A WIFR's PowER-A good wife is to
man, wisdom, strength and courage;
a bad one is confusion, weakness and
despair. No condition is hopeless to a
man where the wife possesses firmness,
decision and economy There is no
outward propriety which can counteract
incidence, extravaganza and folly at
home. No spirit can long endure bad
influence. Man is strong; but his heart
is not adamant. He needs a tranquil
mind; and especially if he is an intelli
gent man, with a whole head, lie needs
its moral force in the conflict of life.
To recover this composure, home must
be place of peace and comfort There
his soul renews its strength, and goes
forth with renewed vigor TO encounter
the labor and troubles OF life. But if ut
home he finds no rest, and there is met
with bad temper, jealousy and gloom, or
assailed with complaints or censure, hope
vanishes, and he sinks into despair.

So far a. t1a perjury charge goes, thu

merely means confesaion that its candidate
is q perjurar, and au adoption Of ths usual
wesk subterfuge Of llars by exclaiming
"xours anotLar," with the usual Difference
tlnt there Ia proof on one sida and mere par.
than aud malicious speculation on tha other.
But tho other charge which the Iines
brings against Gov. HAYEs may not be dis
missod 10 easily. This is even moro serious
than tho charge (not yet subs.antiated) to
which tho Staat*.ztitung hns directed our IT.
tenttop, viz.; TINT Gov. HAYES, as member
Of tho Centennial Commission, voted against
opening ths Philadelphia Exposition on Sun
days. Now It may bo admitted that
the popular prejudice against takins human
life is rs general ~ the German prejudice
agan$t tho Puritan and "Mucksr" Sab
bata. When tie Ilme., therefore, charges
Gov. HAYES with being q murderer, 1t is
tine to pause and consider. We do not care
t9 entor into any psychological investigation
as to tlla relative crimiaslity Of murder and
perjury We will defer to tue popular notion,
and admit from the outset that, II Gov.
HAYES il murderer, he il worse man than
Gov. ltLpxN es q rerjuxez. We do not

nominated very wicked man for President,

cago Times was naturally the chosen agent
for this sort Of dirty work, and it has begun
by charging that Gov. HAYES IL not merely
porjnrer but murderer; what tho TINES
will probably mako him out 10 be before the
campaign is over, having begun tho record
with murder, is beyond tho scope of tho or
binary imagination, and wo fear it will test
Tho capacity Of tho Polita 'dazette's ,qhicago
edition forcriminal phraseoloRy{ towork up the
proper climax. In setting forth tho, caso Of
Gov. HAxrs ns a porjurcr, the Times rather
injudiciously revenlu tbs vto!ocation and

TINT tho case has boen fully made out ngainst

support for tho Presidency. 1t in a confess

NEWS OF THE WEEK
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

The war party have gained complete ascen-
ddncy in Servia, and the struggle for indepen.
dance will be prosecuted to the bitter end.
Gen. Tchernayeff promises to drive the Turks
completely out Of servia, aud to carry the war
into Turkish territory.
The German and French Governments have
expressed themselves satisfied with the repara-
ton offered by Turkey for the murders at
Salonica-
The dominions Of the King of Dahomey are
no particularly healthful or pleasant for Eu-
ropeans at present. That unamiable black
savage has shut up the Caucasian strangers
within his gates, and threatens to massacre
them.
The Turks lost $4,000 men in the battles be-
fore Alexinatz.
Germany has decided to send an officer to
the Turkish headquarters to report any further
cruelties.
The Porte refuses to grant an armistice until
the preliminaries for peace are settled.
The fact is now pretty well established that
Prince Milan has sought the good offices of
the Great Powers to the end that they may
use their influence with the Porte in securing
cessation of hostilities in Servia and Monte
negro, with view to subsequent negotiations
which shall lead to ultimate peace. The
Princes proposition has been forwarded to the
several governments by the foreign representa-
tives at Belgrade and replies may be expected
shortly.
