MONMOUTH COtTNTY COURTS.

Q u a r t e r S ess ion s .

Before Judge McL ean , presiding.

The Court of Quarter Sessions convened last week on Monday and disposed o f tho following

Danl Dougherty, indioted for assault and bat­tery, pleaded guilty to technical assault, under ad­vice of his counsel, J. 0. Conover. Circumstances were explamed and defendant sentenced to sixty days in County Jail; *'

STATE t$. H. C. WINTER & XL 8. WILLIAMS.

The defendants were charged with larceny to the amount o f $50, tbe property being tickets o f the N. J. S. K. R. Co., alleged to have oeen taken from their office at Long Branoh.

The State proved the finding o f two tickets up­on the defendants.

The defence was that these ftckets were found near the railroad atation at -Long Branoh by the defendants, and were used by them ; that they had no knowledge of their being stolen, and, indeed, cOuld.have proved an alibi during the day, but be­ing strangers did nOt know the names o f witnessefc.

The jury returned a verdict of guilty o f petit larceny, in tho amount o f $8. with a recommenda­tion to tho mercy o f the Court. The defendants were remanded for Bentenoe.

Prosecutor for State; J. 0. Conover for defen­dants.

BTATE tl*. BENJAMIN F. ORIOOB.

The defendant in this case was indioted for as­sault and battery upon Charles Bray, at^Matawan." It appears that Griggs was arresting Bray, by, virtue of a warrant burned by Justice Johnson at Marlboro, and while bo performing bis duty, the State insisted that he handled Bray so roughly as to be guilty of the charge in the indictment.

The defence set up was that only sufficient force to arrest and convey to jail was used.

The jury returned a verdiot o f not guilty. Prosecutor for State ; Griggs <fc Haight for de­

fendant. j

BTATE V8. SARAH JANE VIERFELDEB.

The defendant waa oharged with keeping a disorderly house at Long J3ranch.

The State proved tbat the law had been violated by selling beer on Sundays and selling liquor other days. Several w ;inesseB for the State testified that the saloon was well kept, as far as their kuowledge went. The defence was that the houso had been lawfully kep t; that the two witnesses for the State who testified to having seen liquor sold there week days and beer on Sundays, were animated by malice and revenge toward the de­fendant, because she said they must pay for their meals, whioh one o f them had neglected to do for pomt) time past. '

The jury found defendant guilty and recom­mended her to the mercy o f the Coart.

Lanning for-State; Wm. IJ. Conover, Jr., & Troutman for defendant.

SENTENCES.

R. S. Williams was arraigned and the Court de­cided to suspend sentence, and accordingly re­leased the defendant on hiB own recognizance.

H. C. Winters was' sentenced to confinement |n. the County Jail for sixty days.

John McCarthy retracted bis plea o f not guilty and technically guilty to the charge o f keeping a disorderly house at Long Branch. F ined $20 'and'oosts.

Hannah Irvin retracted her previous plea o f not guilty and pleaded technically guilty o f selling liquor without license, through ignorance o f thd law Fined and costs.

Michael Fallon, indioted for assault and battery upon Margaret Fallon, in the township o f Raritan, waived indictment and plead guilty of assault. Fined $10 and costs. ■■ * ~

State vh. Martin Leonard was deferred till next term, the defendant entering into recognizance.

BTATE VN. WM. M. REID.

This was an indiotment for false pretenoes, wherein the deferdant waa charged with collecting, ApriJ 1st, 1875, some $25 upoh a certain note, made payable to nimself, bnt passed away to an­other party.

The case fo r the State being olosed, J. ’C. 'Cono­ver, counsellor defendant, moved for hiB discharge, on tho ground that the defendant was charged with committing a crime laid ih the indictment, and shown by the proof for the State, as having been committed two years before the indictment was found, and hence it was barred by the statute o f limitations.

Court held with counsel that this was the law, and accordingly directed^he jury to find a verdiot o f not guilty, which ’ they did, and defendant was discharged.

^ginning for State ; J. C. Conover for dofendant.

STATE VS: QEORO^POL.4ND.

This waa an indictment for assault tod battery on .John Grathwobn, at Keyport,

The evidence for the State was that $ e defend­ant pfeked up a ir io k and threw it at the com­plainant, although he did not hit* him.

The defence was that the complainant threw two dippers o f dirty water on the defendant who, in order to frighten the complainant, picked up a brick a id threw it through the glass window in the door o f the complainant’s Bhop.

The jury returned a verdiot of guilty o f assault. Defendant fined $1 and costs.

Lanning fo r State ; Arrowsmith fo r defendant.

. STATE V8. ZILPHA HOWLAND,

indicted for forgery, was the next case tried. The 'M ic tm en t charged the defendant with having forged a certain promissory note for $80, and also with having uttered the same.

Rev. Dr. - , pastor o f tiie - ■ Church,bus married one thousaud couples during his min­istry."

W«» are not favorahlv impressed with the above statement, for we have known ministers who were neither as eloquent or religious as many of*their’ brethren, who. ve.rv pop­

ular among marriageable people. Indeed, rfome have been known to he so expeditious in this matter they have'** tied the" knot ’’ tight before a father, pursuing a runawav daughter, could step from the front door to the parlor. W e are rather inclined to. think

that the ministers who boast o f having per­formed so many marriages, have done a deal o f mischief in the world. Some ministers,

when remonstrated with for marrying unsuit­able persons, have shrugged their shoulders

with the remark, “ Some one would have done

it if I had not.” That is the argument o f the

rum-seller; he is always.ready to excuse his bad business by saying, “ IT I do not, some­body else w ill; ” and surely a minister o f Christ cannot long occupy that position i f he sees the matter in its -true light.

Out o f the .thousand marriages performedby Rev. M r .--------- , how many foolish school

girls were among them wlnise onlv notions o f the stern realities o f lif<- wen* received from novels of.the “ intense'* class, so called, that

are widely read by young girls with the most disastrous result* ?. I low many o f this one

thousand had run away from hoq^e with some disreputable actor or stranger for whom, upon

slight acquaintance, they had conceived a ro­mantic infatuation and called it undying love. Such youth, o f either sex, know nothing .of real love, as they discover later in life, when their happiness has been

blasted by foolish haste in early years. How

many decrepid women we see, not yet thirl v years o f age, who are shapeless and scrawnv in form and wear an Jiabitual expression o f weariness upon their countenances. W hat is .the cause? W hy, they ran awav from home, many o f them,when they wen* mere children,

und Rev. Mr. So-and-So married them to

some great stalwart f«*llow; and these girl wives and myt hers have been unequal to the

, task marriage has imposed upon them; mid so we find them at a time when they should be

getting realty to marry aud perform the duties, o f life, mere wrecks, who, in a little while w ill leave a husband to mourn th<*ir loss and get married again in sixty days. A ease

is before the N ew York Courts at the present time, in which a father, wljo is a retired mer­

chant, sues to annul the marriage o f air imbe­cile daughter, who was enticed from home hv

a scamp and married by some rare less Rever­end, who poekl‘T7-d fie- marring** fee without troubling himself to inquire into the antece­

dents o f ihe foolish girl. Tie* sicamp 'made a good investment if, ;«ft« r paying the Dominie ten dollars, he e;iu retain his wife and tie sup­ported by his rich fathrr-in-law. \Yp wonder i f any minister so far remi-inbers the calling he is engaged in to .-ay to a couple whom he suspects should not be united in marriage,

i* W ill you allow me to suggest that you mav be a little hasty, in this important matter? W ill not the affectio'n you bear .each other enable vou to postpone marriage for-a day or .two ab'ieast, and talk it over with father ami

mother, _ox Jjrjflg them with you to participate in the ceremony, ami so commence the re­

sponsible duties o f life with their blessing? ” "We have heard o f .crises where persons mar­ried in such haste have bitterly regretted it a few hours after. A s one young lady whom

w e know once told ua, “ I said ‘ yes,’ to the minister's question, and what a lifetime o f suf­fering is the comfoquence." The worst hell this side o f the orthodox abode o f the damned is an ill-assorted marriage, and we have no

doubt that many a nlinister who after dis­coursing on the future o f the lost .soul, ami cau&ing the blood to chill in the veins o f his hearers at the horrors ho depiots as he imag

ines it, goes home to thevparsonage and in a hasty manner marry, without question, a waiting couple, who are every way unsuited to each other; but the Dftminifc is tired and caifn®t remonstrafe, or is disinclined to do so, and so iii a few minutes two persons leaye his house who ure to know- soon, and through b itter 'vears, perhaps more.of hell by actual

experience ii). life then they.will ever know

Jiereafter.*

Scattered aftmg ‘the coast, imbedded lui the sand, or washed high yp the numerous creeks* -and inlets; li6 thousands o f pieces o f ship timber o f all sizes and shapes and in different stages o f decay. • The casual observer merely classi­fies them as “ wreck stuff,” and directs his at­tention to more intorftsting subjects. ' And yet to the active and speculative mind, what is more interesting? I f these pieces o f jvood coufd communicate their histoly what tales bf horror and, heroism, o f suffering and brave rescues they could tell !

Here is a frame o f small dimensions and sharp, curve; it suggests a small vessel o f slight build— a fishing smack, may-hep— safe enough in good weather, but it ventured out once too .often and left its bones oil the treacherous shore.,1’ And here is another and larger one; a re­

cent wrecks to all appiYara'nces; but examine the tirnbtt( aftd yon \Vill find around the iron

bplts aud at the joints' that tjie oak has turned to powder; Verily it was Hill time that tip^ floating coffin had ended’-her course. Y e t further along is another; old, worn by the

saiul, covered; with minute shells and sea­weed, g iving every evidence that ^veaps, ave, a generation had passed since i.t had filled its

place iu tl^e staunch ship, and yet there is no sign o f decay in the wood. W hy was the noble craft lost? Was it fog, or storm, or miscalculation, or a complication ol'nll?- W e shall never know. This much* we do know : here is the wreck.

Ami so we might go on and describe each piece and speculate, but we are positive o f

but one fact, and that is, they were, a ll wrecked, wrecked on the bar or in the breakers. The inighty fury o f the storm is relentless; the

stormy billows know no p ity; but they are mildness personified in comparison with the lashings o f the sea o f intemperance, whose every craft will, sooner or later come to de­struction. Is there not an analogy in this

comparison? A re not the cause and effect alike ? Pass along the crowded streets and vou will see “ wreck stuff” o f all descrip­tions and ages and in all statfons. Some there are whose very frailty insured a speedy destruction; some had sailed along majestic and proud, their rottenness uirtfnmm until their wreck. Others have " been lost

mysteriously and unaccountably ; but they are a ll wrecks t as will be nine-tenths o f all nav­igators ou this terrible sea. Merciless impity­ing sea ! When the ship is stranded there are no life lines, no surf-boats, no helping hands, no lights; all is darkness, despair, de­gradation and death ! W ho will"embnfl; ?

r. The advantaged of building loan associations ahd the merits of the system has been the‘th6mo bf many eulogies and the text o f a large nnmberof financial sermons. Tlje expounders of the theoiy ■far outnumber its masters; indeed, a 6omparative- ly small number of members and most ardent sup­porters really understand the true principle of the scheme. The general belief seems to. be that it is an easy means whereby a poor man may obtain funds for building purposes and repay in small monthly installments; a sort of savings bank where tnture savings may be discounted. An im- press)on seems to prevail that, by some incompre­hensible management or manipulation,the funds of the institution are mude to increase and multi­ply until each investor rvceives the amount of his investment accompanied with a good round sum us interest. Were each ancf overy- member a bor­rower at a uniform rnte of premium, the benefit derived would exactly equal the amount invested; were there no borrowers at all!, each memberwould receive his two hundred dollars persbure when he had paid into the treasary, .in monthly dues, the precise amount of two hundred dollars for each share heheld, plus his part of the secretary’s sal­ary and other expenses; hence, in neither case would members derive as much benefit as would bp offered by a saviugs bank, as they Would lose tho interest.* If all were borrowers at* a* uniform rate of say

twenty-five per cent, premium; the series would run out and payments cease in about six years; but if there were no borrowers it would require nearly seventeen years’ payments to complete the series, not reckoning interest. It can be readily under­stood that the larger the number of borrowers the less the number of payments, and here is tho^great defect o! the system. The average duration of a series is eight years; the member who does not borrow pays in tbat length of time, as monthly dues, nineV'six dollars per share and receives two hundred ; hence, it must oe^that the borrowing member pays the fult nrn'ount of hia own obliga­tion, and also pays the non-borrowing member one hundred aiwt'fouT dollars as interest on the ninety- six he has invested. As an investment for capi­talists this is certainly inviting ; but the prime ob­ject of the systenv8 somewhat pcrvorted.

Again, it is represented that capital is unnecs- sary to members as they can draw the requisite funds for building purposes from tho Association and pay only tbe interest in addition to their dues; but it is nevertheless a fact, that the Association requires ample security for every dollar that is borrowed—which is in perfect accordance with. cor*rect business principles, and in this respect where does the Af sociation differ from the indi­vidual lender? Each must be secured, and a sound building loan associatioiTmust be as careful in this matter as an individual: else it will soon collapse. v

Admitting the security question let us make a few comparisons. Taking for authority the statement of a loading advocate of the system nt this place, that at an average premium of twenty-five per cent, the series will expire in eigflt years, wo find that the borrower of $ l,000-~nom- inallv—receives $750 and pays, iu dues and inter­est, ifcl0 .8S per month, which is $ 1 H0 per year, or. $1 ,0-10 in eight years, at the end of which time his obligation is canceled. If ho had borrowed the £750 Irom an individual at the same rate of inter­est (.seven per cent ), at the end ot eight years he would have paid $420 and yejL owed the principal, which would amount, alt >gether to $1,170. This makes an apparent difference of $130 in favor of the association ; but it seems to bo forgotten that the annual payment to tho association is $13(J, While to the individual it is but $52.,'>0, a differ­ence of >77.50. If the $130 per yeur was paid to 1 lie individual and all above the it tereSt applied to tie* principal, there would remain to be paid dnring llie eighth year only $79.28 —which is just 050.72 ugainst .the association ; a few moment’s figuring will prove it. Jf, however, the principal sum is divided into eight oqual parts, one part ahd all in*- terest to,be paid annually, the total sum paid will be >l)8fi,27—$5B.73 against the association, with ao average annual payment nearly seven dollars less. And, lastly, if the borrower cun pay interest and .5100 on th^principal each year, it will take seven and one half years’ time and $974 to pay the debt —being $M» and six months’ time nyauuit the asso ciation with an average annual paymetf^of but nine dollars niore!'"-^,hose and other facts may be easily ascertained l*y use of* slate! and pencil-nfld may bo readily understood. 'I’he association,.hav­ing no other source of profit but that derived from l,i?rroirinq members, cannot return to them more than is paid iu : from whence, then, comes the fourteen per cent, interest, per annum, that is paid to the yoij-bbrlowers, and the current ex­penses of the organization? The only advantage that can be claimed for the system is that mem­bers un*y pay in small amounts -“ nlnblets” that will not be Mt ; but these vo'fy driblets may also be deposited in savings banks to meet the annual payments lo individual lenders, and, tn addition, be drawing interest;i which would be yet more agaffist the assoaiatiou.

If tlu* friends of tho scheme can make it appear otherwise tliau I have endeavored to show, I, shall be glad : for I assure ihem that I write not in a spirit of opposition-but of doubt. T.

'I'he Sabbath evening Borviec of the new Baptist organization was held in Park Hall in the presence of a large audience. Rev.-Mr. Case, of Hamilton square, N. J., prcached on the words of Christ at the Last Supper with hm disciples, it being the occasion of the first communion of the new society. His language was cloii’f amT forcible and uafculated to lead* inen to think. Hii was followed by Mr. Cloughly, of Long Bran ch,1 who ma^e a few remarks pertinent to the occasion. Rev. Mr, Case then explained the custom of the Baptist denomination in thoir communion service and pnkjeeded, to welcome to the church the five persons who'were baptized inutile afternoon, in a few happy remarks. Among other things, he said that the church of which he is now pastor was oV- ganized in 1812. . And it would be very interesting now to know who were the first Converts the first members added to that 'society. The fivi whom he welfc6mod into the First Baptist Church of As- bnry Park wore the first converts of this now or­ganization, and their names will thus go upon the records,of the church to be read in after years. He also said iu receiving a man aud wife., 1 had the pleasure o f welcoming your parents to the fel­lowship of tho church, and am glad to extend tho hand of welcome to you.? After giving thgrq good advioeas to their mode Of living, prayer, etc.,’ he gave tho meeting into the charge of Rev. Jlr. Bark'* er, of Jjyman, who conducted the service of the communion.

A kind lady sends the following interesting story of

t a m in g a b u t t e b f l y .

One cool evening last fall, us I was closing the blinds, my Ii{tle daughter May. Bpied ft colored moth or butterfly ohnging to the .slats of the blind.-, . . ,, * . . >

‘ 0 , mamma, bring it in or it will freeze to death! ” she said, and while I-hesitated, thinking' it, )would surely die in Ihe honse, she had broug&fc* it in aud deposited it in a hangihg basket. It remained there itlynugh the night* And in the morning we saw it moving in a funny, stiff man­ner, very much aR a person would after being thoroughly chilled. ,

“ Isn’t ho hungry? The flowers are allgonef you know,” said May. ‘ . . * r-

She brought me one of dolly’s platos, and I put some sugar' and water in it; and planed it on the'vines near him. In’ a few seconds he seemed to smell it, iind^i^hte^ on the edge of j.he\plite., We couM Bde Turn ihove ‘his-throat as if swallow­ing, but how he ate we could not at fltst tell, ak -his head, was held above his body, and scarcely bent towards the dish. He was much revived by his breakfast, and fluttered about quite briskly,....

I then put him under the magnifying glass, and May called all tho family to come and see the beautiful eyes on the .under sido of. his wings, looking exactly like the eyes in peacook feathofs, only not quite so. brilliant, butjatiH very bnantiful. ■ After this, May slippod htir fihgets gently under his foet iu a way’^hat would not in­jure him, aod took him back to tho basket.

We gave him his dinner of su^ar and watei- on tho window-sdl. He flew to the plate, settled there, and then we saw how he obtained his food. He unrolled from under his chin a black proboscis, a bon i ari inch long, and as fine and flexible os a fine black horse hair. This he plunged into his di b and while sipping in a leisurely fashion, he kept his wings vibrating rapidly with a low hum­ming sound. M ay sfiid ho was purring like kitty, because, he was pleased, and she could hardly be­lieve that the fairy-liko sound was made by his wings. When he had finished his dinner, t|§ rolled up his proboscis Os you would coil ;W'wite} and, tucked it out ofiught .under his ohjn.' “ *;

One day when his dish was brought for him, be' did not eat but kept moving his wiugs in a rest­less uneasy way. I lifted him on my finger and found the gteedv follow had glued his proboscis to his feathers with the sugar. I softened the sugar with wunu water, and helped him us gently as I could to unroll it. My fingers seemed veiy clumsy, but I found it was not easily broken ; it felt hard and smooth to my fingers. As soon as it was un­coiled he ate with great relish.

He never after the first few times seemed at all troubled to have us touch him, and he became so tame that bo would settle on our heads or bands, lie had a special liking for,May, and to her great debght would follow her about, lighting now on her shoulders and now on hy hair, and delighted to.be enrriod on hor fingor from room to room.

We kept him abont three weeks, aud he might have lived much longer, but one sunny-duy he dashed so frantically against the.window thtit he injured himself badly, and to’ May’s great grief we found him dend ir^the morning.

Did you ever try to tame a butterfly ?Ono of our *dear young friends sent us the fol­

lowing account of a catastrophe caused by a but* terfly, thiukiug it would be nioe for our column. \tfe are so glad that awning was underneath the window. ' -

* A CATASTROPHE.

No huinun being who saw that flight But felt ft shudder of palo affright. \He «at iu a window, three stories high,A little b by, with no one nigh.

A stranger saw him and stopped to stare;A crowd soon gathered to watch him there,A gleUm ! a flutter!—in airy flight Came past the window‘a butterfly bright.

From fields of clover and perfumed air.W a y fa rin g in sec t, w h a t b ro u g h t yo u th ere f __Tho baby saw it, and eagerlyReached out to catch it, with glowing glee—

With fat. pink fingers, reached out—and fell!The awful horror, 110 tongiio can tell!Poor little baby, so sweet and bright!Pale faces qnirered and lips grew white ;

Weak women fainted, strong_mon grow weak ;Up rose one woman’s heart-piorcing Mhriek. Hurrah for the awning ! Upon the fly It caught the yonngater and tossed him tiigii.

The bounce prodigious made baby scowl;He caught hia breath, sir, and up a howl.All blessed theawuing that had 110 flaw;But a mnddor baby you never saw !

To the Editor o f the Journa l

The heartfelt thanks of all Christian people , should be awarded to you for your bold, earnest interest in the temperance cause. It is very praiseworthy arid commendable on your part to print the list of names of those individuals, who have-sigued petitions for a licenso to sell rum , to expose all those who have advocated and encour­aged the vile traffic—tho salo of adulterated liquor. Without this exposure their neighbors aud citizens could conceal the fact and hide-their evil doing from public kuoWledge; your publication has marked thom with an unhallowed forehead cross — with the stigma of being no lovers''of prosperity and peace, and who have demandod that the cup that kills both, body and soul, that forms of 'men brutes and of women beasts, should, by legal au­thority, make its hell iu their midst. If is to be regretted that Red Bank cTfTSens, some of her worthiest and best men, should have added their respectablo names to petitions for license; thus by their influence another year is the grim skele­ton of morality, virtue and re.igion, to hold his or­gies and his tragedies jn that goodly town. From . experience wo can testify of the pernicious and de­structive tendency these dram shops aud treat counters have.jjn young men, the pride and flower of families. A romoval from this maelstrom of ruin has been the happy"restoration trt sobriety ahd temperance.- The temptation here to imbibe is certAlnly vory great; drinkiug is on a large scale, free and unlimited ; rtotof the best brands or pure quuhlies, but the worst combination of ingredi­ents, that is manufactured an(kput in the market for sale. Still, sober honorable men have sanc­tioned the sale of f bis hateful miserable stuff. Alai! that in any moral community, there should be found men guilty of such a sad lack of duty to God and to mau. These signers have never reflect- ©3 on their sin in causing thousands of helpless mothere, wives, daughters auil sisters terrible un- guish, regret and sorrow, which will be their hap­less lot by this untimely act of these church goers. The tears shed, the sighs ho ud, the moans utter-1 ed, domestic love aud happn^ss destroyed, will not bo forgotten by God; .although lellow mon have disremombored their augnish, some punish­ment for ibis guilt will snroly be motod ont to the transgressors. No excuse that liquor is a necessi­ty, no extenuation cun be offered as a plea. Th1 Plainfield, oven ut the loss of money to pay for c\ty expenditures, no licenses are granted under ai y circumstances exoopt nt hotels. Tho effect is

^glorious : there is a moral atmosphere without the taint of iutoxication. It is to be regretted that in so dewimble fi summer resort, the migratory visitor should find liquor selliug so Common a practice, with no discouragement of tho merchandise. It certainly iSratt evidence of tho state of society#and tho intelligence of the residents, who can calmly, quietly permit the existence of one of Satau’s b st agents and allies. In God is our only sure help. Ho is not sleeping, but soon will arise, to scourge and to’punish this tremendous evil aud gross sin. How long, oh! Lord, how long? L.

As we staled last week, ill response to an adver­tisement in the Philadelphia and Ocean Grove lientrd, we sent $1.25 to the•Ai-i’lorenee Jewelry Company,” Pittsburg, fdr a set of “ epral jewelry.” We have not received tbe promised twelve dollar set, nor have we heard from the “ company; ” we have heard about him, however, aa the following letter will show:

New York, May 19-. 1877.T» the Editor o f the Jo u rn a l: —

Mr Dear Si^ :—In the (probable) loss of that $1.25 sent to Pittsburg, I sympathize with you. Oil seeing the advertisement I'cut it out and for­warded to onr manager there with reqnest to trace np the Florence Jewelry Co., which he did. At the address given was a beer saloon, aud no Sign of coral jewelry. «- •

Crossing to the Mayor’s office he learned that a suspicious personage bnd oc.nipied an upper room in the building and that he had boon shadowed by the detectives for some time. I have no doubt he has departed before this, and the money that you and^others forwarded oan be obtained 4'hrough the P. O. Department, unless 'remitted prior to tbo exposure.

I am very sorry that our goud friend Dr. Wallace was so easily imposed upon. The results of my inquiries were sent to him,

-- y ■ ■ - Yours truly» I). II. B.We aro ‘afraid that tbo doctor was caught nap­

ping this time ; but rather think be will keep a sharper lookout in the future. We know that several ladies of this place Were about clubbing together to send for spts of u coral jewelry,” but tho itom iu onr last issue caused thom to wait unifl our venture waa heard from ; and, although We are out a dollar qnd a quarter, they are in ’* several dollars—all from reudmg the Journal.

Two morals may be drawn , from ti»W circum­stance ■

1. Never send money to unknown persons <£n the strength of an advertisement. • ■

Wheti an advertiser offers five dollars wocth of goods for one dollar, you may be qure there ia fraud In it, aud you will be the victim If you invest.

Arrangements have been made for Sunday- school excursions from Newark to Ooean Grove and Asbury Part, during the season. 'Am ple ar­rangements are also being made in this vicin ity to render theso excursions pleasant and enjoyable to those participating in them.

the Old Folks' Concert, “at St. Paul's Church, was a grand sncdeSfl. Many supposed it would bo but tho effort o f some, ambitious nmatourn. but the performers acquitted themselves like old veterans. The make-up of the company was very amusing; the Yankee^ the Old Quaker, the Continental 8oldier, the prim lady o f the olden time. Many ladies were 6n the stage dressed as our ancestors 'used t o ; but/the old-fashioned bonnet could not hide the many handsome faces and roguish eyee o f the singers., Among the selections that met wit^ special favor was the-,“ Easter Anthem,” “ ijea t V (old style), and the duet “ Robin Ruff.” W e wero obliged to leave at the closing o f tbe first part, but suppose that the “ best was at the end of the feast.”

We think a little more mirth— in plain English, a little more fun— interspersed through the pro­gramme would have been relished by the audience, who seembd just in the humor for a hearty laugh. There was talent rinongh on that stage to have given some mirth-provoking dialogue to have kept the people ij^good humor for a week.

A cloudless sky, cooling breezes from the ocean, that gently H^jjpled the waters o f Wesley Lake on whose mar- <gin the waiting tbrong were gathered, the singing o f birds, the peace and b till ness o f the Sabbath— such Sabbaths aa we have in this vicinity— all seemed tp oombino to m^ko tho aoene and the hour one o f great solemnity and beauty.

The cottage o f Mrs. S. Adams was opened for the use o f the ministers, converts and friends,, and at the hour previously announced the procession left the oottpge amj walked slowly to the lake sing­ing, “ Shall wo gather at the nver," as they group­ed themselves on the margin. 1 The customary ser­viced were then performed and the baptisinml rite administered to five persons, all of whom are residents o f the Park. During tho service a large concourse o f people were gathered on both sides of the lake, a number of whom on the A sb u iy Park side came in carriages and wagons, but so orderly was Ihe crowd that every word of the ser­vice could be heard by those assembled. W o cannot but feel gratified at the good <>rder main­tained as well as at the successful performance of this moet impressive ritp by our Baptist friends. Surely not one~of oil the throng who witnessed the holy ceremony but felt something o f ita deep sig­nificance and power.

As the events o f Ust Sunday will be historical, we append the names o t t^e converts: Dafvjd. Sobenck, Elizabeth Sohenck, Ira Bresnahan, Henry Brosnfthan. William A . N. Morton.

The town o f Gravesend, Long Island, owns a portion o f Coney Island, which is leased to persons who keep hotelsr saloons and bathing places. The income from this source pays all tbe town ex­penses besides leaving a handsome balance in the town treasury. The income in 1857 was" one

-thousand dollars ; in 1876 it was $15,000. I t is Buppoaed that at some future time the income will amount to a very large sum. The portion o f the island owned by the town was ceded to it two centuries ago-when it was worthless; but now Gravesend is the richest town in the State. Instead of being burdened w itji taxes to pay bor­rowed money, it is a lender.

A few days ag<» we received a dainty white box graced by the white ribbop that always tells its own story of love and happiness without the aid of words. :

The accompanying card bore tho following iu- Rcrijnion : “ Charles B. Leek. Surah S. Hawes,married May 9th, 1877* Now York.” We knew Charles B. tn bis boyhood, and since naJnre bas decreed there must be marriages, we aro glad that our old yonng friend found his life choice in As­bury Park last sumpier,( where the decision was made. W e congratulate the newly wedded pair and hope their fnture life may be as happy as two oving hearts can make it.
