But find word, title of this, not the least hint
of it i'll all the Bible And surely this is too awful
subject to admit of such play of Imagination. Let
keep to the written word. 1t is torment enough to
dwell with everlasting burnings.
This is strongly illustrated by fabulous story ta-
ken from one of the Eastern writers, concerning a
Turkish King. who, after he had been guilty of all
manner of wickedness, did Il good thing; for,
seeing poor falling into pit, wherein he must
have inevitably periShed, and kicking him it,
saved his life. The story adds that when, for his
enormous wickedness, he was cast into hell that foot
wherewith he had saved the mans life permitted
to lie of the flames But allowing this be real
what poor comfort would it be? What If both
feet permitted to lie of the fiames-yea and
both hands, how little would it avail? Nay, if all the
1t, and only one hand foot kept in a burning
ease? Nay, quite the contrary. Is it common to
you bear it for one minute? How, then, will you
bear hell rep Surely it would be torment enough
to have the flesh burnt OFF from only finger.
into lake OF fire burning with birthstone?
Consider, secondly, that all these torments of body
and soul are without intermission. They have no
respite from pain; but the smoke of their tOrments
ascendeth up day and night Day and night! That
is, speaking according to the constitution of the
present world, wherein God has wisely and gracious
ly ordained that day and night should succeed each
other so that in every four and twenty hours there

STATE TAXATION OF BANK SroCK.-
The following is the decision of the United
States supreme court, in reference to I'M
equal taxation of National Bank stock,
announced on the I'd instant:
No, l9-IHe people of The state of New
York. ca rel G. p. Williams, platntif in
errors, Us. William j. Weaver CT a.. as
SCISSORS, In error to the court of appeals
of New York. The question involved is
the legality of the state S action in virtual
~ discriminating against capital invested
in National Bank stock in the valuations
and assessments made for state taxes.
This court holds. first, that the provision
OF the National Bank law, that State taxa
ton on the shares of the banks shall not
be at n greater rate than is assessed on
other moneyed capital in the hands of cit
| liens OF the state, has reference to the
entire process of assessment, and includes
| the valuation Of the shares AS well as the
rates OF percentage charged at such vau-
alton. Second, that u statute of state,
| therefore, which establishes mode OF
assessment by which the shares Of the
National Banks are valued higher ia pro-
portion to their real value than other
moneyed capital is in conflict with the act
of congress, even though no greater per.
centage is levied on that valuation than on
The valuation of other moneyed capital
Third, that the statute of New York Of
1866, which permits debtor to deduc,
the amount of his debts from the valuation
OF all his personal property, including
moneyed capital, except his bank shares
taxes those shares ut Il greater rate thar
other moneyed capital. and is, therefore
void as to the shares of National Banks
The Judgment of the New York court o
appeals is reversed.

The DEBT BURDENS OF NATIONS Our
national debt is certainly rs large rs we
could wish it. and the burden of taxation
as heavy; but we have the consoIation-if
it be one-that the other great nations of
the world are worse off than we are. The
United States consul general at Frankfort,
Germany, has recently sent to the state
department some interesting figures bear
ing an this point, which show Il large and
steady increase of public expenses during
the last fifteen years, in all the govern
ments of Europe, and heavy additions tn
their national debts, with the single eXcep-
tion of Great Britain, which has slightly
reduced her debt. In gratifying contrast
TO TINS the expenses Of our government
are diminishing an our national debt has
been reduced about S70O,000000 during
the perol. In 1879 the aggregate public
expenses Of Germany were $3l4,393, 900;
Austria, 1921 100000; France. 1867 1872
900; Great Britain. $406, 9S0,O0O; Russia,
S5ll.7o0,0O0; Italy, S26S $40 900; Spain,
81 t3,276,000 In the United States they
were about $237 900 900. or less than Ger
many by $40 I0.00O; less than Austria
Hungary by S54,0000OO less than France
Ivy $3.50 600 900; less than Great Britain
by $4,000 600; less than Russia by
S274OO00O0, and less lhtn Italy by S3l,-
100000.
The national debt of Germany is 81 on

public debt OF Europe has risen from Sl2,-
5O3,OOO0OO in 1865 To $50 so, 100000 in
1879 On the other hlnd, the public debt
of the United States has during the same
time steadily and vastly diminished. In
1863 that debt, rs then audited and lscer-
talne ,amounted to S2,6S0, 64r 500, where
,s on the LIST of Dtcernher, 1878, it had
diminished to S2,027, 4l4,325, II reduction
in IL years of over S653 100000. The debl
oi the United States is now less than that
of France, Great Britain, Russia or Spain.
| md very little more Than that of Austria
Hungary or Italy. Fur military and naval
purposes the following amounts were ex.
pended in 1879: Germany, SOL 26,00O
Austria, S53,074,0O0; France. Sl2S.52O,
600; Great Britain, Sl53, 100000; Russia.
Sl73,47o,00O; Italy. S44,030.O0O; Spain,
S2S, $4,000. Beside these gigantic figures
the cost OF the military and naval arma.
ment of the United States seems triHipo.
and there seems TO be little prospect at the
present time of any material reduction in
the immense military burdens borne by
European countries. The present situation

that the nihilsts are determined 10 take

his life because he has accepted the posi-

and intends to pursue policy of eXter-

has received numerous warning letters
from nihiliSts in various parts of the en-

not imagine that he is designed to escape
