THE MORALITY OF CARDS. of
the religious journals have been indu]p.
ing in arguments relative to gambling.
In which ideas no less novel than strik.
ing have soen the light. "Can God be
gloritied, asks the Christian. E:ram,iner,
OF Rlchmond, Virginia, .'or Christ
honored and his cause advanced, by
such abominnble games as smut, euohre,
seven'up and Old-maid, tho very names
Of which female 'modesty should blush
to pronounoe?" Rev. George Harding,
editor, OF the Indianapolis Journal, re-
plies: 1--WE presume not. However,
there are many worse things that Christ
!ans may do than play cards. Seven-up
IS scientific game, useful as discipline
OF the mind. Whist incuIcates the
virtue OF silence. Euchre teaches prin-
clples which may be practically adapted
TO everyday life; for instance, the folly
OF attempting to go it alone on weak
hand. This. we presume, settles the
question forevermore, and we are
curious to learn how Mr.. Tremaine feels
now. In defending Stokes the other
day. he said he loathed a gambler moro
than he loathcd any human being, and
that suoh man would steal the coins
from his dead parents eyes to crafty
his wretched passion. He had no thought
then OF the soothing influences that
aeyen-up exercises over the mind. He
had not learned the virtues of old maid,
or the bliss of coppering the ace. His
client could not have been deyotee to
euchre, or he would never have gone it
alone on weak hand. The Christian
Ernm'ner has very weak case. It's
questions remind us of sermon deliver
Ell against baseball. wherein the
preacher asked: "Why play this game?
Would dying sinner play baseball on
his death bed7 Then avoid this snare
Of Satan, my hearers"

A case of self-immolation by Hindoo
widow has occurred in Brighton, Eng
land. The woman was the widow of one
Moses Spinemann, n rich merchant. who
married her in Malabar, of which coun-
try she was native. During her resi-
dence in England, she always retained
her own religion and customs, and caused
to be constructed on her husbands estate
in the country Hindoo temple, into
which she went every day to offer up her
devotions according to the rules OF her
own faith. When Spinemann died re-
Gently, she conducted herself in the
most frantic manner, tearing her hair
and dis6guring her beautiful features
with her nails. Her remains, consumed
by fire, were subsequently discovered by
the servants in the temple which she had
built. and their condition clearly re-
vealed the fact that, in accordance with
the old Hindoo superstition in such mat
ters, she had burnt herself alive. A
similar case occurred few months ago
in Naples. where woman, widow of a
Hindoo grandee who had died in that
city, inundated herself upon funeral
pyre.

JUDGE MAOKEY SPEEOH.-In our no.
tlce OF Judge Mackey's speech, contained
IN tuesdays issue, we neglected to state
that the speaker ayowed himself openly
and unqualifedly Republican, in vio-
lat!on of his youthful teachings, and in
violation of the traditions OF the State.
HIS convictions were formed at the sacri-
ice OF lifelong associations and friend
ships, and he proposed to stand BY them
Through thick and thin" In his OPT
mon. reform could only come thro Ugh
the Republican party, and must be
worked within its ranks. Originating
from any other source, it would fall
Wholly short Of its aim. Judge M then
proceeded to expose several enterprises
that have been the means of swindling
the State out of many millions of dol
lars. Since the 9th of July, 1868, the
cost OF the public printing of the State
mas aggregated 1885, ZOO per annum.
while IN New York State it has amounted
to only $4,000 per annum. notwith-
standing the fact that the population of
New York is nearly five times greater
ttnu that Of this State. This exhibit
shows that the public printing in South
C"rolina costs more than that of New
York by Sis. 900, despite the disparity
In size Of population. TIE Legislative
printing was done by company COM
posed Of certain members and officers.
The Clerk of the Senate was President,
and the Clerk of the House q member.
Ihlrteen Senators are known to have be-
ionged to it, one of whom was a Demo.
crat. d. T. Corbin WAS q member of
the company, and acted as it's attorney,
receiving as salary 80. 900. He is now
crying out for reform. In the passage
OF the phosphate bill. in 1869, $50, 600
was used to bribe the Legislature to vote
for it. This measure has only benefited
the State S19. 900, whereas it ought to
have brought into tho Treasury at least
$500, 600. II the remedy, remarked
Judge NJ, is not applied to correct these
abuses. by Republican voters themselves,
then Gen. Grant will certainly recon-
mend to Congress to remand the State
to territorial condition, under a provi-
sional government. If Republicans can't
correct the abuses committed by the bad
members of their party, let the State be
surrendered bnck to the cure of the Gen
eral Government.
One point of Judge NJ q speech we
desire to call special attention to is this,
that the State Government is responsible
for every red shroud in which sleeps
Is. K. victim, and for the sufferings and
misery of every South Carolinian who
languishes behind the bars of Albany
Penitentiary. Upon this statement, we
forbear comment.-FdirJfeld Ne,os.

not something suggestive beyond the
mere notion of political dodge in all
this? Is it not. indeed, q type of that
true reunion. where old errors and trou-
bles. even those CHASTITY ones that led to
civil war, may be reviewed in a friendly
manner. with concession and pardon on
both sides, ready to smooth over all re.
curing anger? The political millennium
is coming.

OFFICIAL MURDERS IN ARKANsAs-THE
PEACE WHICH GRANT OFFERS. s.-A Little
Rock (Arkansas) despatch. under date
OF the 18th. states that at Clayton po-
litical meeting, held in Pope County,
July 5, Deputy Sheriff Williams report
ed that he had been shot at but not hurt
Sheriff Dodson, with crowd of twenty
eight men, accordingly arrested Tucker,
Hale and son, and West, four prominent
citizens. whom Williams suspected. The
crowd started to take these men to Perry
County, and under pretenee of an at
tempted rescue, they killed three of the
prisoners. The people in the County
believe the affair was intended as a pre-
text for proclaiming martial law, and to
intimidate the anti-Grant men. Pope
County has been peaccable for years,
although the officials are mostly Clayton
appointees. No civil process was issued
in the case.

to mourn his untimely end. 1t is but our cad
privilege to bow In humble submission to the
decree OF our Divine Master, graciously trust
ing that he has been transferred to the realms
Of the glorious heavens beyond the sky. It
is, therefore, but iuat and meet that we, his
