JEFFERSON Cry, Feb. 15.-The
Senate passed bill authorizing Re-

minors to marry in certain cases
without consent of parents or guar
dians as provided by section $3.50
Revised Statutes; also a bill requir-

each administrator, executor, guar

estate and the value of such estate

The Senate INDUCED in a little

troduced resolution to prevent bees
from running at large and a good
many speeches we're made upon it.
The House also took turn. A bill
giving women the right to vote in
certain cases was reported unfavora-
bly, from the committee but a mi
nority report was submitted and
adopted by the House and placed
on the calendar. Then some good
Democrats moved to reconsider,
which was carried, and then the
whole thing was indefinitely post
poned by a vote of IS to 48. A num-
Der of bills were engrossed and few
OF not much Importance passed.
The Governor to-day returned with
his signature the bill taking Audrain

THE SOUL INVALUABLE.
Although it is Given In Exchange For
Money ana Power.

Coleridge said: "Elther we have
an immortal soul, or we have not.
If we have not, we are beasts; the
first and wisest of beasts it may be,
but still beasts. We only differ in
degree, and not in kind, just as the
elephant differs from the slug. But
by the concession of the material
lists, we are not of the same kind as
beasts; and this also We say from
our own consciousness. Therefore,
lnethinks, it must be the possession
of a soul within US that makes the
difference" Then If we have soul
"whaS does it pro6teth man to
gain the whole world and lose his
own souI," admitting it possible to
gain the whole world3 1t destines
him to go below heaven-that is all.
A man will say sometimes that he
never did anything real wrong-that
he is hardly a sinner. 1t is said
that people who f1agrantly pretend to
anything are generally the reverse
of that which they pretend to. If
we can secure money at the loss of
our souls We'll do it. Here is a
truth said by E. P. Whipple: "We
all originally came from the woods;
it is hard to eradicate from any of
us the old taste for the tattoo and
the war paint; and the moment that
money gets into our pockets it some
how or another breaks out in orna-
ments on our person, without always
giving refinement to our manners. F"
We think if we can get money we
may have authority over our fellow
man; this is not wholly an untruth,
for the capitalists are predominating
over the poor. But it is not always
the case that authority is pleasant
and submission painful. Command
is anxiety; obedience is ease"
