much deplored, the President was never
for one moment actuated by any motive

Least of all men did he harbor revenge,
rarely did he even shog resentment, and
malice was not in his nature. He was
congenially employed only in the ex.

kindly deeds. There was not an hour
from the beginning of the trouble till
the fatal shot entered his body, when the
President would not gladly, for the sake

any Supposed sense Of humiliation that
might result from suFrendering his po-
sition had not q feathers weight with
him. No man was ever less subject to
such influences from within or from
without, but after most anxious deliber-
alton and the coolest survey of all the
circumstances, he solemnly believed
that the true prerogatives of the execu-
tive were involved in the issue which
had been raised, and that he would be
unfaithful to his supreme obligation If
he failed to maintain, in all their
vigor, the constitutional rights and dig

this in all the convictions OF conscience

Maiarial Troubles.

Just now the human family seems to
to be infested with malarial affections.
Various attempts have been made to ac-
count for the prevalence of malaria. Lo-
cations which have never heretofore ex-
hlbited any traces OF it are in many in
stances found to give trouble to some OF
the Oldest inhabitants It is probable
that there is more than one cause for
this. Our atmosphere varies in its quail
tiles even more than stream varies in
the character of it's waters. The air that
We live in may not only. be affected by
celestial bodies but by the vegetation
above ground and the minerals under
ground. These complex causes may
produce atmospheric conditions alto
gether different, at enc time, from those
existing at another. 1t is not impossible
that the perihelion has something to do
with malaria. Another cause has per-
haps not been thought of. 1t is the
hard times through which the business
and laboring people have passed. Since
1873, until quite recently, those who de-
pended upon business or upon daily
labor for support have been nearly wor-
ried to death. The vital system greatly
lowered by any cause becomes more
easily the prey to disease. A person in
rugged health in many instances may be
found to be ljkg ins well-known ma.
larious climate without suffering from
malaria. 1t is when, from any cause,
his vital system becomes reduced that
he prepares himself for the reception Of
a malarial poison. We submit, therefore,
in sll seriousness the proposition that
the hard times have had much to do
with the prevalanccef malaria.
1t used to be supposed That malaria
could only produce fever and ague or
chill and fever. 1t has been found. how.
ever, that, like a cold, malaria affects the
weakest part, or brings to prominence
latent physical difficulties. Without
having any of the characteristic symp-
toms Of malaria, according to the old
idea, person may be a great sutfere,

Us Of a writer Of some distinction as an
agriculturist, who advocates frequent
watering Of work horses, as remover
OF the vigor OF the animals, We can.
not agree with him. We think both
man and beast are generally watered too
much. Men md horses at hard work in
warm weather perspire Just in proper
ton to the quantity of fluids taken into
the stomach. Frequent drinking in hot
weather, according to our experience,
emasculates instead of refreshes. Some
years ago, being at Cape May, in driv-
Ing out In one Of the stand-coaches Of
the place on very hot day, we asked the
driver how it was that his horse per-
spired 80 little, while the horses Of pri
vate carriages, going at o slower speed
were covered with foam. He replied
that he watered his horses three times d
day only, though he sponged their
mouths frequently, while the private
drivers watered their horses whenever
they stopped. Hesaid, and it seemed
to us very sensible, that the frequent
watering Of horses effected no good pur-
pose, while it made them very uncom-
Portable and lethargic. Horses, no mat
ter what their work was, did not need
watering oftcncr than three times day.
Our own experience with horses all our
life is to the same effect.

sHArise yHn rAoe,

Thirty years ago few persons Of Tor
elgn birth appeared in the streets with
,hair ON the upper lip, and were objects
wi curiosity and sometimes Of public
8rldicule. In 1860 some Of the young
swells OF the metropolis began to wear
mustaches, but for some time no clerk
would venture to initiate them, In one,
cease merchant ON Pine street who had
just engaged clerk for twelve months,
'or during good behavior, discharged him
for wearing a full beard, claiming that
the adoption Of the fashion laid the
clerk open to dismissal under the good
hehavior clause to the contract. About
.the same time number of leading raer-
schants gave notice that they would en-
ploy nobody who wore hair on the up
per lip. As late as 1861 the senior pro-
prietor of this paper made his cashier
shave off an incipient mustache, and
soon after brought his own son under
the razor. In the church of DIR. Be-
thune, OF Brooklyn Heights, an elder
who was suffering from lame wrist al
lowed his beard 10 grow rather than
submit to barber. The habit, begin
ming in necessity, continued on account
of the increase of comfort which it af-
forded, and the elder Haunted his beard
before the congregation constantly. The
result was laughable. Many of the
brethren called upon the pastor to insist
upon doing away with such a scandal
as full-hearded elder. He led them to
his library and showed them how some
of the early fathers had pleaded against
cutting off the beard. "He turned to
Lactantius, Thsadoret, st. Augustine
and st. Cyprian, wsss had stoutly con-
tended for the growth of the whole
beard. He quoted from Clement, of
Alexandria, the assertion that Mature
adorned men, like lion, with beard,
as a mark Of strength and power When
one of the visitors asked him how he
would like 1t If the clergy assumed the
mustache, DR.. Bethune referred him to
decision of the fourth Council of Car
thage CA. d. 252, can. AZ, in which it
was positively enacted that cleric shall
not shave his beard, and to a statement
made by Luther in discussing the sub.
iect, that all the Protestant martyrs
were burned in their full beards.'" This
did not settle the matter, for subse.
quently the ladies of the congregation
put in their protest. But in few
months a venturesome lawyer let his
beard grow after the manner Of the ell
der, and in little while smooth-shaven
faces were no longer the rule but were
the exception. York Journal OF
Commerce.

Tom Ociiltree and Jem Mace.

It was some seven or eight years ago,
just after the Coburn- Mace fiasco, and
the latter was still in the city. AS he
was leaning against the bar number of
gentlemen and Tom Ochiltree were dis
cussine politics and prize fights in an
other part of the room. Mace's wonder
full experiences in the use of his hands
came up, and some one offered to bet q
basket of champagne that no man, un-
less professional, could get in blow
on Mace's face. Ochiltree took the bet,
and walked deliberately over to Mace
and slapped his jaws. The astonished
prize fighter looked at Tom for moment
and then lit out from the shoulder. A
mass of red hair, corpulent body, legs
and boots all mingled in indescribable
confusion, flew through the door and
rolled out over the brick banquette into
the street. While sympathetic bell boys
and laughing friends were Strengthening
Tom out and patching his fragments to-
gether, some of the gentlemen explained
to Mace the circumstances of the bet.
