The attempt on part of the Radi-
Gals to buy up Southern Democratic
Congressman and organize the House
in the interests of the Administration
has failed in every instance. South.
ern Congressman are out of the mark
ct since "the party" has lost its grip
on the Southern States.

Our platform is this: So long as
Hayes respects the rights of the States
and individuals. and enforces the laws,
administers the government honestly
and Furnishes the guilty, we are for
him. If he departs from his duty we
are opposed to him.

The ultra Radicals can see no good
to the country in the Southern policy
of Hayes. With them, country
means party, and patriotism rises to
nothing higher than their own self in
ierest or political aspirations.

Chinese Cousins.

The San Francisco Bulletin has the
following on Chinese cousins and their
obligations In the course Of the evil
dence of q Chinese interpreter in the
All Moon murder trial, the witness was
asked what was the application OF the
term "cousin," as used by the Chinese,
or, in other words, what was the relation
ship existing between Chinese calling
each other cousins. He replied that all
Chinese having the same surname were
cousins under the social laws of China /;
that it made no difference from what
State or part of China they hailed from,
they called each other cousins, and that
this applied to the Chinese all over the
world. The witness was asked the ques-
ton eff these cousins did not con-
slider it not only their privilege, but
their duty, To sustain each other, right
or wrong" He answered that they did.
"Suppose," said the counsel, ga mem
Der of the cousin family by the name OF
Wing was killed by a member of a
cousin family named Sung, would not
all the members Of the Wing family be
obliged to pursue the Sung family until
they obtained revenge on one or the
other of the members" eyes, sir" re-
piled the witness.

A Triangular %Scrimmage.

The Newburyport Herald says a novel
fight was witnessed in that city on Sun
day between a rat, hen and rooster. A
hen scratching neal q water cask was
suddenly interrupted by a huge rat,
and neither would give way. Finally
the hen made a pass with her beak,
which the rat lodged, and then the rat
made a spring or her neck, which was
not a success. At this iuncture a cluck
from the hen brought up the rooster,
who. like q gallant cock, came into the
ring to take a hand himself. Then COM
menced & triangular scrimmage with
teeth and beaks. The hen had lent HIM
one right in the smeller, which seemed
very much to anger the rat, who gathered
OF a spring on bis antagonist, which was
~arevented by the cock lighting upon
IN and putting both spurs into his
body, performing the solemn tragedy of
4arikari. Not satisfied with disembowl-
ing their enemy, they picked outhis eyes
and left him.

Many having used "patent" and prepared

all physicians because one failed in giving the
relief promised? Some 60 to California in search
Of gold, and after working hard Cor months
and finding none, return home and say there is
no gold there. Does that prove it /? Many suf-
fering with catarrh and pulmonary affections
have used the worthless preparations that
crowd the market, and in their disappointment
say there is no cure for catarrh. Does that

The Charlotte IN. CO. Observer says
Every now and then a new gold mine is
found in this county in q place where
the metal was not supposed to exist be-
fore. We were shown yesterday some
of the finest specimens we have ever
seen from any gold mine in this section
of the State. They were taken from a
vein on the plantation situated about
seven miles northwest of the city. The
metal is imbedded in soft brown ore,
which is easily worked. The vein has
not been followed far enough to discover
its size, but it promises to prove q very
large one.
