Stakes in Trouble.

When wrong doers come to grief their
misfortunes are not apt to elicit much
sympathy, While human nature re-
mains what it is, the temptation to mock
at the calanities of public mischief
makers will often be too strong to be
resisted. Few will claim that this is the
proper course of proceeding. 1t can't
be justified under the Golden Rule, or
by the precepts of that charity which
is patient in suffering and overfowing
with much kindness. But right or
wrong, ,uen will experience an irrepressi-
BILE elation when retribution overtakes
those who delight in distressing their
neighbors and triumphing over mistor-
tune.
Hence it is that the troubles Of
STOKES of Tennessee are so generally re-

90 Rad Anomaly y

To Democrats it has always seemed q
burning disgrace that Southern whites
should be disfranchised and Southern
negroes given the ballot. Among Re-
publicans the same idea is gaining
ground, as the following paragraph
from the New York Times of Monday in
dicates:
Among the Union men of the South
even the Radical portion of them
there is q perception of bad anomaly
in a state of things under which the
highest prerogative of citizenship is de-
MED to thousands of the most wealthy,
intelligent and virtuous while it is
freely exercised by tens of thousands
who have lived all their lives until
very lately in the most debasing slavery
and benighted ignorance.

Religious Correspondence.

ST. mARHS, JUNG TO- lOOS.
Editors of the Register:
have no doubt but that numbers OF
your readers have wondered frequently,
in mind, and probably have asked the
question, how are the people of st.
Marys getting along since the revival
of last Marchi This wonder probably
arises from the evil predictions, denun-
Citations and prayers of the enemies to
the place. But we have reason to bless
God for this one thing: "The prayers
of the wicked avail nothing" We
can say for St. Marys that
she still improves both morally, and
socially. The Masons. Odd Fellows, Good
Templars and the church, which Is the
crown of all the rest, are using their ia
fIuepce thereto, and all are succeeding
finely and especially the church. Both
old and young who made profession at
the revival of religion above alluded to,
are becoming established in the ways OF
christianity. The class is in a healthy
condition spiritually. Last Sabbath we
had a glorious meeting in the forenoon,
and also in the afternoon. About forty
of the class pressed their way through
pelting rains to the churches. There
the Lord met with them ia their
prayers, and in their speaking,
after which we administered the sacra-
ment of the Lords Supper in the midst
of Pentecostal shower. Both old and
young Christians said that they felt bet
ter, and were more determined to press
on the way to Heaven than they ever
had felt before. How cheering to hear
those young people speak word before
the world in behalf of their Saviour.
May they remember that Christ will
not be ashamed to confess them before
the angels of God. We ask the prayers
of every good Christian brother and Sis
ter in their behalf, who may read this
