A WAVE Of religious reformation has
struck Chicsgo that seems to be productive
of unusual good. The Aotsam that IL Is
washing up on the shore of repentance
comes from a quarter not usually reached.
The entire inmates of two notorious houses
of ll.fame have listened to the Word. and
becoming stricken in ssckcloth and ashes
and bitter teara, they have forsaken their
lives of evil and shame, taken up the cross
and become christian women, changing TIE
glded palaces of sin, where they were wont
to hold the revels and orgies Of infsmy, into
houses of supplication, prayer meetings being
daily held there, and the christian men and
women of the city are taking them by
the hand and welco mirg them into the
folcs of the churches II WAS Mary Msgds-
len who Dstbed the feef.of the Savior wi }
her tears and wiped them with her tresst s,

sand, 'lst who is guiltless cast the fire.,

The Chicago Inter.Ocean says: "Fhe
difference between the foreign trade of Eng
land and France and that of the United
States, is that the former countries are in
porting the necessaries of life, breadstutf5 and
provisions, while we are importing articles
ofluxury." The Inter Ocean negects, how
ever, to tell the people that the immense cum
received for our exports is not allowed to
remain in the pockets of the ople, and go
into general circulation for the benefit Of tho
masses, that all classes may be prosperous,
as four fths of it have to be paid to the
monopolists of this country who are pro"
tected by the tariff laws from competition at
homo and abroad, and who salt down the
United States bonds and other SECURITIES,
their gains extorted from the people. The
Inter. Ocean forgot this fact.

Among the many distinguished
gentlemen whose names are mention
led as probable candidates for Cover
/ Ino of Arkansas in 1882, we know
'of none we could more heartily sup
port than Hon. Hugh NJ. McVeigh,
|of Mississippi county, with whom we
|had the honor of serving in the low
Ter house of the Arkansas Legislature
lin 1881. We know him to be a
,kind, aliablc and unassuming gentle
] .lnan. ~ to his ability it is unques-
;tionable; he has established rcpu-
'tation as a patriot and a statesman
throughout The state that will in the
future history of Arkansas adorn one
/ iof its brightest pages sheridan
,Spy.
We would say to our worthy CON
temporary of the Spy, that our Hon.
! II. NJ. McVeigh's name is not Hugh.
He was named after a greater man
than Hugh-one said to have been
skilled in Architecture, and who de-
= 3signed and planned the building of
a great temple at Jurusalem several
years ago. Hugh II. is brother of
! ibis; and while better looking man,
and quite as popular at home, and a
I s,ip-top deputy clerk, has at present,
no aspiration for gubernatorial hon
zors. We have not consulted Hon,
aIIiram VI. McVeigh, and do not know
whether his political eye is fixed on
;the Governors chair or not, but we
I rather incline to think not, although
Awe fully concur with the Spy, and
lknow of no one whom we would
8more heartily support for the posi-.
Ition. He is eminently qualified in
Eevery particular Cor any position
Ewithin the gift Of the people Of Ar,
! kansas. He is absent at present

conservative craftsmanship, the lin
|geriag evils Of sectional animosity
were being obliterated and an era of
peace and prosperity inaugurated
which may be sadly checked by his
Iuntimely death.
REsoLvED: That in the motives

,Guitteau, we see the outcropping of
THAT political fanatlclsm cngendered
|by the hostility of the stalwart wing

to any course contrary to their ex-
IRENE views, which cannot be too
heartily condemned and censured.
RESOLVED: That we participate
in the great grief Of the widow and
children Of our dead President, and
trust that He who sufTereth not the
sparrows TO fall without his notice,
may temper the storm of allliction to
