' v, ,' TjttiiJJOUKNAIi. II. 8. SUNS'. Editor, NEW BERNE, N. C, MAY 8, 1883. entered at the' Post office t New Berne', N Oi, Tub Seneca Nation of Indians on the Allegany Reservation in New York have petitioned to the Interior Department to have the white squatters ejected from the Reservation. They claim that they 1 - 1 - J .1 A- J 1. . are aemoranzeu uhu vurrupieu vy havinfli6 .whiifii on Ahft reserva. tion, and declare that their women cannot, without danger of insult, pass through some ot the villages. A sad commentary upon the whites; surely thoW'on' the'.' Reservation most be of the trash." u . BB4S14CGJ AGAIN B A It RED OUT. The TiouslB of Commons, byi. majority of three, refused a second reading of Mr. Gladstone's Affirma tion bill, on the ,3d Jnst., which action still bars Mr. Bradlaugh from taking his seat, notwithstanding he has asked, to be permitted to take the oath. il The" trouble seetos to be that Mr. BradlatfgnJ" having pub licly denied the sanctity of the oath, was refused his seat, though willing to go through "with the form, The . New, York Sun thinks there are many other ;,members that have been seated who iaVe no more re gard for the sanctity of the oath than Mr. Bradlaugh but were fortunate enough to keep their "opinibns to themselves. t That paper gives the following views on the case: ' " It is settled, then, that the House of Commons is willing to place itself on record as the most bigoted as- semDiy tnat' exists in any part oi the civilized world. Hot , only in , the United States should we treat with derision even if such an act of folly were not forbidden by the constitution any attempt to de- on the score of his opinions touch ing ineorfljaj.nagOTOrnmenE oi the universe, but the same thing may be - said of every European country which enjoys even the semblance of free institutions. l?ifhn in ttiA TrnnAli flhamlinr ef Deputies, nor In the German Reich stag, nor in the Prussian Landtag, nor in the Italian .Legislature, nor in theAustrain Reichsrath. nor in the Hungarian Diet are the forces of intolerance 'strong enough or bold enough ;.; to prevent avowed agnostics from . discharging the lawmaking functions with which electors have , seen fit to invest them.4 Even in a land which Eng lishmen look upon as so benighted .and backward; as Spain, the Prime Minister, Sagasta, is ashamed to make admittance to the Cortes depend oe the profession of particu lar religious opinions, and has prom,. ised to effect the substitution of some form of - affirmation for the usual oath in certain cases. Not only is the rejection of the Affirmation bill a triumph for fana ticism, but the refusal to permit Mr. Bradlaugh to take the oath was an infringement of the. rights of the borough of Northampton whose eonstitutioniaity is extremely quea tiohable. .What right had., the " noose-to go behind the formal offer . of a member elect to conform with its rules! - Where does it get the anthority to - investigate a man's previous professions and present motives, and to decide arbitrarily that an act ostensibly correct is in reality an evasion of the lawf . It is true that subsequently to bis first election Mr. Bradlaugh published a statement that he should insist up: on, maki$. . affirmation, onthe -round tLafc the . prescribed oath would not be binding on his consci t - :3.rtif til ITou.se can take cog- i .:..:iea cf sacu declarations" made z"zt the -election of a . member, wliy may it not also notice equiva- t rircrtions or ftdmirRions made I : cr. l election Ij Lvil And if : 'l :L.tcJ-" avowal of athci.;.a J be held to tlisqualify for Id those ..oir . as: ) secret of i in conver. ostic ation escape a .:a: penalty? It is notorious a considerable numter ..of . the members who voted on this very motion to exclude Mr. Bradlaugh reject the Christian conception of God and the dogma of immortality and we might name several -whose atheistical views have been dis tinctly divulged in their published writings. But they took the oath promptly and quietly, regarding it as a mere formality;" whereas Mr. Bradlaugh had the candor to ac knowledge; what they, for the mo ment at least,' concealed.' The On ly difference, between him and his fellow atheists is that i they added hypocrisy, or, as they would call it, a judicious reticence,' , to their ob noxious ideas upon 'refigious f sub jects. ;? - l: :C,S y-.,:J;ZVL ':-i.''i But Mr. Bradlaugh, it seems, f. is the 6nlyinan In the United King dom who cannot be allowed to be a hypocrite. He must not , even be suspected of hypocrisy for although nearly three years .".have idapsed since he expressed agnostic opin- ion8,and although for aught that the House knows about the matter he may have abjured! them long ago, he has been thrice refused his seat, and meanwhile the .borough l of Northampton has' been deprived oi a seat to which it is constitutionally entitled. ' That the offer to take the oath will ultimately be held a legal compliance with the rules of parlia ment cannot be donbtlul , to those who remember what came of: the analogous attempt td partially and temporarily , uistranchise the bor ough of Westminister lor jts pe- sistence in returning Wilkes. There was but one way of avoiding' the virtual admission that -' the oath is meaningless in the month of many members and that ' was . to allow affirmatioa to be substituted. Mr, Gladstone at last sat;this, but the reactionists and bigots would not Sfee it; hence the quandary ' into which the House Of Commons been plunged., 'n p--t tiwSi The Isle of Woe...f All the lepers found in the Ha waiian group are banished for life to the-island ot Molokai. i Prom time to time a Government 1 mandate- is ssued reauiring all 16per f to; report themselves to the' health-officer , of their district.,-; He inspects them and reports them to the sheriff, who has the leper removed to the isle ot Woe. The law is binding on rich and pooruative and foreigner men and women? as the1 isolation f the few is the only , hope of safety for many. About . eight hnndred loners are at present upon the is land. . - ( The village has its chnrches, schools, ' stores, and Government offices. The resident Superintend ent is Mr. Clayton Straun, a white man. Alter residing for a time at Honolulu, he' went to Philanelphia. While there the loathsome leprosy declared itself. He' immediately returned tb the Sandwich Islands that he might end his days on Molokai. ":Miss Cummingsrin her description of this settlement of lepers, thus "speaks of one 'i who, though not a leper, has chosen as his earthly ' abiding-place.. TShe says: . r- One there is whov in pitying love to these outcasts, has voluntarily taken his place for life ;in. their midst. 3 Father: Damieu,' a yonng Roman Catholic . priest,' resolved some years ago to . devote ' himself to this work, and,' following in the Master's steps; seek! and strive to save those poor sheep in the wilder ue8s.; i '! 's r , It was truly, a n6ble act; for apart trom the daily horrors of his snr roundings, there must be the ever present knowledge that he may one day develop sy m ptoms of the death ly doom. , - i Hitherto that devoted life has been mercifully preserved, and the gbod yonng father continues to be a centre of brightness and sunshine in that sad colony. : ; v - The Protestant congregation is in charge of a native pastor,himself a leper there are several snch on the island): and the poor little chil dren born to such a heritage of woe are taught by leper teachers in two schools. .... . . ..' !

"Stick to your trade," says an exchange, "nine tenths of all the failures of the last year have come to men who were dabbling in out side affairs." , There could not be more truth crowded into a few lines than is contained in the above. As a general thing :when ' you hear of the failure of a man in busi ness you can set it down that he has been dabbling in something he knew nothing about, and has sunk the money needed in his legitimate business. The merchant, even in country .villago, who ; attends strictly to business, may in time lay by a snug little sum, but as soon as he commences to speculate in land, or even trade horses, he is liable at any time to hear something drop on account of taking the money needed in his business foe specula tive- purposes. The -, farmer who works hard all summer, sows 'and rearm a good harvest, and puts the proceeds ol the sale of his wheat in to his pants pocket and goes to speculating in pork, may eventually find a mortgage plastered down ov er his property that it will take years of frugal industry to remove. You hear ot , the taiiure oi a mer chant engaged in .trade and in nine cades out often, you can trace t the course the fact that he bad:, a few thousand dollars invested in wheat wben the price tumbled 'and the bottom leu out ot . his scheme lor mating o ntue money Dy oui side speculation. "A merchant may be all right,' and level-headed m his trade, he can weigh out codfish and sugar, or drive a sharp bargain in buying a load of green bides or a ton of butter but when he has . a few thousand - dollars invested in wheat, or pork, or lumber, and the Drice takes a drop, he loses his bead and is laid out coulder than a inack- The' papera in the northwestern part of the- State recently related the circumstances oi how a minister came to grief through -speculation; He was a real nice man, and a mm ister, stood high in the estimation of his friends, bat when he got, the the idea that; his salary was too small, ant that he would invest s portion of it in a little outside spe dilation, and thus make a few thousands for faihy day; there neV- eriwas a minister more sadiy lctt. ; Lack of business tact, and knowl edge in the ways 'of the' world of trtiffle. led him to make wild snecu lative deals, and soon the reaction I set in. He could preach eloquently and hardly a Sunday "passed but what he garnered "into the ,1'old & freshl'lot of souls; but when it came to garnering unto his pocket, even a: little' margin on- a pork deal, he missed bis calculation, and lost all ho had, and considerable more than H ougbt to, as shown by the. bills which came in from around; town, which he had neglected while inves ting his loose change in speculative schemes. , "Every ' man to his trader" is a saying as true as it . is ancient. ' ' , ' ' There are 'instances, of course, where men have left their grocery in the farrow and took up specula tion; abd strnck it rich, or - where ministers have beat their hymn book's into railroad stocks, . and madei aibrtunei at one, strike, but these instances ; are scarce very scarce. The cashier of a bank, or treasurer of a State who lays awake nights fixing. up schemes for mak ing a million, dealing fn "futures," or holding a hnndred thousand dol lars' worth of butter and eggs, for atise, are forever " coming to grief, while the men in similar ; positions, who salt fifty cents on every dollar of their salary in an old stocking, and, don't try to beat ; the ;"faroV banks, or own the fastest.horses on the earth; get to the .front and. be come solid men,; There are enough men to doallihe speculating there is any necessity fordoing; men who have become hardened in the busi ness, and who lose or make, thous ands wthout a blush or twitch of the muscles. -; h-a: ; iThese men , don't, as a general thing, lose their heads, and make bad breaks.' They are accustomed to the business; and the rest of mankind should be content to let them buy all the stocks and bonds, and. wheat and pork, and make or lose just as it happens, they enjoy excitement that , would, turn some men's hair gray in forty-eight hours and the business and professional men should be content to let them enjoy it. There tire thousands of men bucking against fate, trying to make a lortune by speculation, who if they had ten millions of dol lars worth of the best stocks or bonds in the world, would, in the shortest possible time if they per sisted in speculating, be Iaid'ouh financially, so flat that they ; would be obliged to work a lunch route.
