After the brother from the amen corner had passed around the hat and the congregation had settled down to quiet expectancy of the coming sermon, Ananias Clinchum arose and, advancing to the table upon which reposed his hat, said: "De tex' fo' de ebenin's discose am: An' Jacob wrastled wid de angels, toilin' all de nite long.

"Belubbed, it seems to me I see de ole man now a settin' out dar in front ob his tent a smokin' his pipe. I spect de smoked de pipe in dem days. I dunno, but I spect day did. Well, ole Jacob was a sittin' dar a smokin' an' a ruminatin' about de way he got around Laban in dat cattle' bizzinis'an' enjoyin' de ebeginn' breezes which came off de Red Sea. De sun had set—de chickens had gone to roost—de gals was in de kitchen washin' up de dishes—de boys was out feedin' de critters, and de ebinin'n star was risin'. Suddintly dar come along two shinin'men. Jacob riz up metiately an' axed 'em to come in an' sup wid him. But dey wouldn't do it. Den Jacob tried to prewail on 'em to come in. But dey wouldn't do it. Jacob den determined to make 'em come in an' wid wid him. So he tied his gallows round his waist an' posed to wrastle wid em. Oh, my belubbed, dat was de grandest' wrastlin'match de world ever saw! De stars ob de summer nite never looked down upon sich a site afo': "De fast fall was agin Jacob. Dey had got all de underholt on him. But ole Jacob got up an' went fo' dem shinin'men. Dis time Jacob cotch de underholt himself, an' deywas skeared ob him. So dey struck Jacob on de hip an' put it oten jint. It warnn't fair, belubbed, but dey done it all de same. Two agin one was one too many, an' dey arter lowed de ole patriark a show. But Jacob didn't kear for dat. He had got his migger up, an' when he got His hip in jint agin de way he went fo' dem shinin'men would hev made de wrastlers in dese days sick. Some ob you niggers is good wrastlers! I'll say dat much fo' you, fo'I use bin dar wil you myself an' made de groun' groan wid you. But dars none ob us knows what wrastlin'm is longside ob dat match out dar in front ob Jacob's tent. Dey wrastlied an' dey wrastlied, tolin'in all de nite long! Finally, belubbed, about de breakin' ob de day, ole Jacob recumlected de good ole holt wich never fails,' specially迪 dem dat he got de drop on it, an', my belubbed, de ole patriark sprung de trap an' cotch de inturn on dem shinin'men an' frod'd em fair an' square wid dar head, shoulder an' back a techin': "Arter Jacob hed frod'd 'em de shinin'men went in an'tuck breakfast wid him an' de ole patriark had got de blessin': "Dey was angels wien wrastled wid Jacob an' give him de blessin'. But do you 'spose Jacob would a got dat blessin'ef he hadn't wrastled to it? No, belubbed, he'd a stood no mo' chance ob gitten it den a flea in a barl of burnin't tar:" "Now we've bin a workin' heath at dis meet-in' fo'a long time, an'dar hain't been a single sinner convarsted yit! What amde reason ob dis failun?' Pears to me s'ef dar hain't no wrastlin' Jacobs in dis church.' Pears to me s'ef we're got a misery in de extremity ob de uniwarse is dislocucated! De sea ob fire am'enwellopin'd whole yeath! De day ob great tribulation am upon you, eh! "What is you gwine to do to-nite to prepare fo'dat yawful day? Come outen de jaws ob death! Come fo ward heah all you sinners an' wrastlin' Jacobs,git down in de dust an' ashes ob repentance an' wrastle fo'd blessin',fo'I tell you we'e a gwine to run dis meetin't to-nite on the old time plan." The Beard. It is reported that a recent order allows the British soldier to do as he pleases about shaving. He can now suffer a natural growth to conceal the least shapely part of his face and protect important organs of life. The permission marks the highest reach of the beard movement in England. Yet twenty-five years ago the fashion of shaving was so tyrauntical and bigoted that the Englishman who wore a beard was looked upon as revolutionary in politics and heretical in faith. Archbishop Tait,a most liberal pratele,when Bishop of London.forade a clergyman of the highest character to read prayers in his own church on the occasion of a confirmation,because he let the hair grow on his upper lip. Lord Chief Justice Bruce refused to hear a bearded young lawyerwho attempted to address him.Merchants forbade beards to their clerks.A London bank issued an edict that "Gentlemen were not to wear beards or mustaches during office hours." Congregatiob refused to hear the sermons of ministers who appeared as,doubtless the Master did.with their faces unshorn of their natural growth of hair. Even in the United States,the beard movement encountered fierce and foolish opposition.The late Dr.Hopkins of Vermont was one of the few clergymen who dared to go unshorn.Wren he was elected a Bishop of the Episcopal Church,many hints were given him that he should shave and thus show proper respect for the sacred office。他 declined to follow the suggestion,and now a score of members of the House of Bishops wear their beards. Men may not match women in the extravagance of their devotion to fashionbut,certainly,no brother has the right to cast a stone at his sister,seeing that the history of the beard records so many illustrations of male folly.She may be guilty of tight-lacing and thereby suffer from ill health and a disfigured form。但he,iif he shaves.exposes himself to throat diseases and possibly the weakest and most unsightly part of his face to public view,and that，too，against the efforts of nature to protect and hide it.

Marsh, to-day made a report on glucose to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. After stating what starch sugar is, how manufactured and chiefly used, the report says: The starch-sugar industry of the United States gives employment to twenty-nine factories, having an estimated capital of $5,000,000, consuming forty thousand bushels of corn per day and producing grain, sugar and glucose of an annual value of $10,-000,000. In Germany, in 1881-2, there were thirty-nine factories of this sort, consuming 70,000 tons of starch and producing 40,000 tons of starch sugar. A thorough investigation of the whole subject has been made by members of the academy, and as a result the following facts appear: That the manufacture of sugar from starch is a long-established industry, scientifically valuable and commercially important; that the processes employed at the present time are unobjectable in character and leave the product uncontaminated; that starch sugar thus made and sent into commerce is exceptional in purity and uniformity of composition and contains no injurious substances, and that having at best about only two-thirds the sweetening power of cane sugar, yet starch sugar is in no way inferior to cane sugar in healthfulness, there being no evidence before the commissioners that maize starch sugar, either in its normal condition or fermented, has any deleterious effects upon the system, even when taken in large quantities. The Friends. Mr. R. T. Bentley, a member of the estimable community of Quakers at Sandy Springs, Md., says he was severely affected by rheumatism in his right hand. Mr. Bentley applied St. Jacob's Oil, the great pain cure, and by its continued use, in a short time, was completely cured. When you have a cough or cold ask for Ammen's Cough Syrup. It will surely cure you. GAZETTE. JANRY 19, 1884. NO. 15 A ROYAL MOTHER-IN-LAW. A propos of Grace Greenwood, writes Lucy H. Hooper in the Philadelphia Telegraph, I have just finished reading her very charming "Life of Queen Victoria." It is a most interesting volume, and I heartily concur with her in her enthusiastic praises of Prince Albert. Till his eldest son grew up we scarcely realized what a paragon the Prince Consort really was—a young and handsome man, seated beside one of the greatest thrones of Europe, a prince out of a fairy tale for beauty and personal fascination, yet blameless and noble in his daily life as a virtuous woman. Ah, there are no such princes nowadays! The only real error of his life as the queen's husband was his adherence to the strict rules of the stiff court etiquette of Germany, and which he persuaded her to maintain—a fact that accounts in part for the intense unpopularity that was at one time his undeserved portion. He carried his intense pride of position so far as never to consent to receive any article from the hands of a servant. Even when he was out shooting he would not take his gun from one of the gamekeepers; it had to be transmitted to him through the medium of his gentlemen in waiting. His wife fully imbibed all his ideas and followed his example. Once, when Queen Victoria was on a visit to King Louis Phillippe, she expressed a desire one evening, immediately before retiring to rest, for a glass of water. It was brought to her on a golden salver by A Wind Storm. Franta A. B. n.a.d. About two o'clock on the morning of the 10th, one of those delightful storms from the northeast, known as a Santa Ana wind, began to blow with considerable violence, and by morning it was blowing a gale lively enough to please any Iowa man who ever enjoyed the pleasure of a first-class tornado. The streets of town looked badly deserted during the day, while the dust and sand went flying in clouds towards the ocean. Sign boards were strung promiscuously over town, loose boxes, barrels, and little outhouses not thoroughly anchored to the ground rolled and tumbled around in wild profusion, or confusion, and light, airy stables, sheds, etc., were gently spread out to rest, while huge pepper trees with their massive branches in some instances were split in two, and the general appearance of the town and suburbs was laughable in the extreme. The old settlers thought it a fearful storm, while the new ones felt wonderfully at home and natural like. Of course there are a host of little incidents we haven't learned yet, but we picked up a few. The lumber in the lumber yard was scattered from here to San Diego county. Geo. Irvine's barn, just built, had the roof blown nearly out of the township. The school room for the little fellows, near the large building in town, was knocked into the middle of next week and was rendered uninhabitable. He carried his intense pride of position so far as never to consent to receive any article from the hands of a servant. Even when he was out shooting he would not take his gun from one of the gamekeepers; it had to be transmitted to him through the medium of his gentlemen in waiting. His wife fully imbibed all his ideas and followed his example. Once, when Queen Victoria was on a visit to King Louis Philippe, she expressed a desire one evening, immediately before retiring to rest, for a glass of water. It was brought to her on a golden salver by one of the royal valets. The Queen refused to take the water, motioning its bearer from her with an imperious gesture. Louis Philippe noticed the action and perfectly comprehended its purport. He signed to one of his sons to offer the salver to Her Majesty. This was done, and the Queen then condescended to accept the desired draught. I think, too, that Queen Victoria has been much to blame in the stand which she has taken in regard to the marriages of the members of the collateral branches of the royal family. It is a well known fact she forced the poor Princess Mary of Cambridge to give up the man she sincerely loved and who loved her, an English nobleman, and likewise compelled her to give her hand to the Duke of Teck. More than once has the Queen been compelled to intervene in the conjugal affairs of this ill-assorted pair. And in more than one instance she has refused to receive at court German Princes who have married English ladies of rank because she did not approve of the gentlemen marrying beneath their station, thus taking sides with her birthright against her own country-women. But the most unprincely of Queen Victoria's defects is her meanness. She is economical to a degree that would be praiseworthy in a washerwoman earning seven shillings a week, but which is highly reprehensible in a sovereign receiving large revenues from the nation. That she should not care for dress is all well enough, but surely the Queen of England ought not to appear in public in soiled and shabby clothes, and that she does continually. Her invariable wedding gift to any young lady member of the British aristocracy entitled to receive a present on her wedding from those august hands is an India shawl. The reason for this invariable selection is said to be the fact that a portion of the tribute paid annually by the native Princes of India to their supreme sovereign, the Empress, always consists of a number of fine shawls, and so she need not disburse a penny when making her wedding present. And the injury that she has done to the commerce and tradespeople of London in her selfish seclusion during all these years are simply incalculable. Granted that she mourned for her lost husband (and doubtless she did, poor wife) with all the passionate abandonment due to such love and to such a loss. But a noble mind would have recognized a higher duty in the claims of her people, and when the formal period of morning was over would have comprehend- The lumber in the lumber yard was scattered from here to San Diego county. Geo. Irvine's barn, just built, had the roof blown nearly out of the township. The school room for the little fellows, near the large building in town, was knocked into the middle of next week and was rendered uninhabitable. The new Holiness Church, recently dedicated to the Lord, blew the other way. E. E. Edwards' shed stable scattered over the county, part falling on his new buggy, and the horse, we believe, blew into the swamp and lodged into a cecalyptus tree. His new hat went after the horse. Mr. Dorman's stable went to hunt the Holiness church. Harry Jason's windmill, also Gilmacher's and C. P. Schneider's mills gone to hunt Norman's stable. Judge Freeman's justice sign gone after the whole lot. And the mammoth tent is a whole wreck, more holy than righteous, a dilapidated reminiscence of by-gone days, while its owner has gone to the city for a new one. McFadden's slaughter house out south of town went where the woodbine twineth and Ben Williams' corncrib in the Swamp lost its roof which jumped seventy-five yards the first jump and at last accounts was still going. One amusing feature of the storm was five or six old ladies out on Fifth street trying to sort out their little out houses that had got inextricably mixed up in a huge drift against a board fence. The wind blow the cover off of a wagon belonging to E. Germain of Los Angeles near the depot when the horses ran away and scattered the wagon and outfit all over three townships. There wasn't enough of the wagon left to lay the foundation of a doll baby cart. A singular suit for alleged breach of promise has been brought in the Superior Court of Alameda county. Agnes H. Funston filed a complaint asking judgment for $50,-000 against William Kennedy, a farmer and dairyman who lives near Fruitvale, and who has a fair share of this world's goods. The complaint alleges that in the county of St. Joseph, State of Indiana, on or about February 15, 1856, twenty-eight years ago, defendant promised to marry plaintiff; that he renewed the promise many times subsequently up to about March 15, 1881; that confiding in his promises, she remained and now is, unmarried. The complaint further reveals that until about January 21, 1883, Miss Funston was at all times ready and willing to marry him, but that he always has failed and neglected to marry her, and on January 21, 1883, refused to marry her, and did on that day, so plaintiff alleges, marry one Catharine McCarty. In consequence of the The National through the President, made a report on glumer of Internal Revethat starch sugar is chiefly used, the res-sugar industry of the employment to twentyan estimated capital spending forty thousand and producing 40,000 A thorough investigation has been made by him, and as a result hear: That the manustarch is a long-establifically valuable and not; that the processes at time are unobjecured and leave the product starch sugar thus commerce is exceptional quality of composition and substances, and that only two-thirds the same sugar, yet starch prior to cane sugar in being no evidence before maize starch sugar, condition or fermented, acts upon the system, large quantities.

It will surely cure the Empress, always consists of a number of fine shawls, and so she need not disburse a penny when making her wedding present. And the injury that she has done to the commerce and tradespeople of London in her selfish seclusion during all these years are simply incalculable. Granted that she mourned for her lost husband (and doubtless she did, poor wife) with all the passionate abandonment due to such love and to such a loss. But a noble mind would have recognized a higher duty in the claims of her people, and when the formal period of mourning was over, would have comprehended the worth of self-abnegation on such a matter. And the poor Princess Beatrice—surely never did a Princess, young, sprightly and intelligent, lead such a doleful existence outside of the enchanted tower of fairy tale. Not for her are the splendors of a court ball, or the charms of a box at the opera, or even the luxury of a drive in the park in the height of the London season. She is kept closely chained to the side of her imperious, selfish mother, fulfilling the duties of a paid companion, with never a holiday, except, indeed, when she caught the rheumatism laterly, and had to go to Aix-les-Bains by order of physicians. And I am told that the poor Princess' malady was caused by the strict enforcement by the Queen of full dress daily at their family dinner. That constant wearing of a decalette corsage in all kinds of weather proved too much for the health of her unlucky daughter. And from the Queen's dictum no appeal is possible. She tyranizes over everybody about her, with the sole exception of the Duchess of Edinburgh. The haughty Russian Princess once turned upon her with the sharp remark, apropos of some question of precedence, "Madam, you forget that my father was an Emperor, while youra was not even a King." Now, I do not wish to decry Mrs. Lippincott's most charming volume, or to give the impression that I do not comprehend and appreciate the many high qualities of Queen Victoria. But I have been too much in England, and have heard too much about her to exactly look upon her as "a thing ensky'd ensainted." She has defects which are intolerable in private life—still more in that of a queen—and that have told, and are still telling, cruelly on her family and her immediate surroundings. And any prosperous American girl may thank her stars that Queen Victoria is neither her mother, her guardian, or her mother-in-law. Joseph, State of Indiana, on or about February 15, 1856, twenty-eight years ago, defendant promised to marry plaintiff; that he renewed the promise many times subsequently up to about March 15, 1881; that confiding in his promises, she remained and now is, unmarried. The complaint further reveals that until about January 21, 1883, Miss Funston was at all times ready and willing to marry him, but that he always has failed and neglected to marry her, and on January 21, 1883, refused to marry her, and did on that day, so plaintiff alleges, marry one Catharine McCarty. In consequence of the defendant's promise and the failure to carry it out, plaintiff alleges she has suffered great injury to her condition and prospects in life, which injury to her condition and prospects she appraises at £50,000, for which sum judgment is asked. At Nashville, Tenn., considerable excitement was caused by a fight between Judge Allen, of the Criminal Court, and Judge Ferris, of the County Court. The affair grew out of a remark made in the County Court by Judge Ferris. Each seized the other by the throat, and being separated, both drew knives, but were prevented from using them. Both stand high in the community. A dispatch from Cape Girardeau, Mo., says: Constable Loomis, of Bird Township, Cape Girardeau county, hired out to-day to the highest bidder at Jackson, the county seat, under the law governing the case, the services of three female vagrants for a term of three months. Their ages ranged from 18 to 45 years. San Francisco, May 1st, 1882.—Dear Sir? For the past two months I have been suffering from a severe cough and cold. A friend advised me to use Ammen's Cough Syrup. I did so, and was greatly benefited. I have now taken two large bottles, and am entirely cured. Grateful to you for placing so valuable a remedy on the market I am. Yours truly, M. J. Murphy, With Langley & Michaels, Wholesale Druggists. WATSONNILLE, Cal., Feb. 7th, 1882.—I recommend your Cough Syrup (Ammen's Cough Syrup) preferences to all others, as I know its marita. G. A. Morrhead, Druggist.
