ORNDoRsF's ELEPHANT. = Professor
Jim Orndorff, of the famous Interna-
tional Saloon, Virginia, conceived the
brilliant idea that to have the winning
numbers in the big lottery telegraphed
through from san Francisco as fast as
they were drawn, and displayed in his
saloon, would prove q great and very
profitable attraction. So ut consider
able expense he made the necessary
arrangement with the telegraph COM
pany, thus quietly getting ahead of all
others in the saloon business; and the
genial Professor wore q co~untenance
beaming with warm, complacent
smiles last evening, rs he a~nticipatingly
thought Of the bright quarters and
halves that would flow into his money
drawer In exchange for those choice
beverages everybody knows he keeps.
This morning, as fast rs the winning
numbers came to him, he hung them
up in front Of the big looking-glass
behind the bar, aud SURF enough the
anticipated rush did set in. Men
crowded in from all quarters; they
put their breasts to the bar, and every
body crowded forward with eyes kept
firmly set upon the magic figures.
Not u soul thought of drinking except
with their eyes. There they struggled,
with up-turned faces, for an hour o.
so, becoming lore and more frantic
with each fresh arrival Of the telegraph
boy, and not n drink could the dis
mayed Professor sell them. Even
thirsty outsiders could not get In.
That huge overflowing crowd was
worse than the lice in Egypt-it was 4
regular Salt Lake g~raSsliopper pesti-
lence. The Professor found DC, had the
husest kind Of an elephant upon his
hands, and the only way he got rid of
that Improbable crowd was to take in
his sign-post up the numbers outside
the building.
PROGRESS OF HE..DRAwING.-Judg-
ing from present progress, the draw
ing of the big lottery will be concluded
before midnight. We have 4 ticket for
sale cheap.

..CoDDLING THE FUEEDuEy,,

Ii is notorious that the Federal and
Southern State governments have been
run very largely for the past five years in
the interest Of the negro. The ''poor
whites have been permitted to struggle
for The support of their families without
governmental assistance. We are graft
fed TO see so influential Radical organ
as the New York Times call the attention
Of its party to the excess to which the
practice of "coddling" the freedmen has
been carried. In a very recent article
that journal says:
a broad spirit OF philanthropy, and
true regard for the permanent welfare of
the freedmen, are in opposition to the
spirit of coddling which occasionally
crops out in Congress. All special legis-
latiOn in their behall-beyond the protec-
ton of their equal rights in all things be-
fore the LAWS a mistaken kindness. Il
pauperizes and degrades them by par
alyzing the truest and highest incentive to
effort. As such we regard the bill re-
Gently introduced in Congress to distribute
the public lands in the Southern States to
the negro in sections of forty acres. The
insuperable objection to the bill lies in its
exclusive provision for negroes. We do
not seriously object to the free donation
OF such small tracts for hOmesteads, under
proper restrictions against speculation
although we incline to the opinion that
sale at q uniform rate of a dollar and
quarter an acre would be preferable-but
we would make no limitation as to color

and 50 are the emigrants from other couu-
tries
BY charging the scheme to this extent,
the best interests of the freedmen would
not only be more effectuilly served, but
the solution of the great problem of
Southern development would be expe-
dited by multiplying the number of land
propretors, and ultimately breaking mp
the great estates out of which grew that
spirit of arisiocracy and caste which has
been the bane of Southern civilization.
Hence we say, "Stop coddling the ne
gr0es.

Diseases that progress rapidly to crisis are not

its, and distaste for exertion, are its ordinary
symptoms, aud they should be promptly met by
tonic treatment The best invigorant and exhila-
rant that can be administered in case of this kind
is Hostester's Stomach Ditters. The stimulating
principle of the preparation rouses the dormant
energies Of the system, and the strengthening and
regulating properties give permanent and health
full impulse 10 the vital forces thus brought into
play. The falling appetite is re-awakened, the
process of digestion and assimilation is quick

that contributes to the nourishment of the body
updergoes salutary change. By these means the
repair of the physical structure is effected and its
health and vigor restored Ia no class Of diseases
has the beneficent operation of the Bitters been

HON. A.OP NsCHOLSON.

Judge Nicholson is suggested as suit
able candidate for the Supreme Bench.
The distinguished ability of Judge Mich
olson is too well known for us to add a
word of endorsement Yet we may say
that his election would not only give sat
isfaction in Tennessee, but would at once
cause our Supreme Bench to be honored
in every State of the Union. We are in
formed that there was a general desire
among the delegates of the late Constitu-
tional Convention, of which Judge Mich
olson was the most eminent member, that
he should becomes candidate for Supreme
Judge, and that in obedience to that de-
sire and the solicitation of very many of
the members of the bar he has consented
to become a candidate in the event of the
ratification of the proposed Constitution.

REyELs, the negro Senator from Mis-
sissippi, has presented 10 the United
States Senate protest signed by eighteen
or twenty Of the negro members Of the
Georgia Legislature, against the adoption
of the Bingham amendment 10 the Geor-
gia bill, on the ground that the Democrats
would secure The control OF the State
under that bill, and thus place them at the
mercy Of their 'encmics. - The Cincin-
natl gazette CRadicaD does not see much
force in this appeal to the Radical sympa-
thies of the Senate. That paper says:
"The Bingham amendment provides
that the terms Of the Legislature and of
the State officers of Georgia shall not be
prolonged beyond their constitutional pc

The Louisville Commercial (Radical)
under the above caption has, in its issue
of the 16ib, the following editorial:
They are exciting themselves very an
necessarily down in Tennessee about a
provision in the Constitution soon to be
submitted to the people, which abrogates
all ordinances contained in any former
Constitution or schedule thereto" This re-
peals an ordinance in the schedule to the
Constitution Of 1865 which declares null
ard void all acts and resolutions passed
after May 8, 1861, authorizing the issue
of State bonds or notes of the Bank of
Tennessee, and the people who are already
oppressed by the burden of debt heaped
upon them by the extravagant issue of

fear that they are 10 be called on to pay
the bonds issued under the rebel admins

souls in peace. They are not in the least
danger of having it to pay. The Four
tenth Amendment to the Constitution of
the United States prescribes that ''neither
the United States or any State shall as
sumo or pay any debt or obligation incur
red in instruction or rebellion against the
United States. " If any body had an ak
to grind, at the expense of the people of
Tennessee, by inserting the little repeating
clause in the new Constitution, the Four
tenth Amendment is in his way, and the
grindstone won't turn for him.
Whatever is right and JUS, will in the
end commend itself to the good opinion

THE Cincinnati Gazette exposes the in
consistency of some of its Radical con-
tcmporarics after the following fashion:
"Some journals have gushcd with ad-
miration at the colored magnanimity of
Senator Rcvcls, in that his filst Senatorial
act-next, we suppose, to the customary
one of drawing an installmcnt of his pay
and his stationery-was to present a me
mortal for the removal of all political
disabilities from the white Rebels of Mis-
sissippi. But we have to ask how the
same organs can admire proposition Of
general amnesty from a Colored Senator as
most touching magnanimity, while on the
part Of white they deem it a sign Of
odious unfaithiulncss Why should the
same thing look lovely in a colorcd
Senator, and hateful in a white! If it is

THAT political prisoners should receive
the degrading punishment and torture of
the lash, in any country claiming to be
civilized, is atrocious, yet a case of this
kind has occurred in British jail within
few weeks. The Freeman s Journal,
one OF the lea(SRg newspapers in Dublin,
Ireland, stated few days ago, that with
in the last four weeks O'Donovan Rosa,
lately elected member of Parliament Tor
Tipperary, Ireland, but not allowed to
take his seat because he is a Fenian sen
fenced to Imprisonment for life by Brit
ish court, having been guilty of what his
jailer calls " INSTRUMENTATION, was
stripped, tied up, and treated to ten lashes
of the cato -nine-tails, laid on by a burly
turnkey. When the Home Secretary was
questioned in the House of Commons as to
the correctness of this report, he replied
that he knew nothing of it, but presumed
that O'Donoyan Rosa had not received
corporal punishment since 1868. 1t is be-
lieved that the Home Secretary was aware
of this outrage, and that he evaded an
swering. 1t is stated as an indisputable
fact that not long ago O'Donovan Rosa,

the time of his getting the last ten lashes
this ill-used Fenian actually was de .facto

THERE appears to be a great pressure in
New York TO sell real estate. A letter of
the 18th from that city says:
"There is a marked pressure, just now,
20 sell real estate. Houses of almost
every description in the upper part of the
city, as web as in Brooklyn, can be had
on very easy terms. In many cases sales
have been effected by the purchaser pay
ing down only a years rent This would
seem to indicate that holders have no
confidence in maintaining existing prices.
In jersey City there is great deal of pro
perry advertised, without finding solitary
bidder, thus far. The effect of this state
of things on rents, as May-day draws
near, is anXiously looked for. "

THE ultra Radicals demand that the

for the reason that its incorporation in
the bill has greatly pleased the people OF
Georgia who are not Radicals. This is a
specimen of the appeals that are made to
the Senate to influence the action of that
