The Southern editors and orators are advocating the suppression of the desperadoes of the South. It is the duty of the Republican party to bring about a state of peace and prosperity in the South as far as lies within its power. It did not war against the Confederacy to crush any class ; its object was to crush out the new government, and place all classes on an equality before the law. Spiritualism Dethroned by Mc Clure. McClure's Times has done a splen did work in Philadelphia, in exposing the fraudulent work that underlies the action of Spiritualists. Thou sands have been duped by the mani festations of mediums, and the late materializations, so called, have been swelling the number of converts to a vast multitude. The dethronement of the fraud, en the consciences of men and women came at the oppor tune time, just when it seemed about io roll a wave of trickery," jugglery, over the country that would have made spiritual tluves of tens of thou sands. If CoL Med are has done no vther good in this life, it is enough that he has dethroned Spiritalisni for the period, at least, of a generation of time. The jugglers are making war on the Colonel in the courts. Anti-Republican or Democratic. Every county, all townships have laws that provide for the mainte nance of people, who through the misfortunes of ill health, etc., cannot maintain themselves. Yet with that provision for the unfortunate, there are men found in every county, in every township, who are willing to ask CoKgresa to pass a general law to provide for the settlement of every man out of employment, on the pub lic lands. There has been no well denned plan as yet proposed, but enough of the mind of certain citi zens is known to make it clear that they would gladly receive their main tenance from the government The rules and regulations, or laws that were in force during Feulal days, were nothing more than such a cen tralization of power that certain men Nobles maintained all the people who lived on their estates. To le sure, no one proposes a return to the government of Eeuilal Jays, but it were lest to look well into all pro posed legislation with a scrutinizing look, so that the government le not turned in its motion toward princi pies that are anti-Republican or anti Demoeratic. Law as a Preventive. Tbe Jorlh .Imerican says: The voice of the turtle and of tbc demagog ue in this favored lao J are usually beard topetber. Whoever cares to listen can hear the voices of these twins now. The turtle woo its mate, and the dem agogue woos the soft beaded and the Unthinking. Tbo language of the one is attuned to strains of love; that of the other to the harsher discords of 81 fish ambition. Hut the soft headed and the unthinking are not musical experts, and it matters little if a few discords creep in, if only tbe wooer flatters their self love The demagogue was in bad case prior to tbe Cotiuuuuistio demon stration. Tiiat was bis opportunity, and he pounced upon it witb as much avidity as a cat pounces upon a mouse. It was a delectable sight to see hiui circulating among tbe "poor w irking tnen," as be called them, though it cm a noticeable sight that be depended more npon firirg tbe hearts of the che valiers d'iudustry than upon appeals to the reason of the real workers. Tbe first suggestion of the dema gogue is that there must be a law in the interest of labor. Legislation, he etys in eff-ct, has been shaped to en rich the few and impoverish tbe many. And now, says he, the laboring masses must band together, and strike together and strike together, in order that they tuay effect a release from bondage. It wo-itjj-jfe tms insolent meddler atiu uiis(th.icf-maker good to take him .Liu. by the ear and lead him somewhere where be can look at the fasts. He would not, ptobably, know a fact from a turnip: but it might educate him a little to contemplate truth. In tbe first place there lias never been a coun try jrbere equality of opportunity exis ted in so large a degree as in this. There are literally-no legal hindrances to proprietorship a regards and citizen. Any roan is free to accumulate, to gain a proprietary right in tbe soil, to buy aud sell, and to embark in any btaocb of business for which be may cherish a liking. There has never been any legislation intended to hinder, or that did really hinder any man from doiug any of these thing). Land mon opoly is unknown. A good deal is said about "land sharks," but then any man can be a land fchark if be has the desire to be one, and the pluck and perseveranae to pres. his suit. The truth is that in all countries, climes and ages tbe many have been comparatively poor. Only tbe few have been comparatively or actualy rich. The reason why the uuany have al ways IvCS comparatively poor is that the fenny are and always have fceea improvident, or lacy, or worse: It is no nxjre possible to reach equal ity of estate through legislation than it ta possible to tatake . ien intellectual morally and physically equal by the anie means. Tbe story ot tbe man of ahoddy who wanted bis daughter educa ted to tbe highest notch, applies to this case. The acner to whom tbe young woman was assigned did not have much success. "Anything that money eaa buy," said tbe ambitious parent, " tbe gal can have." "I think," replied the teacher, "that she lacks capacity " "Then buy her a capacity," replied tbe father. Hut neither uiouey nor law can purchase capacity. Law cannot put a fool in business af fairs in the way of muting his fortune. It cannot give a man habits of thrift. It can secure a title to any one who wants it to tbe soil; but it cannot pre vent the same person from wasting his substance or alienating his title. There are men who would run a splendid farm iuta bankruptcy in aix months, and too amount of law can keep sucb a man on bis feet. There are nthec Htcn w jo can accumulate even on the poorest ten acres. Such a man does not want any legislation, for he is a law unto himself. Legislation, cannot remedy defects of nature, it can only interpose to save men from the worst consequences of their weakness, incapacity or fully. And that is all. Law does that when it exempts a certain amount of proper ty from levy, and when it interposes be tweeu a rapacious creditor and a man In frill! K!i with n innnuittnn n it an. ( ... .

Last Sabbath morning Rev. T. Sher lock, of the Methodist church, preach ed a sermon founded on the text : If a man die, shall he live again I" Job 14:14. The THEME deduced therefrom, is, or as preached, was, tbe immortality of the soul. The introductory comprehended a re view of the doubts and uncertainty tbat have eiisted in tbe minds of tnen iu every age from the time that Job ut tered the text of the sermon, to this day and generation. Tfl -day men ask the same question, and to-day, as io the past, there is bo certain answer, through the icfeari bes of science, through the philosopica! investigations of philoso phers, or through the works of students. All these have failed to establish to a eertaioty tbe immortality of the S6ul. They have, however, done much to strengthen the doctrine of the future life of the soul. From all the researches of reason strong evidence of such ex istence is drawn. Man declares that there is an immortality of soul. 1st. From Human Reason. Human reason itself goes a long diitauce to ward establishing the immortality of the soul. Nothing on earth is endowed with such reas.w as man. Animals and fowls have instinct, but at birth it is as penetrating as at the age of ma tnr:ty. i-uch is not the case with hu man reason. Human reason has no limit scarcely to its power. Tbe hea vens above and the earth below may be intelligently mapped out. The power of human reason could not have been bestowed if its existence were iu tended only for use on this earth. 2nd. From the Human Heart man declares the existence of a soul. The grief, tbe sorrow, the longings, tbe as pirations of a human heart, who can measure them ? There is nothing within tbe field of the knowledge ot human kind tbat manifests such long ings, sucb aspirations. All these mani festations, that are found in nothing else of amimated nature, excepting man, causes biiu to declare it as an evidence of the immortality of the soul. 3rd. From Human Conscience, man declares tbe immortality of the soul. The human conscience, what a wonder ful quality it is. How every man and woman has felt its approving or disap proving power, aud how through its workings the mind unconsciously comes to believe in the moral government of GoJ, or some unseeu, all powerful power. Tbe human conscience in its workings causes men to declare that the soul of man is immortal. 4th. The Dignity of Man, or human nature, declares tbo immortality of the soul. Among all the astounding mani festations of tbc mind of mau, noue is o overshadowing as the unseen but positive sense or feeling that sometimes declares to people that some great cal amity or some great good has befallen member- of a family, or dear friends, who are away from home. There are hundreds, yea thousands, of well au thenticated cases on record, when cal amity to relatives and frieuds has been ( made uiatufest through unseen spirit ; ual power. At this juncture of the ; sermon the Reverend geutlemau related j a couple of well authenticated cases of misfortune that befell members of fain- ilies away from home, and bow certain members of tbe family at home bad re ceived tokeus through an unseen spirit ual feeling that danger threatened the absent one. That was soul power. Who knows that tbe soul des not sometimes really leave the body to com municate its danger, and its hive to loved ones- How many millions of un authenticated cases of soul powqr are felt but never tnentioued. How lar do they enter into the workings of every day life. These unseen powers dignify man or human nature, and cause men to declare that the soul of mau is im mortal. But still, with all this powerful evi dence formulated, a doubt may spring op in the mind. Indeed such doubt docs find life in tbe minds of some men, and they are doubters still. These points are all-powerful supporting be liefs to tbe christian man and woman ; but still without them the immortality of the soul is made clear BT THE REVELATION OP THE BIBLE, and they who believe in the Bible are soundly grounded in the belief of the immortality of the soul. It teaches CHRIST A.I THE RESURRECTION, and from that teaching ccnics a belief in immortality. There is a soul power in the belief, that is imparted by Deity himself through Jesus Christ. Tbe sojourn, of forty days, of CLrist ou the earth, after his resurrection is a revela tion that cannot be doubted ; there is no uncertainty about it. It is belief on the best of human testimony as to Christ's resurrection, and the honest believer in tbat resurrection receives a respouse of soul-feeling and satisfac tion that cannot be drawn from any other source. He, tbe speaker, bad personally experienced the soul-power of the belief in Revelation and Christ. In tie PERORATION the Reverend gentleman again referred to the want of belief in the resurrec tion, and the want of belief in revela tion making Christ the mediator, by wbieb the soul is purged, cleansed, and fitted for tbe borne of the blessed. lie took paper for an illustration. What is paper ? We all know. We all know and see bow useful it is. The State uses it ; the Church uses it ; com merce uses it ; we caunot get along without it, and yet, what is paper ! Only filthy rags. It is gathered from all ends of tLe earth. The rag-picker takes it from the gutter, and by tbe purging process, end workings of hu man machinery it is converted into beau tiful and useful paper. No one doubts the conversion of filthy rags into clean, white paper. We believe that paper is thus made because we have been so told. How many have seen or experi enced the manufacture of paper ? We are told in Revelation of the immor tality of the soul. We believe Reve lation, and tbat Christ is the illustrious example of tbe Resurrection, and the mediator. It is not bard to believe, and there is a glorious promise in the resurrection, as well as a dreadful pen alty, full of everlasting wrath to tbe unbeliever.

How is this for enterprise A young gentlemen called last Saturday at the residence of his sweetheart in Shoemak ersville, Berks couuty, with a fiue rig, consisting of a fist horse and piano box buggy, for the purpose ol taking her to a pic-nio at Windsor Castle.

A special from Leavenworth says a private letter received at Fort Kilis, Kansas, gives an account of a f ght be tween cattle thieves aud a party of pursuers in Cheyenne county, Kansas, some days ago. It seems tbat a large number of cattle have been stolen during the past summer, and it was finally determined by the herders and owners to put a stop to it and make an example of the thieves. In this instauce it is said some seven thousand cattle were run off from western Kansas and Colnrada by twelve robbers, who start ed north with them. A party of fifteen rangers, splendidly armed and mounted started in pursuit, and after a hard ride of five days camo upou tbe thieves in the extreme northwestern part of Kcnsas; surrounded them while at sup per; killed seven of them; bung another to a tree and recovered all tbe cattle. None of the rangers were hurt. Afr Advertisement VALUABLE FARM AT PUBLIC SALE.
