In PURSUIT OF KNowLEDGE.-"W What is
cold deck and "bob tail fush?" a
young lady, the light of a South Hill
home, asked the other evening, looking
up from the paper she was reading.
"Why," said her elder brother, "a cold
dec" and it was worth fifteen cents for
a student of human nature to note how
suddenly he checked himself, and what
a variety of conflicting emotions played
over his face as he bent over his book,
and pretended not to perceive the sharp
glances of suspicious inquiry which his
father shot at him over his spectacles
while the silence was SO profound and
awful that the others looked up and ga
zed around him in dumb amazement.

modest, as pride hurts the selflove of ev-

vengeance eternizes hatred. Do good to
him who Injuries thee, that thou mayest
show thyself greater than he, and also

HOW NEW YORK REPUBLICANS
VIEW THE BETRA YAL or PACK
ARD. .-

1t is an undisputed fact that Packard
received more votes than Hayes in Lou
isiana, yet Packard is rejected from the
Office Of Governor, while Hayes holds
the Presidency by being awarded the
electoral vote, 1t is impossible, there
fore, not to ask the question, "Is Hayes's
title any better than Packard's2" And
Republicans are perplexed Low to an
swer. The Rochester Democrat and
Chronicle, the leading Republican organ
in western New York, says:
"We are in receipt of numerous letters
from Republicans in reference to the
Southern policy of The President and are
frank to say that neither in conversation
nor correspondence have we found in
this section of the State any universal
Commendation of that policy. 1t is ac-
quiesced in. 1t is accepted as an expert
ment. 1t is taken on trial. 1t is receiv-
ed with sorrow, with tremulous hope at
the best. Often it is bitterly denounced,
being deemed a surrender Of principle

\ DAMNING DEED.

A Young man UuirAges httIe UirI
Twelve Wears NJ age ne ~ Arrested
Hut succeeds Ia naEing nis Escape
one ot the most ntrocipus and damn.
ing deeds that we have been CALLED ON
To record, took place last saturday,
about ten miles from this city, on
Mountain creek. \ young glrl about
twelve years Of age lives with an old
man named Cameron, who IN Rtcla,
tive of hers and whom sho suppOscs 70
be- her grandfather The family were
absent from the house and the girl
WA alone, whtnR young man who h
known IN the neighborhood, and
whose name, we are informed, Is
George Preston, came 10 the house and
finding the child alone, dragged her
into big room and throwing her on
u bed, accomplished His fell purpose,
Whenever the child attempted 10 cry
out he placed his hand over her month.
Immediately afterwards he mounted
his horse and rode oil. The child LEFT
the house and ran Ia II camp near by
and told her story To u woman that
was there, who on examination found
her story to he, alaa, too true lntorN
nation was sent 10 town, aud the
child WAS taken before the grand jury
and made statement OF the case.
Reing pressed for time, the grand jury
issued nm attachment for the young
man, and Sheriff Moon, Deputy Sher.
rill Jones, and constable named
Rice started for the place on Monday
night, and found the young man at
old man CnmerOn's sons place.
They arrested him and determined To
remain gll night and bring him back
TO the city. This Ia the story our re-
porter heard, only with further details
of such u shocking nature, that we
deem 1t unfit for publication. Our
lNl'iANl N'nlANN wv ouNllll y hlllNN
to verify the report, and learned the
following facts from the officials. After
arresting him, each one of the three
officers took turn at watching the
prisoner Near morning, when Con.
stable rice was on watch, aud Sheriff
Moon and Mr.. Jones were lying down,
Rice took Preston out into the lot, for
the ostensible purpose OF feeding the
horses before coming to the town,
While In the lot, Preston made his ~.
cape from Rice, How he did IL we
cannot learn, but he did, and the Of
licers returned without their prisoner.
This il the substance OF the story M we
gather 1t from the different officials.
THE HERALD sincerely hopes that
Preston will be captured, and made to
answer for the charge. No blame can
possibly attach to Sheriff Mon and
his deputy, as they had done their part,
aud had confidence in Rice's ability to
guard him.

A Suggestion 10 Fire Departments.

Decorating bombs, such as are em-
ployed to draw political gatherings,
would, II used when required by fire
departments. prevent my more pe0-
pie being burned or smothered when
asleep for mere lack of waking, IN
they were In the Southern hotel, 81.
Louis, and in the Fifth Avenue hotel,
New York, and have been In innnmer-
able tenementNhouse fires at night,
The means are very simple and
eilicacious. The bombs and mortars
weigh only n few pounds, and
could tie attached to every engine
without expense or inconvenience,
and wherever the iiremen think there
IL danger of people being burned
asleep, they could wake them In an
instant with these bombs, which can
he heard for miles.
