"Wait Until | Curl My Hairs

A Salem, alabama, preacher has, ac-
cording to a Southern exchange, been
telling his congregation strange yarn.
We hope he preached "to the marines"
but his audience was colored, and lie
himself the hue ofebony. The negro
is credulous:
He said that young man, living in
one of the many towns that he had Wis
tied, asked young lady to accompany
him to church on Sabbath day. She
replied pettishly, that her hair had not
been curled, and that she would 90 to
the bad place with her eyes wide open
before she would venture to church
with her hair uncurled. Aud she Wen,
not, at that time; but tile next Sunday,
having gotten her curls adjusted, she
ventured out and listened patiently to
the sermon until it's close. When the
congregation had been dismissed she
moved towards the door, bnt fell, on
reaching the portal, with her head to
the pulpit. As she fell her clothing
cracked like Chinese crackers explo-
ding, and on examining her face it was
found that her eyelids were completely
gone. She was dead, but it was i'm
possible to close her eyes, because of
the loss Of the lids. When her friends
crowded around to raise her up they
found themselves unable to move her.
The sequel showed that it took twelve
strong men to lit her from the floor
and twelve to put her in her coffin.
1t also required the united exertions of
twelve ministers to preach her funeral
an exceedingly heavy job, doubtless.
When the last sad rites were being OBJ
served, the lid of the coffin suddenly
raised of it's own accord, and some.
thing "about the size of black cat,
but which was not a black cat. leaped
out. And as this creature leaped from
the coffin to the floor it cried aloud to
the petrifed audience, "Wait wait!
wait! until l curl my HART" Gas l
expect to answer in the day of judg-
ment," said the sable divine. 81 saw
this scene with my own eyes, and it
was lust as have told itin

Is 1T THE PEOPLES PARTY E!

We'were mislea Tuesday night by
the careless arrangements and pune
tuation Of telegram into making
the Baton Rouge Convention formal
" adopt the name of Peoples Par
ty." The construction we placed on
the dispatch was fortified by the tone
OF all previous proceedings, by the
notorious sentiment of at least four
tfths of the body, and by the very
wording Of the preamble as
well as the resolutions following.
Nevertheless, as no such declaration
appears to have been explicitly made,
we wish to correct that part of our
article, and so leave the case exactly
as it came from the Convention.
lac question as to name may now
recur with all its original force, and
perhaps in a more unfortunate shape
than before, since the tribunal which
had authority to decide it saw fit to
dissolve without rendering any YER
dict. The preamble to the platform
announced by the Convention reads:
We the white people of Louisiana en-
braeing the Democratic party, the Con-
sentative party, the White Mans party,
the Liberal party, the Reform party,
anu all others opposed to the Kellogg
usurpation, do solemnly resolve and
declare, etc.
language would of itself sufficiently
indicate, if indeed it did not abso-
lutely prescribe, the name to be ap-
piled to the party. Nevertheless, no
formal expression has been had on
the subject, and, as we have already
seen this made the pretext for giving
the party a name not contemplated
Or even justified by the language of
the platform, we fear the neglect will
prove fruitful Of Inconvenience and
regret.
We are fully aware that the spon>
taneous voice of the assembly, the
tacit understanding of every member
thereof, and the logical deductions of
the preamble and platform, all COM
bine to prove that the name of PEG
pies Party is the one accepted and
ratified on every hand. No delegate
to Baton Rouge, whatever be his par
tisan procliyities, will question the
justice of this inference, or deny that
it stands without contradiction in
fact; and no one who has intelligent
ly viewed the action of the Colfven-
ton, and honestly resolved to abide
by its clearly-detined expressions, will
seek to evade the obligations involved
in that inference.
Still, as the chief business of the
Baton Rouge assembly was to finally
and authoritatively decide this ques-
ton; as nearly, if not quite all, the
Significance attached to it's proceed
ings by the people Of the State CEN
tered there as strongly as in tn c
terms Of the platform itself, it is to
be regretted that we are left with
only a constructive verdict on one
absorbing issue of the hour.-{N. 0,

proper regard from mankind for the
feelings of others, whether or no,
bound individually by ties ,nf friend
ship. All can claim suffrage uude,
this head, from the king to the beg
gar. Every one has some feeling-a
personal pride in his being, ifnothns
more; and men are bound ty the laws
OF God and man to respect these emo
tons. A man possessing the merest
instincts of gentleman, however deal
he may be to the laws of society at
large, will resent, with unforgivins
Vengeance, the slightest imputation
rejecting on his honor. With high
and low this theory has been proved.
Even the basest portion Of mankind
are proud to know that their word. if
once given in sincerity, is elied upon.
Persons Of the most aba ,oned char
acter will treasure a CO piiment to
their integrity or honor, o1e Of the
pleasantest things occnr z in their
checkered lives. "Hon among
thieves" even, is com VI ilustra
ton of this portion of q 'gnment.
And now, when even he dress of
society manifest at least :. ,ntn regard
for the sensibilities of OF rs, what a
startling contrast arises ven we con-
slider that some of their errors, both
IN culture, mind and talaIts, seem to
revel in the pleasure { denouncing
their brother men, pubIaly and pri-
vately, without regard to c,nrtesy, and
often from the worst ri motives,-

them to be kindly pointed ont by we'll
disposed brother editors. This shows
an inferior disposition, and desire to
indulge in petty quarrels, and all
bigh-minded persons contpme it and
it's partisans. All noble Hearted and
weil-meaning editors, having a pride
IN their own reputation as well as
that of their journal, scorn to reply to
these personal attacks, trusting to
their own reputation for the Issue.
These editors constitute tie foremost
lights in the amateur ranks. They are
looked up TO, followed, connselled, and
admired, simply because their "acts
are displayed to the sight of al! men,"
and are OF known and proved reliance
and integrity.
We dislike such petty warfare every

How They Finally Got Married.

One long summer afternoon there came
to Mr.. Davidson's the most curious speci-
men of an old bachelor the world ever
heard Of. He was old, gray, wrinkled
and odd. He hated old women, especial
ly old maids, and wasn't afraid to say so.
He and Aunt Patty had it hot whenever
chance drew them together; yet still he
came, and ft was noticed that Aunt Patty
took unusual pains with her dress when
ever he was expected.
One day the contest waged unusually
strong, and Aunt Patty left in disgust
and went out into the garden.
"That bear!" she muttered to herself,
as she stopped to gather flower which
attracted her attention
"What did you run for 2" said gruh
voice behind her.
ITO get rid Of you.
You didn't do it, did your"
"No; you are worse than burdock
burr.
"You won't get rid Of me, either. -"
~ won't. eh 7"
"Only in one way"
"And that?''
Marry me. !"
"What US two old fools get married ?
What would people say?'
That's nothing to us. Come, say yes
or no; I'm in hurry"
"Well, no, then.
"very we'll; good bye, ! shant come

"Yes or no p
