SNAKE STORIES.
"Do you want a snake story as is a snake
story ?*' said uncle Jim Clark, rushing into the
office in a great state of excitement. Of course
we wanted a good snake story, and told him
our columns are always open to snake and
fish stories, provided they are on the marvelous
order and can be veri6ed.
"Well," said uncle Jim, "Grief Brian killed
fifty-eight moccasin snakes the other day,
and I can prove it!"
"Prove it by whom ?" we asked, warming
up on the subject.
kjmapif." was the ready
- Uujr, uj UiIWi U?M?VW..y . ^
reply.
Grief is well known in this community, as
a colored man "full of truth," and while we
could not impeach his veracity, we asked, dubiously,
"No other witness?"
"O yes, Mr. W. H. Quinn and his daughter.
Both of them "saw and counted the
snakes after they were killed, on Mr. Quinn's
plantation?only last Wednesday?and it was
not a good day for snakes either."
The explanation of this remarkable snake
story was then given in a few words. Grief
killed three large moccasins, and inside of
one of these were fifty-five young ones, each
fully ten inches long, and in a lively state of
activity?appearing as though they were just
ready to enter upon the trials and temptations
of the world. This adventure not only entitles
Grief to the palm, but unmistakably
proves the remarkable fecundity of the moccasin
snake.
One day during the same week, Mr. Frank
M. Walker killed four rattle-snakes while
hauling saw-stocks from a piece of wood land.
Two of these snakes were killed together, and
afterwards he killed the other two in adifferent
locality, but all within the course of one or
two hours.

THE PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRACY.
The Democratic State Convention of Pennmriirantft
mpt in Harrisbure ou the 22ud ulti- j
^
mo. Many of the most prominent Democrats
in the State were present. At 12 o'clock
Capt. Wra. McClelland, Chairman of the
State Central Committee, called the Convention
to order and presented the list of delegates
returned to hira and then handed the
Convention over to them. The Hon. Mr.
Stenger, who, it may be remembered, made a
strong speech against the half million subsidy
to the Centennial Exposition, which it is fair
to say has been paid back, was permanent
Chairman of the Convention. He said:
Gentlemen of the Convention?Accept my
sincere thanks for the honor of being selected
to preside over your deliberations. I congratulate
you that we meet with a, full representation
from every district in the State. There
is one striking fact about the Democratic party?it
never dies. Others rise and fall and
go with the ideas that called them into existence,
but the Democratic party lives on
amid all vicissitudes, because its principles
are those of the Constitution. It has been i
defeated, laid out for dead, defrauded (wild
applause,) but still it lives, aud our opponents
may as well take notice from its vitality that
while earth lasts, like seed time and harvest,
Democratic Conventions shall not cease. De

of the fact that while I speak, the chair of
Washington and Jefferson is filled by a man
rejected by a quarter of a million majority of
the American people and a decided majority !
of the electoral votes of the States. The wis-1
dom of the recent Democratic policy is being
vindicated by the Hayes administration in
two points especially. In 1874 a Democratic
majority, elected to the lower house of Congress,
instituted a plan for the adjustment of
public difficulties by applying the policy of
economy, retrenchment and reform. They
steadfastly adhered to it, and sixty million
dollars were thereby saved to the nation. Every
Republican newspaper said the Democratic
House was crippling the government,
and was cruel to its employ6s, but a few days
ago the financial Secretary of the Hayeu administration
goes to Ohio and claims credit
for his party because it has recently dismissed
a thousand employes. It was compelled to
do so by the Democratic House, and now
' credit is claimed by the Hayes administration.
The Democratic party urged the removal of
the army from the South. It was felt that
peace and prosperity would come to the
Southern Stdfefc only |n t&is/eveig, end?'that
business derangements only then would cease.
The House stood firm as a stone wall agairist
the proposition to pay the troops unless it was '
.expressly stipulated that the army ?hot)ld n<^t
-be used to su&afn bogus State governtnefitb.
It was a. unit for the. bill.wth this included;
a unit against it unless it was included, and
uow Sherman is praising Hayes because he
adopted the Democratic policy?another instance
of economy, compelled by, the Democratic
policy, credit for whichh's claimed by
the Hayes administration. I jdo not propose
to detain this Convention with ant extendedspeech,
but to follow the experience of my
predecessor, venerable in Democracy if not in
years. You'are competent to discbarge your
duty, and in that way invoke fiarraony.-'-But

submitting, for the sake of peace and order
and the prosperity of our free institutions, to .
the most monstrous political fraud of any age,
for the act of the Electoral Commission was a
foul stain upon our national honor, which all
the rains in the sweet heavens cannot wash
out.
ThespeecTTwas very frequently interrupted
by .applause, add every allusiohi&) 'theiridt of
the Electoral Commission was loudly cheered.
The Convention adopted, t^e following:
The Democratic party of Pennsylvania, and
their delegates in Convention assembled, do
declare, first, that tfye induction of Rutherford
B. Hayes iuto the office of President, notwithstanding
the election of Samuel J. Tilden
thereto, was a high crime against free government,
which has not been condoned, and will
not be forgotten. The same spiritof patriotism
which forbore contest upon the first offence
will resist and punish any attempt at a second.
The Convention reaffirmed and adopted the
financial resolutions of the National Democratic
platform adopted at St. Louis in 1876.
THE CUBAN-SPANISH WAB.
From what may be regarded as the highest
authority, it can be stated that the revolutionary
war in Cuba, so far as Spain is concerned,
is in its decade. Nearly ten years
ago the war began, aud since that time Spain,
with ail her resources, seems to have been
unable to check the progressive spirit of the
revolution. In the beginning the revolutionists
were confined to the extreme southeastern
and mountainous part of the island.
The Spanish government then had complete
control of nearly four-fifths of the territory of
Cuba, and with the aid of its fleet possessed
every seaport town. But gradually, and des
pite all the difficulties of their position, the
revolutionists have crept onward, until they
have now reached a point beyond the vicinity
of Puerto Principe, leaving to the Spanish
government less than one-half of the island.
How long Spain intends keeping up the war
is not certain, but it is known that great preparations
are now in progress at Madrid looking
to the sending of a large army of reinforcements
to Cuba, under one of the ablest
Spanish Generals of the age, Gen. Martinus
Campbell, for the purpose of inaugurating a
determined winter campaign. It is not that
Spaiu is desirous of continuing the war; on
the contrary, she has long since tired of it,
?nd would nrefer its abandonment, but she is
guided in it by the feelings of the Spanish I
subjects in Cuba, between whom and the patriot
residents there exists the greatest partisan
hatred. However, even these resident
Spaniards are beginniug to see the hopelessness
of their endeavors to suppress the rebellion,
and are reported to have recently made
overtures to prominent rebels whereby hostilities
may be ended.
They have agreed, and the Spanish government
is willing, to grant to the Cubans the I
right to local self-government and taxation,
or as they are pleased to call it,anautonomicai
government, consisting of home rule, subject |
to the crown ofSpain. This was all the Cu:
bans formerly dewredT'O'lcPrii ?t was for this- that
they first rebelled. But uow, encouraged
by their success, they reject all such proposi- j
tions and look forward to nothiug short of
absolute independence. Spain stands ready
to grant them all they at first deinauded, but
true to examples of successful revolutions in
general, and that of the American war for independence
in particular, now that their enemiesare
willing to make concessions, they insist
upon dictating terms of peace to suit themselves.
The Madrid government, therefore,
in view of all these facts, now seems bent on
making one more great aud vigorous effort to
Dutdown the rebellion, failing in which it is
quite probable that the war will be virtually
ended.?National Republican.

ANNOUNCEMENT
OF THE
YOEXVIILE FEMALE INSTITUTE.
IN re-organizing the Corps of Instructors
in this Institution, the Trusteas
take great pleasure in saying that
they have secured the services of W.
R. JONES, A. M., Mrs. CLARA D.
McLEAN and Miss FANNIE MILLER, in the
literary departments, and Miss SUEF. LOWRY,
in the musical department
In recommending these teachers, for pnhlic
patronage, we would say that Mr. JONES is a
native or tnis state, a graduate irum uw ouum
Carolina College, a Christian gentleman of highly
cultivated talents and attainments; from choice
and by profession a teacher; and brings to his assistance
an experience of twenty-live years in
High Schools and Colleges, in this and other
States, which aptly fits nim for the moral and
mental culture of those entrusted to his care.
No one is more eminently qualified than Mrs.
McLEAN for the position which she assumes.
Possessing, as she does, a mind of acknowledged
ability, trained with the utmost care, imbued with
the progressiveness of the age and fully appreciating
the importance of female education, she
brings to bear upon her pupils all the happy influences
which she has acquired by a long experience
in teaching the schools in Charleston, in
this State, and also in Schools in other States.
Too great importance cannot be attached to the
training of little children ; and it often requires
months of tedious labor for an experienced teacher
to eradicate from their minds what has been
improperly or imperfectly taught, before a proper
foundation can be laid on which to build a
substantial education. To avoid this difficulty,
we are fortunate in being able to place Miss
FANNIE MILLER in charge of the Primary
Department. Her sympathies with the young
soon win their affections; and when such is the
case, rapid progress in learning soon follows.
Miss SUE F. LOWRY has been so faithful and
conscientious in the discharge of her duties, and
given such entire satisfaction in her department,
that it is only necessary for us to ask for her that
liberal patronage which she so much deserves.
In order that all may avail themselves of the
benefits to be derived from this thoroughly organized
and strictly disciplined school, we offer
the following
