Mr.. Webster, in one of his little speeches
cut in the county during the past week,
spoke Of the election in Pennsylvania. We
do not give the exact words he used, but in
substance, this is what he said: 1.-THE Re-
publicans did not erpect to carry Pennsylva-
mia, but the Democrats did. The election
over, we find that the party Of hate carried
the state by IS, 900 majority. Now, don't
you see there were great frauds committed?''
The fact that we didn't carry the state as
we expected to, is sufficient proof that the Re-
publicans stuffed the ballot-box." It is said
that his audience evidently could not see the
frauds, for they kept dropping out during
the delivery OF the speech, and at it's close
there was not corpora's guard left.

ROBERT BURNS.
Ta a;y. msasr: g: s"s n THs' Fos


The Hundred and Thirteenth An
nfversnry OF the hirtn OF I" roet'
In the year 1859. over a century ago,
was born in Ayrshire. on the banks Of
the Doom, Scotland, child Of song,
named Robert Burns. Receiving linn
tied education, he advanced himself in
literature by becoming an inveterate
reader. The History Of the Bible, Ad-
olson Vision Of Mira and other stand
ard productions became his studies.
Poetry soon terminated in his imsgina-
tive mind. Stories Of devils, fairies,
ghosts, brownies, kelpies, dead lights,
wraiths, dragons, ETC., so common 10
Scotland at that time, became his chief
delight Poverty was Burns inheri-
lance, and in order to defray his
passage to the Island of Jamaica,
TO which island he had received
an appointment as overseer, he publish
ed his first volume Of poems, which con-
tanned, The Cottars Saturday Night, the
Vision and other wonderful productions.
The work ran through several editions,
and the obscure poet became at once
famous. Invited to Edinburgh in l7s6,
the poet made the acquaintance OF
Blair the preacher, Robertson the his
torian, Dr. Blackjack, Adam Ferguson,
Henry Mckenzie, Dugald Stewart, and
other men not unknown to fame in the
literary world. From that time Burns
became the popular idol. Frances JEFF
frey, then boy, who afterwards became
the great power of the Edinburgh Re-
view, struck by the stalwart appearance
of Burns, as he strobe through the
streets of Aud Reekie," gazed
after him in silent wonder.
A shopkeeper standing by remarked, as
he tapped young Jeffrey on the shoulder,
AYE, laddie, ye may weel look at that
mon; he is Robert Burns" The poet
breathed his last, and his poetic soul
went floating into futurity at the age Of
thirty-seven. He left behind him a
literary casket filed with pearls beyond
price. The Scotch dialect, in which his
grand poems are wrapped, prevents
many from approaching the wonderful
pathos which pervades these efforts Of
genius. Who can read without admira-
ton the "Cottar's Saturday Night.
Mary in Heaven" Holy Willie's
Prayer" Holy Fair" A mans man
for a that" Tam O'Shanter," Hal
loween," Man was made to mourn"
and that trumpet-toned song, Scots
wha haze wi Wallace bled." The world
has read Burns flights of genius and
admired them; hence, the celebration OF
the anniversary of the natal day of the
great bard
Tonight festivals will be held in the
principal cities of the American CONT
nent. The St. Andrews society OF
Memphis will hold festival at the Wal
dram block, upon which occasion grand
supper and ball will be enjoyed by the
sons and daughters of Scotland residing
in our city, and the American admirers
of poet who, though not unco guild
and rigidlY righteous, nevertheless
stands in the front rank among the in
spired minds Of the last century.

The non-acceptance of the lease Of the
Memphis and Charleston railroad, proposed
by Colonel Scott, and his rejection Of the
modified lease, is the principal subject Of
conversation in monetary circles to-day. The
effect has been to reduce the stock Of the
Charleston road from 40 to SSc. at which price
there are small lots upon the market, and 1t
would be difficult matter indeed to get an
offer of over 35e. Money matters are without
important change. The large amount Of cot
ton carried by many of our merchants makes
the demand for loans Il little more active, but
rates are easy at 10 per cent, and the banks
amply supplied with funds TO meet all de-
mands.
Exchange is in demand and rates are steady
at &c discount and par selling.
Gold in New York is steady at 100. Deal
ers here buy at l0S1E.
Local securities. to-day, are less active.
