4 Case of Great Hardship Developed at At

A sample of the expressions to which the
mountain people OF Georgia are subjected by
the revenue officers, SAYS an Atlanta tele-
gram to the st. Louis Globe Democrat, has just
been brought to light in the United States
court before Judge Bosrmau. A distressed
looking man, X. VI. Stanley, was put on the
stand charged with violating the internal
revenue laws. Stanley hailed from Lump
kin county, aud said be was too poor to hire
a lawyer, aud therefore went to trial without
counsel Deputy Marshal Copeland testified,
but said nothing to lead anyone to suppose
Stanley was a iawbreaker. Then another
witness testified, and he also knew nothing
about the prisoner.
A thiri witress went on the stand With
Ike result, and then Judge BOarman, wax
ing wroih, said, with emphasis: great
wrong has been done this man. / think il
is criminal.
THU, turning to the prisoner. he asked:
How long have you been in jaiIF'
Pour weeks

can't say who is responsible, but do say it

Then, hooking al the prisoner again, the
judge said: You are discharged, sir: am
sorry can say no more; / am sorry you
have no redress You can go.''
The prisoner 2icked no bis hat aud zmbled

ETANGELIZING AFRICA.

Scarcely less adventurous and perhaps al
together as impracticable as an expedition to
the north pole, is the self-supporting Afr-
can mission which Bishop TAYLOR is seeking
to establish. 1t is highly probable that the
noble army of martyrs will soon include the
ffty-three persons, thirteen of them children,
who sailed from New York little over a
week ago to establish the mission projected
by the bishop. Our hearts go with them, but
we cannot give them the countenance Of our
judgment, Bishop TAYLoR's project is to
land his first party at the Portuguese port Of
St. Paul dc Lnando, and thence proceed TO
Doudo, trading port on the CoanZa river,
about 30 miles from the coast. From
Dondo missions are to be established every
hundred miles until they meet other mis-
sions to be established on q similar plan,
starting from the east coast by way of Fam
best.
The missionaries are provided with tents
for shelter, and are expected to subsist on
the beasts and birds they can shoot
and the fish they can catch.
The missionaries first gone out carry with
them an abundance of cotton cloth, no end
of iewsharps and several thousand phonetic
ally printed Testaments. 1t was wise thought
to have the Testaments printed phoneticaliy,
for our experience at home teaches US how
difficult it is to get even the enlightened eau
casian to read a testament printed in the ordi-
nary style, and it would be an uphill bus
ness to get native Jahgar to take it in a
course of study.
African feyers and certain other peculiar
tiles of that region make it dangerous to life,
so the Bishop has wisely provided for short
and sharp campaign. w. see that his ad-
vance guard carries rifles. II the cotton
aud the iewsharps fail to win the confidence
of the bl0od-thirsty tribes who know no
other political economy than to kill a stran-
ger and theu eat him, the Bishop will find a
deal of moral suasion in the use Of gum
powder, and the rifles will doubtless prove
wonderfully efficient in the work of evangel-
ization. Judging from past missionary ex-
perIence in that benighted country the
Bishop may yet find that more rifles and
fewer Testaments will be needed.

ASSASSINATION or THE DYNAMITE
CHIEF.

A genuine sensation has been created in
New York by desperate woman shooting
O'DoNovAN RossA-an individual who has
acquired more notoriety than distinction. A
good deal of prominence has recently been
given Rosa because of his supposed connec-
ton with the dypamiters who have been
creating such havoc in English quarters. A
narrow circle Of admirers seemed disposed TO
make hero of the dynamite chieftain, when
in reality,in the estimation of all law abiding
people, he was regarded as little less than an
outlaw and murderer. The insane utterances
he had been giving expression to stamped
him as bad man. His profession of identity
with the Irish cause secured for him chari-
table forbearance that might not otherwise
have been extended. In reality, however, he
was the worst enemy the cause Of Ireland had
in this country. His persistent endeavors
to parade himself as a champion and would
be leader of the Irish agitation, had the effect
of weakening the sympathies of others and
cooling q sentiment which was naturally
aroused in behalf Of brave, generous ma
ton Of people suffering under gross tyranny.
The tragic fate which has Overtakeu him is
suggestive OF Soomon's wisdom, "Whosoever
diggeth pit shall fall into It," The sdvO-
cate of assassination falls a victim to an
assassin. However much the act by which
he is stricken down may be deprecated. the
fate OF O'D1SovAN Rosa will excite but little
pity. The woman who shot him, while dis
posed to be rcticent and play the part CT Il
heroine, in all probability belongs to the
crank tribe, and has an aspiration TO join
GUITEAu, an aspiration that she is entitled to
realize In full fruition.

nevertheless II is q needless outlay. We have
no need OF an organized militia. The state
