the history of ireland might be traced like a

and the same may be trnly said of the history OF
the colored voters of the South.
They have marched to the ballOtbOX in face OF
have been abandoned by the government and
left TO the laws of nature. So far they are
concerned there is no government or cOnstitu-
ton of the United States.
They are under control of a foul, haegard and
damDlng conspiracy against reason, law and
constitution. How you can be Indifferent, how
any leading eOlOred men allow themselves
to be silent In presence of this state of things,
we cannot see.
"ShOuld tongues be mute while deeds are
wrought which well light shame EXTREMIST
help And yet they mute, and condemn
our assembling here to speak odt in manly tones
against the continuance of this Internal reign OF
terror.
This is no question of party. 1t is question of
law and government. 1t is question whether
men shall be protected by law be Jeff to the

is whether the governments OF the MOD shall rul5
this land; whether the promises s0eInnly made

point we ask the whole people of the United

whom DR.. Elliott took a particular interest, or
h. may have snored loudly as to interfere
with the Doctors religious exercises. In any
one of these cases, DIR. Elliott would have been
plainly justified in shooting Mr., Roberts at any
time except during the sermon. For causes
arising outside of the meeting house, it would,
however, have been improper for him TO shoot
during divine service. That DR.. Elliott was
tmpulsive man is sufficiently evident, ana ne
may have fired without proper motive, as well
as during an improper time. Very probably Mr..
Roberts had spoken disparagingly of the whisky
manufactured at the Doctors dtsJillery. Per-
haps he owed a large bill for whisky and had re-
fused to pay it, or perhaps he had used his inffq-
ence as prominent "chufeh mem Der" to induce
the pastor, the deacOns and the class leaders
to buy their whisky from some distiller whom
DR.. Elliott regarded as his rival. These would
have been causes entirely sufficient to justify
Dr.. Elliott in shooting Mr.. Roberts on sight, but
not in the meeJin g-hOuse. They would have
been purely secular matters, and no cOnscien-
gle religion and secular affairs so far to shoot
OffeHse.
But as Dr. Elliott is dead, 1t is unkind to dwell
too severely upon his error of Judgment. 1t is
much more pleasant TO compliment Mr. Roberts
upon his "spryness with his weapons" aud the
excellence of his aim. He did not give DR.. Ell
lott time to fire asecond shot; he hit the Doc
tor in the head, killing him instantly, and he
hit no one of the bystanders. His conduct was
simply admirable, IN whatever way tits viewed,
and the intention of his fellow Church MEM
bers" to make him superintendent of the Sun
day-schOOl, a slight expression of their ad-
miraJion, cannot be too warmly praised.

Mr.. and Mrs. Stewart at Home.

The domestic life of Mrs. Stewart, like that of
ali prominent people, has for half a century
been subject of curiosity and the topic of COS
sips IL widely circulated for years before
the death OF old Stewart that his home lite was
unhappy, and that he cared nothing for his
wife. Mr.. Libby, perscnal friend and partner
for many years, at one time, IN speaking of the
intercourse of Mr.. Stewart and his wife, said
that in all his life he had never encountered a
couple more happily mated than they; that she
name, and that his tnvariable and never per-
functionary style of address was "My dear"
Although Mr.. Libby was an intimate In their
family for quarter OF a century, he never
heard their voices raised beyond the pitch of
ordinary conversation, nor did he ever observe
disagreement between them, so that, upon the
whole, the flow of their love was greatly to be
envied. In these days of domestic dIse0rd, it is
pleasant to report this, which carries conviction
with it against the contemplate gossip current
about the Stewards in their time.
