Thn Eclectic Magazine.

The July Eclectic, which IS now on our
book-tabie, presents many features OF inter-
est. The place Of honor IS held by an ar
ticle, written by Mr.. Gladstone, on the
great novel Robert Elsmere," now exciting
so much controversy. The battle of belief
finds IN the great English statesman most
sturdy upholder Of religious orthodoxy.
W. H. Mallock contributes a paper entitled
Conservatism and the Diffusion of Proper
ty," discussing the land and labor question
of Great Britain. Mr.. F. ". H. Myers con-
tributes en- appreciat;ve paper on Matthew
Arnold" A pleasant sketch of great pain
ter and his surroundings IS found IN 'ln
the Studio of Carolus Duran, and all read
ers will be interested in the article entitled
Prince Bismarck and the German Reich
stag" There is a capital paper, racy and
instructive, on 1.-The English Gentry" from
BncA.cooGs, and the discussion Of a very
interesting question is found under the
hesd Of Gentlemen EnigraDtis." One OF
the most suggestive articles in the number
is that on "The Dislocations Of Industry,
by William Sraart, in which the reader will
fnd clear and searching study Of the dan
gers of our modern industrial system. Rev.
DR.. William Wright makes known to US
curious chapter in the history Of religious
bigos7y in the story of "Lassere's Version
OF the Bible" and how it was suppressed.
Among ether specially interesting articles
may be called to those entitled
"On dates" "In the Dark Continent" and
"Gluck;" the latter being a sketch Of the
great musical composer who anticipated il
his opera most Of the important reforms
claimed for Wagner. A very noteworthy
article, too, is that on Heinrich Heine,
the material for which is largely ant bio
drawn from posthumous papers
of the great establishments This
number contains q beautiful steel eagrav-
ing, "Leghorn, as frontispiece. As this
number is the commencement of new

TFrom the Sumter Advanced
Alleged Drunkenness on the Benc!


The report is abroad that Alorich, who
presided at the recent term of court in Sam
ter. was more or less intoxicated during the
entize term. The papers Of that town how
ever, have aota word to say about it. II
the report is true, AID the authority for it
seems reliable, the Sumter papers hare
shown their dereliction Of duty by failing
TO expose it 7smmonsc!As Formers Friend
AS to ourselves and our duty in the
premises we will say that during the recent
term Of Court here it was a matter Of COM
moa rumor that Judge Aldrich vas intoxi-
Gated on the bench. but on account Of the
illness of Mr.. Darr and the strain the force
in the Office was under in consequence, We
did not have the time to investigate the
matter and we did not care to publish so
serious charge when to rs it was only
rumo-. AS to dereGction Of 6aty we refer
to our record in the columns of our paper
to prove that we have always tried to do our
duty plainly and fearlessly. We have since
been informed that the Grand Jury cousid-
cred very seriously the question Of publish
ing in their presentment q protest against
Judge Aldrich's drinking on the bench.
Such an unusual course they were advised
by some Of our best people, because the ru-
NOR above stated could not be proved re-
liable and has remained only rumor up to
this time. We do not desire to publish a
Ebellous article on the strength ofa mere
rumor. We leave that to the Friend.
Referring to the r1mor Of Judge Aldrich's
drinking on the bench during the recent
term of Court here. the BishopVille Enter
prise says it has positive proof that such
was the case and that it was told ''that it
was only with reference to his age and for
mer record that an indignation meeting
was not called"
We never heard anything about the in
dignat:on meeting, but we take this oc-
casion to say that if a judge so far abuses
MS Office as to be intoxicated On the bench
'.his age and former record" should not be
allowed to outweigh the other grave offence,
| but he should be held to strict account.
There should be no white-washing done for
any body.

The editor Of this paper is an old
fogy, whose views on certain subjects
aSs utterly worthless and entirely
wrong: For instance, he thinks that
when body of men in the most sys-
ssnatic manner, with thorough or
gsaaation, and for a large number of
years, hare formed a ''trust" for rob-
bing the pauper graveyards of dead
bodies, and palming those bodies of
as newly dead bodies, and reburying
them, with Christian rites, with weep
5ns WIDOWS, sorrowiDg friends, and
all s,sSa; and all this impious, ghoul-
Ike, Sesecrating work done for the
puseese of swindling insurance com
passss; and after successfully swim
ding those companies for years to
the amount Of nearly hundred thous-
ana dollars: and after great exertions
and the expense Of thousands OF
dollars to convict these swindlers:
then to make the maximum punish
ment only five years, this old fogy
editor thinks is q travesty upon justice,
and an invitation to commit crime.
We think it is wrong to hold court
on Sunday; for a judge to be drunk
on the bench; to punish great crimes
with little penalties; and to punnish
poor ignorant negro for small crime
with a long term in the peniteatiary,
80 as to get kind of equilibrium Of
Justice. We think it is wrong 10,
money and influence to override law
and justice and night, while the poor
and ignorant suffer their full share
aad a great deal more. But then We
are old fogy in our views, not up &c
aSEanced ideas

Can't he Elected.

COLUMBUS, O., June Pin answer to the
question, 'What do you think of the Re
publican nomination? Judge Thurman
said last night: q consider it very
strong ticket. have no personal acqua'n-
tance with Gen Harrison, and thought
that Senator Sherman's nomination would
have been the strongest one, but under the
circumstances the tlcket named is probably
as strong one as could have been noml-
mated by the convention. However, do
not believe that it is stronger than its party.
and therefore do not know how 1t can be
elected"

An eclipse of the moon will occur
On the 22nd OF July, and will be more
interesting than the one of January
2Sth. The diameter of the earth's
shadow will be much larger at that
time in proportion to the diameter of
the moon, darkening the surface more
totally. It will take place at mid
night when the moon is higher in the

Clarendon county wants no prma-
~ for congressman or solicitor, and
viii instruct for convention. The
primary plan for county nominations
is all right, but when it leaves coun-
ty, and includes circuit, a district,
or a State, it becomes too cumber-
some to be of advantage Those
who desire primaries in such cases,
in almost every instance, are either
those who are weak candidates or
supporters Of weak candidates. In a
primary for solicitor or congressman,
unless held at the same time as coun-
ty primary, we doubt if there would
be third of the Democratic votes

A Woman from Austria.

- W OIAAIS@A IL " 49,
Near the village Of Filling.
dorf, in Lower Austria, lives
Maria Haas, an intelligent and
industrious woman, whose story
Of physical suffering and final
relief, as related by herself, IS
of interest 10 English women.
II was employed" she says,
'sin the work of a large farm
house. Overwork brought con
sick headache, followed by a
deathly fainting and sickness
of the stomach, until I was
unable to retain either food OF
drink. I was compelled to
take to my bed for several
weeks. Getting a little better
from rest and quiet, I sought
to do some work, but was soon
taken with 8 pain in my side,
which IN a little while seemed
to spread over my whole body,
and throbbed in my every limb.
This was followed by a cough
and shortness of breath. until
finally I could not sew, and I
took to my bed for the second,
and, as I thought, for the last
time. My friends told me that
my time had nearly come, and
that I could not live longer
than when the trees put on
their green once more. Then I
happened to get one of the Sci
gel pamphlets. | read it, and
my dear mother bought me a
bottle of SE1aEL's SYRUP,
shaker Extract of Roots)
which I took exactly according
to directions, and ! had not
taken the whole Of it before I
felt a change for the better. My
last illness began June Sd,
1882, and continued to August
9Th, when I began to take the
Syrup. Very soon I could do a
little light work The cough
left me, and I was no more
troubled in breathing. Now [
am perfectly cured; and oh,
now happy I am! / cannot
express gratitude enough for
sE1ez1's SYRUP shaker Ex-
tract of Roots). Now [ must
tell you that the doctors in our
district distributed handbills
cautioning the people against
the medicine, telling them 1t
would do no good, and many
were thereby influenced to de-
stroy the seigel pamphlets; but
now, whenever one is to be
found, it is kept like a relic.
The few preserved are Dor
rowed to read, and I have lent
mine for six miles around our
district. People have come
eighteen miles to get me to buy
the medicine for them, know
ing that it cured me, and to be
sure to get the right kind. I
know a woman who was look
ing like death, and who told
them there was no help for her,
that she had consulted several
doctors, but none could help
hei:: I told her of Seigels
Syrup, and wrote the name
down for her that she might
make no mistake. She took
my advice and the Syrup, and
now she is in perfect health,
and the people around US are
amazed. The medicine has
made such progress in our
neighborhood that people say
they don want the doctor any
more, but they take the Syrup.
Sufferers from gout who were
confined to their beds and could
hardly move a finger have been
cured by it. There is girl in
our district who caught a cold
by going through some water,
and was in bed five years with
costivenessand rheumaticpains,
and had to have an attendant
to watch by her. There was
not a doctor in the surrounding
district to whom her mother

New Thing In Stock Cars.

1 saw up at st. Charles the other day
a new thing In stock cars, which Is as
much an improvement over the old kind
as the drawing coach is over the emil
grant car. The Humane society could
not have designed a more satisfactory
convenience for the brute creation, and
with this new idea to begin, the accom-
mediation Of travelling stock will rapidly
advance to the comfortable stage. Cattle
and horses have always suffered tortures
In box cars, and 1 think every humane
man will rejoice to see endeavors made
to assist their condition on a journey.
These cars are modelled after the ordinary
open box concern 30 as 10 give plenty Of
air. The floor is heavy and slanting, 80
as to afford q drain. On top Of the car
is q tank, to which a pipe on either side
connects. These run into four iron
troughs, from which the animals can
drink fresh water at every stop, supplied
from the tanks. By turning q crank the
troughs are turned and the old water
thrown out. Above the animals heads
are two hay racks with sliding wooden
CRATES, which open and shut at the will
of the operator on top Of the car. These
are great improvements for feeding and
watering the stock, and 1t only remains
for ono genius to get the same number
Of cattle into the present car as Is the
custom and still give them room to lie
down.-A Stockman In Globe-Democrat.

A Suicide.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, May 3l.-Mrs.
John Truesdale to-day committed suicide
by drowning herself in the city reservoir,
because of her. inability to cure her hus-
band Of consumption by the Christian
science plan. Her husband is a locomo-
tive engineer, and for some time has been
hopelessly i'll of consumption. A few
months ago a man named James Reed
came to this city and set himself up as a
faith cure doctor. He persuaded Mrs.
Truesdale that he could teach her the
science, and that by means of it she could
cure her husband. Eagerly grasping at
anything which could aid Mr.. Truesdale,
the woman devoted herself to learning the
supposed cure, and when after several
months she discovered that it had no eff
feet upon her husbands disease her grief
was so great that she became insane.
There is much Indignation against Reed,
who has been advised by his friends to
leave town.

GIVING UP HOPE.
Gen. Sheridan's Condition Still
Very Low.
The Hope that He will Rally
Almost Abandoned.
DR., Lincoln's Opinion of the
Case.
Latest News of Sheridan.

WASHINGTON, May 3l.-An official
bulletin issued at 10 p. m. says:
Gen. Sheridan had another severe at
tack this afternoon. He has recovered
very imperfectly and his condition has
caused the greatest apprehension. At
the request of DIR. 0'Rielly, DIR. Pepper,
professor of clinical medicine and pro
vost of the University of Pennsylvania,
has been telegraphed for and will arrive
here about A O'Clock tomorrow morning.
Gen. Sheridan's condition has been
growing worse and worse and tonight the
hope that he would be able to rally has
well nigh been abandoned. There has
been several occurrences of heart trouble,
and each attack has apparently left him
weaker than the previous one, and it is
becoming more and more difficult to
rally him. His breathing has become
labored and heavy aud his lungs are
gradually getting more and more oede-
matous.
The presence of oedema has also been
again noticed in the legs, and this midi
Gates that the circulation OF the blood is
growing more feeble.
Gen. Sheridan remains perfectly con-
scious and rational and suffers no pain,
except that arising from difficulty i'll
breathing. The action of the heart varies
constantly. Sometimes the heart will be
acting with u good deal Of vigor, and the
next moment the whole situation will be
changed and its action will become filter
ing and weak. The circulation through
the lungs has likewise become slow and
very much embarrassed.
The general has showed a remarkable
degree of vitality and composure and has
kept up his spirits remarkably. DR..
Lincoln, who was called for consultation,
said this evening:
THE treatment..has been very successful
and | think the physicians have man
aged thescase admirably. But for the
promptness of the action of those who
have attended him he would have died
at various times during his illness. He
has been kept up so far, but it is difficult
to say how much longer it car be done.
1t is becoming more and more difficult all
the time"
3 A. M.-There is no %perceptible change
in Sheridan's conditiepsbut he appears
quite weak when awake.

Congressional Notes.

WASHINGTON, May 31.-The house
committee on judiciary to-day amended
the senate bill relative to dispositions in
the United States courts so as to require
the courts to conform to the state prac-
tice in taking those dispositions. 4 favor
able report was ordered on the senate bill
to make iuries of United States circuit
and district courts interchangeable.
The senate has adopted the conference
report on the bill creating a department
of labor and passed the bill.
The house committee on military affairs
has decided to report favorably the senate
bill to revive the rank of general of the
army for the benefit of Lieut.. Gen. Sher-
idan.
The senate committee on judiciary to-
day further considered the nomination of
Mr.. Fuller, but did not reach a con-
clusion. Another meeting will be held
later to day or tomorrow. There seems
to be no doubt that the committee will re-
port favorably on the nomination. The
delay is said to be due rather to the fear
that the committee will be accused of
haste and want of t%horoughness if it ne
elects to examine and weigh all that is
laid before it than to any special matters
which have been charged against the
nominee

Sold HIS Store TWica-

CHICAGO, May 3I.-R. G. Capel, a
druggist of DEBORAH, Ia. was arrested
yesterday by Officers Broderick and
Greenhalgh of the Central station, on a
warrant charging him with embezzlemeut
and selling mortgaged property. 1t is
alleged that he sold to an Omaha man
name Gibson n drug store at DEBORAH.
When Gibson went to take possession he
found that not only had some goods been
spirited away, but the entire stock of the
place was m%ortgaged to the lessee of the
store. When Gibson discovered this
fact he swore out a warrant for Capel's
arrest. The amount involved is said to
be about 81, 500. Justice Il. II. White
held Capel to await the arrival of Sheriff
