[Wnshlngtim Capttet] ' It hns been lately decided by the highest Authority that the husband has bo right to his wife’s letters. This Is wise. It is wiping out the last remnant of the greatest brute once known to civilization as the hus band-at-cohimon-law. This creature was a relic of barbar ism. It came down to us from a pe riod that ante-dates the birth of Mary, the mother of God, when women were regarded as something inferior to man. And this in the face of heathen my thology and Christian records. With the heathens—grand old fellows they were, too—Jove shared his power with Juno ; and, while war and rou^ti work of all sorts had male gods to repre sent them, wisdom and the arts had goddesses, save and except Mercury, the god of thiev, s, and therefore the deity in ami about Washington. If we turn to the Hebrew chronicles, we find that Eve, our flist mother, was made from a fib of Adam. Therefore | Adam was only the raw material out of which this finer and more perfect article was manufactured. From the Same history we learn that Adam, though strong of body, was weak of mind and the women led him. The. women led him into a devil of a business, to be sute.

It was in this connection that we learned, while a law student, that the intricate difficulties of the law were not so much in the rule as in the ap plication of them. We were In the of fice of an attorney distinguished iu -■>. his day for his success before a Jury, • specially when he had an Irishman for a client and some ot that witty people on the panel. One day a Hi bernian, somewhat the worse or better from whisky, came in. •Where,’ he cried, ‘is the Daniel O’Connell uv Ameriky?’ * He is at court,’ we answered, i * Bad luck to that. I want him.’ ‘ You want some legal advice ?’ ‘ It’s the same I’m aft her.* * Well, I’m a lawyer ; I can give you the advice.’ ‘ You a lawyer 1’ he exclaimed, with -some contempt in hla voice; ‘be me soul, but I thought you was a dhirty dark H ^ * What’s the matter ? Ou what point do you seek advice ?’|4ire asked, with much dignity * I want me have seen the hemes of the people in foreign lands ; I have heard them talk of their condition and lot in life, and this is the main theme of * bought with mankind everywhere. As I listened to them I discovered why it i’s that the Switz r in his hut In the Alps, where the limit of vegetation is reached and the winter storm howls and rages around him, is happier than the Lal lan tenant on the beautiful plains of Lombardy, amidst the bloom and fra grance of perpetual summer. It is the the consciousness of the ownetship of a home, which, no matter how the storm rages, nobody can take from bint, nnd which bo fafi make happy in spite of the storm. I would say to every man, buy a home aW own it. If a windfall hns come to you, buy a home with it. If you have laid up enough by toil, buy a home. Buy it and sell jt not. Then the roecs that bloom are yours. The jessamine and the clematis that climb upon-lbe porch belong to you. You hav# planted them and seen them grow. When you -ue at work upon them you are work ing for yourselves nnd not for others. If children be there, then there are flowers within the house and without. Buy a home. Anderson Intelligencer: We notice la the News and Courier that Hugh Kane, one of the notorious Ladd mur derers, was arrested in Cbhrleftton on last Saturday for fighting in the City Hall eupiftre, and taken to the guard house, where he was released on ball. It will be recollected that Kane was wrested by the United States authori- tles fir-tn the State and taken Into cus tody by the United States MatsHal. commissioners, or as the advisory { board of the land commission, con- 1 spired together to cheat the State out I of the difference between the price ; they actually paid for the said land ‘and the amount they pretended to have psid, as charged tn the indictment. If tlie testimony then produced before them was sufficient to convince them | that-tho defendants should be,tried by i a (e-ttt jury for the offence charged against them they should find a true : bill, and, if not, should hold the matter 1 over witness would be sent before them.

New York, November 6.—A Panama lett-r, dated 3t. Salvador, October 20, says: At 6 o’clock on the evening of October 2J a severe earthquake was experienced in the village of JrreaTmpft and the nelghborifig towns In the de partment of Usultan. Nearly all the houses i^ Jacauape^ were destroyed. Many families were burled in therpins, particularly in the outskirt* of the town, where, the means of escape were confined to narrow streets. The last advices say that ten bodies had been recovered and many more are suppo sed tn be under the ruins. The towns Included in the disaster are Gauda- loupe Ntieva, Gaudaloupe Cblnameca an«i Usultan, Thecase, Rio Del Are na! and Santiago de Marla, which is entirely ruined trad some lives lost, a condition in which are also found Te-f capa. Triunfo and Sanbuena Ventura in Neuv Gaudaloupe and Chiaameca. The ruin is complete. Ijabor and Capital. Her® is a shoe shop. One man in the shop is always busily at work dur ing the day—always Industrious. In the evening be goes courting a good, nice girl. There are five other men in the shop who don’t do any such thing. They spend half of their working hours in loafing, and their evenings in dissipation. This first young man by and by puts out from the others and gets a boqt and shoe store of his own. Then he marries this girl. Soon he is able to take his wife out to ride of an evening. The five laborers, his former companions, who see him indulging in this Httie luxury, retire to a neighbor ing saloon and pass a resolution that tberi is an eternal struggle between labor And capital.

The Memphis Appeal appears in its old four-page form, and announces at until to-morrow, when anotfter ,t,e columns, “The Epidemic at ab Eud.” It hopes that by the Otb of November the business men of Memphis will be on the tide of prosperity again, and adds: “The c'aims of life are so many or so press ing that but little time can be spared for the Indulgence of the luxury of woe. The living claim and need our instant attention. Happy for us that it is so. Were it otherwise, grief would be a calamity only surpassed by the plague in which it had its origin.

Of myself a much higher reckoning must be made.” And this bring* us to the second part of the Biblical account of man which we find in the New Testament and which has a response in all human lan guage. What is it that lies behind the outward frame of man ? It is that which the Bible calls, in the largest sense of the word, his soul, the seat of all those intellectual and moral facul ties which makes him feel what he is, which, even when we look into the face of the living, we$lo not see, yet, when we look into rile face of a dead friend, we miss. This the bible calls his soul or self. In an outward frame we bear the image of the most degra ded men, while iu the spiritual, inner most being we share with God himself. It is the spiritual man which is con stantly going forward. While the bodily part of man remains the same, the intellectual part has advanced im mensely, Our happiness hinges not ou what our ancestors were one thousand years ago. Tbe real destiny of map depends not on the advance of his ma terial and Intellectual grandeur, but on bis moral nature, on what we are, on what we do, on what we admire, on what we love, on what we hate. There is something greater than tbe resur rection ot the body, and that is the im mortality of the soul. There is some thing greater than tbe immortality of the soul, and that Is the ever-living, quickening, vivifying power of tbe spirit. It is this doctrine of the supe riority of tbe spiritual nature of man above his physical nature which, as it is one safeguard against tbe material ism of the scientific lecture-room, la also our first and best safeguard against the materialism of the altar When for a thorn* turning life add hope pitched in a tone of so much strength and foitltude.
