OUR DUTY.

NEVER in the history of our coun-
try did ii become more imperatively
important that democratic organiza.
ton should be kept intact, than in
the present campaign now upon us.
Never was a party entrusted with
greater responsibilities in rescuing
constitutional liberty from usurping
despots than now. We appeal to
our countrymen to lay aside every
personal preference and prejudice
and periodically CO operate with a
united Democracy in driving Radi
calism and "money changers" from
the temple of liberty. Our people
cannot afford to be Indifferent. Sink
men out of sight, AMI stand by the
standard bearers of democratic orr
ganization, who represent the living
principles of that party. Duty and
love of country admonish you to sup>
port the regular nominees, Tilden,
Colquitt and Dabney. Let your
votes for these men be SO over
whelming, to encourage your dem
ocratic brethren in other States, who
are struggling with you in restoring
the government of Washington and
Jefferson to its former purity.

GEN. GORDON.

Our distinguished AID beloved
Senator, Gen. Gordon, was at Spar
tanburg, South Carolina, on Satur-
day last, by invitation to address a
mass meeting. He returned yester>
day, and assures US that he never
witnessed such enthusiasm or such
an upheavaI Of the masses. There
were at least FIVE thousand men pres
emit, fifteen hundred Of whom were
mounted and mixed, and all shouts
ing Tilden and Hendricks, HamP'
ton and Reform. The largest club
pr sent was colored club, and then
there we're clubs of whites and
blacks, all for Democracy, reform,
peace and prosperity. The negroes
we're as enthusiastic as the whites.
They had tried Radical misrule eight
years and were tired of it. They
desired to make friends with their
own people and stand by home rule,
honest government and peace.-At
Commonwealth.

A RIVER or INK.-In Algeria
there is river of genuine ink. 1t is
formed by the union of two streams,
one coming from region of ferrugi
nous soil, the other draining peat
swamp. The water of the former is
strongly impregnated with iron, that
of The latter with gallo acid. When
the two waters mingle, the acid of
the enc uni;es with the iron of the
other, forming a true ink. We are
familiar with a stream called Black
brook in the northern part OF this
State, the ink color of whose water
is evidently due to like condition.

STRIPPED of the clumsy and mac
urate verbiage of tho A,torney>Gen
erals circular, the whole matter is
reduced to an interference by the
military arm Of the United States, in
favor of one political party against
the other, in alleged anticipation OF
wrongs that belong exclusively to
the State jurisdiction. The case
that can alone authorize any inter
ference by the President does not ex
ist at all, and is not claimed to exist.
But we have President who is de-
termined that Hayes shall be his suc>
cessor, and who expects to secure
that result through the blindness OF
the people as to the Illegally of his
acts.

A DYING BOY PUT OFF A TRAIN
Cincinnati Enquirer.


A short time since q conductor,
whose name we have been unable to
learn, on the Iron Mountain railroad,
forced boy by the name of Elijah
Campbell, to get off the train at DE
Soto, Missouri. The boy told the
conductor that he had the malaria,
and that if put off the train he
would not live till morning, but was
nevertheless pushed from the train,
and reeIed and fell headlong to the
ground. There he lay all night long.
In the morning some of the ladies OF
De Soto cared for him, but it was
too late, and he died shortly after
being taken from the railroad tracb.

'The stream OF negro importation

Scarcely day passes that we do not
hear of white laborers being turned
off to make places for these negroes

A FREAK OF FORTUNE Not very
long ago, John Hubert was turned
out of his house in Jersey City, be-
cause he Was unable to pay the rent.
John was not rich in this world's
goods-leastways not in those goods
that landlords fancy. To be sure,
Johns wife has ten jewels such as
Cornelia boosted of; but it is in this
country as in Old Ireland-"chil-
dren are not pigs, you know they
will not pay the rent" So out in
the street went John Hubert and his
wife and their ten children For
some days and nights they had no
roof to shelter them, and we're pro-
portionately short of food. Then,
all at once and without word of
warning, came a message from Eng
land to the effect that a nearly for
gotten relative had died and left
John 60, 900. This good tidings
cane last Tuesday, and on Thurs
day the full $4,000 was paid over
to the homeless John Hubert. Now
the wife and ten jewels will be hous-
ed and fed once more, and John can
put on a pair patent leather boots,
and go and snap his fingers at that
hearth IS landlord, for no landlord in
these days is such favorite of for
tune as is } Jhn Hubert.

SENSIBLE DECIsIoN.-The Supreme
Court of Georgia, says the New York
World, has just rendered a sensible
decision, which is commended to the
attention of the courts, lawmakers
and parents. In tina; State there is
a statute making it penal offence
to sell or give liquor to minor with
out first obtaining the consent OF the
parent or guardian, and it is held
that proof that the liquor was sold to
the minor, and that his parent was
not present and asserting at the
time, will authorize the conviction of
the seller unless he can show that he
had the parents permission before
selling.

WHAT DEMOCRATIC DIVISION
HAS DONE.

HAS OONE.
/ "a house divided against itself
cannot stand, says the Divine Book,
and we have verifcation of this
fact 10 the history Of the Democrats
c party. In the year 1860, the
Democratic party, which had ruled
his country for three quarters of a
entury or more, bringing up the
government from its infancy until it
las in the full statue Of manhood,
,. its long reign Of power became in
its fancied security so strong that it
Jeiied defeat, divulsd and became
lFeckless of consequences.
This giant Democracy, split in
vain, placed two Presidential can
ldates in the field. One faction
Imported Breckenridge, and the
Their faction supported Douglass.
he Wings supported Bell, and the
republicans, who had always been
a weak minority, struggling vain>
for success, supported Abraham
lincoln. A hot and acrimonious
-vass ensued. The Democrats,
Ailiio6 SE ~ division and quarrels
within its own ranks, we're defeated,
md The Republican candidate, Abra-
ham Lincoln, was elected, although
he lacked practically a million of
votes being endorsed by a majority
of the people.
Thus you see, the Democrats,
through division in their own ranks,
placed the Republican party in pow
err, and they have been in power
ever since, lG years, ruling with the
rod of oppression and plumber. This
division in the Democratic ranks,
not only placed the Republican par
ty in power, but brought on civil
war, drenched this land in blood,
bringing desolation, distress and
poverty upon our people. In this
you see "a house divided against it,
self cannot stand.
Fellow~citizens, will you allow
division in the democratic ranks in
the Seventh District to continue to
weaken our party organization and
unity and place Radical Congress-
man in office from this district p
Are you willing to risk such a pos
sibility in order TO crafty your per
sonal preferences w. l.. Good
win, Revenue officer of Ca ters-
vile, popular with his party, has de-
clared himself Republican candid
ate for Congress, determined to run
the race through. Will you allow
him through democratic division to
become the Representative from this
district No, we know you will
not. You hate Radicalism and Rad
zeal corruption too intense to give
that party another supporter in Con-
gress. Then rally around the dem
ocratic nominee, W. H. Dabney,
the incorruptible patriot and staunch
democrat, and defeat all combina
tons that may be in existence. For
once show your patriotism and love
for democratic unity and come to
gether like brethren of one party,
members of one household, and in
the election of Dabuey we will all
have a Representative to be proud
of-one able, pure and good.
