The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1883-02-22

SOME soldier of the West Virginia
Cavalry had an interesting article in
the last number of the rtsmouth
Times. Among other references, he
says:
Our duty consisted mainly in scout
ing. and on one of these excursions
the following incident occurred: The
writer and Gabriel Poor, of Jackson
County, composed the rear guard on
the return march. When near Front
Royal, Poor noticed a couple of fine
hogs lying near straw stack. With
out warning, he Poor raised his car
bine, fired and killed one of the pork
ers. Dismaunting, he proceeded to
skin and cut out the hams, and while
doing so three Of Mosby's Guerillas
appeared on a hill near, and commenc-
ed firing at us. Poor kept at work
and told me to engage the enemy,
their bullets came pretty close, when
he told me to charge them and run
them away or we would have to go
without fresh pork. Galloping across
the bottom to the foot of the hill, our
enemy fell back and we came into
camp with two nice fresh hams.
On another occasion while about
fifteen of us were returning from a
scout on the Blue Rid dge, we came to
a very pretty farm on the side of the
mountain, and I felt kind enough to
drop to the rear and close the farm
gates, as there were several Of them.
While closing the last one, little
girl, about ten years old, came to us
and asked for yankee newspaper. /
gave her copy Of the jackson Stan
dard, and smiled to think of such red
hot rebels as they were reading the
equally red hot locals Of that paper.
l have met Mr.. Mackley several times
since that time, but forgot to ask him
if they ever sent in their subscription.

courts have nearly always ruled that
inebriety could not be held as an ex-
cuse for crime, and even gone so far
as to consider it an aggravation of the
ofense. If there is more perfect de-
thronement Of the reason in actual
insanity than there is in certain cases
of inebriety, close scrutiny has never
enabled me to detect it, and many
astute observers in the medical pro-
fession are arriving at the same con-
clusion. To hang man for the COM
mission Of murder while he was inc
briated, the habit having been inher-
tied from drunken ancestor, or being
born with a peculiar condition Of the
nervous system always ending in the
most helpless inebriety, is nothing
else but legal murder. We pity those
born with deformed bodies. Would
it not be just also to pity instead Of
condemn those equally unfortunate
with deformed mental attributes?
Inebriety is disease; one, too, over
which the poor victim has no more
control than he has over his neuralgia
or rheumatism. He wishes to be
cured, but there is only one method
that cures-shutting up the liquor
shops, and thus depriving him of the
means of gratifying his diseased pro-
pensity.
