The taxes of 1875, under demo
cratic rule, are larger by the sum- OF
81 1858, 1863, than they were in 1873,
when the Republicans held power.
This is what it cost TO elect a demo

And those long parted meet again.

Al.en or Honesty.

In view of recent developments,
every honest democrat is compelled
by his sense of right and justice to
vote against Bill Allen. The old
man was recently. interviewed at To-
ledo, by correspondent of the New
York Tribune, and if he is correctly
reported, "the true intent and mean
ing of the imitation business" says
the Cincinnati Commercial, "may be
stated in the phrase that the National
debt is to be, and ought TO be, and
must be, repudiated." This utter
ance has alarmed the honest men of
the country every where, and Demo
Gratis and Republicans join in the de-
mand for his defeat, and the whole
crew which supports him. Says the
New York Graphic, democrat:
civilian Allen must be defeated for
hoisting reputation rag"
The N. Y. World, another demo
cratic sheet, speaks still more EN-
phatic. 1t says:
-s'The Democrats of New York repu-
liate this hoary repudiator.
Says the New York Post, Ind: .
"Allen or Honesty is the question in
Ohio from now until the October cleo
tien."
This is no question of Republican
ism and Democracy. It's question
of honesty against dishonesty; "a
question of national integrity against
national reputation; and honest
men, without regard to party names,
should vote for honesty, for national
integrity, in the person of General
HAYES. For the sake of our national
fame and credit abroad and at home,
don't permit the disgrace to come
upon Ohio of the election of a pro-
nounced repudiator.

HENRY S. WALKER, the democratic
orator at the Opening" here, has
been making speeches for Bill Al
len in Lawrence county. We sup
pose he fired the democratic heart by
his coarse and brutal attacks upon
'carpet-baggers" and 'Cuffee" in the
South. His call to the Ohio stump
is a democratic endorsement of his
speech here, and this endorsement
should remind the colored voter of
his duty on election day.

AFTER the mean, low, scandalous
and false attacks which the Bulletin
has made upon some of the candi-
dates upon the Republican ticket
surely no Republican, if he has q
spark of the manhood left which he
evinced during the war, will be found
voting for a single democratic can
didate. These democratic candidates,
collectively and individually, are re-
sponsible for these wanton and mali
cious attacks, for they are made in
their behalf. = After such display OF
party hatred and malevolence, the
Republicans should stand shoulder
to shoulder-vOtei in solid column for
the prosecuted and the maligned.
Let us teach the family ring that
Truth and Justice has an abiding
home in the breast of every Repnbli-
can.

Dame Natures Lemonade.

The sour well near Luling, Texas, the
property of DIR. Burdett, says the Gal
weston Ne1Cs. has become somewhat fa-
nous. The water is pleasantly acidu-
lated, not unlike lemonade, and Is said
to possess wonderful curative proper
ties. The we'll was dug some years ago
by an old settler of the county named
Hiram Moore. Its mineral qualities
were soon discovered, and the neigh
bors for several miles around were in the
habit of visiting it, camping out while
availing themselves of the effects of the
water. Moore didn't like to be dis
turbed, so he filled up the well. In this
condition it remained for some time,
and might never have been reopened
had it not been for DR.. Burdett, by
whom it was reopened. Its waters are
now drank by thousands throughout
the State. 1t is sold in Galveston,
Houston, San Antonio, and Austin. The
doctor says that this water is anti-bil-
ious, cathartic, diuretic, diaphOretic, al
terative, and tonic. He states further
that it cures scrofula, rheumatism, cry
sipelas, liver and spleen arrangements,
and other complaints too numerous to
mention. l know from experience and
rom the statements of others, whose
veracity l could not doubt, that it is one
of the greatest appetizers now known.
| have heard many invalids say that 1t
gave them better appetite than they
had previously had for years. There Is
a bathhouse attached to the well. Last
summer | saw an old gentleman who
took off his hat and showed me his
head. On doing so he stated to me that
when he commenced bathing in the wa
ter his head of hair was as white rs cot
ton, and now | could see for myself it
was gradually assuming dark color.
The gentleman's name is Major Oates,
of Harris County, Texas. Any one dis
posed to doubt the effect of the water
upon his hair can correspond with him
at Houston, or visit him at his home.
The well is about thirty feet deep, and
its curative powers are the same in win
ter as in summer.

Retreat home, in this county. While
vania, Mr.. Clay told Gov. Metcalfe that
he had received intimations that in a
certain town they were approaching he
would be honored with an ovation by
the citizens (they, like thousands of his
fellow-cOuntrymen, loved HIM, but had
never seen him). Just before coming
to town Gov. Metcalfe, who had all
along been driving, suggested to Mr..
Clay that he take the lines and drive,
as he himself was tired. Mr.. G.. readily
consented, whereupon the Governor
took the back seat in the carriage.
The hOnored statesman drove the team
successfully into the town and they were
met by a large concourse of people.
Gov. Metcalfe alighted from the car
riage, and being asked whether he was
Mr.. Clay, answered yes, that he was
glad to meet them, etc. and at this
the crowd fairly hoisted him upon their
shoulders and triumphantly started
with him to the place of reception.
Looking back at Mr.. Clay, who still sat
in the carriage, somewhat nonplussed,
the Governor cried: Driver, take
those horses to the stable and feed
them" The merriment of the crowd
when the joke was discovered can bet
ter be imagined than described, Mr..
Clay himself as heartily entering into it
as the rest. Frequently afterwards he
would refer to it, and said it was one of
the best practical jokes he ever heard
