It ud bo a long sight better if ho wuz oteu tho way." Tho subject of Si Jackson's oulight enmont was truly a, pitiable sight. He was. half-reclining on a rudo wooden bench in front of the saloon. Tho hot sun, from whteii he s night no protec tion, was glaring full in bis fuce that hail in it the elements of beauty, but now so distorted and bloated as to be repulsive. His hat had dropped to the ground and lay crushed beneath his feet. Tue rough countryman passed him with a look of contempt. Ho had long been a-warning ugainst over-in dulgence. Men who thought themselves strong came and went, drinking us their ap petites demanded, but often cautioning younger men who. drank with them to "look at poor Tom Lovoll. Thet's what comes of not knowing yer capa city. A man's a fool to drink till ho feels hissolf gettin' muddled." And they mentally patted thcmsolves on tho back for being good sociable fol lows, but too clcarhoaded to got drunk. Teni had been forbidden tho saloon? tj for lack of respectability?the tjnur of the saloon, as woll as tho j/ior Inhabitants, were not ovor uleo Jout such small matters but for lack I payment which was a much moro ^??ious affair; yet Tom still hung on outskirts, and in some mysterious '>'? managed to keep drunk. ?He was later and drunker than ovor iiat afternoon as be started home. Ho nado his journey by oasy stages. His going homo win merely a 'natter of habit, so why shouldn't ho stop for a nap or asmokoif he was so inclined? Ho often mado a long detour, leaving the road to find a more 30tn for table place for a long and uninterrupted sleep. Tho light was out at .Ilm Stb loy's as ho passed. Farther on ho mot a solitary horseman. As ho plodded heavily onward he had some vague ideas of staying away from tho tavern next day. Ho bad had subh ideas?ho called them resolutions ?often no fore: they always came to him as he caught Bight of tho baby faco at tho window of his cabin, and they always left him next morning when the thirst eamo strong upon him. His lovo for Maggie was dulled or sleeping ptrhaps, but this lovo for his baby was tho one living, natural thing leftonhls former self. Tho child looked at him with the samo sweet, trustful eyes tho mothor had turned upon him years ago when ho llrst told her he loved her. Tho brown eyes of the mother woro grow ing hvlod, troubled and hard, yet she ?taughttlievchild to love and trust her fatbor. At tho llrst glimpse of tho slouching figure she would place tho child at tho window and say : "Bapa's coining, our dear papa's coming." Then the baby hands would elap and tho shrill little voieo ring out In joyous weloomo. And Tom Lovell novor fail ed to greet tho child with some loving 1 roinombraneo, a posy he had plucked on tho road homoward, or a toy ho had whittled between drinks. But to-night it was late, and tho child had strained hor oyos through tho dark till they grew weary and heavy. She was still in tho chair at tho window fa*t asleop when hor fatbor camo homo. The next morning Tom slept lato and heavily, leaving Maggie to do ovory tblng abo'it the place as usual. In fact, Maggie thought no moro of look ing to Tom for assistance than to the lean and hungry eat which appropria ted a cornor of tho hearth. Tho child played softly about tho house t;o as not t > wako pupa. A ray of sunshine came htualing through a erovlcuand lay ath wart his huso, Impressing him with a sense of uncnmfoi-iahlcnoss. The sunshine ut'?w warmer and final ly arotiHod him. lie draw on his boots, the divesting of which hud constituted hlsdlsrobing the night beforo. Mag gie had left the colfoo on warm embers on the hearth, and his pone of bre?d bosldo it. The eilck, click, of her hoe aeainst the stones could bo heard from tho Hold as she tried to coax tho al mo*t barren earth Into frultfulness, for tho meagre ylold of the fow, acres around the oabln depended her only hope for sustenance. In tho house the child ran to aud fro, making a pruteuue of waiting on the father and entertaining him with her baby prattle. '?Papa tay wlv baby to-day," she pleaded, as she saw him reach his hat. ''Her don' wanner hoe in do tlel'." Already sbo imagined herself shar ing hor mother's burdens. r* You stay with yer ma. Papa'll bring you sotmtbin' nice." "I don't want any ling nice. I wanner go wiv 'oo." ' She had brought in a lapful of Cher okee roses as enticement and offered them to him. lie put her off with his usual promises, and pacilicd her by wearing one of the roses pinned awk wardly to his coat. As he eame In vlow of tho tavern with a native intuition that it was not u proper occasion for floral adornment, he placed the roae inside his i>ooket. A group of men were in front of the store, talking excitedly. Jim Slbley's burn had been burned, with all his stock, consisting of one horse and cow. It was clearly incondiary, but who was the culprit ? Each man had given over and over again his account of the burn lug with all possible details and many dded usurmisos but with no appearance of getting any noaror tho offender. Si Thompson, of course, took tho lead. " It's a hlnus orlmo," declared be. "It's tho hlnusest crime thot's evor been committed In this settlement, und wnoover done it, hanging's too good for 'im." '"Thorn's my sentiments," chorused the listeners. By noon tho men law1 worked them selves to such u state of sympathy for .11 in Sibloy und Indignation at tho cul prit that they chafed uudor, enforced inaction. Tom Lmvoll was conspicuous by his absouco tbut afternoon. Ho had a vague fear which ho dared not ac knowledge to himself aud which warn ed him away from the saloou. Toward night ho saw a horsoman ap proach tho cabin and becon to him. " I didn't want tor holier," ho said, as Tom approached, ?* 'cause your wife might want tor know what's up, but I'm hound t> tell you. Tom, they're after you. You seo they done foun' out it wuz yousut tiro to .lim Sibl?>y's burn; Abo Toby passed jou as you wort) com ing from it hist night, an they've got more convincing proofs. I didn't stay to hoar 'cm. it inought a been a acci dent," as Tom began a protest; "1 don't say as 'twant:butycr never can convince 'om that a-way. You don't know they're down on ycr, anyway. You'd better skip their country; the sooner, the bettor." Without, wuitlng for a roply tho neighbor rode rapidly away,leaving Tom stunned aud dazed, and for tho first titties in years, utmost sobor. Hut bis brain, from long disuse, was too stupid to act: ho sat listlessly about. In tho uight ho lay upon a quilt snread upon the cool piazza, while Maggie inside was walking to und fro with the fretful, fovorlsh child in her arms, singing monotonously. The palo moon drifted through the clouds and cast a sickly light among tho trees. The child was sleeping now. The mother bad thrown herself beside it, aud with her arms still around it was breathing deeply, as tho tirod do in their1 sleep. Suddenly ho started : bis senses were wide awake now. A low, mufllod sound reached his ears. It was tho stoudy tramp, tramp of horsemen. With a face as white as death be turned toward the door of the cabin and looked longingly and loving ly on mother and babo, and thou, liko a flash, bo was oil', disappearing in tho woods. Tho horsemen had made their way steadily and silontly for some time to ward Old Creek Bend. They carried themselves liko men of intense pur pose. Their faces were unmasked and gleamed strong and cruel in tho moon light. The horses were of shaggy mountain breed ; across the pommel each man carried a ritlo. An outrage against tho hard-earned and slowly ac cumulated property of these men was more heinous than an outrage upon human lifo. Tho latter thoy might forgive, but the fortnor never. The Ufa of bis horse was as dear and as necessary to his family almost as bis own ; bis cow afforded -mstenanco to his children. The holocaust which had boon visited upon Jim Sibloy's property could bo avenged but with one punishment, and that was death. Euch neighbor felt himself bound by the ties of friendship and common in terest to see that justice, swift and sure, was measured out to the culprit. Tho party hail emerged from tho woods into a clearing, when tho voice of their leader rang out " Halt!" Every man pulled in his horse aud peered into the road. There stood trembling before them tbo figure of a man. Every one recognized In the moonlight the palo faco of Toni f, ?voll. " Well, Huh," exclaimod Abo Toby, tbo leader, " yor runnin' the wrong way. Mobbo you didn't know we wore on the way to pay you a visit." " 1?I knowed it, 1 knowod it," ex claimod Tom, troinulously, ''an' I come tor moot yer." An incredulous " humph " from tho men. " Yor don' sesso," rejoined Abe, sar castically. '' We dldn t count on soch i? hearty welcome." Ad he spoke ho slowly unwound a rope from his saddle and approaohod Tom, but Tom put out his bunds dopro catingly "I don't resist you. I'll go peace able, but don't tio mo." Somewhat taken aback by the man's acquiescent attitude, and disappointed in their expectation of a scone, tho moo closed round him and rode back Into tho woods to a spot which had ovidontly beon agreed upon previously They stopped bonoath a big oak whoso arms seemed spreading ovor thorn in benediction, whilo tbo murmuring leaves whisporcd a sanetisslina; hut a* llttlo heed did those rough woodsmen pay to tho beauty of tho spot as the an oiont heathen to tho saeredness of tho cathedrals whence they, butchored their captives. Men woro thero who had invited tho prisoner to his first drink; who had laughed at his foolishness whon tipsy, who had scornod his disgrace whon drunk ; and now In his orimo thoy were crying : " Shoot him !" Iiovell'8 hands woro quickly bound, a ropo placed around his neck; every man shouldered his rillo and stopped back a few pacos. "Tom Lovoll,"spoke Abo Toby, " we give you flvo minutes to pray or to say why you shouldn't hov' justice for burnin' Jim Sibloy's barn and his crit ters." " Yes, I dono It boys. I ain't deny In' that, an' mobbo I deserve what you are goln* ter give mo. I know I'm onery ; but I deolaro 'foro Ood I didn't do It in tentional. I went thero to go to sleep. L lit my pipe an' mus' a drappod some tire, but taln't that I'm worry In' over, boys, for God's sake don't lot her know what happened to rno. I'll git on ray knees to beg you that. I don't ask (or my life, it ain't wuth it, but I do ask you, don't lot Maggio know." '?How kin she koop from it V" sai.l a rough voioe. " We ain't goin* tor pro Bent her with yor carcass, but she'll bo sho' to hoar 'bout yer ruisforchiu." Tom Lovell hud apparently thought it out boforobaud. Without a mo menta hesitatiou. he hogged: "Jos' lot one of yor do tho shootiu' an' carry me to the big road. She'll think somebody followed me from the tavern." He was still on his knees, pleading so earnestly as to awaken some latent pity in those rough natures. ''It mought ez well bo thet way as any," Haid Abo Toby. "One shot'll do tho work ez woll ez twenty?if it's a she shot. Jim Sibley, you's the short est, an' 'twuz yo' barn en critters." The men promptly agreed, while Jim Sibloy mildly protested at tho doubtful hsaior thrust upon him. Nevertheless, be got bis gun In position und sighted at tho pitiful object boforo him. " How kin I git a drop on i.lm when T kuln't toll him from some of the shad dors ?'? " Hut yor linen pockot-haudkorchev ovor bis heart for a mark." " We ain't no dudos, an' this ain't no ineetin'-houso for to be tlourlshln' whlto pockot-handkerohevs," said an other. ?'Mobbo Tom's got ono hlsself," vou turod unothor, as he suw Tom's olforts to got to his pookot. '' Bf you'll untie my hands a minute I'll iix it," said Tom. " Wall, 1 uovor saw a man so wlllln' to he'p at bis swn funoral." They untied bishunds, and, fumbling nervously at his pookot, Tom brought out a crushed white rose and pinned it over h's heart. Was it tho faint, sweet smell of tho rose, or the glimpse of a tear as it flashed upou it in tho moon light, that made tho objects before Jim Sibley grow misty ? Tho leader's voice rang out , " Heady, aim, fire," but still Sibley stood with his gun in position. A long time ho stood so. Tho men hold their breath in suspenso. Again tho leader called out the words of command. At the word " firo " a shot rang out. A small bough from tho top of the oak dropped at Tom Lovell's feet. Jim Sibley drop ped bis gun and turned to tho crowd. " Maggie Barton kin hev Tom Lovell agin ez tor ez J'm consumed. I guess killhv him ain't goln1 to bring back my barn an' critters, and ez 'twas my prop erty it's nobody's business if 1 let him go. This meotin's adjourned, an' if anybody objects, bo Can settle it with mo." So saying, ho walked up to tho prisoner and cut the ropes that bound him. There was somo dissatisfaction among tho mon, for an angry mob is not easily pacified : but either Tom Lovell's humility or Jim Sibley's repu tation as a man who booked no contra diction or perhaps both, had taken tho spirit out of the party, so they grutn bingly dispersed. Maggie was walking the child in her arms again when Tom stood in tho doorway. His face was so white it alarmed her. "(Jim mo tho the baby, honey : you lie down an' rest," he said us he took tho child out. of her arms. His wife looked a him in astonish ment. Drinking had never affected him like this: besides, hoi bud been sleeping on the piazza as she had left him some, time ago. Still a vague doubt crossed her mind. "Tom, you haven't becu to the tav ern, have you ?." "No, honey: an' with Cod's help 1 never will go again." Anil ho never did. T#II0 WH.YTHKll AND CHOI'S. The Drought Continues in Northern and Western Counties?The Law est Acreage of Corn liver Planted. Tue temperature was much lower than usual during tho middle of tho week, especially iu the interior of tho State. The nights were particularly cool in the extreme wostorn counties. Tho average temperature was two degrees per day cooler than tho usual. Tho highest temperature reported was 1)8 on July .'list at Spartanburg; the lowest 55 on the 2d at Central. The mean temperature of tho week for tho State was 78, and the normal for the same period is approxiately 80. With unimportant exceptions, tho entire rainfall for tho week fell on tho ovening of tho 3d and during tho Ith. (Saturday and Sunday.) It was In sutlicient in tho counties where most needed, and was excessive in Beaufort county whore tho fall was heaviest, generally moro than four iuches. The week's rainfall varied from "trace" to half an inch in Chesterfield, Lan caster, York, Florence, Falrtield, Kor sbaw, iliehland, Spartanburg, Green ville, Union, Laurens, Abbeville, An derson, New hurry and Lexington ; in Picken?, Alken, Orangeburg, Sumter, Clarendon. Fdgelield, Marlboro, Dar lirfgtou and Hampton too fall varied botween half an Inch anil two inches : in Williamsburg. Charleston, Uorry, Barn Well, Berkeley, Colteton, Beaufort tho rainfall amounted generally to from two to four Inches. Thus it is seen that the droughty conditions have been Intensified in the westurn and northern counties, while tho (south eastern portion of tho State has an excess of moisture. Tho greatest rain fall reported was 4.60 inches at Beau fort; leust "trace.'' at Chesterfield. The average of 41 rainfall reports was l.ii I inches and tho normal for the same period is approximately 1.08. The sunshine varied between .'111 and lull per cent, of tho possible, with an average of about 112, which is nearly normal. There wore local high winds in Elizabeth Township, Orangcburg. that materially damaged corn and cotton iu that vicinity. Tho condition of cotton, whilo not greatly changed, is nevertheless loss satisfactory than heretofore, there being many complaints of shedding' both loaves and "shapes," and the plant has seemingly stopped growing even where tho weather was most favorable. Early peas are ripening; tobacco curing continues and the condition of this crop is highly satisfactory ; ono correspondent reports damage by un skillful curing.

THE 0HARMS OF CJiESAR'S HEAD. A FAITHFUL BKtSTCH OF NA< TUlll/S GREAT FREAK. The Profile in (lie While MmiutuiiiH and C.'iesar's Head in the nine Ridge? A New Version of RrtltUS mid the Roman Kmpcror. Dr. Lansing Burrows In Augusta chronicle. CvKSAH'S Bio AD, S. O, Aug. 5.? Who can tell how many centuries this grim jot placid face has gu/.ed down upon tho far-reaching plain of the Palmetto State? Through iho rosy summer and the blanched winter it ha? turned its stony stare, silent and Immovable, through ail the change ful histories of men. There have been scenes of peaceful pastoral life when men have wrought for generous har vests amid these fertile fields and scenes of desolation svhen men turned in the rage of war upon their breth ren Uuinoved by either, this strange face has simply regarded them with out frown for their murderous hate or smile for their healthful Industry. There are two of these remarkable simulations of the human luce, carved in lasting stoue in the United States. The other is far up in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, known as the I'rotile. Like this head, it is perched upon the stimm it of a hare, inaccessible clill of the hardest y ranite. Tho features, when viewed at tho proper angle, are clear-cut, and repre sent an old man with receding mouth and protruding chin. Tho head in tho lilue Ridge is equally clear in its out lines, but is tue physiognomy of a vir ile man, without suggestion of decrep it ago. Tho bold Roman nose is what has associated it with the ambitious Crosar. That and tue expansive fore head and orator's mouth, well-tnarkod, although coinprossed, combine in un admirable presentation of the man who swayed empires. The New Hamp shire l'rolilo might mean any old man ?tho hard-living, economical fanner ?dragging subsistence from those re luctant fields. The South Carolina profile Is a warrior, with a look of command, inspiring with awo for its majesty. Tho ono is Puritan, the other is Cavalier. Tho ono is tho type of New England sentiment?stern, solf-containud, earnest; the other is tho typo of tho Southern?dashing, heroic commanding. Tho very mek.-. partake of the character.sties of the people who (La oil In their Bhadows. Tho head of Cie-iar lifts itself above tho great .plain that stretches to the sea, upwards of 4,000 feet. Erom its crown one may boliold a vast expanse. Lot the day be clear and tho ordinary eye shall behold Stone Mountain, neur Atlanta, on the one side, and King's Mountain, near Chariotto, on the other; and these peaks are 300 miles apart, intorvoning tho rolling coun try lios; billowing itself Into little mountain ranges or Uolated hills, ami sparkling with homesteads uppa ! which the sun falls, tlashlug them into jewels sot in tho vast swoep of green. . Ono looks down upon mountains that ; are high and steep enough to discour ; ago any ordinary climber, and looks up I ut a sky so faultlessly blue thtt noth i ing can be seen but Ood. To lio upon J the bare rock alone, in the uuspoaku ble silence,, and look down upon a world whose hum of industry and walls of sorrow cannot roach the alortost ear, is tho emphasis of solitude. One novor feels the littleness of tnun bo much as thus, when with nothing but "green calm below, bluo quietness abovo," and is so far away that tho fa miliur earth loses its dlstinotivonosa and becomes as much a wondor as the unfathomable depths that aro above. Tho clilf with its head wrought In the gneiss is uot the only object of in terest. It Is upon tho great rooky wall that forms tho famous escarpment. To the westward tho earth is tumbled into all sorts of shapes, tho mountains are tumultously throwu together, pre senting steep sidos, iuterlaccd with a mighty tangle of monstrous growths, and garnished with numberless streamlets that cast themselves in rap turous abandon down into invisible glades. There aro wonderful vistas through whieh tho blue of distant poaks und ranges intrude thoiUbOlvts. like monitors of tho divino. Cataracts leaping from elovations of a thousand feet are not rare, and lessor fa1 Is, more beautiful in thoir attenuated ypray, abound, Over all whispers a cool and gontlo air that is novor felt in the plains.beneath for there it be comes that mysterious upper stratum in whieh the white lleeeo of tho sum mer clouds float In thoir langourous case. Tho scent of tho balsam, tho faint sighing of tho spruce trees, tho dead silence of human voice and move ment entice to drowsiness even while "?the morning pouring everywhere Its golden glory on the air," wakens men below to tho active iu dustries of life. There is ono peeul arity among mountains. I doubt if I have ever roamed through them without finding dozens of places known as "cover's Leap." The worn-out legend of the Indian brave carrying away his will ing captive and ruthlessly pursued un til ho comes across a tremendous pre* Oipice over which he casts bltnfelf With his dusky Mary .lane, is well known in these parts. That reckless, jumping Indian must have lived every where, and always had a relay of maidens to jump with him. He went over CtB*ar S llead, so they say. lie has gone ovor every cliff 1 ever saw. I wonder, too. how many ?4Bridal-veil Falls" There are?thin diaphanous Shoots that tumble over convenient rocks withan uncomfortable dampness. Wo need a revised mountain nomen clature, and some fresh legends. Dr. Mhos, who is a model Inn-keeper, and who controls the hotel tin the cliff at CnMar's llead, told me a new le gend. Ho has a comfortable old ho tel, after tho hospitable primitive sort, perehed high up in the sweet air of tho mountain summits. Ho wel comes tho guests himself with a grave pose that gives assurance of the sinceri ty of hb- greeting. Ho looks after the comfort of his guests himself, answer ing tho same questions, and ulToroing tho same information as to distuncos, as if ho had not been doing it five hundred times a day for twenty years. No ono ruBios his calm serenity, and he goes over the same ground, an swering tho sumo questions that the questioner put the day before. He keeps u plain wholesome table, and provides beds that aro couches of lux ury In this sleep-provoking atmos phere. But to Iiis legend. When the groat Imperial Canar, now dead anil turned today, was alive, he had a falllngout with a man who threatened to meet him at Ohillipi, or Obllllpera or Ohiladephlu, or some such slow town ; but whatever his fate should be, thcro should be raised for him an eternal monument in an un discovered land.

Jackson, Associate Justice of tho Supremo Court of the United States, died at Iiis resldouce. West Mead, six miles west of Nash ville, Tenn., on the 8th tulit., in the 04th year of bis age. of consumption. Judge Jackson had been in failing health for tho past four years, but it has boen only in the past eight or ton mouths that the progress of the dis ease caused his family and friends uuy uneasiness. Last year be went on a l.-ngth/ trip to the far West in search of health. Later be wono to Thoiuus ville. Ca., where it was hoped tho mild and yot bracing climate would restore his one-timo vigorous constitution. Tho trip did him little good, and after a time he was brought home. At Iiis oid home Judge Jackson seemed to im prove slightly, until he wont to Wash ington to sit In tho second hearing of tho income tax cases. Ho stood that trying trip only fairly well, aud afior his return home appeared to lose strength rapidly. Nevertheless Judge Jacksou never took to his hod uutil within a week of his death. Since that time his family and friends realized that the ond was near, aud his death was not unexpected. Howell Edmunds Jackson was horn In Paris, Tenn.. April K, 18.12, so that ho was in his sixty-third year at tho time of his death. Justice Jaeksbn was a classical scholar, graduating from tho West Teuncssoo College in 1848. He studied law two years at tho University of Virginia, aru in Jackson, under his kinsmen, Judges S. A. Wit ten and s. A. Brown, lie graduated from the Lobunpu Law School in 18;',(i, In which yoar he located in Jacksou and engaged In the practice of his pro fession : ietnovi d to Memphis in 1850, where lie continued the practice of law ; served on the Supreme bench by appointment on two occasions, and was oueo a prominent candidate for Su preme Judge before the nominating convention; re-located In Jackson in 1870? was elected to the State House Ol Hopresoututtves in 1880 on the Statu credit platform; was elect*u to the United States Senate as & Democrat in 1881 and Borve-.l ur?HJ April 12.- 188(1; wa? appoluted United Suites Circuit Judge by 1'resident Cleveland and Dominated for Associate Justice by President Harrison : was continued by the Senate Eeburnry IS, 1893, and en tered upon tho Unties of the ollico March 4, 1893. Judge Jackson was twice married, the Urst time to Miss Sophia Miller, daughter of David B. Miller a han ker of Memphis, who did in 1873. Of this union lour children were horn, as follows : Henry, Mary, William 11. and Howell Jackson. Henry Jackson is at present soliciting freight agent of the Southern Hai I way. with head Quarters at Atlanta : W. 11. Jackson is district attorney of tho Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, ut Cincinnati: Howell is manager of Jameson Cotton Mills, at Jacksou, Tenn. In 1870 Judge Jackson married Miss Mary E. Harding, daughter of Gun. Win. E. Harding. Of this union three children survive?the Misses Elizabeth and Louise Jacksou and Harding A. Jackson. With tho exception of Miss Elizabeth hud Win, H. Jr., who are in Europe, the children were at the bed side when the distinguished sutVeror passed away. When Justice Jackson was so seri ously ill last spring that he was not ex pected to recover, the name of his suc cessor was considerably speculated on. Tho idea was suggested by sonic that tho President would again name Messrs. Peck ham or Hornblower, of New York, while tho selection of u man from the West fell to Don Dickin son. Postmaster General Wilson wus strongly spoken of as among the possi bilities, while the majority of opinion was that Secretary Carlisle could have the place if he wanted it. Mr. Carlisle would bo especially eligible, as he would be appointed from the same dis trict that the death of Justice Jackson lias mittle vaca.it. Tho last time that Judge Jackson was in Washington was on the occasion of the rehearing in tho income tax | last May. lie hud been absent from the olty and from tho bench since tl. ? prpcedlng fall, When, soon after tho convening of the October term of court, he had been compelled to j,'o South on account of his rapidly declin ing health. During his absence there had been contradictory reports us to his physical condition, hut tho prevail ing opinion among his colleagues on the bench was that he would never again be able to resume bis seat. Mr. Jackson had the reputation in Washington, and especially about the Supreme (Join t of being very fti nsitivc couceruingany discussion ol his health in the public press, and he referred to the subject very sparingly in his con versation. Tho other members of tho court wvre, therefore, poorly advised as to his condition. This state of af fairs is said to have been the reason for the equivocal character of the nil nounceracnt of the decision to grant a rehearing in tho income tux caso, which of necessity depended upon Judge Jackson's presence. He was in Washington on tho ooca* j slon of tho rehearing tor several days i and gave his attention assiduousij to the income tax cases. Ho sat through the argument, which coDt'nued for three days, took part in the COUSulta- I tion of tue court, and, when the day I arrived for the announcement of tho | decision, notoniy listened patiently 10 : the opinions of most of the other ineiii hers of the court, but delivered a vlg- I orOUS opinion of Iiis own In support of j the validity of tho law. This occur red on tho 2(lth of May. and was bis last public upporanoe. lie returned to his home in Tennessee late in May. When Judge Jackson was in Wash Ington on tins occasion it was evident to all v. no came in contact with him thakllfo was slowly but surely ebbing away, but that tho effort he hau made m performing the duties on that occu ' sion was niauo at tue expense of Iiis i vitality. i As Senator and Justice of tho Su Un emo Court, Mr. Jackson had resided n Washington about eight years. His 0880eiates there were confined largely j to his associates on the bench. Hy them he was universally ostoenied aoa man of high moral worth and rich In? ; tollectual attainr.ionts as was evinced iu nothing so much as his appointniont to tho Supreme Bonch by Prcsldont Harrison and bis confirmation by a Republican Scnato, notwithstanding he was a Democrat.

Thoro is a magnetism surrounding tho name of Whitney whieh tteenid to at tract all factious in the Democratic party, lie comes nearer being the popular oholce of the united nomo cracy than any other man now in sight. Hid magnificent management of the last Cleveland campaign has never been excelled in national polities, und ho has managed to keep out of all en tangling alliances since that great vic tory was achieved. Those who wore on th-! inside at tho last Chicago Convention know that it wus the sagacity of Mr. Whitney that prevented Combinations being made against the. nomination of Mr. Cleve land on the llrst ballot. It was upon his advice that the r'uirehild delega tion from New York reluctantly con sented to make no turntest for scuts in the Convention. They went to Chica go in great numbers, took the best apartments in tho grandest hotels and wore prepared to make a determined issue before the Convention for recog nition. When Mr. Whitney arrived on the scone be at once established friendly relations with all the contend ing factions in the various delegations, and soon sized up the situation to the ell'ecj that, in spite of all the combina tions that might be made, a majority of the delegates elected to tin ConVt n lion were unultorably In favor of tho uotnin tt'on of Mr i levelaud.

Tho name of Mr. Morrison has been casually mentioned in connection with the campaign of 181MJ, but it had taken no decisive turn until ibe statomt nt credited to Senator Hill came out that the Demoorats should nominate a Wes tern man and that Win. H. Morrison measured up to all demands of Demo cracy.
