The New York Post considers that the hare
money democrats who desire the success of thei
party in Ohio in spite Of the rag money platform
ere exceedingly short-sighted; because with I
democratic imitation platform in the next Presiden
tial canvass, republican victory would be sure
1t adds:
"When we see great party In great State
committing itself TO this heresy of imitation and
advocating it with such audacity that members OF
the party who have hitherto rejected the heresy
Senator Thurman, for instance-are compelled
70 speak with bated breath, and even to defend
and excuse the heretcs we must believe that the
danger is too imminent to be lightly dismissed.
Should the democrats carry Ohio in October the
danger would be far greater or rather, instead OF
the danger we should have the accomplished fact
Of an imitation plank in the national democratic
platform. Senator Thurman and other hard
money democrats would be silenced everywhere
ss be has been silenced in Ohio, and the de arrest
wish Of the republican heart would be realized"

from hand to hand. II am no longer in my
own house., said Holtum; "you are master
here, and you must watch over all the arrange
ments." Having carefully aimed and lashed
his cannon, it was charged, and Holtum
took his place against plank target some
ten yards away. This was to show that the
ball was solid, and the force Of the powder
great enough to send it through the plank.
Holtum got the aim of his gun, and then
placed his head in certain position against
the plank, giving the command to fire. The
ball just grazed the hair and broke through
the plank, rolling some twenty yards further
on. The same ball was picked up by the
journalists, who again charged the cannon
and sent home the ball, and this time Holtum
caught the ball in his hands as neatly as he
does nightly upon the stage. He won his
bet, and no one seemed disposed to accept his
offer of 5000 francs to any one who would
perform the same astounding feat The
physical force required may be enormous,
but Holtum showed his strength by tossing
up cannon balls as if they were so many
oranges The only precautions taken are
very simple; he wears very thick leather
gloves, and covers his breast with many thick
nesses of thin paper to form sort Of cuirass.
This looks like very dangerous feat, partic-
ularly the first part of it, where Holtum
places his head against the target half an inch
below where the ball will probably strike. If
the powder should chance to be Detective
some day there might be an accident, snap.
ping his head very neatly off.

on that day of jubilee, and what you now ap-
prove and confirm. has already been most
heartily indorsed by the people and press OF
the North.
only spoke the hopes and feelings of my
people. The chord of love and harmony was
there, and only waited for the touch. The
chief defect in the fabric of our union, which,
while it existed, rendered perfect harmony
of interests impossible, has been rudely swept
away, leaving structure more permanent
more full of glorious possibilities than our
fathers dared to hope for. To cement this
new union on a sounder foundation. and avail
ourselves of the promises of the future is a
solemn task we'll fitted to these centennial
years. As soldiers who fought the battle out
in good faith, you can WELD the strongest in.
fuence for peace and right. Your worst en-.
emies at the South are the few men here and
there who talk more bravely than they fought,
and it is the same at the North, but the peo-
pie there are tired of these politicians "whose
voice is still for warfare fast replacing them
by men of less selfish purposes, whose views
are bounded by no narrow lines of State or
section or party, but who desire justice and
prosperity for all. The war through which
we passed developed and proved on both sides
the noble qualities of American manhood. 1t
has left to US soldiers. once foes now friends, q
memory of hard fought fields, of fearful sac
rifces, of heroic valor, and has taught lesson
to be transmitted to our children that divided
we we're terrible united we are forever invin'
chile.

lhAY.DAY PICNICS.

May.day was duly celebrated by the young
folk hereabouts with picnic and other festive
parties The Cadets at Kings Mountain
Military School gave ball at which their
friends we're invited to participate in the fes-
tivities of the dance. The pupils Of the Fe-
male Institute with their young friends, en-
joyed themselves with a picnic party at the
McCaw grove in the vicinity Of town, at which
Miss Bessie Mason was crowned Queen of
May, the ceremony being performed in knight
ly style by Master Paul McCorkle. Under
the auspices of our young townsman, G. e.
Parish, an extensive picnic party enjoyed
themselves at Centre Church, about seven
miles north of town. A large number of
both sexes, preceded by the Colored Brass
Band, formed in procession and rode out to
Centre, where they were met by the bellies and
beaux for miles around. Felicitous speeches
we're made by Mr.. Parish and Mr.. Campbell
Jackson, and the gay throng enjoyed them
selves until late hour in the afternoon.
