rsuders on this side.
Mr.. Tucker denied that there was any
such evidence.
Mr.. Harrison read from the testimony to
sustain his position. He was replied to by
Messrs. Reagan, Hancock and Schleicher,
who denied that construction OF the testl-
mOny wal q correct one.
Mr.. Hill, of Georgia, conf ,ssed to consid-
cradle trouble in regard to the second sec
ond section. Thu argument of the gentleman
from Virginia (Tucker) was not altogether
satisfactory to his mind. He thought the
second section was giving a very strong
and dangerous power to the executive. He
asked Mr.. Schleicher whether, If the first
section alone was passed and two full regi-
ments of cavalry stationed permanently on
that border, if it would remedy these diff
%culties, or at least give such promise OF
remedy as that 1t should be tried first.
MIR. SchIeicher admitted that it would
certainly give some measure of security.

come acquainted with the particulars.
New Orleans with her only child, a girl
nine months of age, bound for Dallas, to
join her husband. The child was suffering
greatly from teething, that trouble so COM
mon to young children. On the vessel it
became worse, and the mother, as soon as
the landing was effected, repaired to the
residence of Mrs. West, East Broadway,
where, after an hour of suffering, death
came to the little ones relief.
Mrs. N~unnerly had the body placed in a
metallic coffin and shipped to Dallas by the
3P. NJ. train, which she took herself. The
sudden loss of her child was q severe blow,
and caused her to give vent to her grief
several times while preparing to start

Mr.. Garfield, of Ohio, remarked that the
quotation read by MIR. Cox from Governor
Tflden's message in which he represented
the federal taxation of 1870 as $45O,OOO 900,
was an over estimation of at least $50, OOO.-
600.
Mr.. Cox replied that in addition to that
taxation of &45O, 900, 600 the people had been
taxed indire city through the protective
tariff at least 81 200, 600, 600.
Mr.. Tucker, of Virginia, defended the bill
OF the principle of international law which
he quoted in support of his position. He
argued that a reprisal was itself a peaceful
remedy; tits proposition was still more
peaceful, for it looked not to the SEIZURE of
property belonging to Mexican citizens, but
only to the recapture of the property of
American citizens. He suggested an amend
ment for a notice by the President 70 the
Mexican government, calling attention to
these wrongs and injuries, and requiring
redress within ninety daye. and in the fail
ure thereof. authorizing the President to
use the army for the purpose of recapturing
the property Of American citizens with en-
tire reference to the persons anu property
of the peaceful Inhabitants of Mexico.
Mr.. Harrison. Of Illinois, replied to Mr..
Tucker, and intimated that there was tes-
timOny to show that if the m%arauders did
not live on the American side of the Rio
Grande they were aided by men living on
this side. He argued that the United States
government should do its W duty, guard
its frontier and treat Mexico as its peer in
power az we'll as in nationality.
Mr.. Tucker remarked that if Mexico
were able to redress those wrongs and
failed to do il, that was q cause of war; and
If the were not able, then this remedy
ought tn be resOrted to.
Mr.. Harrison minated that there was
evidence that the American government

THE FRESHET IN OCONEE.

A correspondent of the Register, wri-
ting from Walhalla about the recent
heavy rains in Oconee County, over the
signature of "Renwick," says:
Having an opportunity of sending let
ters by private conveyance, I write you
few items in regard to the storm which
passed over our county, leaving ruin and
desolation in its path. The rain com.
menced here on Monday, the 18th, and
continued almost without cessation until
Saturday afternoon. The Chattooga,
Tugalo, Keowee and Seneca Rivers and
Chauga, Conneross, Cane and other creeks
were higher than they have been known
for half a century, bursting their barriers
and overAowing all the surrounding
country. All the bottom lands were in
undated for from one to four days.
Wheat, rye and oats were swept away,
and the growing corn buried beneath the
accumulated deposits washed from the
uplands. One-fourth, if not one-half, of
the crops have been totally ruined.
Nearly every mill and bridge throughout
the country has been swept away. Many
of our farmers will be unable to replant,
and there will not be near supplies enough
raised to meet the every day wants of Four
people.

The IDLE DEMoCRAcY.-Is that man
a true Democrat who hunts up excuse to
keep away from club meetings? Is that
man friend to his people who lounges
around doing nothing, or sits quietly in
his deserted store or business Office on
such occasions? Does he want change
in our political condition who will not
give o bit of his time and influence to
defeat the foul crew who now prey upon
us? It looks doubtful to us and puts us
to asking questions. 1t needs no argu-
ment to convince man of common sense
that our country is forever lost if we do
not rise at once to decisive action in this
critical time. The Democracy of Abbe-
vile must awake from the fatal lethargy
which has stupifed them so long, and
meet in a manly way the issues now be-
fore them. He who is recreant now, is
traitor to all that is right in morals and
all that is due to his felIow-citizens.
If you are an honest man, friend Of
your people, and wish to leave country
fit to live in to your children, come out
from your retirement and join in this cru
