A Specimen OF Spanish Cruelty.

A most touching instance of hero
ism, and one of the most atracious
acts of cruelty, the truth of which is
vouched for by the most respectable
authority, occurred during the Col
umbia struggle for independence.
The Spanish General Morillo, the
most blood-thirsty aud treacherous
tool of the Spanish King, was created
Count of Cartegena and Marquis Dc
la Pueria for service which rather
entitle him to that of butcher or
haDgman.
While seated in his tent one day,
be saw a young boy before him
drowned iu tears. The chief de-
manded of him for what purpose he
was there.
The child replied that he had
come to beg the life of his father,
then a prisoner n Morillo's camp.
"What can you do to save your
father 2" asked the General.
81 can do but little, but what l can
shall be done"
Morlllo selzed the little fellow 3
ear, and said:
Would you suffer your ear to be
taken off TO procure your fathers
life ~
81 certainly would" was the un.
daunted reply.
The boy wept, but did not resist
while the barbarous order was exc.
cuted
"Would you lose your other ear
rather than fail of your purpose 2"
was the next question.
81 have suffered much, but for my
father l can suffer STILL" was the
answer of the noble boy.
The other ear was taken off piece
meal, without finchipg on the part
of the heroic boy.
"And now goI" exclaimed Morilo,
untouched by his sublime courage !:
"the father of such a boy should
die"
La the presence Of his agonized
and vainly-suffering son, the pstriot>
ic father was executed.
Never did life picture exhibit
such truthful lights and shades in
national character such deep,
treacherous vlllainy-such lofty, en-
thusiastic heroIsm

Why is ftp

The actual cost of sewing ma
chine, WORK and material, is sl2.
Sewing machine manufactures are
leagued to make as pay $40 for it.
The same machine in London, or
Berlin, or Paris, after having paid
freight across the Atlantic, sells for
s32.
Mr.. Mccormick, the reaping ma.
chine man, testifies that the actual
cost of one OF his machines is fifty
dollars. They sell in the market to
the farmers for $3.50 A threshing
machine. as Pitts or RusselIs, can be
built for 500 We have TO pay from
5000 to 500 for them.
These immense profits are served
by means of combination between
the manufactures. The farmers pay
from forty FIVE to one hundred per
cent. tariff on the implements he
uses. while the manufacturer "in the
ring" gets his supplies free of all du-
ty, and a bonus. by tariff on all he
makes. To Illustrate: If a farmer
wants a reaper he has to pay $3.50 fol
it. But for the protection assures
the manufacturers, it could be bought
for SIS. If he wants hoe, be payI
a dollar for it. There is profit OF
it of fifty cents. So on through tb'
list.
The only practical remedy is tina
adopted by the Patrons of Husbsn
dry. They propose to put an end t.
the legislation that discriminate
against them, and they propose to d.
il by adopting the same means b.
which it has been secured-they ar
organizing.-W Wisconsin Changers.

SCIENCE OF SUCCESS. If you want
to get on in life. in the highest and
best sense, the first requisite is homes.
~. During the fifteen years that l
have been in public life | have seen
men come up and go down, and
have found that the honest man is
the only one who succeeds in the
long run-Sooner or later deviltry goes
under. ltyou want to get on in life
you must be honest and true; but
you must be pluckv as we'll. How
few there are who stand up and
fight il out with their teeth griped
close together Be like the Indian
rubber ball, which rebounds the
higher the harder it is thrown down.
That's manhood that's pluck. You
must not believe in luck believe in
yourself. There may be such a
thing as luck lying around loose in
some corner of nature; but the
chances are ten thousand to one
that it will not fall to you. Make
an intelligent plan and work for i,
with an honest purpose, q manly
heart, aud will of nerve; of deter.
minatiop, of grit.--HepUorth.

UPSET AND sMAsHuP.-Sunday even.
ing while two gentlemen were returning
to this city from West Alexander in q
two-horse buggy, they met with rather
serious casualty. The night was very
dark, and about q mile and half from
West Alexander the horses ran into pile
Of stones on the pike, upsetting the buggy
and precipitstipg one of the horses over an
embankment q distance Of some thirty
feet. The other horse ran of, and was
found yesterday about two miles from the
scene Of the accident. The horse that fell
afterwards wandered about mile away
and dropped dead. The buggy was pretty
well smashed up, but neither Of the gen.
tlemen were hurt. Both horses and buggy
were owned by Robert Luke, ESQ.,, the
well known livery man in this city.
