BISHOXEST DEBTORS.
Sonfi Fertinont Fact Set Forth
I pon the Niihjret of Paying
Ucks.
Covrngaiao X R. C. rretbvtrlan.
Tha assertion, or rather the opin
ion of your correspondent, that
failure to pay debts was doe nino
case oat of ten, not to inability,
but to A want of honesty, I do not
believa is At all exaggerated. I did
not (ay or mean nine-tenthi of
lhoe who are in debt arc dishonest,
but t had reference to that large
and increasing class, who come tin
der the head of "slow nay," "poor
pay" or "no pay." Inability to
pay a just debt implies, honesty,
strenuous, persistent, salt-denying,
self sacrificing effort. Is there one
man oat of leu who are known not
to pay their debts, that if making
such an effort f It is not the hard
working, poor man, who is willing
to live on corn bread aud water,
and to wear patched clothes, that
does not pay uis debts. . lu many
cases, if uot in nine ont of ten, it
is the man that knows nothing of
hard work or (elf denial; and not it
few bare lands And houses (in their
wire's or children'g names). 1 will
give A few cases :
Here is a man, besideshavingtho
nse of property, I will not call it
his, has a1 oilico which pays nearly
1,000 a year. Ho employs the
best laundresa, keeps the best cook
and is one of the best livers in town.
He is badly in debt. Among many
o there that hn owe., is a poor brick
layer, who baa a large family of
girls They are very bright, though
they hare been to school very little.
Several of them are members of the
Presbyterian chnrrh. Their father
is often out of a job, and they have
to work hard and live hard. He
wears patched clothes, and some
times his feet are on the naked
pn;i:::tl; but ho is stiver and indus
trious, and pays his debts. LU
does not belong U the church, but
thefnan who o him is a Presby
terian. Here is another case, a minuter
iof She Gospelr; -ile Banted MMfcaft
the BriStah-tatesVAntJ' ao he got up
the money, and spent several months
and several hundred dollurs in grat
ifying that desire. At horn? ho
owed farmers, merchants, teachers,
artist, and nearly everybody else.
When a bill was presented him be
seldom paid it, or socmed to care
nothing olwnt it at all.
These are real cases, and could
only too easily be multiplied.
Charge it up tu extravagance, or
good natural negligence, or what
ever else may eounif must charitable,
but when brought down to 'its last
analysis, the extravagance which
lead to living beyond on&'s means,
and consequently on aome other
person's means, and results in A
failure to pay jnst debts, is sheer
dishonesty. There may be no de
liberate intention' to defraud.
Ferdinand Ward perhaps did not
mean to harm anyone, he only
wanted money; aud so the negro
who steals the farmer's corn or his
hog, may do so with nothing but
the best feeling toward the owner.
Is it any the less fraud ?
A friend in North Georgia writes
that the Hardshell Haptists are
about the only class there, who
pretend to meet their obligations
this year. And why is it? llccauso
their church discipline At least, if
not their religion, compels them to
pay their debts.
The trouble with the merchant
is, not that the people will not bny
his goods, but that they will not
pay for what they have bought;
what the country needs and what
the church needs, is not better
seasons, or more banking capital,
or railroads, but more industry and
more honesty and good faith be
tween man and man.
--- -A Ians Trade. "
The ancient Jews required every
body to learn a trade. St. Paul,
though one of the most learned
men of his nation, was a tent ma
ker. It was a good rule, because it
prepared every man for actual
service to society, and placed him
in a manner beyond the vicissitudes
of fortune. We believe it would be
A tU better rulo if adopted in the
education of both !(. A girl
can learn stenography and photog
raphy in the time now spent, and
often more than wasted, over the
piano. A boy with gome talent
for that sort of work may, without
being a great artist, learn the prac
tical art of engraving, an art which
is now brought into requisition by
nearly all the trades, and which is
of pecnliar value to the advertiser.
And, after all, it is better to be a
self supporting mechanic than a
briefless lawyer or a hungry doctor.
A mother gave her little boy two
bright new pennies and Asked him
what he was going lo do with them.
After a moment's thought the
child replied : "I am going to give
one to the missionaries and witb
the other I am going to buy A (tick
of candy." After awhile ho re
turned from his play and told bia
mother he had lost one of his pen

The verdict of 9(000 for plain
tiff in the ? f"r !!
against the New York Tribune ex
cited A lively interest in Maine.
It was yery gratifying to
Mr. Cameron's many friends. The
verdict is one of the largest ever
obtained for a newspaper libel. It
was not limited to the actual dam-1
ages in the case, but exemplary
damages waro given on account of
the gross and malicious character
of the libel. .
The Tribune bore no malice to
wards Cameron personally. It as
sailed him from purely partisan
motives; its object being to discred
it the Administration. Fur that
purpose, lending itself to the malig
uant spirit of ltluineisin, the Tri
bune in May, 1883, published a
grossly libellous despatch from
Maine, attacking the Administra
tion for the appointmcut of Mr.
Cameron as special agent of the
lreasury Department. Ant con
tent with that, it followed the de
spatch in its issue of May 9, 1885,
with what Whitelaw lieid, its edi
tor, termed it on the stand "a
screaming editorial" the spirit of
which appears in the following ex
tract :
"Cameron, the swindler and ex
convict, is just appointed treasury
agent at tho request of Pillsbury.
It gladdens the hearts of the mug
wumps, docs it, to learn that a man
who has served bil term ill prison
for swindling is now chosen Treas
ury Agent by arefonned Presideut?"
The animus of the attack is evi
dent. Its partisan malice assailed
the President for the benefit of the
mugwump. Hence it struck down
Cameron, reckless of truth and
honor, and of the consequence.
Cameron requested the Tribune to
retract. This it refused to do.
Then Cameron returns his commis
sion to Secretary Manning, aud,
constituting himself especial agent
of the de.nartment of iustioe. viudi-
catee ai onoe himself and the Ad
ministration, triumphantly, before
a jury of his countrymen. .In this,
Mr. Cameron has done the public
a service, find it entitled to a vote
of thanks.

The Guinea fowl is a great forv

scratch the garden, and though not
easily kept near the home they
make known the places where they

ables one accustomed to them to
find nil the eggs they lay.
They really oot nothing to raise,

CuHi'trny Toward Oar tjws
llonaebold.
One thing do remember, to have
your home, every-day table just a
attractive as the one to abich you
invite your honored guest.
It is yery hard, sometime inn
possible, fur the mistress with but
one maid of all work to demand
that one (hall be a prac
tical waitress. It is much easier to
have the food jumbled on the table
in a helter-skelter fashion than ta
run the risk of making trouble bf
insisting that it shall be served in
courses. But the matter is not so
difficult after all, if the servant un
derstands from the beginning what
will be required of her.
Iet the table, when no one is pres
ent but the home circle, be a modal
of what it should be when surround
ed by guests. Lay a piece of thick,
canton flannel under your table
cloth. Even coarse napcry will
look much better with a sub-cover
than if spread directly over the
bare table top.
Avoid the cheap trick of bottle
and restaurants in the arrangement
of napkins and table utensils. Sim
plicity s never ridiculous, while
pretension usually is.
Place the napkin on the left side
of the plate with a piece of bread on
its folds, the fork on the right hand,
next to the knife, witb the sharp
edge turned from the one who is to
) it, beyond this the soup-spoon.
At the point of these set the tum
bler and individual butter plate.
Mats, tablespoons, salt-cellars, and
pepper-cruets may be arranged to
suit one's taste.
