The III Dow murder case was the
subject of discourses il most Of
the pulpits in Charleston last Sun
day. The Rev. DR.. Vedder, of the
Old Huguenot Protestant church,
among other remarks abiding to
the verdict said:
whether or not the judgment
therereudered was technically wal =
ranted-and it was reached by some
at least-of unimpeachable integ-
rity; some, at least, think they
were-but who would not know
ingly be unjust or untrue, yet there
cannot be doubt that very large
and influential proportion of our
community and
WELL NIGH OUR WHOLE LAND,
hold 1t to have been there demon
strated that Charleston holds moth
ing more cheap than human life;
that truth has been stricken down
IN what should have been It's very
citadel; that one whose loss was q
pubic calamity has been stealthi-
ly done to death under circumstan-
ces that sicken the heart which
hears the recital Of them, whilst
the wanGon and worse than worth
less slayer goes forth MT only
nnscathed of penalty, but applaud
ed by some as well-doer. This is
the verdict of a very extended and
out-spoken public sentiment"
Rev. DR.. Charles Colesworth
Pinckney, rector of the Grace Epis,
copal church, said
That human life has been Ia
ken by violence is an acknowled ed
fact, and the tribunals OF justice
have no word of censure for the
deed. The slayer is restored To
his place without condemnation of
any sort, without fine, or any lie
gal dlsapproval OF the wrong. The
murderer pollutes the land beyond
all other evil deeds, and leaves an
lndellible stain in Gods sight.
Nor can this blood stain be oblit-
Grated until it is washed out with
the blood of him that shed it. Mer-
cy TO the murderer is cruelty to
tie community. Every deed of
violence, whether murder, man
slaughter, or mob law, becomes the
seed OF future crime, unless re-
pressed by the majesty of the law"

Why Artists Are Desirous of Having Their
 Work " Hung on the Line"
 Most persons who frequent picture galleries have heard the expression ''hung on the line, and among the number there are doubtless some few who have rather vaguely wondered as to the meaning. If there are any such it may afford them some satisfaction to know that a picture Is so spoken of when it is hung on the level of the eyes of the spectator They are said to be '.sSied when they are placed so high that it is difficult for one standing upon the floor to comfortably bring them within the range of vision, and the meaning of this term many an artist is familiar with to his sorrow. It will be readily understood that a picture placed either too high or too low down upon the wall is seen at great disadvantage, though perhaps the latter position is the more prefer able of the two, for the reason that if 1t be of any considerable size it can not De placed so low down but what the top of 1t will come somewhere near the proper height, and the whole of it may he easily seen by stepping back few paees, but there is practically no limit 10 the space overhead, and occa- sionallF tt some of the crowded ex- hibitions apieture a gets placed 50 high that it might as well not be shown at all.
 Aside from the comfort of the spec tators, pictures lose materially by being looked at from any point of view but one directly in front of them. The lines governing the perspective of any pictorial representation are only seen in their proper relation to each other when the eyes are directed soaarely upon the canvas and focused upon the spot which forms the van ishing point of it's principal planes. Viewed in any other manner the drawing appears more or less weak, and iu place of imPressins the be- holder with the boldness and relief of the various objects represented. it IS sumcs the appearance of fiat sur face, and the effect ot perspective is then very much lessened. save only as it is sustained by the different weights of color and tone.
 Al things considered. it is small wonder that when an artist has ex- pended his best efforts in the produc- ton of picture and has finally sent 1t forthto run the gauntlet Of public opinion and to be criticised and ex- amined along with=the best works of i-eompeers, ii k small wonder in- deed that he is desirous Of having il ..hHng on tho ne.a-Pittsbuggh Dis. patch
