I have been asked by different ones to tell something about the Curse of Intemperance in this country. I cannot do it at present,but will be on the lookout for information and will try and give some light on the subject in the near futnre. Living as we do so far from places of importance or from English stations, either Civil or Military, we see none of the effects of it, for it is a disgraceful fact that where the influences of English civilization is at work that the curse is most deeply felt.

The mob which had gathered at Hinton held a consultation, and it was decided to go to Lewisburg. They set out on horseback, about two hundred strong, and arrived at Lowisburg about 4 o'clock iu the morning. They at once surrounded the jail and within a very few minutes Carter was in their clutches. They took the prisoner back to Hinton, but stopped on the way and hung him to a treo on the roadside.Charleston, W. Va., July 24.—News from Hilton, Summers county, to-day confirms the report of the lynching of John Carter by a mob at that place last night. Carter was a colored man atd was charged with the murder of Constable S. V. Reynolds on Monday. John Robinson's cirous was exhibiting at Ilintoa, and while the circus was passing through the street" the town, Carter and another colo'< •* n.u.. had a row. Reynolds started I arrest Carter, who at first defied the ofi; r and then ran. The constable drow a revolver and fired one or two shots at Carter, who began shooting in return. A number of shots were exchanged, three of those tired by Carter taking effect in Reynolds' body, one passing entirely through the breast. Carter escaped the shots fired at him and made his escape, but litter was arrested and lodged in Hinton jail. Reynolds was a very popular oitizen and as soon as it was known he was shot there was great excitement among the population of the town and tbe immediate vicinity. The circus had attracted a considerable number of strangers to the town and threats of lynching Carter were freely made daring the evening. As it grew dark the excitement continued, hut oj overt act was committed until after the evening's performance at the circus was concluded. Bt that time a rush was made for the jail, but the officials, expecting what might be attempted, had taken the prisoner across the county line and lodged him in Lewisburg jail. Chico, Cal, July 2G.—An elopement which occurred here a few days ago culminated in a tragedy here this afternoon. A wedding was to have taken place last Monday between a young man named Raymond Bierce, son of a San Francisco journalist, and Miss Eva Adkins, a beautiful young lady 17 yoars of age. liierce's most iatimate friend is a handsome young man named Neil Uubbs, mid he was to have acted as best man -it- r." » wadding ceremony.

They returned here the next day .iii.l this morning prepared to make a call upon the bride's mother, Mrs Barney. Bierce heard of the intended visit aid went to Mrs. Bar ney's house before them. When Hubbs and hi- :x"_? arrived he entered the parlor and tired at 111: bl»a with a revolver. Hubbs fell to the floor but also drew a revolver and tired. Four shots apiece were tired when Hubbs ran out of the room. Bierce then placed the revolver to Mrs. Hubbs head and fired, indicting a severe but not dangerous wound. Ilubbs re entered the room anil beat Bierce to the iloor with his revolver. Bierce then dragged himself into a adjoining room, placed the pistol to his head and blew his brains out. He lived about an hour and a half. Bierce ' also received two bullets in his body and Hubbs was shot thr' .igh the ab 'jmeu,tho ball penetrating the spleen, li recovery 1 is doubtful.

Norkistonv.v, Ta., July 'JS.—Much ex-J citement prevails in local Grand Army circles at tbe refusal of au officer of the Montgomery Cemetery Company to per mit the burial ot a colored veteran in that ground. Henry Johnson, late of the Uni{ro States colored troops, died on Thursday in th£ alms house, to which place he was sent several days ago. Zook Post, G. A.

The Mussulman of this eountry have imbibed more or less of the caste feelings and prejudices of their Hindoo neighbors. Last summer a gardener, a tailor and some carpenters nndertook to correct a munshi, who is teaching in the school here, for drinking water from our well. He, being better informed than they were, told them that Buch abstinence was contrary to their book and they had better look out or he would report them to the Manl 1 for practicing it. I notice now that they all drink of the "unclean" water from a Christian's well daily and seem to enjoy it, and they do not lie any more or give more gali— abusive language—than they did before. This is the month of their yearly fast, and a great deal of complaining is done by the women that the men compel them to fast. They cook and eat before day break, as from sunrise to sunset no food or drink is allowed to pass their lips. They may not even smoke the hakali. To them t!:is ttiis mast be the greatest privation, for they are veiy fond of their pipes. This fast lasts from the first appearance of the May moon until the first of the June moon. The latter is far more anxiously looked fo< than the former. Once we found one of them searching the heavens long and persistently with a spy glass for the moon that he longed so to see but failed to find. He came back to his brother Mobamadaus that the moon was not there and that they must wait another day for the longed for feast with which the fast always closos. Ah a very natural cousequencp of all tl>is if there is any cholera or other pestilence in the country it lays hold of tbeui. In aome districts last year nearly all tbe fnv»! oholeru cases were Mohamadans. The Cburas are the lowest Oaste bntoiie and they receive the loepel far more re.vlily than tbe higher classes.

Unto the poor '.be G :» • h«fl The different Castes all have their oirn peculiarities and customs, and "oar fathers did so" is sufficient reason for an; and all incongruities i i every walk of life. The Brahmin is astral' re mixture of pride, self righteousness ami „ uttony far famed for the great feed he utces when feasted at the expense of any of his brother Brahmins. He makes a great ado abont keeping himself pure from the touch of any poor unfortunate who may be a little lower in the social scale thau himself, though he is disgustingly filthy in dress and habits. One day in one of our villages an old Meng woman was entertaining us with recitals of the customs of the Braliuin. Among other things she told of one she saw at a feast one time. Said she : "he eat that much," measuring huge dimensions with her hands, "and then did so," shaking herself and jerking her body into the most grotesque shapes, "and then sat down and eat more and then repeated the shaking down." I don't know how much our old friend exaggerated, but it is a very likely story, and what could be more disgusting f A Jcflfereoa ('•■■IJ CUrl Abhi the Zafarwal, India, May 24, 1869. It may be that some think life in India doll and void of all that make* life worth living. If it were only patting in the  without any other motive —without any end in view—then indeed would it be of all livee the most miserable; but granted employment—a heart inter eat in tome work —and it ie everything but mieerable. We have onr hundreds of poor, ignorant women, who, in a peculiar sense, belong to u*. We call them "oar women," and to a certain extent feel responsible for them. We have their language to learn and their dispositions to study. The study of human nature is always interesting, and one finds the same traits of charaoter here that are manifested farther west. We have the pleasing, though often trying, task of teaching them things a great deal better than they have ever heard or known. The difficulties iu onr way are many and varied. Their minds are dark, deep crusted with the coatings of ages of superstition and slavery. They have many cares of this life to engage their attention, they do not see any necessity of their being any better than their fore lathers were. We are unable to visit them very often, and wickedness, like weeds, thrives'.under neglect, and lastly, worse than all, their manlois and husbands often influence them a great deal in the wrong way. We seldom meet with open declared opposition, but a secret enemy is harder to cope with than one who comes out like a man and shows his real colors. A.11 this we have te contend with, but the pleasure of watching the dark minds nnfold when once the crust is broken up is well worth the labor expended on them.
