MANS TRUE CHARACTER.
In Most Instances it is Called Forth
Only by Great Emergencies.

Great emergencies call forth the
great soul. War in the twinkling
of an eye turns village drunkards
and pettifogging lawyers into gen.
erals and statesmen. Love trans
forms Cymon from brute into a
man. Necessity makes Shakes
peare a dramatist; accident reveals
Scott his true powers. The most
commonplace men and women
have passed through the FOOLS par
adise of love, when they were
divine beings worshiping divinity.
and in that FOOLS paradise they for
brief moment found their true
selves, saw deep into the soul of
their consort. That fitting dream
was in truth an awakening, the
brief opening of the spiritual eye.
When the world OF facts has
passed away, our dreams may re-
main. The man of common sense
asks for realities, the poet knows
that only illusions are true. Look
you, the man whom you hate, are
there not women who worship him,
children who look up to him? Who
sees the true man-you who hate
him, or they who love him? Love
is divine delight; it reaches out
over and around its object into the
illimitable; it is a part of the over
soul of the infinite, Of God.
Hatred is painful. 1t strains and
racks the body, it blinds the vision,
it makes man conscious of his
mortal limitations. Glove sees the
virtues that are of the soul; hatred
only the diseases of the skin"
t"All men have their faults, and
stealing was Bill's," said weep
ling widow over the corpse of a
desperate shot in attempted bur-
glary. And grotesque, ludicrods
as the expression may seem, she
was right. She knew that not IN
the robber, the law-breaker, the
outcast, did the real man shine
forth, but in those rarer moods OF
kindliness and generosity when he
was the true friend and husband
Perhaps when two enemies, who
have refused to see any good ir
each other nthis earth, meet here
after in another world free from
the muddy vesture of decay which
clogs their vision here, the first
Thought of each will be: 'Is this
the beautiful soul that l maligned
and ated?"-Lippincott's Maya

MIDDLE-AGED MEN

There are many at the age Of 30 to co who
are troubled with too frequent excavations Of
the bladder, often accompanied by slight
ing of the system in manner the patient can
not account for. On examining the urinary
deposits, ropy sediment will often be found.
and sometimes small particles Of albumen
will appear. or the color will be of thin,
whitish hue, again changing to q dark, torpid
appearance. There are many men who die Of
this difficulty, ignorant of the cause, which IS
the second stage Of seminal weakness. DIR.

WORK on TIE CANAL BREAK.
Several Days Before water WIZ DC
Turned gn-Ptpes Broken.

Tn the early part OF Christmas week It
was expected that the break in the canal
opposite the Old pump-house would
have been sufficiently mended for the
water to be turned into the canal last
night, 30 that the GalIego Mills, Trede-
gar Works, and other places dependent
upon this as their source OF motive
power might be started up this morning.
Such. however. has not been the case,
and 1t will be several days at least be-
fore the water can be turned in.
The delay is due 10 more than one
cause. In the first place the weather
was very uniavorable and much time had
TO be lost. Again. the workmen en-
countered much more crib work than
was anticipated, and it is not known even
now lust how much of this. which was
put up as a kind of trestling or frame
work when the arch under the canal was
constructed, will have TO be taken down.
1t is thought now that if there comes no
unforeseen hindrance the work can be
completed by the latter part OF the week
10 that extent that the water can be
turned in and the mills be put IN opera
ton. Work on the wall just begun
Yesterday afternoon, and with the best OF
winter weather it cannot be completed
under several weeks.
The city hands were engaged yesterday
mending the pipes under the bed OF the
forebay which were broken by the stone
wall falling on them. These pipes are
used to convey the water from the pump
house to the Old reservoir. OF them
there are four S-inch ones, one 24-inch
one, and two 12-lnch ones. All OF them
were broken except the two last named,
which are in front OF the arch.

INNER LIFE.
THE PERAmBULATING PEDDLER.
Nc Must Pay HIS License in Money
or RuHer ConseQMences.


Information has been received IN the
city that three peddlers were indicted,
tried, and convicted in Middlesex Coun-
tv Court on tine 28th and 29th of Decem-
Der for pedding without license.
At the request of the Court and Com
monwealths Attorney the Hon. IL. Il.
Pollard appeared for the Commonwealth,
and the defendants were represented by
Hon. A. b. Evans and Judge l.. G. Bris-
tow. The defence made was that de
PENDANTS had rendered coupons, which
were refused. The attorneys represent
ing the Commonwealth insisted that a
tender would not avail, the Supreme
Court having decided in the late habedS-
corpus cases that tender did not pay
the tax, and it being provided by the act
of March 4, 1886, that no person should
pursue any business or calling Tor which
a license is required until the tax is paid.
The Court took their view OF the law
and so instructed The jury.
The defendants were fined SlOO each
ani their goods were Immediately levied
ON to pay the fine and costs. ..
1t is thought that this decision will be
followed in other counties, and the multi
tudes of peddlers now perambulating the
country districts will have to leave the
State or pay their licenses in money.
In the course of the trial it was de-
veloped that the peddlers only paid out
sl5 each to certain attorneys in Rich
mond. who furnished them with an atiida-
Wit that they (the attorneys) had rendered
coupons for them, which were refused.
These cases will all be taken before
Judge Bond on writs Of habeGs corpus.
The indications are that the General
Assembly will, for this year, put the IL
cense on foot peddlers at $500 and on
peddlers who carry their goods in vehi'
cles at $500 each.

Some OF the Gases Disposed or Yes
ierday.


William Green was before the Police
Court Yesterday morning charged with
unIavfully and feloniously cutting and
wounding T. j. Hayes with a knife, with
intent to kill. Green's arrest was no.
ticed in Sundays Dispatch, and as then
stated the trouble occurred Saturday
night in Drew's shoemaking establish
ment, where both of the parties work.
The evidence failed to shoY that Green
was more in fault than Hayes. Hayes
threw a lap-board at Green. and the two
grappled. During the scuffle bench on
which were knives, pieces Of glass, and
other sharp things was knocked down,
and it was more probable, Justice Rich
ardson thought, that Hayes was cut by
falling against something on this bench
than that Green cut him. Green's head
was as badly hurt as Hayess.
The case was dismissed.
Amanda Haywood was charged with
being drunk and with stealing a pin,
handkerchief, and one pair OF gloves
from Boney Moore. On the former
charge she was fined 81 and costs the
trial of the latter was continued until
January 10th, owing to the sickness OF
Mr.. Moore's sister, who, he said, is the
principal witness The accused was a
miserable-looking specimenof humanity,
and wore an old battered straw hat and
her clothes were threadbare.

Everett, was continued until Thursday.
Lee, who was very i'll, has been sent to
