FouR PERSONS POISONED At LONDON, N. H.-The
Manchester (N H. Mirror has the particulars of
poisoning case at London, in which Alexander
Moore is charged with poisoning bis wife, daughter,
son-in-law and servant girl all of whom are in a
dangerous situation. The original cause seems to
have been dissatisfaction in regard to some prop
erty left to his wife by a deceased son. He at
tempted to fire the house in which they lived, but
was prevented, and lodged in jail He got clear of
a trial through the efforts of his bondsmen. After
remaining away from hcme for awhile, he returned
several months ago, and has lived there since,
though not on very pleasant terms. About three
weeks since the family fell sick, seemingly with the
same complaint. They at once called to their as-
sistance their family physician, who was afterwards
discharged, and the services of another secured
from Concord. A careful investigation of the sew
eraI cases soon led to the conclusion that the
family was poisoned with white lead. a painter
in the neghborhood states that he furnished the
cused with nearly cup full about Thanksgiving
day, which he said he wanted to fill up cracks.
A careful analysis of portion of flour (about one
third of barrel still remaining) revealed unmis-
taxable evidence of lead. Upon the announce
ment of the physician that the Of the poison
had been ascertained, Moore was promptly ar
rested, and is now in custody. He will be taken
to Concord for trial. The Mirror states the ap-
rearance of the poisoned family to be truly heart
rending.

The Confessional.

Most religious denominations recognize in
some shape an obligation TO confess their
Sins. Some of them affect great horror at
the secret confessional, while in times of
peculiar religious excitement they some
times relieve their STUFFED bosoms of that
'perilous stuff which weighs upon the heart"
in public meetings, greatly to the delight of
scofiers, and some times causing great Scan
dal in the community. Probably most of
our religious readers have known of some
such occasions, though they most pertain to
small and primitive villages where the spirit
always moves more powerfully than where it
has been subd1ed by civilization,
THESE confessions sometimes make most
cruel exposures, dragging in people who
have repented of their sins, and destroying
the peace of innocent connections. 1t will
hardly be denied that if specific sins are to
be confessed at all to men, it should be done
under the secrery of the confessional. If it
may not be done there it had better not be
done at all. A case which slightly illus
trates the wrong to which other confessions
may be turned, is disclosed in the Burch case
at Chicago. After the separations, Mrs. Burch
sought consolation bypouring out her sorrow
in letter to her minister, which was full Of
those superlative terms of self-abasement
which the religious custom regards as evil
dence of state of extra holiness. But min
gled with her denunciations of herself as the
chief of sinners, and as having wandered far
from God, and done the things which she
ought not to have done, and other phrases
which are in use for purposes of humility,
were some which with the rest were capable
of being interpreted into confession of the
particular guilt which Mr.. Burch desires to
prove Consequently Mrs. Burch's secret
confession to her minister was delivered by
him to Mr.. Burch, and the lawyers are using
her generous contrition and humility before
God, to show chat she is unfit to be the wifi
| of Mr. Burch.

A Clerical Fire-Eater.

At presentation. of a. gold-headed cane
to Captain Berry, of the steamship Columbia,
at Charleston, for hosting the palmetto flag
on his vessel, the telegraphic report says:
"Rev. Mr.. Yates made speech on the oc-
casion, during which. he said that, if the
South required it, he would go into the fore
most ranks, with Bible in one hand and a
revolver in the other" -
The order in which the reverend gentle
man purposes to apply these weapons is
left to conjecture. Probably he means to
apply the revolver first, and then, with
the Bible, administer dying consolation
to the revolved sinner. This equip
ment is what st. Paul would call putting
on the Gospel armor. This manner of
preaching the word must give it great
power. 1t to be hoped that the reverend
Mr.. Yates will not wait for call from South
Carolina. Preachers are supposed to have q
divine call, and that is probably what he
really feels. Let the holy man start on his
mission at once for the conversion of sinners,
shooting them down first and then calling
them TO repentance. People are always
most penitent in drtieulo morris, aud there
fore sure way to conversion is to put them

The Bhton vs.. Bunttugs
a The ISohth Carolina idea of secession
seems 10 consist of raising enfhysiasr and
Palmetto fdgsl They seem 70 plaee vastly
more .confdehee in Palmetto flags than in
muscle. If they can only hoist Palmetto
flags enough, they think the dissolution of
the Union viii be accomplished. .-Gonse-
quentiy, there is great demand for low
priced bunting. Every, day there is . Giag-
raising and an immensedisplay Of er. .Ssnusiastn
over II and aIew quarts Of turpsnfine whisky.
whereupOh the reporter Cor ..ae Rsgociated
Press, who, Of coarse. discharges his duties
under nice reg.ard for tar and fathers and
such coustsrvative principles, telesraphs to
the y S'orth that South Carolina is virtually
out,of the Union, to the great joy of the
patriotic Democratic journals Of the North.
I When a Yankee trading-vessel in the port
of Charleston hoists the Palmetto flag, Il is
regarded as a foreign acknowledgment of
the Independence Of South Carolina, and il
makes the skipper immensely popular. Of
course the Yankee shippers are not slow to-
I avail themselves Of favors which can be had
by the expenditure of a few shilings for a
Palmetto wipe; and especially when it viii
relieve them from all the suspicious and
dangers which are peculiar to commerce with
Southern ports. Judging by the alaerity Of
the coasters in hoisting the Palmetto, the
/ Charleston people might suppose that the
Yankees were quite wild with secession en-
| thusiasm. r. .-..ae1r .f
This shows that all the annoyances which
| Northern vessels have experienced in South
ern ports may be avoided by little tact, and
that the peculiarities Of the South may
easily be turned to profit. A Boston brig,
belonging to brother of Caleb Gushing,
hoisted the Palmetto, and was freighted with
a great deal of enthusiasm; and now the
ladies of Charleston propose a. testimonial
to Caleb of silver miniature of the brig.
The steamship Columbia also made similar
investment, and the Captain was publicly
presented with gold-headed cane, and the
most enthusiastic speeches.
1t is customary for foreign vessels to bear
their own flags wherever they are, and if
South Carolina really was an Independent
nation she would not expect the vessels of
all other nations trading ct her ports to be-
come South Carolinian; but at present the
way to procure freight at Charleston is to
hoist Palmetto flag, and if the port only
had freights enough she could be supplied
with an unlimited quantity of Palmetto flags
by the shrewd Yankee shippers. Unfortu-
nately for the cause of Southern independ-
ence, freights are not abundant at Charles
ton, and there is great danger that the sup
ply of Palmetto flags in port will Decline in
which case, of course, the bonds ofthe Union
will strengthen in proportion. Atpresent
the secession movement seems suspended
entirely on the display of dry goods from tall
! poles.

southern UnIon.saxers.

II is pleasant to behold the exquisite con.
Bistency of the Union-saving politicians of
Kentucky. They meet, organize, break out
in strains of exalted patriotism, and then re-
solve: J. That South Carolina is most
wretchedly abused community, and has
abundant cause for secession; and q.
That if she shall secede, they will de-
vote themselves to the glorious task of catch
ing and bringing her back to the Union
again. This is the purport oftbe doings of a
recent Union-saying Convention in Grayson
County, and is fair sample of that species
of performance wherever it occurs. How
much the real friends Of the Union will feel
themselves indebted to those who enact these
farces it is impossible to tell but it is not at
all unlikely that, few months from this
time, this class of self-sacrifcing patriots will
become fully convinced that, but for their
exertions to keep it together, the entire ma
tionsl fabric would have incontinently gone
to pieces; and will claim to be rewarded ac-
cOrdingly.
Now we think differently. No PROPOSE
tion is more easily sustained than this that
if South Carolina has reasonable cause for
secession, she should seeede. 1t is her duty
to 60 out at once, leaving the ulterior conse-
quenees to take care of themselves. Not
only SO, but if these Kentucky Union n-savers
shall attempt to coerce her to remain, it will
be no more than proper on the part of the
Northern States to interpose in favor of the
free agency of South Carolina, and teach
those who would deprive her of her self-eyi
dent and inalienable rights their duty.
