Another postal to Mr. Leggat inquired
after "your wife and Mr.. Wiswal's mis-
tress." Another, addressed to 1.-THE char
table Alvah Wiswall," demanded pair of
gloves, but good ones, and mot made of
moth-eaten cloth out OF Lcggat's store"
Another tells Mr.. Wiswall "Your mis-
tress, whose favorlte pastime is destroying
your children, now seems to wish to destroy

Some of the receipts which Mrs. Wiswall
sent for money received were also pro-
duced. Comments were attached to these.
One said "Send up some of your strum-
pets receipts that we may compare them.
She has done you all the harm she can, as
two physicians can testify" A letter from
feathers from a hat which Mr.. Wiswall had
sent to her. The letter said "Papa's pres

FROM"
Mr.. Wiswall said further In examination
that his wife was extravagant, and that
that was the sole cause of his pecuniary
endorsements. She spent $50 for shoes
In a single month, and 5000 for gloves and
handkerchiefs in six months. She also had
mania for hiring hacks, Notwithstanding
she had carriage of her own. He stated
also that he had not minated to DR.. Dix
in any shape that he would resign his posi-
ton in Trinity church upon receipt of
$4,000. Also that he had sent in a request
for investigation some time previous to the
vestry meeting, and the lengthy cores
pondence between himself and DR.. Dix,
covering these points, was produced in evil

Probabilities.

Do not dictate to an editor how to
run his paper; should YOU do so,
however, the probability Is YOU will
DE told to attend to Your Own bust
ness.
Read the advertisements in your
paper, and the probability is yon'll
find the place you want in order to
purchase something that you have
long been in need of.
To ask an editor to insert puff
in his paper without pay, is like a
man asking another to work for him
for nothing, and the probability is
you will get an indignant "No" to
yoar appeal. tf..t
Never borrow newspapers from
your neighbOrs. If you are in the
habit of doing so, break right of, for
If you still continue to do so, the
probability is, that your last hours
of life will be full of remorse, feal
and death.

delinquent subscriber; should you
do SO and die, the probability is that
the proprietor will inform your
friends OF your shortcomings.

Prohibition and Sunday laws
seems the order in several of the
southern parishes of our State. OF
tfis, our opinion has never changed
from boyliond. No human law can
ever make mankind good-if they
will not observe the Sabbath, it is
because public sentimeDtisd ebauch-
ed, and no ordinance can correct
such I'M evil rs that. As for liquor
drinking, it is in the same boat. If
the good moral people of Il commu-
nifty VIII not frown down tipping,
why prohibition laws are useless.
Men should not forget that laws
cannot be enforced in any commune
ty if that community resist them,
and in any community requiring a
Sunday or a prohibition law they
would be evaded or resisted. The
