 from onr memory whc the pres ut is 'satisfaetory and the future promising
 One morning tho lookout than in tho town of Rugen algnalled lleet Of ships in the onlng, They were men-of-wnr, carrying the French ilag. "The fr'nch are eomingl' people shouted to elch other "They arc going to land !"
 Firmin Bonurd heard lt. "The Frenth arc comingl" rang in his cars like the boom Of m alann-gun. Il toldhim thlt he was lost man, Nevertheless, U thought struck him which relieved his heart by . glimmerol hope.
 Iie ran home, put on his uniform, seized his arms, and mounted guard on the very spot where. five years before, be had been mihtentionally abandoned. Meanwhile, boats full of soldiers rowed towards the hilook. In the fore-part of one of the boats was a black and white poodle. As it approached the beach, the creature parked with joy. In spite of his anxiety Firmin's eyes filled with tears as he recognized his old friend capucln. The dog unable to master his impatience, jumped into the sea and swan to shore.
 As soon as the boats had come within earshot. Firmin "made ready" and shouted at the top of his voice, "Qui yiye2" ---.r
 "Qui vive, yourself" said the occu- pants of the first boat, which was filled with officers, composing Marshal Da- voust's staff. "Who are you? And what are you doing here?"
 "I anna sentinel, keeping guard.",
 A pretty sentinel! How long have you been on guard?"
 nFiye years. .s.-
 "It is time you come down, then" shouted the officers laughing.
 When Firmin descended from his hill, Capucin ran to meet him half-way, bark ing with joy, and jumping into his arms.
 "Poor Capucin, have it all your own way this time.a Do whatever you like. Dirty me, tear my clothes; Ishan'tsend you away. ought to have made bet ter. return for your attempt to serve me" "
 Followed by the faithful dog, Firmin joined his former comrades He gave a plain account of what had happened By lucky chance, the corporal, who had forgotten him, and who had since been promoted, belonged to Marshal Davoust's staff. He received his old eomrade with open arms. Firmin, in return, invited his eoumtrymen to the farm, where he entertained them with liberal hospitality. The adventure reached Marshal Davousts ears. He laughed at Firmins strata gem, and pre- sented' him with discharge drawn up Tn due form. II should not like the brave fellow" he said, ito appear be- fore court-martial, after having kept guard so long," :. |
 Firmim continued farmer. He had large family, who at present fill the biggest and most important offices in the island. They are commonly known as the Sentiners Family. When the French finally left Rngen, Capucin re- mained. Like his master, lie forgot his military tastes, and devoted himself ex- clusively to farming. - At tite Year Round

DON'T BE DECEIVED.

The Republicans of Cumberland County
must no. allow themselves to be deceived
with the idea that the converts to the Green
back party are largely from the Democrats
This is not the true state of affairs. AS was
stated in the PIONEER editorially few
weeks since, the per centage of gain to the
new organization is about six Republicans
to one Democrat. We have it from the
best authority (all other reports to the con-
trary) that the Greenback vote in the town.
ship of Deerfeld will not be as large as it
was last Fall, and that very few Democrats
are taking part the new movement The
Democratic majority in Deerfeld will not
be materially reduced, while the Republi-
can vote will be cut down to small figures
The policy appears to be to get all the Re-
publicans possible into the third party by
keeping up terrible cheating on the gongs"
in Democratic neighborhoods, but privately
counselling members of that party to stick
to the old organization, while fooling the
Republicans. Every Republican, therefore,
who acts with the Greenback party this
Fall is simply casting a left-handed Demo-
cratic ticket. If the new party draws off
sufficient votes from the Republicans it will
guarantee the success of the Democracy,
and accomplish nothing for ITSELF Deer
field is but an illustration of what is being
done in other parts of the county. Some of
the Greenback leaders are now privately at
work in the interest of the Democrats,

Yellow Fever is creating great havoc in
the South. Nearly half the population of
Memphis, Tennessee, has left on account of
it. In New Orleans the number of deaths
has been very large. A novena or nine days
of prayer has been ordered in all the Cath
olic churches of that city for cessation of
the scourge. Bishop Elder, of Natchez,
directs the recital of daily prayer for the
averting of mortal sickness. The Democrat,
tomorrow, will publish an account of a re-
porter's visit to two tenement houses near
Poydras Market, and the sickening sights
there presented. The houses were occupied
principally by italian chicken dealers In
one house sixteen persons had been carried
out dead during the last two weeks and in
the other ten. No. 292 Poydras street was
almost deserted, and the beds on which the
sick died remained intact. In the neighbor-
hood over eight have died during the last
forty eight hours. The house of the Ital-
lans was almost deserted, there being in it
only one sick man and an attendant. In
the yards of the two houses there was
great mass of decaying vegetable matter
and decomposing refuse.

The Supreme Court of the United States
has authoritatively affirmed the right of a
legislature to pass laws prohibiting the
manufacture and sale of Intoxicating liquors.
1t lays down the broad principle that ''if
the public safety or the public morals re.
quire the discoDtinuance of any manufac-
ture or traffic, the hand of the legislature
cannot be staid from providing for its dis
continuance by any incidental inconvenience
which individuals or corporations may suf-
fer. All rights are held subject to the po-
lice power of the State" This decision
settles question which has been widely
mooted, and disposes affectually of the the
ory that prohibitory enactments are inva-
sions of the natural rights of the citizen.
But the efficacy of these enactments in abat-
ing the evils of intemperance is still an
open question.

Under the law of March 9, 1878, provid-
ing for the payment of pensions to the
soldiers of the war of 1919, the Commission
er of Pensions is making rapid payment of
the claims filed under the law. During the
last three months 2, 800 claims have been
filed. The majority of these are from the
Southern States. The act of 1871 barred
out all claimants to pension growing out
of the war of 1912 in case the claimant
fought against the Government during the
late civil war or his heirs were disloyal, but
by the latter act the fact of disloyality dur
ing the rebellion is ignored. The Pension
Office has stopped the printing of it's checks
at the Government printing Office, as the
work on them was of such character that
they could be easily counterfeited. The
Bureau of Engraving and Printing now
does the working on Government fibre pa
per. About 100000 of these checks are
used every quarter, payments being made
to more that 250,000 pensioners.

THE ONE CENTRAL IDEA

The Okolona (Miss.) States exclaims:
NO! The black has no right under the
sun to vote. He has never had the right
The ballot came into his possession by illegal
means, and 1t must be taken from him. This
is Southern sentiment to-day.
Again it declares:
The Black Amendments were never rati-
fed by the people of the South-NEVER.
They were rammed down our throats by
Yankee devils, at the point of the bayonet.
Bear this fact IN mind, ye men Of Missis-
sipps, and saoear that you aoiH zeaue nothing
umdone to rect!fy the aoromg.
The ''fruits,' the Legitimate results" Of
the war must be destroyed! The amend
ments must be repealed, the brutal rule of
the old oligarchy must be re-established in a
revival of slavery, and the Northern or loyal
States, be compelled to liquidate, in the
form of thousands of millions of fraudulent
rebel claims, losses or expenses incurred by
the Confederates during the rebellion, when
secession will follow. That is the one grand
central idea of the Democracy, North and
South. God save the Republic.

COMMUNIST KEARNEY,

Dennis Kearney, the California agitator,
is going around the country making infam-
atory speeches. "Dennis'' is one of those
individuals of foreign birth, who have
brought to the free soil of America the
prenicious principles of communism. La
boring men who love their country, their
families and homes, should keep aloof from
such blatant demagogue. He belongs to
class of individuals who would if in power,
re-enact in this Republic the bloody scenes
of the French revolution. Here are speci-
men sentences Of his late speech at Lynn,
