Slander.

There is no vile practice that the public
are less protected against by law than
this. The tongue of the wretch, if he can
skulk behind his poverty, is left free to
fabricate and proclaim any bare lie, and
provided he is ingenious enough to make
it appear plausible, he will gam more or
less credit. and against this the innocent
have no defense. You may prosecute the
worthless wretches and then pay your
own costs, and they will laugh at you in
scOrn, but if the fine in such cases, if not
paid, would require them to be locked up
or work it out in the penitentiary, or in
some other manner. the number of such
sensational communications would be
greatly lessened; but now while the law
seals the mouth of those having property
the drunken, worthless liars and scape
graces from other states Willy respecta-
bi1ity without stint. Thanks to our law
makers there is one redeeming feature, if
they write or cause to be written or pub
lished those black-hearted imaginings,
they can then be reached criminaily and
be punished by Imprisonment.

The Tidal Wave Reaches
Painesville.
Large and Enthusiastic Meetings of
the CitiZens-The Druggists the
First to Sign the Piedge-The Sa.
looms to be Visited by the Ladies.

The Movement i'm Painesviile.
The pastors of all the churches in Pain
esvil1e preached to their several congrega-
tions on the subject of temperance last
Sunday morning; and in the evening
large union meeting was held in the Con-
gregational Church, at which addresses on
the subject were made by Revs. Peters,
Moore, Youmans and Daley. At the close
it was announced that a Temperance
Mass Meeting would be held in the same
place the next evening, to deliberate on
what shall be done to rid our town of the
evils of the liquor traffic.
THE MEETING MONDAY EVENING.
Pursuant to the call for Temperance
Mass Meeting" the large audience room
of the Congregational Church was filled to
overfiowing on Monday evening. The
audience numbered from 1000 to 200 OF
our best people and showed by the deep
interest manifested, and the fact of their
venturing out on such a stormy night. that
the ''tidal wave" had indeed reached this
place. The meeting was called to order
by the Hon. r. Hitchcock, who called upon
Rev. T. r. Peters to offer prayer. after
which the speaker nominated the Hon.
George Steele as Chairman OF the meeting
The motion prevailed and MIR. Steele took
the chair. Mr.. c. f. Brink was then elect
ed Secret ary. The Chairman then called
on Mr.. Horatio Ford, of Cleveland to ad-
dress the meeting. Mr.. Ford spoke for
about twenty minutes very earnestly,
dwelling particularly upon the sufferings
of the women resulting from the liquor
traffic and their right to move in the mat
ter of redress.
Rev. Mr.. Dissette, of Berea, o., was the
next speaker. He spoke of the necessity
of the work OF reform; public sentiment
and the mission-of the women in this dir
ection; dwelling at some length upon the
work done in Berea and the southern part
of this state, and the necessity in every
case of first seeking the counsel and guild
ance of the Holy Spirit.

COPIES, THREE CENTS
Costly Funerals.

1--WE shall hail the day with pleasure
when the mode Of sepulchre shall be
simple, and the laying of the dead in
the earth will not heavily burden the
living. When dust to dust is so ex,
pensive, is it any wonder that the GER
mationists have received countenance,
whom they offer, at trifing outlay
and in the old classic fashion, to turn
into 'ashes to ashes'?"
"Whoever will inaugurate a move
ment' against expensive funerals will
be benefactor. 1t will be Christian
charity for the churches to begin a cru
sade against the costs of collins"
When Baron Anselm de Rothschild,
possessor of $500, 900, 900, recently de-
ceased, was buried, the utmost simpli.
cily, pervaded the ceremonies. There
was no display of expense. The hearse
was drawn by two horses-four plumed
and stately steeds are quite common in
this country on the occasion of the in
terment of some pretentious body and
few servants walked in quiet order
behind him.
There is as much ostentatlon, display,
and vanity in modern fashionable
funeral as in anything else; but 1t is in
bad taste, and onght to be frowned
down. It is for the living, rather than
for the dead, our means, our energies,
and our best services should be given.
If simplicity and economy are any
where in good taste, it is in dlsposing
of the dead, whom you can no more
benefit, however much may be expend-
ed on their remains. A decent, mex
pensive burial is most consistent with
moral respect and honor.-From Phren-
illogical Journal.
