Beware of Hypocrisy.

Men are strange beings. Many of them
are passionately fond of that which tLeir
education and the usages Of respectable SO.
ciety, must of necessity condem. Some
are gamblers by nature, and yet the rela-
tions they hold to the worlds of business
and piety, will not admit of their crafty
ing the proclivity without limit. So they
play whist for half dimes with their friends
at home, and dabble in stocks and lotter
lies. Others are Just as pugnacious as Nor
risey or Heyer, but circumstances have
placed them in positions antagoniStical to
the prize ring, and they expend their COM
batitveness through other mediums than
their fists. Then there are people who
cannot bear even the presence of "sport-
ing man, and yet they fight cocks in their
back yards, and drive the fastest of fast
horses, all in a respectable way. They
would not be seen upon race course for
any amount Of money--racing Oper a course
is decidedly immoral, and it does not com.
port with the doctrines of the church. But
then race, when you are riding out with
your "better half" or your children, is
quite a different affair. You don't race
Tor mouey-you only urge your poor quad
rupeds-youts, because you paid an enor-
nous price for them, to torture aud mal.
treat as you please-beyond their speed,
to crafty your inordinate and ridiculous
vanity. Surely that is no sin! And so
you say to the miserable patron of the turf,
"StaId off, am heller than thou" when,
in reality, you are not halt so holy. There
are men who openly imbibe intoxicating
drinks to such an extent that reason deserts
them, and they are like composites and
udderleSs ships. "Ah," says the bibber
who possesses precisely the same desires
but gratifies them in private, "what .Hqfpr!
tunate creatures those -drunkArds are. ), |
thank God | am not like them.p And SO

filled with desires which proprety aud the
laws say must not be satisfied, mankind are
continually whipping the devil around the

which is equally culpable with the open and
undisguised vices of the non.hypocritical.
A pill is a pill. be it in rough mass Or coat

The Brooklyn Homicide,

Not only has liquor become so aduller-
ated With poisonous drugs of late as to
cause speedy death, but the places where
1t is soId-drinking saloons-seem also to
have become dangerous, and even fatal To-
calities,
The Brooklyn homicide, which stirred
so deeply the people of that city, and which
was sent as startling aud terrible item
over the wires to all parts of the Union,
was the murder of George II. Simonson ON
the steps of Story's drinking saloon. The
same day the wires brought intelligence.
Of terrible affray in Indianapois,in which
two citizens were shot, one dying shortly
after, aud the other still lingering, with
however, but little hope ofrecovery. This
alsc occurred in drinking saloon. In
both cases respectable citizens were the
victims, and rowdies and Whiskey tie
ieud that did the murder. Another peel
lisrity about these drinking saloon mm-
ders is the difficulty of ascertaiDing aud
arresting the murderers. In both casts
some of the parties escaped, and their
names cannot be ascertained.
1t is high time that respectable citizens"
should be informed what dangerous pla-
ees these drinking saloons are,-tnat they

JOE SMITHS FAMILY AT
NAJEOO.

A correspondent Of the Missouri r pub
lean writes that last summer be was q
Nsuyoo, anil conyersad with Nr. Bitomar
who Is married 10 JJe Smiths widow. Ile
says: | sat at the table with the family con
sisliug Of Nc. Bi.oman aud wife, and three
sousof Joe SMITH, the eldest sbout iwen
ty-ihree Or twenty four aud the second
about twenty, the third a lad Of some
twelve or thirteen years. From Mr.. Biio-
man learned that not ore Of tie family
believed 10 mounonism, and that bis wife,
formerly Mrs. Smith. had always been
opposed to them, as well as the boys.
was told that Joe Smith pfophesied some
two yesrs before this young lad was born
tha. a son was to be borne to him at or about
certain time, that at the time stated bis
wife did give birth to asJn. At that time
be also stated that his sons name would be
David, (noI Joe and that is the name Of
tie lad, for heard him answer to it,
Joe also said that bis mantle Of greatness
and prophecy would fall upon this son aud
lineal heir, David, who, be stated, would
be as wise aud powerful as David Of old.
The fact Of the birth Of this child following
according to Joe's prophecy strengthened
the belief that had already so strong a
hold upon his followers. Mrs. Bitoman
is a masculine, intelligent looking laiv, Of
forty-iiye or forty-seyen years. She is a
native Of N. Y. She has a splendid farm
some four miles from Nauyoo, which is
managed by her two eldest sons, while Da-
viI goes to school. About the two eldest
there is nothing remarkable to be seen.-
They are intelligent men, Of large size, ,bu.
having nothing in their appearance betok-
ening them to be prophets or "sons Of a
prophet" To their mother they are said
to 10 very much atiaehed and very kind.
David is uncomonly intelligent lad, of mas
siye forehead, and bright expressive eyes.
His step-fahter intinaled that lie cares as
little about Molmons and Mormouism as
one that has never belrd the names
Notwithstanding that thousands of the
followers of his father believe him to be a
great high priest, prophet and seer (in
eubryo,) de-. lie knows that they wor.
ship his name equal to that Of Jesus Christ !;
and yet, l am told, the lad is too intelligent
to allow it to make any impression upon
him. Probably the fact of all the family
being unbeIievers in it is the cause. The
following incident learned from a gentle
man residing in Nauvoo:
Thot Joe was killed in Jail, some fifteen
miles from home. his wife and sou took
possession of his body, and to prevent tie
rabLle from getting itthey raised the floor
Of the dining room, and digging grave,
buried the remains there, where they still
remain. This story, whether true or hot,
is generally believed in Nauvoo.

Maria Fsrina made in Prussia, and We
have inha'el the aroma Of the purest
doral essence ever prepared in this country
Murray & Lanmau's Florida Water
Unless prejudice in favor Of = home art CO
perverts our judgment, the latter is the
superior perfume. Il is less pungent,
more delicate, and equally lasting. This
opinion comedies with that Of our lady
acquaintarces, and as the finely orsaniz a
nervous system Of the sex renders them
the very bet authorities in such matters,
We consider the rule "made absolute" as
The lawyers say. 1t is not exactly poetical
to mingls pecunialy considerations with
The breath Of flowers, but perhaps It may
not be amiss to hint for the information
Of those who are fond Of dollars as well as
scents, that the Florida Water is much
less costly than the German or even TIE
French Eau de Cologne.
There was a time when American
Iuxuries and eIegancies had small hJnor
in the land Of their manufacture; and our
fashionables recognized nothing as super
excellent in that line, that hal not the
foreign stamp. But we believe the day
when the perfulners to royalty we're sup
posed 10 possess excluciyely the fragrance
creating faculty has passed away with otis
er funkeyisrns Of our ancestors. Besides,
Murray d. Lanmau's Florida Water has
foreign reputation at least equal to that of
the yeritable Farina. Look atthe South Al d
Central American papers and you viii
see it quoted in the prices current as a sta
pie Of trade. The consumption in that
region,n Mexico,and in Cuba, is immense,
aud, in fact, it had reached the acme of
celebrity there, before the proprietors intro
duced it IN the United States. Ii is already
a standard article with our first class drug
gists, and its popularity is likely to inter-
fera seriously with the imporations Of
European Toilet Waters. "Comparisons
