SLASDER.-If YOU find a man circulating
malicious reports about his neighbors, it may
be set dSwn as an inviolable rule that any such
person is dishonest. Not only dishonest, but
from his infamous disposition, dangerous to
all with whom he may be acquainted. lie cir
culatcs false impressions, and sets people upon
an erroneous course Of judgment and conduct
in respect to others, which may frequently be
ruinous to their prosperity. It does general
injury to society, more than to the party SIAN
dered, as it destroys confidence. The man
who is guilty Of circulating malicious reports
must necessarily be deceitful, and, therefore,
dishonest; he must be abandoned to every
principle Of moral feeling. In ancient times,
when man was convicted Of being Islander.
or, he was stoned to death as being danger
and curse to the whole community. In mod
ern times there&s even better remedy than
this-it is to cease all association with such
characters. Treat them like lepers, abandon
them to their own kind, which is social death,
one by which they serve as an example to
others. This rule is observed among all intel
lgent people, and should be invariably carried
out in every place by all good citizens.
