The Rev. Thomas p Hunt stated in his
lecture. on Tuesday evening. at The Rev. Mr..
Tusiin's Church. that, If what is called The
Common Law is in force in the District, those
who sold liquor to man known to be in a
slate OF mania from intemperance, were an
swerable for the consequences, whatever they
were a. partciceps criminis. And that Il the
facts could be clearly established before the
court, the Judge would instruct the jury to
bring in verdict of guilty OF man-slaguhier
against all such as had any agency in the
death of McC-. .k H
This is startling doctrine, and seems TO be
according to moral right and justice Would
il not be well to call upon the Prosecuting At
torney to institute suit against those who sold
liquor 10 such persons as have committed un-
lawful acts, and try the law?
We understand that some gentlemen are
thinking seriously of doing SO. If the law does
hold such men guilty, but few of the liquor
sellers will escape birth in the House where
men find time to repent of their sins on Green
Leaf Point.

.sTHE FIRE BUCKET

W An intelligent private correspondent says
"Your Fountain has kept SO full, that
have thought il supererogatory to send my
little fire bucket Of ,Satsr to your aid. You
have the right spirit. and hope the wrong
SPIRIT will be hors de combat ere long,
Very good, brother. But see! Our Foun-
tain is "kept fulp' by the contributions Of our
friends who have the "righ, piris;p and every
one who wishes 10 see it full should send on
his "li,,e fire bucket Of water.o No matter
fit run over II will only make the stream
from the Fountain the more efficient in cheer
ing and refreshing those who abide in the val
leys along which it flows. Therefore TO our
beloved friend referrsd 10, and to all Others
who have .:little fire buckets" we say, fill
them with the pure water of virtue and truth,
and send them TO US. We will empty them
into the Fountain, and, our word for it, you
will have cause to rejoice that you contributed
TO our aid. Thus shall we bring about the de-
sired result Of our amiable brother, and ''the
wrong spirit will be hors de combat ere long"
SO mote il be.

TERRIBLE CALAMITY.

4 Fl i
The Fayetteville, Tenn. Journal reports the
following terrible calamity
s'On the ed inst, at night, an awful calam-
ty befel Mr.. James Gill, worthy citizen of our
county, living some 1907 IA miles from this
place. II appears that Mr.. Gill had been en-
gagged in distiing peach brandy, and on the
night above mentioned was attempting TO store
il away by emptying it into barrel in the Gel
lar; the brandy being warm, took fire from the
candle which he had with him, and instantly
communicated to the keg, which bursted. tear
ing up portion Of the floor over head, filling
the cellar with flaming sheet OF liquid fire,
which communicated to the house and wrap
ped il in flames before il was possible for all
the family to escape out Of the house. One of
the children was consumed in the house, and
two others so badly burned as to have caused
their death since, and the fourth child received
severe burns, rendering il doubtful whether it
will recover or not. Mr.. Gill himself was also
badly burned.
We are horror striker at such disasters, but
what is life in this instance compared with the
havoc, which peach brandy, and other liquors
designed to set on fire the course of nature, are
continually, but silently working on all around
US! Widowed fathers. deserted homes, bereav-
ed wives, pinlng, starving, dying children =
Poor Mr.. Gill his loss was terrible-but how
incalculable the loss OF precious life wrought
by just such business as he was engaged in !!

RETIREMENT.

How sweet is retirement When the he art
is burdened with anxiety, when the soul is
rung with anguish at the sudden and unexpec-
ted flush of disappointed hopes-what sure
remedy Tor all bitterness of feeling. How hap
py to turn to some lone spot, unobserved by
any save that All Seeing eye--far from the
haunts Of men, and there, in humbleness Of
attitude, with uplifted hands, and streaming
eyes, to pour forth the souls deep complaint TO
that kind Being, who 'seeth in secret and re
wardeth openly Just in proportion as we
throw aside the cares of The world, the per-
plexities of life, and advance in prayer towards
God-just in that proportion will he advance
towards US. ii ataE uf#lat haE
Leave all, then, gentle mourner, and know
that it is the SOUPS highest privilege to hold
communion with its God. And when the
world appears cheerless, cold, and dreary--
then go to Jesus He can mitigate thy sorrow,

and gloomy pathway. 3fn.4 ta1g te4a
