There is servant girl living in family on
Howard street who wouldn't be permitted to
change her place il $40 "a week would be any in-
dueemeut for her 10 stay. She makes it her
special duty to meet all agents and beggars at
the door and to dispose Of them without the
least annoyance to the family. She has rule
to meet each case, aud her rules are perfection.
The door-bell never fools her She can tell a
callers ring from beggar's ring AS certainly as
the bell is touched. When she opens the door
and finds q man with a red goatee, having a
elothes-wringer in his hand, she doesn't wait Tor
him TO hem and haw and say that his clothes
wringer beats all the other wungers ever made.
She gets the start by saying: You seem like
decent, respectable man, and rs a friend warn
you that the owner saw you come up the steps 1,
and he ran 10 the back yard to unchain his Rus
sSan bloodhound.
The man with the red gOatee sliugs that wiring
er over his right shoulder and cauters out of that
neighborhood with his teeth OF edge aud cold
ehils playing tag up and down his back.
The next one may be young lady, who bold.

The next is one of those old chaps who go
about with tears in their eyes willing to work If
work can be had but never finding any work
their health will permit them to do. MADAM,

She motions for him to 60 around to the side
door, and is there to let him 10. She hands him
an az weighing seven pounds, with straight han
die, points to three or four big knots which have
become almost pe,rifed, and softly says: you

She goes in, and he spits on his hands, looks at
that old AK and then folds his little tent and slips

Then the little girl who canvasses for the or

smile, and the hired girl says you poor little

The little girl thoughifuly pursues her way,

OF third term have been finally DIES.
troyed by the action OF the Cincinnati
convention, is pursuing with his ven-
geance those officers OF the government
who were most active in the prosecution
OF the whisky ring, and in bringing to
punishment other plunderers of the
treasury. The latest exhibition of his
revengeiul nature is the removal of Col.
Dyer, OF Missouri, the efficient district
attorney who represented the govern
ment in the whisky trials in St.
Louis, which resulted in sending several
personal friends of the president to
the penitentiary, and gave Babcock n
close chance Of accompanying them.
This was enough to secure for him the
enmity Of the president, but not satisfied
with what he had done in those cases,
Colonel Dyer had the impudence to bring
before a grand jury evidence OF the
frauds committed in the construction OF
The st. Louis custom house. q matter
which, II it had been thoroughly inyesti-
gated, would have revealed some very
unpleasant facts concerning Brother Or

The Horseshoe Blenders, OF this coun
ty, held Democratic ratification meet
ing, few nights ago, that was a marvel
in the way ofgenuinc enthusiasm. -Four
substantial Republican voters mounted
the stand, one after the other, and re-
nounced their allegiance to the Republi-
can party, and asked to be accepted into
good fellowship with the supporters of
Tilden and Hendricks. Farmers sixty
years of age made their maiden speeche,
and the shouts and huzzahs that punct-
ated their discourses might have been
heard, by keen and listening ears, there
IN Cairo. The participators in the meet
ing pledged one another TO work for fouI

OF the county will do their whole duty

Not more than one-eighth of the tax
levied upon the property OF Alexander
county to provide for the payment of the
accrued interest on our city and county
railroad bonds, will be paid. 1t is safe
TO say that OF the S57 900 levied for the
current year, not more than $1,000 will
be paid. This is not because OF an in
disposition upon the part OF our proper
~ holders 10 pay the tax; but because of
their utter inability 10 do so. Next year
the burden will be doubled, and from
year TO year il will increase, until our

present high rate cannot be paid. 1t is
equal TO two dollars and forty-five
cents on every one hundred dollars of the
assessed value OF all the property Of the

amount to seven dollars on the hundred

payment. The man whose business is
not prosperous, would involve himself in
ruin by attempting its payment. These
facts the bondholders should carefully
weigh. Before the lapse of ten years the
country will, under wholesome Demo
cratic rule, regain its wonted prosperity.

The lardOn MONCmenl.

\ Washington special to the CHI icag0
Times contains the following: McKee's
counsel is here again and to-day laid be-
fore the Attorney-General two afiidavits
which he thinks will do great deal to-
ward getting a pardon for Mckee. A
man named Woodruff, of Warren county
Missouri, swears that two of his neigh
bOrs met him one day before Mckee's
trial and told him that they had just been
talkin. with Dyer and that the latter
said. speaking OF Mckee, whether
guilty or not | am going to send
him up" The other affidavit
is by Woodruff also. In it he says
that Henry Pears, living In arrenton,
Mo-, told him that Mudd, of the mar
shal's office, wrote TO him to get live good
Democratic jurymen to try Mckee, and
that when Pears sent the men down he
wrote to Mudd saying 81 send you five
rebels who will send Mckee or any one
else up" There is authority for saying
that the encouragement does not put
much weight on these ailldavits.
A Washington special to the Chicago
Tribune says "The National Re-
publican has long editorial to-
day in favor of the pardon of Mckee
and others, 10 whom it alludes as
innocent parties who have been the vic
inns of persecution and perjury. The
theory OF the article is that the real pro-
icctors of the whisky frauds when caught
attempted to save themselves by implicat-
ing sufficient number of the presidents
official and personal friends to insure
final pardon. The moves on Avery.
Babcock and Mckee are instanced as of

schurz.s Pnper on Blaine.

From the Westlche Post.)
And so James e.. Blaine has been ten.
dered and has accepted the appointment
to the United States senate from Maine
One Of the sadest results of the civil SER
vice system! Instead of refusing the
appointment, as any honest man would
have done in his place, he accepted it.
The house committee are perfectly right
in taking up the investigation against
Blaine again, and in pushing it forward.
Had he been satisfied to remain a
member OF the lower house and have
kept quiet, no one would probably have
thought of prosecuting the sick man any
longer. But now the committee should
continue with the prosecution, and by SO
doing. they may spare the nation the
shame of having a criminal in the
United States senate. 1t is vitality impor-
tant to abolish system of running the
civil service department by which poll
ticiaus like Blaine have become party
leaders. Reform. thorough reform of the
civil service. Is what we want. and the
way to get it is TO follow what Hayes say
about it in his letter OF acceptance.

In the year lS6O the Republican party
declared it to be the duty of the govern.
ment to reserve the public lands for
homes for the settler. Upon that plat
form the party went into power but
since then it has given away enough pub
lie land to provide every homeless man
in the United States with a farm. The
party has again declared that the public
domain should be held for settlers. This
means that IL the party is again placed in
power, it will squander or give away the
balance

DURING the year 1874, the one hundred
and fifty-one clerks in the pension office,
disposed of over 10000 applications.
During the year 1875 the four hundred
clerks in the same department disposed
of only $4,000 applications and still the
Republican senate resist, with might and
main, every effort made by the Demo-
cratic house to lop of the useless, loaf
ing surplus Of pension clerks. This is a
sample of Republican "reform.

In THE year 1872 President Grant de-
clared purpose to elevate and reform
the civil service. The number of civil
employees at that time was 57,905. The
work OF reform was inaugurated, and
good results were anticipated. And
what are the results: The number OF
employees have been increased to 9i,ll9:
the service is swarming with thieves, idle
cormorants and incompetents confusion
and shameful extravaganza are seen in
every department OF the government,
and the civil service has become an actual

MCCARTNEY, of the Metropolis Times, is

much pleased to hear him say that six
hundred Massac county Republicans
have been driven out of the party, blythe
"cussed foolishness" of Willis and others
who affect the role OF leaders. The six
hundred have not found their way to the
