The Cleveland Scandal. The facility with which campaign slanders are concocted is one of the sad? dest and most painful features cf Ameri? can political life. As. soon as a man reaches any position of prominence he becomes at once a target for the thousand arrows of calumny, and he is happy, in? deed, if the flying darts do not inflict wounds that will forever after rankle and that will poison the springs of happiness during the whole period of natural life; Graver Cleveland, the Democratic can? didate for the exalted office of President of the United States, has not escaped the common lot of public men, and to day there is going the rounds of the lower class of Republican journals a shameful story in regard to his private life and moral character. The story is that he seduced, under promise of marriage, one Maria Halpic, a saleswoman in a Buffalo dry goods house; that he deserted this woman and her offspring, and that Anally, wearied with her-importunities, he had her seized under circumstances of great brutality and conveyed to a private asylum, and that after her release from confinement he compromised with her family by the payment of $500, and thus the matter was dropped. As if the Hatpin story, with all the devilish ingenuity of its concoction, with so many apparently corroborating cir? cumstances, was not bad enough, the authors of this vile story add to it the assertion that Cleveland bad been often found by the police of Buffalo in a beast? ly drunken coudition; that he wa? guilty of habitual immoralities with women, and that he consorted with blackguards and loose women, drinking and fighting in their company. If it could be believed for one moment that these charges were founded upon the truth, then it would be felt that Grover Cleveland was indeed a moral leper, totally unworthy of the support of Christians, or of any people with any pretensions to decency, and the. demand for hia retirement from the ticket would come in thunder tones from the .Demo? cracy of the land- We could not afford to jeopardize the just and righteous cause of the people by countenancing the can? didature of any such man. But the charge is a lie on its face. Is it conceivable that these things could have happened in the city of Buffalo, and have been matters of common report, and that then the citizens of that place, without distinction of party?Democrats, Republicans and Independents, church going and non-church-going people? should have united together as one man and bestowed the Mayoralty of the. city upon the low blackguard that the actor in such scenes as Cleveland is described as figuring in must have necessarily, been? The supposition is a monstrous absurdity and an insult to the intelligence of the American people. If these accu? sations are true, then the morality, of Buffalo must indeed have been at a low . ebb, and the citizens of that place, tak? ing them collectively, worse even than the man" on- whom their highest civic honor was bestowed. Just about the time that Grover Cleve land, according to this dirty campaign I lie, was wallowing in filth and iniquity,! we find him submitting to the City Coun? cil of Buffalo the following letter in re? gard to the perils of children and espe? cially of young girls on the streets at a late-hour of the night: Buffalo, June 5, 1882. My attention has been called, by a committee from the Society for the Pre? vention of Cruelty to Children, to the number of small boys and girls found upon the streets in the night I have reson to believe that many of these children are allowed, and some are obliged, by their parents to thus remain in the streets for the ostensible purpose of earning money by selling newspapers or blacking.boots. In truth, however, after a certain hour in the evening, the - most, if not all the money they receive,, they obtain by begging or by false pre* tenses. In the meantime they are subject ed" to the' worst influences, leading direct? ly to proflgacy, vagrancy and crime. .The importance of caring for children who are uncared for by their natural guardians, or who are unmindful of pa? rental lestraint, must be apparent to all. In the future, for good or evil, their in? fluence will be felt in the community; and certainly the attempt to prevent their swelling the criminal class is worth an effort. Itseeins tome that no pretext should be permitted to excuse allowing young Eirls to be on the streets at improper ours, since the result mutt necessarily be their destruction. The disposition of the boy (child though he be) to aid in his own support or that of others in an honest, decent way, ought not to be discouraged. But this does not call for his being in the street at late boon, to. bis infinite damage morally, mentally and physically, and to the danger of society. I respectfully suggest that this subject . be referred to the Committe on Ordinan? ces and the attorney, and that a commit? tee from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children be invited to co? operate with them in an effort to frame an ordinance which will remedy the evil herein considered. Geover Cleveland, Mayor. This letter indicates a solicitude in re? gard to.female virtue not at all in keep? ing with the vicious character that has .been given to Grover Creveland by the Republican journals that repeat the slan? ders against his good name, and this, taken into connection with thousands of incidents in the career of the man, give the lie to the damaging reports against him. Considering the phenomenal populari? ty of Cleveland and the handsome sup? port that bis own people have given him, it might hardly seem necessary for any Democratic journal to take the trouble of defending him; no defense would seem necessary; but lest it should be said that the story is being covered up and that Democratic papers are afrai3 to publish it, we have given our readers the sub? stance of it. It is a pitiful matter, and one that shows how much of depravity goes in with politics and how unscrupu? lous are those who will go any lengths for party purposes.?Columbia Register. Who Can Tell % Some years ago there was a young physician in Texas who was loved by all on account of bis gentle, loving disposi? tion. Among bis more humble but not less devoted admirers was a mocking bird that had been born and raised in his garden. The bird took the greatest fancy to him, and when be returned home in the evening would hop round bis front steps and then fly to a tree near-by and sing for hours at a time. The bird ap? peared to be in an ecstacy of delight whenever the doctor was at home. Fi? nally the yellow fever broke out here, and among others, the doctor was stricken down. He lingered for long days and then died. On the night before hia e'eath the watchers by bis bedside had their attention attracted by the mournful, sob? bing notes that the "doctor's bird" (as they called it) uttered throughout the night. The next day the doctor died, and that night the bird was silent. Af? ter the funeral the family opened the room to air it, and when the bed was drawn aside the first thing seen was the mocking bird lying at the bead of the bed, dead. How it got there no one knew, but tbere it was, dead, as though it could uot survive the one it loved so well. ? A Baltimore swell went to a fancy dress ball as a donkey, and his friends say it is the first time he ever failed to make an ass of himself. Tact, One may have all the virtues, and pos? sess all the endowments which comes from the benign accidents of wealth* and lineage, and yet want the one thing which will make bis life happy and successful. One of the.curious things about such a bereavement is, that the person whom Nature Has so impoverished hardly ever, and perhaps never, knows exactly "what it is"?as that renowned ethical philoso? pher, Josh Billings, would put it?"that ails him." He is a man of business, we will suppose, and is strictly truthful and upright; be fulfills all bis engagements to the very letter; be is punctual, and not over-exacting; but be does not have the art to please. He lacks, in short, tact. The stranger who comes to trade with him, if he is a merchant, may like the quality of his goods, and may not dislike; his prices; but the situation, neverthless, will become uncomfortable in due time; and before be knows the casual customer, whom a dealer with a little tack would have easily retained, goes across the street to fill bis subsequent order. We all know the preacher who lacks this lubricating quality, and who rants about matters that iritate persons rather than establish principles, and who very soon comes to grief in bis parish. He has been scattering dynamite in the most careless possible way, and wonders why anybody is hurt, and doesn't bear any? thing but the rebound from the explo? sion. . To the politician, tact means often a positive and indispensable capital in trade. It far supersedes talent when it Stands alone by itself. It is not proba? ble that there is a single human nature as is the. politician's. He must know everybody, and know their dispositions as well. And the very successful ones manage to do this, and to enter into the various interests which engage different men with an ease and alacrity that reach tbe very summit of art, while the absence of art is never doubted, or tbe skill of the thing is not expected. Tbe politician who has tact does not let it desert him tbe day after the election. The want of tact in a lawyer will often lose him his case, no matter bow well read be is in tbe law pertaining to it Before.a jury, tbe gifts of adroitly putting a thing so as to chime with tbe feelings and prejudices of twelve differ? ent men is all important. It gives to the lawyer who adds to respectable talents this power, consummate influence. Tact in studying tbe feelings and pe? culiarities of his patients is one of tbe prime requisites of a pbysican. He can? not successfully minister to their ailments unless be thoroughly understands their inmost mental peculiarities and succeeds in humoring them. He will know tbe English of placebo and tbe value of bread pills: and, in certain cases?in most I cases, in fact?be will keep the thought I of danger in abeyance. But after all, there is no place where tact is not needed. Its usefulness in tbe daily, general relations of life is para? mount. It carries for its possessor a fentle, unconscious persuasion with it. le will make his way without seeming to know how he has made it. We can remember one person after another who is afflicted with an almost ludicrous ab? sence of this quality, and who is perpet? ually in Mrs. Partington's dilemma? ! said she never opened her mouth with? out putting her foot in it. If some visi i tor arrives who has lately had a near rel? ieve hong, the object of the gallows will ' be at once introduced and expatiated upon with peculiar unction and persis? tence. The wrong topic is always in? troduced by the ill-arranged individuals, and is sure to be discussed in the most ill-timed and mal apropos way.?The Hour. Eubbed as Black as a Crow.. Some years ago, wben the terrible "Yellow Jack'' was in Savannah, a Judge of the Supreme Court of the State was holding session in an upper connty, but within twenty-four hours' run, by rail, of the infected city. Quite suddenly, late one afternoon, he was seized with a head? ache, pain in his back, limbs, etc. Hav? ing beard that those were tbe salutations which Yellow Jack extends to bis vic? tims when approaching tbem, the Judge, in great consternation, applied to a friend who was "posted" for advice. A hot mustard bath was ordered at once, and the Judge was soon.laving himself in the irritating fluid. Presently he felt better, and. finding a cake Of soap' in the bath-tub, be began to apply it quite freely upon his person. After some Sleasant exercise in this' way, he looked own for the first time on his body and limbs, and to his horror discovered that he was turning black. . His friend was hurriedly sent for, came in and declared that the symptoms were intensely ex? pressive of yellow fever. "But," said the Judge, "I feel no pain; I feel well." * "So much the worse; the absence of pain is a marked symptom." "Oh," groaned the Judge, "what shall I do?" "The only hope is in mustard; rub away," was all tbe advice bis friend could give. And he did rub, with a will. On ex? amination, he was as black as a crow, and the "soap," which a careless servant had dropped into the tub, was discovered to be somebody's patent paste blacking. The Judge survived.?Son Francisco Ar? gonaut. ? Oft as the youth is bent the twig's inclined. ? Women now serve on the juries in Washington territory. ?

The plains of Texas cover an area of 152,000,000 acres, on which feed 3,800,000 head of cattle. ? It is not much of a compliment, after all, to say that a man is sound. Some men are nothing but sound. ? Girls, never allow even a lover to have his arms around you. The papers daily show that thousands of our bright? est young men are going to waist. ?

Deterioration : Jones says that he used to be proficient in half a dozen languages, but since he was married he is not even master of his own tongue. ? Young married people arc always surprised when they discover that the honeymoon is not entirely composed of honey. Even the first year of married life is not always the happiest, though it ought always to be very happy. Living together happily is an art which the most affectionate couple cannot ordinari? ly learn in a year. Each has to make some unpleasant discoveries and to over? come some fixed inclinations. True hap Einess begins when these discoveries ave been made, and each is thoroughly resolved to make the other as happy as possible for all time. ?* TUTT'S PILLS TORPID BOWELS, DISORDERED LIVER, and MALARIA. ?

Tan Winkle King Cotton Press Has long been before the public, and is too well known to need any further description. Its chief points of merits are: It takes very little room, is easily handled, and takes so little power; can be used on all kindsof powers?horse, water or steam. Ginning and packing can all go on at the same time, without interfering with the Gin. A two inch belt will pack a 500 lb. bale of cotton. It saves its cost the first season in labor. Read the following Testimonial: Ajcdeb8on, S. C?Mr. John E. Peoples?Sir: The Steam Power Van Winkle Cotton Press bought from you last Fall has given entire satisfaction. I packed bales of cotton weighing 600 to 725 lbs. in five minutes with all ease, using a 4-inch belt and 25 lbs. steam, There did not seem any more strain on the Press than with a 450 lb. bale. For dura? bility, strength, lightness of power, small quantity of steam required, economy of space, I deem it the King of all Cotton Presses; especially so as the low i price at whicli it can be bought for puts it within reach of every man running a steam Gin. In fact I would not be without it for twice its cost. I would advise all my friends to buy one of Van Winkle's Steam Power Cotton Presses, as you will save its cost in labor in one year. M. A. COBB.

Feb 14, 1 >83 31 Oit of i Jaws of Deal The gentleman who outlines his case below is a man considerably advanced in life, and is noted for his sterling integrity. His Postoliice is Yalea ville, Upson County, Ga. The following is Mr. John Pearson's Statement : In the Spring of 1882 I was attacked with a very bad cough, which continued to grow worse until fall, when I got so weak that I could not get about. I tried a great many kinds of medicine but continued to grow worse. I was notified that I had consumption and would probably die. Dr. Holloway finally told mo to try Brewer's Lung Re? storer. They sent to Ward's Store and got a bottle and I commenced taking it right away. After tak? ing two or three doses, I began to improve, and by the time I had used up ono bottle I was able to get on my feet again. I am now in excellent bealthi I am confident that the Lung Restorer saved mf life and my neighbors are of the same opinion. It is the best Lung Remedy ever made in my opin? ion. Dr. II. promised me that he would write to the manfacturers and tell them of the wonderful cure it made in my case. Statement of Mr. Benj. H. Hearndon: Early in November, 1881, while sewing on the machine, my wife was taken with a severe pain in her side, which was soon followed by hemorrhages from her lungs and a severe cough. Fever com? menced, she could neither eat or sleep, and in a few weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton. The attending physician told rac that he thought one of her lungs was entirely gone. She could not retain the mosi delicate nourishment on her stom* ach. I then agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family physician, to call Dr. Holloway in consultation. They i?.ade a final examination of the patient and pronounced the case hopeless. Dr. Holloway then suggested the Brewer's Lung Restorer as a last icsort. I sent for a bottle and gave her a dose. I found that she could retain it on her stomach, and after about the third dose, I began to notice some improvement in her condition. I continued the medicine regularly, and by the time she had taken two bottles, she was able to walk about the house. She is now in better health than she has enjoyed for several years. I believe the Lung Restorer saved her life. We have a family of six children, some of them grown." Mr. Hearndon's PostofBcc is Yatesville, Upson County, Ga. He is a thoroughly reliable man in every particular. Lung Restorer for sale by W?hlte & W?hlte, Druggists, Anderson, S. C.

Your most valuable medicine (Swift's Specific) has done me so much good that I feel like saving this for the benefit of those who suffer like I did. I was poisoned by poison oak, and saw not a well day for six years, until I used Swift's Specific. In the six years I used almost every kind of medi? cine, but none had the desired effect. After using six bottles of Swift's Specific I am restored to perfect health?with not a sign of that awful poison left I Yours truly, DAVID NESBITT. POISOX OAK I had for thirty-eight years suffered every spring and summer with Poison Oak, which 1 contracted in bathing when a boy. I tried everything for it, including many physicians, but without any benefit. I took six bottles of Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) four years ago, and it cured me sound and well. Three summers have passed, and I have had no return of it. , Joseph Beasley, Columbus, Ga. _ . Remarkable Results. I have had remarkable success with Swift's Specific; have cured several cases permanently in a very short time. One case which I am now treating was given up to die, and after using three bottles is so far recovered that I think one more bottle will cure her. The most remarkable case of all was a lady with medulary cancer of the womb, for whoru I had no hope whatever. After using one bottle I am satisfied she will soon he cured. J. WYLIE QUILLIAN, M.
