those who collect around their tables
and counters. The Sabbath is much
older institution than the Church.
It's necessity is recognized by all ma
tons, whatever may be their religious
opinions or beliefs. L is true differ
ent days are designated by different
naiioualities aud creeds. but one dag
IN Seren IS always set apart by civil
lied nations as a day Of rest, and rest
includes the idea If quiet and order.
Tn this country the first day Of the
week has been designated Is this day
Of rest. 1t is made SO, no doubt, be-
cause the first day seems to be more ac-
eepiab bic to a majority Of the people,
a large proportion of whom belong to
the various denominations Of the Chris
tian Church. We think, therefore,
that cur correspondent would have
been nearer right had he assumed as
the tide Of his communication, The
Law rs the Saloon-keepers." He
might. then, have proceeded with his
argument, and counselled the saloon
keepers to be careful and prudent In
their violations of the law, and urged
the friends of the law to exercise
charity and forbearance in its enforce
ment.
We affirm that no class in our midst,
whatever may be their calling, have a
right to pursue that calling to the
extent of interfering with the quiet
and order which are essential to make
Sunday the day Of rest designed by its
Great Author, and accepted as a
necessity by most people. The black
smith shops andboiI yards certainly
have no right to destroy the quiet Of
the day with the noise and din pecu-
liar TO them through the week, moi
have the saloon-keepers any right to
disturb their neighbors with the revel-
ings and boisterous demonstration Of
their customers. An outward obser-
vance Of the day is essential to the
quiet and peace ofthe community, and
we think a large majority of the
saloon keepers can not but see thai
such an observance is demanded by q
large majority Of the people If they
think different, they have only tC
make the simple issue Of the abroga
ton Of all Sunday laws, before oul
people, at any election, to convince
them Of their error.

ROBBED.
A Nashville Man Flee ced.


The ST. Louis Dispatch of the 18th con-
tains the following account of heavy pc
cuniary misfortune TO Mr.. Rogers, of this
city:
A young man named Rogers arrived,
the day before yesterday, in st. Joseph,
Mo-, having travelled thither from Nash
vile, Tenn. He came up from below on
the City of Cairo, and little before the
boat reached st. Louis, he retired 10 his
state-room to sleep. Before lying down
he took the precsulion TO place under his
head package of money which he carried.
The package contained fifteen hundred
dollars in notes.
When the boat touched the wharf il was
dark and the train or the North Missouri
road was waiting. Ia the hurry Of rush
ing from his state.room TO the train, which
was about to start, Mr.. Rogers unfortunately
run out without taking his money from
under the pillow.
lie jumped aboard the train, and never
thought of his money until the train had
gone some four or five miles. Stopping at
the frat station he started back immedi.
ately TO the boat. When he reached il he
made a thorough search, but the money
was gone and he has since been unable to
obtain any cleW TO it.
Mr.. Rogers was Oh his way TO Page,
lows, and upon arriving in st. Joe, related
his misfortunes to friend, and We find
mention in the St. Joseph Gazette, which
came among our exchanges this morning.
Mr.. Rogers intended purchasing land in
Iowa and settling there, and the 1900
which he had in the package contained the
chief part of his available means.

Circuit COurt.


Yesterday the argument in the case Of
the corporation of Nashville VS.. Terrass,
was concluded and taken under advisement
By the court. The questions involved are
Of great interest to the real property own
ers Of the city. The case arose out OF the
city law for compelling the owners of real
property to build sidewalks along the street
in front of their property,
The substance of the law is, that when
the proper city officers think sidewalk
needed, written notice is served on each Of
the owners Of the real property TO build
sidewalk on the street in front Of his
property; within twenty days after this
notice is served the property owners must
go TO the City Engineer and receive direc-
tions about how 10 build his sidewalk grades
curbing, etc, and if work is not commenc-
ed within the twenty days he is subject to
fine of So, and ten days after SIS more,
and then S. each day until he commences
work.
In the case before the court Mr.. Terrsss'
lot Is on Summer street south of Broad.
About ten years ago the city author
ties furnished Mr.. Terrass grades,
gave him directions and forced him
to build sidewalk. The city officers have
concluded to change the grade of this side
walk, and make it six or eight feet higher.
Notice was served on Mr.. Terrass but he
refused to make the walk, and was fined,
and this case is an action by the city 10 re-
cover the fine. All the questions are
raised in the case as to the right of the city
TO force the real property owners to build
sidewalks. Whether they can be COM
PEELED to bear all the tax and burthen Of
building walks for the public benefit, and
whether with every new set of city officials
or every within, they can be forced to change
the grade and build new sidewalks, oil
whether they are at the mercy of the city
officers. The case will probably be decided

TWICE MARRIED IN DAY.

A few days ago there was a gay and
festive wedding party at the house of Mr..
j., who lives in Indiana, near the line Of
Preble county, Ohio, indeed, the house
is in the HooSier State, while the garden
hich supplies its occupants with sass,
and the orchard from which they draw
their fruit and cider are in Ohio. The
occasion which We allude to was the
marriage of Miss Mary j. to a favorite
son Of old Preble, and as the event was
largely attended, and the preparations
for the entertainment Of the gay and fes>
tive throng were so ample and admirable,
nothing was wanting to render it one OF
the most splendid and satisfactory ever
witnessed in all that country. The ceres
mOny concluded, congratulations offered,
and the banquet ended, the young
people who contribute to make such oc>
casions immensely lively, were in the
midst Of their mirthful demonstrations,
when the minister who had tied
the silken knot, bethought him of the
statutes touching marriages, and he con-
cluded that the license which was pro-
cured in Ohio, wasn't, after ali, authority
for marrying a couple in Indiana; and he
created sensation by communicating his
doubts to the young people, who were
indulgiDg in dream that they were Gins
dissoInbly united" and astounded the
party of young folks, who were making
merry over the event. A council was
held, and it was at length decided that,
to make a sure thing, and leave no room
for unpleasant doubts the party would
repair to the orchard, which was known
to be in the State of Ohio, and the mar
rage ceremony should be repeated.
This stratgetic movement was execut~
ted on once and in good order, and the
nervous bride and groom, standing there
in "the beautiful snow" in that fruitful
orchard, fanked on all sides by crowd
of shiVering witnesses, were again pro-
nounced husband and wife: That mar
iage ought to be divorce~proof-Dayton

GENTLEMEN: Dr. LIGHTHILL expects to
visit your city soon, and for the benefit OF
the suffering wish to say, through you,
to your very extensive acquaintance in
this and other Southern States that DR..
Lighthill can do all for the suffering that
can be afforded bv skill. science and a
comprehensive experience.
Indeed, DIR. iIghthill performs some
almost miraculous cures. One case for in
stance. Iplsced under his treatment, over
two years since, my niece, Miss Eliza
Mitchum, of McLemoresville, Tenn. She
had been suffering from q child with q
rising in the head, which had for years
emitted through the ear very ugly and
offensive corruption. Her case had been
treated by the best physicians CT the coun-
try and had baffled the skill o all. DR..
Lighthill kept her under bis immediate
charge for ten days and then sent her home
with remedies. She used the remedies as
directed and in three months was entirely
we'll and still continues in excellent health
1t may be proper to state that when Miss
Mitchum went under DR.. Lighthill's treat
ment she was unable to walk and, as her
friends thought, was rapidly approaching
death.
If you have any friends among your ex-
tensive acquaintance suffering with any
chronic disease you may safely recommend
them to DIR. Lighthill.
Yours, very respectfully,
