A SAINT CAN 1)0 NO WRONG.
Jersey City, July 20, 1871.
j To Me Editor of the lleruld'.
Any of your readers who can not fully
! understand the “general denial” letters
! of Mr. Beecher and Mrs. Tilton, may find
some light on the subject liy reading the
strictly puritan argument of Mr. Trusty
: Tompkins in Sir Walter Scott's •‘Wood
stock,” chapter 29
“Htand up, foolish maiden, and listen,”
said the Independent, sternly; “and know
ill one word that sin, for which the spirit
of man is punished with the vengeance of
Heaven, Ueth not in the corporal act. but
in the thought of the sinner. Believe,
lovely Phoebe, that to the pure all acts are
pure, and that sin is in onr thoughts, not
in onr actions—even as the radiance of the
day is dark to a blind man, but seeft and
enjoyed by him whose eyes receive it. To
him who is but a novice in the things of
the spirit, much is enjoyed, much is pro
hibited, and he is fed with milk for babes :
for him are ordinances, prohibitions,
and commands. But the saint is above j
these ordinances and restraints. To him, '
as to the chosen child of the house, is
given the pass key, to all locks; which
withhold him from the enjoyments of his
heart's desire. Into such pleasant paths
will I guide thee, lovely Phoebe, as shall.
unite in joy, in innocent freedom, .pT’eas
nres, which to the unprivileged are sinful
oad prohibited.”
H<ow could Saint Beecher and Saint rtlt
zabetb T commit sin ?
Very respectfully, IT.

A HOT NIGHT $ ADVENTURE.
Will H. Plummer, of Cole county, relates
the following incident ns illustrative of the
difficulties and dangers attending an effort
of his to get a eorafottalile liight’s rest
during one of the recent lttit nights. It
was useless to think of laying indoors.
I'lie tlierihoineter wa3 somewhere up in
the IHMj anti not a breath seemed stirrings.
The windows were raised and the doors
opened, and every invention and allure
ment known to genius was employed to
I ooux up s single zephyr from the caves.
But all in vain. Will concluded, therefore,
;he would abandon the room that held
j his accustomed conch and take to the
I open porch, in the hope that a stray whiff
i of fresh air might occasionally reach him.
He accordingly wheeled out his easy
chair and w ith el v ited feet over tiie rail
ing dropped off into’ a nap which lasted
for a few minutes, when half-stifled with
the oppressiveness of the hi at he arose
lumselt and began to look around and
I study some new method of repose. Dur
ing the short nap, a huge rattle snake had
J crawled upou the porch uud coiled itsolf
! close to the unconscious sleeper’s ehuir.
In his survey of the surroundings on
awakening this object was the first to at
tract his attention. He was unable to
distinguish it through the dim light of
the shadowy night. His first impression
was to put Ins foot on it and push it aside.
But this required an effort and was abnn
doued. He next observed that at every
tnoyement of his the .object would start.
This led him to n closer inspection of it.
Suddenly he realized that he had a snake
for a companion. This brought him to
his feet, and is quick as a llasli his suake
ship was brushed from the port h with the
chair legs. This raoven eit was follow, and
by such a rattling from the grass beneath
us made the night echo. Will responded
by hurling his chair iu the direction of
file sound. He then retreated to his room
end brought out his shot-gun, reappearing
ju tas the serpent"was gliding out of the
jurd, and was at a point directly between
two young oaves ttiat were lying within a
few feet of ei eh other, when he tired, halt
ing the reti eating intruder with a bullet
through his head. A club finished the
work. E gh‘. rattles were the trophy.
But the 1 alance of the night was not \
a whit tlie more comfortable. The trouble j
of finding a i 00l ami comfortable place to 1
sleep was not in the least abated. J'ffer
tuu City Journal.

Frightful Irnpofa Drunkiti Mnn.
The intentional jump from the new
b idge tteronH the MioaiaHippi oeourreil at
three o’clock yesterday afternoon, and
caused quite a sensation on the fevee. A
(i miuu about thirty-seven years of age,
passed from the west to the cast end of the
b idge, in company with another man. On
arriving nt the east pier, the German was
seen to climb up on the railing and jump
ed off into the river, ninety feet below.
The hundred or more persons that were
upon the bridge nt the time rushed to look
over the south side and to see the m:m
drown, hut fortunately a skill’was being
rowed by, and the oarsman went to the
rescue of the German, and after a severe
struggle, succeeded in dragging him into
the la a*, and carried him to the western
shore, where a large crowd soon gathered
to sec the man whom they supposed was
dead.
Policeman Hays, of the second district,
took charge of the half-drowned mnn, and
conveyed him to tho .City Dispensary,
w here the physicians examined liim, and
found that he was too drunk to sustain
any serious injuries, and instructed the
officer to lock him up in the Four Courts
calaboose. When asked why he jumped
off the bridge, he, in ludricrous broken
English, explained that the man in w hose
company he was crossing the bridge dared
him for #lO to jump oft'into the river. He
was not going to be dared by anybody, so
he goes over tho railing ami jumps off.—
His head was covered with mud from the
bottom of the river. Ho seemed to 1 e
very angry because he got so wot and
muddy, and because he was prevented by
tlie policeman from collecting the #4O that
he had won.
The man gave his name, to the police ns
•Toliu Pfeifferdecked, a laborer. He will
be released from his imprisonment this
morning, if he is sober enough, and not
found to he insane, fit. Loris Kejmlkiean.

Advice to Hjchenaijeos. “Don’t stand
right under the porch and howl, blit get
out iu the middle of the street, or, better
sti 1, on the other side of it. Distance
lends enchantment to the sound. * * *
Don't let your screaming tenor soar an
octave above all the balance of the chorus,
and remain there, setting everybody’s
teeth on edge for blocks around: and
above all, don’t let him sing a solo; pro
bably there is nothing in the world so
suggestive of serene contentment and p r
fect bliss as the spectacle of a calf chew
iog a dish,rag; but the nearest approach
to it is your reedy tenor, standing apart,
in sickly attitude, with thrown back, and
eyes uplifted to the moon, piping his dis
tressing solo, Now do Hot pass lightly
over this matter, friend, but ponder it
with that seriousness which its importance
entitles it to. * * * * *
As soon as you start, gag your tflWor,
otherwise he will bo letting of a screech
every now and then, to let the people
know lie is around, l our amateur tenor
is notoriously tho most self-conceited of
all God's endures.* Mori Tirriin.
