State Franchise.

We understand, says the West Tennessee
WAtg of the 28th ult, that letter has been
received in this city from our distinguished
Representative in the Legislature, in which
we are graciously informed that the " con-
duct of the rebels, before and since the elec
ton, has been such, that no steps viii be
taken by that body, during the present ses-
sion, looking to a modification of the Fran
chise law"
Lay on Macduf, etc Our only hope of
relief, in this regard, is in the Supreme
Court of the United States This high tri-
bunaI viii, soon after its meeting in Decem-
Der, pass upon the legality or iIlegality of
this iniquitous measure.
Medlin's charge, or rather complaint,
against the disfranchised people of the State,
reminds US of that wicked little cuss, who
delivered his spleen as follows:
" Nal Oh Ma Nal"
What my SON.
Make Bill hush-every time I hit him
on the head with the mallet he hollers."
TREMENDOUS PERoRATIoN.-A stump
speaker thus scatters himself around in an.
swer to an opponent:
Build a worm fence around a supply OF
summer weather; skim the clouds from the
sky with a teaspoon; catch thunderbolt in
a bladder; break hurricane to harness
ground sluice an earthquake; bake hell in
an ice house Iasso an avalanche; pin a
diaper on the crater of an active volcano
hive all the stars in nail keg; hang the
ocean on grape vine to dry; put the sky
to soak in gourd; unbuckle the belly band
of eternity, ard paste " to let on the sur
and moon; but never sir-never for mo
ment sir, delude yourself with the idea thai
any ticket Of your party can beat ours.
The Bolivar bulletin. [volume] (Bolivar, Hardeman County, Tenn.) 1865-1888, 1868-12-05

quick, elastic step, quite in contrast with
his formerly easy, leisurelY movements.
Good morning, Mr.. Bilkins. I under
stood that you wanted to buy some butter
tubs and cider barrels. / think have some
that will just suit you"
"a Whose make are they p asked the old
man, as, opening the gate, he paused by the
wagon.
Mine" replied Luke, with an air of
pardOnable pride.
Mr.. BIlkins examined them one by one
They'll do" he said, coolly, as he set
down the last one of the lot What viii We
take for them 2
What I asked you for six months ago
to-day-your daughter, sir
The roguish twinkle in the old man s eyes
broadened into a smile
-" You've got the right metal IN you, after
all, he cried. " Come in lad-come in I
shouldn't wonder if we made trade after
all
Nothing 10th, Luke obeyed
Molly r bawled Mr.. Bilkins, thrusting
his head into the kitchen door
Molly tripped out into the entry. The
round white arms were barred above the ell
bows and bore traces of the -four she had
been sitting. Her dress was neat gingham,
over which was tied blue checked apron
but she looked as winning and lovely as she
always did wherever she was found
She blushed and blushed and smiled as
she saw Luke, and then, turning her eyes
upon her father, waited dutifully to hear
what he had to say.
The old man regarded his daughter for &
moment with a quizzical look
" Moll, this young man-mayhap you've
seen Kim before-has brought me lot of
tubs and barrels, all of his own make-a
right good article too He asks a pretty
steep price for EN-, but if you are willing
to give 1t, well and good and hark We, my
girl, what ever bargain you make your
father viii ratify"
As Mr.. Bilkins said this he considerably
stepped out of the room, and we will follow
his example But the kind OF bargain the
young people made can be readily con-
jectured by the speedy wedding that fol
lowed.
Luke Jordan turned his attention to the
study of medicine of which profession he
became a useful and influential member
but every year, on the anniversary of his
marriage, he delights his motherin-lew by
some specimens Of the handicrat by which
he won what he declares to be the best and
dearest wife in the world.
