FIRE IN HARRIsONBURG.-T Rock
ingham Register says that, about 2
O'Clock on Sunday morning of last week
"the house belonging to and occupied
by Susan Trick (colored), Harrisonburg,
was found to be on fire. and before any
assistance could be gotten, the entire
building, together with pretty nearly
all the furniture, was burned to the
ground. The fire was unquestionably
the work of an incendiary, and the
building was evidently fired in two OF
three places, and it is believed that coal
oil was used In order to cause speedy
conflagration Fortunately dead calm
prevailed at the time, and none of the
adjacent buildings were burned, al
though it required great exertion on the
part of the fire department to prevent
it."

sympathy. We feel the power, we are
softened by the influence, we are sub
dued and refined by the pathos, and yet
the harmony comes into our soul like q
delicious dream, not through the work.
ings Of the reasoning faculties, but
through the mellowing influence of ra-
dent sympathy.
Human reason has often less to do
with events than prevailing sympathetic
and initiative movements, which, be-
coming general, like the atmosphere
around us, exert an unconscious but in
evitable pressure upon US. Even educa-
ton and culture cannot at all times resist
its influence. And it is a principle that
asserts itself in all grades and condition,
Of life. The paragon sets the fashions
the pupil unconsciously initiates the
teacher, the child catches the information
of the mother, the inferior learns by inn
itating the superior, and the sad and
gloomy spirit imparts its leaden hue to
all within its bhghting shadow. On the
other hand the hopeful and cheerful and
strong infuse their hope and cheerfulness
and strength into others. And SO of
kindness, forbearance, gentleness and
love; they everywhere send their genial
and benignant influence into the daily
life. We cannot say too much of the
wonderful potency OF kind words. But
words both kill and cure. The poet
Keats, it is said, was killed by an article
in the Edinburgh Reuieso, and the news
papers say that sensitive young lady
died the other day from having received
an insulting valentine If people were
always very kind to each other there
would be less sickness. The pure asmos-
phere of love and charity is to the mind
what the invigorating mountain air
is to the body. The age of peace
and justice and good will, when it
arrives, will be one of health. Envy,
hatred, covetousness, disappointed love,
scolding wives, debt and hard times are
all unwholesome things. Hope and joy
and mirth and music are often more po-
tent remedies than ssdrowsy sirups" and
blister plasters. And how benevolence
and good will conduce to health! Let
nothing else enter the sick chamber but
kind, hopeful, assuring words. .Es-
pecially should the physician, be. . man
Of courage and hope and sympathy. A
long and solemn face, sad looks and
sadder words are enough to make well
man sick. Normal, healthy, enlight-
ened sympathy is one of the most charm-

we declare our purpose 10 take up
the work which fell when Garfield fell"
says the fourth resolution of the
platform adopted by the Independents
of Pennsylvania the other day. . The
work which fell" on the I'd day Of July,
1881, was the mere beginning of large
contract. but we viii give the Garfield
Administration credit for having begun
it energetically.
There was the faint of q previous un-
savory Administration Of which the
Government had to be disinfected; there
were hateful and obnoxious things
tapping over, as it were, from three
consecutive Administrations, that it was
important to get rid of. It was not. in
fact, until the Inauguration of General
Garfield that the work of reconstruction
in broad, National sense and in .
plain, commonsense way, was really
entered upon. But this was not al.
The newly elected Administration had,
in its own party, elements of disaffection
and antagonism to confront, which il il
were not possible to reconcile, it was 1t
least necessary to crush. and it was
right in the midst of this crushing pro-
cess, after it was found that all attempts
at reconciliation were nothing more than
overtures of surrender, that President
Garfield fell by the shot of Stalwart-
crazed assassin and the end of his Ad-
ministration. and all that it proposed to
do or to undo, was draped in cypress
and monographed in blood.
Great as the contract then was which
came to this violent forfeiture, it has
since become far greater and moro for
midable. as the Independents will find
in their bold and aggressive ambition
to renew and complete it. Eve declare
our purpose, they say. 81 to take up the
work which fell when Garfield FELL"
where but they should bear in
mind that an Administration with
which they have few sympathies
in common--an Administration which
embodies in its most intense and tena-
cious form the very reverse of their own
ideas, has since been firmly seated in
power. It is not only firmly seated,
but it has succeeded in far more than
multiplying or neutrnlizing what was
done, or what the friends of Mr.. Gar
field claim to have been done in the in
terest of q better. public service be-
tween the 4th of March and the I'd Of
July q year ago. It has even gone fur
Their, and to some extent at least has
reinaugurated the methods and policies
OF political regime, which. had il not
been for the interposing fraud of 1876,
the country would long since have out
lived and forgotten.
The Independents, however, seem to
be fully aware of the difficulties and 70
probabilities which crowd upon their
new movement. They call for an alb

"A ten-hour law has Of late been
enforced in the mills of Massachusetts,
by State inspectors. One of the ways
in which an evasion of the statute has
usually been attempted was BY starting
before the regular hours, and alleging
that it was necessary, in order to get
the machinery in running order at the
time when work was supposed to begin.
Thus as much as two or three hours
was sometimes added per week to the
legal sixty. The Inspectors have now
decided to allow only five minutes for
starting up, and to prosecute those mill
owners who are longer about it. IN r
