The Way of the Transgressor,

The investigation of the circumstances at
tending the murder of Charles Goodrich in
Brooklyn affords grounds for very serious re-
lection. Here was man well advanced in
life, wealthy, of good business character and
ostensibly of good social standing, to all out
ward seeming a pattern of proprety, CAL
rylng his punetilious correctness of demeanor
to an extent which might fairly be character
lied as prigsish, who at the same time was
living secondary life of Numerically OPP
poslte nature, consorting with hariots' Keep
ang several mistresses, making assiSn'l'ion'
through Herald "Personals" and spenaihs @
large proportion of his nightsin wild deoaocH-
erles.
Passing by all considerations OF lle hypoc-
risy, the faithlessness, the violation oil the
laws of God and man displayed in such life,
we are led to consider, in looking at the pict-
urc. the personal unhappiness and mental
suffering of the man who attempts to live
snch a dual life. He associates himself with
people who have put aside all notions of vir-
tue, honor and honesty and who, in commit
ting themselves absolutely to a life of sin,
have the advantage in every way of him who
would maintain status among respectable
people while committing himself to vicious
courses in a soft of amateur way. His
knowledge of their character must give him a
constant sense of insecurity. He knows they
are capable of resort to any means of retain
ing him among them al extorting money
from him. 1t is an unequal association in
which he has much to lose-they nothing His
mind must be filed constantly with feverish
schemes to avoid detection and apprehensions
of dangers from all directions. Like an actor
business routine a part of the Ntime and
plunges for the rest of it into wild drama of
fierce passions and intricate plots.
All these points clearly appear in the his
tory of Goodrich's career and fate. There
was perpetually- hanging over him the fear
ofexposure and when he plunged into such
reckless companionship, he set his character
and even, as the result shows, his life at the
disposal of the wnim of harlot or the jieal-
Gus passion of a rival. He shut the door of
the world of law an | order behind him and
went, as it were, into another region beyond
the protection, as well as beyond the surveil-
lance of society. He succeeded in hiding
himself so well that he was killed and his
murderers escaped, before the city, whose
life and activity flowed within fe " feet of
his corpse, knew that crime had been COM
mitted.
1t is plain that in our time life of secret
sin is beset with danger. Companions who
have set one class of laws at defiance can
hardly be relied upon to obey the other; end
the same concealment which screened the
victims vices, hides his vicious associates
crime against him.

INDEPENDENT journalism has come gener-
ally to mean the independence of certain BIT
terly personal papers to publish ISLANDERS upon
prominent individuals whom they do not like,
and, assuming that the SANDER is true, make
the victim the theme for moral sermon.
In this way the Cincinnati Commercial re-
Gently published a long article purporting to
be an inside history of the Credit Moblier af-
fair, in which damaging insinuations were
made against Speaker Blaine. The other in
dependent journals copied it and in the CT.
cathedrd manner which has become SO lud-
crous in them called upon Mr.. Blaine to
stand forth and confess his hidden iniquities.
The version Of the Springfield Republican,
which assumes the whole to be true, and init
mates that that gentleman is a scoundrel who
luckily escaped detection, is copied by the
Maine Standard Of this week and may prob.
ably be found in the Anson ADVOCATE of next
week and qdite possibly in the Lewiston Ga.
zette which comes to us Saturday. 1t now,
however, turns out that the Cincinnati Com
mercial was imposed upon and is obliged to
confess that such is the case and rhat the in
situations and charges made by it against
Mr.. Blaine are untrue and without shadow
offoundation. Mr.. Murat Halstcad could as
well have ascertained that the charges were
groundless before publishing them as after,
had he cared to do so but such conserva-
tive course would not be an evidence of mod
ern independence in journalism. 1t is very
probable that the Springfield Republican will
make correction; but as for the Democratic
papers in Maine that usually publish such az
ticles with the statement that they are COP.
led from staulch Republican papers-they
will never refute them. On the other hand
they will periodically republish them as new.

At This Very Hour

thousands are suffering fever and ague, or anguis-
ing in that condition OF debility which the variable
weather OF the season is apt to produce especially if
the nervous system be particularly sensitive and the
physique delicate rather than robust. All these suf-
ferers, however much they may deserve sympathy,
are nevertheless the victims of their own want of
forecast. A course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
commenced month ago, would have exempted
them from their present troubles. Having neglected
prevention, let them at once adopt the means Of
aad Alternative twice or thrice day. for week two

biliousness nervous weakness and perseverance,

Cbar.e s Against a Clergyman.

Some weeks since q rumor became current,
seriously affecting the character of Rev. A. Fl.
Witbam the Methodist clergyman in charge of
the Denmark crcnit, duplicating him with i'm
proper conduct with some of his female ac
quaintances The Methodist church, always
jealous of its reputation. took the matter in
hand, and Rev. Mr.. Sanderson, presiding elder,
had a council convened in Fryeburg, Thursday,
| to consider the grave charges. Rev. Israel Luce
was president Of the council, and f. NJ. Nichols
of Conway, was chosen secretary. The case
was referred to Revs. B. w. Eastman, A. Cook,
and o. S. Sinclair. The woman, who lives in
Chatham, n. H., stated before the committee
that the conduct of Mr.. Whitman toward her.
though not criminal, was highly improper, and
if her story is given any credence, highly indie
cent.
Mr.. Whitman denied the charge, although he
admitted enough to satisfy all who heard his
statement, that he has been indiscreet.
After a patient hearing of two hours, the
committee decided that the charges are not
proved, though his conduct was declared to be
reprehensible and improper. Arrangements
were at once made by his accuser to have anoth-
er trial in two weeks, when the conference will
meet at this place, at which time full and i'm
partial hearing will no doubt be given, and JUS
| tice done.
