Troible With Mexico Looked for.
A special dispatch to the Philadelphia
Timet dated Washington, July 1st, says:
There appears to be a great deal of .anxiety
in official quarters regarding the attitude of
affairs between the United States and Mexi
co. It is even said to-night that war Is in
evitable, but a member of the Cabinet said
that while he did not think matters were
quite so bad as that be still though that
matters were very threatening. It is not the
President's intention to modify previous or
den regarding the pursuit of raiders Into
Mexican territory, and the Mexican Govern
ment appears to be equally determined that
the United States troops shall not only not
encamp on the Mexican side of the Rio
Grande, but that they shall not cross the
river. It is thought that the authorities
have some late and important dispatches
from Mexico, but if there are such they will
not be ijiven out. The President leaves to
morrow for Wllkeabarre, but before he goes
he will call a meeting of the Cabinet for
especial consideration of Mexican affairs.
General Ord has been here several days, and
has been almost constantly In conference
with Uie President, the Secretary of the War
and General Sherman.
A Bit or Political History.
In the tall ot 1875 an election was held for
county commissioners under the new consti
tution, each elector voting for two candi
dates. Morgan Fehr and PatrickCollins were
the democratic nominees and Samuel Gar
rett and Louis Blass the republican candid
ates. Governor Uartranft was a candidate
for re-election against lion. Cyrus L. Per
shing that same year. In Pottsville, leading
republicans openly cut tbelr fellow-townsman,
and life-long republican, Samuel Gar
rett and gave votes to Collins in return for
votes for Hart ran ft. In Girardville, Man
anoy City and other portions of the county
the same thing was done. From the fact
that Judge Pershing was very popular
among order-loving people, be received a
large republican vote at home, but was
slaughtered by criminals and their friends ;
and notwithstanding the open Collins-Hart-ranft
trade by prominent Pottsville republi
cans, Judge Pershing received a majority of
thirteen hundred and thirty-eight. Patrick
Collins was elected over Garret by a very
small majority. For the sake of Uartranft
the republicans slaughtered Garrett. For
Hartranft's sake they elected Collins and set
Louis Blass to watch him, and right faith
fully has Louts performed his part, especi
ally after he bad tried Collins and found he
couldn't mould him to his own views. Col
lins was not long In office before a bowl was
made for Collins to resign. It was Instigat
ed by democrats, of Collins' own nationality,
and the cry was taken up by democrats ol
all nationalities and echoed through the
county until it was threadbare,worn out and
monotonous. But not a tingle leading re
publican was heard to mention it, except in
a way that was calculated to stir up strife
in democratic ranks. The organ down
in the hole at the quarry gave Collins aid
and comfort during this time. Oae of its
owners called on bim at the conrt house and
by pampering bim, tried to get printing and
advertising from bim. One of its editors
took buggy rides with blui. Tbey were a
happy party all around,because it was keep-
log np a quarrel in the democratic party. In
the same spirit that republicans procured
the pardon of Illne, Benner and Conry,
after conviction and sentence by a demo
cratic court, they took the perverse commis-
jloner.whom they had elected by a disgrace-
fill trade, to their bosom and petted bim. Of
course be bas bad luck, as the quarry organ
remarked to-day, and it will only desert him
now If the same people who have been his
guardian aogels, viz ; leading republicans
and owners and editors of republican news
papers, should fall to get him an early par.
don. Why should the quarry organ connect
bis name with Messrs. Reilly aud Kaerchcr,
when tbey bad notblog to do with his elec
tion as delegate to Pittsburgh, and much less
with bis seating a Dauphin county man In
his place 7 Why will republicans persist
ently procure pardons for delinquent officials
convicted by democratic tribunals ? Why
did Uartranft and his lieutenants purchase
Mollle Magulre votes f Why has Jack Ke
tioe so much confidence in the "Old man at
Harrlsburg."

Distribution of proceeds of Sheriff's sale of
personal property of Defendants.
The facts stated In the affidavit of Mary
E. Saunders, admitted in the case stated to
be true In substance, are to the effect that
Wni. Saundors Jr., one of the claimants, al
though a minor, and living at home, his
father being one of the defendants,
yet that ho had been bo fare manclpated from
the control of his parents as to entitle bim
to recover for himself wages earned by him.

lie is entitled to payment of his claim as
if he were of age. His right ta recelvo pay
ment out of the proceeds of sale depends as
does that of all tho other claimants upon tho
sufBsency of notice to thcSheriff In their cnae
respectively.
The notices of Samuel Townscnd nnd 11.
H. Ringler aro in strict accordance with the
equipments of the wages Act ot 9 April
1872 and would bo safo examples to be fol
lowed In all cases.
The notice of S. B. Anderson is full and
complete.
The claims and notices of Win. G. Girton,
Catvln E. Girton and Alfred F. Girton by a
liberal construction of tho statute may be
held to be sufficient. It is a better practice
however to entitle tho suit In which the
lieu is claimed and to state In tho notice the
number of the Ft. Fa. upon which tho levy
is made.upon which tho lien is claimed.
The claim ol J. Elwood Heacook as stat
ed in the notice is not within the protection
of tho statute. It docs not appear that the
claimant was employed at the works of tho
defendant claim nut allowed.
Notices by 24 different claimants whose
claims in the aggregate amounted to $644.1 i
were contained in one paper and handed ta
tho Sheriff. It would be well for all parties
interested in claims lor wages to cause to be
made out and presented to the Sheriff with
proper notices his own claim separate lrom
that of other claimants. There is no reason
why the claim of one laborer or mechanic
should be complicated with that of another.
By the separate plan there will be less danger
ot rejection of a claim by reason of omissions
or insufficiency of notice.
The 24 claims are not as specific as they
might be it states that the following nam
ed laborers and mechanics, employed by the
Bloomsburg Lumber Company as carpenters
or mechanics working In the shop and about
the mill of said Company whose property
was levied upon by virtue of the fi. fa. des
ignated by the number, and it claims a lien
upon said property for labor performed by
the day within the six months preceding.
At the close it is stated that the total
amount claimed by these laborers for car
penter work &c, "amounts to the sum stated.
The notices would have been free from all
question and difficulty if the terms, laborer,
carpenter and mechanic had specifically ap
plied to each claimant according to the fact,
and the number of days work claimed by
each,or the price per day bad been inserted.
While I hold the notices by a liberal con
struction of-the statute to be sufficient I can
not commend them as specimens of clear
ness In statement.
In the commencement of the notice the
claimants are styled "laborers and mechan
ics" employed "as carpenters or mechanics"
and at the close the statement avers that
the amount claimed by the above mentioned
laborers for carpenter work amounts to the
sum named.
Taking the whole statement together
the evident meaning is that labor was
formed by mechanics at the manufactory
of the defendants, yet in some parts of tho
writing they are called laborers, In other
parts carpenters, and In one portion the
words "carpenters or mechanics" are used as
meaning the same thing. The labor per
formed a-s stated, by carpenters or other me-
cbanics,was performed in the Bhop or manu
factory of the defendants.
The question of notice to the sheriff by
claimants under the wages act has been un
der consideration by the courts in teveral
instances ; in several of these the notices
have been held insufficient to entitle the
claimant to a preference.
In McMillan vs. Bank, 1 Weekly Notes
58, it was held by the Supreme Court that
a notice containing a list of names and an
amount opposite each with verbal notice to
the sheriff that the parties named claimed
lien was not in compliance with tho law.
The notice must be wholly in writing it
must refer to the property levied upon, and
it must claim a lien.
In Kerdig vs. Atkinson 34 Legal Intelli
gencer 19C, by Judge Pershing, and in Gra
ham vs.McLean&BennerMachineCo.35Legal
Intelligencer 70,by Judge Butler.it was held
that a notice containing nothing more than a
mere statement that the defendant was debt
or to the claimant in an amount named was
not a sufficient notice.
Tho same was held by this Court in Wm.
Pelfer's estate 6 Luzernn Leg. Reg. 101. We
there held that the statute requires that the
notice should contain every essential to a val
id claim with reasonable certainty. It should
contain notice that the party claims a lien
on the property seized by the officer, and the
particulars of service as to days work or
work by the month or other contraband the
amount claimed.
In Re W. H. Bennett 7 Luzerne Leg.
Reg. 2 it was held by Judge Ilandley that
notice in the words of the statute is sufficient
without full detail. He is of opinion that
the notice which seems to be required by the
ruling In Pelfer's case Is too specific for prac
tice. Without pausing to discuss that ques
tion now it is enough to say that the notice
in the case under consideration is more full
and specific than that in either of the cases
above cited. In none of them was the prop
erty referred to, nor the fact that a lien was
claimed stated. While here the property
upon which the Hen is claimed is defined by
reference to the fi. fa. and levy. The claim
of lien is distinctly stated the work Is sta-
ted to have bsen performed bythedayand
the amount Is set down.
Now as certainty to a common Intent Is
the rule in the case of mechanics lien under
the act of 1836 ; McClintock vs. Bush 13 P.
F, Smith 205 and also under tho act In ques-
tion, McLean and Benner Machine Co. ut
tupra,fl.m of opinion that the notice in ques
tion may be sustained.
It being agreed that the amounts are right
if the notices are sulficlent,lt is now ordered
thatlbe persons named in the list be paid
the amount set opposite their names respect
ively (with the exception of J, Elwood Ilea
cock) out ol the funds raised by the sheriff's
sale upon tho fi. fa. No. 10 May T. 1878.

Ellin l'inkston's Story.
BliEIlMAN's DRAMATIC WITNESS IN LOUISI
ANA 8WEAU3T1IAT HER TESTIMONY
WAS FAt.SK.
A correspondent of tho New York ITeratd
has just finWIteil a succcsful search for Eliza
Pinkston and procured tho following sworn
statements i
State of Mississippi, County of Madison.
Personally appeared Eliza l'rhhard, wo
man of color, residing at Canton, Mijs.,who
being duly sworii,deposcs that her name has
been Eliza Pinkston, as wifoof Henry Pink
ttou, deceased ; that she has sinco married
Wayman Prichard, and is now residing at
Canton, Miss. ; that as Pinkston she did np
pear as a witness before tho Louisiana re-
turning board at New Orleans, La., in the
mouth of November, 1870, and as such she
givo testimony that her former husband,
Henry Pinkston, had been killed and sho
herself had been seriously Injured nnd
wounded by certain democrats of tho parish
of Ouachita becauso of and on nccount of
tho republican politics of herself. Depon
cut further deposes that sho vvrffc Induced to
gave said testimony by certain republican,
namely, O. H, Brewster and Dinkgrave, by
promises of reward, and she was, in fact,
paid therefor tho sum of $500, as per said
promise, which she received, and, after tak
ing therefrom tho sum of $50, she allowed
the remainder to remain with said Brewster
on deposit, but has failed to obtain said
amount, from said Brewster, although she
has frequently demanded tho same. Depon
ent alleges that at the time of giving said
testimony sho was in a weak, nervous and
prostrate condition, induced by suflVrlng
from wounds and by having her fears played
upon by Jnlimatious that the democrats were
Intent upon murdering her; that sho was
ij-norant and' uneducated, and was readily
induced by these persons of superior intelli
gence to give her testimony a coloring, so ns
to show that her husband, Piukston, was
killed nnd herself wounded on account of
political opinions, when the facts were that
her husband, Pinkston never took any part
in politics, and had in no way given any of
fense to any person on account of politics ;
but deponent believes, and did believe then,
that said murder was in nowise connected
with politics j that she did not then know,
nor does she know, who were the persons
engaged in said murder and wounding ; but
she believes that there is every reason to
think that a colored man who had twice
fought with her then husband and had been
by him worsted, and who had made threats
to take his (t'inkston's) life, was one of the
persons jn said killing ; that she was told by
her said husband (Pinkston) shortly before
his death of the circumstances of said fights
while at dinner at one time, and said Pinks
ton pointed out the said colored man one
day as he passed their home on tho road ;
that deponent cannot at this time recite the
name of said person, but knows that he
lived in the neighborhood of Ouachita City.
Deponent further deposes that she was per
suaded and prevailed upon to testify that
Tom Lyons, a colored man, was with the
party who killed her husband and assaulted
her, but deponent bad no personal knowl
edge of the fact other than being informed
by Cora Williams that said Lyons was at
her (Cora Williams') house on tho day of
tho murder. Deponent further testifies that
she was brought from her then home in
Ouachita parish and conveyed to New Or
leans, and she was instructed to testify and
lay all the blame of said killing and assault
on the democrats; and that she was further
instructed and induced to pretend that her
wounds were more serious than they were,
and that she could not walk, when in fact
she had walked each day considerable dis
tances and ascended loug flights of stairs
such as the custom house stairs in New Or
leans, without assistance ; and on tho day
she was carried in the room of the return
ing board on a lounge or sofa, sho was con
veyed in a carriage, but was able to walk
a part of the way up the stairs to the room
iu which the returning board was sitting and
gave out, but she was induced to allow her
self to be carried in on said sofa or lounge
in order to produce the impression that she
was worn out and could not walk. Depon
ent further deposes that previous to her
giving testimony before said returning board
she was visited by Mr. John Sherman and
others of the visiting statesmen, as she was
informed, and introduced to them as such,
and that she walked before them aud they
had ample opportuuity to see what her con
dition was and that she could walk about.
Depoucnt further deposes that during the
time she was in New Orleans attending the
said returning board she was constantly giv
en money by different republicans and was
promised a support for life, which last has
not been given as promised. Deponent
makes this affidavit without fear from any
cause anil without any promise of reward or
other consideration than a desire to have the
whole truth known iu tho interest of truth.

Sworn and mbscribetl before mo this 23d
of June, A. n. 1878, after the samo had been
read over twice to deponent in a distinct and
audible voice in my presence, and that of
lue foregoing witnesses and her husband.
SiNOLirrbs Garrett,
Justice of the Peace.
Eliza's husband corroborates her by swear
ing that her affidavit agrees with what she
has always told him. K, If, Hoffman, of
Canton, Miss,, one of the attesting witnesses
to me signatures of Eliza and her husband,
swears that he knows them both, and that
the allegations contained in their affidavit
were read and explained to them before they
signed.
Tho most imiwtant confirmation of Eliza's
story, however, is that given by J. W. Mos
by, tno owner oUlieland upon which sho nnd
her husband resido, who is also an attesting
witness. Mr. Mosby, who has been a jeweler
in Canton, Miss., for several years, nnd etill
resides there, is well known to reputable firms
in New York, who havo done business with
him. The head of a jewelry firm, and known
as bearing a high character, says of Mr. Mos
by :
"I know him personally and can vouch for
him as being a man of the strictest integrity
and honesty. His word should have as much
credeuco as that of any niau in tho city of
new xom. When Ho was first iu the jewelry
business we sold him goods. Then ho sold
out that businom and went into tho drug bu
siness in Canton. Ho guaranteed to the nar-
ties who bought him out that ho would uot
deal in Jewelry for two years, and that agree-
inent ho scrupulously kept. Slnco the two
years expired wo have again Bold him Jewelry
and always found htm serunu ously
honest. I don't know any man whoso word
I would tale quicker."
Mr. Mosby testifies that tho affidavits were
read over to Eliza and her husband, and at
their suggestion some modifications were
made. Ho further says that at various times
heretofore ho has talked with Eliza, and sho
lias always told him substantially the samo
story,
Ono of tho affidavits secured by tho Indus
try of tho Herald corrcsondent seems to give
John Sherman occasion lor further denials.
T. Wharton Collcns, a stenographer who was
employed by tho democrats that visitod the
returning board to witness its proceedings,
testified that having occasion to visit Mr.
Longlcy, the stenographer reletting tho pro
ceedings for tho republican visiting Rtatsmcii,
ho met him at tho door in ono of their rooms
in tho St. Charles hotel, on tho samo floor
with the famous parlor I', and whilo talking
with Mr. Longtey he heard John Sherman
through the room door laughing hilariously
nbout tho Pinkston testimony given that day,
and rcinatking to a gentleman, whom tho af
fiant took to bo tho Hon. Job. S. Stevenson,
that it was laughable- to sco how Governor
Biglcr had taken tho whole thing iu, and oth
er remarks in tho samo vein, by which affiant
understood John Sherman to bo rejoicing
over tho successful imposition of Eliza Pink
ston's testimony.
WASIUNUTIIN LETTER.
Washington, D. C, July 2d, 1878.
Tho two witnesses of importanco before
tho Potter Committee in tho last few days
were William E. Chandler and L. G. Dennis,
Mr. Chandler was summoned to tell what ho
knew of Florida affairs and of a "bargain"
between Hayes nnd his friends and Southern
Democrats by which Hayes whs to bs seated
and Packard and Chamberlain to slide. Mr.
Chandler seems to know nothing to tho det
riment of any Democrat, but shows pretty
clearly that Sherman, Matthews, Garfield
and others early resolved to give up Packard
aud Chamberlain in the hope that such a
sacrifico would lead Southern Democrats to
the support of Hayes.
Tho most interesting testimony, however,
was that of Dennis, and it will ba followed
to-day or to-morrow by that of tho two Re
publicanjelection officers of Archer precinct
Florida, who, DennU, says, deliberately add
ed 21!) votes to tho Republican side after the
polls were closed.
Mrs. Jen ks disappeared as n witness on
Saturday, having on that day appeared
merely to filo some letters which passed be
tween herself and Anderson. This notable
woman will long be remembered by Mr.
McMahan and Ueul. Butler, who tried all
the nrts known to the profession to get the
truth from her and failed disasterously.
Your readers will .remember the case of
Eliza Pinkston who, wounded, bleeding and
bruised, was brought bef jre? tho Louisiana
Visiting Statesmen as uu example of South
ern Democratic bull-dozing, and told a
frightful story of outrage. One Northern
Democratic Statesman then in the State up
on looking upon tho horrible sight, said if
the peoplenf Louisiana conducted their pol
itics in that way they were not fit for self
government. The story was soon exposed so far as its
political character went, ami shown to be an
ordinary case of assault. Now Mrs. Pinks
ton, sinco inarriid and living in another
state, makes affidavit that she received $500
from the Republican managci for exhibiting
her wounds and telling her story, and says
that politics had nothing tu do with her in
juries. She adds a Htatemnt so infinitely
characteristic of Louisiana Republican lead
ers that we are compelled to believe all she
says. It is that she deposited most of the
$.500 with one ol the Hayes electors for safe
keeping and has never been able to get it
back-.
A proposition has been made that Con
gress authorize the appointment of a Board
to sit in Washington, which upon the ap
plication of any officer or soldier of the late
volunteer army who was punished by Court
Marshal, shall review the tetimony nnd pro
ceedings in the case. Ifitis'found by the
Board that substantialjustice was not done
by the Court, the Board shall recommend
to Congress such action as will relieve the
officer or soldier as far as possible from the
penalty indicted This is substantially what
Congres.1 has done in the cie of Genl. Por
ter and Surgeon-General Hammond. Let
it give the poor man a chance.
After to-day Postmasters who have here
tofore been paid a percentage on the stamps
sold at their offices will receive instead a
percentage on those canceled there. This will
materially reduce the income of some Post
masters who have sold large numbers of
stamps to be ust-d at offices where ft salary,
not a percentage, was paid, and will corres
pondingly lucrease the receipts of the Gov
ernment.
Seminole.
About tho time of the adjourniuenut of
congress tho uespapcrs wcro filled with ac
counts of a Washington scandal of a peculiar
seusational character, AH the details noro
served up in tho most piquant Btyle. It was
told how Gen. Kosser attracted by screams of
distress in aiprivato room of a fashionablo
restaurant, rushed to tho scene, broke open
the door and rescued a lovely lady from a bru
tal assailant. Then followed elaborate bio
graphical sketches of tho principal actors.
Tho probability ol a duel was next considered
and tho advantages and skill of each was duly
discussed. It was said that Acklen from
whom Gen. Rosser rescued the lady, was a
dead shot, "and owned somo of tho "finest
dueling pistols." Acklen had fought duels
but no one was ablo to givo any particulars
concerning the deadly combats in which he
had been engaged. Caro was taken to men
tion Acklen was a prominent democratic
member of congress from Louisiana, and this
afforded an occasion for commenting on tho
wickedness of democrats in general. After
tho publio inaw had been crammed for several
days tho prosaic end of the scandal is reached
in the following brief telegram from Gen.
Rosser :
"I havo made no statements to newspapers
concerning you. Have not seen the National
Hepubliean nor extracts from it, and am not
responsible for what it has published, which
surely must bo false.
T. Ij. Kosser."

.lodge Stanton on the I'olltiral Situation.
lion, W. H. Htantou, who it will bo re
membered, was elected to tho bench last fall
in Luzcrno by the labor parly over both the
republican and democratic nominations by n
majority in excess of 3,000 'votes, has liecn
interviewed! by tho Sunday Free Press nnd
givfB his views very fully in reference to Lu
zcrno politics, especially tho labor question
nnd tho relativo position thereto of tho differ
ent candidates for gubernatorial honors.
Standing as ho docs a recognized and influen
tial representative and leader of tho lalrr
party iu tho anthracite region and in a county
where its first actual victory was achieved
tho views of Judge Stanton will be read with
peculiar interest and will carry with them tho
influence aud inspiration of ono speaking by
authority. He does not regard Mr. Mason
as an important factor in the gubernatorial
contest, believing that tho issue rests miuarely
between Dill nnd Hoyt. Starting from this
standpoint Judgo Stanton boldly announcos
his intention of supporting Mr. Dill in pref
erence to cither Hoyt or Mason. After de
claring him to bo "a better greenback man
than Mason, ho says :
"I know whereof I speak when I say ho is a
better friend of tho laboring men than Mr.
Mason. I sat beside Mr. Dill in tho Senalo
for two years aud I know him to bo a good
man. There is nothing of the sanctimonious
hypocrisy of somo of tin latter day statesmen
about him Ho is the'honest, sincere man
that he appeals. A man's nationality or
creed niako no differenco with him. 1 havo
heard sonic politically opposed to him call
him since his nomination, a corporation man.
I certainly always found him on the other
side. Ho always aided mo with his presence
and support in my efforts to get protective
legislation for the laboring men. Tho meas
ures I introduced to this end in the legisla
ture went to tho root, and yet ho did all ho
could to aid mc in getting them through that
body. It is a fact that a certain element of
the democracy of Luzerne, composed of what
I call the Kuow-Nothiug Democracy, is op
posed to Senator Dill on account of Ins liber
al, non-sectarian views and tendencies, and
they will voto cither for Mason or Hoyt.
Theso democrats who so proposo to vote are
men of large capital, and ate connected with
the banks and coal and railway corporations.
Mason is not seriously objectionable to them
for it is an allegation not denied, and, as I
am positively assured, undeniable, that ho
has figured throughout most of his life as a
corporation attorney. Col. Hoyt's chief pat
ronage has been from the samo source, and
my experience has taught me that such men
no matter by what, parly nominated, will be
corporation attorneys even if sitting in tho
chair of tho executive of Pcnsylvania."
Proceeding to discuss in a general way the
probabilities as to the complexion of tho next
legislature, tho judge gives it as his opinion
that thero would in most instances bo a coali-
tion and fair understanding between the.
labor clement and tho democrats throughout
the state, and especially in t he coal region.
His reason for this opinion is founded upon
tho belief that the workingmen of every
shado of political opinion are tired and dis
gusted witlfCanioronisni and determinedly op
posed to a further continuance of tho dy
Hasty. In the opinion of Judgo Stanton the work
ingmen fully understand tho point at issue,
aud will resent the attempt to foist upon them
either Hoyt or Mason, who ho says aro cor
poration attorneys, by voting solidly for Dill,
who in his entire legislative career has been
tho firm and consistent friend of tho true in
terests of labor. Tho views of Judgo Stan
ton como at an opportuno .moment, just when
public opinion is crystalizing into definite
form, and their independent straightforward
ness will commend them everywhere to care
ful perusal and attention. Patriot.
How to Make Good Times.
We have mutterings of storm in our political
and social sky. Angry flashes are shot athwart
the land,ominou3 enough to awako tho stolid
and heartless, wore it not that many may
bo deceived by names. It Is called Commun
ism, Internationalism, Workingmcn's Assoc!
ation,s, Red Republicanism, which in them
selves are bad enough, but under those is con
ccaled real want, which is moro to bo dread'
cd than deviltry. Tho despcrato in purposo
aro leading tho desperate in condition, and
when combined they aro fearful ; and if a di
vorce is not obtained between honest need and
organized conspiracy, and the former relieved
soon, and the latter stamped out, wo may
havo a fearful crisis, to meet perhaps in blood.
Thero is no timo for trifling. Tho extremo of
need and of diabolism aro making a June
tion, and liko two charged clouds, when
brought in contact, a tempest will ensue. How
can this standing menace to the publio peace
be averted? Those of tho first class, despcr
ato through want, and whoso conspiracies are
for bread, may bo diverted from this danger
ous allianco with men professionally danger
ous by giving them employment, even if not
very lucrative ; for nothing less than this will
do. Whatovcr will beat back starvation for
themselves and families will keep them pa
tient until this storm bo past.
Tho remedy is for every man who has any
thing to spare, to set bis wits to work to find
something to bo done, even if ho has no im
mediate uso for it. Tho cheapness with
which it can now bo done, and the danger
it will allay, ought to prompt him to have all
that is possiblo mended, renewed or replaced.
This is tho time to repair ; to rebuild ; to
alter ; for it is better to give men a chanco to
live honestly, than through indifference allow
them to bo driven into rebellion with 'society
with tho feeling that they can have nothing to
lose, for revengo is sweet in tho heart driven
to despair. If nothing else can be done havo
your old boots half-solcd, your gearing mend
ed, your winter clothes repaired and scoured,
your carving-knife ground, instead ot sawing
with its nicked edge because the times aro
hard ; get your old fences mended, your
houso painted, glass reset ; tako up tho old
bricks of your pavement, which endanger
your life every wet and freezing day, and put
down flags iu their stead. It may tavo tho
city andlho country from a rebellion. A new
coat will benefit directly about (illy pcrsous,
and scud sunshine into as many hearts.
Let every man and woman who can find
anything to do, that they can by any possibil
ity pay for, havo it done uow. This will start
business by kceing uieu busy. Belter will it
be to pay half price for it than to havo men
idle, plotting against good order J tho most of
tnem aro wiso enough to considcrhalf a loaf
better than no bread. It is time too for those
who havo put their money in seouritios, and
have gone out of legitimate business because
it is perilous and troublesome, to learn that
they cannot livo to themselves, iu this world
where hojics and heart-strings cross each
other. The failures of moneyed institutions
show that the dangers aie by no means confin
ed to legitimate business. You must uso
your wealth for tho deiienden't. It is God's
oeonomythat tho strong shall support tho
weak Will you do it by alms or labor, or
have your substance taken by force ? What
thou docst, do quickly, Presbyterian.
