The editor of the Standard thus replies to the Ku Klux proclamation of ihe organ of assasiaation in this city, j The Wilmington Journal has a long and somewhat heated article in reply to the ar ticle entitled"Retribution)" published ic the Standard some two weeks ago. We shall not reply in detail to the Journal's article for the reason that it is j based entire-! ly upon the supposition that in saying that "another power" was preparing to crush the Ku Klur, we referred (to use the Journal ' language) to "secret organizations outside the iaw, n We meant no such thing, and the Jour nal had no cause to form such jan opinion. As all necessary information has been ob tained, and we shall not interfere with the operations ot any plans, we have no ob jection to state to what "power we refer red in the article entitled "Retribution." Wc meant that the United States govern ment, having had officers in plain clothes quietly investigating affairs in Orange and Chatham, is preparing to take a hand in the matter, afid if the Ku Klux; can resist a regiment or two ofFederal cavsklry they are much more skilful than suqa cowardly murderers generally are. The bath of the Ku Klux is known, and it is of such a na ture as to make every man who acts under it a traitor to the United States, and we have small hesitation in saying that if they persist in their murderous career they will incur the penalty ol death, ! This will show the Journal that It has entirely misapprehended our meaning, arid that its article, deduced from false prem- ise3. does us lniustice. 1 7 i We will now say, that we may understood, that we shall never nor can wc sympathize with, any ings outside the law of the land. be fully counsel, proceed If such are committed wc shall wish fdr the pun ishment of the guilty, let them belong to what party they may.

A Wjjfe chopped to Death. Suicide of her Husband. Roundout, N. T., October 'Zi. A horrible tragedy was committed near this village last night. The actor in tlm ter rible deed of blood was Joseph Wood,! ship carpenter by trade, and a man we Known to dc tue siave-,oi nis passions, l' or some montlispast Wood gave signs of la boring under an aberration of the mind, and many of his neighbors feared that he woiild soon or late become positively insane. The cause of this change in the mau's menta condition it is now well known! was domes tic trouble. j Wood was twice married, anr) one ot illS wives survives him. For some time past! he has been constantly receiving letters from an anonymous source. These letters which were intended to in -him toward the wife with whom he lived in Ponchockie, on the outskirts of this vil lage. In one of these letters a statement was mr;e that the child which was living with him was not his own. Operating Ion mind like his, this statement produced the desired effect- He brooded) over it un til he c'ame to believe it true. For a (long time1, however he kept the mattep a secret. A few days since he borrowed some money from Mr. Abram Sleight, of this village, and with it ii naid ' some of ! his debts. This rirr.umstance as Wood was not a bor- rnn nnmfln ns a TU.IG was uiuuu loiacu - 1. ' J i.ll.n,! about in the neigaDO-moqa, anu not a belief few that hor- of nis neighbors expressed their he was noins mad. Last evening the nble culmination was rcacned. wood ! re7 turned home from his week's labor about eight o'clofck, and on entering the house, accused his wife of infidelity and ot holding in her heart no love for him. 1 A quarrel ensued, and a lady living in another part or the house had her attention attracted by the angry voices. Wood's wife expostulated and attempted to make an explanation, but her mad husband would listen to no entreaties. During this alter cation Wood seized an axe and swore he would take his wife's life. The woman who heard this threat became tcrrinea out was unable for some 'seconds to move, out of simple fear. She then heard Mrs. Wood say : "Joscy, don't you kill me," came some subdued sounds and somebody on the floor. and then the fall of The wman then rushed to the door ana into the street and cried for help.' Her cries were heard by Mr, Levi Metcalf, a resident of the neighborhood, who was passing at the time. 4iGo into the house at once," (cried the woman. "My God,!, my God ,1 I think Mr. Wood has killed his wife." Mr. Metealf ran into the house and j waf met at the door by Wood, who warned bin; not to enter, the room Mr. Metcalf looked into the irooni aid witnessed a picture such as has seldom been seen In any community. The lifeless body of. Wood's wife lay on the floor in a pool of blood, llcr bead, face and throat revcaldi eleven terrible gashes, infiictedj, withj tbf axe in the hands of her husband, llonf stricken, Mr. Metcalf was for a moir"k paralyzed bv the sickeniug scene. Fi"v he said to 'Wood': "Josey, this is a bafi00 for you." Wood looked at him torf mo ment, and then', rushing to a buf4u! he seized a razor and attempted to cuyls own throat. Mr. Metcalf took hold ofs prm and a scuffle ensued, whicli result llk tn former being driven from ''the om and threatened with injury if he re" turn. - 1.. .. Wood, then, with perfec'jaetlueraUon killed himself. He drew t.lf ra2or across bis throat, making a deepi3u that exteQ- den trom ear to ear. j Tjcrittn shortlr hfnr 4Q Commission Ot the tragedy, but it is illegible that only the concluding eentniP can bd read.

The following Quaker declaration of faith was written by George Fox in 1671, and sent to the Governor ot Barbadoes : DECLARATION OF FAITH.; We own and believe in God, the only wise, omnipotent and everlasting God, the ureator oi ail imngs in neaven and earth, and the Preserver of all that lie hath madd; who is God over all, Dlessed torever; to whom be all honor, glory, dominion, praise and thanksgiving, both now and torever- raorel And we own and believe in Jesus Christ, His beloved and only begotten Son, in whom he is well pleased ; who was con ceived by the Holy Ghost, and born ot the virgin Mary; in whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins; who is the express image of the invis ible God, the first born of every creture, by whom were all things created that are in heaven and in earth, visible and invisible. Whether they be thrones, dominions, prin cipalities or powers, all things were created by Him. And we own and believe that He was made a sacrifice for sin, who knew no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth ; that He was crucified for us in the flesh, without the gates of Jeruselum ; and that He was buried, and rose again the third day ; by the power of His Father, for our justifi cation, and that he ascended up into Heav en, and now sitteth on the right hand of God. This Jesus, who was the foundation ot the holy prophets and apostles, is our foundation : and we believe there is no other foundation to be laid but that which is laid, even Christ Jesus; who tasted death for every man, shed His blood for all men, is the propitation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world, acccording as John the Baptist tes tified of him when he said, "Behold the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin of the world.1' Wc believe that he alone is our Redeemer and Saviour, the Captain of our salvation, who saves us from sin, as well as from hell and the wrath to come, and destroys the Devil and his works. He is the seed oi the woman that bruises the ser pent's head, to wit Christ Jesus, the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last. He is (as the Scripture of truth say of Him) our wis dom, righteousness, justification and redemp tion ; neither is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under Heaven given among men whereby we must be saved. This Lord Jesus Christ, the heaven ly man, the Emanual, God with us,. we all own and believe in. The (ircat Presbyterian Union. The two great branches of the Presbyte rian Church have virtually coalesced, and will hereafter be known as ihe Presbyterian Church oi the United btates. "Veteran Ob server, ' the Western thinker for the New York Times, has a long article on Presby tcnauism, Irom which we take the tollow ing : "The statistics of the. various Pres byterian bodies in the United States were, last "year, as follows, including those only who have the name, and -therefore inckiing Dutch llefonned, who are substantially Presby tqriau : Presby teries.

Totals.. 158 7,565 There is a curious fact made manifest bv the. above tabic that of these ten branches of the Presbyterian Church, the New school has the largest proportion of ministers to communicants. It is very evident, there- tivity. All the branches of the Presbyterian ! Church proper, embrace or represent seven millions of people, two millions more than the highest estimate ot Roman Catholics. It seems that- 727,000,. or one in ten, are cimunicauts, members of the Church. Iu the seven millions of people thus repre sented there urc! ho doubt sone infidels and many indifferent ; but in proportion to the number of people, l uncieriuKe ro say mere are fewer infidels aud rationalists than in any one body of people that ca.i be found. This fact arises from the strict education which has heretofore prevailed in the Church- The two bodies, which wijll be united in November, are the two first, in the list (Old School and New School), and which, wbeiT united, will present the fol lowing result, viz : One General Assembly, 41 Synods, 2o3 Presbyteries, 4,327 churches, 4,130 ministers, 437,242 commnnicants. In the union which will take place one impor tant matter will be the reorganization of the Presbyteries, both in bounds and numbers. That will be, however, easily done by a busi ness committee, i Nicholas Wain, though a regular Quaker preacher, was a great wag, and many are the good things said by him wiich are still current in certain rhiladelpba circles. He was once traveling on horseback in the in terior of Pennsylvania in company with two Methodist preachers. They dicussed the points of difference in their respective sects, until they arrived at the inn where they were to put up for ! the nignt. At supper, -Wain was seated between the two Method ists, and before them was placed a plate containing two trout. Each of the circuit riders placed hi fork in a fish and trans ferred it to hi plate, after which each shut his eyes ad said an audible grace before meat. The Quaker availed himself of the opportnity to transfer both of the trout to his oy plate, merely remarking, when the othep Opened their eyes, "Your religion teenies you to pray, "but mine teaches me lytnto irazcri ana pray. ' " . ' Mussic at Midnisht It is related of the saintly George Her bert, the quaint old English church poet, that once, in a walk to Salisbury to join a musical party, he saw a poor man and a poor horse that had fallen under the load. They were both in distress, and needed pres ent help, which Mr. Herbert perceiving, put oft his canonical coat and helped the poor man to unload his horse. The poor man blessed him ior it, and he blesstd the poor man. and was so like the Good Samaritan that he gave him money to refresh, himself and horse. Thus he leit the poor man ; and at his coming to his musical friends at Salis" bury, they began to wonder that Mr. George Herbert, who used to be so trim and clean came into that company so soiled and dis composed. But he told them the occasion ; and when one of the company told him he had disparaged himself by so dirty employ ment, his answer was that he thought what he had done would prove music to him at midnight, and that the omission of it would have upbraided and made discord iu his conscience whensoever he should pass by that; place. Empress Eugenie at Magenta A letter from. Italy relates this little anec dote of the Empress Eugenie, on. her way to the East : ; When Eugenie's train! passed Magenta, the battle-field was lighted up with Bengal tights, and the huge grav0 where the French men were buried- was throw,n into bold re lief. The Empress ordered the train to be stopped. Walking amid a tolerably large gathering of villagers, who sainted her as she passed, she approached one of the small er graves marked by a single cross, and placed some flowers upori it flowers which she had plucked from a mound hard by "I have nothing but these flowers to offer you," said the lady, "nothing but these flow ers, my poor Frenchmen.; But they; are bet ter than the thorn3 I find here." And she brushed away some rubbish that lay on the grave. Then, remembering that sbe had a bouquet in her carriage, she went back for it and placed it at the: foot of 1 the large monument, of which fehe read the inscrip tion, adding something in a low voice which no one heard. Perhaps j it was a prayer. When she went away the people raised their hats. But there was less shduKing. Some cried; others, with their kind Italian voices, called on God to bless her. Who has ndt heard dfiobe. Queen ot Thebes (whom Suakesrieare rei) resents as all tears"), and how terriblo her affliction ? ruobe had seven sons and seven daughters. of whom she was extravagantly fond. 6he never would allow them to slide on the cel lar door with the neighbors' children, go to the circus, City Council Chamber, nor any other low place. One klav the Thebans were celebrating the golden weddinc of one of the goddesses, when Mobe appeared be- lore tnem magnmcently iattired in a white tarletan underskirt, corded and cat biasing. witn over-arcss oi red nannel, scalloped and iniaiiieu wnu uouDie rucuicgs oi tnree-ply carpeting.

It can easily oe seen that her appearance was su perb. It was more, it wlks stunning. She took the Theban3 severely to task for wor sniping a goddess whom they had not seen when she was before them she, a daughter of a goddess and the mother of fourteen children. -r bhe ordered them to)quU celebrating, which they accordinglydid, substituting every -day suits for their store clothes and resuming their usual advocations. But the goddess whose; worship was thus interrupted was indignant. She'' wouldn't have it. bhe dwelt on the Cynthian moun tain top, and calling on 1 some of the gods who lived near neighbors to her, related her grievances and asked them to avenge her.

Plod aud IMttck. Henry Ward Beedhcr spoke the other day at the commencement exorcises of a business college in New York. We quote a passage ..... 1 .. 1 1 1 T : 1 . 1 i ou piou itiiii piuciv: :i uo cot uelieve a business mau who says that ho has asked for employment nnd cannot get it, I know many out of employment, but they are drunes : they are not business, men of h &)8ni if hfhaS ii.-TlPrc is no business man who has not got pluck, and it is the business of Mr Packard to teach you ail pluck in life as the first incentive to business ; and I hope that he teaches younother word, which is the greatest5bu3iness word in the world I name it in its homeliness, and it is an old Saxon word it is called plod. 'Oh,' says some body, 'hcis only a plodder.1 Only a plod der! Ah ! there nevei was a man the most brilliant geniu3 in the world, who did not owe much to this process cf being a plod der. It is very well for genius to consecrate the light of the path of life, ',- but it must be pluck and plod that earries a man over the paths of life. I would have these words in scribed over the walls : The pluck of life ; the plod of life." At a revival excitement in Connecticut, a respectable old lady was struck with con viction and became a convert, and was pro pospd for membership of the church. There ws a meeting held for the examination of he candidates, of whom there were several in attendance. 'Well, my dear sister Rogers," said the examiner, addressing our venerable friend ; "please relate your ex perience." The old lady on thus being ad dressed, lilted up her voice.. 44 V ell, ; said she, .1 don't Know what to say, so I told my husband, Mr. Kogers, be fore I came here; but I believe that I have experienced a change, as I told my husband, Mr. Rogers, after I came home from meet ipg, when I became convinced that I was the most sinful creature in the world, as I told my husband, Mr. Rogers, and says he, 'I think so too.' Then I told Mr. Rogers, my husband, I was going to lead a different life was going to trim myrlamp, and have it burning again the bridegroom come. Then Mr! Rogers my husband, 6aid he didn't see what I wanted ot another, i but he didn't make no objection. Then I told Mr. Rogers my husband, that I would 'join the church and prepare myself for the place whee the worm dietiv not, and the fire is not quenched ; and my husbandt Mr. Rogers, told me I'd better." The New Orleans -Picayune says: A num ber of our friends who have recently visited upper Red River gives us the most glowing account of the condition ot the crops in that section. They tell us of wide fields of cotton that gleam like snow, in the sunshine of glorious autumn days, and of the merry songs of the harvesters, which are heard all the livelong day. Everybody seeme cheer ful and contented as well they may be un der the auspicious circumstances. The prospects for an abundant yield were never better, and all the hands that can possibly be procured are busily engaged picking the cotton. The latter fact accounts for the comparatively small receipts. Every planter is so busy picking that be has no time to ship. It will not be long, however, before there wili be a constant stream of the snowy staple no wing into jtew uneans." The latest from the West is the account of a goose race. The geese were harnessed to tubs, six pairs to each tub, in which the competitors sat. A clear pond was chosen, aud over two thousand other gtese gathered ai'jn the banks to watch the raoe.
