Beadle. of the Cincinnati Gazette, and
Redfeld, of the Commercial, recently
made tour through the South They
found things exceedingly lovely there,
only they feared the negroes would some
time become extinct-they died so much
more rapidly than did the white folks
They did not fully explain why the NOR
tality is greater among negroes than
among white people. Perhaps we can aid
them. The following from the Pickens,
(South Carolina) Sentinel, gives little
light on this dark subject:
1t becomes our duty to record the kill
ing OF another person in our county. A.
P. Hall on the 9th ultimo shot and in.
stantly killed a negro boy nine or ten
years old The circumstances Of the
shooting as brought out in the evidence
before the Coroner's inquest are as fol-
lows: Hall and his stepson, G. B. Ste
phens, were at this place on the day Of
the shooting, and on their return home
they went by Mrs. Ann Grains, where
the boy lived. After arriving at Mrs
Grains, Hall inquired if Willis Taylor,
the negro boy, lived there yet Shortly
after the boy came TO the door, looked in
and laughed. Hall said, There's that
id little niger now. will kill him
before go away" The boy passed on,
and was at or near the gate cutting wood
as Hall and Stephens passed out leaving
the house of Mrs. Grain. Hall went up
to the boy, placed his left hand on the
top of his head and said: "If you have
anything to say, say it, for you have to
leave this world" He then asked Ste
phens, his stepson, for his pistol, and
Stephens handed him knife, but Hall
said, ~ do not want that; hand me your
pistol, Stephens then handed him a pis-
tol, and Hall placing the muzzle of it
against the side of the boys head. fired
and the boy fell dead, shot through the
brain.
And this, which appeared in the daily
papers last week:

Jewels Of the crown Of scotland.

At Edinburg, Scotland, some years since,
the Jewels of the Crown were locked in a box,
that box In smother, and so on, until they
were supposed to be burglar-proof. They we're
then locked up In the vault OF the castle, there
TO remain for one hundred years, the keys
being placed in a mortar and fired into the sea.
Scarce fifty years passed by, and the modern
lock-picker opens the vault and boxes without
trouble. SO the science Of medicine, when
studied with the aid Of chemistry and the mi
croscope, becomes plain and simple, and dis
cases that were regarded incurable genera
tion ago, now readily yield TO remedies en-
ployed by the modern and progressive physi-
clan. A decade of years since, and women
were taught TO believe that their peculiar dis
eases and weaknesses were incurable; but now
hundreds and thousands of once bed-ridden
women In the United States will testify to the
fact that DR.. Pierce's Favoritc Prescription
has effected their perfect and permanent cure
TOLEDO, ONO, Dec. 9Th, 1876.
DR. r. V. PIERCE, Buffalo, N Y:
Dear S1-kbout five years since my wife was
taken sick, and though we employed the best
physicians in our city, yet she gradually grew
worse, so that she was confined to the bed.
Every remedy had tried or could find, failed
10 cure or even give relief. At last procured
bottle of your Favorite Prescription and to
my surprise it gave almost instant relief, and
with little perseverance an entire cure was
effected. Ever gratefully yours,

The I" National" Party.

WHETHER the so-called National"
organization is only another mushroom
or new party, many persons would
like to know. Like other ephemeral
things, as yet it draws the larger pro-
portion of its vote from the Republicans
and thus helps the Democrats. But the
continual pandering of the Democratic
demagogues to the worst socialistic
heresies may presently produce differ
ent result. Every knavish or foolish
thing which the Nationals propose,
Democratic leaders are teaching DEM
ocra:ic voters to accept. On the Re-
publican side, the very necessity of self
preservation must in time force leaders
and journals to expose and uproot these
heresies. When it comes t. be seen
that paltering with this form of Com
munism only insures Democratic vic
tory in the nation, in States and in dis
tricts, and that the Republican party
must fight it or die, then we shall see
Republican voters won back, as they
were from Grangerism and from Infla-
ton. The appeal TO former Republic
ans will become very strong when it is
seen that independent votes can only in
sure the complete triumph of Democra-
cy. Whenever that time comes, and
Republican voters begin to refuse TO
act as catspaws for Democracy, either
the new organization will perish, as
other mushrooms have perished, or a
very different result will follow the per-
sistent teachings of Democratic dema-
gogues.
1t is quite within the bounds of possi-.

GLOVER is a hero, an uncommon one.
After numerous attempts he is now on
the highway to success as an investi-
gator of crooked dealings and corrupt
practices. His net has been cast in
many places and hauled up empty many
times, but he now has it spread in that
portion of the Treasury pool known as
the Registers Office, and some good
sized fish are seen struggling in its
meshes. They are not just the kind of
fish Glover set out to catch, but he dare
not let them escape, although he is
manfully trying to do so. When he
cast his net into the Registers office,
with the assistance of two experts, he
never dreamed that Democrats would
be brought to the surface. Recently
he inadvertently entangled Gen. Ban
ming, whom his "experts" discovered
to have drawn the same pay twice while
serving as Lieutenant-COlOnel in the
army. But Banning extricated himself
and rushing to the Treasury Depart
ment settled the old account by reim-
bursting the Treasury, and Glover prom
ised to say nothing about the matter.
The fact, however, leaked out, and now
Banning does not entertain the SYM
pathethic feelings toward Glover, as an
investigator, that he did before he was
scooped' up. Since Banning was
caught, Glover has been proceeding
with great care, but Notwithstanding
his caution some others of his Demo-
cratic brethren are likely to be brought
to the surface. In the Registers office
are kept the papers and vouchers of
all closed accounts with the United
States. Glover, with two experts, has
been looking over these accounts, and
is now struggling to hide the results of
his examinations.
When the House committee of which
Mr.. Morrison was Chairman went to
Louisiana in the fall of 1876, to investi-
gate the conduct of the Presidential
election, they took with them as Ser
geant-at-Arms Simpson X. DOnavan,
late Assistant-Doorkeepe and John X.
Polk, late Doorkeeper, the latter acting
as Donavan's assistant. The expendi-
lures of that committee, according to
the records of the Registers office,
we're $32,000 and vouchers for that
sum were submitted by Messrs. Dona-
van and Polk. These expenditures were
for travelling, hotel and other necessary
expenses. The vouchers were indorsed
by Mr.. Morrison, as Chairman of the
committee, and the money was paid
fromthe contingent fund of the House
by the Disbursing Clerk. 1t now leaks
out that Glover's experts claim that
large number of these vouchers are
fraudulent, having been duplicated for
the same expenses, and paid twice, and
one of the experts is of opinion that
Donavan and Polk profted by the
frauds. Glover and his experts are
now going over the papers in the hope
that their suspicious may prove to be
not well founded. Had the parties thus
implicated been Republicans, Glover
would have reported the facts and
scrutinized afterward. = Washington
