ACciDESTs.-On last Sunday morning
George Withers, an eight year old son
Of Mr.. T.. Withcrs, was fooling with
some other small children. step-sons OF
Mr.. Buchart, named Hoffman, in q room
Of the second story of their joint resi-
dence, when one OF the Hoffman boys
shot him with rifle gun bored out for
shot, the charge entering the breast,
just above the lower edge OF the breast
bone, and the shot being enclosed in
cotton wrapping, they all went in to-
gether, and striking rib glanced around
TO the side, making severe but not
very dangerous wound. Dr. Wertz ex-
tracted about 20 Of the shot. and the
wrapping. The gun was so close that
the shirt was powder-bnrnt and bis shirt
set on fire. II il the greatest wonder
the wound was not fatal, and the accid ent
j. another demonstration Of the folly OF
letting little boys have firearms.
On Monday little George Binkley
another nine year old boy, put powder
ID bottle, aud touched il of blowing his
hand full OF glass and powder, making q
severe wound, which will scar his hand
for life. There Is law against selling
boys pistols, and 1t ought to include
powder.

Tho Conservative South,

The Vleksburg Herald says that
che North will have u acknowledge
alicra while, however reluctant the
acknowledgment may be, that the
South Is tho conservative party Of tho
country, Tho conservative spirit has
never left the South, ParadoSical as
the assertion may seem, II IL never
thclcss true, that she went into rebel
lion on constitutional principles, She
fought for State nights aud got whip
ped. lIn bitter experience IN 1t has
made her Iickler for pence, and the
once fiery Southern people have gone
10 the other extreme Of submission,
War, for the South vas ruin and
devastation Tor the North, II was Il
season OF unusual prosperity, The
laboring masses Of tho North, having
Jared better than before, during u
time of turmoil aud strife, and finding
themselves suffering and starving IN
time OF peace, naturally long for war
again. Hence, we see an uneasy and
unsettled condition Of affairs in the
North, Society is honcycomed with
ismS, whose principles impcril the
Constitution. On the contrary in the
South thcre is an absolute reign Of
peace founded on q universal public
sentiment in favor Of law and order.
The spirit of conservatism, in the true
sense OF the term, is paramount. The
South Is sick of agitation and dis
trubancc,and view with regret and dis
gust the mobocracy OF tho North.
And should tho breaa.or. bloody riot
of that section result in a serious con-
nict with the authorities, the govern
mcntwillfnd its staunchcSt supporter,
and warmcst sympathizer in the much
abused and reviled South" This is
the inevitable consequence OF the
defeat of the South, 1.-THE North
was logical and just, it would see that
this must be the case, and would not
indulge the spirit of furious hate which
has done so much to retard business
prosperity and prevent the complete
reconciliation of the country.

Age of the Idea of Hell.

In the first place 1t is necessary to
rise above that narrowncss Of view
which regards the doctrine Of hell as
especially Christian doctrine, or as
the monopoly of any particular relig-
ion. On the contrary, it is as ancient
and universal as the systems Of rclig-
ious taith that have overspread the
world. The Oldest religions of which
we have any neutrality-suspicious.,
Egyptian, and the various Oriental
systems of wership--all affirm the
doctrine OF a future life, accompanying
hells for the torture OF condemned
souls. We certainly cannot assume
that all there systems are true, and of
divine origin; but if not, then the
question forces itself upon ne, how
they came by this belief.
The old, historic religious systems
involved advanced and complicated
creeds and rituals, and if they were
not real divine revelations.in this elab-
GRATED shape, we are compelled to re-
gard them as having had a natural de-
velopment out of lower and cruder
forms of superstition. To explain
these rcliglons-as to explain the
earliest political institutions we must
go behind them. There is prehis-
toric, documentary theology OF the
primitive man, the quality Of which
has 10 be deduced from his low, intan.
tine condition OF mind, interpreted by
that we observe among the inferior
types of mankind at the present time.

The following story is told Of
Speaker Randall's grandfather. a lead

clear.headed if he had fee before
hand. A stranger came to consult
HIM about a will and forgot the usual
fee. The case involved a great deal
of property. The client began "My
father died and made a will" He
then stated the case, consuming an
hour in doing so. Do you understand
the matter, Mr.. Randall 2 ''No, /
do not" The client left in disgust.
He tod his trouble to friend, who
advised him to secure Mr. Randall.
"Stupid old dolt," said the man, che
don't know anything" "What re-
tainer did you give him: . said the
friend. "Oh, I forgot that" "Go

Home, Sweet Home"

How few OF our farmers comprc-
bend the pleasure OF n sweet home.
Trading, selling and rowing are Amer.
lean characteristics. But few buy
with the determination OF improving
and taking the advantage of the adj
Nance in price, then sell and seek new
pastures. The result is, there is not
that ornomentation which men and
women can and do make on the home
they love. Rowing and moving
westward with the tide OF emigration
has deprived us, as a nation, OF home
which sanctiies some other nation.
Until IN an is finally settled hc has
no inducement to indulge in adjoining
his home with the thousands Of little
Improvements which his house, lawn
aud farm are capable of receiving.
Ornamental trees are propably the first
and most important item. There are
sacred rccollections in the heaat for
the noble trees under whose shades we
have played in our youth, or which
have added much comfort to the wear
led limbs OF age.
Every man in locating on farm
should be so careful in the selection
IA to adopt it a home for life. Then
he should direct his judgement and
energy in making valuable improve
mcnts by skillful culture, good fruits,
ornamental shrubbery and pleasant
surroundings that no amount of money
would tempt him to sell. Put
down the stakes for life, and cluster
around it so many times thatit could
not be parted with until he Is called
to the better land. The reason so
many farm houses look so dreary and
desolate, the owner wants to sell and
90 west. He is disconnected, uneasy and
vascillating. There is nothing about
his home to fasten his affection or
still his rowing spirit, The Swiss are
a contented and happy pople. and love
their homes and native hills and
dells with an undying devotion. Such
people will ornament and adorn their
homes, though humble and obscure,
with many little home idols which
cheer the heart and often life's thony
pathway. Give us less rowing and
more love of home, then neatness and
sweetness will adorn all homes.
