1t is funny, but nevertheless true, that
some men in Bolivar would willingly
see fellow-being sunk in the lowest
depths of degrad ton for no other pur.
pose shan to have their prophecies fulfill
ed. Such individuals are as devoid of
christian attributes as hog is of clean
illness, and eTince their sha!lowness of
brain by measuring others according to
their niggardly deGormities. Whenever
you hear fellow predicting evil of his
neighbor, watch him closely, and ten to
one you will find him ready and willing
to rejoice at his downfall or gIoat over
ones misfortuaes. Such miserable
devils in human shape are so many ul-
GERS on society, with whom we care not
to council or fellowship. We admire
the man who has kindly word for a
noble effort, and a supreme contempt for
the lecherous dog who is every ready to
exclaim-" there, told You so r.
