The Law of Epidemics.

The Albany Argus is responsible for the
following:
1t will be noticed that the cholera did not
make its appearance in this State, until the
Legislature adjourned. 1t is a merciful law
of Providence that never permits two
plaques to scourge people at the same
time.
1t is true that Congress is still in session /;
and this might appear to invalidate the gen
eral rule. But it is noticeable that when
the cholera ragged everywhere during its
last visitation, it spared the Capital of the
Union. Not that the city is cleanly whole
some; on the contrary, the IRtelligencer
says: Gentlemen from the country uni
formly inveigh about the stenches which
assail them at every turn, an official of rank
at the lnterior;Department whose olfactory
nerves are quite sensitive, counts as high
as seventeen offensive odors in passing the
length of the avenue.''
The reason is that Heaven will not per-
NIT the cholera and Congress to prevail at
once I'm the same suffering community. We
do not know which men will pray for or
which they will most deprecate. We know
that there are disinfectants and precautions
that mitigate the virulence of the Asiatic
plague. The African epidemic has thus far
proved to be beyond the power of medicine
or hygiene.

The Two-Thirds Vote.

Republicans felicitate themselves on the
usurped power which enables them to pass
a law over the Presidential veto. They
boast a majority of two-thirds over the
adherents of the Constitution in Congress.
How do they keep this preponderance of
power? The question is easily answered.
1t is by disfranchising one-third of the
Sovereign States of the Federal Union, and
by the expulsion from their seats in either
branch of Congress of patriotic statesmen
whose talents are dangerous, and whose
denunciations of despotism are formidable.
Hence this boasted majority is not legiti-
mate. 1t is maintained by usurpation, and
by that violence whose maxim ever is that
'might makes right"
But there is two-thirds vote which
ought to be. and which must, soon or late,
by one mode, if not by another be made
practical and effective. Two-thirds of the
whole people of the United States--two-
thirds of all the voters of the country-re-
gard loyalty to Republicanism as treason
against the Constitution, and as soon as
they can be heard they win veto the veto
ers. just rs soon as they attain their Con-
stitutional, blood-bOught, and hereditary
right of suffrage and representation, they
will sweep from the statute books every en-
actment of Black Republicanism which de-
files their pages, and undo, as far as is pos
sible, all that has been done during the
horrid years of the American Reign offer
ror. We are at q loss to decide whether il
is creditable to the patriotic forbearance, OF
derogatory to the spirit and courage of the
American people, that they submit so long
and so tamely to the bloody usIrpation
which is over them - Marion Democrat.

THE BANK ROBBERY AT CADIz.-A few
days before the bank robbery at Cadiz, five
or six men were In Wellsburg, West Vir-
ginia, twenty-five miles from Cadiz, and
made an attempt to rob the bank at that
place. The Wheeling Intelligencer says the
man employed TO sweep the bank every
morning was also night watchman in a
paper mill. He would leave the mill early
to open the bank, which the robbers doubt
less noticed, and adopted the following
plan: They went to the paper mill at two
o'clock in the morning and conducted the
night watchman to the door of the bank,
threatening his life If he made any noise or
did not try to get the watchman in the
bank 10 open the door. He did as they
requested. but the man inside of the build
ing, believing something was wrong. and
knowing 1t was too early TO open, refused
TO open the door. They carried the prlso-
ner back 10 the mill, bueked and gagged
him, and went, probably, TO Cadiz, where
other golden opportunities awaited them.

The New Liquor Law in New York.

Ahc Now hlquOr Law III new OrKs
The late Republican Legislature of New
York passed stringent license and Sunday
law, which is creating good deal of feel
Ing In that city, and especially among the
Germans. The New York World says:
'The Germans are bitterly incensed
against the (new excisel law because it for
bids them drinking their beer on Sundays.
Generally a hard-working people, Sunday
is their only holiday and they can not see
the justice of closing their gardens and
depriying them of what they deem an inno-
cent enjoyment to satisfy religious scruples
which they do not share. During the sum
mer season not less than 10000 Germans
frequent the beer-gardens in and near the
city. 1t Is folly TO suppose that this great
mass of people win forego their usual en-
ioyments at the bidding Of any commission,
however respectable"

From the Christian Advocate and Journal
Unhapphy Parents.

1t were an endless task TO investigate
all the causes which render parents un-
happy. Sickness, bereavement, aud pow
erty are sources of sorrow, but have their
mitigations sickness may be endured when
hope suggests recovery death may lose
its sting through Him who hath conquered
it; while poverty may be the fore-runner
of wealth. But the sorrow which ungod-
ly children bring to the parental heart,
while the keenest Of all ordinary grief, has
less of mitigation, because atfording less
hope. The law of cause and effect is so
rigid that, when applied to disobedent and
faithless youth, the future man, with his
wicked and wasteful life, is eyermore fixed
in the parents mind.
So nearly universal in this source of
parental grief, that those parents who
have JOY unalloyed in their children form
an exception in the community. Throw
off those disguises which pride and inge-
disorders, and what heartburnings and
wailings would be discovered, alike among
the high and lowly. 1t were hard to say
among which class the greater misery pre-
walls. For though the children of the poor
are oftener in contact with evil associations
yet among the rich the want of motive to
industry begets idleness, and idleness
crime. Nor is this source of sorrow con-
fined to the worldly, where disobedience
to God naturally begets disobedience to
parents. Unfortunately, our religious COM
munities are filed with examples where
households are made wretched by ungodly
children. How few who are not mourning
over truant son, or gay and disobe-
dient daughter! How often, too, is it the
case that the usefulness of Christian pa-
rents is nearly destroyed by the reproach
which wayward children bring upon them
With what depth of modification do they
receive word of some disreputable act of
a child, SO that because of anguish sleep
departs from their eyes!
How many illustrations will at once
occur to you, reader, as they do to my own
mind One may be stated since the article
will never come under the eye of the pa
rents. In far distant village 1 know a
pious man, whose wife and daughter were
united with him in Church relation, bu,
his son was wayward. Running with other
village boys by day and night, he, o,
course, contracted their habits, SO that in
early youth he smoked, and swore, and
drank. The father was a deacon and su-
perintendent. How much of his influence
was neutralized by the constant example
of that sonl The boy, at seventeen, was a
sot, was finally sent to sea, and, for years,
no tidings were received by the family.

Green, and some Of his and Lincoln's
special friends at last tried their powers.
They succeeded in throwing Lincoln off
his guard by robbing him of his suspicious.
In September he went down to Bolin
Green's in consequence Of the pressure
brought to bear upon him, and in week
or ten days Bolin's humor and generous
hospitality, aided by womanly sympathy
and tenderness, made Mr.. Lincoln himself
again. He was visited daily by men, wo-
men, boys and girls, whose conversation,
stories, Jokes, witticisms, fun and sport,
soon reused up the man, thus enabling him
temporarily to throw off sorrow, pain and
anxiety. They walked over the hills
with him, danced for him, read for him,
laughed for him, and amused him in many
ways. He got well and bade adieu for a
sho,t season to BoIin's kind roof and gem
erous hospitality. Mrs. Bolin Green still
lives, God bless her: and survives her
husband and their guest. Mr.. Lincoln
went back to New Salem, as supposed, a
changed man. This was in September,
1885. He again read and re-read the
poem called =" Immortality" He saw new
beauties in it. He committed il to memo
