acme OF efficiency. and while all signs Of
rupture between their leaders have for tho
moment disappeared. 30 nicely balanced
arc tho arguments for one course and for the
other that Mr.. PARNELL's followers seem to
have made up their minds to hold their de-
cislon in abcyance. and to shape their action
In any critical division according to the dis
position shown by the Ministry to redress
some fragrant grievances that will be pressed
on It's attention.
This challenging, oxpectant attitude OF Mr..
PARNELL's friends Is peculiarly embarrass-
ing just now to Mr.. GLADSTONE. Even II the
lifelong tics that bind him TO many OF the
old Whlg families did not avail to temper
the Prcmier's resentment at the reception OF
his most important measure by tho Peers,
he would be likely to tread cautiously. for
he knows that to discipline the upper House
for exercising n traditional privilege would
In practice prove moro difficult than tho
hcadlong Radicals suppose. lilo has doubt
less had private hints from influential
Wings and some OF the elder Liberals In the
Commons that In their opinion the present
crusade against tho Lords Is premature, and
that they cannot take part In vlndctlvc
attempt to punish branch OF the Leglsla-
turc for proposing to test the Premicr's ac-
cord with the electors. The secession OF
such modcratcs would probably reach such
propol tions that tho counteractng weight OF
the Nationalist members might bc indis-
pensable to avert a Government defeat.
Tho price, however. which Mr.. PARNELL is
expected to ask for his support Is one that
Mr.. GLADSTONE would be most loath to pay,
for il would involve nothing less than the
virtual disgrace, if not positive ccnsurc. OF
Ear SPENCER and Mr.. TREvELYAN for
completely In the mock trial of CORN
WALL and other persons implicated
in the Dublin scandal. and as acccs-
soiies to tho shameful outrage upon
justice pcrpctratcd in the hanging of MILES
JoYcE. To thus make an example of the
Lord lieutenant and Chief Secretary for Ire-
lind. however richly such treatment may
have boon deserved, would expose Mr.. GLAD
STONE to fierce rcproachcs for bctraying two
OF his most zealous partisans who had ac-
| would render the breach bctwocn him and
the modcratcs unpas,ablc.
All these vexatious and pcrilous complica.
tions may be avoided by the compromise
now mooted between tho Government and
| the Conservative majority in tho House OF
| Lords. To such an cypedicnt tho shrcwd po.
sition taken by Mr. PARNELL's followers
supplies, as we have seen, the strongest i'm

The Morality of Herbert spencer.

Men who cannot understand ISAIAH be-
lleve In SPENCER
This language Of roproach was recently
put into tho mouth OF tho Rcv. DIR. q. II.
SMYrH Of Harlem, by DR.. PRIME OF the
Ner York Observer. In an interesting lotter
to that journal describing meeting Of cler-
gymen ut Saratoga, at which tho prevalence
Of dishonesty In the community was tho
subject Of discussion.
1t seems that tho ministers Of TINT village
moot overy week to discuss topics Of interest
In their calling, and they are accustomed to
invite to their meetings such cergymen as
may be visiting Saratoga. There is usually
short address on tho selected subject, fol-
lowed by general debate.
On the occasion we have mentioned the
Rev. DIR. SMYrH spoke first. He declared
stealing to DO tho sin Of the times. The
great cause OF this sin In Its present magnt-
tude no thought was "the loss OF faith In
the old doctrines Of the Gospel, as they were
preached by tho Puritans and believed by
the people," He said the pulpit had largely
ceased to preach them, and, indeed, openly
ridiculcd somc OF them. Men who cannot
understand ISAIAH believe in SPENCER"
Wo arc not now concerned with DIR. SNYTHs
criticisms on tho attitude OF tho pulpit to-
ward commercial dishonesty. but 1t Is proper
to call attention to the injustice OF tho as
sumption involved In his remark in regard
to HERBERT SPENCER. Tho idea which 1t
conveys is that ths study OF Mr.. SpENcER's
philosophical writings is conducive to laxity
of morals. Nothing, in our opinion, can DO
further from the truth than this suggestion.
III anything Is distinctly taught In his phi
losophy, IL Is the absolute necessity OF doing
right in order to live happily. and the GER
tainty that punishment will follow sin.
We do not believe that any one intelligent
enough to comprehend the authors moan
ing was ever mado worse by reading the
| works Of uERBrWT SPENCER.

Col. Hoyl's Nomination.

We received the news of Colonel
Hoyls nomination for the Senate
from this district last Wednesday
night when it was so late we bare-
ly had space and tune to announce
it before going to press. We de-
sire to say now, however, that the
nomination meets with our un-
qualified approval and that we
shall do everything in our power
to secure Col. Hoyl's election.
Had the convention picked the
three counties over it could not
have selected a purer and better
man, and we have no doubt that
Col, Hoyl will receive the support
of every true and loyal Democrat
in the district. There may be
threats to put out an Independent
candidate upon the part of few
Of those who are accustomed on
such occasions to cry wolf" but
it will amount to nothing in the
end, and Col. Hoyl will be elected
by a sweeping majority. The nom
ination was not of Col. Hoyrs seek
ing. Indeed, he did not expect or
desire it; it came without the ask
ing, and under these circumstances
he is doubly entitled to the vote
and support Of every Democrat in
the district. Col. Hoyl will make
us Senator of whom the 11th
district may feel proud, and he
will discharge his duties not in the
interest of any particular county,
but as a representative of the
whole district.

A Bic Barhecne.

AT the Daniel school house, in
the 18th district, on last Friday,
was one of the best conducted and
most successful barbecues Of the
kind ever held in the county. 1t
was the occasion Of Mr.. A. J..
Green's school examination, and q
success in every particular. There
were some $50 or 800 people upon
the grounds and they all enjoyed
1t to the utmost extent. The
patrons were delighted with the
progress Of their children and they
all met on that day at the school
house to show their high appre-
citation of their young teacher. Mr.
Green has shown himself to be one
of the best teachers in the county
and his patrons and pupils, too,
are anxious for him to teach again.
AS an evidence ofMr. Green's pop
ularity, his pupils presented him,
on last Friday, six large iced pound
cakes, one of which he was kind
enough to present to the JOURNAL.
The examination of pupils was
creditable in the highest degree
and reflects no little honor upon
the teacher.

The Military Supper.

The supper last Friday night in
Harris new building was quite a
success, both socially and fnan-
cially The object of the supper
was to aid in raising funds to buy
uniform for our new military
company. The amount raised ex-
ceeded the expectation of the most
sanguine, beng Sl05. The hall
was beautifully decorated and the
supper all that one could wish.
Miss Doodle Kendrick won the cake
as being the most popular young
lady in the city, which brought
$3.50. Other cakes were rai1led
at fair prices. Too much can not
be said in praise Of the ladies, for
it was due to their untiring efforts
that the supper was made SO fine a
success.

lll-natured, seody-looking negro

ing title that means absolutely
nothing.
This brings US to remark that,
after all, there is no title Of re-
spect which will SO universally Sc
cure the esteem Of men as that al
ways employed by the lamented
Hill It is said OF Mr.. Hill
that during his entire public
life he was never known to ad-
dress a gentleman by any other
title than that of "lir.' And we
would now insist that there be a
reformation upon this line. Let
the wornout, threadbare, much
abused title OF "Professor" have a
rest, and let every gentleman,
whether he be school-teacher, law
yer or preacher, be addressed by
that much more exalted and re-
spectful title Of Mr." What say
our contemporaries? Shall we
have reform or not?
