1 Spectacle.

What a spectacle--a nation trying to
brand with dishonor it's highest chosen
rulers upon the testimony Of a self-con.
fessed periurer, the champion Liar of the
agel Here are men accusing the chief
officials OF a Republican administration,
mainly on the evidence Of a person whose
scoundrelism is SO palpable and complete
that neither those who place him on the
stand nor his own counsel have the
slightest idea what unexpected and in
explicable perjury he may at any time
commit In order to dodge the penalties

PAYMENT FOR SLAVES DEMANDED.
Repeal of the Fourteenth Amendment to
Be Pressed.

hepeaI OF the FOurte enth Amendment to
Be Pressed.
The Macon tGa.) Telegraph and
Messenger calls for the repeal OF the
Fourteenth amendment, that the South
ern people may extort payment for their
liberated slaves. It says: "Those
slaves were not cannon, and bayonets.
and armed foes, in the late so-called re-
bellion, and in no sense contraband.
They were our property, solemnly and
specifically recognized as such, and duly
protected and guaranteed by that con-
stitution and Union which our adver-
saries alleged they took up arms to
maintain intact and defend. Moreover.
they took no part in that fratricidai
struggle, save when forced to join the
ranks of the invader, and wage war
against their best friends and bene-
factors. On the banditti principle
that might makes right and to the
victor belongs the spoils, only, there
fore, can this robbery of an impover-
ished people be justified" Again: "We

we have helped to extinguish the pub
lie debt, and time has healed the gaping
wounds of the past, when reason and
brotherly love shall have fully regained
the ascendency over prejudice and hate,
even though it shall be the next genera
tion, brave and honorable people of
the same blood and lineage will see to
it that the value of our property in
slaves shall be returned to those from
whom it was wrongfully wrested. It
will do no harm to keep this question
before the people, that they may pre-
serve the records and proper memoranda
of their former slaves, in the event that
a returning sense of justice on the part
of the Federal Government may com
pensate them, at least in part, for the
loss OF this portion of their rightful
property"

A Maine Fish Story.

Col. Winer describes, with the relish
OF true sportsman, one of the most re-
markable occurrences in the matter of
trout-fshing which had yet been record
ed. 1t came under his own observation,
and is in no respect fancy sketch. Mr..
Marshall, of Boston, was fishing alone
in his boat, In Rangely lake, Maine, with
a light trout rod which would not sus-
tain pound in dead weight at its tip,
and very slight line. His leader was
of the finest gut, and the hook upon it was
baited with a live minnow. Adult ten
feet from the end of the line was a
second hook, baited with an earth-worm.
Mr.. Marshall bad just thrown his line
when he was startled by sharp bite
and almost Immediately after by a
second. Two big fish were hooked, and
then began battle of most peculiar
kind, In which it required all the address
Mr.. Marshall could command to prevent
the struggling trout from swapping the
frail line and freeing themselves. For
one hour and eighteen minutes the COM
bat lasted. when at last the innermost OF
the two fish was played to the side Of the
boat and meshed in the landing net and
unlocked, while his fellow, well-nigh
exhausted, was working beneath the
boat. In two minutes more the
second fish was safely trapped, and
it was found that one Of them weighed
five and half pounds and the other
four and half pounds, making total
OF ten pounds at one haul. Boston

"We people that work"
Said the bee with jerk,

Only insects like you,
Who have nothing to do,
Can keep up perpetual hopping"

And thoughrfully hunched up his knees:

And for me to do nothing but hopping

GraneamOther's Advice


want to give you two or three rules.
One is
Always look at the person you speak
to. When you are addressed, look
straight at the person who speaks to
you. Do not forget this.
Another is
Speak your words plainly. Do not
mutter nor humble. If words are worth
saying, they are worth pronouncing dis
tinctly and clearly.
A third is
Do not say disagreeable things. II
you have nothing pleasant to say. keep
silent.
A fourth is-and, oh, children. re-
member it all your lives
Think three times before Won sneak
once!
Have you something to do that YOU
find hard and would prefer not to do .?
Then listen to wise old grandmother.
DO the hard things first, and get it over
with. 1t you have done wrong, go and
confess it. If your lesson is tough, mas
ter 1t. Ii the garden is to be weeded.
weed 1t first and play afterward. Do
the thing you don't. like to do first. and
then, with a clear conscience, try the
rest.-Christ5as at Work.
Got His Children Mixed
The absent-minded make laughter
enough by their bl0nders, but for the
extreme OF con1ical carelessness here is
the premium example:
A Massachusetts exchange is respon-
BILE for story of father who, feeling
aggrieved that his son did not pass an
examination for promotion from a
primary to an intermediate school,
called upon the committee for explana-
ton, bringing the boy with him. The
father said he wanted to know how it
happened that Charlie did not pass.
The committee informed him that there
was no such boy as Charlie G. examined.
OF course he was, and here is the
boy to speak for himself. How is it,
Charlie?'
The boy neekly replied, "My name
is not Charlie"
cit isn't Charlie? What is it, then 2"
Il am Frank" said the boy.
$50 you are" apologized the father.
81 thought it was Charlie. T have so
many | can hardly tell one boy from an
other"
The puzzled papa received the desired
information, and then took "Frank :"
home, probably to take account of stock.
