Remedy for Gossip,

Some time since we we're much i'm
pressed by sage observation Of one Of
our best writer's, to the effect, that "a
woman of culture skins over gossip mr.
scandal like bird, mover touching II
with the tip Of & wing" Our attention
has lately diverted into the same chan
mel, and We are thoroughly convinced
that it is to this culture and refined as
sociaton alone, we are to look for the
suppression of the temptation to deal cat
gossip-strings. 1Is
Many well-meaning persons say dis
agreeable and injurious things about
their neighbors simply because thsysdo
not know it is wrong. They wish TO
while away an idle hour, and individual
concerns and interests, however deli
cate, are all they have to think about,
and these matters must be discussed re-
gardless of the effect.
When one is addicted to this vice he
must be either malicious or ignorant,
and often both If the latter, and his
instincts are gregarious. give him books
and a change of range; IL the former,
transport him to Botany Bay, or any
other place for criminals, until change
of heart shall reform life and lip.
There are villages and country CON-
munites in which the mania for gossip
detraction RACES like smallpox and its
effects are as loathsome and deadly. At
happiness, character, even life itself the
blow is often aimed, and all cannot es-
cape its blight,
One is never secure with such per-
sons and should never lay aside defen-
sive weapons when in their society, for
they are ever watching for some vulner-
able point to attack, and the shaft will
be hurled at some unguarded moment.
A pure hearted, well-brcd person will
never speak freely Of anothcr's private
concerns he deems it an impertinence
or breach of decorilm in the indulgence
Of which he would hazard his reputation
for refinement and decency.
Gossiping is a low, debasing, danger
Gus business even churches have been
rent by its blasts, and whole neighbor-
hoods been thrown into commotion by
its bombshcl
How many sleepless nights have these
mean, unlooked-for attacks caused the
sensitive and yirtuous; aud how many
aching eyes and hearts can bear testi-
mony TO the endless torture Of that
poisonous sting inflicted by this class
of persons, whose name is legion Bal

A minister laboring in the mountain
districts of Fayette county, West Vir-

"Dcos he fear the Lord y

any or not. You can 20 behind the

gently reminded her of her debt. In vain
the lady plead limitation, want of funds

The Search for the Diamond Mine Vic
Tins Probably to be Abandoned.
BRAIDwOOD, ILL, March 29.-Despair-
ing of overcoming the Instructions in the
Braidwood mine, which now make it diff
ficult to search for the remaining bodies,
the owners are considering a proposition
to close and abandon the mine and erect
over the entrance monument to the
memory of those there entOmbed. This
suggestion is opposed by the friends
of the dead men. No addition
al progress was made up to
late hour last night in clearing away
debris. A meeting of the various mining
superintendents will be held, and COM
mittee will be appointed to visit the fami-
lies of those yet in the mine and see if a
definite arrangement can be made with
them. If they will agree to it, work will
at once be stopped and the mine closed.
The search still progresses, but without
any bodies being discovered. A passage
way has been cleared about $50 yards,
and the exploring party is still at work.
About 200 tons of stone were moved up to
Yesterday, and it is estimated that there
will remain about 600 carloads of matter,
weighing 19 600 900 pounds.

Brilliant Playing by Shaefer in the Chi

Brilliant Playing by Shaefer in the Chi
cagO Tournament.
CHICAGO, March 29.-The afternoon
game in the Balkline tournament between
Dion and Wallace was tame, as neither
displayed any fine playing. The betting
was even, each man having plenty of
friends. Both played poorly
the greater part of the time.
but Wallace was the weaker.
Dion gained a strong lead. Wallace
however, narrowed the gap toward the
close. Both showed nervousness and
were only 26 apart on the last string.
when Dion run out with a run of 25.
DiOn's score was 800, his average s 32-7I
and his highest run 4S. Wallace second.
549. his average 7 $40, and his highest
run was 81.
Another large audience was present To-
night at Shaefer's second appearance, but
not as large as the one on the preceding
night. Morris this time was his antaponist
and made creditable showing. He
played a good many safety shots, and in
this way managed to keep Schaefer within
bounds most of the time. At times
Schaefer played with marvellous rapidity
IN one instance making So points in pre
cisely five minutes. His run of 153 in the
thlrty-fifth inning was in style and speed
very similar to his 205 Tuesday night.
The Both inning was prolific as Morris i'm
his half ran 76-making a total of 229 for
the two players. Schaefer finished the
game in the 3Sth inning with a run of ~.
Schaefer scored 800, his highest run being
153, and his average 10, 30, 80. Morris
score was 357, his highest run rs, and his
average 8, "A, b. The time of the game
was two hours and twenty minutes.
