IN the Charleston News and Courier
ofyesterday appeared an editorial, un-
der the caption, ''Mr. Blaine's New
Party" in which reference was made to
Mr.. R. A. Lynch of fthis city, who has
recently come into unexpected promi-
nence as candidate for appointment
as United States District Attorney.
Mr.. Lynch announced last night
that he should make certain portions
ofthe editorial referred to the basis for
libel suit against the News and Cour-
ier for s25, 900 damages.
The suit is to be brought in the Cir
cult Court of Charleston County, but
Mr.. Lynch, at last accounts, had not
secured counsel, but intimated an in
tention Of securing as his legal repre-
sentative some member of the Charles
ton bar.
The paragraph in the editorial to
which Mr.. Lynch especially takes
exception and upon which he will chief
ly base his suit for libel is that con-
tanning the expression of belief thatin
the course of his professional life he had
never pleaded case in court.

A Moral Picture Of London,

Cardinal Manning recently delivered
a remarkable discourse, in which he
gave a gloomy picture of London, and
the general disintegration of human So
ciety under the demoralizing agencies
Of the present day. Among other
things he said:
London is a desolation beyond that
of any other city in the Christian
world. Four millions of human be-
ings, of whom 2,OOO,O 900 have never set
their foot in any place of Christian
worship; and among these 100000
God only knows how few have been
baptized, how few have been born
again of water and the Holy Ghost.
London is a wilderness. 1t is like
Rome of old-a pool into which all the
nations of the world were continually
flowing. Such is London at this day.

ofthis part of Dakota equals that of
Tuesday. In this County the losses are
much less than in the Counties West.
Half a dozen houses were burned and
many settlers lost their barns, some
stock and large quantity of hay and
grain. The wind was from fifty to
sixty miles an hour and sent the burn
ing embers over the ploughed ground
and fire-breaks several rods wide, set
ting fire to everything in their course.
The fire came up so rapidly that settlers
had only time to save themselves,
leaving theis property to the mercy of
the flames. In Sully and Hughes
Counties 100000 worth of property has
been destroyed. Near HighmoEe Miss
Sweeney was burnedto death, and Teas,
St. Lawrence Mr.. Babcock perished in
the flames.

THE WOMEN WIN IN KANSAS,
Two Towns Elect Female Governments
Democratic Victory in Leayenworth.

OsKALoosA, KANSAS, April 3.-The
Oskalossa idea is still extant. After
vigorous fight the female candidates
for city offices won the day by sweeping
majorities. At Cottonwood Falls, Kan
sas, the ladies were also triumphant,
Mrs. Minnie Morgan being elected
Mayor with all the members of the
Council of her sex.
LEAENwoRTH, KAN.-The contest
for the mayoralty lay between D. R.
Anthony, Republican, and L. NJ,
Hacker, Democrat. Susan B. Antho-
ny, sister of the Republican candidate,
worked heroically for him but Hacker
was elected by about 25o majority.
Nearly 1000 women voted during the
day, most Of them casting their ballots
for Hacker. A man was stabbed at
one of the precincts and woman at
another became involved in wordy
war.

We therefore conclude that the Won
dcrs of Spiritualism are purely nervous
phenomena. It is said that Mediums
invariably receive a nervous shock
before exercising their peculiar powers,
their eyes sunk, and their faces assume
Il pallor as of death. They are nearly all
OF defective physical organization; and
frequent performances soon exhaust
the nervous energies Of the operator.
Some Of them have dropped dead im-
mrdiately after their most celebrated
lrats. If you contemplate becoming a
medium, provided you have little
enough nerve energy to be one, you
had better take first a life-insurance
policy. Another remarkable fact is
that mediums are either subjects Of
epilepsy, themselves, or epilepsy is in
their families. 1t is also interesting to
know that the raps caused by the Fox
sisters, was discovered by physicians to
be due to the rapid dislocations and
restorations of the knee joint and other
joints. 1t only remains to say, there
fore, that there is not single pheno-
;nenon Of Spiritualism that cannot be
ACCOUNTED for on physiological and
psychological principles. And the day
is not distant, when like the ancient
oracles of Delphos, the ecstatic reve-
lations of Catholic and Protestant
Missionaries, the dancing mind of the
middle ages; and a host Of other super
stitions and epidemic deluMons, Splri-
tualism will enjoy an undisturbed
oblivion.

Redly the freight shines through the
room,
Chasing away all the shadow and
gloom;
Light-hearted children are pratting in
glee;
Father is as happy as can be,
For the wife and mother who suffered
solong,
Is getting her health back and soon
will be strong,
And who is so happy as she is tonight,
AS she thinks of the shadow that's
taken its flight
the shadow of disease that darkens so
many homes, and makes the life of
wife and mother one OF terrible suffer
ing. How pleased We are toknow that
at last remedy has been found for all
those delicate arrangements and weak
nesses peculiar to women. It comes to
cherries homes with "glad tidings OF
great joy" DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-.
scription has done for women what no
other remedy has done, or can do, and
it is not to be wondered at that women
who have been cured by it are so en-
thusiastic in it's praise. 1t is the only
medicine for women sold, by druggists
under positive guarantee from thu
manufacturers of satisfaction, OF
money returned.

Catarrh, when chronic, becomes
very offensive. 1t is impossible to be
otherwise healthy, and, at the same
time, afflicted with catarrh. This dis
agreeable disease, in its most obstinate
and dangerous forms, can be cured by
the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla.

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Con
tains Mercury,

AS Mercury will surely destroy the
sense of smell and completely derange
the whole system when entering it
through the mucus surfaces. Such
articles should never be used except on
prescriptions from reputable physicians
as the damage they will do are ten
fold to the good you can possibly de-
rive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, o., contains no mercury, and
is taken internally, and acts directly
upon the blood and mucus surfaces of
the system. In buying Halls Catarrh

Another Letter From Mexico.
New LERApO, MEXICO,

Al %i SI 4oI 4SO1'
Well, like Mexico better every day.
While feel complimented on my pro-
motion, like running better. 1 told
the master mechanic that 1 preferred
the road to the round-house, but he
says am giving better satisfaction than
any one they have ever had, and was
doing work with less expense, and he
insisted on my keeping the JON.
Labor is, or some OF it, very unsatis-
factory here. I have Americans,
Mexicans and negroes, and the latter
is very poor labor in machine shop.
To their credit, must say they are
tenfold better than the Mexican. A
few days ago I had orders to fit an en-
gine up at once to 60 out. 1 told them
to hurry up. This answer was 1--WE
are in no hurry" aud I had to dis
charge three at one time.
think will come home on busi-
ness trip in May, but can't positively
say yet.
The weather is very changeable here
now. 1t is now a. M, and it is 20 de-
grees colder than it was at a. m., and
possibly will be very hot till evening. 1
can now begin to feel the change.
| would like to tell you of some Of
the cities I have been in since I have
been here, but am poor writer and
it would require good one to describe
them. Among many smaller towns, /
have been in Monterey, and been all
over it. 1t is a beautiful place, especially
on principal plaza. At night when
lighted up by electric lights, it is a
grand sight. Nearly all the houses are
built of stone, brick or clay. There are
but few frame houses, as timber is very
scarce in this country. Monterey has
a population of about $4,000. and of
that mum Der about one hundred are
Americans.
l have also been in Saltillo, a city of
about 81, 1000 inhabitants. I cannot say
much of this place as it is located about
one mile from the depot, but from what
1 have seen of it, 1T reminds me of
Chattanooga Tenn, being almost en-
tirely surrounded by mountains or very
high peaks.
San Luis is another beautiful city of
about 5000 inhabitants, and is also in
and among the mountains. I did not
get over it enough to give a descrip-
ton of it, but saw it was beautifully
located and found a good many Ameri-
cans in it.
But the largest is the City of Mexico.
Here is place to feast the eyes upon.
I can't attempt description of what it
is, and what saw there. 1t certainly
has the appearance of an ancient city,
but has some magnificent modern
buildings. It's population is about 2OO,-
600. Two thirds Spainards and the
other third are people of all nations
and from all parts of the world.
l have been in many other small
cities and towns and if was able to
write a description of them, I would
not know where to begin, but when
get home I can tell you a little about
some of them, as l think am better
talker than l was when l left old South
Carolina. / can begin to talk spanish
pretty we'll.
Well, here is my mail, andamong it I
find The Herald and News. If you
could only see how eagerly I ponder
overits columns! Allis news to ME, and
I can't write any more till 1 read it.
