BRUTAL AssAULT-A man ma med
Morgan. who is employed in some capacity at
the Railroad Depot, went into Powells Drug
Store last evening and called for ten cent g
worth Of castor oil. The required. amount
was given him. but he appeared dissatisfied
with the quantity, and desired the bottle e lied
up for an additional FIVE cents. This DR..
Semple refused to do. at the same time telling
Morgan that he mad been in the store for near
ly a year and had never given more oil for ten
cents than was in the bottle at the time At
this N Morgan bristled up and told Doctor Sem
pie he lied. The Doctor ordered him to leave,
and stepping from behind the counter, took
hold of Mcrgan's arm and lead him to the door.
Just a. they reached the door. Morgan turned
and .ma shed the bottle over DR.. Semple head.
cutting him very severely on the forehead and
cheek au d badly iojuring his eye. The scoun.

under tho Constitution, and Indicate her
grievances while the flag Of the nation
waved over her. There wus no way for
State to go out Of the Union, except by
making war aud vindcating by the force Of
arms her right to independence, and IL she
did this, no had prophesy in bis mind.
No man would regret more than himself tho
disruption Of any portion Of the United
States where tho people think themselves
aggrieved, if there was any honorable re-
lease from it. But all this trouble is
matter of prejudice supernduced by listen
ing to the enemies of the Republican party.
We are looked upon in tho light of enemies;
we are branded as traitors; we are styled
John Brown mon but il the South will ,
secede wo will preserve tho Union and
await the glorious future.
Mexico owes England eight millions Of
dollars, and asks Of us protection, and she
has all the elements 10 build up glori-
Gus Republican Empire. The Republican
party wili do anything for the Union.-
| The Senator from Illinois ard his col.
! league had said that the Black Republi-
cans were going for reign of equality,
and would build up a black Government.
He { (Wade) thought it would be one Of
the most blessed things, il inducements
could be made TO every black man among
us to find home in Central America or
or Lower Mexico. Then adopt the
homestead policy, and we will have such
a power, vested in native white men, as
was never before seen. Men Of every
cline come among us. and we will build
up nation Of laboring men. Then Can
ada will knock at our doors, and we viii
have all the elements to build up repub-
lie more fast than the world has ever
dreamed Of. He was for maintaining the
rything TO maintain it. The glorious
old flag OF ours never shall, by any act
or word Of bis, cease to wave over this
nation as il is. But, if we will have it in
the new renovated Government OF which
he had spoken, the old fourth Of July wili
never be repealed, and the old flag Of
l776 will float over this nation foiever.-
This Capitol, gentlemen had said, would
do for a Southern Republic. Sirs, il shall
ever be the capital oil our Union. II was
laid by Washington and conseerated by
him, and the Gag vindicaIed in the revo-
luton shall ever continue TO float in the
breeze over it. Applause in the galleries.
Washington and his patriots fought for
that good old flag, and it was the glory Of
their lives. His (Wsde's) own father
though an humble soldier, fought 10 says
the great cause, and went through sex<n-
fold hardships for it. lie bequeatbed
the flag Of his country 10 his children for
their protection. 1t was his (Wade's)
protection in youth and the glory and
pride Of his riper years, and though it
+ might be assailed by traitors on every
. side. yet, by the grace of God, under it's
shadow he would die.

Big Words.

Big words (says Quilp Of the Boston PosO
are great favorites with people of small
ideas and weak conceptions. They are often
employed BY mon of mind, whom they wish
to use language that may best conceal their
thoughts. With few exceptions, however,
ilIiterate and halfeducated persons nse
more "big words than people of thorough
education. 1t is very common but very
egregious mistake to suppose the long
words are more genteel than short ones
Just as the same sort of people imagine high
colors and fiashy figures improve the style
of dress. Thoy arc the kind Of folks who
don't begin, but always "commence" They
don't, live but "residc." They don't go to
bed, but mysteriously "retire." They don't
cat and drink, put "partake Of refresbn ents." :"
They are never sick, but Extremely indis.
posed" And instead of dying, at last, they
''dccease." The strength of the English
language is ir the short words-chief1y
monosyllables of Saxon derivation-and
people who are in earnest seldom use any
other. Love, hate, anger, grief, joy, ex-
press themselves in short words and direct
sentences; while cunning, falsohood and
affeciation delight in what Horace calls
'perba 'rsquipedaia"-"words foot and .
| half lone"

Origin of Hail Columbia

In the "Recollecions OF Washington" lust
published, occurs the following aneedote THE
song of Hail Columbia adapted in measure to the
Presidents March, wns written by Joseph Hopkin.
son, OF Philadelphia 1898. Al the time war with
France was expected, and patriotic feeling per-
yaded the community. Mr.. Fox, young singer
and actor, called upon Hopkinson one morning,
and said: Tomorrow vening is appointed for
my benefit at the theater Not a single box has
been taken, and fear there will be thin house.
II you will write some patriotic on the tune
OF The Presidents March, feel sure of a full houso
Several peop'e about the theater have attempted
il, but they have come TO the conclusion that IL
cannot be done. Yet think you may succeed"
Mr.. II. retired TO his study wrote the first verse
and chorus, and submitted them to Mrs. H., who
sung them To hdrpsichord accompaniment. The
time and the words harmonized. The song wus
soon finished, and that evening the young actor
received il. The next morning the placaTds an
nounced that Mr.. Fox would give new patriotic
song. The house was crowded-the cong was
sung-the audience was delighleG-eight times il
was called for and repeated, and when sung tho
ninth time, the whole audience slood up and joined
in the chorus. Night after night "Hnil Colum.
hin" was applnuded in the theaIer; and, in few
days, 1t was the universal song OF the boys in our
streets: Such was the origin oi our National song,
