SUSPENSION OF THE LIFE-SAYING SERVICE.
The Executive Committee of the New-YOrk Life
Saving Society met at the Maritime Exchange yes
terday TO hear the grievances of Nan the News
boy" and his companions, Gilbert Long and Ed
ward Kelly, who composed the life-saving force.
In the complaints made by the boys considerable
blame was attached TO Captain Boyton, who. they
alleged had made promises of assistance which he
had not fulfilled. Another grievance was that they
received only half the money PAID by John IL.
Starin for accompanying their excursions as the
other halt went into the fund from which their reg
ular weekly wages were paid, they said they were
in reality compelled to earn ii second time. Cap
tain Boyton Indignantly denied the charges made
against him. II. j. Robinson, chairman of the com
mlttee said that no complaints had ever been made
TO the association the members of the association
were all business men who had gwen up an hour
each week from the most valuable part OF the day
the half of the money received from Mr.. Starin was
put into the fund because it was with great diff
Guilty sustained. The gnation of the three menl-
bers Of the corps accepted. Mr. Robinson SAID
at the close of the meeting that the association
would continue its work before as soon as new
men could be employed. The amount now III the

UNITED STATES four per cent.
bonds now command a premium of
two and a half cents, and it is bes
lieved they will advance during this
year to FIVE. This shows two things,
one very gratifying, the other not.
1t shows that the credit of the Gov
eminent, thanks to Secretary Sher>
man and the present administration,
is all the time improving. Indis
viduals with the very best credit
can not borrow money at lower
rate of interest thru six per cent.
The Government is not only able to
do so, but people are paying pre-
MUM for the privilege of loaning
their money to the Government at
four per cent. This is gratifying
to all true patriots, who feel proud
of their country.
1t shows farther, that the held
for profitable investments is not
very large. There is plenty of
money in the country but it can
not be safely invested so as to make
good returns, so people prefer Gov
eminent securities at a low rate of
interest. But this state of affairs
will be overcome sooE we trust:
The outlook is improving, and I'M
less Congress should adopt some
foolish measure to retard it, we will
soon be in the full tide of pros
perity.

A REPORT having been put in
circulation that Senator Chandler
was about to commence a damage
suit against the Washington Post,
the correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial says:
cit has been published that Senator
Chandler intends TO sue the washing
ton Post for libel in charging that he
was drunk when he made his speech
the other day. In an interview to-
day, the Senator said he never had
any such intention, and that the re-
port originated with the editor of the
Post, who was anxious that he should
sue, but he (Chandler) preferred not
to give him any nOtOriety. He said
that he once knew a 10y who was
going home from Sunday School and
found himself i'll unpleasant associa-
ton with a skunk. The boy threw
his Bible at the skunk, but he spoiled
his Bible and didn't hurt the skunk.
Chandler says that the editor of the
Post could not be punished by libel
suit, rs he had neither character nor
money, and as his only capital was
notoriety he (Chandler( did not want
to Increase it,"

WAS HE INSANE?

The trial Of Freeman, the Second
Adventist, who murdered his little
daughter in Pocasset, Massachusetts,
has been postponed until October,
and his friends are trying to bring
in a plea of insanity. 1t will raise
a question that has not come before
the courts of the country, that we
know of, and its settlement will be
looked to with good deal of inter-
est. In one sense the man was I'M
doubtedly insane. No sane man
could believe that a God possessing
the attributes of the Deity we
worship in this country would com
mand him to take the life of his in
nocent offspring as Freeman
did. And yet, with his mind
worked up to frenzy on the sub
ject of religion as his was, and
entertaining the views of religion
he entertained, he honestly believed
no doubt that he was performing
Gods command. Judgment had
been dethroned; he was deaf to the
voice of common humanity. But
the drunkard who is crazed with a
too free use of whisky has also lost
his reason for the time being, and
commits acts that no sane man
would think of justifying.
The question is, how..far is a man
to be excused for the commission
of unlawful acts in the name ofrelig-
ion? The Mormon, who degrades Our
institutions, and sets the law of the
land at defiance does it in the name
of religion, and yet there are COM
paratiyely few persons who will in
sist that the Mormons should not be
punished for a violation of the
laws of the country. We believe
with the New York Independent
that as this man Freeman is guilty
of murder. the courts ought to Sc
find him. The sooner such shock
ing results of superstition anG
fanaticism are stopped the better
We are in favor of the largest
freedom in religious matters, bu
this freedom must conform to reason
and humanity. If we are to hav'
such shocking exhibitions as thes'
in a State where the people boast o
their intelligence, let US cease
wasting our money for the purpose

tic medicine that.can be employed: cleans
inc the stomach and bowels, and even the
blood. In small doses Of one pill a day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than quarter of century, and have
obtained a worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that Obstruc-
lions within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffied the best OF
human skill. While they produce power
full effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not infamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
suear-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
