Alas! how often our budding hopes
are blasted, nipped beyond recovery
hy some unexpected frost in summer
time, and We sadly picture to ourselves
what beautiful flowers thoy might have
borne if they had 1ouIished. Oh,
blessed Hope! Well did great writer
call it "Heavens own gift to struggling
mortals; pervading, like some subtle
essence from the skies, all things, both
good and bad: as universal as death
and moro infectious than disease" We
are in a melancholy mood this Tues
day morning, and the bright sun rises
up TO reveal the deep of Heavens blue
IA Tito mock us, and US only. There
is not a single neishbor OF ours on
High street with whom we would not
exchange feelings this moment and pay
him any quantity or quality OF boot
but our dismal feelings are like Ron
inson Crusoe's money-exchs ngeahle
with no one. They are at far beaver
discount than the silver Mexican dol
lars. Alas! alas! And why these
sad feelings2 you ask. Well, gentle
reader, the friend whe promised US
week ago to return to Hunts Station
and catch US a big. fat 'possum, was
"causht on the, jury" AMI the jury Is
hung. aud Judge Barton will not lei
the jury dishand until a decision IS
reached, and-the jury is hung. Well
we congratulate the 'possum upon tue
turn of things. Our misfortune mas
been his glory. So it is in life. Inc
miseries of some make the happiness
Of others. But Christmas is close al
hand, and if some Of cur Subscribers
will send US q fat turkey Or two, 'he'
will cause our heart to heat once more
happily against its prlson bars: Im'
question is-will they do it! VIZ
pause for reply.
p. S.-Since writing the above oo'
heart has been lifted from the dep'h'
Of its despair. All nature seems u
rejoice as IN balmy Spring time, an
visions Of the iuture arc beautiful o.
the mellow tints OF the rainbow, or 'h'
smile Of az infant yes. beautiful as
,naidpn's frat love. A1d this is IN
reason: The jury is unhung, agreed
d,shande,l, and our fritnd will not Tor
se, the 'possum. BIT let not ih's tx
euse any one from sending no q 10
turkey. ,S.AIl.'s md' ihut ends well

BILE from the tenor Of tho debate that
it will be referred. We presume that no
man Of sense, either in or out of Congress,
believes that serious attempt will be made
to dispossess President Hayes. There may
be republicans who would gladly annoy
him and render him uneasy respecting his
title as . means Of subjugating him to party
behests; and there may be democrats
who would be glad to magnify the
so-called ".raud" as On electioneer-
ing topic, but beyond reference to
a committee nothing is likely to be done
on this subject Nine-tenths Of the demo-
Gratis in Congress do not desire that Mr..
Tilden should either be President or the
next candidate of their party for that Office !;
and the republicans will be in no hurry to
stultify their unanimous action OF last win
ter. This is mere bubble on the surface OF
politics which will soon burst.

Satanic science.

We applauded Mr.. Bergh for refusing to
allow himself to be bitten by or inoculated
with the virus from o mad dog on scientific
or any other pretences. We applauded the
earnest Scotchman who came SO manfully
and withal so thriftily to the place where
the pugilist comes in the ring, rs Mr..
Bergh's substitute in the hydrophobic test
which the doctor signing himself "Rabies"
proposed. We are sorry to say that we
cannot applaud the doctor as viewed through
his latest letter. After careful study of
the document we think we discern init
whot may be termed "dead set" upon
Mr. Bergh. Why should "Rabies" almost
audibly chucklo while he talked Of his
object being ito bring this matter
(hydrophobia) home to him (Mr. Bergh),
and il he should get hydrophobin
to get his recantation before the disease
terminated his sublunary existence2" The
picture Of the cold-blocded doctor coming
grinning to the bedside of o hydrophobic
Mr.. Bergh in the lucid intervals OF the
latter's spasms and saying, "Well, do you
believe in hydrophobia now?" has dia-
bolical malignity about II. It seems like
taking pleasure in human suffering--the
suffering, too, Of one whose heart bleeds
every time he thinks of Belt line team of
horses Juggling their heavy load. We be-
lieve that the doctor would dissect Mr..
Bergh with pleasure. II was bad enough
to draw this horrible picture, but'to rein
force il with stories about men who took
plaques and other diseases for tho
good of science and who died
describing the symptoms OF the
was piling pelion of turbulence upon an
Ossa Of deviltry. This was clearly added
as bait to ensnare Mr.. Bergh into per-
hitting a hypoder1nic injection Of mad
dogs saliva to be administered him. The
French poet tells us that though there IRE
many night blooming flowers there is only
one moon. So with tho doctors and Mr..
Bergh. There are many and to spare of
the doctors-they are ground out in thou
sands yearly, Heaven help usl-but the
years roll by and we have only one benign
Mr.. Bergh. With this fact before him 1--WE
suppose he knows it as well as we do) the
doctor, speaking OF his pestilential martyrs,
asks: us Mr.. Bergh better than these 2"
We answer unhositatingly that he is.
Nor can we extend any sympathy to the
doctors treatment of the Scotchman who
was willing to be inoculated for two thou
sand dollars down. The doctors insistence
on the original terms of his offer would be
oil very we'll If it was prudent or possible
to make Mr.. Bergh the victim. Mr.. Bergh
does not want the money, and his society is
not badly of, but the Scotchman does want
it ii he can get it and If he gets IL will keep
it. The doctor thinks he ought to get his
money back If the Scotchman should die OF
hydrophobia. We do not agree with him.
