AN ODDSTORY.
ex m r. m,
Tbo popnl.ir billet that murder will
out will bo Btrnncily enough shown in
tbe lollonlnR slttlch:
It Is generally coucetleil, as our noble
poet Sbnktspere says, that crabbed oro
and youth cannot llye together; nnd that
uniting old and young in runrrlago.wbcre
it has been douo, nnd in most cases for
thrift, is extremely reprehensible and
against nature; furnishing occasion, ar it
oftentimes does, for elrifes, jealousies,
desertions, miseries, Bnlcidts nnd even
murders. Tho reason is quite natural
and ncarcfly needs comment. It is not
in the nature cf things that warm sensi
bilities should uuilo in harmony with
natures whom ngo and litno have lii uto
cold and insensible and full of iudiffer
etico to matters nffectitig vnutliful mind!,
oud bodies. Hence it is that marriages
in which there is utile diiparity of curs
are rightfully looked upon uitli disruvm
nud repugnance. But wo dtUy our
story. In 0110 of tho lUiiue pruvincts
there lived a tnnriled conple, seemingly
happy, nlthotiKh tho husband's years
were more tbuti twice that of bis youth
ful spouse. Her marriage to one so
much her senior was effected through
tho directive iLllueuce of her parents,
who saw in the union largo accumulation
of worldly stores nud riche for their
child. Fulso sight 1 They were tillers ol
the soil, nnd had in their employ n young
servant man whoso diligetico was ex
tolled by nil. Why did fnto destine hini
to bo then? They were nmrriud but
something over ft J ear when it wtis given
out Ihnt the Lusbaud, bsing full of years,
had suddenly bickened and died. News
of his ill nth caused no especial surprise,
it beiug uuthought of among the good
ueighbors that it could be otherwise than
natural.
Time grew npice, nnd a becoming
hour saw her Iho wi'e of the young ser
vnnt man. Their years of wedded life
ilew on. Surrnuuded with tho comforts
that their thrilty yearn of toil had Recur
ed, their lives seemed to emhrnce univer
sal happiness. Iiut was it so? A score ol
yoirs had now elapsed since her former
husbiud's decease. Little now was his
namn cr tho hiibj el of death men
ioned by nny of bN former friends in
life. In death he was quite, forgotten.
And bad it not been for n singular clr.
o innlanca tho subject of his dying, in
tho tomb, miijbt have remained hushed
forever! It was this: Tho sejiton in mak
iug n grsvo alongside of tho dead man's
.'or this is n customary manner of dis
position nnd burial of the dead in those
countries accldently met with tho np.
per par! of his remains, which, curiously
viewing, bia sight was ruoro than amazed
nt actually seeiug the skeleton head
movoal intervals. For nniualunt dumb
foondodly gazing at its strange action,
trembling fear iscizid him; and, without
stopping to investigate tho cause of the
phenomenon ho nt once repaired with
nil possible speed to tho parish priest, tn
whom be earnestly related the marvelous
occurrence. Tho priest, unaccustomed
tu believe in things of so sensational
character, which by some nro believed
In have no existence ut nil, regarded the
old man's story lucredulously, and was
at first disposed to pav no attention to
his importunity to nccompauy him back
to the grave to see himself tho truth of
what ho related, Howuver, observing
tho man's uuusu tl inruestness, l.e nt List
consented to go. Upon nrrivlug. he in
deed saw that tbe simplo sexton hail
spoken from the evidence of his sens-s
lint satisfied that it could be found to
proceed lrom natural causes, and wh.it
bad filled the humble sexton with won
der had no connection in fact with
ageucies of another world, he ut once tip
proaehed nud made an examination, and
found within the bead ft mouse's titsl
a revelitiou that quickly dispelled nil
previous mystery, let, whiio he was
slill narrnnly peering within the hollow
cavity, doubtless musing on the nil en
grossing power of death, the uumukcr of
breathing things, he saw what suddenly
tilled hint with dread nnd horror, ami
crowded his miud with d irk conclu.ious,
grave speculations, and shnnowiug fits
picions. It was n nail that had been
driven deeply into Ihe bead! Presently
bethinking who the man was, bis sudden
death, uud his widow's subsequent mar
riage with tbe young serving-man, bis
mind misgave him that a foul deed had
slept long unpunished, nnd suspicion
poiutod to them. It could be nhowu
with rensonableuess that motives were
not wauling toward the perpetration ol
tbe horrid crime. Untimely and by
heartless treachery had the old man lain
in death.
The priest, communicating the whole
circumstances of tho nfT.tr to tbe proper
authorities, officers were immediately
dispatched to mike the arrest. Accost
coating tho faithless wife at ber owu
door she, burdened with her wretched
load of guilt, divined tho motive of their
coming, nnd, without waiting for them
to disclose tbe object of their presence,
openly confessed the murder of bor
former bnsbnud.
hucb was tho sttoog conception of her
own gntlt, and ber constant dread or iU
detection, that it ij wore probable, if
Ihe i' rave, bad still kept its secret, and
the officers nt any other time, iuofUcially
meeting with ber nt her own door, or
perhaps eltowbere, she, sin-bannted,
would have made the same guilty con.
fesslou. Hr seconil hntbunl, bavins
no hand in Ilia murder, though nwars nl

What We MAM it Haw.
Tbo Boston JcunKAL, which has bad a
great deal to say about what is called tbe
"Cleveland scaudal," asks us to investi
gate tho matter for ourselves, nud says it
' knows it can lead to only ono result,"
relying on our promise not to "support
n notorious llbertlno nnd profligate," as
candidate for the Presidency of tbo
United States. There lint been from
the beginning but little to investigate
and that little we havo investigated to
our own satisfaction. It Is admitted by
Ojyernor Cleveland's friends (hat twelvo
years ngo he fotmod an irregular connec
tion with n widow, uith two children,
tho eldest M years old; tbnt sbn wits n
person of intemperate habits, and that
the paternity of a child bom subsequent
ly was doubtful, but bo accepted it, nud
mado provision for tbe child; that, after
sufferim much annoyance from ber
nna ol the natural nud com non penalties
of such errors--and nftcr snlistjiug her
brother in-law, who appeared on the
scene 11s her protector, that ho had be
haved fairly toward ber, be laid the
wholo matter before Mr, Biirroughes, a
lawyer in high standing in linilalo; that
Mr. Burroughes advised him to leave it
to him, nnd thereafter took charge of it;
that he (air. jlurroughes) conceiving th
mother, for the reason given nbove, un
lit to have tho custody of tho child, placed
it iu nn orphan asylum, the mother con
senliug thereto, nud making, ns wo un
derstand it, a legal surrender oi the child
for that purpose, nud occasionally visit
ing it nt the asylum afterward; that she
suLscqnenlly stolo nud carried It off from
tho nsvlum; that Mr. Burroughes was
uolitled of tbo facts by the authorities ol
the us) In in; whereupon, acting on bis
own responsibility and without Mr.
Cleveland's knowledge, he employed n
detecttvo to discover and look after the
child; that in one of the detective's vis
its he found tho mother suffering fiom
delirium tremens nud threatening to kill
Ihe child, which lay on the iljor; that
he carried her off thou to the Inebriuto
Asylum for treatment, nud she stayed
theru until aho was cured, anil no lnuger,
and Iho child was reetored toils previous
guardians. Tho lawyer who noted for
Ihe .votnan in oue stage of tbo nffitr has
formally nnd iu writing repudiated nny
charge of seduction or brutal) of promlen
of nny kind. Tho family acknowledged
that Mr. Cleveland treated her generous
ly. So much for the chnrgo of seduction
and kidnapping, which nnny newspapers
have been spreading. It waa product d
originally by n cheap aud nasty journal in
lluffalo ns salvation from impending
denth. nnd hns ltttlo other evidence to
rest on except tho bare Bfscrllou of Bev
Mr. Ball, n Biptist miuister in Buffalo,
who appears to dnbbla a good deal iu
politics. Mr. Ball has repeated his story
several times, but he does not supply
fresh reasons for believing it. If Cleve.
laud is n "notorious profligate nnd liber
tine," why did Mr. Ball not know it
when be was elected Mayor of his own
city in 18SI, and when ho was elected
Governor of tho Slate in 1882 And if he
did know il, why did he keep silent?
'Well, but," we shall bo asked, "does
not the charge against Cleveland, as you
yourselves slate nud admit it, disqunlily
him, in your estimation, lor the Prcsl
dency of tho United Slates?" Wo nns
wer frankly: "Yes, if his opponent be
free from this stain, and as good a man
in nil other ways. " Wo should like to
stecandidates fur the Presidency models
ol all tbo virtues, puro as tbe snow and
stendlaslas the eternal hills. But, when
the alternative is a man who, as the Buf
falo ExpitE8 apolitical opponeut said
immediately nfler bis nomination, "that
Ihe people ol BulTilo bad known him ns
one of their worthiest cilizjns, one ol
tlieirminlicst men, faithful to his clients,
faithful to his Irieuds nud faithful to
every public Irust," nud of whom the
lliiffalo Commercial, another political
opponent, said that in opposing him "it
would not detract ono jot or little Irom
tbe well-earned fame of tbe distinguished
geutlemnu who honored the opposition
by bearing its standard," a good sou nnd
good brother, nud unmarried in order
that bo might bo tho better son nud
brother, against whom nothing can hi
slid except that lie has not been proof
against one of tbe must powerf it temp
tations by which human nature is assail
ed;ornman convicted out of bis owu
mouth of having publicly lied in order
to bide bis jobbery in offlce, of having
offered bis judicial decisions as n sign of
his possible usefulness to railroad spec
ulators in case thoy paid him his price,
of trading iu ohartcrs which had beeu
benefited by lfgiUtiou in which be took
put, aud of having broken his word ol
honor lu order to destroy documentary
evidence of his corruption n . man who
has accumulated n fortune in a few years
on the salary of a Congressman Ibm
wo Biy emphatically no, ten thousand
times no. We should be ashamed oi
ourselves if we bad any other answer to
make, nnd are shocked nud amazed to
bear that there are scores of clergymeu
nil over the oouutry advising people who
earo lor morality to choose the trickster
and jobber because be is chaste before
tbo honest man, faithful to every pnblio
trust, becauso be hag been weak before
a passion of which everybody knows tbe
force.
We bad supposed the reasou of this
was so obvious that it did not need to
be stated, CleveUnit'n virtues nre those
which bind human society togotber, and
in which States tire founded and milu
ttiiued. There has been no great bene
factor of the human race who bis not
beeu truthful, faitblnl to his trust, dis
interested, self-denying. Tnera have
beeu very few who have been rhnste.
Blaine's vices nre those by which Gov
eramecti are overthrown, States brought
to naught and the haunts of commerce
turned into dens of thieves The stau-
dird by which boims ministers now pro
pose to exclude CleviUu-J from high
place would have prevonted Washington,
Franklin, Jefferson, Hamilton, not to
go any further, from taking any promi
nent part in the foundation of tho Ameri
can Republic. It would have excluded
from office in England nearly every great
statesman nnd reformer of tho last bun
drod ycarB, except, perhaps, Homily,
Wilberforco nnd Gladstone. It would
lnve visited nearly every prominent pol
itician iu tbo Republican parly since
18C0 with popular odium. It would, had
the Democrats chosen to apply it, have
defeated ono Republican candidate for
the Presidency by charges worse by ftr
than Cleveland's, In that they added the
sin of broken vows to tbe sin of inconti
nence.
We nro not defending Incontinence.
Chastity is a groat virtue; but every man
kuows iu bis heart tbnt it is not tbo
greatest of virtues; that offenses ngalntt
it havo often been consistent with the
possession of all tho qualities which en
noble bnraau nature nud diguify buuinu
life and make human progress possible.
It ought be preached nnd practiced by
oytry man to the utmost of bis ability,
but no ono ought to preach it with nny
other motive than the spread of vir'ue,
aud least of all for tho purpose, as in the
present casc.of making some of tbo basest
of yices tbe vices which sap everything
that is valuable iu society and politics
seem respectable, rreachiug of this sort
nt this time is cant, nnd cnut iu its most
loathsome form, fur its fills every house-
bold in tho land with filthy suggestions
and insinuations, turns tbo press into a
common fewer, nud converts scores of
oditnrs into hypocrites, who must blush
sn secret over their ridiculous serunus
nud Ihelr stimulated righteousness. Wo
ill not for our part help the Republican
party at this crisis iu tin attempt to cap
ture tho Presidency for a trickster, ns
Jiishua captured Jericho, by the aid of a
harlot. Great as its limits iirc.it desorves
n less ignominious end than this. New
