derstand they are daisies.

Editor Ledger:—
In vour issue of August 10th is an article
on the subject at the head of this paper. I
think you and all who support your views
have mistaken the basis on which a vindi
cation of llie State enacting Sunday laws
rests. It is that Sabbath rest, or rest from
ordinary labor at certain stated seasons, is
a public benefit. The fact that there is a
religious side to the matter does not render
it a question of mere private conscience.
Laws against stealing and murder have a
religious side, but tiiat does not prevent the
Legislature from enacting them. Thequcs
tion of the Legislature is not, what says re
ligion on this subject, but what says the
good of the jieople. To allow stealing, mur
der, polygamy or Sunday work i*t produc
tive of evil, therefore we prohibit them.
I suppose no man possessed of ordinary
powers of observation will fail to see that
Sunday is a boon of priceless value to the
mass of people who must earn their bread
by the sweat of their brow. It gives a day
for home enjoyment; it clothes the commu
nity with holiday attire; it gives an oppor
tunity for social intercourse; it lays down
for twenty-four hours weekly the heavy bur
denjof wearying toil; it hushes the clang of
the workshop, shades from the torrid sun of
the field, and the very dumb brutes find it
a blessing,
The Sabbath has to some a religious side,
but that extends far beyond the mere phy
sical rest. If the State were to insist on my
going to church, or seizing the opportunity
to worship God, or to acquire religious
knowledge, or thank Got! for creation and
redemption, which the day suggests to the
Christian, I would protest and join with
those who cry out against its meddling with
a religion which is between me and my
Maker.
As it now is, all that the State says is
‘ no work on that day.” Civil government
allows a man who wishes to be drunk on
Sunday to gratify his wish, only it says
“you must buy your liquor on Saturday ”
It permits a man to be anything religious
or irreligious as he sees fit. He may on that
day teach his children Atheism, French So
cialism, Ingersollism. the Bible or the
Shorter Catechism. He may spend the day
in sleep, if he please, or wandering about
the fields or in the company of riotous men,
hut he shall not work.
It is a mistake to suppose that the vindi
cation of the Sunday-rest comes only from
the churches. Sociologists, scientists, phy
sicians, political r^nomkts agree here.
Sabbath rest is a bleka^g to man, he needs
it, and the law adds, “our people shall have
it.” * J. VV.
Wesson, Aug., 1882.
Note from Judge Harris.
The receiverof thesubjoined pleasant note
has, at our request, allowedits publication,
though not written with that view:
Jackson, Aug. 19, 1882,
Hon. G. S. McMillan:—
Dear Judge—I am sure you succeeded
well in presenting Judge Hurst and associ
ates. The address was well conceived, and
the outcome is excellent. It carried me
back to a far off and forgotten time to see it
filled up with the old flesh and blood.
Yours sincerely,
W. P. Harris.
Married.
On Sunday evening, at 1 o’clock, at the
residence of Capt. J. C. Hardy, the bride,s
brother, by Rey. W. B. Binghatu, of Ha
zlehurst, Mr. I. Forsyth, editor of the spright
ly Wesson Herald, and Mrs. Alice E. Ma •
gee, of this place.
The Herald has just entered upon its sec.
ond year, and so elated was Mr. Forsyth
by his pros pec* for success that he felt
justified in yfcing unto himself a life
companion. The ceremony was short but
appropriate, and the injunction to the couple
about to unite their hearts and hands was
feelingly given, and all present joined with
the minister in wishing them a happy and
prosperous life. The wedding was alto
gether private, Mr. Geo. McClendon and
the writer being the only “dead-heads’
present. After the ceremony, all repaired
to the spacious dining-room, and were seat
ed to a table literally groaning under substan
tiate and the mtst palatable luxuries. There
was a perfect bewilderment of clashing
china, browned turkey, hot coffee, delicious
icecream, choicest cake, and delicacies
innumerable. The Ledger sendsgjeeting
to the Herald, and trusts that its editor18
venture upon the sea of matrimony may
prove a journey through life of the greatest
happiness.

Maine’s Motto.
The motto of the State of Maine, “Dirigo
—I lead,” is applicable to Hunt’s Remedy.
It can truly say “1 lead” in point of worth,
merit, and cures effected, ami it rapidly as
suming the lead in sales. In all cases of
kidney or liver troubles, in all urinary com
plaints, it is simply invaluable and unap
proachable, Physicians have discovered this
and freely prescribe it; and hundreds who
have been relieved of dangerous eff'ections of
the stomach, kidneys, and liver bv this great
medicine, chant its praises. Hunt’s Reme
dy can truly say, “I lead out of weakness
and disease into vigor and health.” It is
par excellence the Dirigo medicine.

WOMAN.
HER HEALTH AND LIFE.
Depend more on the regularity of her men
strual functions than on any or all causes
combined. An actual or a living death is
the inevitable result of derangement of a
function which makes woman what she is
in every respect, and especially in her men
tal and bodily constitution. "Hence imme
diate relief from such derangements is the
only safeguards against wreck and ruin. In
all cases of stoppage, delay, or other irregu
larity of the “courses,” Dr. J. Brad field’s
Female Regulator is the only sure remedy.
. It acts by giving tone to the nervous cen
I tres, improving the blood, and determining
directly to the organs of menstruation. It
is a scientific prescription, and the most in
telligent physicians use it.
