Springer is wholly false. No man ever said or
pretended, in Colfax county, that the man who
was arrested and put in Jail in Springer had
anything to do with the assault upon the sheriff.
Equally false is the statement that his associates
attempted to release him from the Jail The
fact is, that one man came TO Springer to
see the prisoner, in response to telegram
He was walking towards the Jail alone in broad
daylight when he was fired upon from the inside
of the jail, and he fell dead his body riddled
with bullets. He was so close to the guns that
the explosion set fire to his clothing. friend

at his dead body was fired upon from the jail and

bodies lay, and while trying to put out the fire
was also fired upon and killed. So far from Mr.
Dorsey having no connection with these feuds.
it is known that the sheriff who was shot was
elected to his Office by means of Dorsey's infu-

In view of the foregoing facts, it seems to me
that the country should be congratulated upon
the removal from Office of such man as Judge
Vincent has shown himself to be.

both guest and company had departed.

SUIT FOR FOUR MILLIONS.
The BOndholders of the H., E. & st. L. Rail-

A cross bill in the case of Isaac T. Burr
against the Louisville, Evansville & St. Louis
Railway Company was filed in the United States
Court, yesterday, by the Mercantile Trust Com
pany, Of New York, and Noble G. Butler,
trustee of the first and second mortgage bonds is
sued by the railway company. In 1882 the con-
construction of the line between Lou
isvie and st. Louis was completed.
In June, 1881, the company issued bonds for
$3,00O 00O due at the end of forty years, with in
terest at the rate of 6 per cent, payable semi
annually. A mortgage on the road to secure the
bonds was given. In September, 1882 bonds to
the amount of 81, 600 more bearing per
cent interest, were issued, and second mort
gage was given. The payment of the interest
has been defaulted, and, in consequence, the
cross-bill filed by the bond trustee asks for de-
cree of foreclosure and the sale of the road.
Isaac It. Burr, Henry Refs and Robert A. Watts
have mortgage for 5000, 900 on the Evansville.
Rockport & Eastern division of the two, and
Watts has mortgage for So, 000 900 on the entire

debtedness and property of the road is asked,
and also that it shall be continued in the hands
of George L. Evans, as receiver for the benefit of
the plaintiffs.

Paradise, the Archdeacon said is the least
read by the multitude of the three poems, but to
the student it is the dearest of all If one would
feel the magic influence of the poem one must
battle in light one must clothe in light YOU
must be children of the light, one must gaze on
the light as with the eagles undazzled eye. For
here Dante leaves earth entirely behind him.
Dante at last is suffered to gaze for one instant
upon the supernal glory of God, the Trinity in
Unity, seeing as in one dazzling fash which
melts his memory as the sunlight melts the
snow, terrible orb of three different colors in
which the one seems to reflect the other. Speech
fails. The waxen wings of poetry are melted
and drop useless.
Dapte's vision has in it moral lesson worthy
to be pondered long for it is faithful allegory
OF spiritual torment certain to be visited on all
those who forsake Gods law The moral hell
and moral heaven consist not only in places of
torment and beatltude, but in tempers; not
only in flames or golden cities, but in phases of
the SOUL The object is to hold up before men
the purity of Gods moral government; to arouse
them to sense of the mystery of their state; to
point them to the beauty of the Christian tenn
per; to teach them the fulness of the grace of
God; to bring the human soul to a conception of
the possibility of rising step by step into JOY
not unimaginabe by man, and yet of higher
order than the ideal of earth. His subject is not
so much the state of souls after death, about
which Dante knew just as much and just as little
as you or |. be cause he knew just as much and
just as little as has been revealed to US by God
He does not mean to describe a kind of hell in
which all mankind has ceased to believe as re-
atty but behind this he to give the full YER
ity of a moral hell. His subject is not so much
the state Of souls after death as that man is rem
dering himself LIABLE by the exercise of free WILL
to the rewards and punishments of justice. 1t is
solely by realizing such truths that any one of
US can attain the ideal which Dante wanted to
picture forth before us and help US to attain
the ideal Of one who in boyhood is gentle. and
obedient, and modest; in youth is temperate,

SpurgeOn and Huxley as Smokers.
Mr.. Spurgeon once declared boldly that
if anybody could show him in the Bible
the command Thou shalt not smoke"
he was ready to keep it. II fnd," he
said, in famous discourse in the Taber-
nacle-fI find ten commandments, and
it's as much as 1 can do to keep them;
and have no desire to make them into
eleven or twelve. Why, man may
think it sin to have his boots BACKED.
Well, then, let him give it up and have
them whitewashed. I wish to say that
Pm not ashamed of anything whatever
that do, and don't feel that smoking
makes me ashamed, and therefore mean
to smoke to the glory of God.''
For years Professor Huxley, like Charles
Lamb, toiled after tobacco ''as some men
after virtue" At certain debate on
smoking among the members of the
British association he told the story of
his early struggle in a way which utterly
puts the anti-tobacconists to confusion:
"For forty years of my ife," he said,
''tobacco had been a deadly poison to me.
Loud cheers from the anti-tobacconists.
In my youth, as a medical student, tried
to smoke. In vainl at every fresh attempt
my insidiOus foe stretched me PROSTATE
on the floor. Repeated cheers.1 en-
tered the navy. Again tried to smoke,
and again met with defeat. 1 hated to-
bacco. could almost have lent nay sup
port to any institution that had for its
object the putting of tobacco smokers to
death. lVociferous cheering A few
years ago I was in Brittany with some
friends. We went to an inn. They
began to smoke. They looked very hap
Ply, and outside it was very dark and dis
NAL. t thought I would try cigar.
[Murmurs. I did so. LGreat expecta-
tons. 1 smoked that cigar-it was de-
licious! lGroans.] From that moment 1
was changed man; and I now feel that
smoking in moderation is a comfortable
practice, and is productive of good. dis
may and confusion of tae anti-tobacco-
nists. Roars of laughter from the
smokers. There is no more hrrm
in a pipe than there is in a cup of
tea. You may poison yourself by drink
ing too much green tea, and kill yourself
by eating foo many beefsteaks. For my
own part, 1 consider that tobacco, in
moderation, is sweetener and equalizer
of the temper" Total rout of the anti
tobacconists, and complete triumph of the
smokers.
