Always Thought So

The world is full of people who are
perpetually snatching at occasions for infor-
ming the one with whom they last talk that
they. :. always thought So No Sabbath
school superintendent can become a bank
delaulter no clergyman turn out to be a
reprobate of unmentionable crimes; no
public officer proved to have accepted
bribes, without the chattering of swarm
of gossips who swear that they suspected
the thing from the first. No enormity
surprises them; for their malignant om-
nisclence protects them against surprise.
The intuitions Of the scande!-monger are a
wonderful intellectual! phenomenon. He
is sort of malignant moral surgeon, who,
Indifferent to the agony he causes probes
the wound in order to extract the bullet
NOT of truth, bat of Misrepresentation.
1t is verbally striking man when he Is
down. and helping to kick him to death with
scandc's lamest spiders.
No doubt it is rare gift to know, by
intuition. that certain man is william,
yet utter no word against him until he is
proved to be SO. The gift is so rare that
we would not like to run the risk of being
unjust to humanity by calculating the
seldoinness with which it is vouchsafed
Rouchefoucald's celebrated maxim might
with Justice be so modified as to read, ''in
the suddenly discovered crimes of men of
hitherto spotless reputation, there is some
thing which is not unpleasant to us" 1t
is actually SO. The majority of us do not
lose our appetites because Bacon accepts
bribe and Marlborough does not refuse
one. Perhaps we take secret satisfaction
in feeling that the crimes or the vices to
which we have often felt vehemently i'm
PEELED have actually been committed by a
man whom. in spite of them we cannot
help confessing in our secret hearts to be
our moral and intellectual superior. We
feel elated that our weakness should have
been not only shared, but even yielded TO-,
by character nobler than our own.

TATTLEKS.

For the Herald and Tribune.
If there be an individual on earth who
is lost to every human virtue. every act of
humanity and decency. most assuredly
the tattler or the slanderer is the one.
They will persue every scheme that dwells
in their foul and polluted brest, to des-
troy the reputation and character of their
fellow beings. When this has been once
injured by the malicious tongue of SANDER
it requires a considerable effort on the
part of the traduced to restore it to its
primitive purity. The man or woman
who is guilty of this, would crawl surrep-
titiously under the darkness of night, to
your. beG-chamber, and plunge the muir
dering steel to the fountain of your exis-
tence, and pour forth your life's blood. to
satisfy his or her nellish passion. How
many fond and loving hearts once tinged
; with the prismatic hues of hopes, have
been made to bleed by the rude jourings

their power they would rob the eternal
God of his power and usurp His throne.
There black and nauceous pills of malici-
Gus SANDER are sugar-coated with smiles
and honeyed words of friendship
They breathe an impure spirit and
clothe vice in all the attractions magma
bic. They rob virtue of all its redeeming
traits, and shroud it in a garb of mean
ness; they would belong to the higher cir
cles of society, but generally speaking this
is not the case. nor are they always the of
spring of the highest order of genius, but
the froth and scum that floats upon the
surface of the stream, their lightness re-
fusing deeper element. They are the
food and sport of the minnow tribe, which
cluster around in frantic circles, their origin
forbiding nobler sustenance. But the
true and noble character cannot be crushed
and mingled by their forked tongue. 1t
is destined to live and flourish long after
they have passed from the memory of man.
True they cripple and stain it for while,
but. it will bud and bloom afresh.

The Legal Tender Dccisien.

The Supreme Court of the United States
on Monday met in council and decided by
five to four, that the legal-tender act did
apply to contracts made before the war;
as well as to those made during tie war,
and that it was constitutional, thus revers-
ing the decision of the last term of the
court that the law did not apply to con-
tracts made before its passage. justices
Miller, SwayDe, Davis. Strong and Brad
lev voted to sustain the constitutionality
of the act, and Chief Justice Chase and
Justices Nelson, Clifford and Field voted
in the negative. The full opinion of the
court will not be written out before the
October term, but the fact Of the decision
will be announced when the court reas-
sembles. 4.

A ku kiux Excursion in Ken
tucky.

The Ku Klux of Wolfe county, after a
retirement of several weeks. mustered in
force on Saturday night and went brayely
out on whipping excursion. They vls'-
ted a number Of families, and before NOR
ming the cowardly hounds bad stripped and
whipped eleven white persons, six ofwhoin
were women. They also stole from,
stable in Campton the horse Of James j.
Conway, the special bailiff Of General
Murray, and rode him all night, Generous
ly returned him with note attached to
his name, informing Mr.. Conway that the
Klan had taken his case under considera-
ton, and voted on the disposition they
should make Of him. The resolution to
hang him was lost by ono paltry vote,
hence the Klan felt obliged to inform the
bailiff that unless he quit mis- id radi-
cal business they would hang him soon,
any way" Possible some member OF the
Legislature has been added to the ranks OF
these calico-gowned heroes. and thus stim-
ulateG them to their noble efforts in whip
pibg white men and women. 1t would
be differeult to enumerate the number ct
lashes these cowardly scoundrels are enti-
tied to if they should be caught aud SEN
fenced te this popular mode Of correction.

Tniuriosls Drugs.

A well informed physician at Louisville
states that among ladies the use of NOR
phine, opium and chloroform is becoming
alarmingly frequent. The opiate may be,
in the first instance, used to alleviate pain ;
but taking it becomes habit, and is re-
storted to whenever there is mental de-
preston, as there will certainly be when
the drug is rot taken at the usual time.
This doctor states that thousands of ladies
keep one or other of these drugs constantly
on hand and use them daily. Overdoses
of morphine cause many deaths. and the
constant use of any article that deadens
nervous sensibility is certainly productive
of serious nervous derangements-

Newspaper Exchange.

The New York Tribune records tho
following:
A newspaper comes to the Tribune from

alternative is fearful, but as of two evils,

" little story" is app, opriate here. Some
years ago, young man Of culture aud

startled at first, the young man faced about.
