1IE>DPJCKS. He Does Not Refuse the Second Place? The Indiana Democracy. Later in the day I was permitted to talk with another genleman of similar politics, one of the chief spokes in the Democratic wheel. I met him occasion? ally on the cars, and he talks freely and apparently very frankly, but tlways on condition that his namo shall not be used. I am at liberty to say, however, that no roan in the Democratic party stands higher, or is better posted, nor is there one who better understands the motive which prompt men's actions. "Did the Governor consult you?" I asked, after speaking generally of the Worbis interview for a few moments. "No, sir; nor any one else that I am aware of. Had he done so, I hardly think he would have made the mistake he has." "But why do you regard it a mis? take? "Because it is fourteen months before the convention, and before that time public opinion may be formed and re? formed, and candidates made and un? made." "Then you regard his action proper enough, only he has spoken too soon ?" I suggested. "No, not that alone. He has certainly spcken too soon, but he had better not spoken at all. He is already misunder? stood. Besides, he is beginnin? to dis? cover how firm a hold Mr. Tilden has upon Indiana. Several papers which re? flect theseutiment of their localities have spoken so loudly, in fact, that his friends, notably Mr. Edgerton, of Fort Wayne, have lound it necessary to rally (he Dem? ocracy of the State to stand firm and de? mand that Mr. Hendricks shall have the first place." "But do you understand that he posi? tively refuses to accept the second place?" "No, sir, I do not. I do not know what he may have said in his letter to Senator McDonald, but he says no such thing in his interview. His language is, 'I do not feel under any obligations to a grin accept a second place upon the ticket. I was beaten in the last conven? tion, and I accepted my defeat and be? came a candidate for an office which I did not desire. I don't think that I am called upon to do this again.' There's no threat and no refusal in this." "Is there anything in it?" "I do not see that there is. If his par? ty should nominate him again for the second place, he could not refuse to ac? cept it* "But can yon carry Indiana without Mr. Hendricks on the ticket?" "About as easily as with him. Mr. Hendricks is very popular, and deserv? edly so; but it was the Democratic party that carried Indiana in 1876, and it will be the Democratic party in 18150. Suc? cess depends upon the nomination of no man." "But Mr. Tilden aided the Democrat? ic party a good deal in 1876." "Undoubtedly. But we are on top in this State, and we shall remain so for Borne years to come, at any rate." 1.Farmer's Reason. Tbey had forgotten politics and were on home matters. One farmer was ex? plaining to the other the high way to better times. He said when you bring your cotton to the market let it call for the money. If the prices don't suit you, store it, until you are willing to sell. - If it calls for the money, you have no credit account to pay. And when you sell your cotton, having paid your mer? chant cash for his goods, you will pocket that profit which the merchant gets when you buy on credit. ? ... He continued: Farmers want money to buy something to eat and wijar. He said he raised meatj Jbeef/J mutton, pork and bacon at heme. Ha'raised wheat and cordland a power of vegetables and esculents at the same place. This farmer has something to eat. The old lady and the girls thought year before last that .he, the old man, would, have to buy some cloth on credit. They rigged up the eld spinning wheels and the war time loom and made that cloth. This kept him from buying on credit, and left him with money in his pocket The next year he used it close? ly, and bought entirely for cash. At the end of last year he had eight bales of cotton. It brought him four hundred and three dollars. One hundred and twenty-six dollars of that money paid cash all his accounts this year and pur? chased him some valuable farming im? plements.. He has now two hundred and seventy-seven dollars at. interest. He has also - ten bales of cotton made this Jear, which he says he will sell whenever o pleases. r .-. He has a crib full of corn,' has wheat, bats, peas, potatoes in abundance, and a fine lot of nogs and cattle, all raised at home. He says he feels independent, and wants his farming brethren to know the secret of his independence. Make all at home for one year. He says no man need nay he cannot do so. The war proved to the contrary. Let ali the cotton made call for cash, and not go to paying high credit accounts. This is the way a sensible old farmer views the situation. Reader, do you think be is right or wrong ??Sparta {La.) JTimes. Ax Anecdote of Qcm^yica'pRiA.? The Queen was"h?t twenty yearis' of age when she ascended'the throne. Coming into possession, of-power-with a heart fresh, tender and. pure, and with ail her instincts inclined to mercy, we may be sure that she found many things that ried her strength of resolution to the ut? most. *Oh a bright, beautiful morning, the young Queen was waited upon at her palace, at Windsor, by the Duke of Wel? lington. He bad brought from. London various papers requiring her signature to make them operative. One ot them was a sentence or court martial pronounced against a soldier of the line; tl at sen? tence that be be shot dead. The Queen looked upon the paper, and then looked upon the wondrous beauties that nature had spread to her view. "What has this man done?" she asked.. .The Duke: looked at the paper, and replied*. ' "Ah! my royal mistress, that man, I fear, is incorrigible. He has deserted three times." "And can yotf not say anything in bis behalf, my Lord?" Wellington shook his head. "Oh, think again, I pray you!" Seeing that her Majesty was so deeply moved, and feeling sure she would not have the man shot in any event, be finally confessed that the man was brave and gallant and really a good soldier. "But," he added, "think of the influence." "Influence!" the Queen cried, her eyes flashing and her bosom heaving with strong emotion. "Let it be ours to yield influence. I will try mercy in this man's case, and I charge yoti, your Grace, to let me know the re? sult. A good-soldier, you 6aid. Oh, I thank you-for tint. -An?yotfmay tell him that your good word saved him." Then she took the paper and wrote with', a bold, firm hand, across the dark page, the bright, saving word?"Pardoned." The Duke was fond of telling the story, and he was willing also to confess that the giving of that paper to the pardoned soldier gave him far more joy than he could have experienced from the taking of a city.?London Journal. s_ _??

Give them Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup, which in? nocent remedy is warranted not to con? tain opiates. ? Within the past year eight Mormon ?iris have married colored men in Salt ake. Joe Brown and Bob Toombs. "How is it, Judge, that Joe Brown continues to be a notoriety, and to some extent a political quantity in Georgia, if be was not a public speaker nor a man of much following ?" "He has always had an influence with poor people, of whom he claims to be one. I think his start in life was about $12,000 that he got with his wife. Brown was more capable of doing a very shrewd thing than any man in Georgia. I give you an instance. Before the war be was considered poor. After the reconstruc? tion he was regarded as a rich man, and bis neighbors demanded an investigation into his conduct and property. He was invited to name one of three persons to go on a committee to examine him. To my surprise, he telegraphed me to be his member. He was cited before the com? mittee and positively refused to take au oath. Said he, 'I don't recognize the right of the Legislature to examine me, under oath, for acts which 1 performed in the ordinary course of my office and not under oath.' This led to the greatest excitement all through Georgia, and was regarded as a confession that be had been dishonest. The matter was debated, and his enemies greatly rejoiced at the lapse of time, and it was finally settled that be could make his statement without swear? ing. He then walked before the com? mittee and said : "Now, gentlemen, as I have established my rights, I insist that I be sworn and examined ; not only as to my official acts, but my private life.' The revulsion was immediate all over the State. It was 3rown's design to make people think the very worst, and then to stagger the public judgment and produce a revulsion. Brown, however, wjis a secessionist among the earliest. He be? longed to what was called the 'Southern Rignts party.' Some of his correspon? dence with Jeff. Davis was very shrewd, particularly about.the time when Sher? man . had begun his march through Georgia, and Brown asked that the Geor? gia troops be sent back from the army of the P?tomac, either to resist Sherman's advance or to move in his rear." At this point the Judge smiled again and saidV"One of the'very cases of Bob Toombs' wit came at that time in a pri? vate conversation with me. Mr. Davis had started Hood off to the North to in? vade Tennessee and produce a diversion. One of the oratorical addresses that ac? companied Hood's march North said that his soldiery would soon be enjoying them? selves in the green fields about Nashville. I asked Toombs what he thought of that address of Davis, and he said it reminded him of the death of Fa!staff. His nose was as sharp as a pen, and be babbled of green fields." ?f'.What kind of a man is Toombs?" "Toombs has a reckless way of talking, by which many people judge him. In reality he is a most conservative man. When they were deliberating at Mont? gomery, Alabama, about firing at Fort Suniter, he was the only man to. oppose it. and said: The first gun-fired on that fort would make the greatest revolution the"world had e%'er seen?" If he was in the Senate to-day, he would be prudent. In the management of his worldly affairs and law business, his success demon? strates this quality of conservatism. He inherited a great deal of money, but he is still rich and has a splendid law prac? tice. He is as kind-hearted as a child. You observed that when he visited Grant, and understood him in person, he became his warm friend."?Gath's interview with Judge Lochranc. The Last Arrow. During the expedition of the French agdnsVibe~coufederate five nations in' Isew York, in 1696. the following inci? dent occurred. Kiodago, a Mohawk chief, had; for his wife a beautiful half breed girl whose father was said to be no less a Eersonage than the governor-general of few France, the veteran Count de Fron tenac. A small force of French muske? teers and pikemen surprised the sum? mer camp of Kiodago's band at what is now called Trenton Falls, just before daylight, when, not dreaming of an at? tack, they were wrapped in slumber. Hand grenades set -heir logs on fire, and a murderous assault was made upon the half awakened natives. Some perished in the. flames; some were cut down in the combat, and others still, among whom was Kiodago and his wife, escaped to.the hills. A small party marking the Course" pursued by Kiodago,'followed. The valiant chief had lost both his toma? hawk and war club in the strife, but he still carried his trusty bow, and three arrows. The warrior determined, that a life . must tell for the loss of each arrow. Two arrows! were sent whistling from the bow, carrying de? struction with them; but just as he was drawing the bow for the last time a shot from a musket carried away bis thumb. The warrior betook himself to flight, now bounding over the rugged crags, now crossing and recrossing the moun? tain torrent to mislead his pursuers, and finally rejoined his wife at the entrance of a cavern, where she had sunk down in utter exhaustion, pressing her babe to her bosom. Soon, however, voices were heard, and looking down they discovered a party led by a renejrrade scout pressing forward in the direction of their rocky fastness. The chief grasped his remain? ing arrow with his bleeding fingers, and aimed at the leading one of the pursuing party. -It struck the steel cuirass of the officer, and glanced off harmlessly, but transfixed the heart of the scoul, who in his dying fall grasped the sword chain of the chevalier, and the two went down tth*gWi;togetherr' The third man aban? doned the pursuit. Kiodago aiid his beautinil Tvrter escaped, and many of their descendants are still living to tell the tateof this' last arrow. ? In 1858 Chester County, S. C, con? tained only eight hundred and forty-four farms, and fifteen hundred and forty-one dwellings. The number of inhabitants of all conditions were eighteen thousand and forty-eight, as follows: White, 8,000; free-colored, 146; slaves, 9,857. Com parePthat with the Chester of to-day and you will find a vast difference. We have a county vastly more important as to ag? riculture; and we are put down in the calendar of counties as one of the most progressive and thrifty in the State.? State Buitefin. ? The citizens of the back counties in Kentucky arc enterprising. In Leslie county the following is reported to have occurred: Late in the afternoon one of the jurymen placed himself in the court house door, and elevating his voice, cried ouV'O, yes, O, yes, gentlemen, the court arc adjourned until inorniu', the Judge are drunk, and tlie-County Attorney arc in no better fix." A British Disease. The most marked peculiarity that will impress the American traveler when he walks the streets of London for the first time, is the great number of excessively fat people whom be-everywhere meets. He at first supposes these persons to be? long to the-*jobiIity, on the same prin? ciple that he would pronounce them al? dermen or bankers if seen in Boston or New York;: fU brief,'he labors under the popular though mistaken impression, that obesity is invariably the combined result of laziness and high living; while in reality it is a'constitutional disease. Until very recently there was no known remedy for this uncomfortable disease, and its victims were obliged to submit to the vexation and not infrequent mortifi? cation that it occasions. Allan's Anti Fat is the only remedy for this disease, and removes the abnormal c> ndition by purely natural means. A>k your drug? gist for it. ?
