NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. all that has been

NOTWITHSTANDING all that has been
said about the selflshness and siniulnesS
Of this age Of the world, Its general char
acter is constantly relieved by mAgnif-
cent charities, such as were never known
to It's predecessors. Rich menzused TO
give vast sums to the church at their
death, with the selfish idea otpromoting
their welfare In the next world thereby, but
seldom gave anything to practical objects
that were purely charitable. Nowadays,
however, men like PEABODY give colossal
fortunes away to the cause Of education
and to other institutions intended to sme.
liorate the condition Of needy humanity.
The following dispatch from Boston a
day or two since illustrates what we
mean: ..FsE
BosroN, Mass, Dec. 16.-Among the
public beneiactions Of the late Seth
Adams, designated, in his will, are the
following requests 10 Boston charitable
institutions: $1,000 to the Needle Wo

A Story with a Moral 10 II.

Two or three years ago Il. T. HELM
BOLD was immensely rich. His adver-
tisements were in all the newspapers
His "buchu" medicines were all the 60
He had 100000 drug store under the
Metropolitan Hotel in New York. He

He was very rich. His riches made q
fool Of him. Tho result is that to-day he

lean press to wipe out old scores against
him for delinquent advertising debts, and
let him start again. BE makes this frank
confession in his appeal: uetl
"Elated with my unexampled business
success, and carried away with the delusive
Idea that notorety was only another name
for popularity, / followed the example Of
other prosperous business men and In.
dulged In too extravagant expenditure.
Cares thickening, caused shadows to fit
actoes my path and Greeted my attention
from business y he INDUCED too freely,
and followed too many shadows" prob:
ably. His business, In tho hands of
agents, ran down, and misfortune over
took him moro rapidly than his fortune
was made. Tho Sheriff took possession;
his $4,000 stable Of horses and carriages
was sold for about $1,000; Ills 100000
drug store brought only about $4,000:
his Long Branch summer castle went Of
for song. He was bankrupt, and his
property was sacrificed at a lamenlable
rate. BE was called crazy; but tina. is not
what allied him., He had been gay.
Here Is lesson for others. But II Is moi,
BY any means, q solitary case Of the kind.

The rivalry between Martins Ferry
and Bridgeport has broken out edltorially,
we observe in the Ohio Valley Rens, and
finds rellet In third Of column In that
paper of yesterday, It seems that Mar
tins Ferry lately tried to do what DAWES
accused BEN BUTLER of doing 10 Con-
gress on Wednesday-viz. 'sureptitious'
" incorporate" something not hitherto
in the bill. BEN was caught and had to
confess. Whether Martins Ferry was
caught trying 10 incorporate within Its
limits the village Of Etnaville does not
appear clearly E.om the NttoS article, but
the Belmont Chronicle intimates that such
was the case. The Neps does not deny
the gentle insinuation made by the
Chronicle, but gets up diversion in the
way OF a flank attack OF o general
character On the Bridgeporters, say.
Ing, among other things, TIA. -E.Ha-
vile Ia more o creature oil Mar
tins Ferry than Of Bridgeport; that
more money has been invested in 1t by
that place than by Bridgeport; that more
work in the new mill has been done by
Martins Ferry contractors than by
Bridgeport men; that by its location
Enavllle belongs more to Martins Ferry
than to Bridgeport; and, finally, the Rs'0S
winds up with the following cruel para
graph that seems to US decidedly cslcula.
ted to seriously compllcate the delicate re.
lations hitherto existing between tho two
places:
MARTINS Ferry enterprise and Martins
Ferry liberality Is all that has ever kept
Bridgeport alive. The principal part OF
the stock in the Bridgeport Bank has
been owned by the moneyed men OF Mar
tins Ferry, and taxed to keep up appear.
ances in Bridgeport. II Bridgeport now
feels that they are able TO go 1t alone,
Martins Ferry will BIO relieved OF o bur-
den which 1t has carried Tor these many
years Tor the sake o! charity"
The idea Of taxing the stock Of the
monied men OF Martins Ferry in the
Bridgeport Bank to keep up appearances
in Bridgeport strikes US as something that
will DO news to all parties concerned.
