This is the advice contained in one Of ou
exchanges, and what a good thing it woulC
be if all would follow it, But The hare
times, the scarcity of money, the debts wC
are called on to pay when we haven't the
stamps, and provisions to buy, all tend tC
make u feel anything bat cheerful. How.
ever, it does not make matters any better tc
feel bad about these things, 50 we hope our
readers will comply with what the article
referred to says:
1t is now the time to show what kind OF
metal you are made Of Never was there a
period within our recollection where there
was SO loud a call for the display of cheer
tul spirit. Times are dull and there's q de-
pressed teelingin the community, which, like
certain appetitcs, grows with that it feeds
upon The stronger the manifestation of
this spirit Of croaking, the farther OFF will be
the day Of reCuperation. We have had Il
long season of dullness, but it cannot last
forever, In the opinion of many whose
opinions are Of value, the bottom must be
nearly reached, and then will come more
prosperous seasons. The long protracted
strikes, that have so seriously damaged the
business interests Of the country, must soon
end. They are beginning to show unmis-
taxable signs of yielding, and as soon as la
Dor and capital are once more in harmony,
the idle millions lying in banks and other
places Of safety will be brought into active
play, the cheerful hum of busy and profta-
bic industry will superscde the discouraging
silence that for nearly two years has prevail
ed in our factories and workshops, and we
shall start afresh on our career of prosperi-
ty.
"Then wear cheerful countenance, even
though your hearts are not in keeping with
the expression of your faces. Curtail ex-
penses here and there lop off useless and
perhaps a costly expenditure in this direc-
ton, and by retrenchment and economy
strive to make up for the deficits in your in
comes, consequent upon hard times. If
everybody could be prevailed upon to look
cheerful and contented, everybody would
soon come to the conclusion that although
there is not much profit in business Just now,
the day cannot be far distant when this gen
eral buoyant feeling will override all difficult
ties, and bright sunshine will supersede the
gloom of the hour.

At best, life goes i'll with woman in the
main. Allectiolateness is her strong weak
side, and man unremittingy attacks it, She
has a haunting apprehension, that in some
prevailing love, thrilling her blood and
brain, her nerves and heart, lies her safety
and peace. But she can never anticipate it,
nor measure its force, 1t may not come,
To many it does not; to Others it comes too
late; whence agonizing repression, or brok-
en- vows-tragedies without end, sometimes
without name. Nevertheless, woman's orig
inal stock of hope, elasticity, and cheerful
ness is so greatly in excess Of ours that in
the third, fourth and fifth act of the tragic
comedy, hers is the ampler residue. Nature,
who allotted her the larger share of suffer-
ing, in mercy granted her superior endur-
ance. Itis particularly hard that she should
be beset in her youth by the hunger of her
heart, and prosecuted through man by the
hunger of the senses, As respects her, no
sin so sinless as her fall, and none so inhu-
manly punished. On him who betrays her
through her deepest trust and holiest feeling,
the world yet reirains from placing the re-
sponsibility- So fonl an injustice cannot
withstand much longer the advancing wave

An Eastern paper speaks of "trotting car
nivals," The word carnival is much abused,
but this is about the worst misapplcation of
it we have ever seen, Literally, it means
farewell to meat and is used to designate the
festivities practced in Roman Catholic coun-
tries during the last week before Lent. BY
loose usage it has come to signify any kind
of excitement, and we have musical carni,
walls, carnivals of crime, and now a trotting
carnival. Possibly, however, the sportsmer
who are getting up a carnival, intend at it,
conclusion, to bid farewell to horseaesh, an(
if this is so the word is not misapplied.

The Picayune says: II there is one
man more responsible than another tor
the misfortunes of Louisiana, it is Gem
eral Phil. Sheridan. 1t was General
Sheridan who dislranchised the white Of
this State under the first reconstruction
law, acting in concert with the Radical
Commissioners secretly instructing the
registrars to catechise the voters in a
manner which, whilst it was clearly ille-
gal, made it impossible for the vast num-
bers OF white people to register. 1t was
General Sheridan who induced Congress

A R0bberu and .FOra ri.

A young German, by the name of Aug.
Schrage, in the employ of a dairyman, on
the Reading pike named Henry Macke,
was yesterday morning robbed OF $43 in
money and a note against Rev. Edward
Purcell, calling tor 500, both of which
were taken from his room. They are
supposed to have been taken by man
known by the name OF "Dietrich," who,
some time ago, was employed in the
same dairy. Dietrich undoubtedly was
too conversant with the pecuniary affairs
of Schrage, for as soon as he obtained
possession of the note he Immediately
left for the Rev. PurcelPs residence at
the Cathedral, demanded the money, OBJ
tanned it, forged the name of Schrage for
a signature and then lett, and has not
been seen since. Schrage feels the loss
very heavily, as the money was earned
by hard laboy. The police have been no.
titled of the affair. but as yet no clue has
been found as to the whereabouts. either
of Dietrich or the money.

The Scalp Inquest.

The scalp inquest was commenced by
Coroner Maley and jury this after

The principal witness sworn was Mrs.
Schultz, wife of the missing man, Law
renee Schultz, who restitied t.iat the
hair and beard of the scalp are
of the same color as that Of her
husband. That he left home on the 9th
of November and had otsince returned.
That he had always lived peaceably with
his family and the only enemies lie had
were parties in Indiana named More and
tAbden, whom he had testified against in
. criminal case, and that he had ex-
pressed fears of their vengeance.
The testimony of George Coombs, who
drove the ash cart that picked up the
scalp and that OF Mr.. Kippert. who came
from ButesyilIe to this city with Schultz
on the night Of his disappearance, was
taken but threw no new light ON the
mystery.
