EDITOR GAZETTE.
Dedr 'str'-I see in your paper Of the
l5tn INST, short communications from
townsend, iron which place originat a
great nany equally as senseless) stating
that one OF Wilmington's Murphy proses
lytes had cut his (Murphy's) acauaint-
ance, while at Townsend Specializing in
peaches. Now, MIR. Editor, the opinion.
! bslieve. of the best thinking part Of
the community is. that d man who falls
from grace is more to be pitied than
blamed; 80, in this case-and any man
who Is possessed of the right kind of
heart, instead of publishing persons
weakness to the world, wonld try TO get
MIN again 10 the course of sobriety and
temperance. -
To say the least of l., it is rather small
Tor any man who prides himself on his
strength and resolution, 70 lead on his
weak brother to drink. Under any cir
cumstances it is still smaller to do 80
and then attempt to make game of him.
l think the writer of said article must
be like the sand dams of which he
speaks, or we would find him on the side
OF temperance and rig At, instead of try>
ing to throw cold water on the good
cause. In regard to the 48 signers the
first night and the AZ the second, of
which he speaks being women and chill
dren, he is mistaken, as very many of
them were men who seem to be trying
to improve their condition, (Which they
cannot do by drinking rum) and ought
not to be discouraged by any whiskey
drinking gas house.
But, had the signers been all wemen
and children; 80 much the more shame
on the drinking men, that they should

sex and by their own offspring. Besides,
in the name of common sense, if the
women and children do not sign the tenn.
perance pledge, who ought TO? Who let
me ask, suffers from the case of intem-
perance more than theyp The man whu
would go home to his good wife to day
drunk, ask him would he have done this
dirty thing the day before he married
her-he will answer no, no, could not
have been hired to do so-then why do
| SO now when he has sworn to love anG
cherish her? For this reason, if no 9TH
er, women have inst reason for signing
the pledge. Then 60 on good womer
with your noble efforts to fignt the hid.
| ious monster, and the man who discour-
ages you, IS not worthy of your love. In
conclusion, will say it is to be hoped
the article signed L. S. will have the eff
| tecu Vi opehinR Iue eyes Ot all VINO nave
broken through and cause the II to re-
new their acquaintance with the tenn
perance cause, and to cut the acquaint'
ance of any man who is so quick to shoS
up their shor ccmings to the world. You

About three weeks ago an Indian known
as Sam lost his squaw Mary, through
Establishments of an Indian named Jim,
with whom she eloped, taking some of
his household goods. The. loss of these
goods added muchto the wrath of Sam,
and he raised such conmotion among
the Piute braves that theydetermined to

there, safe from Caucasian instrusion,

after tying her firmly in the middle Of it,
set it on fire. Then. they began a war

which all Joined, Sam being very fierce

From Our Regular Correspondent. 1 r7l
r far on NEW CASTLE, Sept. IL, lf
The Ne,o Castle Tunes made its appear
ance ON s .turday, presenting a very neat
aud tasty sheet. It's locals were few owing
to the f,ct that the Office was not opened
until the middle Of the week. We under
stand that this dep ,rtment will be con-
ductedby Mr. r. L. Duffy, late correspond
ent of The Morning Herald. He is an old
resident and may be well up in the true In
wardness of affairs about town. Should
this prove tue we may look for some spicy
and entertaining locals.
James DAVIS, a wandering umbrella men,
del found himself in our city Saturday eve
Mug, and undertook to bulldozs one OF QUE
'storekeepers into giving him job. He
walked in, threw down his kit and gave
him to understand that he would not leave
unless he was given something to do. Off
Ger O'Neirs attention was called tothe mat
ter aud James was given lodging at the
jail, where l26 are already on the register.
The striking mania has reached here
and developed itself in an entirely new
phase. Our milkmen gave notice yes
tsrday that they would not hereafter
serve milk on Sundays, We think this
is getting down to fine points, and shows
there is at least few (very) who have
conscientious scruples Of such nicely as
70 be hardly able to discern how far
their duty to themselves and their fell
bowman should allow them to go on the
Sabbath. Here is an opportunity for q
person to begin good milk route, for
he who cannoG furnish it on Sunday
cannot expect to have the trade of the
other six days.
Religious services of very interesting
character We're held in the Jail yesterday
afterno IN. We heard tell of the wond-
erous works of the Y. M. c. A., here is 9
