The Common Sense Views of a
Wife.

Juno" in the New York, Graphic.i
have for many years been deep
" interested in the question of
marriage in all its different phases.
Possibly, like many others, ! have
thought much more than ] have
spoken. have been five years a
wife. As wife l suppose l have
endured an average share of wife's
trials and dissppointments. I'm
questionably there is in marriage
certain disappointment 10 nine
wives out of ten, possibly to 999
out of the 1000. Because lovers
are not husbands, nor husbands
lovers. Nor do l believe it posi-
BILE for the husband to remain the
lover. 1t is not so much the hus-
hands fault as is charged by most
wives. 1t is in my estimation but
natural result. The lover has
novelty and scarcity to spur him
on. The scarcity 1 refer to is that
of his adored's presence. When it
is his privilege TO see her at any
hour of the day without the formal
ity of a visit, that presence must
lose a certain charm. The first
shad and strawberries in market
ere rated at high figure. The ap-
petite is whetted for them by a
long fast, but when they become
very plentiful they lose value.
This same principle extends to ev-
cry department and working of hu
man nature. 1t is of no use to shut
our eyes to this. Better open them
wide, acknowledge the corn and
see if some way cannot be devised
to improve matters. 1t is a mis-
take to suppose that the husbands
comparative indifference implies
the actual lack of the husbands
love. Only the vigilance and anxi-
ETY. of love is toned down by
sense Of perfect security and pos
session. The man may never ac-
knowledge this even to himself,
but he feels it all the same, and
his acts are based on such feeling.
Make the man pay some price for
the wife's presence, and there
would be a change. The fruit
which hangs over every wall is not
deemed worth the plucking. Wives
have themselves much to blame for
the husbands indifference. They
hold themselves too cheap; and l
may say also too exclusive. If
these are conundrums, aggrieved
wives can spend an hour or two
profitably in studying them.

In the cell of a prison, on the
stone wall. was recently found pic
ture, drawn by miserable man who
went from that spot to be hung. 1t
was that of a scafiold with five steps
leading to it. Each of these steps
was named. The first was, "Diso
bedience 10 Parents;" the second,
sabbath -breaking;" the third
Gambling and drunkenness;" the
fourth, Murder" the fifth was
called, "The Fatal Platform" and
Just above ii was the scaffold where

THE ADVANCE or UNBE-
LIEF.
The Religion of To-Day as Con-
trasted with the Religion of
Fifty Years Ago.
Chicago Times.

Chicago Times.
The very emphatic declaration by
DR. Van Dyke of his belief that mo
infant dying in infancy, baptized or
unbaptized, Christian or heatlen,"
but that "they are all saved" was
significant manifestation of the
growth of unbelief in the accepted
religious dogmas of previous age.
The further declaration of the same
eminent doctor of divinity, that the
whole Presbyterian Church share
his unbelief in the Calvanistic doc
trine of infant damnation, and the
applause with which that declara-
tion was received by the general
assembly, showing its hearty assent
there to was further and still more
remarkable manifestation of the
growth of unbelief in that large and
respectable body of so-called unbe-
levers.
Two hundred years ago-nay. less
than one hundred years agO-the
man who should have stood up in a
Presbyterian General Assembly and
proclaimed his rejection of one of
the plainest dogmas of the West
minister confession, would have been
turned out of the ecclesia Loaded
with the anathemas of the faithful.
Less than three hundred years ago,
the minister of God who should
have thus repudiated al essential
tenet of the theology of Geneva
would have been candidate for
martyrdom, and had DR.. Van Dyke
declared his heretical belief in the
salvation of juvenile pagans in the
hearing of John Calvin, that servant
of the Lord would have roasted
him alive as promptly as he did
Servetus, Zwingllus, and six or sew
en- other recalcitrant heresiarchs.
Verify, the progress of unbelief has
been considerable since Calvin's
time, and since John Knox's time,
too.
But these are only striking facts
selected from among hundreds of
similar facts, all more or less nota-
BILE indications of the growth in the
Presbyterian body of the spirit of
unbelief

ernmenG.

Washington Special TO Chicago Times.
The suit to recover the Airing
ton estate, brought by Gen. G. w.
C. Lee, eldest son of Robert r Lee,
will be tried at the present term Of
the Alexandria circuit court. Fol-
lowing is a brief outline OF the
method whereby the United States
acquired it's present title TO the es-
tate: In September, 1863, three
tax commissioners for the insurrec-
tionary district oe Virginia fixed
the sum of S2O7 as the amount Of
tax due and payable TO the United
states upon the Arlington estate,
which was valued on the land-books
of Virginia for the year 1860 at
S34, 100 For non-payment of this
tax the estate became forfeited TO
the United States, and the com
missioners advertised il for SALE
The sale took place on the llth Of
January, 1854, when no person bid
ding an amount equal 10 tho taxes
then accrued, and the estate having
been selected under direction Of the
Government and in pursuance Of
President Lincoln's proclamation OF
Jan. 6, 1864, for Government use for
war, military, charitable and educa.
tional purposes the commissioners
bid it in for the sum OF S2G,SO0.

will, bequeathed Arlington 10 Gen.

and after her death all her property

"Look here, men, as see things, ii
you don't make more allowance for

1t was a school-boy's notion. What
did he know about civil engineering?
He was dreaming. But. only one
year later, in the heart of an unusu-
ally cold winter, the boosted struc-
ture did come down, In utter ruin,
and when it fell it proved that the
boys notion was theory; that his
dreaming was sound though.
Iron is treacherous stuffat the best.
1t is subject to all kinds of Influences
especially climatic and electric, and
should never he trusted implicitly.
1t Is dangerous to suspend an iron
bridge from bank TO bank, suppor-
ted only by the ends, under any con-
ditions, and ii is a question whether
1t be not dangerous to construct
bridge entirely of iron at all. Much
stone should be used, and no expense
should be spared in abutments both
at the ends and beneath the central
portions of bridges. Calculations
should also be carefully made for the
effects of heat and cold.

Pinchback.
[ottnmwa Courier

totihiuaA 1SAliti.i
p. S. B. Pinchback has claimed to
be Republican Of the negro race,
although he is only about one
eighth negro aud tho other seven
eighths white black-leg blood.
He has been hanging around the
Senate Chamber of the United States
Senate for three or four years, claim
ing seat in that body from Louisia-
ma, but the Republican majority OF
the Senate has steadfastly refused to
admit him, on account Of his notori-
ously disreputabIe character and the
fraudulent and questionable nature
of his credentials. Moreover mt the
last session of Congress the Senate
refused to allow his claim for expen-
SEES incurred in contesting the seat,
amounting to some twenty thousand
dollars. Since then, "Pinch" has
had blood in his eye, and finally
when the present Legislature of Lou
isiana the other day elected kellogg
to the Senate instead of Pinchback,
it was the last feather which broke
his back. With great show of vir-
tuous Indignation he went into the
bogus Nichols Legislature recently
and renounced his allegiance to the
Republicans and gave in his adher-
ence to the Democrats In n
buncombe speech. The extent OF
his influence may be inferred from
the fact that he was only able to car
ny three members with him.
We can prove by the files of every
Democratic paper published in this
country from the Belize to the Col
den Gate, for the past five years,
that Pinchback Is a thief, gambler,
pimp, scoundrel and dead-beat ne
gro, but now that he has gone over
to then you may look out to hear
from them occasional yawps about
