CLEAR AS MUD.-The following from a
recent speech by Hon. Henry T. Blow,
at st. Louis, is going the rounds of the
papers, endorsed as "tho position of the
sound, sensible, conservative men of
all parties on the tariff question:"
"a stable tariff, not a high tariff, not
tariff too low for revenue, but a just
tariff, and above al. give it to us in a sta
bic form; let the capitalist rest upon
something substantial, let the laborer
contemplate his future without fear, and
this age and our intelligence demands
this and nothing less will be GRANTEES BY
all parties, and that soOn."
For clearness and point, We never saw
this equalled, except once by an old to.
per, when giving his formula for max.
ing his favorite drink: "YOu take your
whisky, and your water, and your sugsr,
not too much and not too little Of either,
but just enough of all; you must not
have it too hot nor too cold, but just
warm enough; then give it stir by a
simple turn Of the wrist; cock your
head to one side, shut one eye-and il

hog, and I'm nowhere p Waite Cloud

OLD PRoPHECIEs.-A correspondent

Il prophecy uttered by St. Carno in 1542,
in regard to Paris Of France: +" The adj
ministrati"n of the kingdom of France
will be 50 blinded that they shall leave it
without defenders. The hand of God
shall extend itself over them and over all
the rich all the mobiles shall be deprived
of their estate and dignity; division
shall spring up in the church of God /;
and there shall be two husbands, the one
true and the other adulterOus. The &C.

there shall be great carnage, and As great
a prOfusiOn of blood as in the days of the
Gentle. The Universal church and the
whole world shall deplore the loss of a
mOsG celebrated city-the capital and mis-
trsm Of France. The affairs of the temple
shall be destroyed, the holy virgins, out.
ragged, shall fly from their seats and the
whole church shall be stripped of her
temporal god; but at length the black

The earliest receIlections of youth are
associated tenderly with this month, and
who does not remember the May parties
at which he or che, dressed in bright
array, exchanged kisses with other hap.
py playmaaes and companions and
danced merrily around the Maypole.
Happily for us Of the West, no terrible
moving is consummated on the first of
May. The tender grass and peeping
flowers, and swings beneath the giant
oaks, and jolly rides to silvan spots, in
many colored' buses, and songs in chorus
and splendid lunches on the creek bank
and fish-poles, and pretty shrieks from
the big girls when they draw up careful
" some nasty, Shiny root instead Of q
fish, and hunting Johnny-Jump-ups in
out-of-the-way places, and losing shoes
while crossing the pole over the brook,
and finding cast-off snake-skins, and::get-
ting awfnlly scared, and then gathering
up the debris of the picnic meal, slowing
mOieties OF cake in baskets for fear OF
hunger, arranging jelly-glasses not to
break, discarding old greasy biscuits,
with butter dabs all over their brown
tops, and running helter-skelter to the
vehicle to get good seats, and astonishing
the home folks in the brick-built city
with our really rural appearance, seeing
that we have boughs of trees stuck on
top of our vehicles, and sparce crowns
of wild flowers encircling the heads of
our pretty girls, while others wear the
boys hats, and laugh these are the
pleasures of May-day to us, when we
picnic. In cities, the jolly, head-achy,
"Bock" rules, and police courts tremblc
with patrons Of the German pOtentate.
But-May among the Romans was
sacred to: Apollo, and almost every day
was q festival. On the 9th, 18th and
18th days of the month WAS celebrated
the festival of the iemuTid in memory Of
the dead, and consequently it was be-
lieved that marriages contracted in this
month would soon result fatally. LOv-
ers will make note of this.) Traces OF
the same superstition still exist, as in
the French pro:erb: Noce= de Mai noces
de mort. From the ancient Flordlid, or
festival in honor Of Flora, celebrated
from April 18th to May I'd, is perhaps
derived the medieval and modern Gus
tom of observing May lst with festive
and floral rites. May-day festivities
arc of COMMON reference in English
poetry.

Weekly Cotton Report.

New YORK, July 9.-The cotton move
ment shows slight increase over last week
in receipts. The exports are unusually
small, even for the season, the total being
under 5000 bales. Receipts at all ports for
the week are Is, 46S bales, against Is, 1877 last
week, u, 664 the previous week, and %, ,046
three weeks since. The total receipts since
September are 3,929.l60 bales, against
1885, COZ for the corresponding period Of the
previous year. The exports from all ports
for the week are 1914 bales, against IS, 1875
for the same week last year. The total ex-
ports for the expired portion of the cotton
year are 3,069, ,346 bales, against 2,099, ,5I3 for
the same time last year.
The stock at all points is 1S0,5l4 bales,
against l54, ,062 for the same time last year.
The stocks at interior towns are II ,954
bales, against 35,033 last year. The stock
in Liverpool is 7l5,000 bales, against 900
last year. The American cotton afloat for
Great Britain is l03, 900 bales, against 1000
last year. The Indian cotton aloat for
Europe is 52l $50 bales, against 40l $40 last
year. The weather reports from the South
during the week were more favorable to the
growing plant Less rain has fallen, and
the weather in many sections has been
warm and sultry.
Cotton has been quiet and firm, with a
slight advance at the close, on spot cotton,
and considerable improvement in future
contracts During the week the announce
ment was made from Washington that a
supplementary report from the Agricultural
Bureau would show further decline in the
yield from the previous estimate from the
same source. This had but little effect, as
the reports from the South during the week
were more favorable than for many weeks
past. The sales for the week reached
$4,000 bales, of which $4,000 bales were for
future delivery, and Il, 600 bales on the spot
and to arrive. Of the spot cotton exporters
took about HOO bales, spinners about 1900
and spectators 1900 bales.

Picuic of Ba, ard Lodge No. 4.

Sunday was the day appointed for the
picnic of Bayard Lodge No. 4, Knights of
Pythias, to be held at the Fair Grounds.
The very heavy rain which took place in
the morning had q necessary influence upon
the number of visitors, vet toward evening
there could not have been less than twenty
five hundred people ON the ground. But as
the rain had made the track too heavy for
the races and other sports in the pro
gramme, it was resolved TO postpone the
picnic, except the base ball games. This
did not, however, prevent the joyous dance
from going merrily on, and as there was
splendid band employed, and plenty of
dancers present, the enjoyment, at any rate
in the terpsichorean department, was as
great as if the picnic had not been post
poned until the sixth day of August next,
the only difference being that it did not con-
tinue so late.
The only matters to record are the games
of base ball, of which there were two-one
between the Crescents and Washingtons,
which did not create much excitement, the
Crescents winning, 81 TO TO-
The second game, between the Lone Stars
and the Excelsiors, evidently caused much
expectation among lovers of the game, as
both clubs stand so high as base ball players
that it was difficult to foretell the result of
the game.
In the first three innings the game was
too close for scoring on either side; in the
fourth inning the Lone Stars made four
runs, and at the end of the eighth score the
result was five to four in favor of the Ex-
celsiOrs. During the ninth score strata
gem brought the game to an end. There
was necessity tor the umpire to decide
respecting certain ball, and his decision
would have been in favor of the Lone Stars
had it not afterward reversed. There was
considerable feeling caused by this, and the
Excelsiors expressed an intention to make
it a matter of protest to the committee of
the Bayard Lodge picnic against awarding
the prize to the Lone Stars in consequence
of the reversed decision of the umpire. At
any rate, the Excelsiors refused TO continue.
The following is the score by innings:

The Lynched Father.

Martin Meard, the farmer, who lately
lived near Gilmore, Iroquois county, Hi
ncis, who stripped his little son, laid him
naked on a hot stove, and beat him so un-
mercifully that he died, after he had secreted
the body, advertised that his boy had run
away. Suspicion arising, search was made,
the body found, and the murderer arrested
and put IN jail at Walseka. In the evening
at seven o'clock he was taken from the jail
and hung by an incensed mob of three hun
dred men, followed by one thousand men,
women and children. Meard gave the
Masonic signal of distress, which was not
responded to, and he renounced the craft
He was given opportunity to speak and
pray, and confessed his guilt in an ad dress
to the crowd. He refused the benefit of
prayer by a Protestant clergyman, and
begged for mercy.

Assaulted by Roughs.

WASHINGTON July 5.-The Oldest Inhab-
itants' Association, under escort of the
Washington Light Infantry, having visited
Mount Vernon yesterday landed at Mar
shall Hall, on the Maryland side of the Po-
tomac, for the purpose of taking the up
bound boat for Washington. The party
had scarcely landed before a number of
roughs made vigorous attack on colored
servant accompanying the Washington
party, some of whom interfered for his pro
lection, and several were wounded W it'll
stones thrown by the roughs.
The infantry were disposed to make an
attack on the assailants, but listened to the
restraining counsel of their commander,
Colonel William G. Moore. But for this
there doubtless would have been much
blood spilled. The roughs finally dispersed.

Encannpmcnt at Oakland.

Notwithstanding the disheartening rain
on Sunday morning, the encampment of
Company E, Captain Maurice, and Com
pany H, Captain Rey, was decided sue
cess. These companies form part of the
Second Regiment, commanded by Colonel
James Lewis, of the Louisiana State
Militia.
AT an early hour on Sunday morning the
companies started from their arsenal. cor
ner of Common and Rampant streets, and,
parading through several of the principal
streets, passed the REPUBLICAN office,
bringing arms to a carry as they passed,
while Kelly's splendid band poured forth a
musical salute. The companies were es-
corted by Company A, under command of
Captain Harrison. They were well ac-
coutred in their new uniforms, and made a
fine military appearance.
AT the encampment ground there had
been very sufficient arrangements made
and everything went off satisfactorily A
game of base ball was played between the
Blue Stockings and the Ironclad clubs, re-
sulting in favor of the latter, being five
innings, and the Ironclads scoring fifteen to
the Blue Stockings scoring ten; prize silver
ball. A pony race took place, one mile
heat, the entries being Rather Ratcatcher
and Coquette, Ratcatcher winning by two
seconds. The foot race of one mile was
won by Private Jacob Dennis, of Company
A. time five minutes two seconds; prize, a
walking cane.
The principal amusement was the dane
ing, which commenced after dress parade,
and was kept up till a late hour.
The second days sports consisted princi-
pally of pony race and base ball match.
For the former three entries were made,
the race being for two-mile heats. The first
heat was won by Coquette, Eatcatcher
coming in second and Rather third; time
two minutes. The second heat was also
won by Coquette, the others being nowhere;
time one minute and forty-fve seconds;
prize, a riding whip.
The base ball game was played between
the Athletic and Sicilian clubs, the former
being the winner. Each had five innings,
the Athletics scoring 90 and the Sielians Ia.
Prize model bat.
The sports concluded with dress parade,
after which was ball, which lasted till
morning.
Among the visitors we noticed Governor
Dunn, Recorder Houghton, Senator Pinch
back, Coroner Creagh, Senator Antoine,
Major Isabelle, Colonel Raynal Captain
Boswell, r. B. Baquie, and others.
The military efficiency displayed by the
companies on the ground in exercises and
and parade deserves the highest commenda-
ton.
