1874. The history of his war on
Tammany and Of his scarcely less de-
termined onslaught upon the Canal
Ring is too fresh in the pubic mind to
need narration here. The one made
him Governor of the State of New York
and both combined have made him the
democratic candidate for the Presiden
CIV of the United States.

for censure, is It not posi-
bic taat with an opportunity for expia-
nation it may be removed? Even If
there is real cause for blame, is it your
privilege or special province to judge
as we'll as prosecute, and convict without
an opportunity for defense? How mich
that seems clouded in earthly affairs
would appear clear, if the light of. truth
was admitted! How much that is OBJ
scure would appear plain, If all the cir
cumstances were known!
While it is the duty of everybody to
form a true estimate of the character Of
his associates, SO as to govern his own
intercourse with them, this privilege
does not give license to sway or influ-
ence the minds of others. We may be
controlled unwittinsly ty prejudices,
the Judgment may err from partial
knowledge of surroundings, or we may
have heard falsehoods uttered, or the
truth mistated, and unless influenced
by some morbid impulse which destroys
free agency, lampoonry cannot be con-
sidered less than a crime, destructive
alike of reputation and she well-being
of society.
The insidiousness of the scandal
monger is a prevailing characteristic.
The individual addicted 10 tale clearing
is the professed friend of many and the
real friend of nobody. The nature OF
the calling makes it necessary for them
to possess general information as to
the peculiar habits of their neighbors,
as we'll as confdants to whom their
revelations may he made. And these
relative positions are convertible. The
victim to-day may be the recipient OF
disclosures tomorrow, and the friend Of
to-day may have been under quite as
merciless lash yesterday. Nothing is
held sacred by them. The garb Of
friendship is used as convenient cloak
for obtaining confessions which are
, slowed away in memory until favorable
:. time arrives whereby they may be en-
ployed to "point a moral or adorn a
tale"
Shun tale-bearer as you would con.
tagion. Reputation is not safe against
: his vigorous assaults. The chain Of
friendship has been broken by his iusidi.
wiles. The seeds of contention are
y scattered by him with lavish hand, and
3 misery follows in his footsteps.

SOCIAL. GOSSIP.

There is probably no small sin more
destructive of the peace of society than
the habit of commenting upon the faults
and foibles of friend and foe in pro.
miscuous assemblsges of either sex.
Still it is 80 common, that the scandal
mongers are tolerated IS an unavoidable
ingredient Of humanity considered in
the aggregate, and but little care is
taken to sift what few grains of truth
they may bring from the preponderance
of chat, and form o true estimate Of
their structures upon the mortal who
for the nonce is the victim under ban.
Poor erring humanity is SO constituted
that it prefers to believe evil rather
than good report, and any choice tit
bit of social scandal is rolled under the
tongue with relish never accorded to
that which elevates or refnes body and
mind. Social gossip is considered
harmless, or INDUCED in without
thought Of the possible consequences,
by many who would recoil at uttering q
malicious slander. yet wherein it diff
fers is only in the intent and not in ef.
feet. If ono happens to be ll-tem-
pered at times, does this justify q recital
Of facts which may b. taken as an index
Of his whole nature D. If one should oc-
casually err in Judgment, should it be
held up as an indication Of want Of ca
pacity in all the affairs Of life? If one
should appear to disadvantage under
some peculiar condition Of circumstan-
ces, should this obscure or diminish the

AcGowsn vs.. Amable Petit, on appeal from
tho Second District, the appeal wss dis
missed. ]. r. Lewis. Chief Justice. in de.
living the opinion Of the court said the case
was an important one, involving questions of
mucl, moment raised and decided Ia the court
below which had been ably argued by the
counsel. He added: THE Legislative As
semblies of this Territory have deemed it ex-
pedient, from time to time, to enact numer-
GUS amendments to our Civil Practice acts,
and especially as to appellate proceedings
in this court; and our last Legislative Assem-.
bly, repealed all former statutes Of appeal
and enacted an entirely new and different
statute upon that subject, from any We have
before had. The statutes heretofore In force
have been fully construed by this court, and
were understood by the bar, 20 that there
was but little difficulty in getting case pro-
perly before this court for review. The sys-
tenn adopted by the last Legislature, doubt
less is an excellent one, but does not dove
tail In with our practice act, and we are, as
it were, at sea again upon the question of ap-
peal. As to the wisdom of such legislation,
that is question solely for the Legislature.
That the result is most embarrassing to the
bar. and expensive to parties litigant, there
is no doubt. While it Is annoying to this
court, to dismiss causes brought here for
argument and decision on thAir merits, it is
our duty to expound the Ian - enacted by
the Legislature, and wheneyer 1t is apparent
that we have no jurisdictios Of cause it

the performers are amateurs, they can

their action on the stage showed that
they had been carefully trained. They
almost completely avoided over-acting,
and at the same time were never tame

Mr.. E. L. Baker, on Main street west
side between Third and Bush. Itoccu-
pies three stories and the basement of
the large building in which the store is
located and parts of the two upper sto-
ries of the building adjoining, and every
foot of this extensive place is generally
filed with goods. In the ground story
is the sales room, where every variety
of shelf goods, tools, farming tools,
nails, tinware, stoves, ETC., are displayed.
Among these is one Of the most hand

saw. It is known as the
ST. JAMES RANGE,
and whether regarded as an evidence of
mechanical ingenuity and skill, a hand
some piece of kitchen furniture, or an
article Of utility, it deserves and must
call forth admiration. As a cooking
range it stands pre-eminent for conven-
fence, excellence, durability, and cheap
ness. It has six covers or griddles, &
very large oven, an immense reservoir,
two heating closets, cabinet top, and
two replaces; and the flues and dam
pers are so arranged that the heat may
be shut off from any apartment, con-
centrated upon any one, or ditfused
through all, and these are so simple and
easily understood that no dtficultY can
occur in working them. Besides these
advantages, it consumes but little fuel
and costs but little more than q good
