LIQUOR REGISTERS. has hit upon
the plan of making liquor drinkers pay the
State debt. The register operates in this
wise. Each drink Of whisky and of beer,
sold over the counter, is registered by the
turning of crank, the former paying TO the
State tax of .! cents, and the latter of one
cent The saloon keepers have, of course,
arranged that the tax should come out of the
consumer, a drink of whisky having been
put up from ten cents to fifteen, and the size
Of the beer being reduced SO as to make mp
Cor the diminished profits. 1t is expected
and the figures fully sustain the expec-
tation-that the new tax will bring to the
State nearly 81, 0O0. 900 per annum-

The GREAT FRaUp.-To assert and
maintain that the vote Of Louisiana was
rightfully given to Hayes, is to assert and
defend a frand 50 gross that every decent
man, whatever his politics, must blush
with shame whenever the subject Is pre-
sented to his thoughts. To defend it is a
crime against American institutions, and a
damning wrong against the constitution
Of the country.

PoLITICIL BLUNDERING--The radical
politicians who are striving to keep alive
the Southern question and make what
they call an issue of it in the next Con-
gress, or at some period in the remote
future, are simply wasting their time.
When Governor Hampton was installed
in South Carolina and Governor Nichols
in Louisiana, the Southern question was
buried without the hope of resurrection.
There were, undoubtedly, timid people
than who looked upon the president plan
with GOODNESS and distrust; who called it
a surrender and trucking to the slave
power and all that sort of thing. They
were afraid of what they termed the ex-
pertinent of putting the leaders of the civil
war in power, forgetting that some of
those leaders had been in power long
time before Mr. Hayes was even thought
of for the presidency. MIR. Akerman had
been in the civil War, and he was one Of
General Grants cabinet officers. General
Lonsstreet had been in the civil war, and
held an important federal office in New
Orleans. Mr.. Settle, of North Carolina
and Florida, had been in the civil war,
and was made a minister and judge and
the president Of the Grant re-nominating
convention, the most enthusiastic meeting
of the party that vas ever held. Mr.. Orr.
of South Carolina had been IFsthe civil
war, and he was sent to Russia as our
representative. Nearly score of gentle
men similarly hcnored might be mention
ed, but these are sufficient. But the fact
is. the president did not place either Gov
Hampton or Governor Nichols in office
He simply allowed the people of those
states to govern themselves in their own
way without the interference Of the efederal
army

REpUDIArED.-The New York republi-
can state convention, by vote of three
to one, refused to endorse the Fraudu-
lent President, and voted down a propo-
sition declaring that Hayes has good
title to the office, When the radicals de-
clares that his title is defective it is time
for democrats to join in kicking him out
of his stolen office.

Breaking Down.


Men who often have their hands full,
are over-crowed with business and drive
hurriedly along at it, but they may not
be overworked. We cannot always tell
when we are overworked. A man does
not always know himself no more than
he knows the strain on the handspring
of his watch what will break it. But
there comes time when the watch stops.
Men break bown in this way. They go
on, day after day, the pressure bearing
harder each successive day, until the
vital force gives out, and the machine
stops. 1t is great pity that the indica-
tions of this state of thing cannot be
seen beforehand, and if seen regarded.
1t is one of the last things that men
will admit to themselves, much less to
others. They flatter themselves it is
only little weariness of the flesh which
will pass off with a few hours rest
when, in fact, every nerve power and
resource are exhausted, and the system
is driven to work by sheer force of the
will. When the oil on the shaft or in
the oil box is exhausted every revolution
of the wheel wears on the revolving
part, and soon will ruin it. The same Is
true of the human body.

What Men Need Wives For.

Ii is not to sweep the house, and
make the bed, and darn the socks, and
cook the meals chiefly that man wants
wife. III this Is all he needs, hired
help can do II cheaper than wife. If
this Is all, when young man calls to
see young lady send him In the pantry
to taste the bread and cakes she has
made; send him to inspect the needle
work and bed-making, or put broom
Into her hands and send him to witness
its use. Such thing are important, and
the wise young man will quietly look
after them. But what true man most
wants of true wife is her companion
ship, sympathy, courage and love. The
way of life has many dreary places in 1t,
and man needs companion to go with
him. A man is sometimes overtaken
with misfortune; he meets with failure
and defeat trials and temptations be-
set him, and he needs one to stand by
and sympathize. He has some stern
battles to fight with poverty, with enc
mics and with sin and he needs
woman that, while he puts his arms
around her and feels that he has some
thing to fight for, will help him fight !;
that will put her lips to his ears and
whisper words of council, and her hands
to his heart and impart new inspiration.
All through storm and through sun
shine, conflict and victory, through adj
verse favoring winds, man needs a
woman's love. The heart yearns for it.
A sisters or a mothers love will hardly
supply the need.
