RESPECT TO HOME CIRCLES.

One of the dangers OF home life is
the habit of disrespect-that which
is bred by familiarity. People who
are all beauty and sunshine for a
crowd Of strangers, for whom they
have not the slightest affection, and
all ugliness and gloom for their own,
by whose love they live. The pleas
ant litte prettiness Of dress and per-
sonal adornments which mark the de.
sire to please, are put on purely for
the admiration Of those whose admi-
ration goes for nothing, while house
companions are treated only to the
ragged gowns and threadbare coat,
the tousled hair and stubby beard,
which, if marking the ease add COM
fort, or the "sons facon" Of home,
mark also the Indifference and disre-
spect that do so much damage to the
sweetness and delicacy of daily life.
And what is true of the dress is still
truer of the manners and tempers of
home, in both of which we often find
too, that want of respect which seems
to run side by side with affection in
the custom of familiarity. 1t is a re-
gretable habit under any of its con-
ditions, but never more so than
when it invades the home and en-.
dangers still more that which is al.
ready too much endangered by other
things. Parents and bringsrs up do
not pay enough attention to this in
the young. They allow habits of
disrespect to be formed--rude, rough,
insolent and impatient, and salve
over the sore with stereotyped ex-
cuse. "They mean nothing by it,"
which if they look at it Alright, is
worse than no excuse at all, for if
they really do mean nothing by, and
their disrespect is not what it seems
to be, the result of strong anger or
uncomfortable temper, but is merely
a habit, then it ought to be con-
quered without the loss Of time, be-
ing merely a manner that hurts all
parties alike.

CRYING WOLF.

Every Evening and Commercial now and
then has correspondence purporting to be
written from various parts of the State,
but bearing the internal evidence of being
cooked up al Fifth and Market. There is
strange similarity Of phraseology, the same
malignant moral pus, unvarying mendacity,
and either real or apparent ignorance OF
the political pulse of the State, pervading
them all. Its Milford, Dover, Middletown
correspondents threatens with dire ven
geance any one who will attempt to "court
martiar' (is the cant used by all of them)
Mr.. Bayard. The sole object of such vile
insinuation is to create trouble and ill-feel-
ing in the Democratic party. We have
pretty extenfive acquaintance with the
Democracy, and have yet to hear even
suggestion Of any such thought as thai
indicated In the bogus correspondence
The Democracy believe in and live up te
the Augustinian doctrine-"In essentials
obedience: .inI nInon-eesentials, liberty" Mr.
| Bayard holdsopinions on the silver ques'
| tion at variance with majority OF his con-
stituents; his faith being 'non-es sential, )
or rather not q canon OF the Democratic
creed, he has perfect right to think. act
and vote as he pleases upon the question
If the matter comes up in the State Con
ventIon, it will no doubt be fully an
sarlessly discussed, and financially plan
| may be put IN the Democratic platform
Until then les US have peace. A sunke
rock, a wolfin sleeps clothing, or Juda
who kisses While he hetrays, are all to b
/ dreaded. sp DO not put much faith /

a.>sFrING ON To RUIN.

The Wood Tariff betrays perverse inge"

with a design to 'sstroy the manufacturing

it appears that it is as injuriously assaults
the leading trades of other cities. The
manufacture of india rubber goods has
grown TO be business of great magnlt ude,
and, owing to certain advantages possess 'ed
by European. manufacturers, such as chesp~
er labor and interest on capital than ours.
we are hardly able to compete with them
In such case, to subject the raw material,
which it is ply sically impossible to produce
here, to duty of 20 per cent, can only
have one object, the ruin of home manufac-
ture of all india rubber goods The same
pernicious legislation is aimed at the Iron,
steel, woolen, paper, shipbuilding, morocco,
silk and other trades. In keeping with this
hostile discrimination against American
skilled labor, it is worth observing that the
duty on wines, and like luxuries are all to
be reduced by the new tariff.
This is sad and serious state of things,
and the leaders Of the people will be wofully
wanting in their duty If they fail to arouse
popular sentiment into an earnest war
against this vilainous attempt to enmesh
If our Senators and Representatives were
to come on here and address monster
meeting In favor Of a fair protection for
American labor, they would add largely to
their reputation, and show the workingmen
whose daily bread is menaced, that they are
their friends.

itself felt in Washington and compel the

The Gazette has it that the Bishop said

A MOCK DUEL.

The Eureka Sentinel OF Thursday morning
hints as follows regarding q mock duel recent
ly fought thereabout:
1t is always subject of misfortune when
any one finds that surrounding circumstances
and vindication of what is honorable COM
pels resort to deadly weapons as means of
blotting out some personal stigma. The per-
petration of a hoax upon one of the residents
of Eureka yesterday, readily illustrates the
point in question and indicates the manner of
man, his full purpose i'll giving the challenge,
and upon his insisting that the strictest con
ditions of the "Preston Duello" should be
conformed to, nineteen feet were accurately
measured. The combattants stood back to
back at the center of this line, and at the
command walked from each other to the end,
wheeled and fired. Three deliberate shots
were fired by the challenging party at his OPP
ponent. He felt himself to have been wronged,
aud resolved TO blot out any shame by revenge
upon his adversary At the third shot the
victim fell, pierced through with an imaginary
bullet. The would-be wounded man was
borne from the field aud cared for while an
arrest was being made, by the proper author
tiles, of the slayer. We would prefer to be
shot at by somebody else, and not by the
Missourian who sought the chances of death
rather than suffer personal indignity
