An exchange says “he will be hard to beat, for his peitonal magnetism,” etc. “Personal magnetism,” bosh ! Is personal magnetism stronger than iron ribbed Democracy?— Jlbany News. A Fishing Boct—A Fmnll party of gen tlemeo and ladies from Pennsylvania lately went down to Florida thus armed and equipped lor enticing the finny denizens of the deep from their pluvial homes : “The muster of this club of pious fi*her mon included a bait-preparer and moralizer; disturbance quieter and disorder-adjuster ; treasury-exhauster and lucre-seattercr ; de fender of the cluh’g legul rights; borsehair destroyer and catgnt-vibrnior; oarlock repairer and anchor-scraper; bait-opener; flag-hoister and fog-hornißt ; oyster-grnp pler, pie-biter and lemon-squeezer; fisb inepeutor and anti beerisi ; clam-opener and seel-twister ; ice-cream fieezer, grub-dis peoser and medicine-mixer; theological dis tributor, revival-agiiator and orator ; fi-h --stringer and librnriau ; razor- flourishes. bay rum Bmger, and hair-dipper; fi-h-book route-projector, end polisher of >ahi«i> ru.lder.”.. By Legal Power. Several ol the Stßte papers—secular ns well ns religions—nre calling upon the leg islature to react prohibitory laws with regard to the sale of hquor. Some are urgent in their n| peals; others almost de nit neintory. Upon this subject there is n diversity of opinion. Some believe it unconstitutional to ennet lows spci ifying what n person shall eat or what he shnll di ink ; for if it be right to say what he shall do in ref, rencc to these, the right might also be claimed —reasoning upon this hypothesis—to my what the color or texture ol his hat or coot shhlf hie. On the other hand, it is contend'd that, as in toxicating liqnors are injurious, the law making power Ims th' right to interpose its mandate in restrict!,ig or prohibiting its use or its sale ns it does that of other injurious articles. 'I here are very many nhle advo cates of each of these propositions, and each ride is armed and panoplied with an array of argnment hard to meet. Troth to say. to one who may be undecided, it were a d ffieull thing to determine on which side to stand. What, then should he do who has doubts ns to which is right? Lot him stmlv it out for himself, closely, analytically. Ix-t him nrgue intelligently, by the aid of all the experience he cun muster, and then let his conscience assist him in coming to a conclu sion. Now. many good men sell whiskey—so do good men sell arsenic. This only proves that even good men will sometimes engage in a bad business. Rut whether hgal loree will he a more iflectual agency than moral suasion in stopping the sale of an article known to be dangerous, is just at this time an undecided enigma If legal force is in voked the sale is stopped, but the vendor believes he is badly wronged. On the other hand, if the grand instrumentality of moral suasion comes forward, then ihe color of the mutter is changed, and he who was ennsid ered cruelly wronged by Ihe one deems him self jolly vindicated by the other. In some things legal force is necessary— absolutely essentiul—to a proper enforce ment or snvlainmrnt of the public weal ; but in regard tosumptnarv Inws. great ran lion should be observed, lest the legitimate boundaries be overstepp'd. It is necessary in eases where any other remedy would he worse than useless ; hut with reference to the sale of liquors, why not leave it to the public—which, nt last, is the ultimate arbiter in all such cn=es. While it would be a cause of joy were there not a drop of whiskey upon the face of the earth, still, as its sale is tolerated by law. jus! the same as vinegar, syrup, and many other commodities, let not the fierce storm of wrath, surcharged with holts forged in the sinithery of an un reasonable or an insane antagonism, break over the heads of those who purchase the tight to deni in it. When the State refuses to prolbng or renew that right, will he time enough to hurl these bolts against them. Knelt one mit«t decide for himself which is tight. The Wrfki.t has no desire to dictate. It leaves the subject with those who are more immediately interested in results than w<> are. A Creditable Showing. —'The Augusta Chronicle, in the conclusion of an article on tlie financial condition ot that city, thn* sum* op resnlts. It is certainly grntifying that, with a bonded debt of over $2 000 000, the benutiful border city is so creditably established : Every obligation is promptly met; every dollar of interest paid when due and on de mand. Every department of her govern ment is in admirable working order. Econ omy marks the management of tho adminis tration in every quarter. Her people are prosperous; their indiv’dual credit isiqual tn that of any o'her community ; and her securities among the best in the country. Paw Passu. —The Madisonian having boasted over Ihe improvements going on in Madisoe, raid improvements consisting of the erection of one flight of s'ep? to a store door, the local of the Americas Recorder comes to the front also. He declares Mad bon shall not go ahead of his town ; and to make his o c sertion good be obtains the con sent of a merchant to erect steps to the second floor of the building. Now. that is a rivalry that will tell, c nro. Go on, gen tlemen ; but don’t overdo the thing. Little Credit.—No intelligent man will give much credit to the declaration of Grant that he will not be n candidate for the Pres idency in 1880 Giant is ambitions ; Grant is greedy, und these combined will move him to a reconsideration of any determina tion be may have arrived at. Wait until be gets in the clutches of his friends here at home, ard then we’ll see which way the river runs. Mr. Stephens. —Mr. Stephens is enjoying his visit to the north with sonie'hing likehia old-time vigor. The attention he is receiv ing upon all sides is an eloquent tribute to a life spent in the service of truth and justice —Atlanta Constitution. Shorten the term and except the aid be rendered Felton in his campaign. - Rev. \V. 11. 11. Murray. It woo Id, perhaps, be ungracious to speak of the Rev. Mr. Murray’s career a* ended, says the Philadelphia 'limes. His friend still ptofess laitb io him and ate confident * - *•. • difficulties all right. They are equally sure that he will be able to explain whatever ap pears suspicion* in his recent conduct, and re-establish his reputation as a Uhristian gentleman. Every right minded person will devontlv hope thrt! the»o anticipations mnv be realized. The fall of any man is sad enongli, but that of a prominent clergyman i« most pitiful and difonnrnging. At test, however, it is quite impossible that Mr Murray should pver a.rain stand on so high a p'oee ns lie occupied but a short t : me ago. A minister never recovers from the r fleets of financial on'anglements ard uncial scandal even though he mav prove that no'hing worse than imprudence involved him in them. The contrast between the prond position of nsetulness which the pastor of the lending Congregational church in Boston occupied a few years ago, and the nnfortnnntp condition of the fancy hoise raiser and buck board wagon manufacturer, involved in debt ard vainly sought by a crowd of creditors, is a striking one. And it is nut without les sons. The most obvions one is that lesson which so many Americans have taught, and yet which so many will only learn by bitter experience— the folly of one man’s trying to do many things. Mr. Murray was a very clever man—in some directions a brilliant one. He was an attractive and forcible preacher, with a capacity for growth that might have won him high rank in his pro fession. He had in him the makings of an editor, and if he had devoted himself to Ihe business might have given (lie country what it has never h d—a thoroughly first-class religious newspaper He had a fondness for horses, which, with a sufficient income, would, no doubt, have made him a rival of Bonner in the extent and vilne of his stnd. He had the genuine Yankee push which has been at the bottom of so many fortune*, and had lie devoted himself to business, ought to have stood more than an even chance ot be coming rich enough to gratify a Bonner’s extravagance in horse flesh. With so wde a range of talents it is not remarkable that the brilliant young minister should hnve thought he could succeed in whatever he might attempt, and no he embarked on one new project alter another. The result has been what any less brilliant man would have assured him was inevitable He |ms failed in everything, lor. whether he ever returns to the pulpit or not, hi* success a* a clergy man in the future is impos-ible. It seems strange that a minister should not ,«cp what everybody else does, that the demands of the clerical profession were never more exacting than they are to-day; that a man who knows enough to make po good a paper as the Golden Rule once was should not per ceive that the conduct ol a successful jour nal must engross any man’s best talents; that an editor should not know lie was the last man in th" world to attempt making a fortune at one stroke out of a business speculation, and that a New Englander, consecrated to the most sacred of profes-ions, should not leel the immorality of running in debt for sneh luxuries ns fast horses. But so it wo*, and the net result of it all is a other and most signal warning of the folly of having too many irons in the fire There is another moral to which Mr. Murray’s failure points, and that is Ihe danger (or the clergyman of forgetting hi* profession. It would be absurd to censure a minister for admiring u ho'so, but it is, on the other hand, unreasonable to expect public respect for the clergyman who figures a good share of the time as a jockey. It is not necessarily unclerical for a minister to invest money in a btrsine s enterprise, but the minister who gives hi* name to a new style of wagon and advertises it all over the eountry must expeet to be better known in his ro'e of speculator than as an ambassador of Christ. It is not necessarily immoral for a minister to go off on a pha-ure tour with another woman than his wile, but it would seem as though the record of clerical scun duls were long enough to teach every mem ber of the profession the necessity of avoid ing even the appearance of evil. The public is not unreasonable enough to cut off the clergyman from all enjoyment of the good things ot life, but it does demand, and very properly, that the man who professes to devote Ids life fo saving souls should show some regard for the proprieties of so sacred a profession. A Demand on Ur. Hayes. Now, Rutherford Bufchard Hayes, Pres ident of the United Suites in defiance of the Const itntinn of the United States, counted in by Z eh Chandler, and placed on the chair by Grant, taken from the putter and seated on the throne, are you a man or a mouse? Snch an opportunity ns is now witbrn your grasp comes but onee in an era, and when utilized serves to mark the begin ning of new epochs. Are you a pame eock or a dunp-hill rooster If A bobble floating along on the turbulent waves of destiny, or a master-spirit evoked from the laboring ages? A ftuud or a fact? Rutherford, from your eyrie cast your eye to the South land, from swaggering Kentucky to lying Ixmisiana, from chafing Carolina, across cowardly Mississippi to brutal Texas, and note the camp- firett of rebellion and hate, burning in the eyes of the b.-flh'd traiiors who sought to destroy this nation Note red-handed murderers and noon-day assassins sitting in places of honor (providing one can conceive of an honorable place in such a land.) and fanning anew the flames of trea son. see there, down in Yazoo, in old Missis sippi Yazoo, the pride and glory of rebel dom, the home of cowardly cut-throats and Stat s rights ; the lair of human butchers and State sovereignty ; the entrenched haunt ot political assassination and last ditch of Sta e lines; the invulnerable citadel of murder and roaring champ on of State con stitutions; the portcullis of treason and implacable enemy of the nation ; we say. Kutherlord, look down there, take your cue (if wo were sure yon were a reality and not a sham, we would say iusp ration instead of cue.) proclaim the States of Mississippi and' Louisiana in open rebellion against the natioo, and declare every State of the old rebel Coulederacy into u stute of siege. Rutherford, dare >ou? The man who dares not is lost, or drills aloog like a maggot on a chip into the oblivion from which be should nev>T have emerged. Thirty million loyal hearts are behind yon. Rutherford, we are ready to echo the first note that tells ol a grand strong purpose. Tins is a nation, Rutherford, dare you say ? It takes a giant to pri'oouoce the word from the lofty emi nence you occupy, a giant with kings of of lira-*. Rulb'.c/uad, arc von the man? Dane the proclamation. Appoint Ben Butler Military Governor of the insurreetorv province*, with headquar ters in Yazoo City, in old Mississippi; call an extra session of Congrpss ; exclude there from every so-called Senator and Represent ative from the rebellious territory, and with a loval Legislature begin the great work of moulding a plastic nation into form. This is the heroic method, and requires a hero in the van. Rutherford, we fear von are not the man on horseback. The white-winged couriers of Ihe deep will bring him from the Orient, where he is now arbitrating the nflairs of empires whose history takes roots in the mists of an antiqui y measured by thousands of years. Grant, the simple citizen, smoking his cigar, the statesman without an equal, the soldier without a peer, is roming, he, for whom the loyal North watches and waits. —Lemart Sentinel. Tlio Jews in Palestine. The land of their p'o i tsed inheritance is rapidly becoming their own in fee. If we compare fhe pre*ent time with pi >hfy-three rears ago, when the Sublime Porte permitted onlv three hundred to lire within the walls of the Holy Oily, the change is remarkable. Forty years since the Porte modified this original order so that a larger number could abide there ; hut they were shut up in nar row and fi'thy quarters, next to the dog and leper quarters, the object* of contempt anti eruel oppression*. But even this quarter restriction was removed ten years ago. And now the ruling power is in the hand of Great Britain, and the sceptre itself is in the hand of an Israelite, and Baron Rothschild hold* a mortgage on Palestine as security for 200.- 000 000 francs loaned to the Sultan of Tor key. lr looks very ntneh as if accomplished fact had put i'self in the place of prophecy. The Jews, after the quarter restrictions were removed, bought all the land which conld he obtained within the gate.*, and have built entire streets of honses without the gates. With the improvements inevitable (rom libtrtv and the possession of homes have come kindred progressions in provision' of charity for the destitute and affleted. The German Jews have six'een ot these Two journals have been started, and in the Rothschild and other Jewish hospitals six thousand patients ate under constant treat ment. The Venetian Jew* have given sixty thousand francs to found a school of agrieul ture; and, in evidence of a progress that shows divine cate and intervention, the num ber of Jews has doubled in about ten year* In 1860 there were not more than seven thousand Jews, shot np m their quarters and though a vast improvement on the past, still they appear to us wretched ensugh to make the most careless sigh over the mighty fallen. But in the five succeeding years they increased to more than thirteen ihou suud—Nev’ York Observer. A NEW MADE GRAVE. INSCRIBED TO THE MEMORY OF MINNIE NOI.LKY. In yonder quiet graveyard Is a new mnde grave to-day ; Am! the rain is (ailing softly Down on the mound of clay. Falling gently and softly Down on the blossoms (air Woven in wreaths and crosses With the tenderest love and care. God only knoweth the hitter cry, In the hearts of the mourners to-day, As they lpave alone with the sobbing rain The loved one torn rudely away. Leave her alone in her dreamless sleep, With pale hands crossed on her breast, And a look ol peace on her calm, sweet face, That can only tell of rest. Leave her, to go to a saddened home, And the sight of an empty place, While under the sod and the coffin lid Is hidden that dear, dear face. Is it sttange that they find it bard to have faith— Hard to submit to Gods will, As they long lor the touch of a vanished band, And the sourd of a voice that’s still? They almost doubt God’s justice. Their cross seems so heavy to hear ; And life seems hardly worth living, So great is the heart’s despair 1 But ah ! they forget, as we are prone to do, Sorrow's the common lot of all; Though some lives seem always sunny and bright, “Into each life some rain mast fall.” And so in the quiet graveyard Another pale sleeper lies, While the rain is falling softly, And the long day slowly dies. To her. life was not too sweet, With its burden of pain to bear. So let’s leave the weary heart to rest, Under the blossoms fair. A Friend Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 9th, 1879.
