How TT IS DoNE.-The Anderson In
tetliqencer has obtained and published a
circular signed by D. H. Chamberlain, in
Which he says: '"The Daily Union-Hcr-
ald is the only Republican daily now
published in the State;;" and then goes
on to state that it is not self-sustaining
that the deficiency has been made up by
a very few gentlemen; that it is now nee
essary that others should assume a part
of the burden, and that he considers it
the duty of all who receive "dcnea and
profit from official position under the Rc-
publican party to aid in sustaining this
paper" ~ am willing to continue to dc
this myself, but cannot do it all" tie
wishes to sustain it for the prosperity OF
the State and for the existence of the Re
publican party"
Enclosed in the above circular was one
from +. l.. Cardozo, requesting the con-
tribution, and urging an early response
1t is understood that these circulars
have been forwarded to all Treasurcrs
Auditors and other officers who hold ia,
offices by executive appointment.
Now, though this is very usual prac'
tice in sustaining party organs and aiding
elections, it is none the less rcprchensi

the Governor should follow. If public
officials have larger salaries than they
need, suitable reductions should be made

THE HIGHEST BRIDGE IN THE
WoRLD.-The highest bridge in the
world will be built at the crossing of the
Kentucky river, on the CINCINNATI South
ern Railway, near the Shaker ferry;
The Baltimore Bridge Company, one OF
the most noted in the United States, has
secured the contract. The bridge will
consist of an iron deck truss of three
spans of 375 feet each, centre to centre,
supported by two piers and two abut-
ments. The piers will be built of ma
sonry to e height of 81 feet and 6 inches
above low-water mark, and the addi.
tional distance below low-watert mark will
soon be determined BY boring, under con-
troll of the resident engineer. These
piers will be 12O feet long end to end OF
cut water, and IS wide on the top, built
hollow, with the walls "a feet from the
end. Upon the masonry will rest the
iron trestle work. The grade line is 21o
feet 6 inches above low water. The
abutments will be built upon the cliffs on
each side of the river, and are to be 4S
feet high, depending upon the shape OF
The ledges of rock. When this structure
is completed, Kcntuckians can well point
with pride to the highest bridge upon
this continent.-Dm0ile (Ky.) Advoeate.

torious. Had he been in Columbia at
the time of the trial of Parker he could
have had an opportunity of vindicating
himself. AS it is, no authoritative denial
of his connection with the coupon fraud
has ever been made, and the people arc
left in unpleasant suspense: This cannot
but iniuro Mr.. Chamberlain in spite OF
the fine record he has made as Governor
Mr.. Chamberlain owes it to himself and
the people of South Carolina to return
Immediately and vindicate his character
from this grave accusation, and further
more to institute proceedings against
every member of the late Ring, and every
dishonest official, thus proving by his
acts that he has no fear Of having his past
career exposed to public gaze. Having
done this, he will strengthen himself
greatly with the honest people, and by
choking out every suspicion resting upon
him will be more powerful than ever IN

MIR. CLAY's ORATORY.

Entirely different from any one of those
speakers was Henry Clay. When in the
meridian of his powers his voice was per-
haps unequalled. Both in the richness
and melody of its fine tenor and in the
grandeur of its deep bass, it seemed Ca
cable of indefinite modulation and ex-
pansion. Perhaps the nearest approach
70 it in excellence and compass that L
can @ recall was that of Gentry, of Ten
nessee. But even his voice, remarkably
musical and varied in its tones, was
scarcely equal to Mr.. Clay's in compass,
was not so emphatic, and could not strike
with SO much force, nor was it capable OF
so great expansion in its deep or gan g,l
tones. Though Mr.. Clay was very tall,
and usually stood very erect, ne never
seemed stiff, as Mr.. Calhoun often ap-
peared. His gestures were abundant,
easy, appropriate, very impressive, and
vet always graceful as we'll as dignified.
He never stroye as some speakers do to
make an impression by the exhibition OF
bodily force. He was always animated,
often impassioncd. Whether he seemed
to be addressing himself wholly and
earnestly to presiding officer or threw the
glances of his bright blue eye over the

with you," said, cit is his fine manner
that in great degree makes him SO i'm
pressive, but his ideas are not in them
selves as large as those of the men you
mention, and are not calculated to make
so great an impression" They, however,
reiterated their opinions with much en-
phasis. Some weeks later on speaking
to them again, I found that the effect
had been greatly diminished.

Cause OF Floods.

The frequent and protracted droughts
that have afflicted the earth during some
years past have been ascribed to the in
creasing destruction of forests, and now
the excessive rains and floods of the
present season are in measure referred
to the same cause. Forests have n great
effect in equalizing the distribution of
ice aud SNOW under the influence of the
summer heat The existence of lumber
on hillsides also tempers the flow of sur
face water and restrains the accumula-
ton of torrents. 1t is notable fact
that the violence of spung and summer
floods is increasing in proportion to the
denudation of forest and woodlands.
When will men learn the unwisdom of

Capt. Webb's Wonderful Swimming
Feat.

The cable furnishes the following par
ticulars of the marvellous feat achieved
by Capt. Webb, of swimming across tn,
English channel:
Capt. Webb started (Aug. 24) on his
swim across the channel, at the rate OF
20 strokes to the minute. The weather
was calm. AT 500 he lunched on ale
and beef tea, and mt s o'clock on beef
tea and beer. He then rested, floating
on his back. At 9 o'clock he was
troubled with floating seaweed. At IL
o'clock, cod-liver oil was given him. The
moon rose at l in the morning. He in
dulged in brandy and tea. At this time
Webb declared the accomplishment OF
the feat sure thing. AT 3 he partook
of coffee. Then the tide turned, run
ming northward, and the Captain APP
peared exhausted. His trainer stripped,
ready to render assistance, but Webb
laughingly declined his services. His
strokes at this time were at the rate of 20
per minute. Fears arose that the north
ern tide would drift him abreast of Ca
lais sands, and, as the sequel proved, he
had four miles further to swim. Day
light broke at 4 o'clock, finding him
drowsy, when he indulged in coffee and
brandy. At $50 Riden's buovs were
sighted, and their position located. At
7 there was a westerly breeze and chop
ping sea, retarding in their influences,
and it was only indomitable pluck that
insured success. A skiff was kept on the
weather side, Webb swimming slowly
from this time. He indulged i'll brandy
straight every twenty minutes. Sound
ings were taken at 8 o'clock, and 10
fathoms reported. Steamers now made
their appearance from Calais, and
steamed along the weather side of the
swimmer, breaking the sea. Cheers
rung on necessarily, giving fresh hope
o the gallant swimmer, who laid direct
course for Calais sands, westward of the
pier. At 1870 o'clock he was III shallow
water, and at 10:40 to-day, incredible to
relate, the brave Matthew Webb stood
on land. He was tired, but soon recov-
cred, and was conveyed to & hotel III
carriage, where he was rubbed down
and put to bed. Capt. Webb, naked,
beats Paul Boyton about two hours. In
London, the widest enthusiasm pre-
walls. 1t is pronounced by the press the
greatest physical feat of the century.

DOnaldsOn's Sweetheart.

BY this time we had strayed around to
where the ladies were mounting their
glossy thoroughbreds for race III the
ring. Thomas introduced me to several
of these bespangled damsels, with one
of whom, Miss Taylor, L was convers-
ing, when / heard the voice of Dan.
CASTILLO roaring in the big tent. Step
ping to the entrance l caught the an
nouncement that dispatch had been
received that Grimwood's body had been
found in Lake Michigan. "Don't tell
Miss Taylor" said Thomas to the sur
rounding athletes and houris. "She
thinks of Donaldson" But already she
had pressed forward on her handsome
gray, and was demanding to know what
the announcement was. When The ques-
ton was evaded her eagerness increased,
for her suspicious were aroused. She
was to have married Donaldson month
ago. At last they had to tell her, and
the poor girl leaned upon the mares
name and deluged it with tears. She
writhed with agony in her beautiful
Jacket of scarlet silk, and presently she
jumped down and ran into a covered
wagon, where she could have cry all to
herself. After n little respectful delay,
during which the audience waited and
wondered what was the matter, the la
dies hurdle race was called. Miss Taylor
came forth, mounted the gray and won
the race. All of the five, in their colored
bodices and gay streamers, seemed to be
doing their utmost, but L wondered if
any of the competitors let their horses lag
little in order to give victory to the sad
faced rider whose eyes were fixed upon
her lovers body drifting alone upon the
lake of storms. Paul Correspond

Trayers ON Fisk and Gonld.

One day last summer, Col. Fisk was
showing Mr. Travers over the Plymouth
Rock, the famous Long Branch boat.
After showing the rest of the vessel, he
pointed to two large portraits of himself
and Mr.. Gould, hanging, a little distance
apart, at the head of the stairway.
"There, says the Colonel, "what do
you think of them Z"
They're good, Colonel-you hanging
on one side and Gould on the other
f--i-r-s-t-rate. But, Colonel" con.
tinued the wicked Mr.. Travers, buried
in thought, "w-w-wheres our Saw
iour2"
Mr.. Travers, who is a vestryman in
Grace Church, says he knows it was
wicked, but he couldn't have helped il
if he'd been on his dying bed.-Et

Love and a Mule.

The Newark EUening Courier, news
paper remarkable for its veracity, says of
one of its citizens {" He rose early and
gulped down his morning cup of coffee,
as if his life depended upon his haste
Then he rushed to the grand-delivery
window of the postoffice, and inquired
for letter. The clerk handed him per
fumed missive, directed in fair round
hand. He ripped open one end of the
envelope with his lead-pencil sharpener,
and commenced TO read rs he crossed
Broad street toward Center Market.
What TO him were the country wagons,
with their loads of beets and cabbages
He read AS sit by the open window

and tumbled into basket of squashes,
as if a thunderbolt had been launched at

disconsolately away. The course of true
love never did run smooth.

Attacked by n Grizzly.

H. Wilburn, of the Sespe, on Wednes-
day night about 10 o'clock, while with
his band of sheep on the east side of the
Sespe, in the hills, heard his dog bark
ing savagely at some object, but was not
alarmed. Suddenly the dog came howl
ing TO him, with bear Immediately be-
hind. He had no firearms, and no time
to think what was best to do-and before
he could even turn around was attacked
and thrown, he thinks, about ten or tif-
teen feet. He fell upon a sharp rock
and was severely cut in the hip. After
falling the bear came upon him and
scratched him badly about the abdomen
and shoulders, but cid not bite him.
Wilburn remained perfectly quiet as if
dead, and the bear hearing the dog
barking ut the cubs which she had left
behind, ran off swiftly. He then hob
bled home, about one mile distant. He
has six or eight severe cuts on his body,
and dozen or more scratches and Sc
we're bruises. He will recover, but VIII
he confined to his bed for several weeks.
Wilburn says that if the dog had not at
tackled the cubs he would have been de
voured. Ventura (COl.) Sign0l.
