Down at Oskaloosa, they have a curiosi-
ty in the shape of a fossil relic of the Dark
) ges; and what il more wonderful, this
fossil edits newspaper called the I.depen-
dn. He has recently given expression to
the atrocious sentiment that the yellow fe-
v.r plague in the South has been sent by
God upon that people as a visitation for
their deeds of blood. He does not try to
explain why God has thus visited a com
paraiively narrow strip of country, while
Texas, South Carolina, and other sections,
that have been guilty Of fully as bloody
deeds, are exempt. Neither does he ven-
ture TO explain why it is that the class who
were murdered are suffering as terribly
from this dispensation of Providence a. the
class who murdered them. The class of
heathens represented by the aforesaid fos-
sill, have a most infamous opinion
of God. They think he caused the
murder of Lincoln-for what purpose, they
have never yet revealed. They believe that
if person kills frog, God will cause his
cows to give bloody milk; that if q gang Of
outlaws in . community commit Outrages,
God will send the yellow fever upon the
whole State, killing the guilty and innocent
alike: that If man goes fishing on Sum-
day, God will drown the children Of his
descendants, hundred years or 90 after
wards; and much other stuff equally ss
disgusting.
There are people, who may be ignoram-
uses, to be sure, but who, nevertheless, hold
that God has established certain laws which.
if broken, bring their own sure punishment,
but that the punishment can be Traced di-
r,ctly a. the result Of the violation of those
laws. Ii men abuse their health and cor
rupt their blood, the effects will be entailed
upon their progeny. Ii they neglect the
laws of health and cleanliness, and permit
the air to be poisoned by filth, sickness
mu-t ensue. Some regions are exposed to
malaria, which under certain conditions,
is more prevalent at some seasons that At
Others; and If people go to thoee
regions to dwell, without taking
means to destroy or counteract the malaria
they will suffer from pestilence, such a
yellow fever and cholera. These are the
results of apparent causes, govern
ed by the laws nf an intelligent and reason
able God. But if any man can e.r. ain
why shooting . niger in New Orleans can
cause the yellow fever in Memphis, or how
q man. swearing can bring lightning down
TO strike him, or how . merchant selling
BY false weights, can cause his grandson to
have epileptic fit, We have never yet seen
the Thing laid down in print. But We be-
lieve these fossils do not try to explain it.
They are satirfed in the belief that ''God
works in a mysterious way"
We have noticed one peculiarly In these
iossils " no have such terrific ideas of the
Of God. They never seem to
have the siighiest fear that God will visit
puni-hmen; upon them for hypocrisy, or
Ior misrepresenting and lying about their
neighburs

WoOlen Manufactures,

The Paris Exposition made assured the
fact that at present England has to dread
opposition in wooden fabrics rather from
France than from the United States. The
manufacture of wool has long been a
staple industry in England, and this has
been indicated since the time of Elizabeth
by placing in the House of Lords WOOL
sack (which is a large square bag of wool,
without either back or arms) as the seat
of the Chancellor, a. a memento Of stat
ute, which was passed sgainst the expOr
tatiOn of wool, that commodity being then
the main source OF the national wealth OF
England.

tunately, the question is not for the future,
but for the present, for Mr.. Thurman has
Just made his bid for The Presidency upon
It. Equally unfortunately, Mr.. Sherman,
while declaring thar It's consideration would
hamper resumption, does consider it far
enough to put himself, with very little re-
serve, apparently on the same side a. Mr.
Thurman Now, the gist of Mr.. Thur
mans proposed policy is the monstrous no.
ton that Congress can authorize the issue
OF legal lenders to replace bank -nots. This
carries with it the assertion of the right Of
Congress to authorize the Issue Of legal
tenders at discretion, which is one Of the
most dangerous and ndrevolurionsry doctrines
in the tniied States. That even BY impli-
cation the Secretary of the Treasury should
give the weight of his authority to this

We were shown by Deputy Sheriff Bur-
lingame key, made from piece of bone,
BY J. B. True, now in Jail on charge of
numbering the Rev. Mr.. Woolpert.
The bone was part Of a beef rib which
had formed portion Of True's dinner a
few days previously. He had borrowed
Burly's knife to trim his toe nails, and at
once went to work on his way to liberty.
1t is q most ingenious imitation Of the
key to his cell door, hut they esn't come
any of their little games on Sheriff Clarke
or his Deputy. When they get a man they
keep him sure.

We are reliably informed that if the citi-
zens OF Onaga and vicinity will contribute
800, the Presbyterians will erect church
here that will cost $1,000. We think that
amount can and will be subscribed, when
the proper time comes. Nothing would add
80 much to our town as churches.
