The Ia sale Press first uttered the false

OF having published pinful lie, was natu.

B eauties Of the Tariff.

John \. Logan, IL. I. Cook, and other pro-
minent radicals are trying to make the peo.
pie believe that the niquitous tariff enacted
by the republican party, and voted for by
Cook, Logan, and all the radical candidates
for reelection, is fair and just Read this:
The people who are paying vast amounts into
the pockets Of the monopois.s each year, under
the influence Of the present tariff, should give
the following facts. which appear in the Cincn-
natl Commerctaf, (Radcal,) their careful consid-
Grafton. The articles mentioned below pay du-
ties a. follows:
Gold and silver chains, - per cent.
Diamonds, 70 per cent.
Mahogany wood, free.
Guitars 30 per cent,
Jewelry, % per cent,
Laces, 30 per cent.
Pearls free.
Rubies, 10 per cent
Violins, 80 per cent.
Gold rings, % per cent.
Bracelets, % per cert.
Corals free
Tortos shells, free.
Emeralds, 10 per cent
Canoes, 10 per cent.
Mosaics 10 per cent
Coins, free.
Oil paintings. 10 per cent.
Marble statuary, 10 per cent.
These are the luxuries-the articles used al.
most exclusively by the rich. Now look at the
articles used by the mass of the people, and mark
the difference:
Salt, l2j per cent.
Knives and cutlery, 80 per cent
Shoes, 30 per cent.
Iron nails, 80 per cent.
Coal, 30 per cent.
sSpades and shovels, As per cent
Blankets so to - per cent.
Hatchets, 40 per cent.
Sole leather 30 per cent
Copper sheeting, 45 pet cent.
Glassware, 40 FER cent.
Linen fabrics, 40 per cent
Clothing, so to IS per cent.
Hoes, as per cent,
Flannels, 80 to - per cent.
Paper, % per cent.
Iron fabries. a to s. per cent
Cloves, 50 per cent
Pam-lcat hats, 40 per cent.
Hosiery, 40 TO 10 per cent
These are the rates which the people are re.
CURED to pay in gold upon the necessaries of life.
Laboring men, compare them with tho duties
paid on jewelry diamonds, l,ces, etc, tho luxu-
ries purchased by the wealthy, and mark the
discrim inaton in favor of the other.

SO many years attended. But when the con
Guiding sentence was uttered, you might have
supposed that he, who moment before was
melted TO tears at the grief his daughter had
been suddenly transformed to stone. He sat
pale as marble, his features perfectly rigid, the
tears still on his cheeks, and his noble figure
erect and motionless o statue. Alarmed
beyepd measure at an effect which she could
not-have anticipated, Pauline, with a wild
shrek of terror threw herself upon her knees
before her father. "Speak to me, dearest,
dearest father" she exclaimed "speak to your
unhappy daughter"
Bending forward, he gently raised her, and
seated her beside him on sofa, and pressing
said, "Ah. Pauline, could have borne any
thing but this. You know not the pang you
have caused me. Would to God-yes, Pauline,
would to God-I had laid your cold and life
less form in the grave beside her whose per-
feet image You are. But enough, you must
now leave me. / need not tell you to keep
your own counsel, and breath this awful tale
to none. Leave me-"
Pauline had never, on the most trifing, oc-
casion, disobeyed her father, When he spoke,
she never made objection, but cheerfully Hid
just as'he wished: She did so now in this most
trying case, but there was grave solemnity
and decision lin his tone which he had never
before used to her, aud it sank deep into her
heart. What would she not have given if the

sorrowfnily entered the retirement of her own

tears and prayers, begged of q merciful God ]

When the door was closed, Mr.. Seward, with
agitated steps, paced the library the intensity
of his thoughts urged him to and fro with q
speed of which he was wholly unconscious
then at intervals bursting from his lips in
audible expressions:
For what u trial am i reserved. Anything

ALAC SOMEO a LIME.
There comes time when we grow old,
And like a sunse4 down the sea.
EiOpe gradual, and the night winds cold
Come whispering sad and chilingiy;
And locks are gray
AS winters day;
And eyes of saddest blue behold
The leaves all weary drift away,
The lips of faded coral say
There Comes q time when we grow old.
There comes a time when Joyous hearts.
Which leaped as leaps the laughing main;
Are dead to all save memory
~ A prisoner in his dungeon chain
And dawn of day
Hath passed away,
The moan hath into darkness rolled,
And blythe embers wan and gray,
hear voice in whisper say,
There comes q time when we grow old.
There comes a time when manhood's prime
. Is shroudet in the mfst of years, -=-
And beauty, fading like q dream,
Hath passed away in slleuttears
And then how dark!
But OH the spark
That kindled youth to hues of gold,
Still burns with clear and steady ray,
And fond affections, lingering. say, ~
There comes a time when we grow old.
There comes a time when laughing Spring
And golden Summer cease to he,
And we put on the Autumn robe
To tread the last deciivity;
But now the slope,
With rosy Hope,
Beyond the sunset we behold,
Another dawn with fairer light.
While watchers whisper through the night,
There Is time when we grow old.

Editor Of the Ie1egraph:-The
statement published by you, some
six weeks ago, relative to Mr..
Julius Ennemoser, Assessor OF In
ternal Revenue, and his PROPOSE
ton to receive a bride as a mem
Der Of the Police Jury, was speci-
fical1y correct, as I can affirm,
being the party to whom he made
the proposition published by you.
At that time I held the lease of
the Monroe Ferry, and was anx-
ious to liqnidate one of my notes
as lessor, by curbing the side
walks Of the Public Square. In
order to obtain the consent Of the
Police Jury, I attended its SEES
sion, and i'll person urged upon
that body the reasons which I
thought would influence its men,
bers to give me the contract
Just after formally explaining
my wishes to the body upon one
occasion, I noticed Mr.. Ennemo-
ser, who is q member of the Po-
lice Jury, beckoning me toward
him. In his anxiety to attract
my attention, [ noticed that he
came near falling over on the
desk in front of him. Approach
ing him, he asked me in an audi
BILE whisper, evil you curb my
lot, if / have an ordinance passed
giving you that contract?'' Ire
Elected Il moment upon the size
of his lot, and although convinced
it was large fee, I reluctantly
replied, Eyes; but don't speak so
loudly, some one will hear you"
These, sir, are almost the iden-
teal words that passed between

very well knows, notwithstand-

| WCapt. G. w. McCranie, edi-
tor of the OUACHITA TELEGRAPH,
thinks some farther explanation
due him in reference to the charge
that he had squandered other peo-
PIES money in the vain pursuit Of
office. We only referred to the
charge, on the say-so of those
claiming to be his political friends,
and have since stated that SO far
as we were concerned no insinua-
ton Of dishonor Or dishonesty
was intended. We have good
reason now to believe the charge
wholly falsc-and shall certainly
be thoroughly convinced Of this,
out with a vindication. If the
charge is not true, Capt. Nc
Cranie has been slandered-mean-
ly slandered; and it those who
made it to us are as candid as we
arc in such things they will eth
er withdraw or substantiate it.
We regret we ever alluded to the
matter, and hereby cleanse our
columns of the same. Those who
made the charge to us will re-
member it, and they can now
come forth and vindicate the
same, or silently submit to be
branded as caluminators.- [Ho-
mer Had.
All the explanation we have
ever asked of the editor of the
Iliad is the proof Of the charge he
originally made, to which we had
and still have a right perfectly
clear. 1t is improper, therefore,
in Mr.. Blackburn to "cleanse'' his
columns of his own assertions I'M
til he has either made them good,
Or acknowledges himself ''con-
vinced'' that they are false. Upon
this we still insist, and we trust
our claim will be speedily recon
nize1.

This gentleman has become sole
proprietor of the large establish

control Of Chamberlain & Feibel-

expect to see the business of the
house largely increased by the
concentration, in a single propri-
etor, of it's excellent business f:,-
cilities, and predict for Capt. G.
the full measure of prosperity due
to the large degree Of energy and
business tact he has so conspicu-

s.s.eesa . ,sasase Of Gases.
The National Union Repub1i-
es cans OF Mississippi, under the
leadership of Judge Dent, the
q Presidents brother-in-law, have
been worse than distanced. How
far they are in the minority. we
do not know. The only question
is as to the extent of their inglo-
- rfous defeat--a question about
which we feel no very great in
80 tcrest, although we should have
preferred the triumph of a Con-
-ssrvative Republican to that of
III a,Radical, even though both stood
81 upon the same platform, as they
did in our sister State.
g.. The overwhelming majorities
saobtained by the Radicals in near
agaly every county in Mississippi,
ss4'being on the side they are, are of
< course perfectly honest, legal and
= binding. Not even the suspicion
= Of dishonesty or frand attaches
aasto the result which proclaims such
AASan unequaled success. All was
~ fair, peaceable, legal and proper
The quietest and most''unexcep-
:. tionable poll ever had in the State!
Nothing can possibly be said

ssOrs his sabordinates, against the
emissaries of the Radical party
.sesnothing Of violence, fraud or in
sss4imidation; - and notwithstand-
ksxing the fact there were thousands
sssupon thousands of legal voters
who did not vote, the result is all
the same-it was the best con-
sss Quoted election ever held in the
Estate!
fsss' But take the case of Louisiana
"a the November election of 1865.
sas where the success of the Democ-
-~sracy, though not so overwhelm-
ling and complete, was as decisive
-'aas that Of the Radicals in Missis-
sippi, and where there was full
: vote polled, New Orleans except
ed. and what have the Radicals
gasaiddenunciatory of that election?
Perhaps the objection they have
urged with the greatest contuma-
icy against the fairness of that
election is the very fact that
Louisiana went so decidedly in
-&favor of the Democrats. The
= larger the majority, the stronger
the evidence of fraud and intimi-
dation. Apply this test to the
Mississippi election just held, and
we have as strong case of Radi-
cal violence and intimidation as
1t is possible to make out-and.
1t can be applied with the same
: regard for truth and facts as it
: has, or can be done to the cleo
ton in Louisiana. The ablest ex-
ponent of the Radical faith could
not say more for his party than
that both elections are peas of the
same pod.

- In tho course of an article
strongly denunciative of the fair
ness Of the November election of
1868, at which time the Demo-

editor of the Homer Had thus
relieves our fears upon a very en-
barrassing point connected with a
new election:.
And lest some may assume to
question our motives, we will
state in this connection, most en-
phatically, that if new election
is ordered, we will not be a can
didate. Mr.. McCranie and Mr..
