Missouri Letter.
GRANT CITT, Mo., Jan, Utb, '74.
I EDITOR R*ro*TTA R— Thinking that
i 1 your reader* have thoroughly digested my
last letter, and knowing al*o their eager
ness to read "furrin" correspondence, I
i have again allowed my presumption to
i overcome my Judgment, and hence this
i letter. Your readers will doubtless be
edified (?) beyond measure when they
peruse this fregmentary epistle, written by
i "ex brevities," ewey off in the "puke
slate. I know there is an abiding prqju
dice existing in the mind* of many of the
people of the eastern states against this
i state, and, this too without Just cau*e.
They entertain the ridiculously absurd
idea that Missouri lithe worst governed
State in the Union; that it is the rendezvous
of murderer*, robber* end desperadoes;
that the law* of the state are not enforced
agaitut criminal*, through the fear that
! terrible vmgeace would speedily be visi
ted upon the head* of those who dared to
execute them ; that mob law is the only
law recognised, aud that Judge Lynch is
• the head centre of justice. All litis haunt*
the mind* of the weak-kneed like some
terrible phantasmagoria, and one might
as well ask*auch persona to yield up tbeir
existence as to ask |hem to come to this
state. The recital of the bold and daring
robberies of the notorious James and
Younger brothers, congeal* their blood in
holy horror; yet they will sit down end
reed the papers containing the report* of
the butcheries among the coal miners of
their own state, with apparent relish. 1*
the crime of butchering a doxen men in
the coal mines of Pennsylvania, of a lesser
magnitude, than the simple robbing of an
express car, or the hanging of some des-,
pcrwdo by an outragrd people in Missouri?
The extreme is so manifestly evident that
it needs no comment. The law* of
state, are a* stringent, and are so strictly
enforced a* those of Pennsylvania; yet
this doe* not entirely prevent crime. The;
simple enactment of a law doe* not pre !
vent misdemeanors, nor doc* it* strictest
enforcement keep men from committing
the worst of crimes Men who have been,
reared from tlieir earliest infancy to shun
what is pad, cannot he tuade to forsake
their ways by enforcing laws; such men
will take desperate chances, with the hope
of finally evading the penalty that attach
es to their crimes. Viewing the situation
from the above standpoint, I am convinc
ed that MUrsuri is as safe a state for hon
est, upright and well-intentioned people,
a* any in the Union. Life and property
is as safe here as anywnera. But 1 mast
bring my sciihbiing to a close, as my let
ter has already reached an unpardonable
length. 1 imagine I see the compositor
leaning against hit case trying to decipher
this manuscript If he has the ordinary
virtue* of a printer he will a few ad -i
jevlivrt at my expense. E. S. G.

Onn of (ho saddest phases of Wfiih
iiigton life ia daily pteaeoled at the
free-lunch taldea of our large hotel*.
Here nnc aei-a daily gathered, with a
greed begntteu of want, and which de
. hare all that politrneaa ao becoming
to any one at nn eating table, ineti
whose mission in life ha* been defeat
ed in the uncerUintiet of war and po
litics, and whoae naitiea, though ouct
great, have sunk into obscurity in the
rapid change* of our system of gov
ernment, i'he general and the stair*
man of yesterday come to-day to the
bar-room and aurrreptilioualy seek l
that food which ia intended for regu
lar customer*, and they who once
looked upon the bar keeper aa a low
lived individual now approach him
übaeouiouily, and leave him sneaking-'
ly when he directs them in the act of
oockctiug the cracker* and cheese.
What a *ad commentary upon the vi
cia*iludea of tutu who make life arti i
ficial! The great difficulty ha* beu;
that they have not addressed themeel j
vee when the tide of life waa at it*
flood, to ita true aud serious cuds, audi
now thia mistake comes to them in thia'
mokt humiliating form. The free
lunch table was one ol the institutions)
that did not exist in Shakspeare's
lime, or else we could have had from
that great master a most philosophi
cal free luucher's soliloquy.
llardly has the world become fa
miliar with the wonders of the alec*
trie telegraphic machine, as shown in 1
the operations of the simple Morse in
strument, than it ia again called upon
to witueaa a new marvel that, not so
long ago, would have beeu counted
among the vitiout of a dreamer. To
be able, by the aid of a few glass and
eurtheuware cups, a wire, aud a sim
ple magnet lever and grooved wheel, j<
to send a message under the sea and
across the land, ia wonder enough for ~
a century ; aud yet it has been aurpas
ted by what may justly rank as a
miracle of science. President Orton. j
of the Western Union Telegraph Com- i
pay, in his auuual report of October
14,1874, writes a* followa, regarding
th-se new triumphs of electricians;.)
"The Duplex apparatus of J. 11. <
Stears, by meaai of which two tuea- ,
>3ges are transmitted in opposite direc- *
lions upon one wire at the name time, j
ha* fully sustained the opinion of its :
utility and value which I expressed <
iu my last annual report, But the '
past year has produced an invention j
more wonderful than the Duplex <
Thomas A. Edison and George H
frwoott, the electricians of the com
pany, hare discovered processes and J
invented apparatus, by means of which I
two message* can be sent in the same "
direction, and two others in thcoppo
site direction, kimultaoeously, upon i
one and the same wire. Thia invent
lion, which ibey christened the (Juad '
ruplex, has beeu in successful Opm- '
lion between our New York and Hoe
lon office* for the !at two weeks, and
is satisfactorily performing an amount '
of work upon one wire quite equal to 1
the capacity of four wires worked with 1
the ordinary Morse apparatus." An ]
extended aud Uchuical description of
the*e new machines and method*
would doubtless perplex those of our 1
readers who hava not given to tbesub
ject special attention. The signifi
cance of the improvement may be un
derstood, however, when it is known
that, in place of four wiiea extended '
between New York and Boston, one "
may now be made to ! the wfimel
amount of work in the tame lime. At'
one labia four operators are seated ;
two continually sending and two re
cciving messages over oue and the
same wire, at one and the same time.
DirrtlEßiA.— As there are a num- <
tier of cases of this terrible disease in
our community at the present time,
we copy the following from tbe Will- (
iamsport Sun ;
Editor of the [Miilipsburg Journal: l
I have been spending a few weeks iu
this vicinity, and on visiting among
my friends, I havejound many farui-.
lies who had l*t friend and dear lit '
tie ours by that dreadful disease '
known aa Diptheria and Croup. For ,
the benefit of those persons and all
other* interested in the matter, 1 beg
a brief through your Journal,
lo acquaint them with a safe, simple ]
and certain cure for these maladies. •
It is the application of common tar, j
spread over and folded iu a atrip of '
muslin—to keep it from slicking to, 1
the skin—aud then applied to the
throat or the part most swollen. The ,
tar plaster may ha renewed onca a
day, fot two or three days, and if this I
direction is followed, 1 a* sincerely |
guarantee the lite of the patient, as I ; ,
believe in the efficacy of any human
sgetioy in the Providence a* God, j
having tested it on many occasions iu j
my own family and among my neigh
bors. A PARENT.
NOTE. —We concur fully aud most
cordially, with the writer of the above
article, which we copy from the Phil
ipsburg, (Pa.,) Journal. In our fatnK
ly to-day, there ia one of our aonsj
who was twice reacurd from the grave
through the appliance of tar, when
and after having been given up by
two physicians as incurable of the
diptheria ! Several years ago in Col
umbia county. Mr. Dieterick lost all
his four children by this disease, while
being attended by three doctors, but
when the dreaded affliction entered j
j the family of Mr. Miller, (a naar,
neighbor,) they applied the tar cloth)
lo his children,and they not only all
eawnped death, hut hati only a very
slight attack of diptheria. —EDITOR
