WE PASS FOR WHAT WE AREA
man passes for what he is worth. Very
idle is all curiosity concerning other
peoples estimate of us, and all fear for
remaining unknown is not less so. If a
man knows that he can do anything
knows that he can do it better than any
one else-he has a pledge of acknowl-
edgement of that fact by all persons.
The world is full of Judgment days, and
into every engagement that man en-
tiers, into every action that he attempts,
he is gagged and stamped. In every
troop of boys that hoop and run in each
yard and square, new conner is well
and accurately weighed in the course of
a few days and stamped with his right
number as if he had undergone for
NAL trial of his speed and temper. A
stranger comes from distant school,
with better dress, trinkets in his pock-
cts, with airs and pretensions. An older
boy says, TITS of no use, we shall find
him out tomorrow. - Ralph Waldo

TRUTH STRANGER THAN FICTION.

We noticed few days ago, says the
Columbus Miss. Sentinel, the killing
of a man named Barrier by man named
ty, Miss. Since then we have heard
he,particu lars from a member of the
Columbus bar, who has recently been
near the scene of blood, and the facts
make it one of the most terrible TRACE
dies that has ever occurred in the sec
ton. 1t seems that young Barrier was
engaged to be married to one of the
most respectable and beautiful girls in
the country. The day before the day
set for the marriage Barrier met young
Wilson in the street, and requested him
to go with him to the Probate office to
get his marriage license. He did So
The license was obtained and Barrier
left the Office. Wilson also cladestinely
obtained license to marry the same
girl. The company had assembled at
the time and place appointed for the cele
bration of the nuptials, and just as all
things were ready the lady was reported
very i'll. Chloroform, morphine, and
other Opiates We're administered to her
and in a few hours she was sufficiently
revived, and the marriage VOWS were Ia
ken. None knew at the time the cause
of her sudden sickness. 1t was after
wards ascertained that Wilson had sent
her message not to marry Barrier
The communication so much affected
her that she became CHASTITY pale and
tainted. After the ceremony, rs it is
the custom i'll that country, the new
husband carried his bride TO his humble
home. That night the pair, after hav-
ing retired to the bridal chamber, We're
aroused by several friends of wilson,
and one of them demanded an inter-
view with the bride. She saw him. and
in few moments informed her hus-
band that she intended to return to her
fathers house. Immediately afterwards
she filed bill of divorce alleging that
she married Barrier while under the in
ilucnce of opiates.
a few days after, the Circuit Court
was to meet, and on the first day of the
Court a large crowd collected at the
county town. Before noon the crowd
was seen rushing to one point where
something unusual was TRANSPORTING
Barrier was attracted, and approached
the scene of excitement, when he dis
covered Wilson beating with a large
stick the minister, Mr.. Seal, who, a few
days before had performed the marri-
age ceremony between himselfand Miss
White. AS he approached Wilson
turned, and accosting him, said: "Do
you take up this difficulty" Barrier
replied, 81 do" AT this revolvers were
drawn and five shots exchanged. Bar
rier was killed dead on the spot, and
Wilson dangerously, but not MORALLY
wounded. Thus ended the terrible
tragedy of real life.

The New York Herald, of July
10th, says, "the Tammany Conven-
vention decided that Grant should
be President" and declares its sup
port for the gallant soldier. The
Convention, however, did not decide
that Grant should be President, but
the people who love honesty, patriot
ism, craftsmanship, .valor, and gent
us, decided that he should be Presi-
dent. All that is required is to re.
cord the vote. The gallant and un.
corruptible soldier has implanted in
the hearts of the American people
such solid reverence for his many
noble and sterling qualities, that no
efforts, or combinations of the De-
mocracy, can undo the verdict of the
nation in its estimate of his fitness
for the highest Office IN the country.
