Gen. Less Desire to End the War.

Der of the Historic Magazine con
tains the reply of Hon. r. M. t.
Hunter, of Virginia. to the recent

a number of very remarkable facts,
among which is the statement that
both Gen. Breckenridge despaired
of the Issue of the war, and earnest

taken to secure peace considerable
time before the final catastrophe.
Gen. Lee went so far as to seek a
personal interview with Mr.. Hun

Henry Ward Beacher Repudiates the
Doctrine.

From recent sermon IN Plymouth Church.
1t was said Adam was created
perfect 1t was also said that
Adam sinned, and that, in conse
quence of that sin, the whole human
race fell. The numbers of the hu
man race were actually beyond
computation, and for thousands and
thousands and thousands of years
they had been born into the world,
had Lived and struggled, and finally
died. and gone-where? Ifyou tell
me they have all gone to heaven,
my answer will be that such a
sweeping of mud into heaven would
dehle its purity, and | cannot ac-
cept that If you tell me they have
gone TO hell, then / swear by the
Lord Jesus Christ, whom have
sworn TO worship forever, that you
win make an infidei of me. The
doctrine that God has been for
thousands of years peopling this
earth with human beings, during u
period, three foarths of which was
not Illuminated by an alter or
church, and in places where vast
., pu.atioa of people are yet with
out hi,t light, is to transform the
Almighty into a monster more hide
Gus than Satan himself, and l swear
by all that is sacred that l will
never worship Satan, though he
should appear dressed in royal
robes and seated on the throne of
jehovah Men may say, "You will
not 90 to heaven" A heaven pre-
sided over by such demon as that,
who has been peoplng this world
with millions of human beings and
then sweeping them off into hell,
not like dead flies, but without tax
ing the trouble even to kill them,
and gloating and laughing over
their eternal misery, is not such
heayen as / want to go to. The
doctrine is too horrible. 1 cannot
believe it and | won't. They say
the saints in heaven are so hap
py that they do not mind the tor
ments of the damned in hell. But
what sort of saints must they be
who could be happy while looking
down upon the horrors of the bot
tomless pit? They don't mind.
They're safe; they're happy. What
would the mother think of the 16-
year old daughter who, when her
infant was lying dead in the house,
should come dancing and singing
into tho DarlOr and exclsim ooh
I'm so happy, mother: I don't care
for the dead baby in the coffin!'
Would she not be shocked? And
so with this doctrine. And, by the
blood of Christ, l denounce it; by
the wounds in His hands and His
feet, | abhor it; by His groans and
agony, l abhor and denounce it as
the most hideous nightmare of
theology.

A Delightful Occasion.

Under this head the Dallas TEX. J
Commercial speaks as follows of a
social gathering at the residence of
Prof. Jones formerly OF Pulaski.
It was the privilege of Que of the
Commercials representatives to be
present at social gathering, last
night, where refinement and hospi
tally silently spoke volumLs OF our
older States. A good many young
friends OF President Jones' sou and
daughter were invited to the PFesi
dests residence at the college
grounds. 1t is only few months
since that Miss Lula Jones made
her debut in Dallas, yet in the short
period she has won many admiring
friends. Accomplished and fasci
mating, those who listened to her
sweet voice yesterday evening, and
noted he- agreeable manners, viii
not soon forget the occasion. which
was delightful one To all present.

ve&etine,

The following letter from Rev G W Mans
field, formerly pastor of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church, Hyde Park, and at present set
tied IN Lowell, must convince every one who
reads his letter Of the wonderful curative
qualities of Vegetine as a thorough cleanser
and purifier of the blood.
HYDE PAEK, MASS, Feb Is, re.
Mr. II K STEvENs-
Dear Sir; About ten years ago my health
failed through the depicting effects ofdyspep-
STA, nearly year later was attacked by ty-
phoid fever in its worst form. 1t settled in
my back and took the form of large deep
seated abscess. which was fifteen months Ia
gathering. ] had two surgical operati ons by
the best skill in tie State, but received no
permanent cure. / suffered great pain at
profuse discharge. also lost small pieces OF
bone at different times.
Matters ran on thus about seven years till
May, 1874, when friend recommended me
to go 20 your office and talk with you of the
virtues of Vegetine. | did so and by your
kindness passed through YOU, mandatory
noting the Ingredients, DC, by which your
remedy is produced.
BY what | saw sand heard / gained some
confidence in Vegetine
l commenced taking it soon after, but felt
worse from its effects; still | persevered. and
soon felt IT was beneftting me in other re
spects. Yet did not see the results desired
till had taken it faithfully for little more
than year, when the difficulty in the back
was cured, and for nine months have en-
joyed the best of health.
have in that time gained 25 pounds OF
flesh, being heavier than ever before in my
life, and was never more able to perform
labor than now.
During the past few weeks had q scrofu-
lous swelling as large as my fist gather on an
other part ofmy body. took Vegetine faith
fully and it removed it level with the surface
in month. / think 1 should have been
cured of my main trouble sooner il had ia
ken larger doses after having become accus-
toned to its effects.
Let your patrons troubled with scrofula or
kidney disease understand that it takes time
to cure chronic diseases; and if they wlll pa
tiently take Vegetine it viii in my Judgment
cure them. With great obligations ! am yours
vely truly, & W MANSFIELD,

Among the Dead FaiIures

OF the past, how many bogus nos
trums may be mum bered Beginning
their careers with tremendous flourish
OF trumpets, blazoned for time ia the
public prints and on flaming posters,
soon, but not too soon, were they rele-
gated to the limbo OF things lost on earth.
But Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is a liv-
ing and thriving remedy. 1t goes on,
curing and to cure. Neither underhand
nor open competition affect it. On the
contrary, contrast with inferior rival
preparations only increases its popular
itY. 1t has been repeatedly initiated,
but without success. CoLnterfeits of it
have been surreptitiOusly introduced,
but have fallen flat. Everywhere it en-
trenches itself in the confidence of the
people; and well it may, for it is a thor
oughly reliable invigorant of the feeble,
bapishes dyspepsia and constipation,
braces the nerves, cures rheumatic all
mentS and the kidney complaints, and
eradicates and prevents intermittent and
remittent feyers. jan3-1m

Credit.


This is the great curse of our
country. If there was no credit
system the farmers and mechaics
would be in much better condl-
ton. If the worlsing people re
ceived cash for their labor they
would not need credit. 1t would
be best for all men in business, the
merchant and grocer. II our. State
had have had no credit it would not
to day be eroanisg under debt it
is not able to pay. The best law
the next Legislature could enact
would be to abolish all laws for the
collection of ordinary every day
transactions. "Pay as you go" is
the true motto for all. And why
the press of the State has not urged
the adjustment of the credit sys-
tenn we are at a loss to understand,
for there is no class of working
people who has felt and suffered
from its evil effects more deeply
than the toiling publisher of news
paper. His subscriptions, job work
and advertising are scattered all
oy er the country, and great deal
of it is done on promises TO pay,
and much of it is paid in Domises,
There is no man who labors, and
is willing to work, who, if paid Tor
his labor, would need the often de-
manded credit under our present
system of credit, and if it was abol-
ished there is no class ofpeople who
would reap greater benefits from it
than the members of the press, and
we would like for each and all OF
them to speak out on this subject,
and urge upon the members of the
next Legislature TO pass a law to
make it unlawful so collect a debt.

which is growing somewhat wrink-
led. His brown hair, originally in
thick locks. is gone where it is part
ed on the crown. His mustache
and goatee are gray, like Gordon's.
He dresses plainly, sits of YEARLY
and austerely, has his speech before
him and his books piled up, aud
finally begins. He starts of softly
aud deferentially, advances with
logical eumulativeness, and all at
once yields from Yeariness. Cor
don is the most martial looking maa
in the Senate. He has a heavy scar
under his left eve. reaching down
to the cheek, and his figure and
temperament are a lighters. A long
stray lock from his thinning black
hair, relieves q forehead otherwise
200 high. His goatee is gray. His

WILL in not accepting the PROPOSE

Why they Didn't Know it Before

Poi. Newcomb, of the Washing
ton Naval Observatory, and Presi-
dent of the American Association
for the Advancement of Science,
gives the following additional inter
esting facts relative to the discovery
of the moons of Mars: The reason
why these moons have not been SEGA
before is, that Mars is nearer to the
earth than it has been at any time
since 1915, when the great telescopes
of the present day had hardly begun
to be known. The first opportuni-
ty occurred in 1868; but the satel-
lites did not seem to have been es-
pecially sought for by the two OF
three telescopes which alone could
show them. The next favorable
position was in 1873, but Mars was
then so far south of the Equator
that it could not we'll be observed
in our ATTITUDES. The present is
about the best position for observa-
ton in the middle ATTITUDES of our
hemisphere. The next opportunity
will occur in October, 1880, after
which the satellites will probably be
entirely invisible for ten years.
Prof. Newcomb regards this, per-
haps, as among the most remarkable
things in the solar system.
