Mr.. Tnden's Cabinet.

From the Baltimore Gazotte.l
II Mr.. Tilden is elected President
there can be no doubt that he win
call around him as his constitution
al advisers some of the very stron-
gest Emen in the country. Charles
Francis Adams, Of Massachusetts,
would in all probability be made
Secretary of State; Horatio Sey-
mour, Secretary Of the Treasury;
Mr.. Curtin, of Pennsylvania, Seore-
tary of War, and Charles "A. Dana,
Secretary of the Interior, and so on.
A cabinet made up of gentlemen
like those we have mentioned, work
ing earnestly and tremendously
with Mr.. Tiiden for retrenchment
and reform and the welfare of the
whole people, would soon restore
the republic to its prosperity, puri-
fy the public service and elevate
the character of our government at
home ana abroad. Confidence
would be everywhere restored, and
we should soon see an end OF the
the ills and misfortunes under
which we are now suffering.

ed to dispair of the ultimate raising
of the eolored race to anything like
a useful or honorable position in
Southern society. and thought they
would finally collect on the low
coast and river lands, where whites
could not live, and there flourish or
die out as the case might be. He
spoke in the highest terms of the
kindly feeling Of the people for
their former slaves. In many cases
they remain on the old plantations
and receive much the same protee-
tion and care as before the war.
With all its deficiencies in the mat
ter of labor, the South is no place
for working men without capital,
prices being at what would be n
starvation point at the North. Still
with a very small capital, s man
can get on in the world and soon
become independent. As Mr.. Col
Inns is a lifelong Republican, his
statements and opinions relating to
POLITICS IN THE SOUTHERN STATES
are entitled to peculiar weight. Up
on this point he said that in all his
travel and sojourn in the South, he
had heard of no Northern man who
was not well treated. OF all the
hundreds whom he had induced to
cmigrate, and whom he knew as
Northern settlers, there are not
more than half dozen who are not
satisfied, and pleased with their
neighbors. Those who get into
trouble there would do so in any
locality; it is in the men. The talk
of ostracism is nonsense. All classes
there understand that emigration
from the North is the one thing
they need to develop and build up
the country. Is it likely, SIR. Col
Inns asks, that they would turn
around and abuse those whom they
urge to come among them and wei
come as their best friends? He
could not express in strong enough
terms his sense of the warm anc
hearty welcome which enterprising
Northern settlers receive. The old
war feeling is extinct. Mr.. Collin!
remembers but one man who retains
any feeling of bitterness or desires
separation from the North. Upol
being questioned as to the outrag
| business he pronounced it, so far a
any political significance is con
cerned, an unqualified humbug
There arc rough places in the Soutl
as in the North. Some of the Mis-
sissippi river towns, for example
where it would not be pleasant 70
a quiet man to live, but these place
can be avoided. Such cases as this
at Hamburg are exceptional. Th
South in general is as quiet an
and peaceful as any part of tn
, Union.

Our Minister'S sermon.

The minister said last night said he:
sDout ba afraid of givin',
If your life amt worth nothin' 20 other folks,
Why, what is the use of hyin' ~
And that's what l say 70 my wife, says 1,
There's Brown the mis'rable sinner,
He'd sooner beFgar would staTve than give
a cent toward buy ing dinner.
1 tell you our mislster is prime, he is,
But couldn't quite determine,
When I heard him givin' it right and left,
just who was hit by his SCI mon.
OF course there couldn't be no mistake
When he talked of long winded prayin',
For Peters and Jenkins, they sat and scowled
at every word he was sayin'.
And the minister he went on to say,
There's various kinds ofeheatiu',
And religions as good for every day,
As it IS to bring to meetin'.
| don't thiuk much of the man that gives
The loud amen at my pTeaehin,'
And spends his time the followin' week
In eheatin' and over reaehin'.
guess that dose was bitter enough
For man like Smith 20 swallow;
But noticed he didn't open his mouth,
Not once after thet to holler;
HurTah, says for the minister
Ofcourse | said it quiet
Give Us some more Oflhis plain talk,
It's very refreshing diet.
The minister hit 'em every time,
And when he spoke of fashion,
And riggin' ont in bows and things,
As wOman's rnlipg passion,
And coming to church to see the styles,
l couldn't help a winkin'
And nudgin' my wife, says I, "That's you" B"
And I guess it set her a thinkIu'.
Says I to myself, that sermons pat,
But man Is queer creation,
Ard Pm much afraid that most of the folks
Won't take the application.
Now, if he had said q word about
Ny personal mode of sinnin',
/ I'd have gone to work to right myself,
And not set there GRIMM.
Just then the minister says, says he,
"And now I've come to the fellers
/ Who've lost this shower by usin' their friends
AS a sort o. moral umbrellas.
/ Go home" says he, "and find your faults,
Instead of huntin' your brothers,
/ Go home," says he, "and wear the coats
| You've tried to fit for others"
| My wife she nudged, and Brown be winked,
| And there was lots o. smilin',
/ And lots o. loOllin' at our pew,
/ 1t sot my blood a bihn'.
/ Says / to myself, our minister
/ Is gettin' u little bitter,
| I'll tell him, when the meetin's out, that !
Amt at all that kind OF q cTitter.

If three men were to have their
legs and arms broken, and were to
remain all night exposed to the in
clemency of the weather, the whole
country would be in state of the
most dreadful agitation. Look at
the Wholesale deaths on the field of
battle, ten acres covered with dead,
and half dead, and dying; and the
shrieks and agonies of many tbous-
and human beings. There is more
of misery inflicted on mankind by
one of war than by all the civil pee
ulations and aggressions of a cen
tury. Yet it is a state into which
the mass of mankind rush with the
greatest ayidity, hailiig official mur-
derers in scarlet and gold and cock
feathers as the greatest and mOst
glorious of human creatures. 1t /:
the business of every wise and gooc
man to set himself against this pas
sion for military glory, which really
seems the most fruitful source o
human misery.

he applied to the president of a
railway company and wanted to put
lightning rods on all of his cars.

''What in the world do we want

collect rents from, and take posses
sion Of all property in Shelby coun-
ty bought in by the State for State
and county taxes for the years 1870,

Columbia Journal: Well, to use
fastidious language of some of the
fancy boys, "big crop" is no name
for it. To look at the corn growing
in this county, now, is absolutely
astounding. What will we do with
it? And the cotton gives us a ia
vorable fall, and we will have to i'm
port labor to pick it. With a full
crop of wheat already harvested
and half sold, with an unheard OF
crop of corn, and the best crop oi
cotton for years, what is to keep
the people of this country from be-
ing Jolly?

We regret to see those who ''pro

tions to Prof. Huxley, the mOlecule

out of his way to insult the faith Of
Christians and the civilization of

he might deserve a high position,
but as a gratuitous assailant Of rev

to the respect of believers. An in

A Tall Story.

There is on exhibition in a store
on State street, in this city, perhaps
the most remarkable couple in the
world-a man and a woman who
are giants in stature. They are Mr..
and Mrs. Nj. V. Bates, whose home
is now in Seville, Medina county,
Ohio. They are both seven feet
eleven and half inches in height, the
husband weighing AS pounds, while
she weighs Alb pounds. The com
mon sized visitor, when placed be
tween them s1els very much as Gull

among the giants. Mr., or Captain
Bates as he is called, is a quite fine
ly proporhoned man, of ruddy,

and military looking in his regi-
mentals.
His immense stature is not so no.

actually taller for a woman than he
is for a man. They are evidently

THE TRIBUNE AND BLAINE.

The New York Tribune, which since
the death of Horace Greeley has been
run as an independent Journal, is now
owned by Jay Gould, and displays con-
siderable zeal in defending Blaine. Jay
Gould was associated with James FISK,
Jr., in the stock brokers' business, ana
is considered one of the most un-
scrupulous operators in Wall Street.
He is large owner of Union PacIhc
Railroad stock, and it is surmlsed that
the Tribune interest in his welfare Is
by special direction of its owner. The
New York Times, a straight out Re
publican paper, is of the opinion that a
defense Of B.aIne, whose name is con-
nectsd with dubious transactions With
the Union Pacific Railroad, by a
journal owned by Jay Gould, is not
calculated to inspire confidence In
Blaine, or improve his chances for the
Presidency.
