE. This calls to mind the fact that the American people are getting to be in dead earnest about the evil effect of unrestricted liquor dealing. The most significant vote given recently was that in Main, where there was a majority of over 40,000 for a prohibi tion constitutional amendment. Main was the first State to legally discoun tenance the stile of intoxicating drinks. A whole generation has grown up un der the rigid enforcement of a prohib itory law. After a trial o l ' over thiity years, the people of that State are all but unanimous that liquor shall not be sold as a beverage. It is a notable circumstance that, on every direct vote the popular will is always against free liquor selling. Whenever the necked issue was presented, as in lowa and Kansas, prohibition was adopted by large majorities. So great is the pro gress of this feeling that it is morally certain if a vote was taken by the whole nation for or against liquor, that the prohibitionists would poll two to one. In Main, the women stood at the polls all day long, be seeching the men to cast taeir ballots against liquor-selling. Should wo men ever vote in this country, they would put a stop to nine-tenths of the liquor-selling within a decade after they bad received the franchise. Pro hibition has come into politics and it has come to stay. —Demorest’s M’thly The above shows some of the im portont facts and features of the Pro hibatory-liquor movement, though tainted with a sentiment we cannot well accept. We protest against its being carried into politics or forming a political party on that platform. The heart of the people ate already in the movement, and we want no de signing politeiaus to use it as a means or hobby for selfish ends. It certainly has virtue enotgli within itself to stand, and if it has not let it fall. It may be necessary to have some kind of an organization within the States, but keep it ont of national politics. One startling fact is, that the consumption of it is on the increase. We who live in the small towns and rural districts have hut little idea of the amount con sumed in the large cities. Once a Sinner always a Sinner. It is a common impression that bad and.vicious people can never l.e reform, od, but the career of Jerry McAuley tells qnite a different story. He was the sun of a thief. His early life was full of evil deeds. He committed ever y crime known to the decalogue except murder, an d, after repeated punish ment, was finally sent to State Prison for fifteen years tor a hideous crime. While in prison he was led to see the wickedness of his past iife by “Awful” Gardner, himself a reformed pugilist and burglar, who had ligion. Since then McAtiley’s life lias not been merely exemplary, it has been heroic. He has labored to improve the moral condition as well as physical circumstances of the most degraded class ot New York city po[ illation. Outcast and abandoned women found in him a very savior. He died recent ly of consumption, but his memory will long he kept green by all workers for the good of tdeir fellow men. . Demorest’s Monthly. We regreat that we cannot publish an article recievediu reply to one that appeared in the Democrat (Cliatta nooga) the 30th ult., throwing re flect ion, on the Morganville Dramatic Club and its eutertaiument recently given at Rising Fawn. We never in tend to let any thing that is personal,, either on the offensive or defensive go through the collumns of our paper without signature of the writer; and in very few, if any, cas es in that way. If strictly indi vidual and petsonal, we will not; hut where it is general and embraces many, it may become nessary and wc may permit it. We read the article in the Democrat, and it deserves u rep[y, but would be more appropiate through t lie colprmns of that paper. But to those who have read the atqio’e (We do not know who wrote it as the name is fictitious and dated at Risino Fawn, we wish to inform them, if they are not alreay aware ot the fact, that some of the besj and leading citizens and yong ladies of rur county were in the club, and father that the funds were not for the school at Morganville Lilt school and church house. Soliloquies Ac. For the Times: “What a wretched land is this, That yeilds ns no supply - ’. These words came to my ears this evening, borne on the still autumn air, from the mountain side. They are words of an old, old hymn, and they were sung this eveing on Lookout in a half plaintive half inqniselive aij, in a masculine voice. Who is it? 1 asked myself, again and agatrt. Surely some mortal in neod. But of what? Can any one want any thing in tnis land of plenty, that can not be supplied by his brother man.

Oh! if this was strictly t.iue. If every man who is now engaged visiting his country-men, was anxious to secute their souls as their votes, as zealous in making known to them the great love of Him who first loved them, as lie is in showing forth his own love, we soon would need but few officers. I ihink we might tinly say office what McDonald says of money 'But for the love ot office there would not he half the friendship in the coun ty. It is powerful for good if bivina ly used.*’ Yes let us say: “Give thy lovr freely do not count the cost, beautiful a thing was never ’ost ” If in this race you are ieft behind.

According to scientists it is due to the influence upon our atmosphere of a volcanic eruption and an electric storm or. the sun, which are estimated to cover the space of 150,000 miles in diameter.
