a young man who lives pure in a
large city, the virtue of apoor man
who restores a lost treasure, the vir-
tue of arich man who gives without
ostentation. every sin is allied
to ignorance" Never cast a stone
into a well out of which you have
once drunk" "Who are not for
the sick is all one with a murder
"He who lent money should try
not to meet him to whom be has
lent it." "The house which opens
not to the poor will open to the
physician" at is" says Gittim,
"a duty to support and protect the
poor of other nations as well as
those Of Israel" a doctrine which
Sir Moses Montefiore has not left
unobserved. There is almost in &C.
cess of charity in Kiddushim where
we are told servants should be treat
ed as oneself, with the same kind of
table, of food, of bed, not the lord
to be on a soft bed, but the servant
with oneo of straw, not the lord to eat
delicate dishes, but coarse food to
be given to the servant. "a camel
dances in a pint pot" is a proverb
to reprehend exaggeration, of the
uncertainty of life they say. "Many
old camels carry to market the
skins Of young Ones" as the Ger
man Die Alien begraben oft hire

"He who learns of another a single
letter should for that letter respect
him." Maimonides Gays, eff a
mans father and his Rabbi have
both lost something, the man

for his child's body, but the
Rabbi is responsible for his
mind. Among these things

The San Francisco Chronicle says:
"0n the 9th inst. there arrived in San
Francisco Mr.. Raggio and Harry Rob

On the 25th OF November last Roberts
and two comrades, Clark Colwig and
Louis Raggio, rode up upon Chavez and
a white companion in Yuma county,
Arizona. The bandits we're awsr that
the three white men were in pursuit of
them, and opened fire upon them. The
pursuers responded, and a brief battle
ensued, terminating with the death Of
Chavez by o ball from a revolver. Rob
erts and his comrades, knowing that a
reward vas standing for Chavez, dead or
alive, notified the coroner of Yuma
county. After the inquest Roberts de-
capitated the body and started for Cali.

arrival at Sacramento he found that the
amount of the reward was considerable

remained to the captors of Chavez.
Governor Irwin and the Attorney-Gen

Roberts vent to San Juan, where Chavez
had resided for years, being we'll known
in that locality. Here Roberts procured
from various prominent parties afidavits

turned with them to Sacramento a week
or more ago. There he was informed by
the Attorney-Genera that the appropri'

MANUFACTURING THUNDER FOR


The following cool communica
ton has reached our office from
the Hub of the Universe:
To the Editor:
We would suggest that if you are in
terested in doing Justice to Secretary
Bristow, now a prominent candidate for
the Republican nomination, that you
should give publicity to the enclosed ex
tracts from bis speeches in your col
umns, thus placing his record, such as
1t is, fairly before the people.
In behalf of the Committee on Organi-
cation. PARKER c. CHANDLER,
Chairman.
Boston, May %, 1876.
The extracts referred to are taken
from Bristow's speeches in Ken
lucky during the campaign of 1871,
and theyare sufficiently yoluminous
to fill two pages of the LEDGER.
In defending the infamous civil
rights and Ku-Klux acts, he says:
The penalties of the civil rights and
Ku-Klux acts are aimed solely at the
lawless and violent. No peaceful citi-
zen or low abiding community has APP
prehension Of injury or oppression from
them. A government which cannot pro-
tect its humblest citizen from outrage
and Injury is unworthy the name, and
ought not to command the support of a
free people. But the wicked fee when
nan %pursueth," and when you hear
statutes denounced by Democratic
speakers, you may be sure that either
or their friends have committed, or
are likely to commit, the crimes for
which the punishment is provided,
These are the works of the great Re
publican party of the nation, which saved
the country in war and is able to pre-
serve it in peace. This is the party that
control this free country for years
to come.

with the Third Avenue Savings Bank
was under investigation. An effort was
made to stop the investigation BY a
threat that if HarVey's connection with
the affairs Of the bank was exposed be
would make some damaging revelations
about Mr. Kerr. Mr.. Bliss said he had
told him that he would no. present any
charges against Mr.. Kerr unless they
seemed to be well founded and that be

An Insane Peoples Paper.

The Worcester Mass Spy has a brief
description of a little paper called the
Meteor, which is edited and printed by
the patients Of the Alabama Insane Hos
pital at Tuscaloosa. 1t says that most
Of the articles relate to the subject OF
insanity and its treatment. One article
on " Insane Responsibility" contains this
passage: 1t would benefit all insane
persons, even the inmates of hospitals,
to know that they are smeAable to the
laws of the land. Many q time we have
heard inmates say: If / cut, burn, or
kill, nothing a be done to me. They
say | am insane, That gives me a loop
hole for escape, let me do what / may
We submit that they who can reason
thus ought not to be allowed to do so.
They should be made to know that the
law of the land is for them as for others,
30 far as they are competent.
In another place it is told that the SUI
perintendent not long since called a jury
of patients to decide whether oneof their
number was a thoroughly sane person.
All but one agreed that he was. The
disentient saw but one evidence Of in
sanity; the subject of inquiry was a be-
lever in S%piritualism. 1t appeared on
further inquiry that this charge was not
we'll founded. The patient had only pre-
tended to believe in order to amuse him
self at the expense of his companions.
From this incident the writer draws the
inference that the standard Of sanity is
more exaeting in hospitals than in the
world outside. A good example Of the
wit of these pleasant lunatics is the sug-
gestion that, as insanity is said to be eff.
fectively treated by exposing the patient
to violent light, it would be well to try it
on persons afflicted with chronic drunk
enness, or "metho mania" the effect Of
drinking from a vi%olet-bottomed tumbler.
