Cornelius Edwards, stabbed
last week at Port Bolivar by
Aquilla King, is dead. Here is
another useful citizen prematurely
sent into eternity, the victim of
unbridled passion and of the de-
mon rhisky! Far be it from us
to attempt to prejudice popular
sentiment or to fOrestall judicial
Investigation in this or any other
case. We want Kingand all other
men who are so unfortunate as to
slay a fellow-beihg to have an i'm
partial hearing before the properly
appointed tribunal. But we de
nounce that morbid tendency
amounting almost to a disease,
which prompts men to shed blood
upon trivial provocation at all
fMore to be deprecated is the in
temperate indulgence in liquor
which is in a majority of cases the
fore-runner ofcrime. King, sober
would probably to-day be the
possessor of that good conscience
and peace which innocence and
honest industry commands. King
drunk, is refugee from justice
whether there is anything extenu
ating in his favor or not; and his
victim, where is he? Cut down
in the flower of youth he sleeps

Leading New York Editors.

&AOS~0A44e5 &OW = "a - A~~S -
The New York Star describes
some of the leading newspaper
men of that city. ''NIr. Bennett, |
of the Herald" it says, "always
rises when talking, and rarely
talks loud. He never cared for
social pleasures, and INDUCES fire.
quently in Scotch profanity. Mr..
Greeley, Of the Tribune, is vain to
q degree; he dresses in cleanly
garments, but arranges them with
scrupulous regard to notoriety; he
is fond of attention, and has had
an Office fitted up in front of his
building, where, with curtains
drawn up, he has gas turned full
on, so that he may be seen-in
thought by all who pass; he af-
fects a squeak, and swears terribly.
Mr.. Dana, of the Sun, INDUCES in
velocipedes, military cloaks, and
skull cap; he has weak eyes, and
sitting back in his chair, has
proofs read to him, while he chews
the pleasant cud of fancy. Mr..
Marble, of the World, affects reti-
cence-when folks praise him for
one of Hurlburt's articles, he
smiles and makes them believe it
is his; he didn't like the name of
Moses, SO he dropped it; he didn't
like the sound of Malone, so he
dropped that; he does not swear,
but whether he keeps the other
commandments in that vicicity
deponent saith not. John Swim,
ton rolls his eyes and rumples his
hair, unbuttohs his suspenders,
and covers the walls of his room
with wood cuts-besides he wears
a linen coat covered with ink, and
chewS the ends of long mines. Mr..
; Shepherd, of the Times, is exces-
sively neat in all ways; he wants
his paper just so; he holds his
head forward, and sits on the ex
IRENE edge of his chair when he
writes. Mr.. Jennings, of the
Times, writes on small sheets OF
, paper in copperplate photography
is very fond of raw oysters, and
! adores pale ale. Mr.. Reid, of the
! Tribune, sits in his shirt sleeves
= Chats queer, but he does wears
velvet ''vests," and has GOLD
, chain some ten feet long, which
he winds about his neck; he affects
this dilettante business indicative
Of his gentle nature; he likes every
body, and wouldn't be ill-natureC
for a dollar-we should hate tt
tempt him with more. Oakey
Hall is the best dressed editor il
: the city; he has suit of clothes
for every festival day, and appear
1 in green whenever he receives ;
e Celtic procession, he dictates to
+ stenographer, and doesn't care {
g ha'pence for all the libels in tn
;, land"

The Business Mans Discipline

gives his character pretty hard
trial. Not only does it exercise
his sagacity and prudence, but it
puts his integrity to the severest
test. He is surrounded by the
selfshness of trade; he sees men
profit By cunning and fraud, and
he is tempted to try his skill in
artifee and deception. Every
day his honesty is tried in some
way. He is thrown back upon
his inward principle, and if his
heart is hollow and deceitful he
will be sure to show it. And that
man has reason to thank God who
has gone through a long course of
business, through times of wild
speculation and general bankrupt
cy and goes down to the grave
with the never shaken conscious
ness of beng an honest man. He
who can see others making money
by false representations, and never
stoOp to these tricks of trade, is
fitting his own pure mind for a
world that is more worthy of him.
And vet a man cannot wholly
escape the temptations. To do
that, ne must needs go out, Of the
world, or retire into solitude. He
might, indeed, avoid all danger
by shutting himself within the
walls of a convent. 1t is not,
however, the will of God that we
should retire apart to keep from
contamination, but maintain our
integrity amid strong inducements
to evil. Not in deserts, but in
cities; not in the hermit's cell. but
among men, sharing the common
lot, meeting the temptation as il
comes, are we to form our charac
tiers for eternity. Men ought tC
rejoice in arigid discipline. When
ever assailed by temptation, al
opportunity is given to conquer
themselves, and so to become
nobler beings.
The most heroic virtues of the
human character are brought out
in the struggle with Unborn sci
fishness, and with the cowardly
examples of the world. Men o
bravehearts ought to welcome tht
conflicts and buffetings of life
Every victory they gain will MAKE
them stronger, as the tempest
which rocks and tears the noun
tain oak, causes it to strike it
roots down deeper in the earth
and to lift higher it's majestic arm
toward heaven.- Educational Ga
