Canton mentioned that ''a constable of Washing g
ton tp. made mistake and arrested pump be-
longing 10 q widow woman"
That papers gave no names being rather coy OF
the same and quite barren of particulars. 1t ought
to have stated that this little the part OF
the constable did not hurt him with the radical
party, for he reel ected last April by 80 ma
iority, when the year before he got but IL.
The widow found and identified the pump IN
this constable's barn and repIevied it. Prior to
this exposure there had been more or less steal
ing in the neighborhood: wheat, corn and other
things, but we glad to say; that since the
pump was restored, the pilfering has stopped.
A little exposure stopped this grab game

1t is now reported that John Coss, who
was arrested on Saturday last for mur-
der committed ten years ago, was a soldier
in the army of the Potomac, where he
served out his full time and re-enlisted
as a veteran. The following statement is
made concerning the murder Coss went
to a dance at Ammon's house, at Kirk
wood. Ammon was bullying the visitors,
and proclaiming he was ''the best man in
the house" Coss requested him not TO
make trouble IN the presence of ladies,
and thus very sharp words came to pass
between them. Ammon uttered some
rebel sentiment, and Coss shot him.

Kitchen Ware Clean and Bright.
Every housewife of neat and tiny hab-

the tin, copper and iron ware of her kitch-

Dor can make them. A pride in this di-
rection is commendable, and always meets
the smiling approval of the "tyrant man"
who pays the household bills. Remem-
Der that Sopolio is the only thing or
earth that will make an old tarnished

the quickest and easiest thing IN the
world to keep every utensil IN high

Ruin Of southern Common Schools.

Rnin of Southern Common Schools
The leaders Of the Republican party
have made great boasts of their support of
educational interests and that the party
was pledged TO favor and advance the
cause of education eyerywhere. The Raj
eigh IN. c. Standard illustrates how that
party favors education IN the South. 1t
says, "Our university is dead, our com
mon schools almost dead SO far from
resuscitauing they have blasted, SO far
from extending the blessings of education
they have curtailed Them" In South
Carolina the Republicans and carpet. .bag7
gers whom the Administration sustains
have squandereG and stolen the common
school funds, so that there are but few
schools in operation. In poor Louisiana
they have abolished the free school fund"
This is the way the Republican party
practises its professions of being IN favor
Of education. 1t is like the thief being in
favor Of patronizing merchants by steal
ing their goods World. .-Ert
