They have corrupted t Eteii 4* * * •ome prominent Reformers, but the maaserbf the people are truer than ever to the cause of Reform apd will stand firm for their demands. Thfc above is clipped from’ an editorial in the Columbia Register, in which the editor calls attention to the desperate efforts, as he puts it, of thexonserratives to gain control of the State, and gives os a proof of their despertiou, that they have cor rupted some prominent reformers. The Register, in justice to itself and its readers, ought to be more explicit and give the names of these traitors to the sacred cause of reform. And jrhile it is in the exposure business it wonld be just os well to tell what means were used to corrupt these heretofore spotless patriots. Really the conservatives are showing a good deal of heartless cruelty in taking advantage of the weakness of these poor innocent reformers, and their conduct is in the highest degree reprehensible^ We sincerely trust that the con servatives will stop this kind of badness or before they are aware of it tiie Register itself might be cor' rnpted. The Columbia Register is mention lag • ease at extreme poverty, in the person of an old factory operative, no longer able to work, makes it the text of a sermon on communism, in which it assumes that the condition at the laboring man is getting worse and worse every year, and that it is practically impossible for him to Blake any provision for old nge. What tim Register asserts is the re- vena of being true for it is a well known fact that the laboring man, ■hnoet without exception, fares in finitely better than his ancestors did, and enjoys comforts, which, from universal use, have come to be re garded as, necessities, that his ances ton were strangers to or had never beard of. That labor is, in many instances, taken advantage of by ooaomtrated capital, Is all very true, bat despite this the assertion may bt safely made that a case where the laboring man is unable to save some* thing is extremely ram, and if in old Igt he has to face poverty it is owing to till fact that he made no effort to pat aside any money for the very contingency that he is now called upon to face. The Register cites the one of the French Revolution as a wanting,to our capitalists, but where the comparison oomes in we are unable to see, os the grievances of the Vmoh people, under the merciless OfOOtktts of an absolute monarchy, bod reached a point beyond which hooMU forbearance could not go, whsreas in the ease of the,working man ofthii fOtthtry he has ths peaceful weapon of the ballot for his protection, and if this does not make it possible for him to secure his rights, without a resort to b , oodshed, then a Republican government and naivsrsal suffrage are failures and the qnicker they are done away with the bettor it will be for all classes of our pB^le The Register is very fond of ]>osiug os the friend and champion of the laboring man, but the insincerity of Ue solicitude for their Welfare, is so very manifest aa to be easily perceived by all intelligent people. The true friend of the laboring man is not he who topobes him the doctrines pf communism and incites him to deeds of viqlenee and bloodshed, but he that tells him the truth, points ont his faults and induces him, when he hM grievances, to seek redress by peaceful and lawful measure*, and not by a reeort to violence which would bring the country to a condi *v .. j:.

It difieru'from the rest of its family only in this particular and in being almost "oicoloss. Among recent breeds of pigeons is the parlor tumbler, which has not only lost the power of flight, but has very nearly lost that of wallring as well. Its queer mo tions when it attempts to walk have given it its name, the tumb ler. “As thick as the hair on a dog’s hack,” expresses nothing in Mex ico, for the Mexican dog is utterly devoid of hair on his back or any where else. The hot climate hav ing rendered it superfluous, Moth er Nature kindly divested him. of it. Nor does “the little busy bee improve each shining hour’! in that country. On the contrary, it soon learns that as there is no winter there, there is no necessity for laying in a store of honey, and degenerates into a thoroughbred loafer. “As big as a whale,” might be rather small, as there is a species of the cetacean genus hardly throe feet long. “As canning as a fox” would have sounded idiotic to thq discov erers of Kamchatka. They found foxes in large numbers, but so stupid, because they had never before seen un enemy, that they could be killed with clubs. The “birds of a feather” that “flock together” do not belong to the penguin family, as they are entirely destitute of feathers, hav ing for a covering a kind of stiff down. Another penguin puculinr- ity is that it swims not oii but un der water, never keeping more than its head out, and when fish ing, coming to tho surface at such bnef and rare intervals that an ordinary observer would almost certainly mistake it for a fish. Ducks swim the world over, but geese do not. In South Amer ica a domestic species is found that, cannot excel an ordinary hen in aquatic accomplishments.

I’ll order some to-morrow.” Nest morning she went to the butcher’s and asked for four pounds of sweetmeats.—Texas Siftings. Oklaxda, Fla., June 2, '92. Messes. Lipemax Bkqs., Proprietor P. P. P., Savannah, Ga. ■ Gentlemen: 1 feel it my duty to inform you of the cure your wonderful medicine P. P. P. wrought in my case. I have suffered for two years with dyspepsia ami malaria in the worst form, and was a daily sufferer from sick headache. My bowels did not act but twice a week and frequently only once a week. I could not retain half late and my Stomach was always uncomfortably heavy; I have tried pills, all kinds of medicines, bnt only found temporary relief in them. I was despondent and was hoping to soon find relief in death. Seeing yonr P. P. P. adver tisement I decided to try it and re- S uestcd Dr. Peak to get me a bottle, have taken two bottles and will loon get another, and I oau now eat in peace and enjoy everything, and can sleep like a top. My headaches have ceased and mv bowels are regular. I would ad vise all sufferers like mvself to give P, P. P. a trial, and they will write you as I have that P. P. P. beats any medicine oh the market.
