blood from its diseased condition to a healthy circu*

to effect a permanent cure, it must be taken regular¬

DISRESPECT IN THE FAMILY.
One of the greatest evils known id the
family circle is the disrespect 30 {re**
quently shown between members, orie to
ano.hbr, in speech, action and dress.
The gruff ‘yes’ or W of husband to
wife, in answer to & pleasant querv,
leads to unpleasant consequences, and
begets a cold, calculating style of address
on either side,’which sooner or later is
adopted by the younger members, and
the love and affection which should dwell
within is dispelled like dew before the
morning sun. The indifference of'en
shown in little acts of duty, and tlie ■
manner in which they are performed,
seem to carry the expression T’m glad
that’s out bf the way ; don’t trouble me
ajain. In dreSs and personal appear
»ice the husbarid goes unkempt and nn
shaven, and the wife slipshod and shab¬
by. Anything is good enough tor home
when there are no strhngcra about.
Thus are the habits of disrespect formed
and one of tlie great dangeis of home
life bred and fostered. Many of rig have
sben the plav of ‘Flannigan’s Home;’
where Pat comes tumbling into the
hduse at dusk, dumps his hod in one
corner, His hat and cost in another, kiwks
the cat through the window, damns Bid
dy, swears the gruN isn’t ‘fit fob a man to
eat,’ and raises a general row all round
It is a good thing tor the well-to-do ’n
life to study the character bf the lower
strata and ask themselves if there is not
room for improvement in their own more
pretentious homes.
Some homes are full of love and snh*
shine for strangers; and all ugliness and
gloom for the one«i for whom they live,
To constitute a triily happy honle there
should be pretty litte personal adorn¬
ments on t he part of the wife, who there¬
by shows a desire to her husband,
and to add to the geiiefki attractions of
her home. A pleasant word on her paid,
when the overworked man comes home,
of„en eats away the raw edge of £bme
trouble on his mind, and draws out a
corresponding desire to be both ayteea*
ble and respectful which thavacitbiiss
tion are always accompanied by affection.
What is true of manners is true ot di-ess
also: Rudeness roughness &rid irfipa
titnee are soon followed by indolehee
and when sweet temper gives way tb an .

Huntsville, Alabama; Several Cocoons,
which were donated by an Englishman,
who had brought them across the Atlan¬

white mulberry trees. From these CO

been formed fer tbe purpose of training
the colored folk in reeling, spinning and

A DREAD SPECTRE:
The Commmie is frightening the
Northern people as slavery never did the
people of the South, because there i$
nothing so conservative as a full stomach
and few cares, while rtveise of that pvo
position, with White men especially,
means something dreadtiil when compi-fi
hensive and massed,
1 he Jacobins of the North succeeded
in freeing negro slaves in the South by
war and unfriendly legislation. They
made privileged elksses and enormous
debt. For a little vvh'le everything was
lovely and their goose hung high. Then
came the rebound, 1 lie bladder of false
prosperity was pricked, and in ihe train
of reconstruction at the SriHth came
Whit3 slavery at the North—the bond¬
holder and tlie bondsman. Now the an
,
tagonism of classes has net bhlv begun
but the conflict is organized. Tlie veiv
men who were used to subdue the South
have been effect daily subjugated; and in
their agony, prate of despe-ate kfid un
lawful remedies.
The New York Tribunt says.*
‘Communism is organizing itself into
leagues, and holding conventions, and
asking for an alliance wit ii political face,
lions. We do not believe that it can
ever be the ruling power in the United
States; but it can easily become tlie ty¬
rant of certain localities—the mining
disiriet of Pennsylvania, the turbulent
city of San Francisco, and Rome other
regions: and whenever the flame of in¬
surrection breaks out, we in LN r ew York
can hardly escape attack. It is well to
look at tYe situation carefully and ern
eider how we shall meet it ; above all,
how we Shall awake in bur children the
conservative leligious sehliment which
animated otii- father.’
It is hard lb tell what -tvill happen,
oiu men nbiv living can reriierriber when
Abolitionism was so unpopular iii New
England thkt the leading advocates
wei-e invariab’y skinted \VHh nr Savory
eggs. It gi'etV powerful by degrees, un¬
til it ovevshadovVeH the whole "land and
deluged it in blood. Never did Aboli¬
tiomsrh have halt the pretext that Com
unisui has, for no man is expected to
feel for irhe woes of another as he feels
for his own, especially when the race is
different. Then, again, Northern poli
tieians are not always particularly serti
pu’ons about the tools they tise or all¬
iances they term. Have not tlie Repub¬
licans, in limes past, resorted to etery
infamy to possess power? Have they
not, while claiming all the wealth, all the
morals and all the civilization, allied
themselves with the densest eonglomera
tion of poverty, iice and barbarism ?
Have they not taught the Commune a
lesson in disregarding all laws, human
and divine ? But, aboVe all, is it not the
‘very fiend’s arch mock’ to hear Mr, Jay
Gould prattle kbout ‘awakening in our
children the conservative religious senti¬
ment vVhich animated otii* fathers!’ We
do not see vvhtit there is in Mr. Gould's
career to stop any Communist from car¬
rying out his vi icked designs. The

AN WEDDING.
Shortly there entered, in perfect si
lence; a cortege drawing a dog slod, in
which wa3 seated the high pi’iest ot the
tribe; rtad a more vilhiuous looking ob¬
ject I never beheld. He was stripped to
the waist, anil smered with oil and col
oving matter in stripes, which gave him
the appearance a Chinese joss, On his
head was a tiara o‘i bears’ claws, sur
mounted by aid enormous polar bear’s
head. On his shoulders were placed
erect on end two large walrus tusks, fan
bitully decorated With strips of red flannel
which had been obtained from the cloth,
ing ot a drowned sailor washed ashore.
The lower part of his body was covered
with other skins, over which were spread
a number bf young seals; ail alive and
bark ng. In the tight hand he held a
speer, which he waived aloft in a theat¬
rical manner, while with his left he mo
tinned to the bride and groom to ap¬
proach him. The whole concourse arose
and with shouts of gladness capered
around the priest’s chariot. This he
submitted to for a space of ten minutes,
and then, imperiously Waiving His spears,
commanded silence. The groom was
now directed to prostrate hitfiself upon
the earth on his back, and the bride di¬
rected to place her right foot upon his
throat, which she evidently did with re¬
luctance. While in this pdsition the
priest instructed the groom that sucli
was to be his fate, trodden under foot by
men, should he ever prove untrue to his
plighted troth. He was they permitted
to vise, and directed to approach the old
chief, tt’ho placed a spear at his breast,
telling him it would be his doom should
he prove untrue. He was next directed
to his father, who producing a fishing
line, informed him that he would choke
to death his offspring should he prove
unfaithful. Then to clap the climax* he
was directed to face the entire tribe,
who bandishing their spears, yelled at
the top of their voices vengeance on him
in the event of unfaithfulness. At this
juncture the,groom, apparently overcome
with emotion, dropped on the ground,
arid bowing bis head to the eerth, cried,
‘ I will be true,’ until raised to bis leet
by the bride .—San l?r'ancisco Mail.
Loveliness. —What constitutes true
loveliness? Not the polished brow; the
qaiidy dress!; not the show and parade of
fashionable life. A woman may have all
the butwai-fl marks of beauty, nnd yet
_not possess a lovely character. It is the
benevolent disposition; the kind acts and
the Christian department. It is in the
heart, where meekness; truth; affection,
humility are found, whefe we look for
loveliness ; nor do we look in vain. The
woman who can soothe the aching heart,
smooth the wrinkled brow; alleviate the
anguish ot the mind, and pour the balm
ot the wounded breast, possesses in an
eminent degfee true loveliness of chdfac*
ter. It is such a chnractkr that blesses
with warrfith and sunshine, and mnketh
earth to resemble paradise.
A Central AmkricAn Earthquake.
-—An earthquake ot unusual severity
was felt at Puerto Cabellb on the night
of April 12. Captain 8cho ! z, of the brig
Emma Dear!, which arrived in Baltimore
from that port recently, with a cargo of
coffee, slates that the excitement of the
people w-as greater than could be de-.
scribed. At first there .waS a rumbling
sound, followed by a heavy quaking, the
tumbling clown bf bouses, and the shat¬
tering ot walls and ceilings, which caus¬
ed the twelve thousand inhabilants to
make one general rush for the streets,
and seek a place of safety. Several
hundred families took refuge upon the
shipping in the harbor, aud did not re¬
turn to their homes until next day, when
some of them found themselves homeless,
with their buildings razed to the ground.
Another slight earthquake w-as felt after
midnight, but it was less severfe than the
first. The same earthquake was felt;
with less severity, at Caiacas, La Guayra;
Valencia and Barqaesimeto.

Two things are absc utely necessary;

to be disordered for tiiany years by (bra

stand ready to brush every revolt against

The lavV-breakiu'g communist must meet
no more toleration than a mad dog
Next, there must be a public which will
stamp out any political party or leader
who affiliates .with or courts the spirit of
GbfUraunism. Civiliied society must learn
to hold as pnblid enemies every organi

toward Communism. It must be treated
as we treat cholera or small-pox, or its
