SOMETHING.


|, OCEAN SPRINGS, MISS, Feb. %.
EDITOR STAR Will you allow me- a
few words in the columns of your
paper
1 was highly entertained and heartily
amused by the perusal OF an article in
your last %iesue, signed the Ozark Ages
of Antiquity"
Now, sir, | make no objection to the
article of your correspondent, save that
portion bearing on me and with your
consent. 1 will by the law OF the fates
bring this perpetrator to ~instlce Tor his
utopian crime. We make the least OBJ
lection to his rem ,rk, saying that having
gone to church he was entertained, but
he says the text was not applicable. Well
now, he would have Us believe tnat
when God wrote that text, He meant
all mankind, himself excepted. But
how g%loriously he climbs to the culmin-
alton when he accuses our preacher of
eloquent sermons. Now, sir, here we
have been since he first came to our
town, and never heard any one briug
such accusations against him before !;
and as we wish our preacher to be 9
good man, we fear that, if this Iauda-
ton meets his eve, he will be inflated
with a hurtful degree of pride but
why compl .ih, as it all energies like
Aladdius Genui from The Dark Ages
OF Antiquity" Why, sir, there is nov
30 much ''proud flesh" in our ministry
that numbers OF the most promising
yonne preachers are dying OF this NAL.
sdy. A young cleri gus with a darling
murtache said not long since that a lady
thought him a beau ideal OF q man
how unpsrdonable-but that was ms
our preacher.
So when your correspondent COMES
again t. Ocean Springs, he will please
roll mp the curtain Of the dark ages. aud
r'asise that be is verify ushered into the
Dos Im Of civil .lioh. Or let him I'M
detstand we are here on the warpath,
aud il he Is again found guilty of like
charges, we will bind him hand and
foot and swing him as high as Hannah
on the gallows he has built.
Poor fellow how 1 pity him as he
s'ts tonight By his fire munching his
bread thinking how ne serveu that little
preacher. 1t 1 We're a poet, I would
slug him d song, but perhaps these lines
from another may solsce hlm-
Gently glide away ye hours
Breezes from the dewy bowers:
Soft ye zePhyrs fan his brow
Free from care be slumbers now.

A VERY SAD STORY.


John b. Cough tells the following: "a
minister Of the gospel told me one Of the
most thrilling incidents l have heard in my
life. A member of his congregation came
home for the first time in his life intoxi-
ca-yd. and his boy met him upon the door
step, tapping his hands and exclaiming,
Papa has come home ! > He seized the boy
by the shoulder, swung him around, stag.
gered, and fell in the hall. That minister
said TO me, Il spent the night in that
house. ] went out, barred my brow that the
night air might fall upon it and cool it. /
walked up and down the hill. There was
the child, dead there was his wife in strong
commissions, and he asleep A man about
thirty years of ago asleep, with n dead
child in the house, having a blue mark
upon the temple where the corner of the
marble steps had come in contact with the
head as he swung him around, and O wife
upon the brink of the grave Mr.. Cough
said my friend, Il cursed the drink. He
had told me that l M remain until he
awoke, and | did When he awoke he
passed his hand over his face and exclaimed,
What is the matter? where am /? where
is my boy p You cannot see him. Stand
out Of my way. l will see my boy To
prevent confusion, | took him To the child's
bed; and rs l turned down the sheet and
showed him the corpse he uttered q wild
shrek, All, my child = That minister said
further to me, Zone year after that he was
brought from n lunatic asylum to lie side
by side with his wife in the grave, and l
attended his funeral The minister of the
gospel who told me that fact is TODAY n
drunken hostler in n stable in Boston. Now,
tell me what rum will not do. 1t will
debase, degrade, imbrute, and damn every
that is noble, bright, glorious. and
God like in n human being. There is moth.
drink will not do that If vile, dastardly,
