to them the full measure that they mete out to

lies our professions of patiotrism and devotion
to the cause Of tue South, and stutifies lis in
the eyes of our enemy and of the world. Let
our prisoners feel that they are regarded as

loathing and bitter hate which the unholy
cause in which they are enlisted so naturally
inspires. Let no moro such attentions be
shown to prisoners whom the fate Of war may

Cramps, Spasms, wrenching pains attending

from these obnoxious drugs is induced only from

Rlood-hounds.

In former days, the bloodhound was distin-
liarties of four long legs, long head, long ears,
a very long tail, dark color, and cruel ferocl-
ty of nature. In our day, however, the genus
is varied. Some scions of the stock have but
two legs and resemble their four-legged brothers
only in their length of ears and their cruelty OF
disposition 1t would naturally be supposed
that these biped blood-hounds, having keen
scent for human gore, would seek the battlefield
and in the trench ard the rife-pt delight to
snuff the smoking current that gushes from the
severed veins Of dying rebels. But not So
They content themselves by sticking close to
their kennel, or like the iackal which follows the
lion at distance and preys on his spoil, they
hang around the rear Of the army and pounce
upon such plunder as falls in their way. They
are, however, frequently found behind the mer-
chants counter, at the lawyers desk and (horri-
BILE to relateD in the preachers pulpit. The
mercantile hound generally has sleek, oily
appearance, having fattened upon the blood of
the war in the shape of high prices of such ar
tcles as the necessities of the people compel
them to purchase His voice is for more blood
and his ullulations to that effect, are loud and
ceaseless. The legal dog is one who usually
has relatives who hold comfortable offices cre-
ated by the war. He barks furiously at every
thing that threatens to shorten the official life
of his kinsmen and he sets up his own opinion
most dogmatically against that of statesmen
and iurists But the clerical bloodhound is
cadaverous looking beast, whose hollow-hearted
ness looks out of his sunken eyes, notwithstand-
ing the spectacles which sometimes hide those
bypocritic orbs low-bred, crouching, crawl

slaves, with the ink whence flow the lucubra-
tions that are to enlighten the readers Of Abo-
lition literature. This animal is generally

yelps and means most piteously over the sup
posed sufferings of the black man, but when
his brother blood-hounds hunt down white men
in their own homes, because they prefer not to
imbrue their hands in white mems blood, he
barks most joyfullY his encouragement and ap-

A Bid for "War Democrats"

The Niggerhead organ in its last issue sheds
some Of its usual crocodile tears over the remov-
al of some the ofice-holders about the Court
House, saying that they are prescribed on ac-
count of being "War Democrats" Its hypo-
critic weeping over this, to it, sad calamity, is
only o bid to the disappointed and disaffected
to bow down and worship the Niger. There
are no "War Democrats neither are there
any esPeacc Democrats" The Constitution is
the plat form of the Democracy and those who
stand on it are Democrats without any qualii-
cation. A man who must have handle to
his Democracy, is not Democrat. but some
thing else. As to the appointments, the Dem

themselves who merit the patronage which the
law gives them to dispeosc, and they also know

who did not. Moreover they desp'se hypocrite,

fattened upon Democratic favor, afterward, un-
der the guise of friendship, assassin like, stab

A New Stove.

Col. John Hafer, of this place has invented,
and obtained patent for, an improved coal
stove, which, we think, is destined to come into
general use wherever heat is desideratum and
economy of fuel an object 1t is common
coal-stove with the insertion of hollow cone
within the stove, above the fire, the cone being
closed at the top and open at the bottom, and
fixed at just sufficient distance from the main
body OF the stove to permit the pipe to ''draw."
This cone arrests the heat tending upward and
conveys it to the inside surface of the stove.
thus causing it to radiate horizontally instead
of passing up the pipe. The amount of fuel
saved by this heating apparatus is about fifty
per cent, according to our estimation. This is
quite an item, in these days of high prices of
coal. Col Hafer has also invented heat ra-
dating drum, which acts on the same principle.
We have had one in use in our office for wear
and find it all that is claimed for it. The fol-
lowing letter from one of the best civil engin
GERS in the country, fully attests the usefulness
of Col. Hafer's invention:
