rHETEnPERANCE AGITATION.

We observe that ore of our respected
contemporaries is disposed 10 dis
pArsge the Murphy temperance move
me,t, on the ground that it does more
harm to the cause sought TO be advanced
than 1t does good. It argues, substanti
ally, that under the influence OF artificial
enthusiasm, and with the encourage.
ment OF pledges, badges, brass bands,
hymns, prayers, and more or less
logical causes Of excitement,
hard drinkers come forward and an
nounce their conversion perhaps too
confidently, sign their names to an
agreement which they honestly intend
10 keep, and the news is published as a
triumph Of the cause of temperance, but
IS soon as the excitement has passed
away and the victims are no longer sup
ported by the combination of csuses
which inspired their virtuous resolutions
they easily fall back into their former
condition, and within s short time after
village has been converted to temper.
Ence It shows no traces whatever to tell
OF the passage of the revival in the
place.
There Is. doubtless, some foundation
'0f thi' criticism, yet It is aot entirely

just-or, rather, 1t ls tco sweeping. We
do know that the MURPHY movement
has done some good in Wheeling, has
reclaimed some who have stuck. Many
have "backslid," it is true; but even the
few that have stuck suffice to establish
the value of the efforts of the reformera.
This movement holds the place in morals
that revivsls do in religion, and failures
come about from similar causes,
1t may be, as some argue, shallow and
weak for person TO be permanently sf-
fected by the artificial enthusiasm of
one of these revivsls after having
resisted the deep and eternal in
huences which appeal to every one of US
to make US sober and religious, but we
are not sure that this is q Just view oi
it. Different persons are differently al
fected. The degradation OF drunken
ness, its folly, its waste, its misery, and
the widespread and endless train Of sor-
rows in which it involves its victims and
those dearest to them successfully appeal
to some and restrain them from fatal in
dulgences, but others are Influenced by,
what seems to this class, lighter causes.
There are those whose weakness has
yielded to the allurements of drink,
even after experience has strip
ped these alurements OF their de-
ception, yet who are weak enough, if
you please, 10 feel that there
is something heroic in publicly walking
up to the platform and assuming that
they can break tae chains of the tyrant
habit by sn effort of the will, aided, it
may be hoped, BY Divine grace.
Let US give these temperance move
ments all possible credit for good inten-
tona, and for the good they actually ac'
complsh. They may not have accom-.
plished all that could be desired, but we
do know OF homes made happy and IN
dustry prosperous where formerly de-
bauch followed in the wake of csrousal.

PITTSBURGH PARAGRAPHS.
Suicide at HOtel-rhe supposed
Abortion Case-ShOcking Death Of
n Young Girl.

PITTSBURGH, December 81. r. Abb
bey, supposed TO be u pork man from
Jersey City, took room at the National
Hotel last night. lie did not get up
this morning, and at noon Mr.. Brill, the
clerk, burst in the door. Abbey wss in
bed dead. A bottle labelled lsudanum
wss on the mantel. On the bed was iy.
ing a revolver, and on the floor stood a
partially emptied whisky bottle. Il Is
said that some one noticed Abbey had
spent tho greater part OF the night IN
writing, but for what purpose cannot be
coniectured, rs he had gathered sll his
papers, and, placing them upon the
hearth, had burned them. The testhery
fragments OF ashes showed tina. paper
had composed the ire.
The Only thing found discovering any
trace of thought on the part OF the
suicide was piece of wrapping paper
on which he had written "GoOd bye" It
Is supposed that he had intended to
iesye an account of his death and the
causes leading up to it, but after essay
ing to do so for the greater part OF the
night, gave up the task in disgust, and

The Coroner returned this evening

of Mary Newton had been buried, and
that the doctors had evidently hurried

she was found in spssms, and surprised
the family by giving birth to five
months infant, as her condition had not
been suspected. Sne renamed IN an un-

THETRAuP QUESTION.

In yesterday mornings REGIsTER we
called public attention to the costhness
of the luxury the people OF this city ara
apioying in the manner OF treating Va
grants. d.unksTds s0d disorderly per
sons. All that We said Is admitted to be
true. but we are told there is no remedy
not for the present at least-thst the
people are helpless; that Council Is
bound hand and loot by the charter that
We must grin and bear it until legislation,
which was passed last winter and Which
will take effect in May, 1879, can operate
From this view OF the question we en-
phstjcally dissent. Some OF these va
grants 20 in AL unvsrying round from
the street to the Police Court, thence to
the abortion of work-house, thence ~
the street agsin; and the peoples pockets
are tolled at every turn of the crank. 1t
costs to arrest them; 1t costs to try ana
sentence them, and it costs TO feed and
shelter them. Now, we maintain, that
the system should be made selt-sustain-
ing; and we believe IL can be.
First. we want work house where 3
rigid discipline can De enforced. Provision
mus. be made for working the prisoners
sentenced TO it, just Is coHV.cLs IN
the penitentiary are worked. We are
told that some of those committed have
not sufficient clothing to protect them
from the biting breczas-theretore, they
csnnot be employed in outdoor work
Then put upon their backs cheap sult
Of some such material ~ the Stfte turn-
ishes to her uubidden guests, and make
them work J they pay for it. These
men who are sent up every thirty days
are, many OF them, dead beats, and thor
imprisonment Las no reiormaIory IN
auence upon them. The authorizes
know perfectly well that as soon as their
sentence shsll expire they will be up
for sentence again. Such people should
BE- sentenced with more vigor, and
worked with more vigor during their
term of impr sonment.
l. is not of the officers fees we COM
plain, but of the impotence Of the punish
men, imposed. Why, most OF these men
had rather vibrate between the lock up
and the workhouse than not. That
tabernacle on the hillside Is sort OF
winter Saratoga for them. They toll not
neither do they break stone unless they
wsnt to, yet SOLOMON in all his glory
wss not as tree from care as they are.
1t iss rejection upon the good sense
OF the members of Council to say that
our present system of Furnishing vsgrSn-
cy and disorder is the best they can con-
lrive. We hope to see some practical
member bring forward some practical
plan to put an end to the present stuPidi-
" without much delay.

PHILADELPHIA, December 9.-There
was an accidental shooting case under
unusual circumstances at No. AIS Nc
Twain street this afternoon. Lewis
Myers, had been paying attentions to
Pauline Strelcher, living with her aunt
there. but she had forbidden him the
house because he always came with II
loaded revolver. This afternoon ne
came again, drunk, with Henry Russell,
a glass. blower, but she was out. They
sent for her, and on her arrival, Myers
took out his revolver again, but Russell,
who was a stranger at the house, seized
and took it away He was seated at
table by the side OF the girl, trying to re
move the cartridge, when 1t went of, the
ball passing through the girls heart, and
she fell dead. She was the oldest OF
eleven children, and her father lived IN
Pittsburgh. Both men were held to
await the result OF an inquest.

Che Wall street Gang Of Money
Sharks

Alarmed at the indies Ions OF strength
developed for the silver bill in the Sen
ate, have made arrangements to send
committee here to use every effort, honest
or dishonest, to defeat action on the bill
this week. Particularly are they to delay
action on Mstthews' resolution. They
apprehend that q vote on the resolution
will be recorded sfirmatlvely by more
than two thirds of the members Of each
House, and fear that, if such result is
attained, the President, when the silver
bill reaches hiuI, IN Difference TO such
sentiment, will let the bill become a law If
not by signing it, through failure to re-
turn 1t within the constitutional allotted
ten days. 1t is gratifying to the friends
of the bill to note the genuine interest
they feel ia it. Senator Jones champions
1t with as much zeal as did Bland in the
House, and is ready to meet its enemies
in argument. Allison OF Iowa, Matthews
of Ohio, and even Thurman are far from
lukewsrm in pressing its consideration.
Those who oppose 1t, and the Wall street
gang expected here, have no fears that the
bill be acted upon in time to send it to the
President before the holiday recess, be-
cause its enemies can open the food gates
of debate and consume the time up TO
the adjournment on Saturday next
Hence the efforts of the combined oppo-
sition will be TO defeat vote on
Matthews resolution, which, if accom-
plished, wi prevent an immediate d.
rect expression OF opinion. That is what
is wanted, so that in the long recess the
money power, through John Sherman,
can give the President backbone and
creste diversion, if possible, against the

Texas Rorder Troubles.

WASHINGTON, December l0.-The
Secretary of War was before the com.
mittee on military affairs again to-day.
He said the order TO General Ord 10
pursue Mexican raiders across the Rio
Grsnde on fresh trail, was based priuci-
paily on information given in the report
OF Lieutenant Col Shstter, heretofore
published. Being asked what author
ity the War Department had to make
such orders, he cited the order given
to Col. Robert +. Lee, in 1860, to fol
low the Mexican depredators into Mexi-
co if necessary. And that given by John
G. Calhoun, as Secretary OF War in
1917, to General Gaines, TO pursue the
Seminole Indians into Spanish territory,
which order was vigorously carried out
by General Gaines successor, General
Andrew Jackson.
Captain Claus, of the Twenty-tourth
infantry, stationed at Fort Brown, COD
firms the current statement that several
large ranches in Texas have been sban.
doned in consequence of tho danger to
property and lie from the Mexican
raiders.
A majority of the members Of the
Foreign Affairs Committee, after care
fully sitting voluminous testimony of
army officers and others relating 70 the
Rio Grande question, express the opinion
tbst there is no danger of international
complications Some Of the members of
the committee, however, are of opinion
that war is to be apprehended, and that
it possibly can not be avoided. They say
that they have reason to think that the
Secretary of State would be satisfied if a
war should result from the pending
troubles, on the assumption that war
would tend to strengthen the sdminiStrs-
tion, by turning the attention OF Repub
lcsns IRON Intestinal controversies, and
BY helping to consolidate the South for
