Well, yea, anxious, troubled ques
tlonrr.it wilL We hope yoa will feel
satisfied to have the matter definite
ly aettlad. And. we can tell yoa
positively that it will. We know
aa much aboat It as Prof. Proctor,
as Professor Bwift, aa the Smlth-
aoniaa institute and the national
observatory, and more than tbe TJ.
a, signal service. Yoa have been
tormenUd and tortnred, no doubt
by Mother Bhipton, and by the
eomet, and the Canadian farmer
who built him an ark and had it all
ready to launch for the 19th of
Jana.be caa go into the ferry bus!-
neaswitbit cow. or sell it to the
Mississippi Barge and Transporta
tion companyand by ; the Miller,
itea and one fool thing and another,
an til your mind is distracted aad
yoa can't sleep, and don't think it
wortn while to nay yoar debU. All
tbe same, yoa will have to pay, or
rv Utta vi uueiuceo. auu it tu
world should come to an end at ten
o'clock to-morrow morning, opto
9:45 a.m. money would be 8 per
cent on gilt edge paper, and cone
too easy to get tben. f
So yoa see tbe fact tbat tbe world
ia coming to an end won't make any
difierence ia your business affairs.
It won't make any difference in the
shallowness of tbe strawberry
boxes this season-, the good berries
wiU all be on top the same as last
year. With eternity staring them
In the face, mankind will go right
on, swindling and lying and pray
ing and singing and swearlog and
dealing honestly and doing tricky
things, loving and hating, laughing
and weeping, antil the end cornea
and the lips that cursed or prayed
are hushed alike la the deep quiet
of death.
For the world is coming to aa
end. And the comet can't hasten
aj,d! a million comets can't retard
this year. There Is no help for It. I
If it acares voo. we can't help It.
We most tell the truth about this
thin?, sioefi' von have asked us
what we know about it. And In
deed, wo know more than we have
told. Tbe eod of all things terres
trial is cominf to-morrow, and yon
can't stop it by elimblog a tree ana
crawling into a cave.! -Every aay
and every hour, the end of tbe
world cemea to aome unsuspecting
mortal who is only thinking up his
plana for next summer, or studying
o? er a H hoes trade" he has in his
mind for next week. Every time
voor heart beats, the end ; of the
world cornea for aome one, and just
as aure as you have, or more surely,
if von bate not paid yoar subscrip
tion for the paper it is coming to
you. And good subscriber, teanui
and troubled about comets and
many things, when It doea come, if
it catches yoa off your feet witn
your business raveling out at tbe
edges, your bills I unsettled, your
notes protested, your subscription
not paid, yonr pew tent dne, and
your pastor running into debt tor
his living, with, your conscience
burdened with wrongs and. your
life bristling with uncorrected aod
unrepented faults, yoa won't need
any comet cor any long procession
of perihelia to scare you. Yea
won't think of the planets then,
good man. Ion will think about
tbe horse with a spavin yoa sold to
poor Greenwig ; yoa will : think
about the aboddy 94 overcoat you
sold poor Hayseed for 913.75 ; yon
will think about the quarts of
strawberries yoa sold every year In
pint boxes; yoa will remember tbe
seven cent print yoa sold to old
Mrs. Thistlepod for 14 'cents you
will think about the firkin of axle
grease yoa painted with butter and
sold for 37 cents for table ose ; yoa
will think of the mortgage yoa
foreclosed oa poor Bagweed farm
after he had paid yoa IS per cent
for the money for ten years j yoa
will think of the loads of three feet

country whither yoa are going, and.
poor man. II 'yoa hare fastened
your faith and trust to nothing bet
ter tbaa Hotter Ship ton, or Yensor,
General Hazsa, or some celestial
tramp of a comet, the aound of the
trumpet, the voices of the beasts,
the seven thunders, the hail and
fira mingled with blood, the dark
ened sun, the t vials of wrath and
the voice of tbe eagle could not add
to your fears. When the end of
the world comes for yon, that will
be tha only end yoa will take any
interest ia. It will be awful enough
for yoa, if It comes before yoa are
ready for it, and unless yoa know
yoa have a dead sure on 87 years
or mor, and yoa don't know wheth
er yoa have or not- yoa keep oae
eye open all the time for the end of
the world.
Bo, don't yoa worry about two
comets or conjunctions of perihelia
or eclipses or the spots oa the sua.
Yoa may not live to aee the world

tbe great final dissolution of all
things terrestrial, but yoa are go-
and don't yoa forget it: That's all
Joa nave , to ao with 11 xoa go

without fear. Study astronomy for
its wonders and beauties, and cot
for fanciful and Ignorant and super
stitious terror. Yoa go home and
sell clean goods by fall measure and
honest weights; teach your clerks
tbat a 35 inch stick doesn't measure
a yard of dress goods ; don's weigh
yourself on the hay, and the wagon
by itself make your ton of coal
weigh 20 hundred, and cut your
wood 4 feet long j be honest and
square In your dealings; pay your
pew rent every week, and your
newspaper subscription in advance;
read the revised Testament of tener
and go to church regularly: go out
and club yourself every time you
suffer yourself to vote the republi
can ticket, be manly and pay your
debts aa fast as yoa can, and live
so that yoa caa look every man in
tbe eye when you meet him; give
op swearing and try family prayers
as a substitute, don't b afraid of
any man tbat ever wore hat, and
always stand by your own honest
convictions, and tben, if some night
a comet with a tail like a torch
light procession, and the perihilion
ot Jupiter, and an eclipse of the
aun, and old Mother Sbipton should
file into your front yard and kick
and thnnder at tbe door i We
want you, old man P Yoa would
hop cheerially out ot bed, and shout
back, All right, wait till I get on
my trousers P and go out to join
tbe procession without a tremor.
Bless your timid soul, the other
end of the world is nothing, if you
only shape this end as nearly right
aa yoa know how.
Tie Brave Little Ctrte.
A long time ago. In the Indian
country, two little girls slipped
away from tbe fort and went into
a hollow to pick berries. It was
Emmy, a girl of seven years, with
Bessie, her sister, not yet six.
All at once, the sun cashed on
eomethiog bright, and Emmy knew
that the pretty painted things she
had seen crawling am one tbe
bashes must be hostile Indians,
with gleaming weapons in their
hands. She did not cry out. cor
in any way let them know that she
Ko Ttnr .ho InnlrmA ell
bad seen them. But she looked all
about, aaw that aome of tbe creep
log Indians already were between
her and the fort, and went on
picking berriea aa before.
Soon, she called aloud to Bessie,
with a steady voice: Don't yoa
think it's going to rain V So they
both turned and walked toward the
fort. They reached the tall grass,
and suddenly Emmy dropped to the
ground, pulling down Bessie, too.
" What are yoa looking for V
asked tbe little sister, in surprise.
Then Emmy whispered to Bessie,
aod both of them stole silently and
quickly on hands and kneea through
tbe long grass, until .they came to
the road, when they 1 started up.

HO FEELING OP REGRET.
Gen J. S. Crocker, the warden
of. the fail, said to a correspondent
to-day: 4'Since be has been here
he has never manifested any sign
of regret or remorse on account of
his act. He takes a pride in the
notoriety be thinks he has gained,
and wonld like : to talk about it
eon stan tly if he was allowed to do
so. He was very inquisitive at
first in regard to events outwide,
but no one was allowed to talk to
him or give him any information,
and he baa stopped asking ques
tions because he finds it is no use."
"How does he pass his time !"
Timet He lonages on tbe bed
a good deal of his time sometimes
he walks up and down his cell for
exercise and he reads about half
his time. After he found tbat be
could not get bold of any newspa
pers he asked for some reading
matter. I mentioned several books
that we had here, but he did .cot
care for them, end said he would
rather have a Bible. He was given
one and said ne would read it
through by sections. I suppose be
meant that he would start at Gene
sis and go straight through, as tbat
Is tbe way he seems to be doing.
He eaid to me that he had been a
close student of the Bible, and bad
once written a book called; 'Tbe
Truth,' which be intended to be
nsed as a companion volume to tbt
New Testament.; He said tbat h
bad published tbe work, but ueari
tbe whole edition had been destroy
ed by fire 1n the printing bouse.
He had re-written and enlarged it,
but had not been ; able to publish it
again." ' i
"Did be say anything about bis
religious opinions t" , I
"He eaid that he was a Christian,
bnt tbat be had aome peculiar
views of his own. He thinks that
the second coming ot Christ took
place at tbe destruction of Jem
lem. He also holds tbat people at
tbe present day get inspirations
from God jost as in tbe days of tbe
Pnnh4,tJiw
I Propoeta.
Gen. Crocker eaid that
there waa nothing irrational in
Goiteau'a manner or behavior. ' Ho
displaya a retentive memory. He
haa never shown any signs of fear
over tbe consequences to himself of
his act. Gen. Crocker once asked
him if he wanted counsel, and he
replied : "No; not at this stage of
the proceedings." Although be
receives no information, he surmis
es that the President is still alive

In bis detail of Indian horrors
tbat came under his notice Mr.
..w. . rawinlln TnHian
I ., r . j i ioct v.
killertstated that In 1867 he gave an
Indian a hair dollar tor a nair rope
ten feet in length and about the
size of his little finger. He un
twisted tbe end and found tbat it
was made of red, auburn and black
hair, which from the length of each
hair, waa evidently that ef women.
He questioned the Indian, who
told him tbe rope was made from

Dor,would be to establish thousands
upon thousands of jdifierant grades
or society in tour midst. In fact
tbe ridicnlons line' of division
would soon isolate society almost
entirely. Take examples.
1 1 Suppose a man owning ten thou
sana dollars assumes an air of
superiority ombis beighbor whose
bank account jdoes bot reaoh over
five thousand, would it cot follow
that the man owning ten thousand
wouia soon learn to look: with
I contempt upon his neighbor worth
only five thousand And in the
same like reasoning would it not
come to pass that the wealthiest
man in the community would have
no persons at! all with whom his
dignity I would allow him to hold
some intercourse. By this mon
strons reasoning, Yanderbilt with
uih uuuarea minions would oe a
poor individual, because his social
isolated ! condition would render
him an object of pity.
