PRIDE OF BIRTH.
What I am gwine to remark," observed
the old man as Elder Toots quietly dropped
olT to dream of the canefields of the olden time,
"am to de effec dat dis club doan keer two

hung for wakin up a policeman asleep on a
beat or sot in de halls of Congress wid his hat
on his ear an' his fame tloatin' over ebry country

but de libbin' member dat we has to do wid.

which could i?ay a milk-bill widout havin'

"Judge a man as you find him an' doan1

de meanness expected of de son of a convict.
If dar am any member in dis club who wants
his lineage traced back six or seven thousan'
y'ars to see whether his relashuns took first or

him go ahead; but at de same time I feel it

The roll was called, and not one member of
the 164 present responded. When the call had
l>een finished, Prof. Kussforth Parker arose
and asked if there was any objection to liis
taking steps to find out whether his father
was a poet or blacksmith. "Bar' am !" was
the prompt reply, "kase it would be a loss of
time. I knowed de old man myself, an' kin
inform you dat he was nuflin' but a werry
common nigger, who wouldn't do an hour's

Bkaf axd Bumb,?Quietly entering a barl>er
shop, the stranger removed his hat and
coat and taking a card from his j)ocket wrote
011 it:
"I want to be shaved."
A barber stepped forward, read the card,
and, pointing to a chair, said to his brothei
artists: 4
"Beaf as a brass kettle and dumb as an oys
ter."
The mau straighteued himself out in the
chair, when his manipulator began latherinc
his face.

''Stick a pin in him and see if he is entirety
dumb," said another.
The victim remaining undisturbed, the following
shots were fired at him by the delighted
tonsorial artists:
"He needs a shampoo, his head is dirtiei
than a cess-pdol."
"Shave him with a stool leg, don't spoil
your razor on that stubble."
"Gracious, what a breath ! It smells like a
Hutch band of music."
"He ought to rent that nose for a locomotive
head-light," &c.
While all these complimentary allusions
were flying about him, the operation of shaving
was finished, and the man arose, put on his
coat, and then turning to the astonished barber
said :
"How much for the shave and compliments
V"
"I?I?I?I," gasped the astonished man,
"Oh, nothing?nothing, call again, excuse"?
and, as the stranger left the shop, the discomfited
barbers swore that they would never believe
in a deaf and dumb man again, until they
had first fired a ten-pound cannon about his
ears.
A Short-Winded Colored Man.?Col.
Percy Perger, although a kind husband, a
leading member of the church, a patriotic
citizen, and otherwise a high-toned Austin
gentleman of culture and refinement, is, nevertheless,
not in the habit of meeting promptly
his pecuniary obligations. He owes everybody,
including Sam Johnsing, his colored carriage
driver, to which trusty Jehu he owes
a year's back wages. Of late, Col. Perger has
been exhibiting no uneasiness, whatever, about
the matter, much to the mental disquietude of
the faithful African.
''Boss, I tenders a vacancy in my department,"
exclaimed Sam, yesterday, having
screwed his courage up to the sticking point.
"Why, Sam, what is it that perturbs you so
much ?"
"I'se disturbed boss, bekase, I'se a short
winded niggah. My lungses is defected."
"Judging from the way you shout at campmeetings,
I should infer that your organs of
respiration and articulation were in a i?erfectly
normal condition."
"I reckon dey is, boss, ef you say so, but
I'se a short winded niggah, all the same. I
can't run wuff a cent."
"What occasion have you to indulge in such
violent pedestrian exercises?" asked Col. Perger,
with his usual suavity.
"Boss, does yer disremember me asking yer
when yer was gwine ter pay me my wages,
an'yer tole me my wages was runnin' on all
right ?"
"Yes, Sam, your pay is running on vet.
There no occasion for apprehension."
"Jess so, boss, but I'se a shortwinded niggar,
an' my wages has got such a big start ob
me in de race, dat I feels hit in my bones dat
sich a short-winded niggar will neber be able
to ketch up. Dem dar wages am bound to

Where He_ Got Smith?One day several
years ago, an eastern man aroppeu into a village
in this State and made known the fact
that he was anxious to purchase a general
store. There were several in the town, and
all willing to sell, but the stranger said he
would hang around "for a few days to see
how much business was being done. One
of the dealers, named Smith, saw where
a litte extra work might count for a good deal,
and he called in a fellow townsman named
Gilbert, and said :
MNow, Gilbert, I want to sell, and I want
lo give that Eastern chap an idea that 1 am
doing a staving cash business. Here is $20.
and 1 want you to come in about 4 o'clock
and trade it out in sugar and tea, and say
that you will send for the stuff to-morrow."
Gilbert pocketed the cash and was on hand
at the appointed hour. The stranger was in
the store with his eyes wide oi>en, and Gilbert
walked in and called out :
"Say, Smith, I'm coming in to-morrow to
pay you $75."
"That's all right," was the reply; want anything
today?"
"Well, I might look at an overcoat."
Smith winked and winked, but Gilbert insisted
on looking over the coats, and finally found
one to suit. Then he helped himself to a pair
of boots and a hat, and laying down the $20
he remarked :
"Take your pay out of that. I reckon I've
saved at least $3over any other store in town."
He was given ninety cents in change, and

LEGISLATIVE INJUSTICE.
The last Legislature of South Corolina failed
, to give satisfaction in many particulars to the
j jteople of whom it was the representative liody.
j But in no particular that we now recall did it
! exhibit a more insolent aud shameful sense of
injustice, or a greater disregard for the fitness
of things, than in the part of the election law
which relates to the .Commissioners and Managers
of elections. After providing a system
of elections which, in expensiveness, complication
and cunibrousness, indicates no lack of
ingenuity in its inventors, these gentlemen are
seized with a sudden lit of economy, and, in
perfect keeping with their various other freaks
in this line, they declare that 110 jier diem,
mileage, or other compensation shall lie allowed
the Commissioners and .Managers of election,
or the clerks employed l?y them.Thus
the Managers are required tosp-nd their time,
labor, and perhaps money, in making the necessary
preliminary arrangements for holding
the election, and get no compensation or return
whatever. Then 011 the day of election,
they must confine themselves closely, through
the livelong day, without any intermission, to
the labor, and not infrequently, the danger of
conducting the election, prolonging their la
bors far into Hip night, to count the votes and
i ascertain results. And lastly, they must,
"within three days," make their projier re1
turns, this duty itself requiring, in most instances,
a day of laborious travel, at their own
expense. The labor and trouble of conducting
the election is at least double what it was
under the old law, and yet even the scanty pittance
which that law allowed for honest work
is taken away. In a majority of instances,
' the Managers are selected from those engaged
' in mercantile pursuits, who of all others would
most enjoy, and be most lienetitted by the day's
respite of a legal holiday; and yet they are exi
pected to make this sacrifice as a patriotic
' duty, whilst their fellows are refreshing themi
selves with the amusements of a day of leisure.
But perhaps the most unseemly part of the
s law is that which imposes heavy penalties on
> all those who are engaged in this lal>or of love
for any dereliction of duty. It literally bristles
with prohibitions and pains and penalties
. for these devoted subjects?the pains and penl
alties ranging from a $100 tine up into the
! thousands, and from three months' imprisonment
up to years in jails or penitentiaries.
It is unworthy a great State to make such
, exactions of her citizens without proper com
pensation. The constitution provides that no
man's property shall be taken for public use
. without compensation, and a man's time and
labor are proi>erty just the same as his lands.
! The Managers in Abbeville county have faith;
fully discharged their duty and should be paid
for it. We suggest that the legislature, when
? it makes the annual appropriation this year
for the University, canal and Militia provide
f that the first $15,000 or $20,000 of the same he
applied to pay the managers and defray the
other expenses of the late election.?AbbccilU

, Republican party has developed such a growing
incapacity to make head against acknowledged
abuses that it has lost the confidence
of its own adherents. In Pennsylvania, New
York, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, New Hampshire,
and Massachusetts there has been either
i open revolt or such a distracted and inharmonious
leadership that the grand old party has
an' easy prey before Democratic opposition.
It is not too much to say that Tuesday's
work is the result rather of Republican disintegration
than of Democratic effort or
strength.
The fruits of the victory it is too soon to
measure; but it is certain that the legislative
power of the Federal Government has passed
into the hands of the Democratic party, and
that its strength has been largely reinforced in
every department of State and municipal administration.
The ground has been broken
, for the complete restoration of the Goverraent
to the hands from which it was torn at the
outset of the civil war. This is a great change,
but it is not a calamity. No one party in this
country ever had a monopoly of civic virtue or
of administrative ability. The people have
l>ecome restive under the pressure imposed
I by an organization which has proved itself in,
capable of self-amendment. The task of reform
and regeneration is a herculean one ; but
! it is the very essence of Republican government
that one party or the other must undertake
it. When both fail the government itself
is a failure.?Philadelphia Record.
1 The Next IIot'se.?Iu the next House of
Representatives the Democrats will have a
considerable number of fairly able and prominent
men, but 110 leader of conspicuous
strength. Mr. Carlisle of Kentuckey and Mr.
Randall of Pennsylvania would be a strong
team if they had any faculty for working together,
but fhey have not and it will be interesting
to see which of the elements they respectfully
represent will prove the stronger. Mr. Carlisle
will have the aid of Mr. Morrison, who
is one of the most sincere, as he is one of
the best equipped Congressmen with liberal
ideas on the Democratic side. New York
will contribute Mr. Cox, Mr. Ilewett and Mr.
Dorsheimerto the debating force of the party,
but these gentlemen will not add greatly to
the probable harmony or efficiency of the party
action. Mr Ilolman of Indiana is an exceptionllay
honest man, too much so to be a Democratic
leader, and is generaily found on the
skirmish line quite as often raking his own, as
the other side. Mr. Randolph Tucker of Virginia
is also a very upright and able man, but
is, if anything, rather more lonesome in the
Democratic ranks than Ilolman, being afflicted
with rather radical convictions 011 several
important subjects. Mr Vance of North
Carolina is a brilliant debater, but not a skillful
leader. On the whole, the direction of

the hands of the Democrats is the problem
yet to be solved.?N. 1' Times.
Uxregenerate Utah.?A Salt Lake dispatch
of Friday says : It has come to light
that at a meeting of the higher priesthood after
the late conference President Taylor instructed
them that priests and bishops and
their councillors are not entitled to hold their
positions unless they qualify by becoming polygamists.
There are a few such officers who
are monogamists. One has since resigned
rather than take another wife. His resignation
was accepted. Others are in a quandary
as to what to do about it. One has been appointed
president of the seventies on condition
that he take another wife. One very
young and new made apostle, it is understood,
has complied with the condition of holding his
office. This is the logic of the position taken
by the church. It must stand by its religion,
law or no law. It shows that until the government
proves to be stronger than the Mormon
Church in Utah polygamy will not be
suppressed, but rather st imulated in its growt h
and expansion. There is no doubt about the
truth of this.

(JREAT SALVATION.
i The estimate which men put upon blessings |
is often very incorrect. Nothing is hazarded i
j by saying that inen universally underrate all j
1 God's favors. Especially do most men place J
| an under value upon gospel blessings. How-j
j ever much we may owe to God, as a God of !
! creation and providence, we, owe inestimably j
more to him as a God of salvation. On ac- j
count of the blessings which God, in and j
through Jesus Christ, bestows upon all men, j
our hearts should be tilled with gratitude and '
j our mouths with praise; but instead of this,
our hearts are full of stolid indifference and
our mouths with complainings. Of men, universally,
it may be truthfully said that they
are more stupid than the ox or the ass. The
former of these proverbially stupid brutes
i knows its owner, and the latter its master's
crib ; but men neither know llim from whom
j they derive all good, nor do they place a propter
estimate upon the gifts he bestows upon
them.
The salvation of lost human beings may be
regarded a great salvation, for very many rea-!
sons. AYe may be assisted in forming our estimate
of the greatness of such salvation, by j
contrasting it with the loss sustained by not |
being saved. If we desire to place a proper;
value upon health, we have only to contrast it j
with sickness. All the blessings which God bestows
upon us are positive. The same is true
in respect to afflictions. Health is not simply
the absence of sickness. It is this and some- j
thing far greater. It is actual enjoyment?
positive good. The same is true with respect
to sickness. It. is not simply the absence of j
health. It is this and something far worse. I
It is actual pain?positive suffering.
To be lost in the sense in which that expression
is used in the Scriptures, is not simply
not to be saved. It is this, and something far
more to be dreaded. To be lost is not simply
fn lie H<mriv<vl nf oil (rani 1 Till*! is Tin iflsilT
niiicant calamity, but to be lost is a far great- j
er. 11 is to be made positively miserable, both
in soul and body.
The salvation which is offered freely, fully
and in good faith, in the gospel, is a great salvation
on account of what it actually cost.
This is a mode of estimating its value, which
every one can understand. Every one knows
that articles of merchandise are estimated by
what they cost. To ask what an article cost
or what was paid for it, is the direct mode of
ascertaining the value which is placed upon
that article." In the same way are we able to
learn the value of that salvation which is offered
to us in the gospel. Do we desire to
know its intrinsic value, we have only to ask
what did it cost, or what was paid for it.
The universal testimony of the Scriptures is
that our soul's salvation is so precious that no
created being is able to furnish the ransom
price. Salvation can not be purchased with
gold or silver, with houses and land, nor with
all created things. The price which infinite
wisdom placed upon it was the life of the Son
of God. So far as we know, God never did
anything greater than when he furnished the
ransom price of our salvation.
To create all worlds cost him only a word,
lie gave the command and all things sprung
into existence, but to save souls, the Son of
God died. God, the Father, placed upon God,
the Son, the iniquity of us all. The salvation
offered to us in the gospel is a great salvation,
because of the great number who are benefitted
by it. There is a sense in which it may be
said that all men everywhere, and under all
circumstances, are benefitted by the work of
! Jesus Christ. No man on earth, can truthI
fully say that the gospel bestows upon hirn no
j blessings, neither can any one of Adam's race,
| who is now, or may hereafter be confined in
that fearful place where God has forgotten to
be gracious, say, ".Jesus Christ never aid anything
for me.11 The effects of the obedience
and death of Jesus Christ are universal. They
! extend to everything connected with this
j world. The beasts of the field, the fowls of
| the air and the fish of the sea, all experience
! some of the blessed effects of the redemption
i work of Jesus Christ. Every sentient creature
on earth has, in some way, been benefitted
by what Jesus Christ did and suffered.
Not only so, but the earth itself has felt the
rede ling power of the Lamb of God.
On account of these general benefits the
salvation which is offered to us in the gospel
i is a great salvation ; when, however, we conI
sider its particular benefits, its greatness apI
pears most manifest.
From the Scriptures, we learn that thenum'
ber of those who will ultimately be saved is so
great that 110 man can number them. These
will reap not only general and temporary benefits,
but particular and eternal blessings. The
character of the blessings bestowed upon the
redeemed is such that 110 finite mind is capable
of comprehending them, much less are there
words in any language capable of describing
them. Here in this world of sin and sorrow,
1 God is to them a sun and shield, and whatever
' may be their surroundings, God promises that
his grace shall be sufficient for them. "When
j Jesus appears the second time, without sin
unto salvation, they shall appear in his likeness,
and be, by the triune God, crowned with
glory. It is a great salvation, because it shields
: us from God's avenging wrath and restores us
to his favor, which is better than life.
The Apostle Paul tells us it is a great salvafimi
if. wjis rmtrdttimprl bv flip T.rirrl

I himself, and confirmed to lis by them that
heard him. Previous to the incarnation of the
Saviour, God sent prophets, and priests, and
j angels to announce the glad tidings, that help
i had been laid upon one who was mighty to save,
and that in the fullness of time, the redeeuier
j would come. This glad news was proclaimed
' in the garden of Paradise, by the Saviour him|
self, immediately after sin entered our world.
| The Apostle reasons thus. An important
j message demands an important messenger,
and as the message increases in greatness so
must the messenger increase in dignity and
worth. Reversing the process, the reasoning
leads to the conclusion that the character of
, the messenger indicates the importance of the
message. Prophets and priests were greater
than ordinary men, therefore, the message
brought by prophets and priests was greater
than that brought by ordinary men. Angels
are greater than prophets and priests, there- ;
fore, the message brought by angels was great- j
er than that brought by prophets and priests, j
Jesus Christ is greater than angels, therefore, i
the message brought by Jesus Christ is greater j
than that brought by angels. The salvation '
offered in the gospel was proclaimed, under !
Old Testament dispensation, by prophets, by j
priests and by angels. The dignity of these i
messengers showed the importance which (rod
attached to the message. In the fullness of :
time, Jesus Christ, the incarnate God, was ]
sent into the.world to make the same procla-,
ination. The conclusion is that since salva- j1

nun, ini UU^II (iCDilo IICI>o |*iuviatLit- "
ed by prophets, by priests, by angels and by I
Jesus Christ himself, it must be a great salva- j
tion. i t
In view of the greatness of this salvation, f
and also the mode in which it has been re- *
vealed to us, we may properly ask "IIow shall {
we escape if we neglect this salvation ?M If
he who does not sow cannot reap, would it be !
safe to conclude that those who neglect the . salvation
which Cod has so graciously provi-'
ded, and so freely oilers to all, can escape the 1
righteous indignation of Almighty God ? If J
it was a great sin in our first parents to eat the ?
forbidden fruit, is it not a far greater sin to f
neglect the salvation which is otlered in the
gospel ?
