We clip from the Medium an account ??f how the citizens of Abbeville dealt with a negro man who insulted a white woman. The brute is branded for life,an outcast not only among whites but the better class of colored people as well. Following is the description of the event from a local viewpoint: "About 10 o'clock Friday night a crowd of men, estimated to be about too hard to was it* inunr.? papers," For summer diarrhoea in children always ffive Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and castor oil, and a speedy cure is certain. For sale by all dealers. 200,gathered at the jail and demanded the negro (Bob Davis, accused of making insulting proposals to a young white woman the previous afternoon). The officers in charge refused to give him up. The crowd then secured an axe and proceeded to knock down the doors. In the meantime they had promised they would not kill him. Talks were made to the crowd by several citizens in an effort to get them to delay taking any action until the arrival of Sheriff Lyon. No attention was paid to these appeals, however, and the negro was brought out. The crowd carried him beyond the baseball grounds, cut off his left ear and otherwise disfigured him so that he will not be mixed up in such affairs any more. After operating on him they carried him to a doctor, who sewed up his wounds, and then he was taken to his mother. He has orders to leave town as soon as he is well enough to go. It is believed that the treatment accorded him is the best means of ^ stopping such dastardly crimes,as he - " J Ml I f' is marked tor nie ana win n?\<r ample time to reflect over his misdeeds. This should be a warning to all the * rest of the race. The better element of the colored people approve of the treatment given him. There ^ will be nothing further done to the negro if he leaves here. If he -hould remain here there is no telling what would be done.?Milium.

Difficult Scriptures en Hell. A little Book selling at only ten cents, postpaid, Is having a very wide circulation?running up Into the millions. It contains some very startling Information respecting the meaning of the word Hell. It claims to demonstrate, both from the Hebrew and the Greek of our Bible, that Hell is NOT a place of eternal torment, but merely another name for the TOMB, the GRAVE, THE STATE OF DEATH. It affects to show that man was not rerteemwl from ? fnr-off Dlaee of eternal torture, but quotes the Scriptures proving that he wa& REDEEMED from the GRAVE at the cost of his Redeemer's LIFE and that the Scriptural Hope, both for the Church and the World, Is a resurrection hope based upon the dBath and resurrection of Jesus. The book Is certainly worth the reading. The Information It furnishes Is certainly valuable, far beyond Its trilling cost Order It at once from the Bible and Tract 8oclety, 17 Hicks street, Brooklyn.

The day after the funeral a visitor to the office found the editor and his stall' talking- about their late associate. "It has been a sad loss, friends." the visitor said, "a sad loss indeed." He sighed and looked about the room. "Ah. I am pleased t?? see," he went on. "that you commemorate the melancholy event by hanging ut crape." Opie Read frowned, "( "rape," he said."Where <! you see any crape?" "Over there." <aid the visitor pointing. 'Yrape be durned!" said Read, "That isn't crape.
