For the Fayette ville Observer.
The Curpet-BaE&er.

A thicving Radical came down South,
\ sneaking convict known,
And he gazed around from State 70 State
For money not his own.
Where Office Seekers yelled and raved,
Where Negro lovers go,
This thieving Yankee found "place"
In the region hot below.
Early and late he robbed the poor,
No ease nor rest had he;
Until he stole his way to hell
Along with L. 5. G.

IR An exchange says the
effects Of the election are being
felt everywhere south Of us
An Alabama correspondent
writes that real estate which
a month ago could not have
commanded 10 per cent. Of its
actual cost, to-day is considered
desirable and valuable property.
The spirit of the people, rid
den from oppression and all
causes of political complaint,
have been rcgenerated, and the
day is buoyant with brightest
hopes for the future prosperit y
of the State. Emigration is
wanted, and the natural resour-
ces of Alabama suggest and
and demand development, and
if left alone the people of Ala.
bama will do their duty, from
the results of which they neec
not feel Inundated by the side
Of some Other already prosper
Gus sister Southern States.

u a strange turn i'll the
remarkable political tide has
thrown 10 the surface a cOlored
Democratic member OF Con-
-rress from South Carolina. 1t
appears that Rainey, the pres
ent Republican member from
that State, took with him
to Washington a colored man
named Lee, and had him APP
pointed on the Capitol police
force. When Rainey was re-
nominated, this summer: he sent
for Lee to go to South Carolina
and help him among his colored
friends. Lee went down, look
ed over the situation, saw the
dissatisfaction existing among
his own people, and decI-
dcd to run against Rainey.
The Democrats took him up,
and elected him, and now, We
suppose, Rainey will drift into
Lees old place on the Capitol
police force.

Corn.


The Chattanooga Commercial
Of Sunday says a lot of new corn,
very dry, for milling purposes,
was sold on the wharf Friday
afternoon fer 81 cents. This is
probably higher than will be
rnaiutained
The Jonesboro' Herald and
Tribune says; The coru crop OF
,his country is perhaps us large
az any made for several years. II
all the surplus grain Of our coun'
" was put upon the market ii
would make most nf our cltlz ms
easy in money matters
The -1thens Post says: A
friend at Washington writes thai
the hog crop in Rhea will moi
reach half the usual number, and
that there are hardly hogs enough
in this county to make bacon fol
home consumption. Corn viii
reach about half crop. The PEG
ble have sown wider breadth Ct
wheat than in former years, and
put it in well. A gentleman of
this place who was on the Ten
nessee liver, near Half Moor
Island, last week, reports corn II
the ear as selling at 60 cents PEI
bushal, with an upward tendency
The Cleveland Banner says, 1
small lot of new corn in the ear
was sold in that place last weeE
for SO cents per bushel cash.

HEALTH OF CITIES. The popular notion
that the healthfulness of cities depends on
their elevation is questioned, and the doubt is
sustained by statistics. For instance, the aver
age elevation of New York is 80 feet, OF Phil,
adephia the same, of St. Louis 475 feet, oil
Chicago 5S5 feet, of Washington IS feet OF
Boston 90 feet, and of Baltimore 60 feet,
Vital statistics show that of the cities named
those having the highest elevations
and St. Louis-are more unhealthy than any
other cities 10 the Union, excepting New Or-
leans. The natural inference, therefore, Is that
the health of cities does not depend so much
upon elevation as upon their physical surround
ings and the rigid enforcement Of proper sanl-
tarv regulations.

[From Mai. Ben. G. Truman's book, "Scmi-
Tropical Californian
Mr.. Prudent Beaudry is not n specu-
lator. On the contrary, he is u cool
headed, clearheaded man of businQss,
who possesses at once the faculty of
forecasting the future to very con
siderable extent, in conjunction with
the nerve and the means to back his
judgment when he makes up his mind
that an Investment is likely to be
profitable. Two instances in his ca
reer as a real estate dealer go to prove
this. a few years ago he purchased n
tract of hill land in the northeast part
of the city, ut Shcriff's sale, for some
thing less than $500. He was laughed
at 10y the wiseacres, who asserted their
belief that no house would ever be
built on the tract. He has sold just
about one-third of the tract and real
ized $1,000 for it. There are about
forty residences on the portion sold.
He purchased in the neighborhood of
Az acres in the western part nf the city
for about s 500, and has realized S30,-
vue Terrace. left, which might possi-
bly, be bought for $4,000 The terrace
is Il gem of II place, about six and one

fully to the west and south, embeI-
lished with four hundred orange, one
hundred and twenty-five lime and
lemon and seventy-iive other fruit
trees, besides q choice collection of
foreign grapes, shrubbery, etc. A
lovelier villa than this spot can be
converted into cannot be imagined.
Mr. Beaudry commenced operations

"Young Teacher" Explains.

EDITOR HERALD: viii you permit
me to inform "An American" where
"Young Teacher" discovered that the
Christian religion is tolerated by our
laws. Art. XI of treaty entered into
November t, 1856, between the sub
jects of Tripoli, of Barbary and the
people Of the United States reads as
follows GAS the Government of the
United States of America is not in any
sense founded on the Christian reli-
gion, as it has no character of enmity
against the laws, religion or tranquil
ity of Musselmen, and as the States
never have entered into any war or act
of hostility against any Mahomctam
nation, it is hereby declared by the
parties that no preteXt arising from
religious opinions shall ever produce
an interruption of the harmony exist
ing between the two countries.n
Now this solemn treaty, approved
by Washington and the early fathers,
is wrong, or "An American" is mis-
taken when he calls this nation u
Christian Republic. ieIa. +at E3sszt
| would refer "An American, also
to Art. Is of treaty between the Dey
and Regency of A lgiers and the United
States, ratified February II, 1922, in
which the foregoing doctrine is sub
stantially reiterated. Again, if Gan
American is right in his views us to
this being u Christian Republic, why
do the ministers of religion besicge the
iIs,iio of Legislation continually to lave
God inserted i'm the Constitution and
to have Christ recognized in our or
ganic law as a ruler among nations.
In conclusion, l would suggest to
"An American" that il would be in
better taste TO prove chat have taken
ridiculous positions on this question
than to give his i2)Sc dirit for ar
gument--that it is sign of weakness
to use questionable raiIlery for logic.
