ptimiilaVinc t-tiis mania, ae that grow
inr. oat or our late citil war. Men
grown familiar wilh tbe sight of blood,
Iit bcom indiHerent to the eight
of even innocent blood. The violence
that storms over fields of carnaire, bas
perpetuated and diffused itself orer
I the eeronor fields of social peace and
domestic tranquility. Sons lift their
hands against their fathers and imbrue
Stlioir fingers in brothers' blood. Wives
hack to pieces husbands, and husbands
bury hatchets and axon in the brains
ofwivos. Daughtors pour molten lead
into the ears of dyiug mothers, and
household domestics pierce with butch
crknives their mistresses, inflicting as
many mortal stabs an those under
which'Osar fell at the base of Pom
py's statue. It is absolutely stagger
ing to be perpetually confronted with
such a catalogue of blood. It is a
J perfect' muster-roll of slaughterings
and poisonings, and almost literal
I drawings and quarterings, flared be
I fore our eyes. The fountains of do
I Dieslio affection appear to be cora
f pletely drying up. Fireside place
I seems to be taking wings and flying
3 to the uttermost ends of the earth.
I Sons are alienated from their fathers.
iAVives elope from their husbands. A
confusion worse than the wrangling
i tongues at the Tower of Babel, seems
j to have smitten the community every-
I where, and a wide-spread, raving
diabolism appears in all directions to
dominate the land. What can be tbe
inciting cause of this overflowing bar
vest of crime 1 bat great national
sin have we committed f From what
department of God's moral economy
dues this terribly chastening influence
proceed f Have we committed sins
in the face of high Heaven, and in
the very sight of the Divine counte
nance J Ilave we challenged the
judgments of the Almighty in our
mad lust for wealth, and the glory of
a amtinguisbea name r We fear that
some of these offences may be truly
charged to our account, whatever
influence they may have bad in de
veloping the present all pervadibg
insanity for the commission of crime.
Our abounding material prosperity
seems to have sapped awav.toa lunre
I extent, all the foundations of national
t moral life. e have followed in the
labyrinthine ways of frauds and de
ceptions and tread arics. Truth and
honor and manly laith and noble in
tegrity seem to have lost their charm
to fascinate". But. the more immedi
ate practical cause of this comprehen
sive criminal epidemic, is beyond nil
question, the late war from which the
nation hassorecantlyemerged. From
that war has grown the mass of efope
ments that load, and of euicidos that
darken the columns of newspspsrs.
From that war has grown the des
tructive assaults on life and property
that are dow so rife throngh tbe land,
lien accustomed for years to deal
with human lifo and property hy tha
summary process of war, inevitably
perpetuate, in multitudes of instances.
the same contempt tor me ngnis 01
both property and lilo, long aftor that
war has formally ceased.
The babite of wbolosalo sacrifice
contracted in war, are brought boms
to the quiet shades of domestic life.
Conjugal alienations grew op during
the war. Wives are tempted to de
pravity during the abence of their
Lukbands, and husbands grow callous
and indifferent by virtue of tbe Kama
absence. Meanwhile household alien
ations and jealousies sprout up and fill
the same dread interval. Sons grow
into disrespect for their fathers, and
wives lose faith and confidence in their
husband. Here then we have just
the combination of circumstances,
especially auspicious for the produc
tion of the crimes to which we have
been referring. Wives are ready to
run away from their husbands, and
sons are ready to alar their fathers.
Husbands aie ready to shoot their
wives' paramours, at.d paramours are
ready to blow their own brains out.
Children are ready to cut each other's
throat, and the whole saturnalia of
slaughtering and poisoning is ready
to open its fearfully bloody carousal.
The prospect is sad in the extreme to
contemplate, and calls tor a remedy
prompt and radical to arrest the fierce
fanaticism. All that Is good anj pure
and true and virtuous in the land,
must combine in one compact mass,
with locked shields, and confront the
raging spirit with the whole unani
mous moral power of the community.
We know not that this remedy can
prove erTective,and perhaps the deep,
distressing malady must be left, to be
j handled with efficiency only by tbe
healing influence of time. But we
1 are sure that no influence less than
that above indicated, can produce any
present permanent reform. The whole
i moral power of the community must
: b summoned to the rescue. The sur
viving virtue of tbe people must com
bine in one unanimous effort. They
must set tbeiriecee in one solidified
front against the whole riotous mob
"of crimes and vices, and then perhaps
the fierce storm may be partially
'allayed. But nothing short of such
o earnest, determined effort can
tach tbe root of the disease. May
od in his infinite clemency inspire
the publio heart with thia lofty reso
lution, and thereby save this nation
Sfrora tho consequences of their sins.

Home in the "lift Society."
Tbe autumnal equinox obiihIIv marks
the dividing line of tho fashionable
worm between the season at the sea
side and the season in the city.
The cold breezes that sweep up
from along the shore, and the noisy
waves mat attend the periodical storm,
utter admonitions to society that it is
time to return to their winter quar
ters. And tbe fair and fragile pack
up their summer fineries and set tbe
caravan in motion towards the city.
And tbe complacency and indifference
with which these changes are made
from the country to the town, and
from the town to the country again,
and among the shining marks that
ten us now injinerent the generations
about us, rising and risen, are to
those sacred sentiments about Home,
which are so often in the hearts and
and mouths of our grandfathers.
llorae, to the young girl of tho
"Best Society," is'whcre she changes
her clothe and sleeps. What docs
this comfortable looking and fastidi
ous multitude that we see driving up
from their cottage on the beach, to
their mansion in the avenue know
of Home f These ancient ladies and
gentlemen who bow and smirk and
smile, through their rheumatic pains,
at each other and rub their poor old
toes wun nannoi ana tickle themselves
with the idea that they have blood
which elevatest which everybody
hasn't got, which is indispensable,
which makes life enJurublc. Or what,
of sacred Home, know this rattling,
chattering, wasteful cronn of the
younger aristocracy? young ladies
ana gontlemon who have learned that
the most tangible and unquestionable
right of Blood is the possession of
Money and who are considerably
more disposed to spend the latter
than to boast of the former. Home,
after all, is not built. Bricks and
mortar don't make it and yet some
beloved woman's smile may croate it
It may not exist within the snarble
manor of the rich and great and in
the tiny cradlo that holds the idol of
two lives it may be found. It is the
briefest spot of earth sometimes; for
it is the hallowed corner where the
darling of our nflectiona is. Home is
the Edon of earth. Since it is no
longer home. ' Tho babe finds it upon
a mother a bosom, and it may be
recognized the wide world over by
the responsive beating of a heart.
Home, to the young man of the ton,
is tho place where ho can't swear and
mustn t smoke. We muy gloss those
staring facts over with ail the honied
phrases in the world, and try to bent
itowa. . hnl tha
truth still remains ; there is no such
place as home in Society. There is
no family gathering beneath a beam
ing mothers eye, such as the humble
daughter and son of the middle life
knows. No advising, and acceptance
of advice, between parent nnd child.
No looking upon tho parcnial thres
hold as a sacred altar, within which
all tbe symbols of grace and purity,
and honor chastening pleasure are to
be recogniiod and worshipped.

The mutual endurance of protracted
trial will bind hearts together more
closely often than the hesrts them
selves are aware of at The lime, ao
sence, too, will cover over little differ
ences of disposition, tho wear and tear
of daily contact, and tho inevitable,
though often invisible conflict of the
frequently opposing interests of sol fish
wills. It is a blessed work that Time
does in burying any remembrance of
human frailties that mav have existed,
and cherishing only the better, nobler
deeds end influences of our lives. We
forirct the little weaknesses, and recall
only the strength of old friends, when
eeparalion is broken and union comes
again. Ana our tympanums are en
larged, and effection is rekindled, and
the greeting is generous and heartfelt.
So it was that we came back to find
open hearts and open homes on all
sides, wun not one innarmonioun tuicc
in tho midst of this faithful and beloved
charge. It is always worth, while for
one to go back occasionally, 10 aiscover
by the test how true is human nature
especially in Christian people where
it has been regenerated to the higher
instincts and sentiments of life. One
knows not how many and how sincere
are the friendships of life, which we
are constantly forming, if we seek to
deal justly and tru ly by our fellow-men,
until we come to review tnem together,
and to measure them by a common
staudard ia Mr hearts. Then the
response comes in ardour, uiiconcealed
ana unaffected.

The Dmom of tht Atfro,
.None but the most depraved would
urge a measure of retaliation merely
for the suke of spite ; and on the other
band, iione but the most cowardly
would hesitate to use the power of
bis arm for the protection of bis per
son. And so it is w hen such occasions
arise mankind f.re compelled to obey
the impulses of resentment and em
ploy the means which they sugpest
as mere measures of safety. The
course of the negroes in this Stale in
the late elections arrayed as they
were in solid phalanx against the in
terests, nay the property and' even
the liven, of the white people, presents
tho most irrefragable proof that their
hostility to us is instinctive and ine
radicable. Nothing, therefore, re
mains for us to do but to meet tho is
sue they have thu thrust upon ut and
defend ourselves like men.
W of Virginia have a great and
glorious country, a commonwealth
unsurpassed in the advantages of soil
climate and production, a population
unequalled in all the element that
overcome difficulties and make a com
munity rich and prosperous: Shall
we permit these tilings to be lost to
us forever? Shall we tamely submit
to the subvursion of all our prosperity
and the hopes of the future by a hand
ful of artful knaves, whouse the brute
force of number to overcome our in
telligence, talent and worth, by out
voting us with a bordo of ignorant
and stupid negroes f
Fortunately, the means of our de
fence are not those of violence and
bloodshed, but the mere regulation of
our domestio arrangements. As his
tory presents no parallel of the black
ingratitude which has characterized
our domestics and employees, in turn
ing upon us and falling into the train
ot wretches who are on principled apos
tate white men In most cases, and tho
most depraved of their own race in
others, whose appeals were based
alone upon implacable hostility to
tho whites, so we should present the
only instance of a people submitting
to death and destruction without an
effort for safety, if we now permit our
patience to await our impending exe
cution. The negroes have shown us
that "blood i thicker than water"
with them, and we can Qnly accept
the issuo and treat them with defen
sive severity, differing not tndeea
from the spirit, but only in the meas
ure, from the treatment which our
English friends used towards the Se
poys of India when white safety de
manded Biitish severity. As wo have
said, we need not use the means of
violence and bloodshed aBottrqefcnee,
but only the simple remedy ot conn
ning our selections of domestics to
those only who are friendly disposed
towards us, whether black or white.
Let us give employment to, and there
by support, those only who are not
arra)'i-a against our peace and welfare
The lest of this may be easily made
counting those who belong to tho ae
crot societies and vote the '-Hunnicutt
ticket" as our avowed enemies, and
those who do neither as our friends.
Let us disehargo the former and em
ploy the latter. If there be not
enough of the latter at present, the
deficiency will soon be suppliod by

always open their political meetings
with prayer. They have nn overplus
of ex-army chaplains, who attend
the political gatherings for the pur
pose of enlisting the Almighty in tboir
electioneering schemes. These Holy
Willies open the mooting by making
to God a rather prejudiced statement
of tbe status of tho political affuirs of
tbe country. They then makeaeuo-
cinct statement of the wants of their
