don't, it will not require collision of
worlds--the natural processes OF nature will
soon hustle you off TO a region where the
mercury in the thermometer runs so high
that the figures are read from the tops of
tall ladders. We'd give the region name
but for our unwillingness to sandwich one
modest little vowel between three great
ovcrtoworing consonants.
Are you hypocrite and back-bitcrl
If so, effect speedy self-rcformation. In
10 other world with which we are ac-
quantcd are such creatures tolerated. If
you should happen, when the big Jolt
comes to loose your hold, and drop down
in the midst OF a Methodist camp-meeting
crowd on the planet Mars, they'd hari-kari
you, on the spot
DO you steals Do you appropriate yonr
employers changer Do you take weekly
carriage drives, enjoy Saturday night oyster
and wine suppers, make costly holiday pre-
sents, all from salary of six hundred dol
larsl In anticipation of shower of such
young Americans as you are, the police Of
both Mars and Mercury, who have sus-
picion of the forctold collision, are already
organizing. AS fast as you aligh, thcy'll
string you up to lamp-posts.
Are you in arrears with THg BULLETIN;
or do you obtain surreptitious reading of
its well filled columns9 Ask the prayers of
all the churches; make restitution before the
sun goes down! You'd be rara avis
among the decent people of ncighboring
planets and as uncomfortable as social o.
tracism could render you.
Are you--but enough. If your inner
monitor admonishes you that you are not
"all right" there can be no better time than
this New Years day to adopt Reform
Platform, and to swear that it shall, as far
as it extends, be your rule of action in the
future. Let some better motive than fear
of crash of worlds, or the fuillment of
Millcritish predictions, or future happca-
ings OF any kind form the impetus to
your good resolves. Do right for Rights
sake. You will find it sclf-compensating
Good conduct is self-opcrativc 1t works

"pays its own way" and is perfectly indie
pendent of either the future or the past
There is no man so void of fear, so perfectly
independent, in his contemplation of either
the future or the past, as the man who can
say as Lincoln said, that, as he had been
enabled to see his duty he had religiously
performed it.

Overton who said twill kill him. Just as

publicly, and Craig was informed Of it.
Craig fully believed that it was made in

himself by killing Overton. He armed
himself with gun and knife, sought out
the desperate, shot him through the heart
and cut his throat. "There is genera! feel

sufficient in amount TO enable their mer-
chants to undersell us in those ports not
outstanding our geographical advantage.
1t is popularity believed that the English
steamers running to South American ports
stop at New York on their passages to and
from England. They donot. They bring car
goes from South America to New York,
but Che cargoes to South America are taken
from English ports Pending the sessions
Of Congress indeed, when there seems to be
danger Of aid to an American line, the
British line run small steamers to New
York and from New York to South
American ports, but withdraws them when
Congress adjourns. All this is preliminary
to the statement, that upon the return Of
Congress next week, there will be an effort
made to secure aid for the line Of steamers
now running at loss from New York, and
likely to be taken Off and for line from
New Orleans to such South American ports
as offer markets tor our products.
We mention the matter thus at length
because it is something that seems to be of
Importance to every section Of the country,
and therefore to deserve consideration and
discussion, that congress may be so intlu-
cnced as to legislatc according to the wishes
and for the interests Of the people. 1t may
be added that several of the South Ameri-
can states are pledged to give for this pur-
pose, as large amounts as the United States
may appropriate.

( THE enemies Of senator ingalls,, o! Kan
sas seem to have "got point" on him now
They published letter of the senators in
which the postmaster Of Kansas City is
threatened with removal unless he pays over
according to contract" fifty dollars a
month to mutual friend named in the
letter. The senator insisted also, that Ger
tain sums of the kind which the postmaster
had neglected to pay over to the friend,
should also be paid. Office holding in
Kansas, with ingalls, as senator, must be
at once a costly and perlous business.
What q revenue the senator and his friends
must have if they bleed at this rate all the
numberless federal officials that the radical
party inficts upon the state Senator In
gals will find it hard to explain away this
letter, and those who now have it say they
have Others Of similar character.

The waters have gone over me. But
out of the black. depths could be heard,
| could cry out to all those who have but
set foot in the perilous flood. Could
the youth to whom the flavor Of his first
wine is delicious as the opening scenes Of
life. or the entering upon some newly
discovered Paradise, look into my desola-
ton, and be made to understand What vi It. a
dreary thing it is when a man shall feel
himself going down precipice with open
eyes and a passive will-to see his de-
struction, and have no power to stop it,
and yet feel it all the way emanating
from himself to see all godliness emptled
out of him. and yet not able to forget
time when it was otherwise; to bear about
him the piteous spectacle of his own ruin.
Could he see my fevered eye-feverish
with the last nights drinking and fever
ishly looking for to-night's repetition Of
the folly; could he but feel the body Of
the death out of which | cry, hourly with
feebler cutlery, to be delivered-it were
enough to make him dash the sparkling
beverage to the earth in all the pride Of
its mantling temptation.
