If one is .sympathetic he is tolerably sure to be unjust, and if lie is unsympathetic he cannot help beino; unjust. One man cannot understand or appreciate another unless there is some bond of sympa thy between them, enabling each to see as the other sees and feel as he feels. lut society is so organized that we cannot deal with one person alone without ull'ectinj; others. If we allow sympathy with one person to control us, disregarding all others and paying no attention to the dic tates of reason, we are almost sure to do injustices of which, however, we may not be cognizant. Viien a man has committed a great crime and has been committed to prison to expiate his offense, everybody at first approves; but arter a time his case inspires the pity of the sympa thetic. The criminal's family suffers in material comforts because the bread winner is absent, as well as from the disgrace he has brought upon them, aud for their sakes the unthinking seek to procure a pardon for the prisoner. They are kindly and sympathetic and, when they are opposed, rejoice that they are not as other men, and yet ther may be do ing a great deal of mischief. They are, in fact, breaking down the laws of the land and helping to make dis tinction between the criminals who have influential friends and the un fortunates who have been as outcasts from birth. As a matter of reason, the cultiva ted man with an assured income and hosts of friends, who goes wrong, is much less deserving of sympathy than the poor wretch brought up to a life of misery and crime. Yet the sympathetic, who yield to impulses instead of beinir jruided bv reason. always exhibit greater interest in the criminal of high degree than in a commonplace thief. And in sympa thizing with him they forget to sym AT? aaarO ! pathize with his victims. They will Or lFuUi0 I help the murderer and his family. ! hut nav no attention to the relatives of the murdered man, impoverished perhaps by his sudden death; they will help the embezzler to get out of jail, but will do nothing to relieve the distress of the scores or hun dreds who were robbed of their little savings through his rascality. "What is worst of all, they help to break down respect for and dread of the law. One of the purposes of the punishment awarded to crime is to deter others from entering upon a criminal career. Hut when they see that influence, especially political in fluence, and the clamorings of sym pathetic friends are sufficient to un lock prison doors, they are less afraid to take the risk of being found out, and that is all that they dread. Nearly all criminals who have led double lives and appeared to be non - est and respectable have had in the beginning atdeast what seemed to them to be an honest purpose. Thev j intended to use for a little time only the funds of the bank or public office intrusted to them, and then to re place all that had been taken, keep ing for themselves the profits. A fall in the stock market or some such accident has revealed their criminal ity, and then their sympathetic friends get to work to relieve them from deserved punishment. And every time they succeed they encour age others to take similar risks, with two chances in their favor first, that they will not be found out, and, second, that if found out, they will be enabled to escape severe punish ment through the unwise assistance of sentimentalists. Whenever ap peals are made to our sympathies in such cases duty requires that we shall seriously consider the effect of any actionrwe may take in the mat- ter, and that instead of allowing j sympathy to control us we shall !-imn it 11 11 (1 or the control of and of our sense of justice.

THE UNCERTAINTY OF LIFE. Tlif Recent Demise tT Eiiirciie Field Sets Arp to Ruminating:. Oh, what a pity of it; Eugene Field is dead. "When everybody loves a man it does seem hard that he should die. Just in his prime and getting riper, purer, mellower as years rolled on. "We of the South had learned to love him for he was gentle and kind to us. He loved Grady and Grady loved him. They are together now somewhere. I wonder how their spirits met and what they said. It is hard on the South to lose two such friends. They were of the same age lacking a few months. Love, kindness, tender ness of heart are redeeming traits in human nature, and they had them. I have been reading "Wallace Reed's pleasant reminiscence of Henry Grady and it carried me back to the hard days when Henry, like Field, was struggling against fate to make his paper a success. The merchants had not then learned the value of ad vertising, and Henry pleaded in vain for a more liberal patronage. A leading merchant who claimed to be his friend stubbornly declined to give him a big i:ad" and said it would be money thrown away, for nobody read them. "Don't read them !" exclaimed Henry, "don't read them ! Well, I will show you." Next morn ing's paper contained a short edito rial on cats and told how cat fur had recently come into great demand in fashionable circles in Xew York and how the long coarse hairs were elim inated and the real fur was made in to tippets and muiVs and every fash ionable lady wore a feline, etc. Not far oil'in another column was a dis played advertisement that said: 'Vantf.1 1.0O0 eats for which So cents each will he paid." The merchant's name was signed to it. By noon the cats began to roll in. Small boys, white and black, brought them in baskets and bags. For a while the merchant enjoyed the joke, but soon got tired and went away to dinner. Uy the time he returned the boys and darkies from the suburbs were coming in and the sidewalk was blockaded. Henry had laughed until lie was ex hausted and sat on a window sill across the street, threatened, he said, with a cataleptic fit. Neigh boring merchants and their clerks gathered around and laughed and shouted and cried at every new ar rival of cats. As fast as the mer chant drove oil' one crowd another filled their places. He armed him self with a big stick, but at last he closed his doors in sheer despair and ght relieved him from the press- ure. But the next morning the catas- j trophe was worse. The catalogue i was not ended, for the country peo- j pie had heard the news and brought ' cats m on their -wood wagons and un- der buggy seats and tied up ton baskets like chickens. m cot Henrv took his stand near bv and leaned . against a telegraph pole for support. He and Shanklin dear old Shank lin and the folks who loved fun, were all there and while it was fun to the boys and death to the frogs, it was such a rare and racy joke that the merchant couldent get mad and finallv urrendered. He made an appropriate little speech to the!miscry: .a. i. mew an paiu crowd and told Henry that if he would promise never to do him so any more he would give him the biggest "ad" he had ever had in his paper. Henry promised and the "ad" was given. That illustrated the mischief that was in his rollick- ; -Ul nature. i;ut one evening Henry was sick j anj left pis junior to make up the paper. It was just on the eve of an exciting municipal election and some right bitter things had been publish ed and more bitter things had been said. It was feared that some of the contending parties would come to blows. A candidate who had been sorely maligned wrote .a bitter de nunciation of his opponent and took it to the junior just before the paper went to press. It was received and inserted and printed in about three hundred copies when Henry walked into the office to see what the boys bnd done in his absence. He read the article and was horror-stricken. "Stop that press !" cried he. "Stop it; stop it. I would not have that article go in for $1,000. Both those men are my personal friends, and they will light. There will be blood shed either on the street or in a duel. j jJot i,ave wives and children and it j womj be a shame to widen the ; tJt.0llcb. How many have you struck off?' "About three hundred,' tiiey said. "Well, get your knives and scissors and we will cut it out of ev ery one and print no more with that bloody piece in them." All hands went to work and soon had every paper perforated with a hole 2x4 inches, and so they were folded aud mailed. The town won dered, but Henry had sworn all hands to secrecy and not more than five of us ever knew what had been cut out. Long years after he said to me one day in his Atlanta office, "I believe I saved a man's life that night and it was a good spirit that moved me to get up off a sick bed and go down to overlook the paper.'' Henry is dead and Shanklin, whom he loved, and Dwinell and John Ri ley and I reckon everybody else who was connected with his paper. His brother is dead and his sister. Only his good old Christian mother re mains of that family. It seems to me that old Father Time ought to take us by our ages and let the young live on. Eugene Field was not even sick nor forewarned. This heart failure is getting alarming. It is a good text for Moody, for nobody is safe nowadays. There is another of that trio Grady, Field and Joel Chandler Har ris, all about the same age. Two shall be taken and the other left. May the good Lord spare him till he sees his three-score years and ten; yes, till the red locks turn to gray. It is a deeper grief for those to die who are in the prime of life and use fulness. A young mother died here the other day who all her lire had been well and strong, a good daugh ter, a loving wife, and our hearts full of sympathy went out to the be reaved ones. Only a year married and full of hope and joy and love. The child is there and the father's tears fall on it sometimes, but what is home without a mother? After a'l that we say about each other the world is full of sympathy and one touch of nature makes us all akin. The sweetest poems that were ever written were founded upon love, and that is why everybody loved Field. Ili.s "Little Hoy I Hue" is love itself, and even his prose was full of it. That sweet little story of "The Old Man" will bring welcome tears from eyes unused to the melting mood. The poems that have lasted the lon gest and still live in our hearts are not the stately measures of Byron or Shakespeare Oi Pope, but they are from Leigh Hunt and Coleridge and Goldsmith and Tom Hood and Burns and Jean Ingelow. I was reading "The Fisherman's Prayer" aloud the other night aud had to stop before I got through, for the little six-year-old grandchild till ed up and began to sob like her heart would break. I learned the "Her mit" when I was young and I love to repeat it now. Halleck and Bryant are grand, Longfellow is beautiful and Holmes is delightful, but they don't touch deep down like those I have named. "Genevieve" and the "Hermit"" and "Song of the Shirt" and the "Catter's Saturday Night" will live as long as our language. A good heart loves to weep sometimes. A man who can't shed a tear over poor Rip Van Winkle as acted by Joe Jefferson is in a bad way for Heaven. Walter Scott says that the oniv tune lie ever saw minis was in a room where there was a painting of a young mother with a ixibe in her anus who had just found her husband dead on a battlefield, and unuerneath the picture were these lines: '"Iieiit o"er her babe, her eye dissolved .it Ii the milk Tin bir drops min he drew, (lave the sad story of his future ycais The child of misery baptized in tears." Scott says that Burns could not conceal his emotion, but wept like a child. And vet there are folks who j iaicy painting or a great uatue wmi an its d.oou ami carnage anu Ouo for one. It is now in the Cen tral park gallery in New York. The one that Burns wept over ought to be right under it as a contrast an object lesson. But we are calm and serene in these parts now. There is no war nor pestilence nor any great calami ty. The land is filled with plenty and I reckon our people are thank ful. The good book says: "When a man's ways please the Lord, He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him." It does look like our enemies are harmonizing of late more than at any time since the war. There is nobody breathing out threat enings and slaughter against us now except old man Hoar and he is almost dead. There was comfort in what Mr. Loomis, of Wilkesbarre, Pa., said when he got back home: "The South has never had a chance since the war. Stripped bare as a bone no money, no annuity, no pen sions it is past reason now she nas come to the front. Think of it ! The government has since the war paid out in pensions alone 1, 500,000,000 that staid in the North. Of this vast sum the South had to pay her part in taxes and got nothing. Just give her $1 00,000. 000 as a starter and in ten years the North would howl at her progress. And we are compelled to look to the South for true American patriotism. They are all Americans down there with their blood pure through a century of American parentage. It is re freshing to run up against a whole community of pure Americans." How is that for a manly confes sion? Bill Arp. The wife of Mr. Leonard Wells, of East ISrimlield, Mass., had been suffer ing from neuralgia for two days, not be ing able to sleep" or hardly keep still, when Mr. Holden, the merchant there sent her a bottle of Chamberlain's l'aiu Halm, and asked that she give it a thor- j ousrhtiial. On meeting Mr. Wells the I next day he was told that she was all j right, the pain had left her within two; liours. and that the bottle of l'aiu Halm bottle oi ram lialni w as won h $.". .) if it could not lie had for less.

Financial and Commercial. New Y'ork, Nov. 23, 1803. Special Correspondence. Business during the past week has continued to show the moderated ac tivity noted a week ago. The dis tribution on account of current and old orders continues large; but new business shows a slackening, which is in part due to delayed consump tion of previously bought stocks and in part to lower prices aud a feeling of uncertainty about the future of values. Markets for food products generall' have declined, and there has been a further fall in prices of iron and steel, white cotton goods prices show less strength, and there is a disposition to await develop ments in leather and some other manufactures which retards trade. But railroad earnings, which have increased over 10 per cent, for half of November, show the activity of the trade movement, and the heavy fall business throughout, the coun try accounts for continued weekly pa'ments through the banks consid erably larger than those at the cor responding period in 1S03-4-5 and slightly in excess of the big Novem ber totals of 131)2, the year before the panic. Financial uneasiness has been in creased by gold shipments, which during last week have been very large about $7,230,000 and have reduced the actual Treasury reserve to the neighborhood of $82,000,000. The foreign financial and political news has been more reassuring, but the gold outflow has increased dis trust in the currency situation. The danger of Treasury depletion, which is the one serious disturbing factor in the business situation, accentu ates the need of prompt action by Congress, which alone can afford a permanent basis for restored confi dence. Business failures as report ed by Bradstreet's show another marked increase, which has been chiefly in the Middle and Western States. The number of failures in the L'nited States has been o23, against 270 the previous week, 203 in the corresponding week a year ago, and .15S in the third week of No vember, 180!J. Cotton prices, after a fall of 1-10 of a cent, have recovered and ad vanced 1-10 of a cent, owing to a more active Liverpool trade with English spinners who had previous ly been drawing largely upon re serve stocks to meet their current requirements. American spinners have continued to operate cautiously; but exports have moderately in creased, and the comparatively small receipts from the South have con tributed to the support of prices. But although over 1,000.000 bales less of cotton have been brought in to sight since September 1st, than the amount marketed during the corresponding period last year, the world's stocks of American are only 200. ooO bales smaller and European stocks of cotton are 1G2,000 bales larger than they .were a year ago. Northern mill taxings in two and a half months show a comparative de crease of lO.'LOOO bales, and export- in the same time a decline of 072,000 bales. Wheat prices have declined 11 cents per bushel in Chicago and s of a cent en the Atlantic seaboard; and corn values have gone down 11 cents in Chicago and i to I of a cent in New York. The relatively greater fall in Western markets is the effect of a natural tendency of the trade to adjust price differences to the new freight conditions following the close of lake navigation. The primary cause of weakness in prices lias been the heavy Western receipts of wheat, which so far this crop year have ex ceeded all records, except in the big crop seasons of 1301 and 1302. Ware house stocks in this country have in creased nearly 8,000,000 bushels in two weeks, and 23,000,000 bushels since September 1st. This steady gain in stocks has induced a revision of estimates of the yield, which now range from 473,000,000 to over ."00,- (100,000 bushels. The corn movement from the West has continued moderate for the sea son, and from Western points to the seaboard has been disappointing small. This is due to low prices and a prevalent feeling that they are un reasonably low, which has induced unusually extensive cribbing opera tions in the West. New corn at 34 to 33 cents on the seaboard compares with corn at 37 to CO cents in 1S0O, the previous big crop year; and in view of the fact that average export values in the year following the 1830 crop were 42 cents, and in the year after the 1800 harvest were 55 cents, it is not surprising that the holding sentiment in the West should be so strong. iOOl Look.
