from St. Petersburg says: As the
Emperor was returning from the
parade in Michael Garden about 2
o'clock Sunday afternoons a bomb
was thrown which exploded un
der the Czar's cariiage, which was
considerably damaged. The Czar

ORANYGEBURG, March 14.--On Fri
day, while the daughter of a white
rwan named Cunningham was going to
-visit a neighbor a mile distant, with
her little a,ister, she was violently as
saulted by a negro who had followed
her. She resisted with much force,
and finding her too strong for him,
the negro seized a lightwood knot and
knocked her senseless.
-The little sister ran for help and
the negro dragged the senseless girl
for one hundred and fifty yards to a
swamp. She partially rallied and
made an.-attempt to secm when he
renewed his attack apon her. Hear

Feeding a Giant. '
chang, the Big Cbiaman, XaMn a Bes
tauraut Keeper Look Blue.
New York Sun.
A restaurateur of Brooklyn lately
had for a guest Chang, the Chinese
"iant.
A Sun reporter happened to dine
at the restaurant several evenings ago,
and had Chang for a neighbor. A
little natural curiosity led him to note
the bill of fare of the giant. First
Ghang ordered oysters, raw, on the
shell ; next, steamed oysters on toast ; I y
then green turtle and printaniere
-oups, and, after that, fish, including -
broiled shad, filet de sole, sauce tar
tare, and boiled salmon with lobster a
sauce.
The reporter thought Chang would &
stop there, but the giant politely sig.
nified to the attendant that he was
vaiting for the next article on his
written bill. So he had..fo,bir&=
trees Turkey , jardiniere, and n
,h*c'ii broquettes and tomato sauce.
Then he attacked with gusto roast ribs
of beef and half a chicken stuffed, ac
companied by fried parsnips, sugar 0
corn, and boiled onions. He appeared c
to weary at this point, and mildly 2
asked for a small plate of plum pud- l
ding, a piece of apple pie, and a little
ice cream, to which he subsequently
added a small cup of cafe noir.
The proprietor was noticed rumina- g
ting in a quiet corner and apparently Ii
9peculating as to the advisability of an
early assignment for the bene6t of his
creditors. To a question by the re
porter as to Chang's wonderful appe- b
tite, he replied with an earnest sigh : s
"Don't speak of it; my gracious. p
I never have had such an experience.
When Capt. Bates, Barnum's giant,
was here I was astonished to see how
little food he required to sustain his i
immense frame; but this Chinese n
giant has the stomach of an ostrich n
and the appetite of a goat. Mind you,
these dishes are not of the order re
Ceived by old diners-out, many of
whom have gone through with a much t
louger list, but they are what we in I
the business call 'full portions,' that
is, any one of the dishes eaten by him
this evening would satisfy the hunger
of an ordinary man. I don't want t
any more giants if they are blessed I
with the appetite of Chang. Why, I s
contracted to entertain him at the rate
of $4 a day ! Just cast your eye over
the bill of fare and see what I would
receive for the same meal from my I
regular customers." a
The reporter did so, and found that r
he would be compelled to pay exactly
$5.95 for a similar repast.
The restaurateur continued:
"Now, you figure it up. There is
$5.95 for one meal. Well, he has I
three other table exercises during the I
day, and one or two 'bites,' as he calls
them. Then he goes to the bar-room,
and to the inquiries of his manager
and others as to his health, replies:
"'I don't feel velly well; lost ap- I
petite.'"

thing except a general reference to
the presence of colored people. There I
were in all fifteen colored persons
there, among them being ex-Senator *
B !ruce, ex Governor and would-be Sen
etor Pinehback, Robert Elliott, once a
member of the House from South Caro
lina, Robert Harlan of Cincinnati, who t
follows runaing racing meeetings for a y
living, and is known to all horsemen, ~
and three or four other colored men
who are less known, employees of the ~
Government in tys city. Each was
accompanied by his lady friends. As 1
it appeared to them that they were fi
not being treated as well as they should ~
be, they formed a little party of their
own and made up a set for the fist C
dance, a lanciers, about twenty feet
from where the Presidential set would I
lhave danced had Mr. Garfield con
sented to take part. There they ~
remained all the evening, taking
part in every square dance that a
was on the programme. Some of the d
younger of the party--all of whom c
were mulattoes except Elliott and his c
wife and one littie black barber named
Elsworth, who works in one of the C
hoitels here-essayed to dance the r
racquet, bnt somehow they did not
seenm to "grab the motion," and could v
not make a success of it. Pinchbback
busied himself escorting his wife
around. She is nearly white, and, like
Mrs. Bruce, is a remarkably flue look- r
ing woman. B3oth are well educated s
and have an intense weakness for din- is
monds, as does Pinebback, who wore
a $5,000 "spark" in his shirt front.

as born April 17, 1818; he was
iarried to a daughter of the Duke
f Hesse April 16, 1841; and as
anded the throne of Russia March
, 1855. He was a man of kind
isposition, but lacking in moral
:urage and in firmness. His de

overnment in Russia and to ame
orate the condition of the people.
[is chief effort in this direction
,as the liberation, shortly after he
ecame Czar, of 23,000.000 serfs or
iaves, a deed that will give him a
lace in history as one of the great
st benefactors of the human race.
le gave to the people a taste of
.berty, which led them to - demand
iore. He excited hopes in the
iinds of the people that he could
.ot, or did not, meet. Much dis
atisfaction arose-; secret organiza
ions were formed throughout the
mpire whose object was to resist
yranny. Efforts have been made
everal times of late years to take
he life of the Czar. Since 1866 he
as lived in constant terror of as
assmnation.
The first attempt upon his life
ras made April 16, 1866 ; a man
amed Karakasoff shot at him with
pistol as he was entering his car
jage.
The second was in Paris June 6,
867 ; he was riding in a carriage
ith two of his sons and the French
rnperor, Napoleon III, when a
ole named Berezowski fired a pis
ol at him ; in attempting to fire
he second time the pistol burst.
The third attempt was December
.1878; a mine of d1ynamite was
ploded under a railroad train
ear Moscow in which the Czar
as supposed to be traveling. The
arties who had prepared the mine
ere familiar with the movement
if the trains ; a mail train was to
ave passed over the road ahead of
he Czar's, but the Czar's train
assed the other before reaching
he mine and went over first. The
roid be assassins thinking it wasi
he mail train allowed it to pass
inmolested, but when the mail
rain reached the place the mine<
'as exploded by means of electrici
y and thme train was blown toi
toms.
The fourth attempt was April 14,
879 ; while taking a walk he was
red at four times by a man named'
koloff, who stood in a few paces<
The fifth attempt was Februaryi
7, 1880O; the dining hall of his 1
Vinter Palace was blown up by
ynamite ; cight men were killed
nd forty-five badly hurt. The
ynanite had been stored in the
ellar and was exploded by means
f electricity. The explosion oc-t
rred just as the Czar and the
yal family were entering the hall. i

The Republicans bave sneceeded b
organizing the Senate. It was t
Kpected all along that the Demo- f
rats would be in the majority ; but I
bis expectation was founded on s
he presumption that Senator Ma
one, of Virginia, was a Democrat,
rhich turns out to be a mistake. c
'ounting Mahone's vote the Demo- f
rats would have had 39 to the Re- -
ublicans' 37. As Mahone has gone
ver to- the other side the vote I
tands 38 to 38, leaving the casting
ote in the hand of Vice President
thur, which means, practically, a
tepublican Senate.
Mahone became a leader in poli.
ics during the Virginia State cam
aigu-in 1880.... He became the
.ader of that branch of the Demo
ratic party in the State which op
osed the payment of the whole
tate debt, their policy being to
readjust" the debt by repudi*ating
large proportion of it: hence this
ranch of the party was known as
Readjusters". In this fight the
egroes generally sided with the
teadjusters, simply because they
vere opposed to the regular Demo
ratic party. On this issae mei -
iers were elected to the State
egislature, and the Readjusters
lad a majority in that body. They
lected their leader, Gen. Wm. Ma
Lone, to the United States Senate.
Jahone claimed all along that he
vas a Democrat. Bqt there have
)een suspicions concerning his po
itical principles for months past,
nd his action in siding with the
lepublicans caused more indigna
ion than surprise.
The Senate was organized the
.8th instant in favor of the Repub
icans; Mahone, of Virginia, voting
vith the Republicans, and Davis, of
:ilinois, with the Democrats, mak
ng the vote 37 to 37, the Vice
?resident casting the deciding vote.

rhe County Teachers' Institute.
As will be seen by an advertise
nent in this issue the Teachers' In
titute of this County will meet at
,he Court House the first Saturday,
>eing the 3d day, of April. With
mnt presuming to instruct the
:eachers of the County as to their
ity, we would earnestly call their
ttention to the importance of their
ttending these meetings and of
naking the Institute a living, active
yrganization. It is impossible to
:alculate the amount of good that
nay be res pod from such an organ
zation when the members take a
>roper interest in it. The gather
ng together of the teat'hers of the
Jounty, the interchange of thought,
he discussion of methods and ss
ems of instruction and discipline,
nd of all the other matters tbat
ppertain to success in the school
oom, cannot fail to be beneficial.
Ehere is no teacher however ac
omplished he may be that will not
earn something useful from an in
erchange of ideas with others in
he same profession. The teachers
af the County are engaged in a
york that will leave its impress
ipon the rising generation ; upon
hem depends to a great degree
hat manner of men and women
he children who are now growing
ip shall be. The teacher's position
s a very responsible one, and he
hould bring to the discharge of its
uties all the training and all the
xperience and knowledge that he
an acquire. He should neglect no
pportunity that tends to render
im a more succes, ful teacher.
We hope to see all the teachers
a the County at the next meeting
f the Teachers' Institute, and that
aterest displaled by each that the
ubject deserves.
The President has sent in the
ame of Stanley Matthews for the I
osition of Associate Justice of thei

'he action of the Senate met withi
be hearty approval of the whole
ountry, for Matthews is known to
e unfit for the position. Garfield,t

WASuHN N. 1). C.,
March 16. P"S1.
ii'a the present week he Uiiited
Statt Senate has slipped liom Demo
er-itic to Republican control. This
Was because of the bargain and sale
het ween Senator Mabone, of Virginia,
a;d certain Republicans. It is the
first instance within my recollection, F0
of so diguified a body as the Senate of
the United States being sold for a
price and to a single Senator. What
the price-is and whether or not Presi
dLit Garfid.:d is expected to pay a
part of it by bestowing Federal patron
age ou the friends of Senator Mahone,
is yet unknown. But the probability
now is that the Senator will control
everything in the State of Virginia
that the Republican party, holding
the Legislative, Executive and Judi
cial branches of its Government can
put in his hands. A
There has never before been such outt
a dishonoring allianee in the politics A
of the country. There never can be that
one that is more so. That Mahone
can expect to strengthen himself in
Virginia, or even to maintain the
standing he has had among his fellow
citizens, after such a trade, is almost C1
inconceivable. That the Senators and
uthers who acted for the Republican
party in waking the negotiations hope
to benefit their party permanently, no
one thinks possible. The truth is A
that Mahone, representing in some GLA
sense a portion of the Southern people,
could with consistency. have acted with
the Democratic Senators. Or he might
with propriety have taken a p 4ition IN
"TO
of independence. His complete alle- 5
giance to those Republicans who not BUt
only hold him in contempt but depend f'U
for their own prominence upon the rT
abuse they can heap on Mahone's
constituents is the political wonder of A
the times. all t
JOE
. The House will go with the Senate. can
Any thought of a Democratic organi
zation of that body way as well be
given up. In all branches of the
Government, for two years at least,
the Republicans will be in a majority.
That they will profit long by it- I do
not believe. In the meantime, there
will be so powerful a minority of Con
servative men in both Houses, and
President Garfield has given so many
indications of a desire to move ca
tiously in all purely partisan matters,
that I do not anticipate a'y immediate
attempt to enact Radical legislation,
or a successful issue of such an at.
tempt if made.A
It is only the simple truth to say
that the Cabinet officers are not yet
fairly at work. Except Post Master
General James, who always refers of
PRI
flee seekers to the President or to
some subordinate of the Departmient,
none of them yet do more than sign
their names to papers presented for,
current work. They are overrun with
men from every section who want
office. The crowd is thinning out,
however, and by the first of April
most of the applicants will begin to-B
realize the foolishness of their eftorts
and go away.4
