MARCH 25TH, 190U.
THE 1IU8Y-U.OI) Y.
There is a certain bird. <1.>vonl nf
beauty, with which everyone is familiar.
It is loathed by everyone; it
never oings; is foul and unclean in its
habits; feeds on tbelilthy g:irlKi?e and
refuse or the earth. It is derpised and
detested pot only by huuian beiur
but even creatures of its kind lor ye jt
severely alone, and meet any riendly
advances it may make with, lighting
and cries of detestation.
This bird skims Krw..fully(?) ov?r
the most beautiful landscapes, hills
valleys or mountain peaks with now
a Hop and then a sai I, perfectly oblivious
to all of the beauties of nature
and the scenes that woul.l hold other
eyes entrnnccd. See it as it hovers in
the shimmering sunlight of the mid
heavens! surely it is not unmindful of
the beauties and glories of crea'ion!
Surely one gifted with such powers of
vision and locomotion must revel in
an aesthetic existence! But no, as it
sails ou, its eyes are not seeking for
beauty; it is unacquainted will: the lesp-nsive
throb of joy that beau .y and
truth awakens in others. There coines
a sudden change. The eye ercwhile
so seemingly blind, suddenly, in some
isolated nook or valley spies a piece of
carion, it hovers on even wing for a
moment and then darts upon its prey
with a gusto and a relish that is positively
sickening to decency
There is no need of iny naming this
bird. It will be instantly recognized
by everyone, from the chief cl araeteristic
of passing over the good, the pure
and the beautiful, to fenst upon the
lilt h ot the world, and - ,l 1
, ..... audi under
its tongue as a swee tmorsel. However
detestable and obnoxious this
bird may be, it lias its couuterpast
among human beings.
There are people actually more to
be detested#:?ml more to be avoided j
than the vulture. They have the!
same tastes in their mental and physical
constitutions that it, has in its
physical. They, also, exhib't a depravity
of soul and intellect tlie.tis
po-itively shocking to a niihd that is
well balanced and that is marked by a
feeling of compassion fot the shortW
^ 1 H ' have reference t genmThoino
^ the human vulture, better known by
the name of gossip, latter, or busybody.
Such a name as we too often
meet with, such a one as delights in
picking to pieces reputations and characters.
Instead of hunting for the
genius of ti uth, usefullness. and men-j
tul and spiritual boatity in mauk'nd
and trying to oj build it by enco.trL
aging and strengthening it, such ones
not only fail to give one credit for efforts
at rigbt-living and a-pirations |
toward nobility of soul, but tliey take j
a sickening delight i.i lay ing bare i
human weakness, and after stripping
oirall coverings, of bidding them up
to the scorn and urisympathelic gaze
of a, too often, uncharitable public.
The tt rtn gossip is usually applied to
one whose chief delight i-? in gadding
about and attending to everyone else's
business except his or Iter own; it lias
especial reference to luni who is always
on the look out for
hi in r j
moral an?l intellectual eyes of his <
neighbors while at the smie time lie
is Icaring around and | rodding people
with beams in his own eyes as ?arge
as telegraph poles. The gossip usually
possesses the tendency to talk over all
of the little, dirty ami trivial occurences
of the whole community as well a>
all of the small talk and rumors that
usually pervade the sccial atmosphere I
of a usual community or small town. |
There are two distinct classes of go.->sips
or busy-bodies. First, those
whose mental talibre are so small that
it is impossible for them to engage in
conversion upon topics of usefullness
and iniportance. 'i'neir mental
horizons are so limited that the rang'e I
tf topic s at their command is, confined
to the small affairs of their neiglibors
back yawls. 'I hey are incapable of in- |
lelleel and sensible c?-nv.nsalioii lieuce '
they are Coinpelltd t . rehash and | eddleoiil
(he vcibal garbage and w fuse j
that had liettirbe left in the ash heap >
of society. We have i.o won! o! ? ensure
fersi.rh; they eatiuot help themselves.
(iod created them with small
minds and they, I y constant indulgence
in such, have fastened upon
themselves such habits of thought
and speec h that Iney have become a.most.

you; we pity \oil, and from tin- bottom
of our hearts you have our most sincere
commii-Sfiutions. *
The second class of gossips excitsa
more baneful influence upon socie'y.
They are those w ho have menial rnpnbililits,
hot have protected them in
tlie many direction. They are those
persons who willfully and maliciously
circulate false reports up oi their
fellow creatures, hoping to hi quire
some | ersoiial benefit by so doing. 1
'J'he mot Ives lor sue.li aetiens are too
often personal selfishness, spite, or revenge.
Sui li a i haraeti r often time* (
lays hold upon innocent persons with
its tilth) tali.nsand trys by means of >
lies, insinuations and false sugges- (
tiulis to besmirch, truth, innocence and j
virtue itself. These persons work on
derhandedly. They are nmrnl as well '
as physical cowwaids, afraid to a?- 1
fe. _
ume the responsibility of their words, (
o they work, not by direct statement* >
nit l>y dark insinuations. All of us
mow too well how such methods work. J
Reports thus started can never be
jvertaken. The farther they go the j,
larger they grow, until reputation
is gone, and character gives away beneath
the unjust strain. This class
of gossips is to be feared and fought
by all people who have regard for jti
truth and decency. Such people are 1,1
not lit to assiciute with (respectahiiity,
their pi oper sphere is with lb*
jackals and hyenas of the desc'

President Roosevelt is going West

the word ?o "Teddy the Terrible" that
there is "nothing doing" in this neck
of the woods for him.
The Senate of the United States lias
adjourned and did not confitm the appointment
of Cruni, but no one need
feel uneasy, President Roosevelt will
show his hand and make a recess appointment,
just to let us see that lie

the Senate in Hfter sciiool' . Mr
tlanna was overjoyed because the
President's purpose of putting tl?e
provision" of the Cuban treaty into
immediate effect had been defeated.
V
Senator Morgan maintaned his attitude
of hostility to the Colombian
Canal treaty, as framed, to the lust aad
closed the debate lor the opposition
with a remarkably strong and lucid
speech outlining the weakness of the
convention. Senator Morgan has
made a remnrki.ble and a sincere fight
against the treaty. Appreciating that
his posit on was unpopular he disregarded
all consideration of personal
glory and overlooked all criticism,
Agisting almost single handed a great
battle. Four senators voted with him
against the treaty although four others
were paired against it. Those
voting nay were Morgan, Pettus, Daniel,
Martin and Teller an I tho<e paired
against the agreement were Senators
Culberson, Dubois, McLaurin and
Money.
The very limited influence which
the Piesid'-nt exerts in the Senate was
again demonstrated at the special
sessions when two nominations in
which he wax specially interested
failed of con Urination. Mr. Roosevelt
used every influence at his command
to secure the confirmation of r.C'rum
the negr.i whom he nominated during
iIn* n gular session for Collector of the
Port of Charleston, S. C ,nnd of William
Michael Byrne, the Addtcks can
didate resigned his position asUui'ed
States Attorney to defeat th* reelection
of Representative?now Senator
Hall of Deleware. Byrne succeeded
in defeating Hall ami electing a democrat
to the House from Ball s district,
hut having failed of election pi nine If
he promptly asked to be re'ns'ated as
1'nited States Attorney. During!
the regular seession Mr Roosevelt
nominated him and his nomination
was unfavorably reported by the Judiciary
comittee of which Senator Iloar
is chairman. As soon as the Senate
met in special session the President
sent in these two nominations again.
The Judiciary committee again reported
Byrne's nnminati"ii adversely and
the Commerce committee refused to
again consider Crum's nomination.
Mr Roosevelt wanted to force a vote
of the entire Senate and having failed
it is sud that he will appoint both
men as recess appointments.
