silver tipped rods are lightning rods
and the gold tipped ones are thunder
rods-just what you want" and he
persuaded the old man into ordering
up the geld tipped rods.

ATLANTA.

The laborers' wages on public
works have been cut down to Scots
a day. The hands struck but ne
cessity forced a number to accept
the price, and one or two negroes
were beat by other negroes for do
ing so. White man with families to
house and feed, had to accept the
price, exhausted and weak, hardly
able to do efiicieat work for the
want of proper food. 1t was starva-
ton point. Contractors bid so low
in close competition that they can't
pay any more and make anything,
consequently laborers and their FAM
lilies are the sufferers.

Reporter says: A man named Louis
Burke, who lived at BarkeSviIle, in
this county, a few days ago, indulg
ed in very blasphemous language
because his crops had been destroy

for having his crops destroyed last
year by drought, and for destroying
them this year by flood, and con
cInded his bIasphemy of the Creator
with the expression God damn
Him y His tongue Glove tot the roof
Of his mouth, and he died the next
night, never uttering another word

Deputy Sheriff Roberts of Baker
county, Florida, in trying to arrest
Isaac Sans, a negro desperate who
swore he wouldn't be taken alive,
had to kill him in self defence. This
so incensed the negroes, about sew
enty five of them armed followed
sheriff Roberts to store and de-
manded that he be turned over to
them, and on refusal, they fired
one hundred shots in the store,
wounding Mr.. Roberts in the foot
and then left. Yet these savages
profess to be civilized.

llcan to Democratic administrations is likely
to prove as valuable an experience as that OF
the fox, which swan a river to rid itself of
swarm OF pestiferous flies, and found ON land

changed one swarm that had been sated with
his blood for another whose hunger was yet
TO be appeased."
What the Southern people staked in the
war is lost forever, and an admission of this
fact is the sole condition exacted by the SUI
perior North of the vanquished section; it
asks nothing than this, but 1t will accept
nothing less; and the new school of southern
craftsmanship must therefore illustrate itself,
not by prowling the wreck of the past for
grounds tor reclamations and damages, but
by turning the opportunities of the future to
advantage and and profit.-St. Louis Repub-
Ecdn.
A more courteous and graceful act than that
of Mr.. Poindexter, colored member of the
Louisiana Legislature, has never been re-
corded. In surrendering his seat, in accord
ance with the award of the commission, he
said that he experienced the greatest satisfac- :
tion in doing so, because he gave place to his
old master, who had always been just and
kind to him.
About this season of the year the first
reminder of the approach of Summer reaches
the editorial sanctum. The token is unmis-
taxable, and the editor sighs at the approach
of midsummer journalism, which he knows is
upon him. He fumbles over pile of letters
backed in unworldly hieroglyphics, pushes
them aside with sigh and murmurs, "We
thank thee, Collegian, for that sign." For
even as the northward SOAKING goose signals
the dawning Spring the academic epistle is
the unerring harbinger of the summer vaca-
tion. Several years OF observation have con-
vinced US that unfaltering trust can be re-
posed in these editorial weather signals, and
we feel that we are only discharging duty
to the public in announcing that we have
positive symptoms of approaching summer.
We have as many as dozen warnings from
entirely trustworthy sources now lying before
us. They came from professors in colleges,
teachers of country schools, undergraduates,
and young gentlemen of the "Class of Seven
ty-five," who propose in few short days
shedding the skin of the collegian and emerg-
ing in full editorial livery. All these epistles
have the same purport. The writers desire
to become volunteers in the editorial ranks,
and tender their services for the summer
campaign in manner so kindly, betraying
such innocence withal, that it is always re-
gretfully they are refused, and with no little
self-reproach that their well-meant offers are
not even acknowledged. Philadelphia Press.

Impartial observers of the course of the

whelmingly impressed with the conviction
that the good of the country demands res

Cincinnati Commercial asks if the Demo-
Gratis hold out promise of meeting the peo-
ples demands for ail honest party, and then
answers its conundrum in this way: "Tried
