ITo Politics In the Alliance, At a regular meeting of Carolina Alli? ance No. IS, held on the 3rd inst., the S^following preambles and resolutions were [.adopted without a dissenting vote: . 1. Whereas, there was a political con .vention held in Columbia on the 27th of E 'March, 189a, under a call of "The Par L mere'-Association,'' which is a separate organization from the Farmers' Alliance, .said .Convention having nominated a candidate for Governor of the State : 2. Whereas, some of the subordinate Alliances in the State have passed reso? lutions endorsing the action of the said Convention held in Columbia, also their ^ nominee for Governor. 3. Whereas, Article 1 of our declara? tion of oar intentions says: "To labor I for the education of the agricultural classes in the science of economical gov? ernment in a strictly non-partisan spirit, x- 4.

The Colored Brother North and South., ; lThera is considerable trouble between the North and South relative to the treatment of the negroes down in 'Dixie,'" said ex-Congressman Tom g-^Dchiltree last night at the Hoffman House; "and that reminds me of one of our Texas darkies named Sam, whom I ; used tovhaye in my service. Sam could j? read_, and in the newspapers he had seen g so much of the love the people of the ?North bear for the colored man that he Jiv concluded the North was the place for l;j him.' Sd to Iowa he went, where he was I^pretty, well treated. The paople there I: called him 'Mr.' and shook handB with ?him, and talked politics with him as if h"hi3 were an equal, but nobody seemed J-^anxious to have Sam work for him. S^^After a awhile all of his money was I' gone, ^and he then concluded the best thing for him to do was to go back to ~ Texas; so he started on foot, hoping to i ' pick up enough food on his way to keep " him gciDg. The first place he reached irwas;.a farmhouse where a man from New -'York lived. The farmer was very po " lite, but when food was mentioned, said V times were hard and he didn't believe he ?iad anything to spare. He tried several j 7 other farmhouses, but always with the 5": same result?everybody was polite, but ^nolk)dy gave him any food. For two or ^'.ihree' days be didn't haVe anything to !?eat, "until finally he came to a place ;; where -a man was out in the front yard mowing grass. To him he told the whole ^ story of leaving Texas, of his bad luck in ?p?wa/and of his desire to get back to IpGal'veston, and of his great hunger. ...Before; he had concluded his story, the ftt-farmer interrupted him: "You black p idiot 1" he exciaimed. "Why didn't you I have Bense enough to stay in Texas?" |_J3am'B face brightened instantly. He almost fell on his knees for joy, and he I cried out: 'Boss, you dunno how glad I T is to see yon. When did-you leave de fe^Sduf yourself ? Oh, boss, but I is glad to lr --git 'mong friends agin' 'Go in the house J. there, you black fool an' git some chuck. ^.'Perhaps you will know enough another a time to stay where you belong.' "?New ?Yorh Sun. y ? Wouflerful Facts About Pensions. The increase of pension expenditures in recent years is something wonderful. The proper maximum pension expendi? ture on account of the civil war?on the Abasia of real disability incurred in mili jpv .tary service?was reached in 1874, when the outgo for pensions was ?30,593,749. It decreased from that year till 1878, . when it was $26,844,415. The pension ?attorney, however, about that time cap stored the demagogue, with the resnlt l^ihat new legislation was devised to show ei-.the public money upon persons not ^previously deemed worthy of pensions. Their objects have been greatly favored by the protectionists, whose interest it is to keep tariff taxes at the hightest notch. ."' The consequence is seen iu a pension ex? penditure in 1889 of $95,624,779. In the i present fiscal year the expenditure is to fm -from. $105,000,000 to $125,000,000. ^Text-year, if the service pension bill ? j::st passed by the House becomes a law, t^the annual expenditure will be from |2?150,000,000 to $160,000,000. If the "prisoners' bill" also becomes a law a goodly number of millions will be added . to this figure. The amount disbursed on lM account of pensions since 1861 has been |A$1,150,218,413, exclusive of the $600, ?|?O0O,000 given in bounties to volunteers, ft There is a curious relation between h the decrease of the interest on the public tdebt and the increase of pensions, which indicates a tendency of the war burden Jrv.to-Decome perpetual. On August 81, [,.1865, when the debt was largest, the ' principal of the debt was $2,381,530,194 iand. the interest charge $150,977,697. At present the interest bearing debt is about M $750,000,000, and the interest charge g'^ about $35,000,000. The saving iu interest from debt paid goes, it is evident, into pensions, so that there is to be no relish from war burdens. If any one cherish? es the belief that the now pension laws are of trifling importance for the reason that the large expenditure they author tis?J?. to last only a few years, he will r. perhaps change his mind when he learns from the report of the Commissioner of ,. I Pensions-that there are still 37 persons !' -drawing pensions on account of the Revolutionary War, which ended nearly 110 years ago, and that there are 11,593 pensioners of the war of 1812. If our past existence teaches anything, we shall be paying millions for pensions in far off I 1975. There is something very magni ?? ficent, doubtless, in the amount we are giving the survivors of the 2,500,000 .^patriots who, after four years of desper? ate fighting, overcame the 600,000 Con? federates. This bounteous streams of Federal gratuity brings cheer and ease to countless happy homes. In 1888 the average value of each pension was 131.18?an amount of cash sufficient to ?: relieve the average recipient from the &heed of working for a living. All I through the North, West and Northwest --: this money comes in ?; bounteous and v gladdening stream, winning votes and ^-support for the party that opens the ^treasury gateB for its outflow. But are I the other homes mad a happy by it? Are the taxpayers of the country pros 3 < paring in spife'of the drain upon their ^resources caused by our pension gener? osity ? It is a matter worth considering. k There are signs that some of them are |r\-being ruined by it. Although the West -and Northwest receive the greater part ?-~?f the golden streams, it is among the farmers of those very sections of the country that the cry of distrees is loudest. -Baltimore /Sa?.

Lee, is a great favorite in the Bbest social circles of VfasbiDgton, John Allen's First Legal Victory "Private John Allen," of Missisippi, who became the wit of the house of rep? resentatives with the death of Sunset Cox, tells a good story on himself of how he came to be a profound lawyer. A party of members were telling yarns in the cloak room of the house yesterday, and when Allen's turn came he told this one: "I want to tell you of the greatest legal victory of my life," said Allen, as he lighted a cigar and propped nis feet against the wall in true Southern style. "It was down in Tupelo, during the try? ing period just after the war. I was at that time a practicing lawyer, that is I practiced whenever I had any cases to practice with. One day old 'Uncle' Pompey, one of the old negroes of the settlement, came into my office and said: "Mars John, I want you to cl'ar me. Pa gwine to be 'rested for stealin' of two hams out of the cross road store." "'Mars John, I just took 'em.' " 'Well Pompey/ I asked, 'Did you steal the hams ?' " 'Mars John, I just took 'em.' " 'Did any one see you ?' I asked. " 'Yas, Boss,' said the old negro, dis? consolately, 'two ole white bucbras.' " 'Well, Pompey, I replied, *I can't do anything for you under the circumstan? ces.' " 'Now, Mars John, here's ten dollars. Ijist wanl you to try.' "Well, I consented to try," said Allen. "The case was to be tried before an old magistrate named Johnson. He was to? tally uneducated, and was moreover a perfect dictator, and no negro ever came before him who was not fined the maxi? mum penalty and sent to the field to ex? piate the crime in the sweat of his brow. "The magistrate heard- the case. Every possible proof was brought to show that Pompey stole the bams. There could be no doubt of it from the testimony. I did not put a single ques? tion to any of the witnesses, but when the testimony was all in, I arose, and in my most dignified manner addressed the magistrate: " 'May it please your Honor, it would be useless for me to argue the position he holds, and before one who would adorn the superior if not the supreme court bench of this grand commonwealth. And I may say that those who know best say that yon would grace even the su Ereme court of the United States, the ighest tribunal in the land. It will be useless to dwell upon the testimony. You have heard it, and know the case as well as I do. However, it may not be out of order for me to call your Honor's attention to a short passage in the old English law, which clearly decides the case, and which, for the moment, your Honor may have forgotten.' "Then I fished down into my pocket and drew forth with a great flourish, an old copy of 'Julius Cse3ar.' I opened it with great dignity to the first page and read the line which is familliar to every school boy, 'Omnia Golliain Ires divisa esi.' 'That decides the case,' throwing the book upon the table. 'That clearly acquits the defendant.' "With great dignity and solemnity I toak my seat. The old msgistrate was completely nonplussed. He looked at me a moment quizzically and scratched Mb head. Then, turning to Pompey, he raised- himself to his full height aud said : "'Pompey I know you stole them hams, but by the ingenuity of your law? yer I've got to let you go. Git out,' said he, as he planted his No. 9 in the seat of Pompey's pants, 'and if you ever come here again, lawyer or no lawyer, you git six months.' "?Atlanta Constitution. Meanness is Not Economy. John Jacob Astor, who has recently died, left so great a fortune that it is im? possible for one to even imagine what the figures really stand for??150,000,000! A millionaire one hundred and fifty times over! The father of this Mr. Astor, also named John Jacob, was born near Hei? delberg, in Germany, in 1763. He came here a poor man, but soon made a fortune in the fur business, This story told of him in the Boston Transcript shows that in one case, at least, he lost money by trying to save in a mean way. He learned wisdom from this experience. One of Astor's sea captains had sailed six voyages to China and other distant countries with no chronometer, depending only on "dead reckoning" and "lunar ob? servations." Just before starting on his seventh voyage he suggested to Mr. Astor that it would be safer to have a chrono? meter. "Well, get one," said the mer? chant. .The captain did so, and entered its cost in his acconnt current. When Mr. Astor's eye fell upon the item he drew his pencil through it. The Cap? tain expostulated. ABtor's reply was: "I told you to get one; I didn't say I'd pav for it." The captain severed his connection with Astor then and there, went into Wall Street and engaged with owners, and be? fore night was in command of as fine a ship as ever floated in New York's beau? tiful bay. In three days he was ready for sea and set Bail. At the same time Astor's ship, nnder command of a new captain, set sail also. They had a race for Hong Kong, but tbe captain who, as he used to put it, had discharged John Jacob Astor, by keeping the men at tbe braces, and tak? ing advantage of every puff of wind, won by three days. The ship was loaded in the shortest time possible, and before As? tor's vessel, which had arrived meantime, was half loaded, our captain weighed an? chor, and with a full cargo of tea set sail for Sandy Hook, arrived \\n good time, got his ship alongside the wharf, and be? gan hoisting out bis cargo, which was sold by auction on tbe spot. This glutted the market, for the consumption waB comparatively small in those days, and when Astor's ship came in prices had fallen. Two days later, as the captain was sauntering down Broadway, he met his former employer. "How much did dat chronometer cost you?" asked the latter. "Six hundred dollars," was the reply. "Veil, dat va3 cheap," said Astor; "it coBt me SG0,000. That merchant and the captain both died years ago, but that chronometer is still a good time keeper and treasured relic a3 well. It doe3 not always pay even a rich man to be mean. 1 To Steal The South. Washington, May 1.?According to the alleged authority of the clerk of Sen tor Quay, Mr. Porter, the Superinten dent of the Census, is to have the enu? meration of the negroes in the South made in so careless and incomplete a manner as to give a fraction only of their real numbers. By this plan the South is to lose eighteen oi twenty Representa? tives. In tbe meantime the increase of representation under the new census in the Republican States will give that party as many additional members, and make their control of the House of Rep? resentatives safe and permanent. This and a lot of similar stuff, it is said, was communicated by Mr. Quay's youDg man at the Pittsburg banquet on Saturday night last. In the closing hours of that banquet,according to reports, the wine was in and the wit was out, and many things were said not desirable for the public to hear concerning Republican plans and plots for the future. It is well known and appreciated here, and has been ever since the meeting of Congress, that the Republican leaders, having now every branch of tbe govern? ment in their control, are determined to avail of every possible means to perpetu? ate their power, and will be restrained by no scruples whatever. All of them have been hatching out schemes for six months past, and the busy brain of Quay has been one of the most active. It ha? been said that at the approaching meet? ing of the National Republican Commit? tee in this city Mr. Quay will be pre? pared to lay before his associates some details of a scheme to capture the next House of Representatives despite of and in defiance of the overwhelming popular majority throughout the country against him and his associates. It may bo that some such idea as is put into the mouth of his clerk mav have been suaeested. I but it is scarcely to be apprehended that it could be seriously entertained, because it could not possibly be carried out. There are too many difficulties surround? ing it to make it a success. Mr. Quay, it is said, is opposed to any more election laws, believing the party purposes can be best accomplished through other methods. On the other hand, Speaker Reed, Senators Hoar, Chandler and others think that an iron? clad election law, giving the power to their cieatures to register, count and cer? tify, is all that is needed. All these minor ideas and schemes will probably be discussed at the meeting of the national committee. Mr. Porter, the Superintendent of the Census, might possibly help out tbe protectionist cause by skillful and adroit manipulation of industrial and manufacturing statistics, but even if be w&re disposed to make tbe attempt, and there is no reason to believe he would lends himself to such a scheme, it would be too Herculean a task to drop from the enumeration of the population 2,000,000 persons.?Baltimore Sun. How Indians Get Drunk. They will drink whiskey (and what Indian will not), but even in this they observe a method and a degree of decency that white topers would do well to imitate. When a band or family decide to get drunk they send to the nearest market for one or more gallons of liquor. In spite of the law forbidding the sale of intoxicants to Indians, they have no difficulty in finding white agents willing to procure the stuff for them. It is indeed stuff, and that of the vilest character, though for it the Indians are made to pay at least double tbe price of the best quality. But what frontier trader regards it as anything but meri? torious to cheat a redskin? With the liquor in their possession, the Indians retire to some remote spot where their orgies will not be witnessed by any save themselves, and deliberately prepare for their spree. They first set aside a Bhare of the "fire water" for the squaws, who will not touch a drop of it until their lords have finished their debauch. All guns, knives and other weapons I are then placed in charge of the squaws, j or, if there are no women in the party, they are delivered to one of the men, for whom a certain amount of liquor is re? served. While tbe rest are drunk this guardian of the peace must remain sober' and keenly watchful of the action of his companions. Should he prove unfaithful to his trust, be will be exiled from the tribe, and no Indian will hold communication with him for the term of months or years during which his exile is enforced. While the debauch of his companions lasts he is absolute roaster of the situa? tion, and is at liberty to use any amount of force, even to the taking of life, to repel an attempt to regain possessions of the weapons. If these are left with squaws the same rule holds good for them. The preparations being thus complet? ed, the Indians, using one small tin cup, which is impartially banded from one to another proceed to get solemnly, funnily, furiously and stupidly drunk. The next day it is the turn of the squaws or of the man who has stood guard, and they, too, taste the joys and sorrows of complete intoxication.?Scribner Magazine. Josh Billings?
