The rich do nof? need insurance

for them to have it. But those who
would be left houseless and penniless

its charges as any that are reliable.

Scribner's Magazine for August is
before us. It is the best magazine,
published. This number contains
another. ; art idle of Edward
King’s “Great South,” under the, ti
tle of “Journeys in Georgia and Ala
bama.” It is written in bis u u.dly
attractive style and sylendi lly.illiistr:.-
ted. Several, Statements, however,
deserve severe criticisms, especially
those of a political nature. Georgia
has never repudiated her bonded rail
road debt. Certain bonds, about §6-
000,000 were issued by Gov. Bullock
wifhout authority of Jaw, and fraudu
lently appropriated and put upon the
market by. Bullock and Kimball as
their owd property—these have been
•declared illegal and void so far as the
State’s indorsement was concerned.
It appears from Mr. King’s own state
ment that lie never visited the planta
tions and couniry towns of Georgia,
—he never left the line of railroad
and steamboat travel, yet he tells his
leaders solemnly that there is “dense-
ignorance, great indolence, arid .'too
much popular vengeance.”, This is
false. For industry, refiinemont and
morality no State is superior to Geor
gia! - while New York is far inferior. —
As to the Ku-Klux, Mr. King’s “invis
ible empire” existed at tlie time of
Ins visit solely in liis own pregnant
imaffination. There are several oth
er statements falsely or unfairly made.

The greatest scandal of the age has
for the past twenty days been under
going in vestigation before a committee
of Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, N. Y.

Theodore Tilton that Rev, Henry
.Ward Beecher was frequenty guilty of ;
violation^ of the seventh command
ment with Mrs. Tilton. Confesisons
are the evidence offered by Tilton, all
of -which Beecher denies. Beecher was
one of the greatest men the nineteenth
century has produced, and we have
thought a good man. We can’t give
the details of the disgusting case, but
hope for the sake of morality .arid - re
ligion that it can be shown to be a
false charge:

street mendicant of whom noth-
; is known, while we haggle with a
iriniin, out of employment, for a

it down a poor seamstress to a.,
L-vation price; to let her sit in her
:■ clothes sewing all day; to de-
;t from her pitiful renumeration if
: storm delays her prompt arrival,
is not charity to turn a man who
ailt of work into the streets with
family, because he cannot pay
rent. It is not charity to exact
■ utmost fartliing-from tiie widow
L; orphan. It is not charity to
