81 We very cheerfully comply with the request

eY We very cheerfully comply with the request
of our correspondent, E Pluribus Unum," to pub
llsh the speech of the Hon. Bedford Brown, deliver
ed in the Senate of the United States, in 1883,
the Revenue Collection or Force Bill. This speech
will prove interesting at this crisis as the condition
Of the country is very similar now to what it was
then. 1t is State Rights Union speech, and bears
the marks of much research and thought on part
of its distinguished author But our correspondent
refers more at length to the speech and to the
dition of the times in which it was delivered:-
For the Standard.
Mr.. HOLDEN: The writer of this communication
respectfully requests you to republsh the speech of
x,SenatOr Bedford Brown, delivered in the Senate
of the United States, in February 1888, in orpos-
tion to the Force Bill, intended 20 suppress nuf-
cation in the State of South Carolina. The speech
reported fails far short of justice to that delv
cred. Mr.. B. never revised it, having been called
home by domestic aiction few days after it was
made. The principles which it maintains are emf
nentIy union, and will endure, and are peculiarly
applicable 10 the present crisis. They assume, that
the Federal Union can only be maintained by ab-
starring from encroachments on the reserved rights
of the States The Speech in its imperfect form, has
been much complimented by both political friends
and adversaries. In volume by Marsh, styled
"Daniel Webster and his contemporaries" liberal
extracts are given from it. The author remarks that
Mr.. Grundy, of Tennessee was principally relied
on by the administration to carry the bill through
the Senate, that "canvassing the Senate, he found
among his political associates there, some unchange
ably opposed to the principles and recommendations
of the b-Mangum and Brown of North-Caro-
lima, Pondexter Of Mississippi, Tyler of Virginia,
Bib of Kentucky all able debaters; and, hitherto,
most prominent of the Democratic party, threatened
Al
of argument and skill in strategy they could COM
mand. Executive Establishments and Executive me-
mace awaited naught agains. their purpose. They
entrenched themselves within their States rights
principles, as Wellington at Torres Vedras."

MISCELLANY.
The CID Jew Brokers Secret
A BEAUTIFUL STORY.

A BEAUTIFUL STORY.
He looked like an old clothesman, but
he was only broker-a broker with a
bad character, and what that must have
been, when it was bad for a broker, We
leave to imagination to define. He was
reputcd the hardest man cf his trade
and as meE OF that trade are popularity
supposed to be mere electoral machines,
worked by fints, not hearts, a supremacy
Of fintness must have left him fearful
conglomeraton. He was a wither,d old
man now, almost double with age and
rheumatism, with a hooked nose, and
light brown eyes, red around the llds, aud
a strange mixture of surliness and sus-
piciou IN his face, He looked a cross
between a msstif and weasel, which he
was in character as well as oountenance.
No one had good word to say to him
The publican at the corner was sure there
was something queer i'll man who did
not take an honest G ass like the rest, and
the baker looked down on him because
he ate seconds" on principle. If a
distress was to be puC on miles round the
ueighborhood, they prayed that it might
not be old Joe Mappin, of Elolborn
Buildings One woman said she'd as
leave have the Emperor of Russia as him; !;
her daughter said she'd liefer. The very
children werelafraid of him and screamed
if he came near them, unless they were
impudent and mocked him. But to the
little ones he was the District Boyle !;
and " old Joe Mappin " stood in Holborn
Buildings, soaring the riotous small fry
of the cutters, for the "black man OF
more civilized nurseries.
Everybody said the man had secret.
Some that he was a coiner, and others
that he had committed murder, and went
to look at the body or grave. Others
again said he had mad wife locked up
in the garret, on straw; but none knew
exactly what they thought, excepting the
broad fact that there was secret some
how; a0d of course, if belonging to him,
a disgraceful ope; &" he could have moth
inc but villainy to conceal, said the ln-
spector to Policemen K, 50.
WHY the report arose of his having
secret in his life was, because evening al
fer evening, he was sean stealing IN the
dusk from his garret along Holhorn tow

Don't Fret.

"Was there ever such a piece of work
as this, Aunt Carrie" said Lima in great
disgust. Il have sewed this sleeve in,
wrong side out and took such pains
with it too-It is too bad" she contin-
ued, throwing the work from her.
Il am really sorry, Lima, but [ would
not waste any time in fretting. You
could have ripped out good many stitch
es by this time just as soon as you
see clearly how and where you have made
an error, set right to work and mend it.
There is my little knife, dear, it will take
but a few minutes to undo your work,
then you can start fair again"
In very little time the seam was tax
en- out, and Lima looked up more pleas
antly
There, Auntic, I am just where I set
out once more fiji had not been for
you," she said laughing, II should not
have begun to take it out this half hour
yet. 1t seemed an endless task.
"Lina, did you ever hear your mother
speak of Miss Phiiena, the seamstress
in this village in its primitive DAYS ?"
Eyes, indeed, and | have laughed over
her queer sayings more than once. Fa-
ther often quotes her."
