Chll dren—little boys and g rin—are some times admitted to tlie floor in charge of a mem. r. Mr. Hatch’s visitor was admitted «.s a little girl. Before bring ing his visitor in he went to Speaker Carlisle, and being rather serupulous himself about such matters, asked the speaker what was the maximum limit of age at which little boys and girls could be admitted.

W. of Greenville and D. S. He’ Aiken are Most prominent. 1 For the office of Attorney-General the most prominent candidates are Hon. Charles Richardson Miles, the present incumbent, and Col. J. H. Earle of Suuter, a lawyer of high char icter and considerable reputation. The great ability with which Col. Miles has represented the State in the important ca«es before the sumpreme Court of the United States, by' the fortunate decision of which the tax payer of the State have been saved a million and a half dollars, has given him a claim on the esteem and confi dence of the people which nothing but tho fixed resolve for a new deal can defeat. For Adjutant and Inspector General Gen. A. M. Mauigalt and Capt. M. Tj. Bonham Jr., are leading candi dates. If Coi. Coward should run for Congress against Hon. J. j. Hemphill the race for Supei intendant of Edu cation will lie between Col. F. W. Me Master of Richland, Charles Petty of Spartanburg, and J. G. Clinkscales of Anderson. Three gentlemen, CaptW. E Stoney' for Comptroller General, Hon. \V. Z. Leitnerof Ken-haw for Secretary of Stale, Col. Richard Singleton of Rich iatid for State Treasurer, are not like ly' to have any opposition. Of course these are mere indications and subject to change or changes. * Ho Wtts Only a Jew. Polr,ielto Pont.

Thanks.” A small lot of new potatoes will call out the following: “Undo Abner Stubbleplow remembered ye editor just as we go to press with a most luscious-looking mess of new potatoes. We and our family expect to revel in the fruit during the coming week. He informs us that the bugs are doing great damage to the vines of many of his neighbors. Undo, you struck the printers in the right spot; may your shadow never grow less.” When a box of cigars fs left, this Is the formula: “The sanctum of The Bell was invaded lost Tuesday by the genial pres ence of Tom Liverpills, the handsome young proprietor of the Red Front Pioneer drug store, who placed ou tap a full box of choice Habanas. Hero’s to you, Torn! Our many readers will remember that he has just got in a full new line of paints, oils, axle grease, condition powders, per- fumerp, putty, and other drugs and toilet articles.” Green com uill produce the following editorial effect: “Ye scribe’s family has been enjoying another luxury for the last four days, Mrs. Deacon Churchdebt hav ing presented our wife with a good dozen of roasting ears. Such favors as this ore fully appreciated by yours truly, as well as by his wife and family. May Mrs. C. meet her reward is our earnest wish.*’ WHEN THE EMOTIONS SURGE. A bouquet will bo acknowledged like this: “Yesterday afternoon, ns ye pencil- pusher was busy with an unexpected rush of job work, who should come in but Miss Birdio Pistolpractice, the charming daughter of our worthy fellow-citizen, Col. Pistolpractice. She presented us with a beautiful bouquet of wildflowers which she had picked with her own fair hands. Among the varieties we noticed firewced, dandelion, buckwheat, redtop, tansy, and sunflowers. It shall remain many days to beautify our sanctum. Our wife is also pleased with it.” The giver of a spare rib may expect this: “Our genial and justly popular neighbor, Maj. Porcine, having frequently noticed the hungry look on tho printer’s face, took occasion early the other morn ing to leave a mammoth spare rib at our humble abode, taken from one of his fa mous drove of Southdown porkers. We and our family have accordingly been feasting on fresh meat. By the way, we, understand that the ma jor will accept the nomination foi* tho legislature if it is tendered him. He is tho man for the place.” A turkey will inspire this: “While sit ting in our sanctum sactorum about !i o’clock Thursday morning reciiuing our hehd in our hands, we were greatly sur prised as well as pleased at having Col. McTougb walk in with a mysterious air and a bundle under l.is arm.

There never was a class of vessels eo un seaworthy, for tho reason that their dis placement and buoyancy were so very nearly the same. They could not live in a heavy sea. About ten years ago I shipped on one of them as engineer. It was at New Orleans, and the high wages paid prompted me to accept the place. Tuere were a lot of monitors there at that time to bo taken around, up the coast, on a short seaJPoyage. The engines of the one I shipped upon were perfect beauties, about the handsomest I ever saw, and I spent four days getting them in condition. Just before we wore to leave I went up into the city and fell in with gn old man-of-war’s man, whom I told about my job. “Don’t go,” he said, those cheese boxes on rafts are infernal death traps.” Then he went on to toil me of the defects in their construction and the danger from heavy seas. Tho talk made such an impression upon me that I never went back, not even for my hammock aud dunnage. It happened that the monitors made the trip all right, but they had several narrow squeaks of it. These ves sels, It should be borne in mind, were con sidered a great improvement over the original monitor, which was only floated at all by the greatest sort of a scratch.— L. W. Harper in Globe-Democrat. Praise of the Confederate Troops. Mr. Davis said that they had no equals. He has seen, he said, the heavy, thor oughly Jiilled Germans, whose battalions appeared to be irresistible, and the wiry troops of France, with their quick step and rapid evolutions; but neither had the elastic step and free, cheerful movements of the Confederate infantry. He had seen the hitter going into battle when they all knew that the odds were against them with a quick, swinging gate, each man’s face bearing an expression of self-reliance and determination, and he was firmly convinced that the world had ■ever seen better soldiers.—Savannah News.
