EIttOf Hdulcdt' was indeed laY0r-
ably impressed with the idea that
we lived in the midst of civilized
and christian people until l read the
article in your paper entitled "What
Makes Infdels," since, l am sorry to
say, my opinion has been consider
ably altered. Doubtless, Mr.. Editor,
after you saw it in print and read it
over with calm and serious rehec.
ton, You must have been greatly
scandalized. l am certain, only that
your type was set BY steam last week,
and therefore until too late did not
reflect on its malice and deformity,
1t never would have disgraced your
columns. 1t is quite evident that
the writer was ashamed to come out
in his original name, and hence
shelters himself under the mantle of
mo Infdel;;" but yet he is detected,
as the christian world can separate
her inspired doctrines from infdelity,
and also tell him face to face that he
is lower than an infidel-Pagan. 1t
is possible indeed that the writer
when he saw his impetous and in
famous production before the public
that he gloried and viewed himself
as a literary, historic and philologi-
cal giant. Poor gigantic ignoramus!
Let us place a dwarf upon your
brawny shoulders-and one much
inferior in stature to any of these
that the barbarian show-men exhibit
and carry around to make filthy
lucre' and yet that miniature could
see amazingly far ahead of you. A
school boy in the Srd Reader would
most decidedly ridicule your produc-
ton as an English composition. In
deed this literary character may
decently feel gloated with pride, as
his lucubrations plainly indicate
that a mosquito could pick as much
brains and cultivation out of red
brick as his cranium contains.
However, his article still possesses
many genuine and sterling qualities,
which indeed we Do not envy or
covet. For the wealth of the uni.
verse, we would not love to hold or
inherit one iota of them. It is i'm.
pregnated with malice toward his
neig hbors who do not relish impiety,
blasphemy against God and an utter
hatred for all christian creeds and
what they inculcate. 1t would be
impossible for me to defend or ex-
plain in one limited article the doc.
trines of "Purgatoryn "Yorship of
the Virgin Mary, and the selling of
Indulgences;" neither is it my in.
tention. However, feel constrained
to offer few remarks on the SELLING

The Republicans of Kanawha are
given very weak broth, and in scant
quantity, when they are fed on such
stuff as that Scared Badly" in the
last State Tribune. No, no, Mr.. Re.
publicans, the Democracy of West
Virginia are neither scared, nor are
"its members weary or heart.sick"-
The "weary and heart-sick" belong
entirely to another crowd and are
known as Republicans.

The Republicans seem to be terri
bly, worried because the Legislature
did not make at least one Republi-
can District. They forget that by no
possible means could a Republican
District have been made, even if the
Democratic party had been inclined
to be that liberal. We have a "good
thing" and we propose to keep it,

Carson Appeal
A gentleman from CandelaSia, Nevada,
informs us that the smallest baby In the
world Was born In that canp at noon on the
Sd inst. The father is aniner In the employ
of the Northern Belle mine and weighs one
hundred and ninety pounds. The mother Is
. stout, healthy wsmsn, weighing perhaps,
one hundred and sixty pounds. The child
is . male, rs perfectly formed IS any human
being could be, but upon Its birth 1t only
weighed eight ounces. Its face is about the
size Of horse chestnut and the size of its
limbs can be imagined when we say that a
ring worn on the little finger of Its mother
was easily slipped over its fsot nearly to the
knee. Our informant states that it was the
the opinion Of the attending physician that
the child would live and prosper in good
health, notwithstanding Its diminutive pro-
portions. The midget 10 so small that three
of its size could play hide and seek In q cigar
box. This is believed TO be the smallest
baby ever born.
