Sunshine and Shadow

In every life there is alternately sun
shine and shadow. You very rarely see
alife entirely filled with sunshine. There
is time during the life of every person,
when cloud will darken the sunniest
path. But we can in great degree les
sen these shadows by persistent will to
overcome them, and make " sunshine out
Of the shadoWs." In some instances
those dark shadows are hard to dispel
When all earthly happiness is smothered
or, forever, obliterated in a proud pas
sionate soul, by some great calamity :;
then the soul sinks into dispair, and life s
greyest shadows darken and hover
around it--all the sunshine seems turned
into the deepest shadow. When the
bright star of hope, by which they have
steered their frail bark, has sunk beneath
the horizon; then, unless the person be
the possessor of good deal OF aoiU and
determination, the frail craft sinks forev-
er beneath the merciless waves of de
spare; and all around is wrapt in Lethe's S
gloom. But it's said faith and persist
ency are life's architects, and doubt and
despair bury all under the ruin of any
endeayor." And those darkest shadows
may be overcome by stern peristency.
BY giving we receive" and if we add
sunshine to the lives of others, and less
EN- their sorrows, we will be happy from
the fact of having made them SO. If by
one little act we can cast ray of sun
shine into a life that is darkened by
shadows, we not only reflect the sunshine
on ourselves, but gain greater reward.
We can lessen our own sorrows by bury
ing them in oblivion, and make sunshine
out of the shadows by always looking
on the bright side of the picture.

Two MoRE UNfoRTUNArEs. Yesterday
w. P. Coolidge. sheriff, Judge, clerk and
general manager OF election in Clark
county, in connection with Tankersly,
Timmons L Co., was arrested by the
United States marshal, under an indict-
ment found against him by the late Uni.
ted States grand jury, and released on a
bond of $500. Judge Mcclure, Colonel
Henry Page and Colonel j. NJ. Lewis are
his bondsmen.
Another of the same stripe, Geo. A.
Wilkins, late registrar, assessor and gen.
eral head centre of Claytonism in Union
county, who deprived about thousand
qualified electors from exercising that
right, was brought to the city under ar
rest, and turned over to the marshal. His
bond is fixed at $4,000, but as yet he has
been unable to giveit. He ought to send
for Clayton L. r. Gazette.
And still they come! On Sunday eve.
ming, Mr. Nichols, sheriff Of Hot Spring
county, arrived with Job Prichard, Geo
Prichard. George W. Thompson, Zeba
Belden, Tom Bass, and Jerry Gray, ar.
rested on Saturday, as We understood, on

grand jury for completely in the election

DRouTH IN CALIFORNIA The Califor-
MIA papers complain of a severe drouth
in that State caused by the scanty fall of
winter rains. A large number Of cattle
and sheep have been Sl;ven into the
mountains to find past, ge, and some
herds are being driven to Nevada These
will be saved, but " thousands of cattle" !"
says the San Francisco Bulletin, 4" will be
left to take their chances on the dry
plains, where there is hardly enough feed
to keep them from starvation. These,
without other care, will die, before the
next rainy season. Next spring, the stock
of cattle in California will be less by some
hundreds ofthousands than it was year
ago. "-St. Louis Republican.
GEORGIA MANUFACTURERS The Lang.
ley Manufacturing company, whose mills
are located eight miles from Augusta,
Georgia, on the South Carolina railroad
began operations on the 29th of March
last, and are now in successful operation,

S5 yards to the pound. Their machine
ry is Of the best quality; they have four
thousand spindles and one hundred
looms at work, now, and these will be in
creased to nine thousand six hundred
spindes and three hundred looms. The
working capital is 100000.
The Bath paper mills, located near the

ample water-power and the favorable
opinion of the southern press they are

this District, and if appearance are Of
any value in judging future events, GER
tainly the prospect for electing Demo
crat was good, with three Radicals in the
field; moreover, if the Fayetteville Dem
ocrat tells the truth, that Edwards was
elected by Democratic votes, there can
be no doubt on the subject But it seems
an idea prevailed that it was possible to
blend fire and water, but the conclusion
that has taken place demonstrates the alb
surdity of that notion. 1t is not to be
wondered at that we were deceived by
Honest john certainly no man could
make fairer promises than he did, but
alas, the first thing We find this honest
man" doing, is turning and turning to
give the world notion of endless tor
ments and perpetual motion" Yes, we
find Honest john" not standing up
for the rights of his constituents, but on
the contrary ga tinkcring slave-maker,
mending old chains with God and mans
adherence for his gains" Certainly
the Devil himself did not get greater
fall than this Honest, honest lago, y
will get next election. His Sponsor,
Brother sparks, seems to believe that his
explanation will be satisfactory. In my
opinion when he makes it, Bro. Sparks
will be ready to esclaim: :" wish he
would explain his explanation.
Your friend, A DEMOCRAT.
