The Hard Law.

i Pennsylvania, may not know tina
there is such thing IS . herd law; bu
as an illustration of personal rights o.
the question Of fencing against cattle,
we reproduce the following sensible let
tes from q Granger:
In the Earxsa's E+;esd of April Stl
Granger" takes me to task for opposing
the road cattle nuisance. He seems tt
think that land owners, if too poor u
put up slate post fence, have no right
which he and his friends are bound "a
respect. He finds it very hard to pay q
constable, 81 to take care of his cattle
yet thinks it no injustice to compel his
poorer neighbors to spend their hard
earned money to fortify their land
against his halfstarved brutes. When
wood was plenty, good way to dispose
of it was to build high fences. That
time is past and building fences is be-
coming q luxury only to be INDUCED in
by people who have more money than
they know what to do with. Many poor
people could own land, if the cost of
fencing did not absorb all the profit.
Land is already more heavily taxed than
other property, without additional bur-
den.
Granger cites . case in which one Of
his neighbors let his fence run down,
depending on the law to defend him from
robbery. He did not need q good fence
around his wheat, oats and corn field,
meadows and garden, to confine his cat
tie to his barnyard or pasture fields; and
As the taxes are paid to support our
government, he thought it the duty of
its officers to protect its property from
people who turn out their cattle to steal
q living in their neighbors fence corners,
and it seems the court thought so too.
Every owner of cattle ought to be viii.
ling to pay all damages his cattle may
do to his neighbors' property. This
would not amount to the one-twentieth
of the present yearly loss that is occas-
toned by the crops that are trampled
under foot, broken rails that must be re-
placed, cost Of keeping dogs that are kept
to protect their owners land, etc. Daily
Is I hear the yells of dogs and the
screams of the tortured animals, l think
how much better it would be if the dogs
Of Law could be turned On the owners Of
those unfortunate animals. SIS is not
TOO much to teach man that his neigh
bors have rights which he is bound to
respect. A few such examples will soon
each these folks that It don't pay to
turn their cattle on the road. As for
his act causing spite it is all nonsense.
If people want to act spitefully they may

know that my neighbors would not sue

turned my cattle on the road.

Striking manners are bad manners.
Civility costs nothing and buys every
thing.
If thou art a master be sometimes
blind; if a servant, sometimes deaf.
If thou hast fear of those who com.
mand thee, spare those who obey thee.
Misfortune makes of certain souls a
vast desert, through which rings the
voice of God.
1t is seldom that God sends such
calamities upon man as men bring upon
themselves and suffer willingly.
The effect of supreme and irrevocable
misfortune is to elevate those souls which
it does not deprive of all virtue.
That chastity of look which seems to
hang veil of purest light over all her
beauties, by forbidding most inflames
desires.
The greatest ornament of an illustrious
life is modesty and humility, which 60 a
6aCos "0y Au SuO Cu010CVcI cSCu VI Tic
moet exalted princes.
A modest person seldom fails to gain
the good will of those he converses with
because nobody envies a man who does
not appear to be pleased with himself.
The more a man follows nature and is
obedient 10 her laws the longer he will
live; the further he deviates from these
the shorter will be his existence.
Incidence is delightful but distressing
state; we must be doing something to be
happy. Action is no less necessary than
thought to the instructive tendencies of
the human frame.
We protract the career of time by EN-.
ployment, We lengthen the duration of
our lives by wise thoughts and useful
actions. Life to him who wishes not to
have lived in vain is thought and action.

An Untimely Order.
From the Boston Daily Advertiser.


We do not we'll understand why Attorney
General Pierrepont has thought it necessary
at this late stage of the whisky ring prosecu-
| tons to issue instructions to the effect that
none of the indicted need expect any consid-
GRAFTON or mercy on account of turning States
evidence. The success that has attended the
prosecutions hitherto has been owing in
great part to the fact that some of those in
the ring have been induced to testify to what
they knew. Without their evidence several
Of the most important convictions would
never have been obtained. They have been
of the greatest aid to the government in un-
raveling the secret threads Of the conspiracy.
Without some explanation it does not ap-
pear quite wise that at this point, when it is
reported that some of the captured rascals in
Chicago and Milwaukee are about to make
disclosures that will bring into question the
characters Of prominent politicians, all en-
couragement to do SO should be suddenly
withheld. Every honorable indictment to
make those who were inside, and who know
the parties involved, yield up all their knowl-
edge should be applied. The public interest
is more subserved by an exposure Of the un-
suspected respectable parties, who have con-
nived at and profted by the frauds, than by
the punishment Of underlings, store keepers
of guagers, who did not devise the iniquity,
but were corrupted by the acts OF those whom
they served.
The big rascals are of more account than
the little ones. There is no policy that
wreaks itself on the victims and prevents the
detection Of the principals. The country is
very we'll satisfied with Secretary Bristow's
management of his business so far, and it will
not regard with favor any interference with
his plans 1t is comparatively small matter
IN
escape the disgrace Of exposure should have
their punishment mitigated if thereby others
who deserve infamy quite as much may be
caught and punished. The original instruc-
ton was, We believe, ''Let no guilty man
escape"

There are grounds for believing that it is
not only on account of the prosecution of
Babcock that Grant has cooled the fervid
heat Of mis- admiration for Secretary Bristow.
1t is asserted that ex-Assistant Secretary Saw.
yer will, in his defense to the indictment
found against him for completely in the Park
man-Brooks cotton frauds, offer evidence to
show that he acted by the express order Of
the President in directing the Controller to
pass the claims. 1t - also asserted that in
other jobs and swindles which Bristow has
investigated, such as the Seal Lock case, the
Alaska Seal Oompany's contract ETC., evil
dence has been found to the effect that the
corruption involved was made possible by the
action of the President, and that he has used
his position and influence in the interest of
the unquestionably dishonest purposes Of his
friends The cool politeness on the part of
the President is extending to Messrs Pierre
pont, Fish and Jewell Gentlemen who have
observed the Signs predict that Brietow will
vacste his place in the Cabinet at or about
the time Of the conclusion Of the Babcock
trial, no matter what may be the verdict ia
that case.
