HUMOROUS. One of our citizens is blessed, or otherwise, with a very stubborn wife. In his case he finds that when a woman will she will, you may depend on't, and when 6he won't she won't, and that's an end on't. This peculiarity of dispos** tion in his wile is no secret air-^8 his associates, and one of V1? meeting him the other dw? asked : 44 Well , do you8,fnow w y you are like a donW,' , , 44 Like a dop1^1 echoed W , openio* "is eJe8 wide.? 44 No, I dort\ . a? 44 Do j 0u 8lV0 ^ UP ? ?(juo." ' Because your better half is stubbornness itself." 44 That's not bad. Ha!ha! I'll give that to my wife when I go home." 44 Mrs. W ," he asked, as he sat down to supper, 44 do yon know why I am like a donkey ?'! Ho waited a moment, expecting Lis wife to give it up, but she didn't; she looked at him somewhat coinmiseratingly as she answered : 441 suppose it's becauee yon were born so." W has abjured the habit of putting conundrums to his wife. - A young mother was in the habit ot airing the baby's clothes at the window. Her husband didn't like it, and, believing that if she saw her practise as others saw it she would desist, he so directed their afternoon walk as to bring the nursery window in full view from the central part of the town. Stopping abruptly, he pointed to the offending linen flapping nn<? consciously in the breeze, and asked sarcastically.: * My dear, what is that display in onr window ?" " Why," she replied, " that is the flag of onr union." Conquered by this pungent re tort, he saluted the flag by a swing of his ?hat; and, pressing bis wife's arm closer within his own, as he walked homeward said : " And long may it wave I" - ? Mock Duel.?The Georgians arc making inerry over the farce of a duel between Joe Biown and Gen. Toombs. Here is what the Blackshear Georgian says: " Hark from Bob Toombs y? angry sound? Joe Brown, attend the ery? No living men shall view the ground Where they will shortly lie. For them there'll be no duel beds, In spite of all their jowers? Their tall, their wise, their reverend heads Are about as level as ours." ?? A witty son of St. Patrick was in charge of a ferryboat. A lady passenger, being frightened by the waves, asked him: 44 Are people ever lost by this boat ?"? He gave her the encouraging reply, 44 Not often, ma'am ; we generally find them afterwards by dragging the river." An Irishman, noticing a lady pass down the street, espied two strips depending from under her mantle. Not knowing that they were styled sashes ana were hanging in their right place, he exclaimed : 44 An' faith ma'am, yer galluses are loose I" Squabbmm, an old bachelor, shows his stockings, which be Las just darned, to a maiden lady, who contemptuously remarked, "Fretty gooa for a man darner."

Is suoh a state to be desired ? Legal remedies alene can save as if they are promptly sailed for and as promptly applied, so as to stay all proceedings until a Supreme Court of ther United States would decide op the present . state of affairs, and also decide whether* tb? present rulers of South Carolina are sediM,n* ists and plunderers or not, and who or* in * * ality, opposed to and undermining^**!itlmate form of Republican governmar'- *dmlt that these most daring and dv*aud'n! schemes are legal and constltutior-*1 beoause a bribed body ot human belogr^nd?r form of a legislative body h?'"iauKur*t?d tb*na? would prove a lasting upon the General Government. T>*dm" that the Nation to powerless to Ulegal encroachments, or for experi>''0*d jurists and lawyers to acquissce in .enying a remedy, would provo govern ^bnts, constitutions and lawyers to be little more than a system of charlatanry. Let the tax payers of the State oall a Convention as soon as an order for levying these taxis for interest 1s intimated. Let them determine to petition the General Government, through its executive head, and send one of our respeoted patriarchs from sash County as bearers of a petition from its citliens, expressing our grievances, and however simple as this may seem, a stay may be ordered until matters oan be examined in detail. Again, it would plaoe us in the most favorable social and political point of view. We must discard our old feelings of 8pantoh donnishness ; nor found conclusions on the old regime. We must endeavor to check future encroachments, before they have gained a developed strength. Our oppressors are lively, united and energetic. We must be equally so, and take our case into our own bands. Passive immobility is exact ly on a par with itupid inebriety. If onr oppressors can collect this tax interest before the meeting of the next Legislature, before a future Congress oan assemble, or another President can be inaugurated, no future President will feel himself bound to rake up the embers of a past administration, and by dallying, onr oase may be lost by default. Where shall we find an Amorioan Pitt, Fox or Burke? Who is to prove the equal of Burke in his share of the prosecution against Hastings, and have his namo inscribed on the roll of fame as the courageous and philosoph> ieal lawyer and statesman, that proved him* self one of the saviours of national freedom ? Concessions after concessions have been made to the North from the luauguration of provisional governments to the fulfillment of reconstruction, and as we receded the party in power advanoed. Shall we now yield all, and become outcasts to society and wanderers over the earth? Whilst we are reminded of our position as a minority, we claim the intelligence and wealth of the State. These two facta ?nd elements should act an us potentially. Capital, it div reoted hy uiidom, which is always koneit and energttic, must give us onr natural position. Let each raoe meet continually, and exchange views honestly and truthfully on the present and the future; and let no man hope against hope. If every member, rioh and poor, does pot stand up promptly and at once, we are ir* retrievably lost. EXPERIENCE. For ths Greenville EnterpriseIt is trenching on dangerous ground to qnestion the stability and the prospective, unimpaired vitality of the time-honored Democratic party, but we are living in an era when progression is marked by startling and rapid* ly recurring phenomena; and If. as Demo crats, wo would maintain our position in the front, w? cannot afford to sit by tho wayside listlessly eonnlng over the formal* of a by? gone age. Freely admitting tb* conviction that It is owing mainly to the influence of Demooratio prineiples that this country has hitherto been preserved in a soundly progressiva eondition, the oonriction is equally strong that modified circumstances demand modified treatment? that, in a word, the Democracy of the past is incapable of controlling the faets of the present; and It is with faets, not with theories, that we now har* to do. If the Democratic party falls in the present erisis to launch itself on the flood tide to which it is invited by the present eonjunetnre of affairs thare is very serious ground for ap? prehension that it Is doomed to disintegration and decay. The Republican party has, If I may be al? lowed the expression, succeeded in having Its distinctive features crystallised in the constitution of the oountry, and, protest as we may on principle against tbo Republican theory of gwtvtuiuoutf hv oftoooi nuuuy i|4 prMticil operation. Ilnman nature U not leu human nature In men eolleetlvely than in men individually. The point blank attitude of oppngnaney hitherto maintained by the ltemueratio party to warda all Repnblloan meaaurea baa availed only to make thoae meaaurea more atrlngent; and a continued, unyielding actagonlam will aa largely be followed by almllar eteeaa in Hepublican lagialatioa. Admitting that Demooratio eeneervatleui ta irreeonellable with the blind and headlong progreealveneea of Republioaniam, it aeeda bat little refleetkm to dleeovev that the prevent erlala hu very little to do with pitting abetraot theory agalnat aba tract theory. To endoree a platform In which the eardinal prlnciplea of the Demoeratie party are dietinctly aouneiated eaaaet aatlafy that party j to refeae to endoree each a platform beeaaae It la tha platform ef the Republican party la to man I feat great taal for theory apd a lamentable luhewaimnaaa ta pnwttee. Seeeerrallam, In the atrlet aeeeptatlon tfif term, can never poeeeea enght bat a nafHlve vitality, and therefore eannot exert any vivifying powar.

By this seeeptanoo tbo vitality of the Democratic party 1s not endangered but encored, Its moral as well as pollt{**l influence enbaaeed, and iU future had'wod forth as stable and progressive.

Wo ahoald not judge too barahly of tbeae new converts. The more elderly among them hare doubtleaa weighed oarefully the conflicting oiaima of dependent famiilea and patriot* ism, and, very naturally, patriotism has kicked the beam. Charity begins at borne.' The younger converts, too, may very plausibly ar gue that they hope to hare dependent families, and, in anticipation of this agreeable pros* pect, it is their dnty to ally themselves with the flourishing establishment on the other side of the way. We are pained by tbe defection of the formOr, amused by the glowing eloquence of tbe latter, which brings to our minds with refreshing distinctness the classie story of the fox that had lost its tail. There is so mnoh effervescing sea!, snob abounding charity, snob beautifully-dodged oonelusions in their harangues to the unbelieving that, in spite of oommon scum, grammar and logic, we are almost tempted to surrender that trifling little appendage, honor, and throw ourselves, heart and soul, into the Radical ranks. In tbns attempting to define the present position of the Demooratio party, and to Indicate the duty and policy thenoe resulting, I have only proposed to suggest that the question now before that party can be satisfactorily answered only when it is entertained on ground* more extended than that usually re gardod a* limiting purely party considerations. Intelligent patrlotiam may yet save the oountry. Rigid partisanship will perpetuate the evils under whioh we are groaning, and will assuredly prove to the Democratio party a policy destructive of Its own vitality, and directly oonduolve to the permanence and aggressive character of the present dominant Radicalism.

Again, Dovall moved to amend the 8tb aeetiou by etrikiug out " And all aalee of. tock in the eaid Blue Ridge Rail Road Uompany, in South Carolina, nnd iu companies, formerly held by tbe State, and aold by the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund, be, and they are hereby confirmed."

The sale of the Stoek there referred to, aanonnted to 81,810.000, originally taken by the Slate lo this Road?wbieb was sold to this doubtful, and now uncertain Company, at $1 per share?which shares were $100 each?virtually a gift of tbe peoples' 8toek in ihis Road. This was done by tbe Sinking Fund Commission under the concurrence of Governor Scott. He was mads by law a representative only of this stock of the people?and, he nor the Commission were legally authorised to sell it?the sale was illegal, but this Act confirmed itwrong aa it was, and mischievous as it has turned out. On the question of agreeing to the bill, as it was allowed to remain, the yeas and nays vera called for. and the aaroe names appear io the opposition to ila passage aa above, and the aaroe yeas lor it, with Naali and Whittemore oow added. Thia bill passed Its third reading on the 27 tb of February Io the Senate. Corbin's exposure of its iniquity and powerful appeal notwithstanding. His strong protest is recorded in the Senato Journal, pages 627 to 687The bill now went to the Governor for his signature, Mach 2, 1872. It was return* ed to the Legislature by the Governor, with his objection for not slgoing it. Now eetiie the tug lor passing it over his vote. Now oame In tha use of roooey, as it is honestly believed, and admitted by some as understood io a general way?to buy it through, over the opposition of a few and the Governor.

What made Whittemore and Nash coma to ita paaaagef What made soma others eome to ita aid after speaking against it vtoleotly when first up? Every one must guess for himself. Away goes $1,810,000 worth of the peo pie's stock, almost entirely a gift to thia ruinous company, and $1,800,000 in the ahape of a scrip?-of the people's aaaeete, for no aetua) consideration for it?misapplied and the ease given into the courts. The road not built, nor will it be at least by thia eompany of speculators. The people have a right to hold the Senators especially responsible for this nefarious affair?as it is the grave, supervise ing, and checking?and of eouree, co-ordinate body of the Legislature, Pbosably no candid person who haa studied the returns of the North Carolina election, and intelligently compared them with the previous elections, has doubted that Mr. Merrimoo ?a chosen Governor of the State. But since the fourth day after the result was first announeed, it has been elear that a desperate attempt was making by the administration party fraudulently to give Caldwell a semblance of victory. All the faote point to the exlsteuee of such a scheme, and the latest reports from tha State show I bat it will ba abortive. By lh? time the Legislator# meets, anffleisnt fraud will have be?n proved to overcome the alight majority whioh the frlanda of Caldwtll oow claim for bim, and tdmporas ry advantage of the Adrainiatrailouiata muat fade.
