Church, because it has its bad men in il
A Methodist minister, by the name o
Hardie. was hung in New Jersey, few
years ago, for the murder of his wife, that
he might take another woman. Tt is I'M
fair to judge the church by fits free
lovers And yet, DR.. Hatfield seeks to
throw contempt on the woman suffrage
movement, because it may have some bad
persons connected with it.
The following extract from the last
Independent is pertinent to this point.
The editor is speaking of Mas Livermcres
reply to Rev. Dr. Lord, Of Montpelier,
Vermont, at the recent suffrage conven-
ton held there, after giving a quotation
from Mrs. LIS reply, the editor says:
Mrs Livermore might well have re-
minded DR.. Lord that his moral progeni-
tors, the Pharasees, from motives as hon.
orable as his own, and with excuses no
less plausible, sought to excite popular
odiun- against Christ, by charging him
with keeping low company She might
also have reminded him that the opponents
of womans rights do not all wear fine
raiment, or move in the best society: for,
While the cause hndS its supporters
among the intelligent, conscientious, phil
anthropic, and order-loving portion of
the community, there is not a grog
shop or other haunt oC low company in
all the land where its claims are not de-
rided, and where DR.. Lords opposition
would not win him applause. The rude
youngsters who disturbed the Montpelier
Convention no doubt chuckled at the
thought that the pastor of the Congrega-
tional church was on their
side, and that they were,
IN their aoay, working in the same
with him. Low company forsooth AS
if it were not notorious that 'lewd fellows
of the baser sort are everywhere in
sttnctively opposed to giving woman the
ballot, and ready, like Dr. Lord, to heap
odium on the advocates of the movA-
ment."

Alas for BuncOmbe /!
From the New York Evening Post.

From the New York Evening Post.
Senator Wilson's resolution in the SEN
ate, (which was unanimously adopted with
out debate, prohibiting the publication
in the Globe of speeches not actually de-
livered in Congress, will materially cur
tail the political reading of the Buncom-
beites. Never was a more absurd prac-
tice permitted to grow into a standing
abuse than in the case Of this printing in
the record of speeches as delivered, not a
word of which has been uttered on the
floor It's origin is not far to seek, in the
moral cowardice of members wearied of
the listless recitation of rubbish intended
for remote constituency.
AS DO body ever listened to it,members
were brought to think that publishing
the speeches in the Congressional Globe
without previous delivery amounted to
the same thing as letting the members re-
cite to passive and long suffering audi
ence, and then hand over their manu-
scripts to the reporters. But it did not
amount to the same thing. Buncombe
orators often made statements in their
unspoken harangues that would have met
with plump challenge on the floor of
the House in which these should have
been delivered We are told OF the
speech Of Mr.. Mungen, which was the
immediate cause of Senator Wilson's re-
solution, that it
"was so incident in its illusions and
charges so unparliamentay in its scope
and purpose, and SO Objectionable in its
words ond comparisons, that he would
not have been permitted, under the rules
of the House, to finish it had he attempt
ed it's delivery. The personal portions of
the speech were mainly directed to the
President, Secretary Fish and Senator
Sumner; and the most sordid and improp-
or motives were attributed to them with
reference to their course on the Cuban
question The attack on Mr. Sumner was
particularly indecent and unparliament-
ary"
Certainly it was high time that rene.
dy for this growing and monstrous evil
should be applied. Fhe country will save
a large sum annually III the expenses of
the public printing, and nothing can be
set forth as having been uttered in Con-
gress which was not SO uttered 1t is
hard on Mungens and on Buncombe

A HEROIC REsCUE.-The Boston Tray
eller tells the following story On last
Wednesday afternoon, as the Fort Warren
tug boat was making her regular outward
trip, having on board party of soldiers
returning to the fort, one of them, who was
slightly under the influence of liquor,
climbed up on the gunwale of the boat,
lost his balance and fell, stffking his head
against spike, which cut an ugly cash
over the left eye, rendering him inseDsi-
BILE. He sank almost immediately, coming
up again about ten yards from the boat,
and was sinking for the second time,when
Lieut. Zinski sprung over the side to save
him. without divesting himself of his over
coat. The lieutenant swan. towards the
drowning man and caught him, when both
sunk like SO much lead. The lieutenant
gained the surface again with his burden.
and was sinking for the second time,when
Michel Brown, a private, about % wears
of age, sprung to the rescue, thereby risk
ing third life. He came up behind
them, and by dint of hard showing and
swimming, succeeded in getting them
near enough to the boat to be pulled on
board, all three being insensible when
they gained the deck, where they were

To the Editor Kenosha TELEGR APH.
nrAp STD

DEAR SIR -
The following good one is told by the
unfortunate son of Erin himself, which /
think is too good to be lost:
His own words. When l came to
America landed in New York city and
went up to New Haven and there hired
out to man from Rhode Island who
happened to be member OF, the Legisla-
ture. He did not have time to initiate
me into the MYSTERIES of American far M
ing before he had to return to that body
My first duty after he had gene being to
get up the years fire wood he having
marked the trees he wished cut, and
taking the horses and sleigh I set out f or
the woods and CHOPPED until noon, then
loaded up and went to dinner. Having
hard time to get the logs on the sleigh
I set to work to devise some way to load
them easier. On my way home 1 hit up
on what I thought to be very nice plan !;
it was to drive the sleigh close to the
tree and fall the tree on the sleigh. So
after dinner set to work to try my plan
and chopping all round the trunk, as
greenhorn naturally will you know, the
tree finally began to crack and snap,
now thought I, I'll show these Yankees
how to load logs and away went the tree
smash accrost the sleigh; no bejaoers but
acrost the horses back: we'll was awful
scared and went to work Justify to free
the horse, but when got the great log
of him he was quite dead. Well what
to do, / did not know, SO l went off in
the woods and thought the matter over,
and came to the conclusion | had better
leave them digings but / had some keep
sakes at the house which l wished to
take with me, so waited till after dark
went to the house, secured my treasures
and went out to the wagon house and
set down on the sill tc think. While
there the hired girl came from milking
and asked her would she get me a
bowl of bread and milk and set it by the
hall door. She said she would. set
waiting some time, when I heard the hall
door open and shut, SO went to get my
bread and milk. Now they had a dog
which was all black except one side of
his head and that was white. and instead
of taking hold of my supper I got hold
of'the dogs head, the dog freezing fast to
my hand and biting it badly which
caused me to leave the house, grinding
my teeth with rage and pain, and vowing
to have the pleasure of smashing his
head. went back to the wagon house
and done up my hand as best could ,and
securing good cudgle went back to
the house and advancing cautiously to
where the dog lay and giving him a
tremendous blow, knocked my bowl of
bread and milk all to atoms.
Respectfully Yours,
