AN INSULT TO FOREIGNERS Senator
Pratt, OF Indiana. in his speech on the
Civil Rights Bill, said some things
which the foreign people of this coun.
try would do we'll to ponder. especially
ths Germans and ScandinayiAns of
the West, who have acquired Ameri-
can citizenship and have hitherto been
very instrumental in keeping the Radi.
cal party in power. Listcn to Mr..
Pratt:
''It hos seemed to me most sur.
prising thing that people who declaim
against what they call negro equality
are never heard to start any objection
to admission to fullest rights of citi.
zenship Of the foreigner, though he be
Ignorant to the last degree, pauper,
or criminal, unaoquainted with our
laws. and not capable even of speaking
our language. More than the third Of
a million of immigrants from every
country OF Europe annually land upon
our shores and are heartily welcomed
to the privileges Of citizenship. with
whom it is not unfair to say the negro
population OF this country will bear
favorable comparison in all tue ele.
monts that go to make useful oitizens "
II the foreign-born citizens Of In
diana can stand that sort of talk they
oan stand almost anything.

WORDS OF VITAL INTEREST. Will
the thousands who read columns OF
frivolous verbiage every day devote
five minutes to the perueal of few
fucts which concern them nearly? Our
text Is ''Health, and We will put our
commentary. into q nutshell Weak
ness is indirectly the cause of all sick
ness; for if Lnture be strong enough to
resist the morbid influences which pro-
duce illuesa, OF course they are power
less. Seek strength, therefore. In
vigornte and regulnte the system.
Wien the fire Of life seems TO be abso-
luteiy dying out in the system, and
the mind, sympathizing with the
body, is reduced almost to state of
imbecilliy, the mighty restorative.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. seems, as
it we're. to lift the sufferer out of the
Slough of Despond. and recruit and
! re invigorate both the fradle and the
intellect. Would that all who have
known its benefits could condense
their experience into this paragraph.
They would tell the healthy that
to protect their health they must use
this great safeguard against the debili-
tating inhuenoes. They would exhort
the weak to diacard all unmedlcated
and impure stimulants and cling to
this wholesome and unfaiiing tonic
and Alternative as the shipwrecked ma
rlner would cling to Is raft in stormy
sea. They would tell of dyspeptio
pangs relieved, of appetite restored,
of shattered nerves restrung. OF head
aches cured. Of disordered functions
regulated, of hypochondria aissipated,
Of miasmatic diseases baff1ed, of fever
and ague cured. of liver complaints ar

fed, of hope re-animated and cheer

EXECUTIVE CLEMENcY. sentenc.
ing Anthony McOoppen at Abbeville,
last Friday. Judge Cooke said that his
sentence would be light for two rea-
sons; hTss, the prisoner had told the
truth about the matter when nut mon

no use ending him to the penitentiary
for long term, because he would he

Cooke said that the efforts OF the
courts in this State were 80 prostrated
by the undue exercise of executive
clemenoy that there was premium on
crime. Such evidence is damaging
against Mr.. Moses.

To all, particularly invalids. spring
is trying season. Indications OF sick
ness should at once be attended to.
Fatal diseases may be caused by allow
ing the bowels to become constipated,
and the system to remain in disor-
dercd condition, until the disorder has
time to develop itself. An ounce of
prevention is worth pound of cure, is
"n old and truthful saying. Therefore.
"a advise all who are troubled with the
complaints now very prevalent-headA &
ache. Indigestion, disordered liver,
want Of appetite, nausea. or feverish
skin, to take, without delay, Schenck'a
Mandrake Pills. We know Of no
remedy so harmless and decisive in it's
action. II at once strikes at the root
OF the disease and produces a healthy
tous to the system. People never need
suffer from any disease arising from a
dIsordered condition of the liver, if
they would take this excellent medi-
cine when they feel the first indica-
TORS of the malady. Families leav-
ing home for the summer months
should take three or four boxes of
these pills with them. They have an
almost instantaneous effect. They will
relieve the patient of headache IN one
or two hours. and will rapidly cleanse
the liver Of surrounding bile. and will
trectually prevent bilious attack. 4
They are sold by all druggists.

The PHOSPHATE STATE. The follow
ing little paragraph, which appeared
on Saturday. is one of the most sig
nificant items of news recently pub
lished from tho South: The sale OF
the property of delinquent tax payers
of Charleston County, South Carolina,
was concluded yesterday. $500 pieces
OF real estate in the County have been
forfeited to the State for want OF bid
ders." Having taken what little ready
money tue citizens had, the pIunder-
ing public officials are now oonfscating
their lands and houses. Tho New
York Tribune conjectures. no doubt
correctly. that very fow OF these 5000
parcels of property forfeited within a
week in and around Charleston will be
redeemed within the ninety days
allowed by law. Nobody will buy
them under the present condition Of
affairs, because nobody can possibly
pay the charges on them. They will
remain rs public property until gene
raj bankruptcy or some other catastro-
phe puts new face upon the situation,
and then they will pass into strange
hands. Indeed. when q State cannot
collect its taxes. even by distraint. we
do not know why it is not bankrupt
already. The Tribune reminds those
honest and we'll meaning persons ut
Washington who want to do something
for South Carolina that very good
opportunity WAS spoiled only few
weeks ago. A steamboat captain con-
cerned in Wholesale fraud by which
the Charleston ring voted itself into
Office nt the last election was convicted
not, indeed, Of this offence, for the
State courts arc too corrupt to punish
election frauds committed for the right
side-but Of violating statute Of the
United States for the purpose and in
the act OF committing the higher
crime. He was sentenced 10 fine,
and was Immediately pardoned by
Frederick "A. Sawyer, Acting Secre-
tary OF the Treasury" 1t is suggested
that the resignation Of Mr.. Sawyer
might afford drop Of relief to South
Carolina.

Reputation is making headway in
the West. Dallas County, Mo, has
refused to pay interest or principal OF
$3.50. 600 worth Of bonds issued for
railroad purposes, and when tho
United States Court gave Judgment
agniDst the County the judges Of the
County court escaped servicn by jump
ing through windows and running
away. Greene County, in the samu
State, which also issued railroad bonds
by the vote of large minority of the
citizens, is in default for interest, aud
some of those who were SO anxious for
a railroad arc now nrmiDg to resist the
levy of taxation to pay their obiiga-
tons incurred in getting it.
VIRGINIA TOBACCO. Many Of the
farmers, disheartened by tho result Of

some instances did not renlize what

ing less force TO operate crops with,
and tho supply Of plants has been
much diminished by uausnnl and un-

concerned, the tobacco of next season
