What Sort.

What sort OF morality is that which
satisfies man in the non n-pcyment of a
debt as long as his creditor refrains from
"dunning?"
What sort Of morality is that which
satisfies itself in the non-payment Of a
debt because it is a small anount-a
trihe?
What sort of morality is that which
calls the attention of the creditor TO an
over.charge but is silent about an under
charge?
What sort of morality is that which
seeks to evade meeting his creditor lest
he should be more plainly reminded of
his Indebtedness
What sort of morality is that which
satisfes itself in the on-payment of q
debt because the creditor is presumed by
the debtor not to need what the debt calls
for?
What sort of morality is that which
satisfies itself in the nom payment of q
debt because of failure in. farming or
other enterprise or undertaking7
What sort of morality is that which
gets offended when asked to pay q debt
which the debtor promised to pay long
before the time Of dunning7
What sort OF morality is that which
provides for his own wife and children
by defrauding the wife and children OF
another man, dead or alive, to whom he
is justly indebted for things which have
been used by the debtors family for their

What sort Of morality is that which
ignores moral obligation as to debt
and pays only when the civil law COM

What sort Of morality is that which
lightens the obligation to pay just debt

base slander against him by publishing

red to, but reporter for the Ne,ps and
Courier, irresponsible and reckless of
everything but news, as most reporters
are, and further influenced to evil by the
pernicious examples and teachings Of his
several wicked associates on that Journal.
The reporter for the Ne,0s and Courier
was very different style of individual
from the sedate, conservative and tax
paying citizen who presides over the
misfortunes of the Nepo and is held re-
sponsible for it's utterances of written
words and commercial paper. We hope
our esteamed contemporary, the Free
Press, will correct its Injurious statements.
The facts of the lynching are that the
lynchee confessed to the reporter for the
Ne,Ds and Courier above mentioned the
commission of two outrages on women
one white and one colored--several at
tempts at the same crime, the wanton
murder Of colored girlin Williamsburg
County, and more horse thefts, burgla-
ries and larcenies than he could enumer.
ate in the short period of life allotted to
him. He further coincided frankly in
the general opinion that he ought to die,
and expressed himself latter fifteen min
utes of prayer) as being as fully prepared
as he ever expected to be. Under these
circumstances, the reporter of the News
and Courier did represent to the citizens
of Orangeburg County there assembled,
that it would be q grave injustice to his
newspaper, himself and the peace of the
community to allow the proposed exc.
cution 70 await the slow, uncertain and

II Is probable that not even yet has the

or Tories. In oudwar for indepe ndence can be
fairly estimated. Strange 1t may seem at
hrst sight. 1t IL actually easier to obtain an at
tentive and sympathetic hearing for an OK
position OF tho aims and motives which actu.
ated the seeding States during our civil war.
But the truth Is that secession Is recognized
as only an extravagant application Of the doc
trine OF state rights which 10 still ardently up-
held by q large and influential part OF the
Northern people while even those who take an
extreme Federalist view Of the powers vested
In our national Government feel con-
strained to conciliate tho inhabitants Of
the Southern States. Accordingly. although
secession may DO a lost cause. its cham
pions are treated with q considera-
ton unparalleled and unapprsached in
the history OF civil contests. But the Tories
have no friends. They arc not only discred-
tied. but extinct. For a century the tide OF
public opinion has set 80 strongly against
thom that even their descendants are ct pains

In volume Of some xix hundred pages,

Port has prepared and Messrs. Houghton. Mif-

tribution to the evidence In favor OF the theory
which would attribute to Lord Bacon the au-
thorship Of the plays which pass under Shake
speares name. Mrs. Pott purposes. 1t seems.

corrOborative testimony which may fairly b
described ms newly discovered. and we may do
well. tn erciore. to defer indicating the objsc-
tions to the hypothesis which now suggest
themselves until the whole case Of the plxin-
tifis Is before us. Such suspension Of jutiy-
mont will appear tho more judicious to tbs
candid reader OF this book when he discovers
that Mrs. Pott has already overthrown tho
fundamental argument which aimed To- refute
the inference drawn from the many curious CO.

Shakespeare plays-the argument namely
that such condolences OF thought and express

ton Is reargued.

That Bribery.

Albany, SIN the Albany court
Of Oyer and Terminer, the case of
the People against Loren B. Ses-
sions, charged with an attempt to
bribe Assemblyman Bradley, was
called to-day. During the deadlock
of 1881, when Roscoe Conkling and
T. G.. Plat were trying to get back
into the United States Senate,
Bradley was voting for them
and Sessions was voting for
other candidates. One morning
Bradley astO2ished the legislature
and public by rising in his chair and
proclaming that Sessions had
offered him $4,000 If he would
change his votes from Platt
and Conkling to Chauncey
M. Depew and William A. Wheeler
it was alleged the bride money was
placed in the hands of George ii (.
Sharpe, then speaker of the assembly
by whom it was retained and after
ward given in charge of the State
comptroller. Before the COM
mittee of Investigation, Ses-
SiOnS denied every charge.
The committee report failed to clear
up the case and Sessions then en-.
tered suit. The defense desired a
postponement, but not making a
formal motion to that effect, the
Judge decided to 90 on with the
case. Only two jurors were OBJ
tanned, when court adjourned for
the day.
