There is a clause in the appropria-
ton bill passed by the legislature
which makes an appropriation for the
Payment of sundry'o old claims against
the State, and provides that the war
rants issued therefor shall DC funded,
or received for back taxes at the OPP
ton Of the holder. This measure will
result in paying off an amount Of in
debtedness now standing against the
State with the back taxes that can be
paid at reduced rates. Representative
Souer Of Ayoyelles took very active
interest in putting this measure
through the House, and is entitled to
the thanks OF that large and respect
able class Of citizens known as de-
lin4uent tax payers."-State Register.

GLOBE MORNING. MARCH "a 1875

due of Haverhill about midnight on Its way
north, nsd consisted of an engine and tend
er, baggage and smoking car, a passenger
car and Pullman sleeping car. The tender
was thrown from the rails, but the engine
and baggage car held the track, while pas
senger car, Passumpsic car, nearly new,
followed by the Pullman car, left the track,
tearing up the rails for hundred feet in
their progress. The rear trucks of the
passenger car were entirely detached from
the car, and both cars were dismounted,
resting against the bank on the right
Had the accident happened hundred
feet further on, Of had they been thrown
to the left instead of the right they would
have been precipitated down an embank-
ment some thirty feet, giving one shud-
dering idea of what Knight have been y
Fortunately the travel Saturday night was
light, there being but twelve passengers
and the train men, but more fortunate still
only one person was injured. This was n
lady ON her way to Barnet. 1t is thought
her injuries are not serious, as she was
able TO continue her journey Sunday morn
ing. They succeeded in getting the engine
tender on the track about eight o'clock
| Sunday morning, with which and the bag
gage car, containing the passengers, they
| proceeded to Woodsvilc A wrecking
train arrived from Lake Village, and the
track was made clear for travel Monday.
| The cause of the accident is attributed to
the spreading of the rails, and as it &C
Cured upon sharp curve 1t Is wonder

TOLERArsON AND INTOLERANCE.

The progress of christianity, from the
day when the Savior Of mankind first pro-
claimed His divine mission down to the
massacre of the Protestants in Acapulco,
during the present year, has ever been
marked by distinctive and Numerically
diverse characteristics. On the one hand,
we find professed christians eXemplifying,
80 far as it is permitted TO mere humanity,
in their daily life and walk, all the blessed
precepts Of the Divine Master, an illus
trating, over again, His purity Of life, sim
phcity of character, eyer-aboundng chart
", and His love for God aud man. On the
other hand, His professed followers are
found filled with bigotry and superstition,
a zeal for propagandsm which stops at no
excuses and hesitates not at blood The
onward. path of religion, or professed
christianity, is marked, on the one side,
with zeal tempered with mercy, by deeds
of love and charity, by an earnest desire
for the moral, spiritual and temporal wei
fare Of mankind On the other side, its
path is strewed with bleached bones and il
is marked by the torch, by rapine and in
discriminate slaughter. Its zeal knows
not mercy, II stays not, if so be it can
can gain fancied foothold, at the cry of
aifrighted innocence or the protest of shud-
dering humanity. The Jews, when they
crucified the Son of God, vainly imagined
that they were doing Gods service. His
pure and bIameless life, His prayer,
'Father forgive them, for they know moi
what they do" His cry of expiring love,
moved them not, for, to them He was q
blasphemer, malefactor they had law,
