For the kErUBLIOAN.

Suppose sister of ours had been
stricken with paralysis in the early
fall Of 1881, and had been living alone
and unattended most of the time since
then, suffering with physical prostra
ton and mental unrest peculiar to her
malady, and we living within three
short squares of the sufferer. Would
you consider that we had acted a
brothers. part if we had not visited
her, even once, in all these moments of
solitude and minstered to her phys!ca!
ne eds, and endeavored to s0othe tie
stricken one with words of sympathy
and support?
Or suppose we were a farmer, living
in the vicinity Of the city and came to
market weekly with the productions OF
our farm, passing within stones
throw of our invalid sister. Would
you consider us recreant to brother =
duty to pass and re pass, week in and
week out, and Sseldom call in and in
quire concerning her health and well
fare, nor bestOw from our ample store
OF marketing something that would
give evidence that she yet had broth
or who posse ssed heart of flesh, pal
sating wi tn a life blood kindred to that
of her own?
Suppose again, Mr.. Editor, that our
suffering sister had a few thousands in
government bonds; and a few other
thousand in City Loan; besides a few
hundred in banks Of deposit, for cur
rent use; you certainly cannot for a
moment suppose that we would on that
account be more mindful OF our sister s
comfort.
Finally, Messr9. Editor, do you sup
pose that it would be profitable for US
to read and remember a part of the 2Sth
chapter of Matthew, say from the 35bh
to the 4sth verses, both inclusive ?

Incidents Of the Election.

| Observation-Disclosures care exercised
by election officers IN taking votes tn
sharpest of them are sometimes de
ceived. A case In point took place a
the Logan House polls, Seventh ward
last Saturday. A well known gentle
Inan of wealth and leading bushes!
man in the city, presented his vot'
without his tax receipt. The gentleman
was democrat and so was the Inspec
tor, but the latter would not take the
vote unless the voter produced tax
receipt.
The voter had no other resource left
than to get his receipt and sent to his
| store for 1t. In due time 1t came and
the gentleman without reading it hand
ed it to the Inspector who in turn
without reading it, deposited the ticket
and handing the receipt to the assistant
he in turn stamped it without reading
it, and handed it back to the voter, who
locking at the inside for the first time
found that his clerks had made q mis-
take and sent him another mans re-
ceipt. OF course there was no attempt
at fraud in the matter, and as the gen.
tleman was known to be entitled to a
vote any how the whole thing was
treated as a good joke.
A little incident occurred at the
Ninth ward polls which the Democrats
hardly knew whether to treat as a joke
or not. A young colored man came mp
to vote on age, and was willing to be
qualified that he was between u and %
years of age, but the Inspector, DEM
crat, objected to accepting the vote un-
less the young mans mother and the
family record was produced. The
young man brought both his mother
and the family bible to the polls, and
the Inspector being fully satisfied, ao-
Cepted the vote. Presently another
young man, white and of Irish paren-
tage came to vote on age and was will
ing to be qualified that he was of the
required age. The Republican inspector
was very willing that his vote should
be taken If he followed tho precedent
established and bring his mother and
bible to prove his age. This the young
man could not do as his mother was still
in the "Ould Counthry," and had no
bible. His vote was not taken.
A prominent store. keeper in the
Eleventh ward stood at the polls IN
that ward last Saturday afternoon. A
large number of the colored mon of that
ward dealt at his store and when their
votes were refused on account Of non
residence they referred to him to prove
1t as he knew where they resided. The
merchant strangely however did not
know where they lived, did not know
that they dealt with him, did not know
that they ran weekly accounts and in
fact when closely PRESSED denied thai
they even owed bills which he expec5-
ed them to pay off on Saturday night.
When Saturday night came the color
ed men were not on hand as usual to
pay their bills, and the storekeeper TOOK
the trouble to hunt some of them up to
ascertain the cause, when he was frank
ly informed that he declared they did
not deal with him and owed him moth
ing. That merchant has kind of al
idea that it don't pay for storekeepers
to bulldoze colored Republicans.

struck him, aQd chat it was a blow
from list instead of foot as alleged.
MI. Sharpley then made short
speech in defense OF his client, after
which the Mayor said, while the evil
ueuce was very conflicting, there were
three witnesses who swOre positively
az to the assault, and he imposed fine
of s. and costs.

The stock speculation at the beginning OF the
new week develops general but an Irregular
depression of values. From the very opening OF
business to-day, prices began to decline, and saw
ing the usual reactions. they continued to do so
until the end While the declines in some instances
were sharp and important, only moderate declines
are recorded for other stocks The solution OF that
seeming lrreguIarty may DO found in the partial
support winch was given to some stocks By the
same interest, which was pressing sales Of other
stocks. Hence. while Delaware Lackawanna and
Western declined only from 1879 to 1860 1862,
Wabash common fell from 32l2 to 3O03Ol2 and
the preferred stock from 593i 10 56l2056li At
the close there was no excitement but the market
was weak.
