THE NEWS AND HERALD. WINNSBORO, S. C. T UJZ8DAY, APRIL 1, :, 1879. R. MEANS DA VIS, EDITOR. JNO. 8. REYNOLDS, A8SPCIA1 EDITOR. JUDGE MACKEY wilIl produce con vincing proof before the United States Senate that Corbin's private character, independent of politics, is such as to unfit lim to become Chief Justice of Utah. OONGREss has ordered Colnmissioner LeDuc to supply a reasornble quantity of sceds and shrubs to Congressmen to distribute among their constituents. An increased appropriation has been made for the purpose. JUDGE PlEssLEY has filed his de cision sustaining the validity of the York county bonds, amount lug to one hundred thousand dollars, issued in aid of the Chester and Lenoir Narrow Gauge Railrcal Company. The case w'1l now go to the Supreme Court. THE GOUIvD-VINE philosopher of the Atlanta Censtitution thus with hin self communes: Did you ever notice, O credulous nianter i that just about cotton planting time the price goes up a few notches? And did you ever observe that just about picking time it drops a few inches-so to speak? JoI:N PATTIISON is raising a colony for Arizona. His best chance is to recruit from his old compeers who, like himself, are fugitives in foreign lands'from South Carolina justice. If Arizona is wise, however, she will l organize a vigilance committee to take charge of any colony that goes there under Patterson's lead. SPEAKER RANDALL has appointed I his committees. The chairmen of the most important are as follows: Ways and Means, Fernando Wood; Elec tions, Springer; Appropriations, At kins; Banking, Buckner; Coinage, Stephens; Commerce, Reagan; Judi ciary, Knott; Agriculture, Covert; Naval Ailihirs, Whitthorne; Foreign AfQhirs, Cox; Expenditures in the State Department, Clymer; In the Treasury, Morrison; In the War De partment., Blackburn; in the Navy, Townshend, of Illinois; In the De partment of Justice, 'Blount; Levees, Robertson, of Louisiana. Most of these are re-appointments. Eating One's Own Words. Seldom, if ever before, has the ex pression "making him eat his words" been used In any othier than a mecta phorical sense. To Russia has been reserved the privilege of having It literally fulfilled. A certain Nihilist, or opponent of the government, hav lng been convicted of writing a book expressing his peculiar views, was sentenced to the alternation of receiv ing one thousand blows of the knout or of eating one of his books. As the former meant simply death under the most excruciating torture, ho chose the latter. One of the offending volumes, a quarto of several hundred pages, was produced, and the unhappy author beganm the task of chewing up and swallowing It page by page. After one-third of it had beeni dis posed of, the physician in charge decided that this was about as much t as even a forty-ostrich-digestive ap paratus could digest; and the p)unish ment was for a time suspended. On two succeeding days the remainder of the sentence was performed. The performer of this unique gastronomic feat still lives, but ho will hardly try another book soon. What a pity a similar sentence could: not be passed on the perpetrators of worthless novels and similar trash now flooding the market. The food would not be very solid, it is true, but fearfully indigestible. Or, as this is the day of absurd matches, let some one offer a prize to the person that can'swallow a thousanid dime novels in a thousand consecutive hours. In this wvay we might at once got rid of the whole stock In trade of yellow back novels and of thme fools who con sume them. In Union is Strength. Despite all p)rotestations to thme con trary, tho Western Greenbackems have about discovered the futility of run ninng anm independent tIcket, and they are now mnaking efforts to coalese with the Democrats. These two parties combined in a recent election for judge in Michigan, and, although defeated, canie within two thousand votes of success in a hitherto Reopubli can stronghold. *It is true that in November when three tickets were run the Republicans were in si minori ty of twenty-fle thousand, but they had a plurality of about fifteen thou sand over the Dtnmooratse, and eleoted their Congresbft ri.. A Ataon thoui would,have iwomtie:day. . JmOhio the D9lneem7s~ en bar f V4 -Plyadg O104 Oo nj the State ticktt. Last year the Demo. erats had but;three thou :and less than the Republieans and there were filty thousand GS'eenbackers beside. The latter now see the folly of splitting the Democritic party, and they are returning to the fold. The West is the stronghold of the Greenbacker. and when he sees there the wisdom of not making a separate fight, his example should lead all others who are merely actuated by a desire of changing die Iln4nCes of the country to rpmain in the Democratic party and make their light in the Democratic Conventions. It, was the fatal policy :f the Grxeenbackers last 'all that gave iwaythe North to the litadi,al party amd strengthened the hands of Grant an'd the money kings. If the Green backers are wise they will avoid such 1. mistake in future. What the financial policy of the ;overmnent may be is a small matter .n comparison with human liberty md constitutional government. The Etadical party is the deadly foe of ,hese, and must first be destroyed. kid the South in 1860, we predict, viii stand upon any platform, hard noney or soft money, that will niost ikely insure the defeatof Raidicalism. Ve are not troubled about the sort of noney-any will do, provided Radi alism is killed dead.
