There is not a member of the bar who does not favor the re-ap- pointment of Judge Miller. Be carefal what you say and to whom you say it.

Wells on the 3ist. — A noble woman who was com. pelled to leave her home because she denounced outrages apon her people, will speak Monday October 31s at the Metropolitan church. me Be STREWING FLOWERS. What is the good of strewing fiowers on the dead? Why not strew them on the living? A pot of flowers sent to a sick room will do some real good, but what good ean the most profuse gift of flowers do on @ corps? Another thing, why wait till death to show appreciation, effec- tion or reverence? If a person is entitled to a big consideration of | tee flowers and profuse newspaper ar- ticles, prose and poetry after they have ceased to exist, it stands in reason that they mast have been entitled to something while living. It is absolutely trae that the dead cannot speak, they cannot thank you. Speak to the living, do something for them while here. GREAT HAVE BKEN THE CHANGES. Thirty-five years ago the cath- olic church was forbidden a parade in a large city in this country, namely Cincinoati, and when the attempt was made a fierce riot broke out, churches, asylums, houses of refuge were sacked pill- aged aud barred and the ety of bo ‘‘popery,” was the sigual that drew out the American know notbe ing spirit aud mobs in Baltimore, Cincinnati and Philadelphia, made it trouble for a roman catholic.

Thirty years ago men and women were Chained togather aud paraded in the public streets of this city, oa their way to Alexandria, Rich- mond and cities in the South to te sold to the bighest bidder.

It was a great sight to see this|’ Leader is coming to be a power in; Church recogniz: in full, ina pub slic parade, as it does in its inner fcouncils, and administrative aud religious affairs, its charity benev- olence and protection, hitherto slave and despised race. THEN THERE WAS NO BRUTALITY. One of the leading thinkers in this commanity, commending on the excessive brutality of the po- lice force to certain class of people remarked, incidentally that when Mr. Sumner, Mr. Conkling and Gen. Logan were in public life, and and Father Barrotta in charge of St. Augustine church there was no such thingas “brutal force” on the partof the police force of this city, well thatis true and at the same time in this connection, } that police force then, was made up of a very Qifferent class from this one we have to day. ‘wilmore’s Band has tendered the post- fon of leader to D.
