These letters are not written with
any idea of impressing your readers

imparting information concerning a

which there is very little accurately
known to the general public. They
may be of interest to many and OF
value to some, and I intend to con-
tinue them while we are in mail COM

something to say of Texas.

MIR. GreeIey's Faith I'm Richard.
Enm


Pending the Mcfarland trial Mr..
Horace Greeley published a card, in
which he said: Ny interest in this
case centers not in the living, but the
dead. Albert D. Richardson was my
friend. I have travelled with him
when we were almost alone upon
the vast solitude of the plains, and
knew him as brave, generous and no
BILE. I never heard any one breathe a
whisper. to his discredit until this
trouble arose. That he could be gull
ty of seducing a wife from her hus-
band, is contrary to all L ever knew or
believed of him. That he could de-
liberateIy resolve TO install a woman
known to him to be lewd and want
on, as the mother of his children, is
to me utterly incredible. I am sure
that the truth which underlies this
tragedy has not yet been told ; at all
events, is not generally understood.
"Richardson is dead ; he cannot
speak for himself; his memory must
be vindicated by the efforts Of his sur
viving friends or not at all, and those
efforts must be put forth under great
disadvantages. The other story has
possession of the public ear; powerful
influence and interests are enlisted in its
support. Every scoundreI who looks
upon woman merely as an instrument
of his lust, and never aided one in dis
tress except with intent to make her
his prey, rushes instinctively to the
conclusion that Richardson was a Sc
ducer. He wants no evidence of this
but such as he finds in his own breast,
and every one accustomed to look on
wife merely as a species of property
whereof the title cannot be alienated
by abuse any more than if she were q
horse or a dog, naturally incIines to
the same verdict"

Fenr nrGnd.

"Would that I had always feared
God as 1 fear Him nowr' Such was
one Of the cries heard amid the groans
and the prayers that went up from be-
meath the ruins Of the Richmond Court
House. But it was a vain prayer ;
God Himself could not answer it; the
past could not be changed. The man
had not feared God. BE had disrp-
garded His authority. He had trans
pied on His laws. He had made light
or His Gospel He had lived in sin as
If there were no God and no Savior.
No act now, Divine or human, can
undo all this. The past, even if re-
pented Of and forgiven, must remain
a bitter past, in spite of the bittere5t
laments Of the present. AIasI the sad
dest thing among those ruins was, not
the crushed bodies, but the cry that
showed a crushed soul. How -sOOth-
ing the contrast of that other voice
beside the first, 80 grave, where is
thy victory? o death, where is thy
sliDg?"

An Appeal.

The citizens of Richmond, Virginia,
recently visited with dire calamity
in the falling of the State Capitol
building, have sent throughout the
country circulars appealing to the be-
nevolent and generous for aid. The
appeal states that $50 persons were
sufferers in the calamity, 65 Of whom
are dead. That many families are de-
pendent for support upon those who
are dead or wounded, and are now suf-
fering for the necessities of life. The
circular authorizes postmasters TO re-
.ceive contributions and forward them
with the names of contributors to Miss
E. L. Van Lew, Postmistress, Rich
mond, Va, President of the Relief AS
sociation. The benevolent who are
able to give should heed the call.

RELIGION.

Religion was never designed 10 be-
put on stills; and one half of its power
is lost in affectations of sOlemnity,
which are Unnatural, and therefore un-
gracious. The teachings and example
Of Christ are not earnal, and yet they
are thoroughly human. He was UeyY
man. All that is grand and God-like
in character rays through his example,
for he was also tery God. All His life
is as far from affectation as unsuIlied
simplicity can be. The perfection of
gOdly sincerity was His. Those miLT
listers of Christ are most successful who
have learned to love and initiate the
sweet charity that was always intent
on doing good to the souls and bodies
Of poor sufferers, seeking no honor
from men, but rendering its kind Of
fees, all for love, and nothing for re-
ward.

Scarcity Of Money,

The scarcity Of money is the burden
of nearly every conversation you hear
on the street. Those who have money
hold on to it under the impression
that times are going to be tighter.
Under the present circumstances the
best way to get along and make bust
ness better, is to keep the money in
circulation. Let every man who has
a dollar keep it moving and it will
eventually come back to him. Money
is of no account whatever unless it is
kept in use. Hoarded up it is a curse,
kept in circulation it is a blessing.
Let every man pay his debts as fast
as he can, and money will be plentier.

every part. The proceedings were open

Moderator of last New School Assembly.
About five hundred delegates were pres

interest, commanding the rapt attention
of delegates and auditors. Rev. DR.. J. T.

Reaping the yVhirIwind.

The following is from the Hartford
Journal and Visitor:
/ The richest man in our town set up
one of his sODs in the liquor business.
A temperance neighbor protested earn
estly against it. The rich father said,
"Why, he can make a thousand dol-
lars a year." "NO matter" said the
temperance neighbOr; sit may be the
ruin Of him" In ten years the wife
Of that rumsellinR son died a drunkard; :;
leaving two mOtherless children. The
rumseller forged his fathers name, and
at length involved his father so much
that the old man failed; losing The
earnings Of his life. The rumseIling
son died a drunkard, and his poor
brother, too, died a sOt, and the poor
old father, who was one Of the mod
crate drinkers, drinking enough to
plant the seed of ruin in his family

& Woe to him that putteth the bottle
to his neighbours lips.
