Speech OF Mr. Dawes upon Republican
Extravaganza.

One of the most remarka ble speech.
cs OF tho Session, is that of Mr.. Dawes.
ono Of the ablest members Of the Re-
publican party in Congress, and chair
man OF the House Committee on Ap-
preparations. lie accuses his partyYof
violating their pledges of retrench-
mcnt and economy, made in the last
PRESIDENTIAL election, and of going
beyond the extravaganza which they
charged upon the administration of
Andrew johnson. The very first cs-
Inmates of General Grants administra-
t,on' ne shows, are $4,000, 900, moro
than they were in any year of Andrew
Johnson's; and the heads of denart-
ments are now proposing to spcnd
next year near $4,000, 900 moro than
was appropriated for the present
year.
The New York World proposes a
remedy for all this in reduction Of
tho taxes. But We would suppose as
the power is equally in Congress. that
1t would DC more natural and equally
effective, to cut down the appropria.
tions. Hear the World:
"The only sure way to cure such
reckless extravaganza is by reduc:
tion of tho taxes. With an overflow
ing Treasury, there will never be any
end to prodigal and wasteful schemes.
The dishonest schemcrs understand
tho conditions of success; and the
chief bamboozlcment of the last eight
or nine months has taken the form of a
device oforreconciling thc.pcoplc. to high
taxes. Unless u great deal of money
GENES into the Treasury, the plumbers
cannot get q great deal out of it. They
have accordingly sung loud pmans,
and made them rcsound from end to
end of the country, over Secretary
boutwclrs marvellous reductions
of the public debt. The i'm
po:tancc Of paying off the national
debt within short period has been
the great topic Of tho thieves and
dcmagogues. All that they really
care Tor is to have the taxes kept up
so that there will be no want of pro-
vcnder in the public crib. The very
iirst opportunity, since the election,
is seized to divert fifty millions year
OF surplus taxes from the payment of;
the debt into prodigal expenditures.
The thanks of the country are due to
Mr.. Dawes for his free exposure and.
mani y rcbukcs.

Boys, Read This.

~ lew years ago large drug firm
IN a city advertised for boy. Next
day the store was thronged with an
plicants, among them queer LOOKING
littlo fellow, accompanied by q wo.
man who proved to be his aunt in
lieu of faithless parents, by whom ho
had been abandoned. Looking at
this little waif the merchant iii the
store promptly said "Can't tako him
places all full; besides, he is too small"
Il know he is SMALL" said the woman,
"but he is willing and faithful" There
was a twinkle in the boys eye that
made the merchant think again. A
partner i'll the firm volunteered to re-
mark that he "did not sec what they
wanted of such boy-hc wasn't big
ger than pint Of cider" But after
consultation the boy was set to work.
a few days later call was made on
tho boys in the store for some one to
to stay all night. The prompt res
ponse of the little fellow contrastcd
well with the reluctance of others.
In the middle Of tho night the mer-
chant looked in to sec if all was right
IN the store, and presently discover
cd his youthful 1rotcge busy scissorinr
labels. 'What are yon doing ?" said
he. 81 did not tell you to work
nights" "I know you did not tell
me so, but thought L mi ght as well
DC doing something" In tho morn
ing tho cashier got orders to "doublc
that boys wages, for he IS williny."
Only a few weeks elapsed before a
show of wild 'baasts passed through
tho streets, and, very naturally. all
hands i'll the store rushed TO witness
the spectacle. A thief saw his oppor-
lanity, and entered at the rear door
to seize something, but in twinllling
found himself firmly clutchcd by the
dimln"tivc clerk aforesaid, and aft
struggle was captured. Not only
was Il robbery. prevented, but valua-
die articles taken from other stores
were recovered. When asked by the
merchant why he staic' behind to
watch when others quit their work,
the reply was, "You told ne never
to leave the store when others were
absent, and | thought Id stay" Or
ders were Immediately given once
more: "Doublc that boys wages; hi
is willing and JaihJni." To-day that
boy IS getting salary Of $500, and
next January will become q member
Of the firm. Young men initiate his

BILL1NGs says: The effeminate man
is weak poultico. He is cross be-

nobody can tell why. He is as harm
less as cents worth of epruce gum,

AWFUL FATE OF A YOUNG MAN.
A young man while intoxicated, fell
into the machinery at the rolling
mill at Stranton, Pa. The engineer
heard the grinding of the bones, and
supposing tho cogs were mashed,
stopped the engine Immediately. AS
he did SO, the blood like fine rain,
came drizzling down with little pieces
Of flesh. The men saw something
flying through the Dir, which they
thought was cloth from the engine,
but which was the unknown being,
thrown somo forty feet from the
wheel, landing on the top of a furnace
where it was found broiling, burning
and disfgured. The namo Of the un-
fortunate young man was James F..
Vesey. 81 Z"

Whipper and Wright.

The correspondent Of the Charles
ton Nrms. gives the followioe
pen and ink sketch of tho two
most prominent candidates for the Of
fice OF Associate Judge. 1t will be
noticed that Cain takes the sjdo of
Wright:
To-day the Missionary Record (of
which Cain, the "rcligous Senator" or
"Senator No. 9, from Charleston" is
editor was circulated, and one of it's
editorials upon "Tho Judgcship-
Wh:pper, Wright, or who," created
considerable comment among tho leg
islators, and especially poor Whip
pcr's friends, because Cain unhcsita-
tlngly asserts that Wright is entitled
to the justiceship, and contends that
"hIpper "has been amply rewarded
by the party. lie is the only colorcd
man who has received the distinguish.
ed honor Of Il position worth three
thousand five hundred dollars q wear.
as co'llticr Of the laws of the State.
Ilc has been honorcd with promi-
nent place in all the Legislative affairs
of this State. lie Will Gil the oflicc
OF COLLIER OF The laws for four years.
which will give him fourteen thous-
and dollars. If he is not satisfied
with that, then he is very unrcason-
able man. We understand that he
wants to hold on to both positions,
coulter and Judge"
Wright IS Il colorcd man who lisps
and is always in good humor. lie
speaks more perhaps, than any three
Of the colorcd Senators, and generally
very clearly. Ills in influence with
tho colorcd LEGISLATORS is very great.
He states that he was born in Penn

Lancaster University, New York.

Snsluchanna County: in PENNSYLVANIA
and little over 4 year at Wilkes

mittcd to the bar in SuSquchanna
County, being The first colorcd man
admitted to practice in Pennsylvania.
Alter the "Cnion came in down
South, he was made by General How
ard legal adviser Of the freedmen Of
South Carolina.
William Whirpcr is also q colored
man. While popular, he docs not en-
JOY SO EiSh n degree OF popularity as
his rival !; yet his chances for The as
soci"te justireship arc perhaps il little
better than Wright's-doub,lcss be-
cause he is q member of.thc House
which Of course on ':joint ballot" has
an immense majority, and the parti-
san feelings Of the members will make
many Of them vote for him, who 9TH

CHARLOTTE, CNLUMBIA AND Au-
GUsTA RAILRoAD.-Wc had the pleas.
ure of meeting, yesterday, with the
genial and able President of the Char
lotte, Columbia and Augusta Rail
road, Col. William Johnston, in the
city on business connected with his
road. Colonel Johnston ranks with
the ablest railroad men in the country,
and keeps fully up with tho political,
financial and industrial questions per-
tanning to the situation. His road is
now enjoying high degree of pros
perity in the large increase Of busi-
ness over its entire line; within the
past few months, the receipts from
freights and travel having augmented
fully 100 per cent. Tho future pros
poets Of this important link in the
great and popular: short passenger
route Northward, are daily brighton
ing as evideL led by the increasing
demands of travel: It's trains, of
three, four and five passenger cars, ar
rive and depart daily, fillod with pas
songers. The bulk. of tho travel is
now Westward, and is making heavy
demands upon the rolling stock of the
road, which has latterly been largely
increased, and requires still further
additions of engines and cars to meet
the growing demands of, business,
alike from travel and freights.-Au.
