Hr; Raltlwin anti another
War.
We copied, in our issue of last
week, a paiagraph from the Co
i iurnbia/let aid iu which the Rev.
I Dr. Baldwin was reported as dea
[clar'iig, just before his death, that
another anti terrible war would be
waged on this continent during
the present year. Wo have since
learned the following facts irom
Dr. R. FI. Rivers, which fully corn
roborate the statement iu the Her
ald:
In January ISG2, Dr. Baldwin wrote a
letter to General Thomas Rivers, in which
hi- said, ‘‘The present war will not finally
settle the question at issue. Especially is
this true in reference to the status of the
negro. Anoth -i war will shortly succe-il
this, far more terrible than the present.—
It will be to tht- present as were the Indian
and French wars to the war of the revolu
tion. This second war will determine for
all time, thestatns of tin negro. He will
be made subordinate to the white race, not
only in the South, but throughout the
world.’’
This letter was shown to Dr. Rivers by
the widow of his brother, and but a short
time prior to the lamented death of Dr.
Baldwin. He immediately wrote toDv.
Baldwin aud ask“d him if his opinions had
changed since the close ot the war. The
reply was, “My opinions have not changed.
According to my understanding of prophe
sy, another war is soon to convulae this
continent. The issue is certain. The Ham
Itic race will be mad* subject forever lo
thi-Japhetic race Ido n t gay that slave
ry will be re-established, but Japhel must
have dominion,” He went on further to
say that he had never committed an error
in the interpretation of prophecy ; that he
was preparing a work which he had read in
manuscript to the Rev. F. A. Owen and
others, In which he had foretold with per
fect accuracy the wai between Italy. Prug
fsia and Austria, eveu to the day aud hour
!of its declar rtlon lie said, “My theories
j have sometime been erron-oos, but my in
i were fev facts.” * w> ‘h-*Agi
This was probably among the last let P-rs
of that truly great man. Do not the time,
indicate that he was right and that we are
on the eve ol 1.-rriMt- events ?
The Echo.
Hear the story of the child which
went forth intn the mountain rav
ine. Whilst the child wandered
there, he called aloud to break the
loneliness, and heard a voice call
ing to him In the same tone.. He
called again, and as he tho ight,
the voice again mocked aim ’ —
F uehed with anger, he rushed to
find tho boy who had insulted
him, but could find none. He then
called out to him in anger, and
with all abus : ve epithets—ail of
which were faithfully returned to
him. Choking with rage, the
child ran to its mother and com'-
plained that a bov in the woods
had abused and iußulted him with
many vile words. Butttie raolbei
took" her child bv the hand aud
said: My child, those names were
nut tho echoes of thine own voice.
Whatever thou didst call was r e»

,Hadst thou called out pleasant
words, pleasant words had return
ed to thee. Let this bo thy les
son through life. The world will
be the echo of thine ovrn
Treat thy fellows with unkindness
and they will a.tswer with unkind
aeas — with, love, and thou shalt
have love. Send forth sunshine
from thy spirit, and so thou shalt
never have a clouded day; carry

in the flowers shall lurk curses -

“Cngged llfti Crop Out.”
The following good one is told
of John Jf„ a most inveterate wag
and one of the clevercsi men in old
Talbot. He wa- in the Bureau
office at Butler last fall, looking
over some old tax books, when a
negro of this county who had some
difficulty wi»h hi? employer, enter
ed and inquired of M it he was ‘de
buro.’’
“Yes,” said he ; ‘‘l’m the man.’-
“Well, boss, I kum to see you
'bouta fuss I had wid de man I
work? wid— Mr. B. You see. boss,
I axed him two weeks ago how
much money and ling? I got in de
store, he tole me a bundre*d and
thirty dollars. Well, las" week I
goes to town and buys three or four
dollars wuf uv tings, and den ho
says I owe him two hundred and
fifty dollars, and when 1 tell him
datcam? be so. he cast—
“ What ! did he cuss you ?” said
M., exci’edly, turning over the
leaves of the tax book.
‘‘Yes boss, he cussed me twice.’’
“Well." said M.. hurriedly snatch
ing up a pen and mnk'ug some
marks on the bock : * 1 fine him
nine dollars for tLat.”
“Look a here boss,’’ said the ne
gro, eagerly, "docs dey have to pay
for cuasin us ?’’
“Yes four dollars and a half tor
everv time they cuss you,’’
“Den,” said tho colored individs
ual. rising solemnly and putting
his hat carefully on the table, “fore
God, boss, he done cuss his whole
crop out, and I’s gwine home to
collect my money.’’
The negro made shell road time
back to his employer s, told the ne
groes of their good fortune, and
the result wa? that every one of
them went to Butler nev.r da- to
know about hiv ‘cu?s money. ’ B

botton Gazette,
A IFarwing to Widows. The
Stark County. Ohio. Republican
says: “ Judge Stover, of this State
has decided a point in a recent will
case, which is of interest to wives
in genera!, and widows in particu
lar. He fold? it to le law inat a
man may leave bis property to his
wile with a proviso that she forfeit
her right to it incase site mairies
a second time, and tnai the court
has no right to interfere wiia this
provision A rest aint of this
kind made to a single woman would
be as null and void, but \ a man
makes a devise to bis wife condi
tional that sh shall remain his
widow it shall be void it ahe mar
ries. She takes the estate ‘con
amore, and the law presumes in
that class of case?, that one bus
band is enough ‘or the ladv, a: and
if she chooses to enjoy a second
matrimonial union, she does it at
her own risk, and {-remitted to
her dower and such portion? of the
personal property as ibelaw -rives

a sort of control over their own
widows that will add force to ttie
reasons that usually perate to
prevent second marriaces It is a
principle, we appreheud, that will,
some day, receive due attention
and sharp handling from tetnala
reformers.

fell in love with, and succeeded in
winning the hand and heart ol the

James Cold well performed the cer
