aInfIuence of Marriage.

Marriage has a great refining and
moralizing tendency. Where a
man marries early and uses pru-
dence in selecting a suitable COM
paniOn he is likely to lead virtu-
Gus, happy life. But in an unmar-
ried state all alluring vices have a
tendency to draw him away. The
penitentiary reports show a large
share of dIunkards are bachelors. The
more married men we have the
fewer crimes there will be. An I'M
married man is but half a perfect
being, and it cannot be expected
that in this imperfect state he can
keep straight in the path of recti-
tude any more than a boat with one
oar can keep straight course. In
nine cases out of ten where married
men become drunkards, or where
they commit crimes against the
peace of the community, the fOun-
datiOn of these was laid while in a
single state, or where the wife is, as
is sometimes the case, an unsuitable
match. Marriage changes the cur
rent of a mans feelings and gives
him a centre for his thoughts, his
affections and his acts.
Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1879-09-20

How Is 1T that Savage, Wilson
and Tolley, the three "great lovers"
of the people, found out so late that
they were being cheated and de-
fraUded ? They all voted for John
C. Brown, who announced that he
favored the funding Of the bonded
debt. They voted also for the
members of the Legislature who
did fund that debt. They never
opened their mouths to say nay.
They all approved of the funding
of the debt If we are not mis-
taken, they were all three members
of State conventions that emphati-
cally endorsed the funding bill.
When were their eyes opened :?
What opened them? Blind puppies
open their eyes in nine days, but it
took Savage, Wilson and Toliey
almost that many years to get over
their blindness and see. And what
made them all so much smarter
men than all the Governors and all
the other great men from Newton
Cannon down tC Porter :? eve
won't count Marks i'm. We sup
pose that it was written in the book
of fate that they should be the three
lLOSeseS to lead the people out of
Egyptian darkness to the promised
land-of repudiatiOn.-Gd tlatia En-

Suddenly he felt that he loved Fan
