AN ARIST0GRAT OF TIE HILL COUNTRY
IN VIRGINIA.

Squire Stnbble is an aristocrat of the
ancient carbuncle type. and his career
justly entities him to all the regards ac-
corded to the proudest of our Anglo
Saxon ancestry. In his youth bold, illit-
crate and INSCRIPTIONS as a feudal baron,
he entered this country penniless adj
yentnrer. and squatted on territorial
domain, which, by dint of club and the
common law Cup there) he has success
fully defended against all comers By a
chlvalrlc coup de main he won fair and
willing bride from an ugly rival and un-
willing parent. and with study perseve-
rance he wrung independence from the
more Grabbed aud unwilling soil of his
squatter sovereignty. After the estab-
lishment of property and family came
dignity and honor. Stubble was made a
magistrate, and the champion of fist and
thumb-nail became the bulwark of the
law. Hence his grammarless good sense
lifted him to a seat in the State Legisla-
tnre. At Richmond our hero found
world he didn't understand, and that un-
stood him as little. His first care was to
establish himself in quarters at once lux
urious and economical. Fried liver for
breakfast, and your boots blacked every
morning, whether he would or not, all for
three dollars week. Barring an occa-
sional treat at the Governors he didn't
circulate much socially, and in the Capt.
tol he never opened his mouth, except to
admit peanuts and vote. A Representa-
tive from the adjoining county, and with
less brain and more tongue, did all the
talking for him, and in return for the
service commanded his steadfast and
unquestioning support.
Having seen the elephant. Stubble was
satisfied, and could never be induced to
try it again. He had feasted on fried
liver, had his boots BACKED, drank with
the Guv'ner, and sot in the Legislator. ;"
Thereafter he became re-
cognized power in county politics, and
the influential patron of candidates for
office. turning his back on the rough
heads. and favoring such as knew Latin
and had pretentionsto to gentility. Porte

A BURGLAR SHOT DEAD.

From tie Charleston Journal Of Commerce,
About half past o'clock the other
morning Mr.. X. Herbert Jones, who
resides in the house northweLt corr
ner of Drake and Blake streets, was
aroused from sleep by the noise of
some one endeavoring to effect an
entrance into the house from the
lower piazza. Jumping out of bed,
be ran into the room OF his father,
Mr.. Jesse Jones, and awak ened him.
Mr.. Jones and his son then rushed
out into the upstairs piazza with
their guns, and the burglar, hearing
the noise up stairs, ran through the
piazza below to the steps. He was
hailed three times and told to stop,
but not obeying, Mr.. Jesse Jones and
his son fired simultaneously, and the
burglar rolled down the flight of steps
leading to the street, dead, clinching
in his hands Urge butcher knife
some two feet in length.
After dressing, the Jonoses went
down stairs, and found that the
blinds had been cut and the window
opened. Dr. Aldrich examined the
body, finding some ten buckshot
wounds in the back of the neck,
which took downward direction,
and entered the bowels.

a MILITARY TOOL.

RUGER, the military General, who
barricaded the doors of the South
Carolina House Of Representatives
and refused, at the point of the bay
onet, admission to the democrats,
unless they had passes from Cham
berlain's partizan's, exceeded duty,
law and authority, and should be
made to feel the strong arm of pow,
er, as we'll as use it, He should be
court-martialed and dismissed from
the United States Army, which he
has disgraced, He should remem.
Der that the very people he oppress-
ed and insulted were taxed to help
pay his salary.

THE THREE STATES.

In South Carolina, up. to yester~
day, the State capitol was in pos
session of armed Federal soldiers and
Chamberlain's bogus Legislature.
General Ruger occupies a room in
the State capitol, while troops stand
guard. The Supreme Court adj
iourned and refused to hold session
under the menace of Federal bayo>
nets.
The Democratic portion of the
Legislature, with more than ia quo
rum, organized in another ball and
proceeded to business. Both Legis
latures recognize the Senate. The
returns however have been handed
over to the Chamberlain Ruger Bay
onet Legislature, of less than a
quorum.
The Senate adjourned over till
to>day, when the question Of the
gubernatorial vote will be consider
ed.
OF the two legislatures at Colum
bia, one is composed of Sc demo-
Gratis and two colored Republicans,
and other IS Republicans. 1t is sta
ted that three Republican Senators
will vote with the democrats, max
ing dead lock in that body.
1t is also stated that two Hayes
electors will refuse to accept ceriitl-
Gates from Chamberlain.
In Florida things look moro hopes
full. Baker county with her 185
majority for Tilden i! is thought will
stand, while Clay county with %
votes left out by the Radicals, will
be put in. The democrats are now
attacking, with fair success, the 2l9
fraudulently injected votes in Ala
chua county, Fla. The managers
testify to the fraud.
In Louisiana, the returning boart
is trying to keep the delayed returns
out, but the contest is going on, ..an(
the democrats are doing their bes
to have fair count.

THE DESPoT.

THE "torch and sword" are what
the Radical incendiaries and Federal
soldiery use in South Carolina to
foist Chamberlain and Hayes over
the people against their wishes. 1t
"fatigues indignation" to think of
Grants hypOcritical whine "Let us
have peace" while he smokes his
cigars, plays with bull-pups, and
perpetrates these shameless outrages.
Yet Grant does all this under the
fiimsy pretext of smOthering domesN
tic violence and preserving liberty
and guaranteeing Republican form
of Government. ooh, liberty how
many crimes have been committed
in thy name !"
This usurping despot and prosti-
tutor of power, in the preparation Of
rape upon our sister State of South
Carolina and the Goddess of Liber-
ty, should be impeached for high
crimes and misdemeanors, and treas
on against law and tho Constitution.
A more INSCRIPTIONS despOt never
used military force to baser purposes

rendered at the ballot box.

THE New York Sun presents the
case very strongly to business men
and manufacturers of the North by
showing that the fellows who are

three States, who are opposed by
the entire capital and enterprise, the
honesty, solid worth and intelligence

wrath of the solid industry and en-

upon the party which has recklessIy
used these base agents to destroy the
prosperity of the country in their
desperate struggle for power.

WELL MARRIED.

A Chicago woman has been the
wife of four brothers. She began
with the oldest ten years age, when

younger, and after three years got

was divorced from her after about
the same period of welded life. =
She is now the wife of the fourth,
and they seem to I've contentedly,

BEN Hill thinks he can be of more
service in the Senate than in the

and people demand that he should be

Gov. Smith, General Gartrell, and
HerscheI V. Johnson, are all spoken
of as competitors for the "glittering
prize" Any of them would fill the
position with credit and ability.
