from its undoubted security and the

it offers features superior to many OF

"about 43 years the sum of about 10

life for 1900 dollars, leaving his family
independent of the cold charities of the
world, and securing to them, with
what their labor would contribute, ease

CHARLESTON. s. @. July 81.
A negro riot, which at one time
threatened very serious consequences,
occurred last night on the occasion of
the departure of visiting Baseball
Club from Savannah. The Club was
accompanied by brass band, COM
posed of colored men, who were said
to be Democrats. As the Club was
leaving in procession for the Savannah
they were attacked with sticks, stones
and brickbats by mob of several hum
bred men. Several shots were fired on
both sides. Mayor Pillsbury was on
the ground, but it is said he was power
less to quell the riot, and was compell-
ed to call on Major Ogelsby for the
assistance of the United States troops.
The Club was then escorted to the
boat between platoons of the Eighth
Infantry. followed by large crowd Of
yelling and infatuated negroes, throw
ing stones, and compelling the soldiers
at intervals to face about and threaten
to fire.

Singular Railroad Accident.

AS the train that left Jersey City at
6 p. m. yesterday was passing the Cen
tire street depot in Newark, at speed
of about 20 miles an hour, the locomo-
tive turned upon the switch to take the
left-hand track. The train came to q
sudden stop, and the engine was found
to be off the track, with its front
against the shed at distance of 10 or
- feet from the track which it had
left. The cars remained upon track.
An examination of the track showed
the marks of the locomotive wheels
upon the frog" in passing through
which they had been thrown from the
track. But there was no sign of any
obstruction, and there could be found
no defect in the wheels by which
the accident was caused. The spot
at which the locomotive was finally
stopped was about 40 feet from the
point at which it jumped the track. 1t
was turned toward the right had it
taken an opposite direction the results
might have been disastrous, for upon
TINT side was precipitate descent to-
ward the river. The trains following
this and those coming from Elizabeth
could not pass the spot for three hours
after the accident. Passengers we're
compelled to walk, and baggage was
transferred from one depot to the other.
After two hours delay those who were
detained were carried to their destina-
ton upon trains made up on either
side.

a5g4 One of the greatest humbugs of

Beg One of the greatest humbugs OF
the present year of grace is the popular
idea of seeking vigorous health at fash
ionable watering-places. Merchants
and manufactur r, neglect their bust
ness, physicians give their patients q
chance for fresh lease of life, and, in
some instances, clergymen abandon
the sick and dying to the care OF the
first Good Samaritan whose mission
causes him to pass that way,-whlle
they take an early train for some noted
resort of the virtuous and-vile. The
excitements insoparable from all great
gatherings are i'll adapted to refresh
mind or body. The fact is, the great
mass of pleasure-se ekers care less for
their health than for chance of indnl-
ging in exhilarating sports.
How greatly we are influenced by
our surroundings There is Mr.. Tur-
veydrop, for instance, whose admir-
bic department is the theme of elo-
quent remark No one but a shrewd
observer would suppose that this model
gentleman ever INDUCED in what is
facetiously called "a little harmless
dissipation. He would MS soon be
seen with stolen sheep on his Shout
der, rs to be caught in the act of enter
ing q lager-bier saloon. The writer
does not intend to sketch certain lido
syncrasies of Mr.. Turveydrop's
or he might draw a picture which
would call forth uproarious merriment
Suffice it to say, this dignified gentle
man finds it necessary to visit some
picturesque mountain spot, or health
giving spring, very often. In winter
he has business in Washington, Tren-
ton and other cities, where choice Ii
quors are freely circulated, and huge
elephants exhibited for the delectation
of men with plethoric pocket-books.
The number of respectable citizens who
have "business" on 4" the mountains, ,
OF at Long Branch, in summer, and al
Trenton in winter, is often commented
on in social circles. Many of these
travellers desire to be repnted very
shrewd. They fondly imagine that nc
whisper of their vagaries abroad viii
fall on ears of beloved ones Mt home
In this, however, they are often mis-
taken. So eager are some of them il
pursuit of novelty, they become reck
less. Scandal-mongers seize with avi
dity on absurd incidents and rapidly
magnify them into crimes. Affection
ate hearts have been lncerated in con
sequence of the thoughtlessness of those
of whom they had right to expec
better things when absent from thei
virtuous homes While it is cheerfnlly
admitted that multitudes lead righteou
and sober lives ut Fashions celebrated
resorts, it is undeniable that many ar,
there tempted from Virtues pleasan
