YOUTHFUL DEPBAVITT, '
The death of a fourteefl yer-old Rirl
from delirium tremens in the city of
Philadelphia a few days ago has elici
ted considerable comment from the
press of that city and several homilies
on the social evils oi! the city of Broth
erly Love. The Timed 1 says:
"Here is a mere child, at an age at
which our homebred girls have scarcely
laid aside their dolls, not meeting a vio
lent death suddenly ,but actually known
among her associates for nearly two
years, as the coroner's inquest showed,
as a common drunkard. And the worst
of it is that hers was not an isolated
case. It must be rarely, no doubt, that
children so early sink into hopeless de-
Dravitv. but go down into the same
wretched quarter any day or night and
you will see sights that will sicken you,
of boys and girls scarcely out of in
fancy following close in the footsteps
of the drunken and vicious men and
women who are their only guardians.
And this is right here in our own fair
city, and we go about our business as
though such things aid not concern us
Sometimes, when we hear of a case of
bodily suffering, our hearts are touched
and we pour in our contributions libe
rally : but the helpless ones who are
going down to a fate worse than cold
and hunger, worse than death, should
appeal with a thousandfold more force
not to our purses only, not only to our
sympathy, but to the earnest, helpful
endeavor of all good men and women.
Surely there must be some way in
which these poor children can be
reached."
There is not a city in America, we
might sav in the world, of which the
same might not with truthfulness be
said. In all our great cities under the
very shadows of the churches are the
abodes of lawlessness and vice that
ought to put our civilization to blush.
And yet in these very churches are
large sums of money annually collect
ed to carry the gospel into heathen
land save to the souls of savages, while
Worse than heathen are growing up at
our doorsteps. As the Times remarks,
"surely there must be some way in
which those poor children can be
reached ;" surely there ought to be if
there is not
The gallows, the penitentiary, the
jail, are the shame of our civilization,
and the "society that neglects its chil
dren and lets them grow up in ignor
ance and vice is responsible for the gal
lows, the penitentiary and the jail.
Society ignores the child of poverty
or misfortune ; friendless, guideless he
is left to work his own way through
our unfeeling world. He is lured into
the haunts of vice, learns to steal, to
drink, to murder. Then outraged so
ciety seizes him, jails him, hangs him.
The neglected, abandoned child be
comes the wicked outlaw for whom
fri ions and scaffolds are built How
much better and more creditable to our
Christianity and our civilization it
would be if the millions that are an
nually spent in watching, prosecuting
punishing and feeding criminals were
spent in looking after and caring for
the unfortunate outcasts from whom
the criminal class mainly comes, and
for whom nobody seems to care.
Go into the back streets of any of
our great cities, see the thousands of
human - beings huddling together in
filthy abodes, in poverty and squalor;
children hungry, ragged and naked;
parents ignorant and many of them
dissipated, barrooms in close proximity,
and see how society encourages the
growth of criminals; see what a fine
field there is for missionary labors and
the investment of the funds that go to
carry the light into the dark heathen
a nds. There are streets in New York
city within a stone's throw of the spire
of St. Paul's church that are, morally
speaking, as dark as the most benight
ed corner of Africa, where the gospel
i3 quite as little preached, and yet the
good christian people of that city seem
to be oblivious of that fact
There is need of some one to carry
the light into these dark places, to look
after the poor, helpless, neglected waifs
that are born and bred in them, and
lead them out of the surroundings
where such contaminating influences
prevail, before their souls are stained,
their moral senses blunted, and they
enter upon ine roaa mat leads to tne
prison and the gallows.
THE DEFENSE CLOSED.
The defense of Guiteau closed yester
day with the reading of a speech by
Guiteau, which was permitted by Judge
Cox, the District Attorney having with
drawn his objection. This speech was
simply a rehash of the publications
Guiteau has given to the public, basing-
his justification on the pretense of in
spiration by Deity, to remove the Presi
dent, a power which he could not resist,
which impelled him to commit the deed,
and of which he was an irresponsible
agent. Monday probably Judge Porter
will close the argument and will ex
haust all the resources of his talent to
tie the knot around Guiteau's neck.'
In the address of Mr. Scoville to the
jury he created a sensation by turning
from the direct line of bis argument to
charge the existence of a conspiracy to
hang Guiteau, and to hold Arthur,
Grant, Conkling and their sympathizing
stalwarts intellectually and morally re
sponsible for the act of his brother-in
tt- v, 1 1 :i2 j
Z:iuu??
uuio uuDi usuuiwb uj uiiuiy, ouu
inu.i uo uiu ouu vv imyi. uueuua m uia
broad assertions, but it was a shrewd
line of argument to show that Guiteau,
worked up to a degree of excite
ment by the contest then pending, lost
his mental balance and became insane.
This is really the only way-to account
for the sudden development of the in
sanity that led to the act He showed
probably more temper than judgment
in holding Arthur, Grant and Conkling
morally responsible for Guiteau's crime,
and his remarks in that connection
would fit better in a stump speech than
in an argument to a jury, but it must
be remembered that Scoville stands al
most alone in the defense of a man
who has few friends In the fifty millions
of American people, and that he is
pieaamg for the life of the brother of
lis wife, who ; clings to 'er wretched
brother with a devotion that only awo
man can show. Scoville has had a diffi
cult, an unpleasant and a thanklessork
and he has done it well ahd bravely.

Referring to the Tisit of CoL
Ston and Capt Price to Washington, as
reported by the correspondent of The
Observes, and the rumor that Captain
Price was laying his wires to run for
Congress against Mr. Armfield, the
Statesville Landmark takes occasion to
remark:
The publication above referred to
affords - the opportunity of saying a
word about the political status of this
district The district is largely ; Demo
cratic. Last year it went largely against
prohibition. Three-fourths to four-fifths
of the Democrats in it voted anti. They
did this because of their opposition to
the principle involved in the Question.
But if these people would not endorse a
heresy last year they win put up. witn
no iooiisnness now. xney nave no
warm nests for hungry politicians who
mavcometo them riding hobbies and
seeking to arouse their prej udices. They
voted against prohibition and would do
so again, but they will not elect to office
a Kepuoiican or a nungry omce-nunter
of any other type, simply because he
was an anti-prohibitionist The next
member of Congress from this district
will be as he has been for years, a
Democrat He will define himself
clearly on the stump us opposed to any
furtner agitation of this proniDiuon
business ; as in accord with the policy
of the Democratic party in State and
nation, and as opposed to Republican
ism, its teachings and practices. No
jackass can masquerade over this dis
trict in tne sfcin or a lion without tne
ople finding out exactly who he is.
e may call himself Democrat inde
pendent Manoneite or what not but
however well the people mar like his
anti-prohibition opinions, if his speeches
and promises do not square with Dem
ocratic doctrine in other respects he
will be elected to stay at home. Mark
that I The voters of this district may
be plain people but they are too sharp
to be hoodwinked by Republican bosses
with whom politics is a trade, or by any
or ineir auies wnose god is an office.
The Mormons are said to hold a
balance of power in Washington.
Where an unlimited supply of money
would not soften the palm of ah antag
onist, they have unnerved him by un
mistakable intimations of a personal
and private nature. The Mormon
church has, for years, kept an accurate
record in detail of the private life es
pecially at Washington of every Sen
ator and Representative, and it is this
record which has given the Mormons
such tremendous and fatal power at
Washington for a quarter of a cen
tury.
A Canadian journal has figured that
the population of the United States in
creases more, every five years, than that
of Canada has increased since the be
ginning of settlement there. If Cana
da is anxious to increase in population
as the States do, let her annex and be
come one of them.

RicttfteftD, Va Jan. 2l The Dis
patch on Thursday published an article
from the Philadelphia Telegraph re
garding the strange proceedings of the
legislature in connection with the
small-pox panic. On the same day Del
egate James A.Frazier,of Rockbridge,
arraigned the Dispatch for the publica
tion, saying, in the course of his re
marks, "for long years itls well known
whenever the Dispatch wants to say
anything particularly mean of those
who happen to differ from the editor,
it goes out of its way to copy articles,
thus avoiding personal (responsibility.?
Prazier's remarks were published in the
Whig yesterday, and wis morning the
Dispatch republished the paragraph
above quoted and supplements it with
the following sentence: "We have only
to.say that Jim Frazier is a liar." An
ticipating that a breach of the peace
would certainly follow such language,
warrants were issued for the arrest of
Capt W. F. Drinkard, editor of the
Dispatch, and Frazier. About 11a.m.
I?nnkard was arrested in his sanctum,
and while in the counting room of the
Dispatch arranging for some one to ac
company mm to the Magistrate Frazier
came in with a friend and he was
placed under arrest, but said there was
no necessity for it as he bad come to
make an explanation. He then in the
Eresence of friends so modified his pub

parties were released from custody.
