The NATIONAL pARrY.-Itis aptly remarked by

an exchange that
Gwen the Democratic newspapersin North Car
DINA acknowledge that the large vote poled by
the Nationals in that State at the recent election
tends to make future contests doubtful, particular
ly if there should be fusion between the new
party and the Republicans. The Legislature just
chosen will contain almost as many Nationals as
Republicans, and hereafter the FIRST ma. ID party
may readily attain such position as to give it
the balance Of power. There are indict ons that
by a coalition between the Nationals and the Re-
publicans the First, Second Fourth ano fifth Con-
gressional Districts can be carried st the
Democrats, and the effort will certain made.
If it succeeds it viii in itself be q bre9 up of
the Solid South and it may prevent Demo
Gratis from obtaining partisan control e qe~s
House of Representatives. The vote Of, 'Ation-
al party in the State is estimated at xpus-
and, and it is known that there will beil III ough
organization so that these votes will be counted.
All Republicans voting with the Nationals will
feel assured that their votes will tell, and if the
colored people are made aware of this fact they
Democracy The Nationals talking of nomi-
mating full Congressional ticket, and the names
so far mentioned are those of men OF undoubted
ability and popularity"
1t would by no means be surprising to find this
new movement or party consolidating into COM
manding power and proportions, not only in the
South but throughout our whole country before the
next Presidential contest comes off.

American Machines I'm Paris.

The American threshing machines
on exhibition at Paris are splendid
specimens OF workmanship, and they
fairly astonish the elegant Parisians.
The Echo Agricole, OF Paris, speaks
of them in the following compliment
tary terms: To see these threshing
machines constructed with perfect
taste as to shape, and with richness
In the materials employed, true spec
linens Of cabiuet work and inlaying;
these reapers and mowers, where all
the metallic portions shine like sill
Yer, one does not imagine himself in
the midst Of apparatus destined for
work which is reputed vulgar, such
as cutting the wheat or moving the
grass, but in a store OF enormous
iewelry and among true works Of art.
Never, In any country, have been
seen such grace and splendor. II by
the magnificence of the machine we
are to Judge OF the character OF the
workman who would be inclined to
suppose the American farmer to be
equally fine, walking the earth, not in
blouse and wooden shoes, as with us
but in full dress and with hands
gloved."

An Unfortunate Man.

A Portsmouth man was going east
with his wife last week. and the train
started off very suddenly while he
was talking with his friends. He
grabbed q woman, chucked her on
the train, jumped after her, and away
they went, fifty miles an hour, with
his wife shrieking and tearing her
hair on the platform, and a woman
he never saw before going into high
pressure Mysteries on the car, calling
him a monster, and yelling Save
mel" BY terrible mistake he had
got hold Of the wrong woman, and
the conductor, refusing to listen to
his explanations, kicked him out OF
the car, the brakeman chucked him
In to the ditch, the Sheriff rist him,
before he was half way back to town,
and put handouts on him; and, when
at last he got home he saw his busi-
ness partner holding his wife on his
lap and telling her that there were
men in the world who loved her much
better than her faithless husband
ever did. He says the next time he
travels he will walk.--LelcistO,cra

Thought It Made No Difference.

"That tenon does not fit the NOR
tise by quarter OF an inch" said an
employer TO young carpenter who
had just begun to work for him."
Il thought that for a garden gate
you would not be particular, and 1t
would make no difference" answered
the young man.
But it did make a difference. 1t
made just the difference between the
young carpenter having a steady
summer job at good wages and hav-
ing his time unoccupied on his hands.
The employer found no further
fault; but when the gate was finished
he paid the maker without another
word and dismissed him. The next
day there was another man in his
place. He happened to be a man
who thought it made difference how
everything was done; he always did
his best; and he kept his situation to
the end OF the season.
So it happens. Frequently some
little thing, which was not expected
to attract attention, is noticed by
some one to whom the excellence of
the work has commended itself, and
the man who has made painstaking
the rule of all his labor, is surprised
by a sudden and unlocked for acces-
sion of good fortune. He has been
brought into note by some inconsid-
cred trifle, which was we'll done mere
ly because it was his habit to do
everything as we'll as possible.
On the other hand, many man
who is lamenting his Ill fortune. and
don't know what to attribute 1t to-
owes it to some such carelessness in
the way Of doing his work as that
which doomed fhe young carpenter
to summer Of profitless idleness.
Men are by no means always told
by what particular act they are
judged; but any good performance is
always liable to make, and any bad
performance is always liable to mar
fortune.

A COmical Paris Scene.

Marie b. was sitting on the side
walk in front OF a restaurant, slipping
a cup of coffee, when stranger step
ped up and dipped his forefinger in
the cup OF coffee. which the lady had
before her. The incident aroused all
the vindictive fury OF which the sex
is capable. Without moments hes
itation she took up the cup and
dashed its contents at the head OF
the practical joker. Unluckily, the
aim was not so good as the intention,
and the coffee instead OF descending
on the coat of the ill-bred fellow who
had offered the insult, fell upon the
fair form and light dress Of Amelia
", who happened to he passing at
the moment Thereupon ensued be-
tween the two women wrangle,
compared with which any alteration
between the original aggressor and
the offended coffee -drinker would
have been mere bagatelle. Finally
when a great crowd had assembled,
and the debate instead Of coming to
an end grew hotter, the disputants
were led to the poste to explain them
selves before the commissary. He
asked for the original offender, who
had plenty Of opportunity for esca-
ping while the combat ragged between
the two Amazons; and as this impor-
tant person was not to be found, dis
missed the case.-London Globe.

has ever attempted to approach it in
its equipment of Pullman hotel and
sleeping coaches. 1t alone, Of all the
western roads has the celebrated
hotel cars, and on this line only can
the traveller between Chicago and the
Missouri river procure the comforts
and luxuries that these cars alone
can furnish. Other lines may talk Of
dining cars, and sixteen-wheel
coaches, but not one OF them can
offer you a Pullman or any other
form of hotel car. These cars COM
bine great luxury with the greatest
obtainable comfort, and at no increase
in expense over the common, old
fashioned and ordinary sleeping car.
The marvel OF those that travel on
them is to know how the company
can afford to run them and charge no
more for berths than is charged in
the old-fashioned sleeper. The an
swer is found in the great volume Of
travel this road is carrying. The
thousands flock to its lines where the
hundreds seek its competitors. We
are sure that no one who has once
seen these cars would ever use any
other il travelling in the direction
they run.
They are not for the exclusive use
OF the rich, but are just as comforta-
BILE and elegant for the poorer travel
er-costing to occupy these cars, no
more than does the occupancy Of the
old-fashioned sleeper, no one need,
for fear Of expense. be prevented
from using them. They have become
@the rage" so to speak, with the Cal
ifornians. and have attracted the ma
jority of that class Of travel.
If you are about to travel east or
west between Chicago and Council
Bluffs, Omaha, Denver or San Fran
cisco, it will pay you to see that you
get your tickets by the Chicago &
North Western railway. At some
future time we may give you further
ideas about this great road.-The

Had Him There.


That was a capital answer made by
a hard money man and Democrat
at Portland, Me-, to a Greenbacker
who had declared that no paper
money ever was redeemable in gold
and silver. Said this fool: @You
start bank and issue 100000 In
bills and keep on hand only $4,000 In
coin to redeem your bills; how can
you call that redemption?" To which
the sensible Democrat replied that
there are over forty thousand people
in Portland, all Of whom will some
time need collins, @but we have NO
need Of forty thousand collins con-
stantly on hand"

What Is q Trunk Liue I

The readers OF the newspapers OF
the day constantly see mention made
Of Trunk Line railroads. but compar-
atively few fully understand what is
intended by the designation. Some
three or four reilroad lines running
westward from the Atlantic seaboard.
are sometimes not wrongly called
Trunk Lines, as they form the main
arteries OF traffic toward the West.
II any railroad 10 the country de-
serves or is entitled to the name of a
grand trunk line, it Is the Chicago &
North Western railway. The COM
pany operating this great line now
controls more miles OF railway than
any other In America, IL not in the
world. 1t Is by all odds the most i'm
portant line of railroad in any way
connected with Chicago. No other
road running out of Chicago carries
anything like as many passengers or
hauls anything like the volume OF
freight that is transported over this
road. 1t alone runs In and out OF
Chicago every day In the year, near
ly as many passenger trains as all the
other Chicago roads put together.
As 1t is with passenger trains so 1t Is
with freight-it not unfrequently
brings into Chicago fifteen hundred
loaded freight cars In a single day,
and il it does not bring In thousand
cars its managers think 1t is doing
poorly. Forty to fifty passenger
trains daily, leave and arrive at its
depot at Chicago. OF suburban pas
sengers 1t carries more than all the
other roads that run to or from Chi
cago. These are facts that can be es-
tablished by any one wishing to do
so. No road but the very best could
do the business this great line does.
It's track Is Of the heaviest steel rail,
and is kept In constant repair by the
constant vigilance OF an army OF
track men. and Is patrolled day and
night the year through. for the double
purpose OF keeping everything con-
nected with it In perfect condition,
and for the entire safety OF its patrons
who are travelling over it.
No road anywhere can show a su-
perior track, finer coaches, stronger,
swifter or better locomotive engines
and no other road west Of Chicago

THE DESERTED ISLAND.

A rich and charitable man wanted
to make one Of his slaves happy. he
gave him his liberty, and caused ship
to be equipped with many valuable
goods for his use.
Go" said his master to him, "and
sail with this ship to foreign coun-
try, and all the gain which you OBJ
tain on these goods shall be yours. +"
The slave set out; but scarcely had
he got afioat when a violent storm
arose, which tossed the vessel against
a cliff so violently that it became a
wreck. The precious goods sank in
the sea, all his mates perished, and
he only saved himself with great
difficulty, by reaching the shore Of
an island.
Hungry. naked, and helpless, he
proceeded further inland, when he
perceived, afar of, large city, out
Of which a crowd Of inhabitants came
to meet him, with enthusiastic cries.
Prosperity to our king" they
called out to him, and placed him In
magnificent carriage. and led him
to the city.
On reaching the royal palace, he
was dressed in an ermire robe, a
crown was placed on his head, and he
was made to ascend the throne. The
mobiles gathered round him, and
pr0strating themselves before him,
took the oath Of obedience to the
king In the name Of all the people.
The new king, at first, thought this
splendor was a beautiful dream, till
the continuation OF bis happiness dis
perssd all doubts that the wonderful
event was really true.
Il cannot comprehend" he said to
himself, one day, what has blinded
the eyes OF this wonderful nation to
elect a poor stranger their king
They do not know who I am, do not
question me whence I come, but place
me on the throne. What a singular
custom this isl"
Thus he meditated, and became sc
curious to know the reason OF his
elevation, that he decided to ask one
Of the mobiles. who seemed apparent.
