Our Washington correspondent under

account Of the digni6ed crit OF ex-senator
Powell Clayton. from the national capital |:
Ex senator Powell Clayton, Of ArkAnsas,
one Of the ex-moral idea statesmen, bade .
final adieu to Washington last night i'm q

way. He disputed the bill of his landlord
at the Congressional Hotel, where ne had

the bar, aud. taking bottle, bruised the
face Of the landlord considerably, and i'm
mediately left the hotel with his family.
The landlord swore out O warrant for as

them are incorporating greenback men;
the others were about equally divided be-
tween the old parties. The selections Vt
men they made for the various ofices are
acknowledged to be about the best that has
ever been made in this city, and if our
workingmen will do their duty to them
selves and families, they will be elected
BY large majority. But few German
demagogues, foremost among whom is the
editor of the German paper here, are try
ing TO excite jealousy and bitterness among
our German citizens, stigmatzing this
movement a temperance ore. This il
utterly erroneous, as cnly about three Of
the delegates and five Of Il o candida ates

they are al sober, industrious and ex-
tremely liberal in their views. However, if
the hummer element here intends to force

We want equal rights. We want the same

a better right, for We are industrious and
willing to work They are lazy. Only
give us the free use of the national money
upon our security-labor-and there is no
other security in all this country for any
money loaned. Labor alone pays the
principal and interest With the national
money loaned to us upon the very same
terms that 1t is now loaned to the national
bankers, to-wit gratis, to prosecute our
Industries, and we will own all the proper
ty In the country in few years for then
there will Ce no more living upon usury or

build our own houses, buy our own lands
and work them, giving our property as
security for the loan. There would no
longer be any depreciations II the value Of
property; pioneers would no longer be
driven into the wilderness to seek For
themseles homes. Peace and plenty would
reign among the dwellers In the land; men
and women would be free, and walk up
right before God and man, and not be
compelled, as they now are, to bow in meek
submission before arrogant mortals, whose
only superiority consist in having amassed

right to do, and it is telling. Let these

They, rather than patrohize men who are

Who Ate Roger Williams +!

MACON CITY, Mo, May 81, 1S77.-What is
meant by the question, " Who ate Roger
Williams" Answer in your paper, and
oblige ANOTHER INQUIRER.
Last week we did not know Roger
Williams had been eaten, and so an
swered. Since that time a friend has
given us information of the event, and it
occurred in this wise: Roger Williams
was a native of Whales, was a Puritan,
and the founder of the colony of Rhode
Island. He died in Providence 1888.
Many years afterwards, the private bury
ing ground where he was inferred was
searched for the remains of himself
and wife, for the purpose of erecting a
monument over them. Very little was
f0nnd. The shape of the coffins could
only be traced by a black line in the
earth. The rusted hinges and nails and
a round wooden knot alone remained in
one grave, while single lock OF braided
hair was found in the other. Near the
grave stood an apple tree, the larger
root of which pushed its way to the pre-
else spot occupied by the skull Of Roger
Williams, and, turning, passed around it
al d followed the direction of the back
bone to the hips. Here it divided into
two branches, sending one along each leg
to the heel, when the roots turned up
ward to the toes, the whole bearing a
striking resemblance to the human term.
These roots are now deposited in the
museum of Brown university. 1t was
thus found that the organic matter-thc
flesh, the bones, of Roger Williams-had
passed into an apple tree, transmitted
into woody fibre, bloomed in fragrant
blossoms, and bore luscious fruit, which
fiom year to year has been gathered and
eaten. Those, therefore, who ate the
apples from this tree ate Roger Williams.

Symptoms OF Il Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side under the edge
of the ribs, increases on pressure ;
sometimes the pain is in the leNside ;
the paticnti is rarely able lie on the left
side sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder-blade, and it frequently
extends to the top of the shoulder, and
is sometimes mistaken for rheuma-
tism in the arm. The stomach affect
ed with loss of appetite and sickness ;
the bowels in general are costive,
sometimes alternative with lax; the
head is troubled with pain, ,accompan-
led with dull, heavy sensation in the
back part. There is generally a con-
siderable loss of memory, accompan-
led with painful sensation of having
left undone something which ought to
have been done. A slight, dry cough
is sometimes an attendant. e1he pa
tient complains of WEAKNESS and de-
bility he is easily startled, his feet are
cold or burning, and he complains of a
pricklv sensation of the skin his spir-
its are low: and although he is satis-
fed that exercise would be beneficial
to him, vet he can scarcely summon
up fortitude enough TO try it In fact
he distrusts every remedy. Several oi
the above symptoms attendthed disease,
but cases have occurred where few of
them existed, yet examination of the
body, afterdeath, has shown the LIVER
to have been extensively deranged.

TO the flag (the change taking effect in
May, 1895 for Vermont and Kentucky,
the act being passed only after consider
able debate, its opponents believing that
the flag should be preserved in its origi-
nal form in perpetuity. The war of
1812-14 was fought under this banner
In 1918, bill reducing the stripes to
the original number of thirteen, and
directing the adoption of stars equal to
the number of the states, new star to be
added on the fourth of July next sue
ceeding the admission of each new state,
was passed and approved. This was the
design of Captain Samuel G. Reid, who
in 1914 defended so heroically the brig
General Armstrong against q superior
British force in Fayal roads, though his
suggestion that the stars be arranged in
one large star was not formally adopted.
The stars in the unions of flags used by
the war department are generally thus
arranged: in the navy flags they are in
variably set in parallel lines. The blue
union used separately is the union jack.
The revenue flag, adopted in 1899, has
sixteen perpendicular stripes, alternately
red and white, with white union bear
ing the national arms in dark blue. The
union used separately is the revenue
jack. The yacht flag is the same as the
national flag, but on the blue union it
bears a white toul-anchor in q circle of
thirteen states.

An EScAnn.

Capt. Gunson, of the ship Patterdale
relates a thrilling story of the escape OF
one of his ships boys from the NAV of a
shark. The ship was in the tropics, with
wind enough to keep the canvass from
Topping, and one of the apprentices
was over the weather side, cleaning off
The captain, standing on the poop
deck, noticed that the boy was careless,
and warned him to look out for himself
and not tumble overheard. The ship
was going about three knots an hour, and
the sea almost as calm as a mill pond.
The lad, in a moment of caTelessness, lost
his balance, and fell from the platform
slung over the side. The captain saw
the accident, and threw him q ladder,
which the boy grasped, and clambered
up on the rounds as the ship left him
astern.
No sooner had the boy settled himself
on the ladder than brace of large blue
sharks ranged up alongside, and actually
reared their heads out of the water in
their eagerness to taste the young sailor.
The boy screamed Justify, and grew half
frantic from terror. The ship was hove
to, and boat was lowered. Still the
boy hung unto the ladder. trying to
keep his legs free from the swapping oi
the vicious sharks, which seemed actu.
ally to jump out of the water to get at
/ him. After some twenty-five minutes o1
! horrible suspense, a boat was lowered
and he got intS it. As soon as the hoy
| found himself safe he tainted. II was q

The object in presenting this is not so
much to illustrate the great Importance
of manufactures as to show how carelessly
we use the advantages we have. Is there
any good reason why the milch cow OF
Connecticut should annually yield sixty
seven pounds of butter, while the COW of
Mississippi yields but fifteen pounds?
Is there any good reason why the COW of
New York should annually yield eighty
pounds of butter, while that of Tennessee
yields but forty, that of Georgia but
twenty, and that of Alabama fifteen? Is
there any good reason why Massachusetts,
should sell 100000 gallons of milk
from her 10000 milch COWS, while
Georgia sells 10000 gallons from just
twice as many COWS? The butter crop
of New York, in 1870, was worth $780,
090, 900 at twenty-five cents per pound.
The cotton crop of Georgia, that year,
was worth but S25.000, 600. The butter,
cheese and milk of New York, for that
year, were worth $40, 900, 900, if sold even
at present prices. The cotton crop OF
Georgia and Alabama, for that year, at
present prices, would bring but forty
three million dollars. The agricultural
bureau at Washington reports larger
Weld of hay, per acre, in the south, for
years past, than in the north; yet Mas
sachusetts, not One-eighth as large as
Georgia, produces six hundred thousand
tons for her horses and cattle, while
Georgia produces but eleven thousand
tons. Little Rhode Island, with but
five counties and one -fortieth the area of
Mississippi, produces ten times as much
hay as the latter state.

have selected this table because one
of the largest branches of the Memphis
wholesale trade is in cotton goods, 1t
shows where they are mostly manufac
tured. a month ago asked two of our
we'll known and leading dry goods firms
where they bought their Georgia cotton
goods, and the reply of both was in
New York" These merchants have a
large and steadily growing trade with
the retail merchants of Tennessee, Ala
bama, Mississippi and Arkansas, and if
such goods could be manufactured here
the wholesale trade of these merchants
would soon be quadaupled. Look at
the amountof operatives, and the amount
paid out for the raw cotton. With cot
ton factories here, would not demand
for other factories, greater or smaller,
spring up? Has not the trade in straw
berries here built up large manufacture
of boxes, baskets, etc, and given an ad-
ditional demand fo- lumber and work
