The Vinegar Story.
BY A PASTOR.

Mr.. c. has one of the largest
orchards in the parish, and is so con
scientious that his cider is all made in
to vinegar. But his vinegar was made
to sell not to give away. When his
daughter sickened and died I went
there almost every day, about five
miles off. When she. died she had a
great funeral, and I sat up most of the
night to write funeral sermon. I
called the next day. Then a few days
after 1 went, and thought I would car
ry my vinegar jug, which just then
happened to be empty. The jug was
filed. 1 did not like to take it away
without offering to pay. and so 1 said,
as meekly as possible, what shall I
pay you?" "Well," said my good
Parishioner, I generally charge TWEEN
five cents a gallon, but seeing as how
you have been so kind to me in troub-
le, ETC., 1 won't charge you but TWEEN
ty cents" At this time had eleven
children and was living on salary of
5000 per annum.

The Danville (Va.) Times reports
a speech Of Hon. Thomas S. FIournOy,
in that city, as follows:
lie urged the adoption by the
whites of the reconstruction measures
imposed by Congress, and said there
was no pusillanirnity in submitting to
the terms of the conqutror. He had, at
an early period in the contest, entered
the Confederate service as a Captain
! or Colonel of cavalry, and his sons
were in the war. Shortly after Lees
surrender he took the oath to be true
to the Union, and had in good faith
observed its letter and spirit to this
hour, but Notwithstanding his sur
rOundings he had not lost one iota of
his self-respect, his manhood, or feel
ing Of personal independence. Mr..
FIOUrnOy seemed to regard it as of the
most vital importance to speedy recon
structiOn, and the happiness and pros
perity of the State, to reconstruct on
the platform of the Republican party
He recommends a charitable construc-
ton of the motives of party men, and
that even Mr.. Hunnicut was entitled
to his opinions that in the great
work of harmonizing all the discor-
dant feeling and element of the
United States, strong and abusive Ian
guage should be avoided. His stric-
lures, however, on the Democratic
party, North, might be considered
somewhat at variance with the great
principle of toleration he so eloquent
Iy enforced; but even as to this, he
only argued their inability to aid the
South, and their desertiOn in the hour
of need; and indulged in no vitupera-
ton OF abusive epithets.

Cholera among the Indians.

ALetter from Fort Gibson tells of
the ravages of the cholera there as fol-
lows: sIn one instance an entire fam
lily of ten persons died within the
short space of forty-eight hours from
the time the first one was taken sick.
These Creeks have become greatly de-
moralized through fear, and the mo-
ment any member of a household is
attacked by cholera, kin-folks seek
their own safety by precipitate flight,
and leave the sick one to meet the ur1-
certain issue single-handed and as best
he may. Thus, in several instances
where death has interviewed, the body
has remained without burial for many
days, and on one occasion the bodies
of two children who had died after de
sertion were eaten up or torn into
pieces partially by wild hogs, which
are abundant in all this region of eOun-

The Flag.

On the morning Of the 4th of July
an American flag was thrown across
the street from the market-house to
the opposite corner Of the street. The
street cars approached-a lady there
in saw the ''hatefuI thing" Curling
her nose skyward, she said "Driv-
er, are you going under that flag ?"
"Well, ma'am," he answered, q don't
see how am to get around it" "You
can't take me under it. Let me out.
Stop the other side" Out she got,
and trudged around for half a block
to avoid the beautiful flag. What a
queen of love and beauty she would
make for tournament = Flakes Gal

Equality.


A citizen says: 81 wouldn't object to
the negrO's Uoting merely, but can
not endure it for negro to be made
my land especially my equal
in a social point of view"
But let it be remembered that the
privilege of UOtiag does not make any
man any other mans equal. ~,
The grossly ignorant man, who can
not read, or write his own name, votes,
but does that put him on an equality
with the intelligent man? OF course
not. ......
The thief votes, but does that put
him on a social equality with the hon
est man? Certainly aOt. Il i Il
So the negro may vote, but that
will not put him on a social equality
with white men.
All men are not equal in every re-
spect, and they never VIII become so,
but all men are equal in political rights.
It is this, and only this, that the Re
publican party contends for TLeba-
non Star.
