Living on a Small Income—
Don't be Afraid to Marry.—A cor
respondent writes the following to the
Tribune: Six .yearns ago I married in
Europe. I then possessed two suite of
clothes, valued at 10 pounds ($5O) and 5
pounds in cash. My wife's fortunecon
sisted in rooust health and 10 pounds of
money. We lived in a cottage rented at
4 pounds per year, and by industry and
frugality saved sufficient in one year to
defray our passage to this city, where I
entered a counting-house at a sarary of
$450 per year. My second year's income
was $7OO, my third $l,OOO, and quite re
cently my employer t raised my salary to
81,200. We have now in bank $1.300.
During this time we have rarely visited
the opera or theaare, but contented our
selves at home, wlfich consists of three
snug rooms in d'house in the suburbs of
Brooklyn, at a rate of $l2 per month,
and find weare just as comfortable there
as if w 6 dwelt in a brown stone front.
In 1865 I Was worth $150,000 cash, but an
unfortunate speculation in ship proper
ty ruined me. I now am commencing
life again, and, with God's help and my
wife's, I expect to reach usy former
worldly prosperity. Young men, don't
be ashamed of poverty !
r po no let it
prevent you marrying.

Beaver Palls--Its Btastaess.—
Mr. Emerson, the President of the Bea

address a short time ago to the Board,
in which ho thus summed up the busi
ness of that growing place: The cutlery
works, the most extensive iu the coun

world; the axe and hoe works, the most
extensive in the West; the shovel man

its increasing demand; the !ling:works,
one of ttinost complete in4he country;
the glass wcirka, paper mill, knob works,
flooring mills, door and sash factories,
sale mills, three brick yards and the

an aggregate capital of more than $2,000,-

Protecting Roofs From
F ire.—
The ./.:ireinun's JOUr7ll4i, OUght
be good authority on such matters, says:
A wash composed of lime, salt and line
sand, or wood-ashes, put on the ordina
ry way of whitewash, Is arild to render
shingles fifty-fold more safe against tak
ing tiro from falling chillers or other
wise, in case of tire itr the vicinity. It
pays its expense a hundred -fold in its
preserving influence against the effect of
the weather. The older and more weath
er-beatTliahe shingles, the more benefit
derived. Such shingles are more or less
warped, rough, and cracked. The ap
plication of wash, by wetting the upper
surface, restores them to their original
or first form, thereby closing the spaces
between the shingles ; and the lime and
sand, by filling up the cracks, prevents
it warping.

A Bold,lif t ebbery, Perhaps.—One
day during h at week Orlin named Arg'
ober, living in this pbsee, drew $225 4 1 1 4. k
of the Bank at. East Liverpool, Ohio, and
took the train soon after, for home. Hp
says he observed three.'strangers in the
Bank when be obtalPed the money.
These strange 6, he alleges, took the
same train he was on, and immediately
becam e quite frien dl y with him. Through
some cause or other be Old not get off at
Beaver, but passed on to Rochester, and,
there left the train, . and proceeded to .
walk back, on the railroad, by way of
the railroad bridge. The strangers also
left, the train at Rochester, followed,
overtook him at the water tank, and
there forced him to hand over his money,
=5. Soon aflerwards he caused the
arrest of oue of the parties, and had him
lodged in jail, where he now is. The
two others mado their 'escape and have
not yet been overtaken. This is one
side of the story; the other is that the
three strangers and Mr:, Archer, after be
coming some , little achtutinted on the
cars, agreed to indulge in what is known
as three card Monte, and that they simply
played him out of his " pile." These
are the stories current touching the
matter, and we give'thent for what they
are worth. There seems to be no doubt
about Mr. Archer's being short of his
money, but whether he was relieved of
it by a bold robbery orwhether be fool
ishly gambled it away, remains to be de
termined by the evidence when it is
properlytaken. .
Superstition Is rife in the present
age, notwithstanding nut boasted prog
ress and intelligence. A woman in
Montreal has prophesied that , wearo to
have three days of Egyptian derkneis th
May next, in which no light can be visi
ble except that reflected by candles
blessed by the Priests of the Roman
Catholic Church; and an attempt to look
out of doors during, this period Is to bo
visited with serious bodily harm, if not
death. She has ninny credulous 'fol
lowers.
Haunted houses are another feature of
superstition, whichls quite In vogue at
present. The latestof this character is
published as being located in the City of
Allegheny. It was occupied by an offi
cial, but the "groaniugs, strange noises,
rappings, tte., which nightly occurred,"
so annoyed the occupants that they were
compelled to vacate the premises on Fri
day last. The gentleman who last occu
pied the house is no believer in ghosts
.or spiritualism, and says he continued
to occupy the premise![ for a considerable
time "for the purpose of solving. the
mystery." Among the incidents he re
lates of the freaks of the spirits is the
•
following:
At another time it lady visitor rushed
in the kitchen, pale as a sheet, and was
unable to speak for some time. After
recovering somewhat from her fright,
she stated (it was about seven o'clock)
that she had cotne to Spend the evening.
When she entered the-hall and was walk
ing toward the door leading into the sit
ting room, sr me person pushed her vio
lently against the wall, held her there a
moment and then fled up stairs. The
search for the person,' however, ;was
fruitless. It way be stated hero that the

Revival.—The series of meetings
held by the society of Friends In Alli
ance during last week, closed on Mon
day morntbg. These meetings wore
throughout marked with great power,
and a deep religious sentiment seamed
to pervade the entire community.
The Methodist society which had been
holding a series of meetings for about
two weeks, opened their doors for the
Friends and they entered into the spirit of
the meeting with a zest, that proved
that here at least, sectarian strife was
-4
unknown and that, the spirit of the Mas
ter feigned in this grand union of senti
ment which seemed to rest upon these
two important bodies, identified under,
different church organizations, Sueh ,
scenes as this we believe indicate the
approach of the blessed time when strife
shall end and we shall all see "eye to
eye."
On Sabbath day meetings were held,
onedn the Friends church in Freedom,
four in the M. E. church, and two in the
Opera House, large congregations as,
setnbling at each place.
The protracted meeting was resumed
by the Methodist Society on Monday
evening, under the labors of Rev. S. P.
Woolf, assisted by Dr. Upelegraff, Mrs.
Purviante and other emir fit workers
of the society of Friends, whom he pre
vailed upon to remain and assist him
for a low days.— A Mance Local.
Another Fatal Accident Near
41fiango.—From the Steubenville Newt,
we learn that on Friday afternoon au'
accident occurred near Mingo Station,
four miles west of Steubenville, result
ing iu the death of Mr. A. J. Porter, whop,
with his son, had been to Steubenville
to sell produce, and was on his Way
home at the time of his death. The-rail
road track makes a curve at the place
where the accident occurred,and the train
could not have been seen fOr any great
distance ahead. The engineer somata;
have discovered Porter before the wagon
was on the track. He sounded the rilarm ,
whistle. Being bewhdered, however,
Porter drove ahead until the wagon was
over the rails, when the horse stop
ped. Porter tried tp force him ahead by
lashing him with the reins, but ho would
not move. The boy, seeing the danger,
jumped out, but the father was not quick
enough, and the enginiNstriking the wa
gon broke it to splinters, scattering the
debris to one side of the track and throw
ing the horse to the other. All the har
ness was stripped off the latter but he
was uninjured. Porter was caught by ,
the cowcatcher on the front of the mov
ing train and carried along: nearly to
Mingo Station, a distance of -cveral bun
deed yards. When the train was finally
brought to a stand-still, it was found
that Porter's right leg was broken above
the knee, his right arm broken and his
head badly crushed. He leaves a wife
and seven children. _

THE ORIGIN OF EVIL.
11l ilo3lot-NO.
DEAR Ernvott:l9-Nife have allowed in
some of our former-articles that man is
progressive, and though the chance of
progress is offered him with the risk of
becoming worse If ho shall fail to prci
gross. In fact map must improve , in
character, and so In condition, or his
pre:mita state, WoUld *VW, become as
wretched as any condition ho has reason
to fear as a result or bis efforts to im
prove; i, e., man must, ei ther advance or
retrograde ; he canna remain fixed in
any character or roondltion to which ho
has or4nay attain in his present life.
, We see, then , that this principle of evil
was designed for his good, and it only
seems evil to us, no*, because matt failed
in his trial, and did not develope a char-
actor in harmony !kith his Maker as he
might have done; for, if man had not tail-
ed in said trial, bathed obeyed his Ma
ker's commands, we never Should have
thought of regarding thee prlviple—by
which said developement of character
was effected—as au evil principle, but
rather as a good. But, as man was left
free in this matter, why should he now
regard this principle, or trial, as evil?
Might he not with the same propriety
regard his Maker, who put hun on trial
and gave him said prohibition, as au
evil being? For, was not this whole ar
rangetnent God's arrangement?' It seems,
quite clear to us that, if any evil prinel;
pie is hero to be found outside of man
himself, it can only be found in God who
arranged the whole. We fail to see how
any blame could fall on a third party.-
Indeed, we do not wee third party in all
the trial, unless "man's own lusts," by
which he is "drawn awax and enticed"
to illrlry his 3lftker's ernume i nds, could
bettitled a third petty; and, is . not all
this seeking to find a principle—or being
of God's forming—with which to divide
the blame of our wrong-doing, which
God would lodge tvliotly on ua---an indi
rect way of charging our Maker with
the blame of part of our sins?
Eut,_ as saltlf preyerb of the an
cients, 't Wickedness probeedoth from
the wicked."—! Samuel xxiv. 13. The
question respecting the origin of evil is
felly settled by nrrelation iu the account
it gives of the Inman race. "It leaches
clearly that it has its source, its efficient
cause, in the wrong-doer; and the voice
of cm - ninon sense, es expressed In the so
ber judgment oral!, coincides with the
proverbs of the ancients and the teach--
ings of revalation—that " wickedness
,proceedeth from the wicked - " Not from
God nor thedeyil. The peculiar use that

originating and responsible source or
cause; Limits, the doertof it. Siu is not
uncaused; it Is not accidental—the result
of chance, or something happening with-
I out a sufficient canoe—but solely from a
transgression of a wrong-door. It had
an intelligent beginning; and it was ori
ginated by the voluntary act of a respon
sible moral agent, capable of keeping AV
breaking moral law. - It cottioi not lute
being, from an and every source, at
mere hap-haza
Evil not se f-caused ;it copies 'pet
from any,_ inlrerent t erlginating pfsiirlate
in ifself; and, as it does not orlginate it
self, so it does not perpetuate its exist
ence. Sin is the transgression of law,
and where it exists it must proceed froth
an intelligent, moral, responsible agent,
Sin is the effect, of which the %tenor
the cause. Miud—as in the case of Eve
—may be affected by the brute creation,
and by matter, but neither has the pour
er to ciiitmel its action independentnf its
'own will and choice. Had it been ether
s ire, sin would not have been
chargeable to man. • •
The serpent, nor any of the brut or
was capable of 'moral law, 'chase
quently no moral law was given them;
and sin would never have entered our
world and brought a curse upon all the
earth, had not man transgressed the mur
al law that God gave hint. Brutes are
never said to be rightemla or hotY; they
are not possessed of rational minds.
Neither can it be admitted-that sin pni
coeds from an unavoidable necessity in
the case; for, if man was forced from uns
avoi able cause, and must of necessity
transgress, then that cause and necessity
would be the origin of sin, And the only
source of guilt and condemnation. lu
sorb a case man would be excusable.—
Sui
does not proceed from any physical,
intellectual, or moral nature—natural or
aciluire.l—necessitating man to sin. In
such a ease he would be excusable. If
man has the power of choice he has the
power to do right and resist the tempta
tion to do evil. Neither can sic ho charge
ble to anything wrung in mania organ.
[Put, nor to ally unfavorable eireutnetati
ces with which he was surrounded in
the garden. G od made Win in his own
image; and there wits no moral, mental,
nor physical defect in hint that would
force him to sin; and, in addition, he was
placed in a garden and surrounded with
every blessing and oh - cementite° oaten
latod to impress him with good and load
him to the right. The serpent and the
forbidden fruit were the incitements ;
,anil served to excite Eves lust or de
sire for t h e fruit, but it cannot be said
that these temptations possessed of ne
eteelty, iii themselves, a power to fore('
Adam and Eve to sin contrary ta their
own voluntary choice and act.
There is a moral sense and juagment
in every man,that when reflecting on a
urong act, he is conscious that he might
have done better, he might have resisted
the evil and done the iviod. Taking all
the circumstances into account, every
law of his Maker that man violates ho la
con-wit 115 that he ought and might l i t e
k e pt; and it is plain that God does not re
cognize any defect in Man's ori.inisiit or
circumstances that servo as an ON.Clise or
p a lliation of his guilt. Sin is alone
chargeable to man's own voluntary act.
Ilad man the insensibility of a Clock, or
the nature of a brute, ho ,would never
have lawn chargeable with wickedness,
no said to have beetr holy. But God
gilfe 111111 a moral nature and made him
eaVaple of moral law, and the power to
Ow good and resist the evil; eon
sequuntl• by one man's transgression
sin enteral, and depth by sin"—the pen
alty of tlw law—"and so death bath pass
ed upon ;ill men, for all have transgres
lust" This is the Bible doetrihe of the
origin of evil ; and I/avid declare: that
"this is the proverb of the ancients, thAt
wickedness proceedeth from the wick -
ed.". So revelation speaks of "the soul
the man that dooth ini
trilulaittysi;non!:th
"(sir the sin that he Lillian) bath
committed he shall die." etc.
By God's provillential dealings with
man, His threatening* and judgments
allow that Ile recognizes tuna as the au
thor of evil. God pours out his jmig
nient-s and charges the guilt, origin, and
consequence of sin, upon MAN alone.--
A nil in society and human governments

say that he deserves to suffer pulp-di

instinctively fathers' the act, and feels'
self-condemned, and Owns 111.1 PUM -

Man may try to throw oil' the respon

The iteltragtou LaUtile. where now
aro buried so many of the Union sol
diers who fell during the war, is r ,thus
referred to ; by a correspondent of the
Pittsburgh Oironiele
Bering the lifetime of General Lee
there was never any intimation that an
effort woul&be made to recover the Ar
lington estate, or any portion of its value;
but now Mn. Mary Ann i. Loo,tr.rough
Senator Jolttison, of Virginia, petitions
Congress hi" purchase the estate from
her, and minims as the compensation,
three hundred thousand dollars. She
sets forth that She inherited. the property
from her father, George Washington
Parks UustiA, that it was; sold during the
the war for che non-payMent of a direct
tax of $92.671. that the property was sold
by order of President Lincoln, and bid
in by the United States for tstfa,sno, no
portion of which has been paid to the
owners. The question of title, divested
of these Minor circumstances, must
eventually turn upon the desertion cif
the property-.by its owner, and the s-aeri
five of his Claim to tt„ by placing himself
at the head a a belligerept power..
Whatever :may be the ,result of the
widow's prd,ver, it cannot be disguised
that a special Interest attaches to Arling
ton not unqke that entertained for the
•Lbotneof Wtashington.'" = it is one of the
links that holds together the sacred mem
orles of the past.
The original owner . i Mr. Cultis t was a
gentleman Who was held in very warm
regard by the citizens: of the Capitel, not
only on aecaunt of his identity with
Washington'is immediate family, but on
itecount of 1 his hospitable qualities.
Under his Oiro the grounds were al
ways kept i t the most attractive or
der, and for - .years, during his lifetime,
it was the resort, during; the summer
season, of parties of ladies and gentle
men frOdi Washington ' anti they would
spend the wartn days beneath the cool
shade of his groves, in the enjoyment Of
appropriate pastimes. Upon such occa
sions it was the habit of Mr. Custis to
add to their stbres of refreshments such
luxuries as cream, and ice, and fruits,
and to make them welcome by his per- .
sonal attention and courtesies.
When the late proprietor came in pos
session, the town pt - t ple ceased their
v kits, cenvinecki that there was no long
er a welcome for theme and during his
possession of the poDperty ho proved
himself to be a - somewhat stiff and formal
proprietor. .
Many of the old servanta, some of
whom are HOB v ingat Arlington, while
others are at service in the eity,have vivid
recollections or the twin masters. They
- all affirm that Mr. Colitis was the kindest
of masters; that during his lifetime he
always assured them that they should
be free at his death, and they firmly be
lieve that he lefts provipionto that effect.
Upon the accession of .Lee they ex peri
untied very different treatment. • Many
of them were hurried off into the inte
rior of Virginia, 'where they were hired
out, to create a revenue for their owror.
They do not - remember him with auy
satisfaction, and if restitution to his

BiIinORWATER, PA., /WI. 29, 1872.
Ebrrou Alton:—ln the last number
of Ho Badieal I. am calleda " Herm."
If:thia implies that I sin not a Republi
can, 1 deny the Implication most em
phatically, and think no gentleman•
would uee.sueh a term in speaking of
those who differ with him about candi
dates.' Language -like that has been one
of the causes that have brought our party
to whit ILls In this county. I have al
ways advocated the principles of the Re
pufilican party, and have on all proper
amnions used my influence to Beulah)
these prindlplea, and twice during the
darkest hours of our gauntry', history
I went is a high private to vindicate
them in the field. I never have distrib
uted Democratic tickets nor asked a man
to vote one. At the late election I voted
for • one Democrat, and ono only, viz:
J. IL McCreery, for District Attorney.
Now it can be proven that the editor of
the Radical, in the fall of 186 1 9, election
eered for H. M. Donohoe, Democratic
candidate for Clerk of the Court, and
said excitedly, on one or two occasions,
"We * are going to elect him." At that
same election a great many Repubilcalts
not only voted bat worked against Ar
thur Shields for Sheriff. We have 0. P.
Wharton's word (the editor of the Rcuti
ear a Lieutenant at that. time) for it that
Mr. Quay was among these. If there
fore, I am a political hermaphrodite, the
editor of the Radical must be two politi
cal hermaphrodites. In conclusion allow
me to say that. the men who originated
the troubles in our party In this county
seen, intent on, keeping these troubles
alive by abusing all who refuse to com
ply with their wants. As for myself
they can neither scare me nor buy me.
WILLIAM C. licyrEn.
House Hoirned.—We regret to
learn that the residence of Mrs. Louisa
Lacock, between Rochester and Free
dom, was burned down on last Monday
afternoou. We have not learned the par.
ticolarsi but presume that the principal
part M the furniture vas saved.
To LET— RA RE CH A Neg.—Store ROOID,
on the Diamond, Rochester, Pa., 'now
occupied by a store.) Inquire of D.
Nelson, Rochester, Pa.
Thos. Damara, of Greenville. was
knocked down and robbed of one hun
dred and twenty-five dollars, upon the
streets of that place, aisnit ten'o'clocicon
Monday night of last week. He was
struck several blows upon the head with
it bludgeon, and left insensible, in which
condition he was found soon after.) His
wounds though serious, were not dan
gerous. The Advquee wants to know if
that moral of lamps and lock-up."
The llnfontown Standard says: On
Wednesday night, January 3d,' a man
named Holland, Wriilst under the influ
ence of liquor, undertook to go to his
home 'way the Falls, but was unable to
get home,:and laid down in s field. ile
was discovered the next morning about
fit YAKtie RW4I
4 9 house, in an uncon
scious condition. IferiVas &ken home,
and a doctor sent for. The man Was so
badly frozen that, at last accounts, the
flesh was dropping off from his hands
and feet. When first discovered, the
calves of the man's legs were frozen as
hard as a stone.
Ajoon of Mr. N. D. White, of North
Beaver, was hurt on Saturday Morning
by hie colt falling upon him on the
"Narrows" dill. The animal slipped.
,27fr• Farmers and stock raisers have
frequently told us that they have seen
very good results from giving Sheridan's
Cava/ry. arndition Powders to cows and
swine before and after they drop their
young. The powders -put, them in good
condition, and give them, strength to
care and provide for the sucklings.
In Carrollton, James Steen and Wm.
McDowell were tried fur highway rob
bery, found guilty, and sentenced to the
penitentiary for four years. It turned
out on the trial that widsky was the mo
tive power that perpetrated the deed.
The Free Friss says:
• We understand that James Steen's
wife has commenced a proweution
against the parties that sold ber husband
whisky. This is just right and we hope
she may be successful_ Let the result
fall where it belongs—on the whisky
Lim and Tobacco Chewers.—
Here is, indeed, a startlkng novelty of
jurisprudence! A Justice of the Peace
in Mansfield, Massachusetts, has do
cidedthat it is a criminal offense to ex
pectoiate the juice of tobacco upon the
floor of a public ball; and sotto fined the
expeiitorator one dollar and the costs of
court:: Unquestionably the responder
was guilty of an untidy trick; perhaps
he was found guilty under the statute
bf malicious mischief; but we are certain
that If there be a special law against
spitting en the floor in Massachusetts, if
has never been exactly, a living letter.
However, wo can hardli blame a justice
for manufacturing a little law to meet
such an ocimision; and all decent tobacco
chewers will agree with us.
_yePi"We have often wondered whether
there is a person in all New England,
who does not know and appreciate the
value of Johnson's Anodyne Liniment as
a family medicine? It is adapted to
most all purposes, and is the best pain
killer that can be used.
, Afflicted Indeed.—We visited a re
lative IMr. Lorenzo Pitzer) at Youngs
town, Ohio, the beginning of this week
who has been afflicted, as but few other
men have. During the war ho was
wounded in the right arm, so severely
that the limb has been of but little use to
him since. Two weeks ago while at
tending to his duties on the Youngs
town branch of the Pittsburgh, Fort
Wayne 3t Chicago Railroad, himself and
another man fell from the engine, on the
track, and immediately in front of It.
The other man escaped intury, but our
relative did not fare so well, for the
heavy wheels passed over his left leg
and left arm, crushing them both in a
horrible manner. They have both been
amputated, the leg just below the knee
and the arm near the shoulder. Dr. D.
McKinney, of New Brighton, is the at
tending physician, and scarcely a doubt
exists hot that his patient %vitt recover.
.We believe, it is stated, that not a moan
nor murmur has passed his lips since
the casualty occurred The unfortunate
man is about twenty-seven years of are,
has a faithful, loving wife, and one child,
aged about two years.
