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. Rut that came
from the lack of training, which Eve,
edl-hfr door in w!d an ax, and I gave
Dennis a devil of a baton.’
* Did you g**t your wifs?'*
-<* She wasn’t there, but Dennis was,
an* I gave oceashua for the docther,
praste an’ undertaker all at once, I
did.’
Our first client discovered, when
looking at bars from the county jail,
In contemplation of the penitentiary^
that it was a ‘dhirty dark,* anti not
the ‘Daniel O’Connell uv Amerlky,’^
sifter all, whose advice ho bad followed.

Horace Greeley'said ‘‘Go West;”
but. George Barstow gave better ad
vice In a speech ut Metropolitan Tem
ple. He said that every man should
own his home, if he cun. That phil
osophy which tells a man to drift on
over the ocean of this unceitaln life
without 3 home of his own, is wrong.
The man who does not own his home
is like a ship out on the open sea at
the hazards of the storm. The Than
who owhs his home is like a ship that

safe harbor.. One man should no more
be content to live in another man’s

Evidence Discovered of h 1m Cora-
pllclty la the Fumunv Hell-
Hole dwindle.
A Correspondent writing from Col
umbia to .the New$ and Oourtep, under
date of November 6, sttys: The
Court of General Sessions met at 10
a, m The ca*e of the State vs. Sallie
Williams, murder, Was tried ; verdicl,
not guilty. At the conclusion of this
cause the grand pury was calHM, and
a little ripple of excitement occasioned
by the solicitor handing to the grand
Jury (Julie a bulky looking Indictment
in the caso, of the State Vo. D. H.
Chamberlain et al., charging them
with conspiracy to cheat the State.
The solicitor stated that he had two
wiiuesseti—Messrs. Deri m as tiro and
Cochran—who would now go before
them, and if their evidence was not
considered sufficient ho had anothep
whom he expected to-morrow morning.
Judge Pressley said to the grand
jury that they had all doubtless beard
that the State, some years ago, had
appropriated n large sum of money
for the purchase of homfs fur colored
men. Ho told the Jury that theyraust
disregard everything that they had
heard about this land commission
business, and must direct their Inves-
ttgarioft- exehjeiveiy to determining
whether the persons charged la the In
dictment-, C. P. Leslie, D. H. Chamber-
luin, H. U. Kimpton and Mies G. Par
ker, pad conspired to cheat the State
by purchasing a tract of land in
Charleston county, for which they ac-
and years the Christian Church be
lieved that the eternal weal nr wee of
the sotil depended upon the immersion
of the human body In a bath or basin,
when the regeneration of nations In
the Middle Ages depended on tbs
preservatlonof dead bones or a frag-
ment of wood, these were all so many
attempts to sink ths spiritual In the
material. It was the story of ths-
Refornmtjon to tell that thn slgnifl.
cance of the sacred rites consisted not
in tbs material bat Iq^fee moral ear
sense, not Is the outward tokens, but
In the soul and spirit, that, work them.
This is declared In tbe Bible from the
first to last. Wherever the mind of
the worshipper, whether In Catholic
or Protestant churches, Is fixed on the
ootwai# Instead of the essential, the
(Incidental Instead of the inward, the
temporary instead of the eternal, in
that proportion the original eplrlt of
the Gospel Is exchanged for the Judaic
custom. Wherever, whether in Cath
olic or Protestent churches, whether
In heathen orChrletian lands, the mag
ical gives place to the reasonable, the
holy and living sacrifice of human be-
isg to God, tfiere, Trom the rising df
the sun to the going down of the same,
the true incense of moral principle Is
offered by which alone roan can hope
to prevail wiih his Maker.

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

The ruin is complete.

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.

“Do what you like with my body,”
said the ancient philosopher, “ my
body is not me. 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

The Pennsylvanians have to elect
over one thousand officials this year,
and they have three thousand candi
dates to select from. It is thesame
way in all the other States whenever
an election is to be held. It is safe to
say that the office-seeking profession Tert t®^k)® n k lb_%
has become a burden which can ftafely* 4 t®rm -two mllefc
be dispensed with. In a republic the
theory is that men must be called from
their “bon<st toll” to office by ths
people. Tbe fact Is, that the “ hopeet >
toll ” Is left to taks care of Itself aod
the man pushes bis way into office
ofteoest not tbe choice of tbe people.
