Henceforth ihe sale of cigar, and soda
water will not be permitted in Macon on
Sunday. This is probably well enough. If
tbe conaoiencea of onr church-people re
quire laspenaion of these sslec. in order
that they might reat easy upon this pnint
every good citizen, whether he agreee wrth
them with reference to the moral question
involved or not, will cheerfully forego bia
cigars on Bonday, provided ha for
gets to ley in a supply on Saturday night
and cannot borrow from hia neighbors,
lee water will be substituted for soda, and
wo hope all hands wilt thus be enabled to
keep cool. Thia upon the auppoeition that
the sale of ioe on Sunday ia permitte t by
law.
We aro told that the grand jury were
• charged to inveeligate and bring to punish
ment all cases of gambling, and that the
oourt went so far aa to suggest that betting
at cards * in the dubs” was gambling under
tho law. We wiii not attempt to designate
the gambler, of the dty or the place,
when this pacsion is indulged. We aro not
poated with reference to this matter. There
ii a law against gvmbling and so long a, it
remains upon the statute books it should
be enforoed. But while the grand jury has
been alter the vendors of oigars and soda
water and the court has been exercised
with reference to gambling, even in “the
clubs,” we beg to oall tho attention of
the as agencies in the administration
of justice, to the fact that
the court baa been silent wi h reference to
the defalcations, embezzlements and rob-
belie, committed upon oar moneyed institu
tion,, notwithstanding they have became
notorious, and that our grand juries have
lolled to indict a single one oi the parties
implicated in these transactions.
It may be the o.urt nover hoard of any of
these coses, and hence has not obarged the
grand jury to look into them, and because
of the failure of the oourt to obsrge upon
them the gland juries iu some instances, at
least, may have overlooked them.
We call attention to them now in order
that we may test the provieion, of the law
and the methods of iU execution in oases
of ibis kind, as compered with it, provl*
ion, against tbe sole of soda water and ci
gars on Snndsy, and gambling in general.
We are all wlUlog to see the sole of cigars
and soda water nuapended on Snndsy. We
are likewise opposed to gembiing. De
nunciation of these sins, the latter espe
cially, Is easy, and thereto., cheap, Are
wc not in favor of protecting the iuatitu-
' tiona in which the capital of onr people,
and in many cases that of widows and or
phans, lalnv.ated? If so, let not the spirit
of reformation expand its force
npen the Snndsy sale of cigars and soda
and in lectors, on "gambling,” while men
guilty of felonies ore permitted to walk our
streets undisturbed by tbe law or the ageu
oil a instituted for its administration and
execution. Veople at a dlitanca wUl say we
strain it gnats and swallow oamets. Some
of ua are very much concerned about the
impressions wo wUl make away from
home and wo suggest in kindness and
in eonfidenoe that we are in dangerof being
obtrged with inconsistency.
Neither the State, nor this community,
nor the grand jury nor the oourt oau
afford to make too much fuss over the
punishment of small offenses so long
great aluutrt ere not only unpunished, but
Lavs been spared even the annoyance, so
to speak, of in indiotment
soldier blmsolf. Unfortunately the woik
of decs, in the grave had been ao thorough
that tbe bones were badly decomposed.
The left side of the sknll, on which it was
hoped maiks of the trephine wonlj be
found, was entirely gone. This leaves tbe
matter still in doubt. No metal plate was
found. The finding of each a plate wonld
be conclusive."
The finding of tbe plate wonld not have
been oonelnsive. There wero many men
trephined, no doubt,during tbe long wars of
France, besides Marshal Key. As to the re
semblance itself, Athony Bolmsr, t distin
guished teacher, who will be recalled by
many people of West Chester, Penn., had
for his French master, an officer who had
served with the cuirassiers at Waterloo, and
who bore a muoh closer resemblance to Mar-
shal Ney than the old Frenchman who
taught school in North Carolina. By the by,
there happens to have been two of them,
both resembling Marshal Ney, and one was
called Miohael Rudolph.
After the downfall of Napoleon, there
were many emigres to this country, who
had served under him. Marshal Ney was
the son of an inn-keeper in the provinces,
and the name of Ney was common. If the
Wisconsin sooloty desired tho truth of his
tory, it might have been bad at headquar
ters. The shooting of Marshal Ney
shocked tbs civilized world at the time, and
the Duka of Wellington, whom, it is alleged,
might have caved him, suffered in puhlio
opinion. At the oelebration of the Statue
of Liberty in New York, among tbe French
guests, was a grandson of Marshal Ney,
bearing tho family name. He de
clared that his grandfather's remains
had been disinterred, examined,
re-coffined and buried again by the family
yean ago. The old sohool teachor of North
Carolina wee doubtless a member of tbe
Orand Army, perhaps one of the old Guard.
The pathetic aide of these old emigres
was illustrated by Tom Piacide in Grand
father Whitehead, and Uackett presented
the humorous aide as Monsieur Mullet In
the Post-effloe Mistake.
Where the Trouble Lies.
‘Is it realty true that anything less than
45 per cent tariff is 'free trade?' If so,
what did tbe proteotionists mean by adopt-
ing only a 3d per cent tariff in 1862? What
did a Republican President, two Republican
Secretaries of the Treaenry and a protec
tionist tariff commission mean by reoom-
mending a 20 per cent reduction in a 42
per cant tariff in 1882? What did a Repub
lican Congress mean by promising such a
reduction? Were they all 'free troden?’
New York World.
No. Some of them were probably pro
teotionists. But when did a Republican
Congress promise a 20 per cent redaction
the tarifi?
The truth is there has been no hone^j
effort to revise the tariff. Tho liorizontu
reduction hill was based upon the assump
tion that the tariff was not only excessive in
all its ports, but equally excessive.
Nor has there been any proposition to re
vise tho tariff through the inatrnmentality
of its friends. Every demand .for n reduc
tion oarries with it the demand that the
matter be plaoed in the hands of men who
not only believe the tariff excessive, bat
profeas to believe that any tariff for protec
tion is wroog, and it so happens that these
men are engaged in upholding tbe internal
rovanue system of direct taxation in the
interests of the whisky monopoly. Repeal
the internal revenue laws and the tariff will
adjust itself. ________
Mu. Faulxnxb, of Indians, is tha ohief
of a bureau in the pension offleo. Thia
tale ii told of him and Civil 8ervice Com
missioner Edgerton; “When Mr. Faulkner
met the Indiana civil servloe oommUaioncr
the following brief but spirited conversa
tion occurred. Said Mr. Faulkner: 'Them
rules of your'n Commissioner Edgerton,
ain't what they ought to be. They're ell
wrong, and you ought to change them
'It is jut possible,’ said the commissioner,
in his lightest, dignified manner, 'that you
do not understand ‘them rules.’ You know,
Faulkner, that even you don't know over)
thing.’ ‘That's so,’ retorted Faulkner;
don't know everything, just as you say; but
I'll tell you how it is, Edgerton. Yon and
me together do know everything. Yon by
yourself know it oil but one thing, and
that is that you are a d—d fool, and I know
that, and that’s bow me and you together
know everything.’ Upon this these two
distinguished Indiauians parted iu anger.
The entente cordials et last accounts had
not been restored."

Louisville, May 7.—The Southern Bap
tist convention met in its ii'oond day's
session here to-day with R v. Dr. Moll to
tbe chair. Dr. 0. 0. H -trine, of Philadel
phia, read an address on Bible work and
colportage. Ho reviewed the eeUbliah-
mtnt and failure of the S intbern Baptist
Publication Society. II i also devoted eon-
aiderable attention to tbe editorial work ot
th-i Baptists and then nr^ed hearty support
of tbe American Baptist Publication So
ciety He said: “It hu done a great work
in furnishing cheap Bibles und other books
and other helps to ministers. Tbe society
has not been bnrt in tbe least by the un
fortunate embezzlement of tbe past year.
Not a cent of the benevolent fund baa been
taken. Tbe entire embezzlement was from
the business funds and tbe embtzzUr was
in the peulteutiary. There had been one
other light misappropriation, but this man
had been bunted down.”
"We need for the Bibla work," he said,
'at least $7,(100. There are places reported
by colporteurs wherein whole communities
no Bible is to be found.” Hie argument
was that local publication societies could
not do tbe work as a great national society,
and he wanted no longer to see Slates that
received a shipment of Bibles and books
worth $500 return contributions to the
sooiety ranging only from $12 to $30.

and Mexico. There were 678 laborers, of
these 18 were in the Eastern States, 32 in
tho Middle States. 140 in the Southern, -159
in the Western, 16 in Canada, 59 n Mtxieo
and 2 in Alaska. They were maintaining
17 schools for colored people and Indians,
and several Munday-tohools for Chins. Tho
missionaries are of ten nationalities. They
hod rren'ed in the year 62 churches. Their
receipts for the year were $172 500
Dr. George B. Fayer, of Virginia, read
the report of the committee on mU-iona in
Papal countries. It fitst rev owed the work
in Mexico. In Coahutia alone there have
been 60 baptisms snd 150 ready for bap
tism. There ia a line of missions from the
Rio Grande to the Pacific. Mission* have
been extended from Coahulla south through
the three States. It is proposed to estab
lish in Mexico literary school* in connec
tion with missions. In Italy, there were 12
evangelists. There have been twenty
baptisms, with es many more
seeking baptism. Attention waa called
to the defense of tbe Bible
made In tbe Italian Parliament by an able
member of that body. Priests, he said,
were culling secretly tor the Bible. Tnes>
books had gone far toward producing a sen
timent in favor of a thoughtful Christianity,
which had Ua reflex in tue revolt of Dt.

EXCITED INDIANS.

Albuquerque, N. 51., May 7.—A special
to tbe Democrat from Gallop save: A dif
ficulty with N avaju Indians oocuired yester
day at Defiance, a station seven milea west
of here. A dispute arose in a store in the
village between E. M. Alien,a rletk, and an
Indian. The latter sprang over the counter
to grasp Allen, who drew a pi dot and shot
the Indian dead, fiotlind, the owner of
tha store, and his wife, who were iu the
room over the store at the time, same down,
and seeing what happened rtutted for Gal
lup on horseback. They bod not gene far
when they were surrounded by ermed In.
dians, who aocuaod Borland of kil'iug their
oompanioo, and who throated to kill him
and his wife on tbn spot. They were wild
with excitement, but Borland succeeded In
quieting them by giving up hia weapons
and telling them that be had nothing to
do with the killing. Finally Mr. and Mrs.
Borland were permitted to continue tbelr
journey to Gallup. Ia the meantime Allen
and a man named Haas barricaded the
store to keep themselves from attack. The
Indians broke into tha store, rifling it ot
everything valuable. An hour after
freight tram ou the Atlantio and Pacific
railroad passed through Dt fiance, and Allen
and Haas ran for it under a heavy fire from
the Indiana. Allen iacc»eded in getting on
tbe train and came to Gallup, naos missed
the train, bnt after being followed for eomo
dietanco by tbe Indiane, who kept ahoo'.ini
at him, he managed to elude them, aut
reached Gallop. A detachment of cavalry
(nut F»rt Wingate ba* gene to Defiance,
and it ia believed they will have a win le-
Home effect on ihe Indian* and probably
prevent bloodshed.
