KINGsrON,s ELECTION Mon.
The Evidence of Outrage mud nioting-The
Rings Leaders Alarmed.

KINGSTON, March 23-The committee ap-
pointed by the Assembly to investigate tho out
rngoous proceedings connected with the recent
election In Kingston were in session here yes
terday. The testimony so far presented fully
sulstnntiates the reports heretofore given in
THE SUM- and to-day little knots of local poti-
clans ara grouped together all over the city
eagerly discussing the results likely TO follow
the investigation. Tho Ring men are alarmed
at the outlook. Tho evidence connecting them
with outrage and riot Is conclusive and un-
improbable. The twcnty-three witnesses cx-
amincd have all sworn positively that the Cutler
pnrty had an organized gang Of roughs mt the
polls who would allow no man to vote except he
Gust the Ring ticket. The witnesses examined.
with hut few exceptions, have until recently
always been Democrats. and they are all lead
ing citzrns OF the town.
Tho evidence summarized amounts TO just
! this: At the recent town election the honest
Democrats combined with the Republicnns to
overthrow the ringsters. who for yenrs have
been proving upon the town. Tho Ring mon
captured the polls and kept u gang ot from 80

BALTIMORE. March 23.-Mrs. Mary Kirch-
ner. n good looking woman OF 40, was taken to
the city Jail to-day to be tried for an assault

Kirchncr lives with her husband John 3.

including daughter II years Of age. Schlereth
is also married. and has n family For some
time an intimacy has existed between Schlereth
and Mrs. Krchner tho precise character OF
which can only be inferred from the woman's
desperate act. The vitriol throwing was done
in n saloon yesterday afternoon. While
Schlereth and some friends were engaged at
n game OF cards the door suddenly opened and
Mrs Kirchner entered the place. Going up TO
Schlereth in very excited manner she said.
You disgrnced me before my husband yester-
day" and before he could reply pulled from

fell on Mr.. Luzlus's hand burning II severely.
besides running his coat. and burning the
clothing OF several others who were watching

Were playing had the appnnrance OF having
been scraped with some instrument the var

Duration of Eternity.

Various illustrations have been
suggested to convey to the mind
some idea of illimitable duration.
Il has been said suppose one drop Of
the ocean should be dried up every
thousand years, how long would it
be ere the last drop would disap-
pear, and the oceans bed be left
dry and dusty? Far onward as
that would be in coming ages,
Eternity would have but conn
menced.
1t has been said, suppose this
vast globe upon which we tread
were composed of particles of the
finest sand, and that one partile
should disappear at the termina-
tion of each million of year, oh,
how inconceivably immense must
be the period which must elapse be-
fore the last particle would be gone!
And vet Eternity would then be in
its morning twilight.
1t has been said, suppose some
little insect, SO small as to be inper-
ceptible to the naked eye, was to
carry this world by its tiny mouth
fuls to the most distant star the
hand of God has placed in the heaV-
ems. Hundreds of millions of years
would be required for the single
Journey. The insect commences on
the leaf of a tree, and takes its little
load, so small that even the micro
scope cannot discover that it is
gone, and sets out upon its almost
endlessjourney. After millions and
millions of years ave rolled away,
it arrives back for its second load.
Oh, what intermina BILE ages would
elapse before the whole tree would
be moved! When would the forest
be gone? And the globe! Even
then, Eternity would not have COM
menced!
Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1879-11-08

THE following sensible article is
clipped from the Jackson Tribune
and SIM of a recent date:
That species of economy which
SquanderS hundreds of dollars on
useless but snowy tinery, and then
SqueezeS poor sewing women down
to pittance upon which a Church
mouse would starve, is not altOgeth-
er thing for any lady or gentle
man to be proud of. And yet there
is no little of this very sort of econ
Omy among those of both sexes who
aspire to be leaders of fashion and
Of aaciety, and it is not an infre-
quent thing TO hear such people
boast of how much certain articles
of clothing cost them and how chsdp
they got some poor, pinched, pale,
half starved woman to make il up.
Now this may be economy after a
fashion, but il is neither that kind
of religion, morality, aristocracy,
fashion or common honesty which
will commend itself To right think
ing people with brains in their heads
and hearts in their breasts BE sure
of this all We fashionable folks who
pride in the cOSftineSS Of your rail-
ment and the chedpHeSS of Its max
ing up. And if YOU would do as
YOU would be done by, or command
respect for right feelings and fair
ness, or deserve credit for economy,
why, divide your savings, at least,
between the rich merchant and the
hard worked, pinched faced sewing
woman.
