THE JUG IN POLITICS.

The Christian at Work. Rev. T.
Dewitt Talmage, d. D., editor, in
a recent comment upon "The jug
in Politics." says with great peril
hence:
"The Republican party are in
mortal dread lest the temperance
question be somehow fastened to
item. There are many prominent
teetotaIers who fear to have the sub
iect mentioned in the political cons
ventions. Now, we undertake to
say that the temperance question
has a right to 60 anywhere. After
the liquor dealers have driven on
their damnable traffic little fur
Their, and a few more millions Of men
have been mastered of strong drink
and few more imprisoned, we shall
be able to form an independent ma
tional temperance party, perhaps not
so large as the Republican or Demo
cratic, but large enough to hold the
balance of power, and thereby de-
eide who shall be our Secretaries of
State, Governors and Presidents
We hereby strike hands with all
men and women who hate rum ; and
while we pledge our sympathy with
all moral suasionists, we will not
stop there, but go on to advocate the
annihilation of the license system,
the disgrace of courts that favor it,
the imprisonment of all wholesale
and retail dealers in this business,
and the election of Judges, senator's,
and Presidents who are the out and
out sworn and everlasting foes OF
strong drink"
We have noticed that the "Jug''
has been logged into politics in this
place frequently in trying to secure
the Negroes vote much to the dis
grace Of white men who claim to be
superior TO the negro and should sci
him better example. In Other
words obey encourage the negro to
drink whisky, knowing that it will
make him a worthless idler, and then
when the negro wont work, steals
something and he is put on trial,
these white men see him marched of
to the chain gang as fruits OF their
work. To condescend to the ne
gro's level and then get him drunk
and cheat him out of his vote, is too
mean for contemplation, and which
responsibility will not stoop to. We
can blame no white man for enlight-
ening the negro as to his duty, but
when the dark hours of night finds
white man in a huddled crowd of
Africans buying their votes with a
drink eff whisky, that man is not the
right one to hold any Office and rule
over white people. And when we
hear of such spectacle, we blush in
shame for the white race. To get
the negroes drunk and march them
up to the polls like dumb driven
cattle" sayors too much of carpet
bag radicalism, and we are TOO much
of Southerner, native born and
true to her principles, to sell our
individuality for mess of pottage.
We want true men in office, and not
run in the interest Of one man or set
of men. Men untrammeled and who
care more for honor and principle,
than for the emolumeuts Of office,
In the coming municipal election,
let us watch men and see how they
act. Society has right to demand
honorable conduct.

HALF AN EGG.-If statistics could be
the saving Of us, we ought all to be in the
very best plight at the beginning of the
new year, for paragraphs are beginning
to appear in all directions telling us how
many pounds Of bacon we have eaten in
the year, how much tea and how much
whisky and gin we have consumed per
head and in fact all other things Chris
tian ought to know and believe for the
benefit Of his conversation ut small tea
parties. The plethora of statistics re-
minds us Of the commission appointed in
France to calculate the number of eggs
laid in the country in the year 1872. II
was found when the reports had all come
in and the calculations had all been made
that the total was 40, ,050, 222, 1887! Why
this half? The calculations were all gone
over again, but this half could not be got
rid Of. There was a great sensation at
the Ministry Of Commerce. In all the
corridors nothing was to be seen but sec
retaries, under clerks, mes
sengers, coming and going, and all busy
about this half egg. At last one Of the
clerks found Il report from the Mayor OF
Franche Comte, stating that in his dis.
trict the number of eggs laid had been
seventy-two thousand and half. A
special messenger was at once sent to the
Mayor to find out what he could possibly
mean by this half egg. "Sir." answered
the honest man, Il took notice that one
of the hens in my district laid an egg on
the boundary of my department. As a
law-abiding man | could not make a re-
turn of more than half of this egg. Had
my colleague on the other side been as
correct as | was, the two halves would
have been completed, and you would
have had your number of eggs entire"
The worthy Mayor was thoroughly in the
right, but the story seems to show that
the love of accurate statistics can be car
ried too far,

" PIZENED. AN old fellow prowling
through an alley by the Moffat building
yesterday, came upon lot of half decay
ed oranges which had been just thrown
out. He WAS sorting them over when a
boy came along, and taking in the situa-
ton in an instant he shouted "Them' $
put there to pizen hogs, mister, and if
you bite into one Of 'em you're dead
man." The old man moved off, and then
that boy sat down and stuffed himself till
he was orange colored around behind the
ears. Detroit free Press,

THE WONDERS OF WooING.-In old
en- time it was the fashion for sutor to
go down on his knees to lady when he
asked her to become his wife, which with
very stout gentlemen was an uncomtort-
able proceeding. The way in which
Daniel Webster proposed to Miss Fletch-
er was more modern, being at the same
time neat and poetic. Like many other
lovers he was caught holding skein of
thread or wool which the lady had been
unraveling. "Gracie," he said, 1--WE
have been untying knots. Let us see if
we cannot tie one which will not unite in
lifetime" With piece of tape he
fashioned half true lovers knot, Miss
Fletcher perfected it and kiss put seal
to the symbolical bargain.
Most men when they pop" by writing
are more straightforward and matter of
fact. Richard Steele wrote to the lady
of his heart: "Dear Mrs. Scurlock
(there were no misses in those days.,
am tired of calling you by that name {;
therefore, say day when you will take
that of madam. Your devoted, humble
servant, Richard Steele" She fixed the
day accordingly, and Steeled her name
instead of her heart to her suitor.
The well known brothers, Jacob and
William Grimm, were exceedingly at
tached to each other and had no desire tC
be married. But it was thought proper
by their friends that one of them shouC
become a husband, and Jacob being The
elder, it was agreed that he should be the
one to enter into the bonds of mutrimony
A suitable lady was found, but Jacob de
clined to do the courtng, requesting hi'
brother to act as his agent. William
consented, but soon found he was in love
and wanted the lady himself.
He could not think, however, of de
priYing his brother of such treasure
and knew not how to act. An aunt kind
ly delivered him fom his difficulty by
telling Jacob, who willingly resigned th'
damsel to his brother and went out of tho
way until she had been made Mrs. Will
lam Grimm.
A Scotch beade was the one who pop
ped the question in the grimmest manner
He took his sweetheart into the graveyard
and showing her dark corner, said -
Mary, my folks lie there. Would you
like to lie there, Mary ?" Mary was a
sensible lassie and expressed her willing
ness to obtain the right to be buried neal
the beadle's relatives by uniting herself
to him in wedock
A similar unromantic view Of the sub
ject by another maiden. Upon her love
remarkng, - think I'll marry thee
