A DevOut Life.

Devout life has untold power.
Like the forces OF nature. it is often
hidden or obscure, but it holds and
shakes the world. Men may refuse
to hear your preaching; they are not
able to evade the argument OF a
blameless and holy life. The aroma
of it fills all the atmosphere; its doc
trines distill like the gentle dew, or
like the small rain or the mOwn
grass, its lines go through the earth.
its word to the end of the world;
there is no speech or language where
its voice is not heard. Your re-
ligi0n, to be of any worth, must be
such a life. Profession is well, but
it is only the gateway TO the life;
only the sign OF the inward sub,
stance. The gospel was not pro
claimed to give you n creed, but TO
render possible tO you devout life.
You viii he Il power among men, not
in proportion to your knowledge, or

portion TO the sanctity and fulluess
of your religious life.-Zion's Her.

The Anderson Case.
IN. 0. Democrat March 2l !

The question as to the probability
of the Attorney General filing mo-
tion for reheariug in the Anderson
case before the Supreme Court may
be considered settled. for we have
information that such is his fixed
purpose. Attorney General Ogden
has been busiiy engaged for mum
Der of days past in preparing care
full and exhaustive brief, we learn,
which, with his motion, will be sub
mitted to-day or tomorrow. From
what could be gathered on the out
side, the response of the Attorney
General to the first ground taken by
the court in setting aside the YER
diet of the jury. to wit: that the
paper used was not public record,
will be supported by numerous au-
thorities, aud particularly by one
case decided by Chief Justice Par
ker, of the Massachusetts Supreme
Court. in case entirely analogous.
A private paper in itself is not a
public record, but may become so in
many ways. An ordinary letter in
friendship, if offered in evidence.
becomes from that time, if admitted,
public document. and its altera-
ton would make II party, the law
yers say, amenable to the law. The
question as to whether document
is of public character is mixed
question of law and fact. The law
defines what Constitutes such Il re-
cord, and it is left to the jury, as a
question of fact, to determine wheth-
eli the questioned document an
swers the legal description given.
If the judge should err in defining
what the law says is public record,
the Supreme Court have right to
override such a charge from the indge
OF the lower court, but if the charge
of the Judge be correct, the appellate
court cannot inquire into the ques-
ton of fact left to the jury, as their
verdict settles it.
On the second point made by the
Supreme Court, that it was not
charged that the uttering was alleg-
ed tn have been committed as pnb-
lie officer, the argument against it
is still more conclusive. The stat
ute reads. "whoever shall falsely
and fraudulently utter" not as "a
pablo officer, but "whoever." If
our infOl nation be correct, this point
against the decision is irrefragihle.
Any paper falsely and fraudulently
uttered to the damage of another is
an utterance within the meaning of
the statute, aud four bank presidents
as individuals could commit this act
under the statute as completely in
dividually, and in their official ca
pacity. The authorities. we learn,
are numerous on this subject. The
motion will doubtless cover these
points fully.

Mary'S Little Lamb.

The veritable ''Mary (who) had a
little lamb whose fleece was white
as snow" visited the Old South spin
ming bee at Boston a few evenings
ago, and told the ladies present
the story of the lamb. When she
was nine years old and was living
on farm, one morning she went i'll
to the barn. where she found two lit
tie lambs, one of them nearly dead.
So she took it into the house and sat
up all highs nursing il with catnip
tea. The next morning the lamb
could stand on its feet, and grew
stronger every day. Owing to her
loving care the Lamb became so at
tached to Mary THAT it followed her
about, and one day to school, where
she hid it under her desk, SO that
none of the children knew it was in
school until Mary was called up to
recite. Then the lamb came ont
from its hiding place, and made the
children laugh and shout, so that
the teacher was obliged tn turn 1t
out. The poem was written by IA
friend of Mary's (the venerable Mrs.
Sarah Joseph Hale, who has just re-
tired from the tditorship of Godey's
Lady Book soon after the lambs
visit to the school-room. Mary was
married many years since, and lives
near Boston. she says she viii
come again to the spinning bee some
Afternoon. She took in some of the
first fleece of her little lamb, and il
is now for sale at tue spinning
bee.

out Of employment in this land"

His opinion was only too well found
ed for Congress did adjourn without
any effort to do "anything for the re-
lief of the country" and without st
tempting to carry out one of the many
promises made TO the working classes.
Yet in the Democratic Convention in
Columbus, a few weeks ago, one OF
their first acts was to extend their
"wsrmest sympathy to the labOring
classes" in the following resolution:
RESOLVED, That the interests cf the
industrial, wealth producing classes is
of paramount interest to the people OF
the United States. Those whose labor
and enterprise produce wealth should
be secure in its enjoyment. Our
warmest sympathy is extended to the
laboring classes who have been thrown
out of employment by the ruinous
financial policy and unjust legislation
of the Republican party, and we pledge
the Democratic party to reversal of
this policy and to d restoration of all
the rights they are entitled to, upon its
ascendancy to power.
How does this resolution compare
with the practices of the men who
adopted it? Have they ever shown
this sympathy" otherwise than in
words? Never. Will the working
men of Ohio trust them agaih? Not if
they know their intereSts.-Cleveland

THE money circulating medium il
as great now when times are hard as
before the panic of 1873, when they
were good. Then money was said to
be plenty, now it is said to be scarce.
1t appears to be scarcer now because
exchanges are less frequent or numer-
Gus. II but one exchange be made
where two had been before, money
will appear TO be only half as abun-
dsnt, though the quantity remain the
same. Therefore the way to make
money plenty-or to appear so-is to
increase the number and value of ex-
changes or business transactions, and
not to increase the actual quantity of
money.
All will admit that the times are
hard because there has been a great
falling off in the consumption and use
Of nearly all articles produced by la
Dor to supply the wants of man-there-
by making the employment of large
numbers become unnecessary in pro-
tduction, and throwing them out Of
employment, and, as a consequence,
depriving them of the means to con-
tinue to be purchasers and consumers.
The immediate occasion for this
state of things, was the panic-a scare
which caused q sudden retrenching
of expenditures and lessening of de-
mand to the extent of such retrench-
ment. Hence, every one who SO cur
tailed his wants and expenditures con-
tributed to the falling off of business,
and is to blame himself, (if blame there
be for economizing), and not his rep
resentative in Congress, who voted
against more greenbacks. Where eX-
travagance and adventure in trading
has reached an extreme, beyond the
actual necessities of mankind, and
when almost every kind of business is
upon strain, nothing is more natural
than that there should come an end to
such excess-a collapse-and that too,
from slight cause;-an avalanche has
been known to be precipitated by the
tread of a mountain goat. Such ex-
treme, no matter how brought about,
will always have its collapse, just as
all things will give way on too great
tension or imitation.
The question, then, is-if the money
we now have answered when business
was more active and times were good,
and there was enough of it, why do
men want more issued when business
is less, and, therefore, less money will
answer; and when, indeed, the in
creased purchasing power of money
has really added to its quantity?

IF the Republicans of Ohio mean to
try and carry the State they must cease
their family troubles. To fair Dem
ocrat the decentralization of the Radi-
cal machine is really distressing
Cincinnati Enquirer.
This looks like an attempt to divert
attention from the difficulties besetting
the Democracy. The Republican ma.
chine is doing very we'll, thank you;
but there seems to bea difficulty about
getting the Democratic apparatus in
running order. 1t hasn't been geared
right. The State Convention set it up
on the fraud and greenback plans
two somewhat debilitated political en-
gines-and the party is at stand-still.
The Convention should have built its
platform on the O'Connor Legislature,
and then the party would have gone
with whirl-to the devil. 1t is elect
ed for that destination, in any event,
but in its present shape its flight is
turgid and uninteresting.-O. S. Jour

THE contest for the Democratic Con

THE contest for the Democratic Con
gressional nomination in the Eighth
Virginia district has brimmed over
into the Washington newspapers. The
Convention will be held in Alexandris
late in August, but the preliminary
defeat of Mr.. HuntOn, who now bOlds
the seat and wants 1t again, in meet
ing on Saturday has perturbed him and
his friends, and they are working Wig
orously to make up the lost ground
Mr.. Hunton has been one of the cham
pion investigators in Congress, and il
is significant that the weapon which
the opposition is most effectively using
against him is that he is altogether
too much given to that hole-in corner
work. If he Is beaten he can sympa'
thize with the Investigating Glover
whose Missouri constituents seem dis
posed to nominate him to stay at home
after March 4th.
