REWARD AND PUNISHMENT.

A writer in the Morrilton Dem
ocrat says: after a long and
due consideration Of the Bible, l
have come to this conclusion ::
Every man that will serve God
because he expects to get a
crown Of jewels and a seat in the
Kingdom, and to walk the golden
streets Of the New Jerusalem, is
an avaricious and a selfish being,
expecting large pay for doing
nothing but what he ought to do,
and is unworthy to receive any
such reward, and any man that
is such a coward that it requires
a hell to make him do his duty to
himself, his family and his fell
low man deserves punishment for
his cowardice, instead of a re-
ward for being scared into doing
right"

A DANDY PEARL.

A dispatch from Nashville to

account OF a pearl sold recent

pearl sold in Black Rock for S2,.

"Marion NJ. Ford, of Elmwood,
Tenn, is the proud owner of the
finest fresh water pearl in the
world today. tits perfectly round
and white, weighs 116grains, has
a fine luster, and is the size of a
large "ring man" boys use in
playing marbles.
"a New York man came forth
with to see Mr.. Ford to buy the
gem, but he would not price it.
He told Mr.. Ford the pearl had no
equal in the world. Mr.. Ford
paid for it the higest price ever
paid in this country for a pearl,
$4,000, and says the man could
have gotten $4,000 just as easi.

W. j. Bryan, Lincoln, Neb. :
"The attempted assassination
of the president is shock to the
entire country and he and mis-
wife are the recipients of univer.
sal sympathy. The dispatches
say that the shot was fired by an
insane man and it is hoped that
this is true, for while it is a tcrri-
BILE thing for a president to be the
victim OF the act of a maniac, il
would be even worse for him to
be fired upon by sane person,
prompted by malice or revenge.
In a republic where the people
elect their officials and can re.
move them there can be no ex-
cuse for a resort to violence. II
our president was in constant fear
OF plots and conspiracies we
would soon sink to the level OF
those nations, in which force is

NEW YORK. October S-3:33 p. M
The market developed new strength
this afternoon on many stocks which
then reached the highest prices of the
day. In the final dealings, however,
price movements became highly irreg-
ular, and while there were sensational
advances in some of the so-called jul
Nor VandeTbils. yet there were sharp
reactions in number of the leading
railroad issues, including Atchison and
Union Pacific. The close was unsettled
and considerably under the best prices
of the day. once more exemplifying the
inability Of the market to hold its ad
vanees. No new light has been shed
upon the Atchison dividend. but it is
expected possibly to be settled to-mor-
row. Notwithstanding the sharp re-
action in the price of the stock this
afternoon. the street continues to think
that the dividend viii be increased and
that the stock will sell considerably
higher in the near future.

CONFLICTING MOVEMENT

NEW YORK, October S.-The con-
flicting and varying movement of
prices in the stock market to-day
showed that speculative sentiment was
considerably unsettled. The impress
sive buying of yesterday which came
from few concentrated sources ev-
IDENTIFY made an impression on proses.
siSnal traders. They were inclined to
take the view that the waverlng move
ment of the market yesterday was an
indication of the elimination of the
downward movement. Large bear in
terests taking advantage OF raid on
leading stocks to cover their short con-
tracts. Influenced by this conviction.
there was disposition to cover snort
lines to-day. A drive against sugar
and Brooklyn Transit after the ca ly
strength unsettled this conviction, but
the bears had evidently lost their ag
gresive spirit and did not pursue their
advantage but took occasion to cover
their short lines agtin. Prices touched
the highest late in the day, but the hes
itation again overcame the spectators
and prices sold off again making the
closing easy.
