' Iowa Letter.A possible presidential cnndldute, and

-the-enforcemont" of'-pi'bhibltory -luwy' w attracting to Iowa , at present considerable general attention.. I t was-perhaps the lirst mentioned fact that caused tho Pres­ident to turn to tliis State for a Commis­sioner of Patents, and So indirectly Mr. B. Q. Hall may thank Iowa’s great senator for his elevation.

It. is said that a Democratic editor remarked that Mr. Hall’s appointment would bo a great thing for Iowa, and espe­cially its newspapera, and when asked the reason, he replied: ; “ Well, its terribly hard work publishing a Democratic paper in this State, aud Mr. Hall is not the man I take him for. If he does not cause a reduction in the price of patent insides.”

The fnct is, tbnt Iowa is so thoroughly Republican that any other party or organ of such party has a struggle for existence here. Even the Third party . is a mere shadow. There are 1?0;J voting places in Iowa, and in 1881 the St: John candidate for governor received 1405 votes, which made a fractional St. Johuite for each pre­cinct,.yet the State gave a 530,000.majority for Constitutional Prohibition. There is less reason for a Third party in Io.wa than perhaps any other State In tho Union, The Republicans'gave the State its pro­hibitory law and they are enforcing it.

I recently spent an hour in the company of Gov. Larrabee and a Democratic ex- £Uate Senator. The Governor had just returned from visiting the State prison at Ft. Madison, the law .requires him to visit the two State penitentiaries every three months. He said there wore so few prisoners in Ft. Mad iso u penitentiary, that in order to fulfill the lubor-contructs,. It would be necessary to. bring prisoners from eight or ten counties that belonged at th e : upper penitentiary nt Anumosa, where there are no labor contracts. Con­victs In Iowa aro-becoming scarce. The Governor attributes this to the enforce­ment of the prohibitory law.

In reply to my question, if he thought the law was being generally enforced* lie said; " Yes, except In tho counties border­ing on the Mississippi river, and some few other exceptions.” Then taking from his pocket a map of Iowa, and running his pencil along the northorn tier of counties, he remarked, that ufter leaving Alleiua- keo county, on tho Mississippi river, the law is enforced in every ono of these; and following the Missouri river tho law is enforced In all except two or three, where thero may be a few struggling saloons.

In the lower tier of counties there is not a saloon until you reach Lee, which is .“ a terror.” But it is not so bad us Sioux City was, and tho law Is now enforced .there, though had it not been for the death ot Haddock, it would probably have taken five years N to have accomplished this. Thoro are no open saloons in most of tho interior counties except Crawford aud Car­roll, which are also u terrors,” There are possibly a few saloons in'some others, and

in some liquor is sold in drug stores. You will find, he continued, that generally, the counties where the law is not enforced are Democratic. /

Gov. Larrabee is thoroughly in earnest in his purpose to enforce the law, and be believes in time that it will be as well enforced as are other laws. He thinks the saloon elemeut is very cowardly, nbd that iu 2f» years tbe people of Iowa will won­der that they ever permitted the saloon element to exist. \ • ., The conversation drifted into other channels. Our Democratic friend en- deavored to impress upon the (Jovernor’s mind that State taxes ought to be reduced. “ Why,” said he, “ since I have been in Iowa I have paid $70,000 for taxes, and for a third of this I would be willing to give all I am now worth. Thin of itself shows how ruinous our taxes are, and one-half of these taxes he groaned are for school pur­poses.

The Governor admitted that this was true, but he thought it a good investment. “ There is no country In the world,” he said, '* where the per cent, of illiteracy is so small as in Iowa No land can show so white a spot as th is” and he did not think there was any imminent danger of impov­erishing a State by school taxes, which produced from tiie soil and increase in stock alone two hundred million tlollafs a year..

Gov. Larrabee will in all probability be re-elected, as he has given great satisfac­tion to the people of Iowa, and 13 a hard­working Official. I recently met a U. S. Revenue Inspector, who was appointed by President Garfield., lie said be had re­ceived a letter frbm Secretary Lamar, in which he expressed, himself desirous of seeing tho Iowa prohibitory law enforced, and if be (tbe Inspector) could render any service to the cause, in his travels, he was at liberty to do so> though it would not be fuir for the Lr. S. Government to pay him for these extra services. So this inspectoi is aiso worklrigYor tli^Sfate"Tomp~erance Alliance, an organization which is aiding considerably in the enforcement of the law. Iiis account of the workings of the last was similar to that of the Governor, and a trip that the writer recently took into the Interior of the State cor roberated these statements. In some places the jails are empty and a prisoner , is a curiosity. This is universally attributed to the new law. The law is generally regarded with favor, even by those wlio for political reu sons have not openly fnvoved it. ’ For instance, ii Certain Democratic editor re- marked to irte, he would like the saloons to go, but added, “ don’t quote me as sav­ing this.” .

About the only person 1 have converged with who regards the law as a detriment to the State was lion. 13. J . Hall. He de clares that it has already damaged the State, its business interests, etc. . To my question, if ho thought the depleting of tho State’s prison .was a damage to the State V lie answered “ no,” but he did not think this would last.

I t must-be remembered that the temper­ance element was a-strong factor in defeat­ing Mr. Hull’s re-election to Congress, but be should not bo so bitter when the Presi­dent has administered so soothing a lotion as the office of Commissioner of Patents. -

, A Break in the Cable. .•Let us Imagine that, by some accident,

all the cables now uniting..Europe and America were suddenly to break. What a complete disarrangement of all ourpjuns would such a calamity cause! Not only could no message on that day be trans­mitted from either side, but for weeks, and perhaps months, there could be no ex­change of ideas except through the tedious medium of the post. Two .worlds must wait until tho Injury is repaired.. In the meantime anxious people on either side of tho water would find the suspension of in* telllgenco unbearable. Yesterday we could literally converse with our absent friends in London, Purisor Herliu; to-day, iis far as news from them Is concerned, all. is silent as the grave;- Europe, with her mighty * capitals, is still beyond the sea; her countless factories and her Babel voices are still making tbe nir vocal with the souuds of busy. life. But of all this we have no Immediate evidence. No wire Hashes to us tho longed-for intelligence from distant relatives o r.friends; not a message, instantaneously communicated, makes us feel as though bands bad clasp­ed. All that we can see or bear is the il­limitable ocean, with its restless, waters ebbing and ilowing forovor.

Now it is exactly the sumo with thou* sands in thoir spiritual relations''to God. Nothing do they moro firmly bolieva than all the grand verities of tho Christian reli­gion. They believe that Jesus died and

* rose again; that l ie ascended into heaven and is now seated at the Father’s right hand in glory; and yet, notwithstanding all .this, they- are conscious that no life whatever Hows from God into their hearts. The sweet peace which comes from being justified by faith; the joy which results from tho indwelling of the Comforter; the strong assurance which anticipates victory before tho battle is f o u g h t-o f . all tlujse blessed fruits of the Spirit they know ab­solutely nothing, and the reason is—

Thr. Commitu ion. which once (.tinted be- ticr.cn God and mini, nnd which, like n c<rf>le, united Creator nnd cratturc together < /«/#, by the unbelief o f m m , been severed.

Spirituul death and an unutterable want of rest in the soul are the results of this terrible rupture; and so long na communion remains unrepaired, tliis death- and unrest must inevitably continue. This may be the very case, dear reader, with you. The joy of believers may not bo your jojf ; their hope not your hope. Your whole happi­ness, all you have within the limits of time, may be staked on the beating of your heart, and that may cease now—is sure to do so hereafter—und yet you are indiffer­ent about your soul, ubout eternity, about God. Perhaps this indifference astonishes you ; I am sure it wearies the long-suffer­ing of God. If you ask me why it is so: why you havo not the joy rind peace nnd love that Christians have,—I can only an- swer: The cable that should unite you to God is broken, and until it is repaired in the way laid down by God In Holy Scrip­tures, the spiritual death in which your soul now lies will perpetuated into eter­nity.—rfiishop Baldwin.

. Sermon in Westminster Abbsy.It was on a beautiful Sabbath afternoon

that I heard Canon Farrar, amid these grand surroundings, preach. The seats, were, filled before the hour. The solemn stillness imd the Imposing grandeur of the abbey,- .together, -with -tha-xeverent.-husli, and awe of the worshippers, were very im­pressive. At the moment of three o’clock, without prelude or note from the grand organ, and without rustle or sound of pre monition from th e . invisible choir, there suddenly aud softly fell into the vast silence—” Amen.” .

The effect was magical.I t seemed to have dropped.out of lien-

yen—one. stray note from, the song of a seraph. Or was it God’s benediction on our waiting hands ? Amen 1” \ . .

" I t Hooded the crim son tw ilight Like the close (if a n angel s psalm',

And 5t lay on iny fe.\ered spirit With a touch o flu lin iie calm .”

The peace of God came witli the word. The vision of heaven opened to me. “And all angels stood about tho throne sayin “ Amen-."-

I never expect to hear that note on earth.again. ' • . '

“ i t m ay be th a t d eath’s b right angel Will sperfk iu t lm t chord a g a in ;

I t amy be th a t only In heaven I shall hear th at grand A-men.”

Of the service that followed I need only say that it was tbe usual Epistffcpnl form. Tho preacher commands our attention. He announces his text, ‘’ Prove nil things; hold fast that which is good.”—1 TJiess. 5: 31.

It was’ a genuine surprise to bear the most popular preacher of the Episcopal church In England’in her most venerated aud renowned abbey before an immense congregation that filled the vast nave and crowded the aisles of tho Minster an­nounce for his theme a religious move­ment which lias largely elicited scofiling from the ungodly nr censure from the ma­jority of Christians—the Salvation Army.

We have a movement in aur midst, said Deacon-Farrar, which is history repeating itself, a movement marked by the same excesses and fanaticisms', mingled, with much that is good, tbat characterize tbe primitive* church of Corinth. 1 am to speuko- of the Salvation Army. I t is a difllcult and dangerous them e.to touch, for-whatever may be a m an’s utternuce be is sure to bo blamed by _ one side or tbe other. Nevertheless I shall speak plainly and in a profound desire not to transgress Christian charity .,.

In tiie early days of Christianity Christ and his apostles had .to deal witli heresies aud abuses in the church: Thoir efforts were divided so as not to quench the spirit iu men, but to separate tlio evil from the good. They aimed to- eliminate what was fanatical and erroneous from what was vitid and Intrinsic. I shall try to follow lu their footsteps.

Wo are not afraid, said the Canon, of thoso whom tbe spirit employs to enst out devils—to reform nnd recover from vicious' lives the multitudes \Vho do evil. In great towns there aro vast masses’of population tlmt aro not reached by the regular clergy. Some irregular and unusual means.be­come more, effective in arousing dud re­

forming these unchurched multitudes. Hence the work of Moody nnd Sunkey achieves groat good. They may reach many whom the church will. not. Iiut witli the methods and means of the. SnJvn- tion army the church has less sympathy This sermon Is not meant to put a check uppn the work of the Salvationists. They will not be persecuted, but’ protected tlujmghout the realm. While they trum pet their power and boast of their pro­gress and numbers in the United King­dom, In Australia and in other lands, and announce the coldness and formality of the church, even slighting her sacraments, it ^nust be understood that the Church of England does not assume the attitude of antagonism to the Salvation, army. She hup learned tolerance by the: mistakes of tb& past. There is a marked difference In th i present attitude toward this movement, nnfl the manner In which she treated the wqrk of Wesley. She is far more consid­erate of the. Salvationists than she was of tk6 £reat Wesleyan reformation. She can­not afford to repeat those mistakes. While there were no such shams, military titles, beating of drums and flourisiiing of ban­ners in tho Wesleyan movement as char­acterized the Salvationists, yet that earlier movement never received such considerate and gentle treatment by the church as she extends to this latest and cruder developc- ment.

Then Canon Farrar com inended tiie fol­lowing points as admirable: The meek­ness and patient endurance of insult of persecution, with which their early en­deavors were assailed, thus .evidencing tbeir deep sincerity; their efforts and suc­cesses in seeking out the neglected poor, the vlscious and abandoned; and their heroic efforts to lessen tbe amount of drunkenness, the curse of England. He doubted not that they bad been the instru­ments of saving souls, arousing conscienses Hud reforming lives, which could not haveb£e» reached by the church.

th'ere“ f(T30in GTtlil ngs*wh1chHie could notcomuiend. "The terms In which they speak of sacred things is shocking. I t is trailing tho white garments of Chris­tianity through the mire of vulgarity. When they will put away tbeir irreverent methods and vulgarity and hold fast that which is good, then will the dmrch ex­tend hearty, sympathy and material aid In rescuingand uplifting the degraded masses of the ureat cities and towns of England

Soma of the CiUGos of Intemperance.11V MIIS. V. II. iSAHKKTT.

Mucli has been said 'and written upon the vice of drunkenness*, per .«//, upon its fearful effects anil reaction upon-society, but we find comparatively little has been said or written upon tiie causes that go to produce drunkenness. It seems to me .thy one great agency, the most important one which should be brought'to beiir upon this crying evil, has been lost sight of and for- gotten, viz: what appetite and habits of life must exist in man prior to inebriety? I course of life must, first lmve existed

opposed to themeutui and phyicul hygiene of a well-ordered mind and body, before the man can be made to drink. The per son must first have take ti tiie-preliminary steps to it.

We believe with Dr. Jackson, wlio, at one time, was-among the ablest advocates of temperance in this country, that there is a better way than the* one pursued to tight this demon, alcohol. Indeed, we are indebted to the doctor for much of his philosophy of ways and means to wipeout the evil. .

It is not simply to. tight alcohol,.but to make war on all its subordinates—to carry the war uot only against distilled ferment; ed liquors, but against nil .those adjunctive substances whose direct effect, when eaten or drank, is to create an appetite for these liquors. • ■ v .. . - .

The besi way to cure the drunkard is to see to it tbat ho never becomes oiy\ and tlio best way to do this is to keep him from having an appetite, desire or. feeling of need of stimulants. -><iow thero are more enemies than one tlmt lind theh* entrance to a mau’s-blood. through the medium of tbe stomach.

The alcohol drunkard is uot the only phase of drunkenness we have to contend with, for look at the millions of opium druuknrds, the tobacco, the tea and coffee drunkard. They constitute a great army.

I think we mothers have a great work to do in this temperance reformation. We must look to it tbat our sons and daughters lmve tho proper food and drink at our tables. To do this let its take care that tlioy ea t‘nutrient and unstlmulating food while young, and thereafter, if possible; that they drink no tea o r . coffee; that they use no tobacco In any form; .aud I prom­

ise yon, mothers, with the above discipline, your child will never die a drunkard, for they will have no appetite for strong drink nor can anyone induce them to form one.

Where in childhood they nre fed largely on excitants, such us.the fiesh of fattened animals; upon irritants, like pepper, mus­tard, spices, etc.; upon nervines, such as tea lind coffee, it may be considered almost absolutely certain that with advancing years the .person thus accustomed, will feci the need of stimulants or narcotics, nnd in all probability lie will be in the use of one or both of them, though there are many exceptions, I t will depend on the temper­ament of the person which it shall be. The process of making a man a drunkard, then, we believe, is begun at tiie domestic table before tiie child reaches his twelfth year, consequent upon bud dietetieg together with lawless habits at home and. improper parental discipline.

We must begin with the habits <?f our youth if we expect to accomplish much with this generation. Instill right princi­ples of life and the love of God Into their hearts as soon as consciousness -dawns. Teach them to live purely and simply in all directions, not defile the temple of tbe living. God. Let every true man and woman, who have the weal of humanity at heart, help.to educate the public sentiment- up to this.

It . is true a great many persons have been saved from the drunkard’s grave by tbe efforts of noble men and women, nev­ertheless; there is as'much liquor drank in'the United States to-day, In proportion to the population, as at any other time or period. This shows we save individuals, but do not effect to any great degree tbe public sentiment, nor do we remove the abominable causes .that exist to make the inebriate. We settle nothing scientifically nor determine anything morajlv. To ap­peal to the intellectual and moral sense of the drunkard, when his sensations are all befouled, would be about as effectual as to usk“an'ugue-pntient to-stop-shaftlngi-First, let us remove the predisposing and exciting cuuseX that produced the loathsome effect we behold in the man—then, will lie “cease to do evil and learn to do well.” .

Until we do this our work must con­stantly be repeated—In fact, is neverdone.. As a prophylactic to intemperance, then, control the food and table beverages, the condiments and anodynes of the sober.

No one ever saw a drunken man made so by the voluntary use o f . alcoholic liquors, wlio never h ddtualiy ate seasoned food, nor animal oils, who never drank*foa nor coftue, nor used .tobacco or opium. The thing, we believe, U physiologically impossible. • ■

The^rue basir, then; of the temperance reformat ion. is n Christian character,: and that o f obedience to the laws ;>f life and health;- . ’ .

" I Will Hold Thv Sight Hand."It was such ii hard place in which to

stand.1 None but the mighty had spoken there, and I was afraid.. As the; time drew near.'the pressure increased, and J sought the place of prayer. •* Master,” J cried ,,{I- am but a child, bow cati.l stand before kings V” Then, soft and sweet, dis­tinct and penetrating, came the answering voice,’“ I, the Lord thy God, will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee. Fear not:. I will help thee.” Instantly my soul wa? filled, witli light and love. I sank down at the blessed fefct, —did Mary more truly bathe them with.'her tears, or more ten derly wipe them with the hairs of her head ‘i All fear and trenibling-was gone, all thought of self, so vivid and real was the 'personality of my Lord. ‘ The fear never returned. . ’ .* •

. Dealing with Childhood. •10 the Autumn of last year you as'ked;

for incidents In reference to Ocean Grove, and a number came, into.my mind.junong.. them this one of a little boy who has spent some portion of every Summer there since the organization of the.Association usually three months at a tim e.. I t seemed to be an apt illustration of youthful integrity, for he was very truthful, and. bad never been deceived in little matters by his mother. and friend', a* is often the case.

lie was yet in little dresses! and one day after dinner, it being thought necessary to> put on a clean apron, he was somewhat disposed- to rebel nt this interruption of Ids aumseiiients tind begun giving vent to his feelings/as most children do under such, circumstances,'-by.crying-quite vigor- m-dy, when all at once lie ^topped, and

turning t-1 his aunt, upon whose lap he was sitting,- said .-“ I did • promise, heavenly Father, I would nut cry any this morning, but I did not say anytlimg about the. after- noi»nl’’ Of course those present felt much. inclined to smile, but controlling tbe. im- , pulse, he was obliged to desist, which he did. • . ’■ . •■ !

It is almost needless to add the sequel, that a child that was on sucli good and friendly terms as to thus, talk with the All. Father, should early become converted, pass unharmed:through the snares of youth to. tin honorahJo tnanhood. We little know, of the struggles of childhood. ’ Mother, it is but. a small thing for you to stop on your busy round anti unravel the mystery that is perplexing that little brain. It may be annoying nt the time, but listen und help to dear away the mist by intelligent and truthful answers, for you are forming n character, nnd shaping destiny.

If y o u , hesitate the Divine Helper is ever ready with the needed grace and childlike, ‘

mir. love were l*ut more simile.’ \\ e should take Hi tn at JIis \vor<l:

And our live would ho ull Mm*>liiiiv, tu the sweetness of our l.«nd.”

The bustle of freight and passenger business is increasing nt tho railroad depot.

Next week we shall publish iii full the ordinances of Ocean Grove, revised thor­oughly at the recent semi-annual meeting.

The Gospel in AU L i iftfa for May de­votes considerable space to Mexico and its missions, with numerous portraits and other illustrations.

We ore sorry for those straugers who wore at the Grove for the first time last Sabbath, and had to leave on Monday, thnt the grounds and oceau were so shrouded with impenetrable mist.

A subscription of 50 cents to this paper at present, secures four months of good summer reading. No better way to oblige distant friends, we think, than to have T he R ecord sent weekly to their address.

.The members of the Association were greatly impressed and pleased with the magnitude of the new Y. P. Temple, and the tidy appearance of the streets and ave- nues, which have all recently been cleaned up.

•I)r. Hunt, the celebrated sanitarian, made a fine impression on the minds of the Association by his cogent address last Tuesday. Vice-president Ballard believes that he will be able to carry out the Doc­tor’s suggestions to the letter.

Mr. and Mrs. Morehouse, of Philadel­phia; now the -owners of th e . beautiful Corning Cottage, fronting Ocean avenue, are busily engaged in its complete fitting up for their summer home. • Meanwhile they stop at the Atlantic House.

A good suggestion in regard to the milk supply will be found in this number. Sev. oral letters are on hand pleading for the plan proposed last week, but ail further pleading looking to the opening of the gates we think is only a waste of energy.

Kev. J . F. Clymer, formerly of Utlca,- N. Y., has been transferred to Winthrop Street Church, Boston. Ilisclnssesof lust Summer at Ocean Grove will he glad to hear that he will assist Hev. B. B. Loomis at the Sunday-school Assembly again thisyear-., •

One of the striking incidents of the semi-annual meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday was the huge gavel which- somebody had provided for the president’s table. It did. gnod service, although at times the cra^h wu< a little too severe, on sensitive nerves and promiscuous debaters.

\ On Wednesday morniug, after, four or five days of dense fog, during wiiich tlie hoarse warning of Meant whistles only told of passing steamers up and down tiie coast, the sun burst, out in beauty, the sky became clour'again, and the revelation of increasing verdure was in a degree mar- elous. ' \

If people’ will allow themselve's to be fleeced every year by persistent advertis­ing drummers, paying often in advance for boarding house and business cards in jjublicatino.H of no practical use, we cannot help it, A few lines at a small outlay in T he R e c o r d , we should, think, will do moro for the people than all other meaus combined, to attract attention

Tho Sami-Annual Meeting.Tlie dense fog which had been hanging,

over Ocean Grove for several days previ­ously did not prevent a full attendance of the members of the Association on Tues­day morning, May 10. Every member of tho twenty-six, except. Father Masker, of Philadelphia, now'entering his 80th year, I timlDr. Tantum, either in Florida still* [ or.on his Way- home, ;were promptly,on hand, ami tlie great pioneer o f the whole business, Rev. William IV. Osborn, was conspicuous for the cordial. greetings he ! received on every hand. . .

The business interests of Ocean Grove J must have a strong hold on the solicitude ■of busy men to. call from theiriiomos at this season of tlie year such gentlemen as Hamilton j of New York; Hayes, of New­ark ; Black, of Lancaster, .-Pa.; Major Yard, of Freehold; Audrews, also from the editorial chair; Murphy, from the County Clerk’s otlice; three presiding el* ders, Adams, Simmons arid Wardell, from Ne w York and Connecticut, and Daniels, from Wesley Park, in the Queen’s domin. Ions.; '■

Rev. Bro. Tasker’s usual letter, of late years a plea for exemption on account of other claims upon his time and attention, alwaays contains a few golden paragraphs, of good:sense, genial fellowship and well- founded admiration for the institution and wonderf ul results of Ocean Grovo. In his communication, read on Tuesday, lie says:“ How I love you for your works’ sake! Myself, still it pilgrim in the thicket of humanity, there is hero and there (as the farmers say) n portion of clearings, some cutivated spots, green with the finest of the wheat, and portending a certain ’.harvest. My hearing is no better; have had a talk with Jesus about it, and the conclusion is, tlmt I should cultivate thankfulness: for what I am and have. Compensation is going on by honest measure. ‘ Praise the. Lord, his mercy endureth forever!’. “ I am gratified with some aspects of the times, and how they reflect honor on the spirit and management o f. Ocean Grove, ilo w these have shamed /bigotry, turned sectarian hitters into the wine of brotherly love, and imparted sweetness and relish to. hitherto constrained Christian fellowship. Big thoughts surround such achievements.

•They are luminous, yea, brilliant! Part of what prophots saw in their Visions of the great future aro being fulfilled among you. Tlie Lord bless nnd prosper you always. Amen.” ■

The openiug religious services at all these meetings are more than ordinarily exuberant. When the brethren look in each other’s faces and grasp each other’s bauds, tho stanza is Involuntary:

Then let our songs abound,And every tear bo dry,” Ac.

Rev. B. M. Adams offered the opening prayer, wli lie responses might be heard outside on. Pilgrim Pathway and Main aveuue.

It required a good half hour for Secre- tary Evans to read, as a matter of informa­tion, the proceenlugs of all the executive deliberations held since the anuual n\eet. ing last October. Points were made for inquiry and explanations duly given. Iu the midst of the reading of the President’s report aud financial statement covering tlie interim, busiuefs was suspended, on in­formation that Dr. Hunt, Secretary .of tho State Board of Health, was in the vicinity. This indefatigable and intelligent sanita­rian, with his able scientific assistant, Dr. Henry Mitchell, of Asbury Parl£ were courteously iuvited up to tho business room of the Association, tind Dr. Hunt,-by re­quest, proceeded to address au audience whicli, he remarked, was more imposing than he expected to meet.

In every particular relating to the .thor­ough and satisfactory sanitation of a house, a town or city, Dr. Hunt Is an ac­complished expert. He evinced an accu. rate knowledge already with the progress of work, in sewerage, &c., which com- manued his enthusiastic commeudntion at Ocean Grove. He was, however, unspar­ing iii regnrd to possible defects and the necessities of a degree of vigilance sleep, less and untiring to keep oil, until tho object is reached of making the place absolutely pure and safe.

The. Doctor’s, address was clear, forcible, complimentary, but discriminating, and elicited a hearty vote of thanks and appre­ciation. lie and Dr. Mitchell, on invita­tion, theu dined with the Association at the Atlantic House.

• THE DINNER, . to which our experienced friend, Sir. C. J. Hunt, seemed to have put his whole mind, happened to come out all right, as usual, although most of his extra supplies in the form of “ luxuries of tho seasou,” failed to arrive by train from New York until Tues­day morning. ■

With the members at table, wo were pleased to notice, the following goodly array of ladies: Mrs. President Stokes, Mrs. G. Hughes, Mrs. A. Wallace, Mrs, Carrie Bullard Deeklns, Mrs.G. W. Evans, Mrs, G. J. Hamilton, Mrs. II. M. Brown, Mrs. K. limit horn, Mrs. W. 11. Wardell and others whose names have escaped us. Tho ladies enjoyed the opportunity of social reunion during the afternoon, some of them looking after their cottages, wliilo the members of tlio Association resumed their business at half-past, two, and tho session was opened with devotional ser. vices aud prayer by *Rev. II. M. Brown.

.'. TH E BRIDGE QUESTION,. •made the order of busluess at tho* earliest

period possible, at the - semi-annual meet­ing, claimed precedence, andwas discussed during the entire afternoon without reach­ing-a vote. . • ’

We are not at liberty, however interest­ing the.report might be, and whatever our personal preference may be toglve it pub­licity, to state either tho' affirmative or negative reasonings brought out,- while most of the members, with the utmost candor, stated their views pro and, con. The ferries, involving manual labor on Sabbath day from'early morning until late at uigjit were admitted on all sides to be an Unmitigated nuisance. Also the collection of toll as payment for this Sunday labo/1; but, in regnrd to a pcrinnncnt:bridge, even a-foot bridge, destroying, as it was sup­posed it would, the long boasted and jeal­ously guarded exclusiveness of Ocean Grove, there were zealous and unyielding opponents. The growing frivolity of As­bury Park, its rage for amusements and dissipating'tendencies were ventilated to the full, and to a question meeting the most ardent advocates of a couple of hand­some bridges,. “ If the nearest neighbor were ■ Long Branch instead of A.sbiiry Park, would you bo ready.to connect the two places.by convenient bridges?” some were, in expressive parlance, “ stumped.” They would not. Then, if the social com­plexion of Asbury Park is becoming more and more similar to the other locality mentioned, and if the present controlling head of Asbury Park should cease, by death, to occupy this position, shall we unite this specially dedicated spot In per­manent bonds to tlie. other ? *

The discussion was resumed at the Tues­day evening session, after prayer, by Rev. Wm. B, Osborn, until nU Who desired to do so had spoken, and 'then broke out de novo on the suudry amendments, substi­tutes, provisos and compromise plans pro­posed to meet the confessed needs of the community, without Ocean Grove relin- ?iuishing her distinctively reserved rights.

After all, the case stands just where it stood, one consideration having duo weight In prompting a motion to-lay the whole matter over until the niinual meeting next October, namely, the limited time afforded to. erect the two, new bridges proposed before. ju ly 1: Of * the present year;

The pontoon expedients; by whicli both ferrymen proposed to stop their boats on Sabbath and allow free travel to and from Ocean Grove were discussed and the prop- osition rejected on the ground chiefly of unsightliness and possible danger In the event of a rush, which- might result in serious accident. .

WEDNESDAY’S PROCEEDINGS were taken up with water supply, lighting the grounds by electricity, election. of Board of Health, consideration of an elecf trie railroad in the Grove and sundry)n&lB: urea in regard to ways and means to proi vide for the great season now evidently opening upon us.

Just about tho moment of adjournment a note came from Mr. Sufford, who was boring a new Artesian well, saying; “ Just about to strike water.” This caused quite a stampede after the doxology was sung und benediction pronounced, the brethron mostly going In a hurry to catch their trains or note the outcome of the new well, wjiicii proved to be about 00 gallons per minute, and which will, further in- creaso our exeelleut water supply.

Esv. Dr. Korr at Oooan G-rova.We hoped for sufilcient space this week

to present a somewhat extended report of of the Sabbath sermons, and Monday even- iug lecture of this eminont Wesleyanmin­ister, whoae recent visit aud labors were very highly appreciated, by a people who rarely fall to discern extraordinary char, acterlstlcs in a public speaker; but owing to the occurrence of the semi-aunuul moot­ing, and the amount of matter previously on hand, we are compelled to omit both sermons and lecture until a more conve­nient seasou. . . .

Rev. John Kerr, D. D., is an Irishman of the best type, with stalwart frame, commanding presence, exuberant wit and mighty In Scriptural exposition. His ruddy teatures, luhoreut energy, and inex­haustible resources, combine to endow him with ull ihe magnetism of a success­ful pulpit and platform orator. He has been 32 years In connection with the itln- erant ministry, commencing to preach when yet but u boy, and passing through all the experiences and adventures inci­dent to Irish evangelism. For some time he was found to.be one of the most availa­ble helpers to man the General Mlsslou in that country, aud more recently was called to ..the vacant place of the learned .und lamented Dr. Appleby.

He was sent to this country some years ago to raiso funds for counectional pur- posed, and everywhere made friends, aud met with success. Ills preseut mission is one in which mnuy or most American Methodists’ havo a lively interest—the erection of a monumental church at Port- rush, the native place of Dr. Adam Clark, to the memory of that greatest of Wes­leyan ministers. and commentators.' He needed only.about $7,000 to complete that commeudable work, when turning his face once uioro to tills country for contri­butions, and iu New York, Brooklyn and Philadelphia, lias received from most cheerful contributors nearly the whole amount, giving in every iustauce a qui'l 2>ro quo, iu unsparing pulpit service..

Ilis sermon at St. Paul’s,-Ocean Grove,

on Sabbath morning, was a terse, eloquent and truly Wesleyan presentation of. doc­trine, duty and testimony from; 1 Cor. 0: 20, “ For ye are bought with a price” &c.

At the afternoon experience meeting usually conducted by Dr. Stokes, our vis­iting friend, by request, read the Scrip­ture lesson, which, included part of the Sermon on the Mount, giving a fluent and searching application of those passages which Imply, if people have been blessed, it Is that they may instruuientully become a blessing to the souls of others. The light given them is to sliiuo . diffusively, and all help they receive from God, is to enable them to help men, women and children into his kingdom. He deplored tlio fact that so many professed disciples of Christ do nothing, others very little, for the Church and liumanity.

The meeting which followed was one of those •! melting” seasons which send• peo­ple away better than When they came, sev­eral testifying that the remarks of Dr. Kerr, and his morning sermon lind been made a great blessing, • v

On Sabbath evening, hy courtesy of Rev. Mr, Schock. of Asbury Park, the Doctor occupied the pulpit of F irst M. E. Church; His sermon was on 1 John 1: O’, “ If we confess our sin3” &c.

Opening with an amplification i,)if- “ sin,” his word was in demonstration of the Spirit and power.

The difficult duty of confession, not of other people’s transgressions, but our own was enforced, and the faithfulness of God to forgive,^ cleanse^ and save fo the-utter­most. Iliustrated and: applied with vigor, pathos, and effect. The choir sung splen­didly, and a few were ready, to contribute, but the sermon, as we hope, produced a deep and lasting impression.. ; '

In addition, the Doctor delivered a racy; comprehensive, and very able lecture on Ireland, la St. Paul’s on Monduy evening, the bouutlful edifice being filled with an intelligent audience.

Ho described his native Isle, so far- famed in Its geographical position, topo­graphical character, early history, varying fortunes, and present improving condi­tion. I t was not the least amusing of his picturings, to hear the logical reasons on which he claimed St. Patrick as a Metho­dist traveling preacher, and proved-the fact. .

Of the present Home Rule agitation he said but little, uot ugreeing with the Par- nelllte sophistries wiiich are so widely popular in this country, but . promised to tell us . how all th is .“ fuss” would end when he next visited Oceun Grove, which wo hope will bo before many years. He. is now on the eve of departure to his home work, and proposes to' dedicate the Adam Clarke Memorial Church next September.

------ m • m iHon. Wm. C. DePauw.

The death roll of last week, contains two yory prominent names in tlie annuls of Methodism. By an accident while out driving, Oliver Hoyt, of Stanford, Conn., but well-known by his extensive business and church relations in New York and ail over the laud; after lingering a few days, died while surrounded, by his family und intimate friends, and wns borne to tho grave on; Monday, May JO. sincerely, mourned by thousands who knew him but to love him.

Equally startling and .sad was tlie tele­graphic (lush which told us our friend, Win. O. DePauw, while in tlie city of.Chl- cago, and about to resume his business journey to some other point, wus suddenly B tric k e n with apoplexy, and conveyed in an insensible condition to his formerly happy, homo at New Albany,. Indiana,, where his active nnd useful life closed forever. . 1

He bogau the world a poor but energe­tic und honest boy, working for $2.00 per week. He died the possessor of huge wealth, part of which he hud begun to distribute for college endowment and re­ligious progress. How far public expec­tation may be realized in regard to his in­tended benevolences, we do not yet know!

His religious consecration ut a tent meeting held by Rev. J. S. Inskip at In­dianapolis 15 years. ago, exerted a very marked influence on his after life. He became for a time president of the Ra­tional Publishing Association for the pro­motion of holiness, arid in that capacity we were fi rst brought into acquaintance with him, when we were induced to perpetrate that greatest business blunder of our life, in disposing of the Jhihodint Home Jour­nal.. He was> u conscientious and faithful witness to the experience of sanctification. Even at tlie Ecumenical Council in Lon- dou he testified to the personal enjoyment of perfect love.

At Oceun Grove h r took a lively Inter- est in all our Christian activities, particu­larly the Holiness Meeting aud Bible Class. We looked for l\is coming this year; but how many of our own cherished friends are not, for God has taken them.

Since the above was wrltteu, a note from Rev. T. T. Tasker, Sr., through Dr. Stokes, has reached out’ hands. Bro. Tasker says.: “ In the death of our beloved friend tlie church Is brought to suiter great loss. He was in in any respects a remarkable Chris* tiau man—sober, intelligent, great will power, general and useful endeavors, lib­eral npd genial, and rich toward God and humanity. Take him all in all, when will the Lord raise* up such another, man of means and splHtuul consecration *”

Milk Supply —A Suggestion,E d i t o r o f R e c o r d — In last week's,

issue of your.paper an article appeared on the “ Milk Question,” written by: “ Board­ing House Iveeper." There"is, no doubt but what the Association and the majority of the residents- of Ocean Grove desire to do what is right in regard to this question. I f the milk wagons are -allowed to enter the grouuds, as- suggested by the writer, there will be a virtual approval by the powers - thnt- be, of* Sunday milk selling; this cannot be denied. ;Wliatever may be done outside the gates, cannot justly be liiid to the ; charge, of the ’ Association.. The presumption is that all Who come to Ocean Grove,- either as boarding house keepers, or as guests, knew; of tlie exis­tence of the restrictions of. the place ; and if they are unwilling to conform to them, they are not.obliged to.come here, or to remain. , To admit the milk wagons even under the restrictions suggested, would at once change the character of the.Sabbath here, and would be the entering wedge for demands to admit the butcher, the baker, the grocer, &c., and so the quiet of the Sabbath would be gone, never to return. . ̂ .«

There Is a way out of this clifflculty. By making suitable arrangements a large pro ̂portion can secure milk enough, on Satur­day, and with the use of ice keep it per­fectly sweet until Monday morning. A great deal depends upon the desire to avoid buying milk on Sundayo “ Where there is a will there is a way," ■ On the part of the large boarding houses where>a large quan­tity of milk is used, one way out of the dlfiiculty is to use" Borden’s condensed milk. This comes in bulk and can be secured in Jersey City in any quantity on Saturday and brought ou the cars, and will, keep for two or three days on ice. I t Is almost as rich as creani, is not sweetened, and in coffee or tea 'is far superior to the milk we get from our milkmen. The cost is no more than the regular article, and it can be used for every purpose where milk is required.

Tliis is written not as an advertisement for Borden’s condensed milk, nor Is the writer/a member of the1;Association,' or even a property-bolder in Ocean Grove; but having recently become a resident of tlie place, and appreciating the'dellghtfui quiet of the Sabbath, and seeing the embarrassment of Boarding House Keeper and others, the writer having used this article over a year in his own family, can heartily recommend its use, and It holps to solve this difficult question.

Tho Vsverly,Ocean Pathway to wards the sea brightens

up considerably by tlie opening of the Waverly, Mrs. Eder’s attractive and cojn? modlous summer hotel. I t was comfort­able to step into its parlors during tlie recent foggy weather and sit down by its cheerful open Are..' Guests are beginning to arrive unexpectedly earlj^ but even in the hurry of bruahiug up, fiud the most congenial quarters. Each season at the Waverly Is better thun the.last, and 'this tells the secret of its popular management. Mrs. Eder will entertaiu some of the prom­inent people of Washington this season; but this will only increase the number from all over the country, who always wish to stop at the Waverly.

The Ocean Queen, from its salubrious situation, immediately fronting the rolling surf, is always u most desirable stopping place for those who wish to have the full benefit of a seaside visit. All who have heretofore enjoyeil the hospitality of tho Misses Frank tfc Adams will be glad to kuow that they remain In charge, and that the favorite Ocean Queen wus never bet ̂ter prepared to contribute to their com­fort. Guests for long, or shorter periods are equally welcomed and well treated. •

The Cowell House, under the manage­ment of Mrs. E. A.- Jackson, of Philadel­phia, this year promises to be one of our most desirable resorts In Ocean Grove. With superior furnishing* and all home uppllances rendered possible by Artesian water, hot and cold, with bed room com­forts not always found In our best houses, Mrs, Jackson offers and will deserve a large patronage. The Cowell is only a few minutes walk from the ocean bathing grounds. '

The Biilmo-ral (uot Balmoral) shows the effects of Mr. VatiSlcklen’s enterprise and excellent taste. With* IT rooms added to its capacity, aud Mrs. K. A. Swan, lute of Reese Cottage, permanently In charge, the sphere of Its usefulness Is more than doubled.. In location it could uot well be better adapted to the public accomuiodu- tion. On Surf • avenue,* east of Central, nnd opposite tlie Sheldou and Surf Avetiuo House, it is convenient to hot and cold baths, ocean piomeuude; and quite near the Auditorium'. The terms will also be a popular feature of this new arrangement. Open June. 1.

C. L. S. C.The Circle met as usual last Thursday

evening in tho cosoy parlor of the M. E. Church. They had a double treat. Besides an interesting program tl^oir hearts were made glad by the presence of former ac­tive members, the Misses Nellie and Alice Provost, who with others formed a! com­mittee from the Lockwood Circle, of As­bury Park, who have accepted the Invltar tion of the Ocean Grove Circle to partici­pate with them In the pleasures of Recog­nition Day, to be observed July 20,1887, and at which time the “ Pansies’’ carry off the honors of the . day. I t is hoped that there will be more graduates than ever from Ocean Grove this Suminer, as the class of ’87 Is,larger than any preceding year, and .the'’ number of graduates from all parts of the country is estimated at about six thousand.

The Circle was aiso pleased to meet Miss Mitchell, from Wilkesbarre, and Mis3 Potts, from Lancaster,' who gave a brief account , of the Circles, of which they are con-: nected.-

Other familiar faces of Summer resi­dents were present, and altogether it was a general reunion of the Chautauquans,

Washington Affairs. ■Secretary Lamar did not attend the State

dinner given in honor of the Queen of the ' Sandwich Islands at the "White House on Friday evening, and the gossipa were ready with an explanation. They said’ it was on account of tho complexion of the dusky sovereign. This accusation niad6 it necessary, of course, for the Secretary to come forward, with his own explanation. Ho said the true instigation of his non- appearance was neuralgia, from which he has suffered ever sincc tho delivery of that memorable oration at tho unveiling of the Calhoun statue in Charleston. He further vouchsafed the information that he very much1 regretted his inability to sit at dinner with Hawaii’s Queen, which he felt would have been a high honor.

Kaplolanl could not hut bo pleased with her reception at the United States Capital if distinguished attentions were what she most desired. Victoria could scarcely have had more honors done her in the same length of time than did tho Queen of the little kingdom in the Pacific. . The President’s wife returned her call at the "White House in I c s b than two hours—the limit allowed by tho royal etiquette In returning visits.

The ladies of the Cabinet and members of the Cabinet called on the Queen at her hotel—an entertainment was given in her honor at the Hawaiian Legation as well as ht tho White House—a review of troops was made for her benefit—she was taken around to the sights of the city by a com­mittee of reception—she was taken to Mount Vernon on the United States steam­er Despatch, and she was the recipient of various other attentions from private organ­izations and from private but distinguished individuals.

Tho royal visitor attended two American amusements while here-^-the races and the circus. At the latter place there was iioth. ing to distinguish Her Majesty’s seat from those around her-^not even a cushion. She had to sit. on-the hard board bench, just like her common neighbors. There was nothing official connected with her vlslt.there, which was made at her own suggestion, and of course she took her lot with tho common herd. I t wus not even known that royally was present, and she

■ was permitted to walk through three Inches deep-dust in passing in and out of , the grounds as entirely free from auy pressure of public opinion as if she had been nobody in particular:

The Queen scarcely-spoke to her com- panlons during tho performance and the racket of the clowns seemed to have no satisfaction for her. But when tho ele­phant tossed the clown about the ring it made her laugh, and wiien-tho - clown’s turn came to batter the gigantic beast out •of breath, and finally lay him prostrate in the arena (the elephant having been trained to He down), Her Majesty guffawed outright.

On the Queen’s trip to Mount Vernon “ nice customs courtesy to kings” was rig idly observed. She was escorted to the steamer , post u line made up of officers of the Navy Yard gathered to do her homage, while a royal salvo of twenty-one guns was fired. Inside the .cabin Ivaplolani found herself tho centre of a distinguished company. The Diplomatic Corps was gen­erously represented by the ministers from Chili, Venezuela, the Netherlands, Aus­tria, Japan, Turkey, Switzerland, the Rus­sian “ Charge d’Aflnires,” and the Chinese Secretary ctf Legation.

Our own Government was represented by officials of the War, State and Navy Departments, members of the SupreCiie Court, and ,by members of the Senate and House Committees on Foreign Relations, besides sixty or seventy other persons of recognized importance in'politics or soci­ety. ■ . •

' m ediately on the shoro of the A tlantic Ocean. It Is bounded on the north and south by beautiful

. fresh water lak es; on the eASt by the ocean, and on th e west by lines nearly parale ll w ith the Railroad.

E X T E N T ,

I t comprises over three h undred acres , o f land, two-UiVtdB Of wh-ch are groves, and th e rem ainder beach land . The whole plot Is now, laid out in g ran d avenues from eighty’ to three h undred feet wide.

S I Z E O K L O T S .

Tbo average 6lzo o f lots is SOxoO feet, w hich is large enough for a wnall cottage, 6uch as th e m a­jority prefer to build. Those who wlBh to build larger buy two o r moro lota.

B U IL D IN G S .

On theso avenues about eight hundred cottages ore now built, varying In cost from 8 3 0 0 to 9 5 ,- 0 0 0 . There aro about forty additional buildings,

To theso buildings o thers aro being constantly added, so th a t the precise num ber g iven to-day will no t auswer for th e num ber a week or a m onth hence. All of tbo cottages are comfortable—some of them plain, and others pos­sessing all the beauty an d perfection of modern architecture.
