We feel it our duty to let our read, rs know, t!ia,t in our opin ion that report is wholly and absolutely false, and we dare any in an to prove that Mr. But ler !na:le such a statement. How can any one expect Mr. Sutler to be sorry for a thing of 'which he is not guilty?

We have never heard a man front the eountry say that Mr. liutler Hied to prejudice hi. n against Clinton, but we hve heard farmers who have an opinion of their own, say thi.t they were almost afraid to go to town and express them selves, as they didn't like to have their feeling- hurt. It is a fact, that seme of onr best and most intelligent citizens are ridiculed, aud called fools aud cranks. We ' are reliably in formed that some went so far as to say that any man who voted the People's party ticket didn't have good white blood iu him If those who made use of such remarks, will inform us how old they are, we will be able to tell our readers exactly how long it has been since the "fool killer" passed this way. In conclusion wo would like to say, for the benefit of those of our readers, who are not thor oughly occpiainterl with this town, that all of the town peo ple are not guilty of such unbe coming and foMish expressions; but on the other hand, there are as good men in Clinton as can be found anywhere ; men who attend to their own business; men who will denounce such language, though it fall from the lips of their friends; men who express themselves freely, friendly and not abusively.

Tbamu lHxum. Jr., CHmruttmr ! I'romlBrnt Editor Wfco Jprostl. tata thm Power of tfe Proa and Pan der toVtae and Municipal Corruption. New Yokk, May 1. Before his w. mou in Ax.iatioD hall this monaoj?, Mr. Dixon reviewed tha nabject of tl viciotsu tondf -tic-it of a certain Ium .f American nwspap'-rs. He said: There art to tw fonnd black shtp ia nearly every fold. So Aineric&a joar riidifin has it Black Cat. The axMiual wfina to have growu in tiz3 of liOt-. The uiiOboal mavxmt of rich offal mtAl by it a food in the auotoalous tt.inpur;ry devfclipmenU of onr pftical aad so ial life doubtlnj atronnte &r this growth. The development of Huch a monstrwity ia a ecriotiB and interesting fart Thj position of an alitor of a qhwb paper of today is a 8lemn a tnibt a that of. a minister of the Gospel. The prees, in fact, has abriorbud many of the functions of the minister of religion. The reeponaibilitieB of such a position are greater because the number of lives directly effected ia greater. lie ha the power to poinon the minds and un nerve the arms of tens of thousands daily with hatred, liea, slanders and ap peals to the basest instinct of the an imal, or to lift the world from the slum ber of the night to the duties of a new day in the arms of love, truth, oonrage, hope and faith. THE MODERN JUDAS. There is no man of modern times who speaks with such supreme power as he who dictates the management of a great newspaper. The secret of the power to bless or the power to damn the life of man is his. lie is the minister of the most high God charged with keeping the aacred fires of truth burning along the world's highways that sweep through darkness into the infinite and eternal. lie who betrays this solemn trust is the Judas Iscariot of modern times, For, charged with the life of the to whom he ministers, lie betrays inno cence and weakness for the sake of filt hy gain. Charged with protecting the wayfarer, he is the friend of highway man and assassin. I wish we could say that no such paper throws its accursed shadows acrons our daily life. But we have them. We cer tainly have at least one conspicuous ex ample in New York, and there are many Bmaller lights that trim their lamps by its standards. It is the evil genius In fact that, with its single red eye, has thrown its spell over thousands of bright minds. What are the simple facts in the history of this journal which finds its way even into many Christian homes in our midst? It is a great daily r Police Gazette. Crime, slander, scandal and criminal "sport" are the staple. These fill tho choicest positions. The record of a prize fight takes precedence over the words of any statesman or phi lanthropist. THE FKIEND OK CRIME. This paper poses as the erponent of civic and political virtue. The record of its columns shows that it has been the friend and public champion of near ly every great thief and scoundrel who has figured in the disgrace of New York during the past generation. It even pro posed to canonize its ideal statesman. William M. Tweed, before his death. But Mr. Tweed left his country for hid country's good before they bad time to make the east of his image for the ped estal. During this period it has sought to assassinate the character of every great man, upon whose success its malignant eye has rested, if it dared. And there are but few things in this line it has not dared. The greatest compliment ever paid a distinguished president of the United States is that this editor hates him so intensely that he publicly curses him every day in the year. Future generations, therefore, even more than his own, will "love him for the enemies he has made." To bo praised by such a power is to be damned. To be cursed and slandered by it is a sure index to honesty, integrity, worth, manhood. AN INTELLECTUAL PROSTITUTE. , It poses as the friend of the working- man, "and in every battle for life and progress it is found on the side of the strong against the weak! It is the self styled defender of womanhood, and yet fills its news columns with such unutter able filth that no decent woman can touch it without contamination. Its news is gathered with consummate skill and edited with unquestioned genius. It is therefore the most bril liant example we have of a shameless, intellectual prostitute. It has much to sayon religion. It champions ultra-orthodoxy, knowing that its readers have long since aban doned such positions, hoping thus to de stroy the faith of man and deceive the feeble minded. A BRILLIANT SUNFLOWER. It studies the brightest dreams of the social and religious reformer, that with the hot breath of materialism it may blast every aspiration of man for a larger and fuller life. In other words, to change the figure, it is the most brilliant STJN-nower that blossoms today in the dung heap of modern civilization. Its color is as gorgeous as its perfume is fetid. Its roots take hold upon the sa loon, the gambling hell, the dive, the brothel, and from them draws their rich est life. When the streets and sewers of our civic life are flushed with pure water it will disappear with the filth from which it sprang. It is unnecessary to mention the name of this paper. If you have ever seen it you will recognize it from this descrip tion. If you have never seen it you are fortunate, and I have no desire to intro duce vou to vice. Suffice it to say, Christian men and women, you should no more take such a sheet into your home than you would tear the festering rags from the dead body of a leper and wrap them around the body of a newborn babe. WHY WE KNOW THAT JESUS OSE FROM THE DEAD. God, having of old time spoken unto the fathers in tho prophet by divers portions and in divers manners, hath at the end of these days spoken upto us in hla son, whom he ap pointed heir oi all things. Hebrews i, 1, 8. We have seen that the morality of the Bible is its final morality, and that the sum of this moral teaching is found in Jesus Christ. The Bible and the Bible alone is the religion of Protestants, be cause the Bible records for us the Ufa of Jesus Christ. "We have just celebrated the most joyous festival in the calendar of the Christian year. We have pro claimed in song and prayer that he has risen. In notes 'of joy and triumph we have celebrated this the gladdest event in the history of the human race. This note of joy and of triumph over the resurrection of Christ is in perfect har mony with the early thought of the fol lowers of Christ. Early Christianity was pitched in the key of highest joy and triumph. It centered around the person of Christ. The disciples were swept for the motnent outside of them , V 11 Aipi.it. i 1 - a thought that J-U4 th.-ir Friend, their Saviour, their Master whom tby had thought d4, had rim -gain.

JesttH Chri-t did rae t--m i.nl We know it. First From invine.ble, hist. .ii- testi i mony to the fact of hi life, m-.oi.jsion, j death and resurrection. j We have historical evidence in the ; history of the Hebrew" race in the lirsi place. The history of Israel is a miracle in the story of humanity. View it from whatever point yon please, there is no theory of mere rationalism or of mj-thol-ogy that on explain the simple facts of Jewish history. There is but one sane explanation, and that is that the people of Israel were a chosen people. Their history ia unique in the history of man kind. It has no parallel and cannot 12 in terpreted by the ordinary laws under which nations have .had their rise- and development. ; THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-THREE PROPHECIES FULFILLED. Far back in the past there rose the race of prophets whose language pointed forward to the coming of this mysterious personage. We read the Twenty-second Psalm and find the description of his death. You must leap the chasm of a thousand years from the date of that Psalm to find the explanation of its phraseology. In the life of Jesus Christ there were fulfilled three hundred and thirty -tim groups of prophecy from the ancient hi-storv of the ..TecV Thict liuuhed and tliirty -throe ictiact groups of prophetic utterinces were fulfilled iu his life, and within the;: separate groups there were smaller groupu of stux-ific prophecies which were literally fulfilled, which wordd raise the possibility of such events happening by chance to such a point that it. passes the power of the mind of man to believe such things could happen by chance. And then we have the witness of his followers, who were at first surpri3ed at the thought of his resurrection. They tell the story with the utmost simplici ty. Without entering into minute de tails, without straining for effect, with out making any effort to impress the world with its dramatic importance, they stand forth as the simple witnesses of facts which they observe. They de clare that during forty days he appeared on distinct occasions, under different cir cumstances, to different groups of the dis ciples, on one occasion to as many as live hundred. These facts were proclaimed through the First century of Chrittiani ty and remained undisputed. They "re mained undisputed until centuries after ward, when Tjefore them was written the question mark of the skeptic, who had no sympathy for or knowledge of tho Christ, or of the truth which he taught, and was therefore utterly incompetent as a critic. JESUS SAID SO. Second vYe know that Jesus rose, from the dead, because he said he would rise. It is so because Jesus said so. The witness of such a man is invinci ble evidence of troth. There are certain tests which render testimony invulnera ble. By every em? tost the word of Jeeus stands. In the first place, there is unity and consistency in the whole of his testimony. The story of his life pre sents a uniform and consistent unfold ing of a sublime principle of a kingdom invisible, eternal, which he came to es tablish on the earth in utter conflict with all the powers of his day. He was perfectly willing to die by that teaching aa he had lived by it. And when the hour came he. calmly trned his face to ward Jerusalem in spife .ef the prote? is of his followers, was tried, condemned and crucified. His behavior on the witness 6tand, in which his life and truth hung in the bal ance, stamps his testimony as the essence of truth itself. We judge a witness as to credibility by this test his behavior. See him, as he stands before the Sau- hedrin with his life in his hands, with his life hanging upon the answer that should fall from his lips. The high priest puts to him the Jewish oath and on his oath asks him the question, "Art thou" the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?' and with every word sealing bis life in a death of torture be calmly replied, "I am." And they judged him worthy of death. There is in his de meanor the accent of truth. There is around his personality the atmosphere of truth. When we hear such a man epeak, we know by an intuition deeper and truer than any process of reasoning that the truth has been spoken. PRESIDENT LINCOLN'S DECISION.. We remember the old story of the young woman who asked President Lin coln for a pass through the Federal lines that she might go into the south and see her wounded brother. The papers were made out, and as she was about to depart the president suddenly paused and said to her, "Of course you are loyalrf She hesitated for a moment, her lips quiver ed, the tears began to gather in bei eyes i and turning full upon the president ahe Veplied firmly, "Yes, loyal to' the heart oore to Virginia!" Tbe president wa3 surprised; but there was that in her demeanor, in her words, in the character that stamped itself upon her face, and in her response under this supreme crisis, that convinced the presidnt that she could , be trusted.

Here is a niir:tcle in human h.istory that d"map..Tti exj.la-uatiou. ThirA of it for a moment and explain it if you can. As the ages lengthen, the nior overwhelming be comes the testimony of the ages u the divinity of this unique person.

THE CROWS A FUAl t? Yet come with me a hundred year? from that da-, and the historian tells ui that there is to be found on the face of the earth not a nation or a ra-e or a tribe that gathers at a camp fire, even of a wandering arab, tliat yon do ne hear songs and prayers to this Jc&tm of Xa zareth thus crucified. He molds the wills of millions in his own. ilartyrs court death for his sake and count- it gain. The history of the world is his. The calendar of time is reset to the L.tu of his birth. There is no history of the world since Calvary except the history J of Christianity. Kings lwptize then children in his name. The 'brigruest monuments of earth, m gleaming mar ble , with glittering spires, poeias of architectural beauty, speak the glory ot his name. The cross, the embk-m of shame, becomes the symbol of tr.un.ph. It has conquered all. The history ot Greece and Rome, all the civilfrati..na of the past have flowed into the stream of hifetory from the cross, and in it have been lost. Is there any human explana tion of this phenomena of history? : The only key that can unlock it U the myuT .tery of the divinity of this" lowly may 0f the people who died under the reig 0f Tiberius Ciedar and. Pontius P-J&e. A fraud could not have changed Ufe calen dar of Julius Caesar. A frau'.nld not have rewritten the history of faj,. v.-orld.

"Certainly," returned the parson, "t ut you will find It very powerful: 1-e cure how you use it." "The Hoofcier took the proffered vial and, feeling himself proof against any quantity of raw whisky, thought that he could stand the 'red salt' with impunity, and accordingly sprinkled a piece of beef rather bountifully with it and forthwith introduced it into his capacious mouth. It soon began to take hold. He shut his eyes and began to writhe. Finally he could stand it no longer. He opened his mouth and pcreaiaed 'Fire!' " 'Take adrink of cold water from the jug,' said tlie part" n. 'Will that put it out?' asked the mar tyr, suiting tbe action to the word. In a ehcrt time the unfortunate man began to recover and turning to the parson, his eyes yot swimming in water, exclaimwl: 'Stranger, you call yourself a Tur salist, I believer' " 'I do,' mildly answered th parson.
