the contest in the Seventh Congress

paratively when weighed against
the great object of preserving and
perpetuating Democratic suprema>

fgureheads representing divided

and the other disaffected wing in
the interest of single mans per

as God gives US the light to see the

POLITICAL FRBEDEALER.

Gainesville Express If there is
or ever was any political party to
which Dir. II. V. NJ. Miller has not
at some time belonged, it would be
a curiosity to see it.
He was Know Nothing in 1856,
was a Loyal Lacquer in 1866, and it
is proper for him to be a Feltonite
in 1876.
The doctor has character to sus-
tain his testimony of Felton's dem
ocracy, for in 1868 he was elected
to the US. Senate by Bullock's Leg
islature.
The Democratic Legislature in
1872, it is true, repudiated him.

an OLD MISER.

WE have frequently seen accounts
of the doings Of men considered for
the time to be the meanest men to
be found. but do not remember to
have seen anything surprising the
avaricious meanness Of a man nam
ed Daniel KNITTED, who died last
week in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin.
lie lived in a one roomed howell,
which he used as a cobber shop, and
also as his eating and sleeping apart>
ment, apparently destitute Of every
thing necessary to make life endur-
able. Here he was found dead one
morning of last week, his body COW
cred with a horde of hungry rats. --
Scarcely anything was found in the
howell in the line of clothing or food,
though he had $4,000 in cash in
bank, besides 10000 worth of prop
erty in Fond du Lac, all which he
wiIed to three nephews in Gers
many, leaving his body to be buried
at the expense of Fond du Lac
benevolent society. The miserable
old miser made the wealth he failed
to enjoy by selling whisky during
the war.

MORE SUNSHINE.

The world wants more sunshine in
its disposition, in its business, in its
charities, in its theology. For ten
thousand of the aches and pains and
irritations of men and women we re-
commend sunshine, It soothes bet
ter than morphine. 1t stimulates
better than champagne. 1t is the
best plaster for a wound. The
Good Samaritan poured out into the
fallen travellers cash more of this
than of oil. Florence Nightingale
used it on the Crimean battle>felds.
Take it into all the alleys on board
all the ships, by all the sick beds.
Not phia! full, not cup full, not
a decanter full, but soul full. 1t is
good for spleen, for liver complaint,
for falling fortunes, for melancholy.
Perhaps heaven itself is only more
sunshine.

DEATH.

WHAT is DEATH? What, but a
mere circumstance in an endless eX>
istence, less deplorabGe than banish>
ment to far country, less than an
unworthy deed, less than the rup-
ture of friendships ties, less than the
hour of physical distress, which you,
my friend, have often experienced !
Life falling asleep on a bed of pain,
to wake in a garden of roses, would
be the natural departure of the spirit
from earth. Could we truly live till
childhood has ripened into youth,
and youth into manhood, and mans
hood into old age, so that the spirit
could have the whole benefit of a
life on earth, than would the body
fall otfIik a worn~out and useless
garment; and the soul, in the fresh
bora vigor of immortal youth, would
sail joyously into the atmosphere Of
its higher and better home.

A LOSS.

Keen fellows those insurance
agents. There was an alarm of fire
the other day, caused by gas ex-
plosion in the saloon Of Michael
MCGOWAN, at the North end. As
soon as the excitement had quieted
down q little Mr.. MCGOWAN started
for tie insurance office, where be
had taken out a policy on his "she-
been" and its contents. Soon after
Michael left a quiet looking gentle
man entered, and interviewed Mrs.
MCGOWAN on the subject of gas -
He was very severe he thought the
gas had been improperly used; he
doubted if the company would put
up pipes in there again if so much
damage was done.
Mrs MCGOWAN was alarmed
She knew that much of Mr.. McGow>
ans business was transacted "under
the gaslight,' and she voIubly pro-
tested "AiSy, sir, av ye place; is

you'd trow it on the fire. Damage,
is it? Wait till get drop o white

Meanwhile Mike, with bis head
bound up and wearing a woeful
countenance, was waiting at the in
surance Office. Presently the agent
arrived, and Mr.. MCGOWAN opened
his case at once.
"Good marnin, Mister Premium.

How much do you think your loss

games on insurance people,
Mr.. MCGOWAN heightened inch by

the insurance man continued. FL
nally, his eye falling under the gaze
of the other, he pocketed the money,
signed the necessary papers, and
merely remarked

WORSE TEAM HAMBURG.

From a comparison of the differ
eut accounts OF the Cainhoy massa,
ere in South Carolina, it becomes
evident that the slaughter of the
whites was the result of a deliber>
ately formed plan. A joint discus
sion of political issues had been ar
ranged, aud it was stipulated that
those who attended the meeting OF
both parties, should go uuarmed.-
The white and colored Democrats
from Charleston fulfilled this part of
the agreement, but the Republican
negroes were provided with guns
which they secreted in the bushes
and in an old ruined building near
the speakers stand Everything
went on quietly for an hour or more
when suddenly there was heard the
report Of gun, and Immediately the
blacks rushed to the bushes, seized
their fire arms which they had CON
cealed there, and fired volley after
volley into the crowd of unarmed
Democrats, following them on their
retreat to the steamboat which had
brought them to the meeting, and
keeping up the fire to the last
of the visitors from Charles
ton were killed and many severely
wounded. One Republican negro
was found dead it is supposed that
he was in the crowd with the Demo-
Gratis aud shot by mistake. After
the fight the bodies of the killed
were found stripped and mutilated.
