General Butler says <he babies in Ibe Tewksbury Almshouse have gain ed ten pounds since he became Gover nor. Boiler has his longing eyes on the White House now, and thinks his partiality for babies will materially aid hie boom. Judge Follet, of Ohm, says that the Democrats in that State are strong er to-day than they were at the last election, and are now growing daily in strength. “The alleged fusses in the party,” he says, “are without foundation, and serve rather to make more Democrats I ban to weaken the party strength.” This may be so, and we hope so, but things look rather squally in Ohio. The Charlotte Observer says: “Ohio, Kentucky, Virginia and North Caroli na representatives can all support Mr. Eandnll without any violation of prin ciple or consistency, for these States stand substantially on the snmeground on the tariff question as the Pennsyl vania Democracy, the platform of 'which Mr. Randall is said to have drafted.” We can’t see it that way. But we look through different glasses perhaps. The Augusta Chronicle really don’t want Mr. Carlisle elected Speaker of the next House. It makes this amus ing effort to “taffy” him out of Mr. Randall's way: “The Senate is where Mr. Car’islo would shine conspicuous ly. Ho has just the experience, train ing and temperament for that arena. Ho would at once take front rank and keep it. The chances now are that lie has been outwitted by Mr. Blackburn and may fail in in's ambition at either cud of the Capitol.” The report ly, the Democratic didatc in Ohio, will withdraw in a few days Yefim the race. One of the cir cumstances, gossipers say, that points to this conclusion, is the fact that the Democratic Central Committee were in secret session on last Wednesday, night. All efforts to learn the object of the meeting signally failed, but the members, one and alb, deny the report with much emphasis and indignation. Irrepressible newspaper men have made desperate efforts to get something au thoritatively from Judge Hoadly him self, who is now under treatment in Philadelphia. His physician, Dr. Bar- tholow, was called upon, and ho said with emphasis: “It is right and prop er ;lmt such a statement should be promptly contradicted. I should like to say that Judge Hoadly is r, candi date for the Governorship of Ohio, and that he will resume resume his canvass in a short time. Just as soon as 1 consider that he is equal to the exer tion, ho wHl actively re-enter the light.” Democrats should make every effort possible to stifle such damaging rumors at once, for it is difficult to estimate the injurious effects ef such gossip upon the party prospects for a victory in October. * The New York Sun says of the effects of the approaching election in Ohio: “Ohio is the only State that holds an election previous to Novem ber. It is supposed in some quarters that the result will have an important bearing upon the Presidential election. Wo think this is a mistake. Ohio elects State officers ami members of Congress in October, 1884. The re sult of that contest, may exert some in fluence upon the Presidential election which occurs four weeks later. It is this final judgment pronounced near the close of the Presidential campaign which will, perhaps, be felt in the na tional contest. There is another rea son why the result in Ohio this fall will have slight effect upon the Presi dential struggle of 1884. The main issue in Ohio now is the expediency of the Scott liquor law. This seems to dwajf all other questions. The Re publican party is in favor of sustaining the Jaw; the Democratic party is fob its repeal. The outcome of the con flict will have little or no cfloct upon the struggle of next year, for the ob vious roaeoii <hat the Scott liquor law will not enter into tho contest of 1884 at all. It is not the vote of Ohio five weeks hence that is to affect the Presi dential campaign. It is rather the coming November elections in some of the great States like New York that Will set the current in motion for 1884.” WAS IX DISLOYALTY? It seems as if the Northern press will never grow weary waving the the bloody-shirt. Colonel Rion, in his admirable speech in response to a toast on Jefferson Davis, at Chester some time since, epche in rather glowing and eloquent terms of tho old chief, and characterized him as “ortr hero- martyr patriot”. To his remarks tho Indianapolis Journal takes exception, and calls the Colonel and his Rebel friends to task for their disloyalty. In the course of a long editorial it has this to say: ' The nation has been magnanimous in its treatment of all who went into rebellion. The only adequate return that can be made Is a graceful loyalty to tie old flag and to an undivided country. The Lott Cause can never be galvanized back into life, nor can the dross of State’s Rights be success- ‘fully gilded into pnre gold. The cause went down forever with those who were misguided enough to give it the support of their fortunes and their lives. The person al heroism of Southern soldiers was ad mirable, but ttie lack of judgment and statesmanship of their leaders are things that would better be forgotten by all con cerned. Mr. Davis led a rebellion to main tain slavery. They failed, but their memo ries are honored because of the nobility of their aims. Mr. Davis failed, and when ho dies will pass oat of mind except ns a char acter In history who led a frightful inter necine war in defence of a crime against humanity. He cannot be canonized. The nation, North and South, has pronounced against him and his policy. lie believed iu slavery and State sovereignty. The few who stiil pretend to believe In them are rapidly dying off. Twenty years hence a corporal’s guard cannot be raised to even argue In their favor. It were altogether better, moie patriotic and more honorable to teach the Southern youth the truth as it is. Better let them come into American citizenship conscious that their fathers were patriotic nncT loyal—not to slavery and State io cmignty, 1 ut to universal freedom and one common country. There is in the ex 1 ' ract above given just about as much truth as originality, and to our minds there is scarcely an infinitesimal of either. The old hack neyed boast of Northern magnanimity to the conquered South is, inviotv of the real fact of recent history, ntthlsc as it is insulting, and the oft-repeated abuses of Jefferson Davis will make about as much impression upon the Southern mind as the pitching of a rubber ball against a wall of adamant. The name and character of Davis is deservedly honored throughout the whole South ern country, and Colonel Rion did but voice the sentiment of all classes of our people when he pronounced him our “hero-martyr patriot”! Loyalty to the government of the country does not and should not require such sacri fices at our hands. The Wonders of Java.—Java is wonderful enough as a luxuriant trop ical region; but as a volcanic region its marvels arc uncqualed. It is at once a paradise and an interuo— aland where in nature has strangely intermingled life and death, beauty and moustrositv, splendors and horrors. There are thirty-eight active volcanoes there—all averaging 10,000 feet in height—which s country; it is veritably “Valley of the Shadow of Death.” “Every living being mud. At Taschcm, in the eastern extremity of the island, there is a lake impregnated with sulphuric acid, out of which flows a river of acid water in which no living creature can exist: the banks are barren and ghastly and desolate; where that river enters the sea no fish may live. And who has not heard of the Gucv.o Tpac, the “Valley of I’oison,” near Batur, which is the giant hollow formed by the crater of a dead volcano? Sir diaries Lvell, the geologist, tells us that this vallev is justly an object ol terror to all ‘the surrounding the which penetrates into this valley falls down dead; ami the soil is covered with the carcasses of tigers, deer, birds, and even the bones of men—all killed by the abun dant emanations of carbonic npid gas by which the bottom of the vallev' is filled.” There are tnanv lesser vallevs of a similar clmracter, filled with dead creatures, whoso remains are strangely preserved by the sulphurous air, even beneath that blazing sun. The bones alone decay in that atmosphere; tho flesh and skin and hair remain un changed during the passing of centu ries.—aV. O. Times-Democrat. 4 She Preserved Her Own Fruit. She had a fancy for poaches in the old “pound to pound” way, just as her mother used to do them. And she used her moth er's old fashioned preserving kettle. The kettle upsfct and sent its scalding contents over the unhappy lady’s feet, as she stood l>efore the kitchen lire. They put her to bed and treated the scalded parts with Perry Davis’s Pain Killer, the sover eign remedy for burns, scalds and blisters. In two or tiiree days she was well. * A WORD IN SEASON! I HAVE NOTIFIED THE FARMERS of Fairfield to bring in their OLD GINS for repairs. But they are not doing so, and I am not able to disappoint a purchas er of a new giu for the repairing of an old one. Go parties need not bring their gins In just when they need them and expect to “take them out iu iny wagon,” or “get them Saturday when tho wagon comes in.” I want to do all the work I can.

To the point: There is nomndet feed. <♦ It has fewer working parts than any other Machine. .... Tiie old method of feeding below is en tirely done away, and all the complicated connecting machinery dispensed with in this new Machine. , . - It is the easiest running, because it has the least number of parts-to .move, and, consequently, there is less friction and wear. All its parts are made of the finest Steel and tempered hard. ■ Steel rolls and pivots are used for bear ings, to prevent friction and insure light ness of running. All the work on this Machine is of the highest grade, and will compare favorably with the workmanship of a Winchester rifle.
