HUMAN misunderstanding of

two, as it may happen, very closest rela-

most Of lis have no idea how little our
friends think of us. With all our talk
about human loneliness, we are lonelier
than we imagine. This strange, brutal
element of selfishness, how imperviOus
it is; how often, in the best and tender
est of us, it drives out thought or care
for others. AS you joined in the hymn
at the morning service yesterday, you
were touched by a certain plaintiveness
in your W tenor; you thought your
friend, whose thumb nestled against
yours on the open hymn-boOk, also no.

ease, there is alsO-dim and unacknOWl-
edged and impotent it may be-some-
thing Of the impatience and pitilessness
that causes certain wild beasts to fall
upon and rend their sick and crippled.
Our friend is well and pr0sperOus-we
shudder at the fancy of our great trouble
falling upon him it comes, and, though
our hearts go out in loving h%elpfulness,
there is just a little cloud over that
sympathy-partly due to CHASING him
with others in like manner afflicted. The
individual hardship seem to be o tpife

The freaks of lightning grow more
and more remarkable every year. In
Alabama it struck and killed Il lady,
leaving uninjured a child in her arms.
In the same State, two buzzards, high up
in the air, were struck, and their flight
peremptorily arrested. But the great
est aehieYementin thisline, yetTep0rted,
occurred in Tennessee, where man was
struck b. lightning, and driven into the
ground up to his neck, without being
materially injured. Perhaps the electric
fluid will open an air line to China yet
in this way.

The EASE OF DEATH.-As a man, so
far as he may see with his present light,
can die but once, there is nothing he
is so likely to be little acquainted with
as2 death. He usually shuns what he
has always been taught to believe the
greatest of evils, and avoids the visions
OF the monster, even when it knocks at
his friend or neighbours door, The
great majority of men i'll these piping
times of peace seldom see death until
it has gone, except when it to
them; and then they scarcely recognize it,
so different is the original from the hid
eOus caricature. Thus death has been
for ages, contrary to science and ex-
perience, depicted in it's PHYSICAL rela-
tiOns as a pang and an agony, and NOR
bid rhetOricians haveatortured adiectives
to portray its intOlerable pain. The
" last struggle" is a favOrite phrase to
express the. final dissolution, when, in
fact, with the coming of death all strug-
gle ceases. AS We are unconscious OF
the exact time of falling asleep, so We
are all also unconscious of the moment
Of dying: Outward signs that are un-
mlstakable and accurate diagnoses tell
us this; but still the average mind holds
to tradition, and believes most implicitly

associated with the pain of death, that
to hasten it by violence was long re-
garded as an act of humanity. In the
Old World it was the custom for gene
rations to jerk the pillow from under
the head of the dying, to preserve them
from what was thought to be the an
| guish of the last moment. They who
have witnessed the approach of death
are aware from infallible symptoms
that insensibility precedes death, and
that cessation from pain in cases OF

Mr.. FROUDE'S LECTURES.-The four
lectures delivered by Mr.. FrOude have
produced the most intense indignation
among Il Irish and Catholic citizens.
The eminent eulOgist of Henry VIII
speaks to audiences which show by fire.
Quent applause that they enterfully into
his hostility to the Irish race and the
Catholic Church, and endorse his most
unjust and unfair charges against the
Irish people. 1t is but rarely that an
American is found who is familiar with
the history Of English rule in Ireland,
consequently the Misrepresentation and
peryersiOns of fact which occur so fire
quently in Mr.. FrOude's lectures are not
easily detected by his hearers. But any
person who is familiar with that history
cannot read or hear the lectures without
~perceiying immunerable mis-statements
which, as they cannot be ascribed to ig-
nOrance, must be attributed to an in
grained prejudice against the Irish peO-
pie. Mr.. FrOude told us very o % after
his arrival that he came here to enlist
American opinion on the side of Eng
plish this object. But his mission is al
is SO plain that several Of IL daily and
weekly papers have arraigned him fol
it, and plainly intimated that, if may
use Il ~vulgarism, he is barking up the
wrong tree" Father Burke, the elo-
Quent Dominican monk, has determined
to reply to FrOude and expose his mis-
representations, but | suppose that not
one in twenty Of those who have heard
the historian will listen to the otherside
of the argument. They don't want to
hear ANYTHING that would clash with
their well-belOved prejudices.

IHE ELECTToN.-Ihe election &Ast
Monday, here and at the other pding
places throughout the parish, passA off
peaceably and quietly, asfar as We have
been able to learn. There were i fights
ON that day, no blood vas spnsd, and
We neither saw nor heardo any one be-
ing drunk. Some attribute these things
to our State election law, fewhich (the
law they have blamed anlaAbused Gov.
Warmoth so much. w think they
should also be attribut5to the disor-
ganized condition of fties here, and
the fact that white ca Gdates, of all po-
litical shades, were flirting themselves
to get the colored ~ for local offices.
1t may seem parad fcal, butitis never
theless true, w~eEh&eve, that a part Of
the colored ele9f of the Republican
party here, VIII Tai1Fas in an organized
state, nominate tqf adopted some of the
regular Demoe tic nominees and voted
for them on the same ticket with straight
out Radical candidates.
The vote, except Presidential and
Congressional candidates, has been, at
the time of going to press, only partially
counted. The counting will scarcely be
finished before sometime next week.
PASTED SLIPs.-A few days before the
election there appeared here cards, on
one side of which was a piece of paper
with the name "Jas. 3. Price" printed
OH it in about twenty places, and the
paper cut into narrow slips with one
name on each slip, the margin of the
paper pasted to the card. The slips had
mucillage on them, SO that they could
be easily and quickly torn off andpasted
over Gantt's or Darralls name on Il
ticket. On the reverse side of the card
was the following:
FRANKLIN, La, October 26, 1872.
SIR:-Enclosed please find names to
be used in behalf of the party named, in
the approaching election.
We consider Col, Prices chances in
the coming contest as extremely fiatter-
ing, but desire to obtain a SUeeping ma
j0Tity for him, and, to secure which, shall
rely upOny your efficient aid a"ndlnhuenCe.
IF every friend will secure one cOlored
vote, Col. Prices majority will be hous-
dndS.
Very truly, yours,
A. E. DAVIS.
P. S.-Such names enclosed as you
may not need, please hand to some good
working friend of Col. Price. D.
Now the New Orleans Times of last
Monday morning, in an article addressed
to voters, says:
Erasures of names should be carefully
made with ink, for the FASTING of slips
is forbidden by the law, which requires
tho ballot to consist of II piece or slip
of paper:
Attention to these cautions will be
productive of much benefit to the Con-
servatives, and will save many ballots
from being rejected.
According to this, if the business of
"pasting Slips has been carried on in
this and other parishes, as these cards
indicate, there may be some changes
made in the election returns. Other
parties may also have been engaged in
tho sauna 1nc1oncs
